tragic scenes on the plea that be had so perfectly
identified himself with the part as TO forget
he was William c, Macready, gentleman, and that
he knew himself only as Signor "Othello," Gene.

hearsal informed him that she had filed her hair
and clothing fall OF fish hooks, and he had hetter
be careful. The identity was broken. The truth
iR that the perfect Identification of the character is
all humbug, unless the actor as IN the case some
times OF the elder Booth, was unduly excited by
stimulants. Certainly, hOWeyer, there is a singu-
lar difference in the personal powers sometimes
when on the stage, from the same when on We
knew an amateur actor once who stammered fear
fully but whose elOcuti0n on the stage was ad-
mrabe, his enuneiabon especially being clear, dis
tnct, ana unhesitating. A famous English actress,
Mrs. Prichard, was exceedingly vulgar, talking
abouther silk "gogHd, and Il was said had never
read any part oi Macbeth except her own written
"lehgths." Yet her actions were perfection
combining the rendering Of scholar with the
manner Of a gentlewoman, and the port Of a
princess.

WASHINGTON, January 0.
The Navy Department to-day received
the following dispatches:
FLAG SHIP SAN JACINTo,
Key West December %. !
To Hon. G. Rtlles:
l have the qualification Of reporting .
very important service performed by the
blocksding force at st. Andrews Sound,
under command Of Acting Master VIM. R.
Browne, in destroying very extensive
and valuable quantity Of salt works, both
at Lake Ocols and 81. Andrews Bay.
There were six boilers at Loke Ocola, and
seven kettles made expressly for the pur-
pose, each holding 200 gallons. They were
in the practice of turning out l3O bushels
Of salt daily. Besides destroying these
boilers, large quantity Of salt was
thrown into the lake, two large fstboats
and six OK carts were demolished, and II
prisoners taken, who were paroled and
released on the 10th Of December.
Acting Ensign Edwin Cressy arrived at
st. Andrews Sound from the East Pass Of
Santa Rosa Sound with the stern-wheel
steamer Bloomer and her tender the sloop
Carolina, and having heard Of the eXpedi
tion to Lake Ocola placed his command al
the disposal of Acting Master Brown for
more extensive operations near st. An
drews. Accordingly three officers and
forty-eight men were sent from the Rest
less to the Bloomer and she proceeded tc
the West Bay, where the rebel salt works
were first destroyed, and which produced
400 bushels daily. At this place there
were twenty-seven buildings, twenty-five
large boilers and some 200 kettles, aver.
aging 200 gallons each, all of which were
destroyed, together with 5000 bushels o.
salt and some store houses containing somC
three months provisions. The whole was
valued at S500O00.
From this point the expedition pro
ceeded down the bay destroying priVsi'
salt works which lined each side for dis
tance Of seven miles, to the number Of l9S
different establishments, averaging two
boilers and two kettles each, together will
large quantity Of salt; 507 kettles wert
dug up and rendered useless, and over 10(
buildings were destroyed, together will
q wagons and five large fat boats. Tht
entire damage to the enemy is estimated
by Acting; Master Browne at $SOO,OOO.
those works, svailed themselves OF thj
opportunity to escape, and were Of grea
service in pointing out the places wher
the kettles were concealed.
Acting Master Brown, in the mean
while, in the bark Restless, ran up t
one hundred yards Of the town Of ST
Andrews, which had been reported by de
serters to him as being occupied by mil
itary force for the last ten months, an
commenced shelling the place. The sol
diers made a speedy retreat to the wood
The town was fred by the third shell, an
thirty-tWo houses we're soon reduced
ashes. No resistance was offered through
out the whole affair. Respectfully

The DeutrucliOn ofCavnIry.

General Hslleck's statement Of the num-
Der Of cavalry horses destroyed by our ar
my will strike everybody with sstonish-
ment. A ra.mount for the whole service
once in two months is the rate at which
our horses ere used up, by want Of skill
and often oulpsble neglect Of the animals.
-Four hundred and thirty-fve thousand
horses will be needed for the coming year
Il the evil remains unchecked. The enor-
nous waste Of horses was one Of the points
which wss urged quite early by those who
wished to see our volunteer cavalry force
kept within marrow limits. The sdmira-
bic service done by this force will out
weigh is immense and needless expense
In the opinion Of the country. The i'm
mense consumption Of horses, however, is
sn evidence which is felt outside the army
or the Treasury. The stOekbreeders de-
clare that II it goes on it will permanently
injure the breed Of horses in the country
The horses Of mature age are being taken
up by the Government so fast that youD {
horses are put 10 work too early, the re
suit Of which will ultimately be seen II
the diminution Of the average size.
