PORTLAND TURNvEREIN.-Thi Associa-
ton has fitted up rooms in the Morton Block,
and last evening an entertainment was given
to large number of ladies and gentlemen who
had been invited to witness it.
The first performance was by Messrs. Saw
yer, Russell, Davis, and Shaw on the pangym-
nasticon. Then followed a broad sword ex-
ercse by Professor Ross. Messrs. Howe and
Bachelor then performed on the trapez.--
This was succeeded by exercise with the clubs
by Prof Ross and Mr.. Cole. Then came exer-
cises on the horizontal bar by the whole class.
Prof. Ross then gave an exercise with the
sabre. The performances were concluded by
exercises on the parallel bars by the class.
The performances throughout exhibited
vast strength and power of muscle. The
audience testified their pleasure in repeated
applause. We have seen performers at
theatres who could not come up to those Of
last evening, notwithstanding they were
heralded with loud sounding praises Of their
extraordinary feats. The Portland Turn
verein could learn some Of these fellows q
good lesson,
Prot. Ross, who is engaged to teach in spar
ring and fencing, received great applause for
his evolutions.
After the performances of the Turnverein
were concluded, dancing commenced, in which
large portion ofthe invited company joined.
We congratulate the Association upon get
ting into such good quarters. They have got
every thing fixed up in good shape, and it is
evident they are improving themselves in
health and strength.

Last Night but Two of the Opera.

The success OF the Campbell & Castle
Opera Troupe" has been quite unprecedented.
Full houses have succeeded each other, com
posed of the elite OF our city, and we can con-
graduate the managers on the satisfaction
each opera has afforded, and on the admirable
style in which they have been presented.
Tonight the Rose Of Castillo" will be
given for the first time, and as it Is the work
of that eminent composer BALFE, we may
safely anticipate feast of melody. The story
of the Opera is fail of interest, and is filed
with intrigues, DISCUSSES, love, and all that
contributes to make up Spanish romance.
We will not anticipate the curiosity OF our
readers by unwilling the DISCUSSES of the young
"Queen OF Castillo" and Manuel" the pre-
tended Muleteer, nor will we expose the plots
of "Don Pedro" and his conspiring associates.
We will only say that we feel assured that in
the hands Of Miss Fanny Stockton, Mr.. Castle,
and Mr.. Campbell, the principal characters
will receive full justice. Miss Fowler, Mr..
White and Mr.. Birch each have prominent
parts, and win greatly add to the general ef-
feet The Opera is said to abound in musical
gems, and we fully expect rich entertain
ment

M. L. ASSOCIATIONS FOURTH LECTURE
This lecture will be delivered this evening in
new City Hall by Rev. DR.. Bellows of New
York. The subject, California. DR.. Bellows
has recently passed several months in the
Golden State and studied its history, pro-
gress, institutions, various departments Of
business, natural resources and the present
state Of society. He will give US a glowing
account Of that Eldorado. We expect to see
crowded house on this occasion. The lee
turer Yields graphic pen and possesses an
eloquent tongue, SO lock out for something
rich, rare and racy. The phrase, secure seats
early" has become as familiar as household
words, yet there is sometimes much meaning
In it, and oftentimes some very useful and val
liable hints which proverbially slow people
need. Procrastination is the thief of time, and
we are sometimes compelled to utter the APP
palling words "Too LATE"

From Geor0ia-1fovensenfs of Gen. Sherman.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 80.
Some recently exchanged prisoners have
reached this city. They say that when they
arrived at Savannah from Milan, they were
kindly treated and furnished with the best
food that could be procured. The people in
timated that there were forces under Beaure-
gard and Johnston at Macon and Augusta to
oppose Sherman, but they did not believe that
he would encounter them, or that the military
authorities would in time decide where to
concentrate their forces. At Savannah there
we're only 1900 men, who could make but
feeble resistance.
The Savannah Republican of the oath con-
tains contradictory statements as to Sherman's
movements, particularly as to crossing the
Oconee River. 1t says the column operating
on the Georgia road, kept on the western side
and struck off in the direction of Macon, as
though contemplating junction with forces
in that vicinity.
A strong force of cavalry is following Sher-
man, and it is not impossible that Forrest may
ere long hang like a wolf on his rear and flank

Hoods Movements.

NEW YORK, Nov. 80.
The Times Washington dispatch says
Hoods movement on Tennessee, seems to re-
veal the intention of making his way into East
Tennessee. The line on which he is moving
would indicate an attempt to turn Nashville
on the east, and make his way to join Brock
enridge. IL is believed he will then essay to
capture Knoxville, which will give him rail-
way communication with Lynchburg and
Richmond.
The successful issue of Sherman's move will
have severed communication between the t NO
main rebel armies, and Hoods present cam
paign seems to be directed toward securing
such communication by the line mentioned
Hoods army In this case would be In posi-
ton to join Lee, should this move become ad-
Visable.

A train arrived last night from Chattanooga
with few wounded and several rebel prison
ers, among the latter was Brig Gen. Young of
Cheathams.
There are breaks on the Chattanooga rail-
road, though the rebel cavalry are prowlng
near the line. A force of500 crossed the track
near Savuagee last night, fifteen miles south
of here.
The garrison at Shelbyvile were attacked
by body of rebel cavalry Monday, but after
some severe skirmishing the rebels retreated.
Skirmishing at the front is of daily occur

There is no change in Hoed's POSITION
In every skirmish SO far the Federals appear
to have had the advantage. Our forces have
evacuated Shelbyville, and it is now in the
hands of the rebels. Opinion is rife as to
Hoods movements. Ample preparations have
been made aud are making to defend Nash
vile should Hood attempt its capture.

NEW YORK, Nov. 80.
A letter from Morganzia, La, dated noon
Of the 18th, says the report that this garrison
was captured by the rebel Gen. Buckner, is a
wicked and malicious falsehood. No attack
has been made on this place, as Gen. Ullman
has always proved himself too wide awake
and too sleepless in his vigilance to be sur
prised, even were his soldiers not equally so.
Nothing would please this garrison better than
an attack by the rebels, and the chief fault
found by our officers and men is the nimble-
ness displayed by the rebels when our scout
ing parties and small reconnoisances appear
near their localities. Our officers and men
are in excellent health.
