officers of the Library Association and invited
guests, and were received with the utmost
politeness by Captain Webster and his efficient
and gentlenanly subordinate officers. The
Collector of the port, Marshal of the State,
Gen. Dow, Hon. John Lynch, and several 9TH
er distinguished citizens were on board; also
ex-Goy. A. P. Morrill,, ex Mayor Bowman, of
Bangor, and others whose names do not occur
to US.
The steamer went out White Head passage
and returned through Hog Island passage,
reaching the wharf at five o'clock. Mr.. Col

From Washington.

w ASHlNGION, INOts %O'
Judge Bates resignation as Attorney Gener-
al, will take effect on Wednesday.
The trial OF Col. North, Amos Jones, ano
Cohen, charged with acting contrary TO law
in the matter of obtaining the New fork
soldiers vote, will not be resumed before the
9th of December.
A statement appeared in one or more OF to-
days papers, enormously attributed to the
Washington agent, and reported for the As
ISOLATED Press. that Commander Collins, had
been ordered to return to Bahia with his ouosi
prize. and her officers and crew, and purport.
ing to give the action of the government up.
on that subject, with other assumed facts in
the same connection.
No such telegram originated with the agent
and the eporter OF the Associated Press but
there is the best authority for saying that all
statements to the effect, that differences OF
opinion have arisen in the Cabinet concern
ing the case of the pirate Florida, or that a
decision has been made for or against her
restitution are without foundation; no action
by the government has been taken the case,
and no discussion of it has been held.
The Navy Department authorizes the fol-
lowing statement:-T original order for the
Wachusetts upon her arrival at Hampton
Roads was to proceed to Boston for repairs,
taking with her prisoners captured on the
Florida, to be consigned to Fort Warren. Be-
fore the order reached the vessel the prisoners
had been sent to Point Lookout, and in day
or two were transferred by army authorities to
the old Capitol prison. They were immedi-
ately ordered back to Point Lookout to be
transferred to the Wachusett, which at once
sailed for Boston, arriving there on Friday
last. The prisoners doubtless ere this are in
Fort Warren.

New nitr Hall this Evening.


The great event of the week, the Sons of
Temperance Festival, takes place at the New
City Hall this evening, and we predict one of
the largest and most fashionable audiences
that has assembled on any like occasion this
winter. Two very valuable, and much need
ed articles, are to be given away as presents
VIA set of ladies Fitch Furs, and beaver
Pattern Overcoat. The tickets are fifty cents,
including chance for the prizes.
Heretofore the music for dancing in the new
City Hall has been Quadrille Band, which is
not heavy enough for so large hall, and the
managers on this occasion have secured the
services of grand Orchestral Band, which,
no doubt, will be found great improvement.
The favorite musician, j. W. Raymond will
act as prompter. We advise those who are
intending to be present,-and who does not
to secure their tickets during the day, at the
places stated in the advertisement.
