ANNUAL RECEPTION At THE NATIONAL AcADE w OF DESIGN.

Notwithstanding the disagreeable, u unreasonable
weather gay and brilliant assembly met In the gall
leres of the National Academy of Design last even
ing at the annual reception which precede Sthe open
Ing of the spring exhibition of works OF art. the
very successful winter exhibition which recently
closed has multiplied the number Of amate ars, ana
the growing appreciation of the public has sth uuiated
the industry and the ambition OF artists. Happy
fruits OF increased sympathy between the arts " and
the public are now visible on the walls of the cade-
my. If fewer large pictures strike the eye, more
carefully finished works delight the visitor han
at previous exhibitions. 1t is true that too manyof
the pictures attest the enency rather than the severe
good taste usually attributed to the Council. Eat
even the hasty glance which alone s possible when
the galleries are crowded with beauty and fashion,
as they always are at these annual receptions, is
enough to satisfy the most carpng critic that on the
WHOLE a decided improvement is manifest in draw
ing In treatment, and especially In variety of inven-
tion American artists, for the most part, excel in
color, but hitherto many of them have been deficient
In other equally important qualities. Some Of them
have seemed to be voluntarily selfcondemned to
auUau1 forces for life, and perpetuay repeat from
year to year with tiresome mOnotony the'same old
familiar subjects which offered in their earliest
pictures. Happily, an suspicious change. In this
respect is indicated by the collection of new pictures
In the spring exhibition Of the Academy.

Position Of Marshal Falcon-The Financial
TrOuble-The Rebellion Still Defant-The
Elections.
HAVANA, April Ia, 1858.
Our advices from Venezuela are to March o.
Marshal Falcon was at Puerto Cabelo. There was
still deadlock in Congress- The insurgents hold
sway over two-thirds OF the provinces of Aragua,
Bolivar and Carabobo. General Saltillo had made
his submission and issued proclamation from
Soedad counselling the inhabitants to follow his
ample.
The rebels are masters Of Barcelona, but govern
ment was taking measures to insure peaceful ter
minatOn Of the contest there. The national troops
had gained victory in Chagua over General Vagas
who was routed and his troops dispersed. General
Quintano was severely wounded
yThe troubles with General Peraza In Trujllo were
expected to end speedily.
The vital question with the government is the
finances A firm in La Guayra collects eighty per
cent OF the customs dues, and the war drains the
treasury Of what little is left Marshal Falcon how
ever, contracting with Jesurm Curaza, an Isra-
elite, who possesses vast estates In Paraguay. Well
informed parties predict that Falcons administra-
ton will end In three months He has gone to Puerto
Cabello as a sort Of refuge; but 1t Is not place
fitted for military purposes. The garrison is only
1900 strong entrenched IN the strongest fortress
there. Admiral Todd Is also In that port with most
OF his squadron.
The October elections are what preoccupy Falcon.
II he brushes the rebellion he will be reeeced II he
fails there will be q dozen candidates In the field.

so II Egleson was not present. The latter having
been sent for, accompanied the police magistrate to

was to get Egleson to make arrangements for his

could be got defend him and had list Of witnesses
in his own behalf made out. His friends want to
employ John Ii. Cameron and his wife Is to be told
according to Whelans instructions, to spare no
expense.
Whean looks well and says he has no complaint to

boots, which they took away to compare with the
marks in the snow, leaving him barelOoted He also
desires another suit of clothes for change.

From st. Domingo we have news TO March g.
The United States steamer Saco has been saluted
by the FORTS and her officers had been entertained at

Thirty refugees, including General Canales, Senior
Garcia Secretary Of State under Cabral, and other
distinguished supporters OF the late government

Senator Anthony, Of Rhode Island.
Senator Anthony is one of the Judges of the
High Court of Impeachment before which the
President of the United States is arraigned
upon charges of high crimes and misdemeanors.
If he is convicted the Executive will be re-
moved from his high Office, thus concentrating
an event unknown in the previous history of
the republic. Senator Anthony, who is man
highly respected by the citizens of Rhode
Island, the proprietor of fair, honest, conser-
vative newspaper, genial gentleman, gifted
with no small share of common sense must
know that the first article of the indictment
against the President involves no crime de-
handing punishment He must see nth the
light of the intelligence that belongs to him that
the desire or the attempt to remove Cabinet
officer, who, as General Sherman swears, Mr..
Johnson declared was an obstacle to the faith
full performance of his duty in the service of
the country, is not violation of law and was
not contemplated as such by the trainers of the
Civil Tenure Of Office bill. How, then, will
Senator Anthony vote upon the impeachment?
Can he vote for conviction upon the fimsy
charges contained in the first article of impeach-
ment-charges not sustained either by argu-
ment or evidence? Is his political future so
Indifferent to him, his public representation ofso
little value, that he can sacrifice the interests
of his country for mere party ends and fling
away his precious good repute as a straight
forward and consistent statesman in obedience
to the terrorism sought to be exercised by
party leaders? Can he consent to send his
name down to posterity leagued with the few
and happily they are but few-enemies of his
country, who, in times past, would barter the
stability of the government for the hope of a
poor reward-with the names of Arnold and
Burr? We trust not; we believe not. Mr..
Anthony cannot vote for the conviction of
President Johnson upon the shallow testimony
which his reason must reject. If his record
does not misrepresent him he is made of sterner
stuff
