OPERA HoUsE.-The weather was 80 un-
pleasant last evening that we were sur
prised to see so large an audience at the
Opera House. But they were wellrepald
for the visit. The beautiful drama of "Fan-
chon" we have often seen played, but never
better than it was last night. Miss Will
liams in her impersonation of Fanchon ex-
celled herself excellent as she has proved
to be in other characters. She was we'll
sustained by the rest Of the company, and
the piece went off amid the hearty plaudts
of the audience.
Tonight the dramatized Ledger story of
the "IIidden Hand" will be Produced
Miss Williams will play Capitola, and will
give the character all the fire and animation
it calls for. We look for an excellent rep
resentation of this exciting and popular
drama. The entertainment will close with
a new farce" Honest John the Milkman "
Honest John by Mr.. Vincent.
Tomorrow evening Miss Williams takes
benefit, when choice bill will be offered.

NEW YORK, May 10.-A special to the
Times from Washington the 9th says: The
arrest of JEFF. Davis Is now looked upon by
the military authorities as certain. In ad-
ditionto the particulars of his whereabouts,
telegraphed last night, 1t is now known
that Davis, and the two brigades of caval-
ry-with him, are so completely enveloped
by Stoneman, Wilson and Grierson, that
escape is impossible except as q. disguised
and solitary fugitive. The latest intelli-
gence renders it probable that Grierson,
who commands the cavalry under General
Candy, will succeed in capturing Davis in
his flight across Alabama.
The march of the honeward bound ar
mics continues with unabated vigor.-
Meade's veteran columns had hardly made
their grand march through the conquered
capital of rebeldom before the camp-lires OF
Sherman's legions lighted up the banks OF
the James. The advance of Meade's troops
was to-day in the vicinity of Louisa G. Ii, land
is expected to encamp near Alexandria by
Saturday night. Sherman's four corps are
expected to pass through Richmond to-
morrow, and they will press the Army oI
the Potomac hard on the homeward march
Sheridans cavalry left Petersburg yester-
day, to move overland to Alexandria. The
main part of the force will come to this
city, and probably undergo reorganization
at once. One brigade of cavalry will be
left at Lynchburg, another at Danville
and another at Petersburg, which will pa
troll the country, preserve order and punish
guerrillas and outlaws. ..,7

slavery. 1t attempted to found its subsis-
tance on national crime, and had met the
deserved fate of those who set themselves
against the laws of God and man. The
North had been fighting for common
country, which they would share, but which
they would not allow to be torn asunder.
Step by step the North rose to the height Of
the great and holy argnmenton which their
cause was founded. Each delay. each de-
feat, seemed to make them resolve tirmer
and higher any purer. If anything could
strengthen the States in their trust, itwould
be the deep-felt, spontaneous and universal
sympathy which was now travelling to
them from Europe.
Mr.. j. B. Rollin, M. p seconded Mr..
Stansfield, he said he now stood in Parlia-
ment as the successor of Richard Cobden,
whose object it. was, equally with that of
Lincoln, dignity labor. Lincoln destroyed
slavery in America. 1t should be their wish
to destroy surfflom at home, and he trusted
the result Of the conflict in America would
be to give an impetus to the cause of reform
in Europe. .
Mr.. Baxter, M. r., supported the resolu-
tion. All the events of the last four years
dwindled into insgnificance before the
issues involved in the great contest in
| America. Not only was the great question
of slavery involved in the contest, but the
| question of Constitutional Government all
through the world. He did not believe a
great cause depended on single life, and
felt confident that the American people
would bring to triumphant issue the pol
icy and principles of Abraham Lincoln.
Mr.. Caird, member Of Parliament, moved
that copies of the foregoing resolutions be
placed in the hands ofMr. Adams, for trans
mission to the President of the United
States, Mrs. Lincoln and Mr.. Seward. lie
paid warm compliment to the American
Minister, whose moderation and firmncss
and conciliation had been the means OF pre-
serving peace between the two countries.
The resolutions were supported by var
ious members of Parliament, and Rev. New
man Hall and Mason Jones. Cyrus w
Field who was called for and received with
great applause, thanked the chairman and
the meeting on behalf of the American
people for them deep sympathy with the
thirty millions on the other side of the At
lantic, who were mourning for the death Of
Abraham Lincoln. .nt.f

Arrival of Troops at Richmond
The Mexican Emigration Excite

The Mexican E,migra ton Excite
ment. l...s. y
New YORK, May 10.-A special to the
Herald from Richmond says: The streets of
Richmond were on Saturday, the 9th, the
scene OF a magnificent and inspiring mill
tary pageant illustrative of the pow er and
grandeur of our great republic and the vaIor
and indomitablc perseverance of it's volun-
tary defenders. Two corps of the Army of
the Potomac, the I'd and 9th, OH that day
enjoyed the highly appreciated privilege of
marching through the city towards the cap
ture of which their brave efforts for four
years have been directed, on their triumphal
route to Washington. The I'd and 5th corps
were received in Richmond by the oath
corps, and the moving column presented a
splendid array of $4,000 men, whose steady
lines, faultless marching, their bayonets
glistening In the sunlight battle-torn and
war-worn flags, and all the paraphernalia
of great army, formed spectacle not soon
to,be forgotten by beholders. 1t is expect
ed that the march from Richmond to Wash
ington will occupy about ten or twelve days.
The H. raid says the Mexican emigration
excitement increases. The Office for enroll
ment is unable to accommodate the appli-
cants, and two more offices are to be opened.
There is great rush of discharged army
officers and soldiers. The Mexican General
Ortega is highly delighted with the pros
poets. It is said the West has subscribed
large sums of money to the enterprise, and
that 25,000 men are to be raised there to be
commanded by Gen Rosecrans. fr
