From Our Reporter in that Town. !

The second concert Of Professor Tatnm's
singing class came off on Tuesday night
From n variety of reasons, the audience was
not so large rs on the previous occasion, al
though 4 select and appreciatiye audience was
present All the singing was excellent, bnt In
our opinion our Manchester girls carried OF
the palm. The entire entertainment was ex-
crllent, and every one present appeared 10 %
well pleased After the concert, the Rev ST.
Edwards, on behalf of n portion OF the class,
addressed Professor Tatum in well. timed
and eloquent address, and, at its conclusion,
presented him a handsome gold headed cane
manly, and eloquent speech, presented J X:
Gill, Esq, with n set Of jewelry, on behalf OF
committee of young ladies. Messrs. Tatnm
and Gill returned thanks very gracefully.
We understand that the Richmond visitors
were entertained by A. G. Webb, Esq, at his
residence. The concerts have been very sue
cessful, and we hope that they viii be re-
paated We learn that the pictures Of Con-
frderate generals which decorated the walls OF
the concert-room We're kindly lent BY Dr.
Chies and Mr.. j A. Gentry.

THE New ENGINE HOUSE BUILDISG.-ln the
DisDatch of Tuesday last, Il full description
was published of the building proposed to be
erected on Broad street for the accommoda-
ton of the Fire Brigade and some of the city
officers. 1t is now suggested that the building
shall be only one story in height, instead OF
three stories, as originally proposed; and it's
difficult, with the information before us, TO
see any sound or practical reason for thus
marring the completeness of the plan. The
building will be erected without the imposi-
ton of any additional tax, for, as has been
lucdly explained to the Council by the CHAIR
man of the Finance Committee. the city owns
property which cap be readily sold for more
than sufficient 10 pay the entire cost OF the
new building. In addition to the Increased
power and facilities that Will be given
to the Fire Brigade by their location
in central position, 1T must be re.
membered that the present Chief OF Police
headquarters are particularly nconVenlent
and i'll arranged, and the second story OF the
new building might be used 10 advantage as
the central Office of Major Claiborne, the Chlet
of Police. The present plan of having police
headquarters at the Old Market station house
is open to many objections, and now that there
is fair opportunity Oh HlahlnS IL ciahSe, 1he
occasion should not be neglected. As already
stated, the third story will be used by the
! Masonic fraternity, and the rent which they
will pay will go towards cancelling the inte-
rest on the cost of the building. All that the
city can lose is the rental of the lots now
vacant, and which they will have TO dispose
of and against this may be set the rent OF the
offices and buildings now used by the Com
missioners of Water Works and the Fire Bri-
gade and the rent which will be received from
the Order of Free Masons.
1t is unnecessary TO follow argument by ar
gument to prove n self-evident conclusion
There are but two plans TO be adopted-either
10 erect the new engine house three stories
high, according TO the plans and specifications
of the architect, Mr.. Gill, or else to give up
the whole scheme la toto. Compromises In
politics may be productive Of beneficial effects,
but compromise between one story and three In
the erection of a public building IS only an
other word for incompleteness and failure.
The City Council know the necessity OF the
proposed work, and SO soon as the committee
make their report we trust that orders will be
given to commence 1T once the construction OF
the whole building, with its three stories,
handsome tower, and much needed city clock

9itllmond 1ispatrh,



The Berlin correspondent of the London
Times communicates to that journal sharp
criticism of an after-dinner speech at ban.
quet of the naval club at Cronstadt by Mr..
CLAY, American Minister to the Court of St.
Petersburg. In that speech, he proclaimed
that Russia and America We're friends, and
destined to become more and more intimate as
time progressed. The IyeSt, a paper repre-
senting the opinions of the nobility, comments
sharply upon it in IN article from which the
following extract is taken:
"Amcrica and Russia are friends because
they cannot possibly be enemies. Their nte-
rests are too diverse 10 clash, and their geo.
graphical situations too widely asunder 10
admit of their coming into friendly contact.
They can neither damage nor benefit each
other. We have nothing at All 10 say
against the propricty of Russians dining win
Mr.. Clay and listening 10 his speeches out
we wish TO state our conviction that nothing
positive will ever come OF 1t. As Hllle aS
America thought of aiding us IN the defence
of Scbas topol, rs iHe &houd ce hare a$S'St@1
her ia hOltiing her 0trn ngdinSt EHgion9 d"d
France hud she eDtbToiied hsrSeG NTH hen.
Such being the case, it would perhaps have
been better for all parties alike had Mr.. Gay
and his Russian entertainers, While eNchanS-
ing superlativc compliments, rctrained from
attacking other nations, and those the most
highly civilized nations OF Europe. General
llay expressed HllnStIl III lduSudpc NhlCl
may be appropriate in a public meeting at
New York, but which is unusual in the
mouth Of diplomatist. And has England
nothing better 10 boast of than philanthropic
phraseology, as Mr.. Clay ironically sug-
gestcd? Has not England freed her ne
groeS and employed Il squadron against
the slave trade? Has not England,
true to her monarchical aud conservative in
stincts, emancipatcd her slaves in most
orderly and satisfactory way, paying ransom
for each and every one of them? Republics,
il is true have another mode of procedure III
such emergencies. Republican America went
10 war in the cause OF the slave, consumed no
end of life and property in defending his
rights, but, alas paid not q farthing 10 the
masters. We confess we are no friends TO
sentimentality in politics. We remember that
General CLAY, when travelling in france-a
country now chiefly valued by him rs the
home OF the trufie-madc Il speech 1t Paris, in
which he advised the French TO make war
against England. Again, if assuring us now
that of all the nations on the face Of the globe,
Russia is the dearest 10 the American heart,
how are we TO reconcile this asSevcration with
another which, i'll III Official document, has
been lately made by Mr.. Seward TO the effect
that the Americans felt more sympathy with
the French than with any other State Is not
Mr. Seward the Minister from whom Mr.. Clay
receives his instructions and ought they not,
in consequence, to profess the same opinions
in public 2aFrom all this, the reader viii easily
see what importance 10 attach 10 the friendly
speeches Of General Clay
