terrible encounter in Pennsy lvanm, but we advis,
our readers not too hastily to believe that the wal
Is ended. We indeed hope that Lee will soor
be compelled to Eight another battle Of great dis.
advantage, and suffer defeat more crushing thar

done he has large army of veteran soldiers who

An EXPLANATION NEEDED. Some weeks
since an editorial apl cared in the Argus and
Patriot making an assault on the Watchmdn for
the alleged disloyaly OF the latter paper several
years ago The Hdtchman Immediately showed
that the assault was wholly groundless, and false
and short time afterwards charged the au-
thorship Of the article upon 5. b. Colby, Esq, of
this village, then a member of the Union State
Committee. This charge Mr.. Colby, we regret
to Say, has not yet publicly denied.
Two weeks ago the Rutland Courier charged
| Mr.. Colby with the authorship of two articles in
the .qrgus and Patriot Of May 2sh last, and two
articles in the same paper Of June 4th. In one
Of these articles Mr., c. is stated to have used
the following language
Yet some Republicans and aboilionists, her
in Vermont, claim 10 be the model and standard
o. loyalty Abolition loyalty in Vermont We
lack tor words OF our oan to express its absurd
hypocrisy "
We expected Mr.. C. would at once deny this
charge puOIcy, but We lhInk ne mas not YET uohe
SO. Both this article in the Courier, and the pre-
yious one in the Hdtchman we think called for an
answer, and it is not impossible that both Of them
may be believed 10 Mr.. Cs prejudice unless he
pleads not guilty to them, or puts in extenuatng
circumstances. lie is now publicly acting with the
Union party in the State, was pesentatits Conven'
ton at Burlington and made a speech and is q
member Of the Union State Committee and We
think il Is due to those wi whom be is now act
ing politically that he should either disavow the
article and the sentiments charged to him, or
at least say that be does not noe hold to suct
sentiments, and is no longer allied to the party
that is assaug the loyalty Of Republican news
papers, and Republican legislators.

LOCAL MATTERtS4

CoNcERr.-Bradbury's beautiful Oratorio
OF Esther was produced by the Singers Of
Ottawa, under the training Of Mr.. M. H.
HAvEXHILL, in most creditable style at
Plymouth Church on Thursday and FRI
day evenings of this week. The singers
appeared to be perfectly trained in their
parts; there was no failure in the least
punctilio by any one, while the mant fine
solos and duets which occur through she
piece, were generally rendered with
precision, distinctness of enunciatioa. and
operate spirit that really surprised us
The danger of in rendering sacred music
of this kind, is overacting; yet we noticed
no breach Of propriety in that respect,
while there was no unpleasant stiffness.
There was, in the start, an appearance Of
fright on the part of one or two Of tho
singers, and a consequent want of fullness
and distinctness of enunciatIon, but this
wore off as the concert progressed The
pianist, Miss. SESSIONS, certainly deserves
all praise for the promptness and perfect
accuracy with which she performed her
laborious part; while a like need ofpraise
is due the to orchestra, whose fine sympho-
mics added great by to the general effect.
The costumes, which were quite elaborate,
were gotten up IN good taste, and the
whole machinery, although gotten up IN
evident haste, was unexceptionable.-
Taken as whole, it was one of the finest
musical entertainments VIC have ever had
in Ottawa, and we hope its financial sue.
cess has been such as to lead to new enter.
prises OF the same sort.
