HoUsE.-Mr. Blair of Missouri introduc-
ed bill providing for the occupation of

Your committee earnestly hope that
there may be full attendance at the pri-

ELLsLER's ATHENEUM.--Therew was avery
full house at the benefit of Mrs. Effie Ellsler
last night, who wins fresh laurels at each
representation of the "Sea of Ice" The
farce last night set the house in the gayest
good humor. 1t could not well fail to do so,
with two such artists in the principal comic
characters as Mrs. Dickson and Mr.. Lewis.
The "Sea of Ice" will be reproduced to-
night. The subordinate no less than the
principal characters, are well represented.
We should not forget little Effie Ellsler,
who, in the first and second acts, appears as
the child Marie, with truly childlikc art
lessness and grace. Mr.. Dickson, as the
sea captain and husband of Louise, plays
his part well. OF course, of Mr.. Lewis, as
q sailor, often in peril for himself and those
he esteems, we could expect only the serio-
comic, and this he gives SO literally that
one cannot avoid laughing, while inclined
to weep.
As the weather is growing warmer and
the "Sea of Ice" will be likely soon to melt
away, all should hasten to see it, and see it
often, lest they should regret their neglect
when it is too late. 4
After the drama, to-night's entertainment
will close with the laughable farce Of "Nur-
sey Chickweed."

WHAT THE SOLDIERS SAY-PATRIoTIc
REsoLUTIoNs.-The following resolutions
signed by Samuel Voorhes, r. L. Franks
and thirty-six Others we find in the last
number of the Guernsey County Jefer-
sonidn: &ft r.
Resolced, That we the undersigned MEM
bers of company e, 122d o. V. l., do hereby
pledge our sacred honor and our lives for
the support, protection and maintenance OF
the Constitution of the United States; the
preservation of the Union and the enforce.
ment of the laws in all the States.
Resolced, That there should be vigorous
and effectual prosecution of the war, not
for the purpose of conquest, subjugation OF
the changing of the institutions of the
South, but for the purpose Of suppressing
the rebellion and the restoration of the
Union.
RESOLVED, That in the suppression Of the
rebellion and the restoration of the Union,
the several States now in rebellion should
be reinstated on perfect equality with the
other States, when the respective govern
ments of said rebellious States shall be prop
erly administered in obedience to the Con-
stitution and laws of the United States, by
the loyal citizens thereof, and those therein
who may again return to their allegiance to
the government of the United States.
Resotued, That the military power vested
In the President as 'Commander-in-C Chic
of the army" by the Constitution of the
United States, being a power created by the
government, is not superior to the govern
ment, and is improperly used when the
rights and privileges guaranteed to all 10y.
al citizens by said Constitution are in the
least restricted or abridged by said military
power.
Resolued, That we hail with joy the speedy
restoration of the Union, the quick return
of an honorable peace, the end of sectional
strife, and the downfall of all sectional par
ties; and to attain those holy objects, 1t Il
imperitfvely necessary that there should bt
achange of the present Administration.
sResolued, That in Gen. George B. McClel.
Ian, we have brave, able and successful
General, a true devoted Union man, re-
liable statesman, and a meritorious, trust
