save the stock from being thrown upon the mar

ranged; that said note was without value to any

able audience assembled at the Opera House last
evening TO pay tribute to Mr.. Damiani the ex-
Quisite tenor, in the opera OF "Lucreta Borga Z"
which he bad chosen for his benefit The per.
Torrance was an ovation 20 every. one of the
singers engaged, Mr.. Damiani's singing at every
moment eliciting the applause of the audience.
Mr.. Van Hut1en, who sang throughout with un-
usual excellence, was not only encored in his
song OF vengeance in the third act, but was also
recalled after the scene. Mime Audibert, who
never appeared more charming than in the
role of OrSini, was also encored after the
Brindis,' which she sang in manner reminding
one of Vestval The brave little Fauschetti sang
with her usual talent, but the fatigues which she
has recently undergone by overwOrk told plainly
on her voice last evening. Altogether the eve
ming was one of the plessantest within our recOl-
lection. On Saturday, Nine Audbert takes her
benefit in {" La Belle Helene" the remarkable
contralto taking the principal part of Helene.
Seats are already in demand for this important
occasion. On Sunday, "Lucretia," ;" and vaude-

Gideon Welles, says Washington correspond
ent, goes out on horseback every afternoon, look
ing Ike gray dervish. He likes the lazy en-
joyment Of Office. Seward stays at bone OF
nights, drinking sherry kindly furnished by Mar
shsI Murray. Self.enjoyment is the key Of his
character; selfgrsthcation his chief delight. He
loves to eat and drink and talk genteey, and on
q full stomach to indite huge briefs about the
state. II is most natural that this Prince Hal Of
materialists should be, at the end, buyer OF
lands and builder Of game preserves. 1t Is not
impossible that Alaska attracted him because ID
was q nursery Of canvas back ducks. Reasoning
from the pleasures Of the table TO the pleasures
Of the state, he conceived the idea Of catching
the whole race Of wild ducks in the egg. Being
old and thin Of blood, the dream Of warm fura
gave him aspirations towards the land Of the sea-
otter and the silver fox. And 80, out OF his vo-
luptuary worship, he sent. like one Of the old
gods, q treaty maker to the czar, and fetched
seven millions worth Of marketing home. Mr..
Seward is the state purveyor; look back into the
origin Of his name, and you VIII probably ind u
to be &ewGrd.

THE ISLANDER AGAINST GEN. BEAUREGARD.-
The Bee has been favored for publication with
the following letter, which Gen. Beauregard had
received from Mr.. Hoffman, sexton of the Ma
tonal Cemetery at Arlington, Va:
NATIONAL CEMETERY,
Arlington, Virginia, May Z, 1868.
Gen @. Besuregard New Orleans, La:
Sir hope You will excuse the liberty taken by
me in intrudiDg these lines upon your notice.
You doubtless remember that 1t was not a
" crippled soldier " who received yourself and
friends on your visit to this cemetery and it must
necessarily surprise you to see it in print asserted
that such was the fact. The man spoken of in
the publication has served as jantor since Janua-
~. 1868. and being notorious liar. of which ho
has been several times convicted, imposed upon
those who listened to him for his peeuniary
benefit.
AS to myself, it never entered my mind for an
instant to make any such contemplate charge
against you or any one without cause, and /
was as much astonshed by the aspersion when it
met my view as you possibly could have been.
Though by principle thorough Republican. still
| would not, for their sake, descend to so low a
pit nor be personally unkind to a visitor.
| hope that this statement will dispel your
doubts as regards myself.
am, very respectfully, your Obedient servant,
