CoLFAx LECTURE.-Town7 Street Metho-
dist Church last night contained an audi
enee OF about six hundred persons, to hear
Hon. Schuyler Colfax deliver his lecture,
"Across the Continent," under the aaspi-
ces of the YoungsMen's Christian Associa-
tion. AS literary effort, the lecture was
complete sGecess, and contained much
that was new and of interest. His descript-
i've powers are of the, first order, though
we had an idea, from having beard him on
the floor of the House of Representatives,
that he was suffering from the fatigue of
travel and wanted the usual amount of
snap. His views on the Pacific Rail-
road question are sound, though we
fear the condition his party is reducing the
country to, will prevent the consumation of
that enterprise during this generation. 1t
is said thatColfax is making this lecture tour
with view to the Presidency if so, it is
love'sl abor lost; for his chances are not
much better than Ben. Buffers; but we are of
opinion that this is mistake, and that his
real design is the furtherance of his pet
measure, the Pacific railroad. In this we
wish him, Radical as he is, God speed
After the lecture, Mr.. CoIfax held levee
at the house of F. G. Sessions, Esq, which
was numerously attended, and our citizens
went into the hand shaking business with
a vim.
THE BLACK CRooK.-Another fine house
last night still greater proficiency in the
play and mechanical effects, show that the
disposition on the part of the public and the
managers to make the Black Crook zen
joyable and profitable still continue. Not
one Of the tableaux but are encored not a
funny speech, but is duly appreciated {; not
song but is source of enjoyment. The
s." Demon Dance "-continues to be great
attraction, and Agusta and Jovetta can
dance it as it is not equalled outside of New
York. The dances of Md'lle Augusta, as
we have already said, are the real poetry of
motion, while those of the piquant Md1le
Jovetta are not whit behind her. Either
would be great. were the other away,
though we hold to our first faith that the
dashing, agile and graceful Augusta far
surpasses any dansuese ever in the West
before, not even excepting Cubas. Don't
forget the matinee on Saturday afternoon.
WRIT OF HABEAs CoRPUs.-Ye Yesterday Ja-
cob Clayberg, of Richland county, Ohio,
appeared before Judge Pugh and made
complaint that mis- son, Eli Clay berg, was
imprisoned and restrained of his liberty by
Coli Samuel Ross and Major McGowen,
and praying for writ of ha6eas corpus to
take and have Eli Clayberg before Judge
Pugh for the purpose of restoring him to
liberty. 1t seems that Eli Clay berg, on the
9th day of March, 1866, enlisted as private,
