Presentation to Prot. Oathoart When

Presentation to Prot. Oathcart When
it became known 10 the pupils Of the Central
High School that Prof c. W. H. Cathcart in
tended soon resigniug as Teacher in that in
stitution, preparatory to accepting the position
Of Commissioner OF Common Schools Tor the
State, to which he was elected last Fall, a
number Of the young ladies at once set about
getting up some proper testimonial of respect
to present TO their retiring preeeptor.
The matter was actively taken in hand by
Misses Marian Corp, Nellie Thomas, and Liz
zie Brown, who solicited from members Of the
school, their parents, and few personal
friends Of Prof c. the funds necessary TO pro.
cure the desired testimonial
1t was arranged for the presentation 10
come off yesterday afternoon in the Hall of
the High School, when the young ladies we're
engaged in rehearsing their singing; and ac-
cOrdingly, while the ladies' class was sing
ing one of their favorite pieces, committee
from an adjoining room approached Prof. c.,
who was seated on the platform, and Miss
Gregg made very pretty little speech pre-
paratory to handing over to him large aud
elegant silUer Pitcher, a silUer Cup, and set
Of silUer Ndpkinrings,
The surprise of the Professor was great
from the fact that he was unaware of the
honor which his pupils intended comforting
on him, and he was almost Disconnected at
first; but he accepted the testimonial with ap-
propriate remarks, thanking his pupils, feel
ingly, for this farewell token of their esteem,
and wishing them success and happiness
through long, and well spent lives
The occasion was one Of unusual agreeable
ness, and will be cherished to the close of
life by the Professor and his young friends
and others who were present
Mr.. Cathcart's connection with the Central
High School, which was for several years, and
was ever pleasant, has closed in order to give
him time to prepare for the duties Of bis new
and important public position. He retires
with the regret and respect Of his pupils, and
all with whom he was associated

waiting gun-boats to escort them to Nashville
They were hourly expecting to get of, and it
is probable that they are on their way back

The protracted delay at the mouth of the

Mrs. Stoddart performed the part of Mrs
Mildmay with pertness and aaiUete that
suited the character to charm. Mrs Fiske
as Mrs Sternhold depicted the strong minded
woman to the life. In fact, we do not hesitate
TO say that the comedy could not have been
much better performed in any of the principal
cities of the Union
The farce of Perfection concluded the
entertainment, and sent away every one
highly pleased with the evening amusements.
Tonight the performances will commence
with the Comic Drama in two Acts of

The Effect Abroad.

The effect of the recent elections abroad can
not fail to be excellent, in Strengthening the
Union cause and putting a damper on all inter
vention schemes. England and France have
proceeded greatly on the idea that the people
of the North we're getting tired OF the war.
growing weary of sustaining the Union and their
Government, we're beginning TO despair OF the
Republic, and were rapidly getting into thaf
mental aud moral condition which would incline
them to look leniently upon almost sny scheme
whether originating at home or abroad, which
should promise speedy cOnclusiOn-uO matte
10 what manner-tO the strife which was sWal-
lowing up their blood and their treasure.
To all these speculations Ohio and Pennsylva-
MIA have glOriOuslv answered. The people. Ia
stead of being tired OF the war aud dissatisfied
slth the management Of the National Govern
ment, have rallied around the President and HI
policy with more vehement emphasis than ever
before. They say to the National Government
and to the whole world that they stlli patriots.
still Union men, still determined 20 put dowu
the rebellion, and all ls a ders and sbettOrs, cOs
~hst il may and let the war last as long a. %

Practically, the North is asain unit. The
people are united again, and the Northern States

SLAVERY IN ARKANSAs-An ArkRnaaa letter
TO the st Louis Democrat says:
In this State, thanks to the President tho
slavery question is settled. All the Union men
and non shareholders in the State accept the
Proclamation As settled la~, and are glad Of it.
The slaveholding rebels had 90 much faith in its
virtue that they have fed the State with their
slaves 90 that the negro question 10 already set
led. There is only one thing TO fear II the
Governor commits the affairs Of this State TO
some conservative pro-slavery man Who viii
bob mob with the wealthy Shareholders aud in-
duce the hope in their minds that the Proclama-
zion is mere breath, sad that they will yet be
permitted to hold and own their slaves, then
this State will be lost to the Union Tor years 10
come, and the horrors of . guerrilla war, such ss
GOV desOlAses Missouri, will prevail in this
State.
As soon as the principal towns in the State
are governed, il will be safe 70 call on the peo-
pie TO elect delegates 10 a convention 70 form .
constitution. There is no earthly doubt but
that such a convention would undo ali that the
rebel convention did, and settle the efficacy Of
the Presidents Proclamation, by declaring in the
organic act OF the State that slavery Was Abol-
