.JefE Davis IIOvements-Inter
Between the Mexican Minister
and President johnson.

New YORK, April 25.-The Tribune's
Washington special says it is the opinion of
well-intormed gentlemen that JEFF. Davis
will be able to re-organize force of about
10000 troops in Texas, with which he will
move into Mexico in the event of being
pressed by the Union armies.
The Mexican Minister had very lengthy,
and it is said most important private inter
view with the President to-day. General
lOrtega has been sent for and is on the way
here from st. Louis, and his arrival is hour
ly eXpected-a circumstance imparting
additional significance to to-day's audi

THE FIRE ON SATURDAY NIGHT.-Inves-
LEGATIONS, since the fire on Saturday night.
by which the carriage mandatory of
Messrs. Moore & Asbury was destroyed,
render it probable that the fire originated
by accident, and was not, as at first gener-
ally supposed, kindled by an incendiary.-'
We are further informed that the loss by
the fire will not probably exceed $500 or
$4,000. Messrs. Moore & Asbury had no
insurance upon the property.

malaria that joyous spring brings in its

easy to neutralize this poison-remove this

VHE ENGLISH OpERA.-The performance
of the beautiful opera of Mariana last
night was very good, and the intelligent
audience present gave evidence of high
qualification and delight Miss Rosa Cooke
as Mariana sang with excellent taste and
fine effect. The opening of the piece was
grand. The Cavatina-"The Harp in the
Air"-and the Angelus -"Angels that
Around us Hover"-were beautifully and
affectingly rendered by Miss Cooke and the
troupe.
Mr.. VIM. Castle as Don Cesar sustained
his part most effectively. His voice is full
and round, and cannot fail to make a deep
impression. Mr.. Campbell as Don
Jose sang everywhere with good eff
feet and was often warmly ap-
plauded, as indeed were the entire troupe.
But we cannot particularize further than
to say that the performers generally ac-
quilted themselves well and merited high
praise.
Tonight comic opera will be produced
-Auber's "Fra Diavola." The plot is sim
pie, but very interesting, and the music
surprisingly excellent. 1t is an opera that
will call out the talent and skill of each
performer and we have no doubt, from the
sample last night, it will be handsomely
rendered. Go tonight by all means and
enjoy this fine comic opera.

CIRcLEv1LLE, Feb. 18th, 1861,


The Warm Air Furnace invented and
manufactured by Mr.. Peter Martin, of Gin
cinnati, was put into the Union school
building OF this city in November last, and
thus far it has given entire satisfaction. 1t
surpasses other furnaces in the following
important particulars: 1t has, compara-
lively, greater heating surface; produces
larger volume of heat with given amount
of fuel; the condition of the air in respect
to temperature, moisture and purity, is SUI
perior; the admission of cold air, the sup
ply of warm air for the several rooms, and
the fires, are more easily regulated.
To avoid scorching and decomposing the
air, as is done, to some extent, by other hot
air furnaces, and to secure to each room an
abundant supply of pure, fresh air, warmed
to a pleasant temperature, as well as to pro-
tect the wrought-iron air-fues from
the effects of the fire, it is essential that
the warm air-1ues leading to the school
rooms, should be at least twelve
inches in diameter. This will insure the
influx of such large and rapid current OF
fresh air as to prevent the wrought-iron
tlues from being overheated, and thus secure
the durability of the furnace, and keep the
warm air in healthful condition. 1t is
deemed proper to State in this connection,
that our Board of Education was induced
to order Mr.. Martins Furnace, because two
other furnaces had been previously used in
our school edifice without satisfactory re-
suits, and because after a careful examina-
tion of large number of furnaces and
other modes of warming school houses and
other public editices, not only in Western,
but also in Eastern cities. Mr.. Martins was
believed to be decidedly the best.
