How To SEE TIE MIsrIcK KKEwE.-Col. Ner,
riam, proprietor Of Crescent Billiard Hall, at the
corner of st. Charles and Canal, very generously
tenders the Of his galleries to ladies who de-
sire to see the procession Of the Mistick Krewe
this evening. All male bipeds must stay upon
the street, but the ladies will be welcomed upon
the spacious galleries Of Crescent Hall. From
this we are justified in iuferring that the Krewe
viii be visible during the evening somewhere in
the neighborhood Of the Clay statue.

As was stated in our edition of Sunday, the
"Tale Of Enchantment" ballet troupe arrived ia
this city from Havana. An incident, however, of
their sojourn in the Ever Faithful Isle is Jet ours
to narrate. From Havana the troupe went to
MataDzas, at which point two of the danseuses
dissolved their connection with the company, upon
the ground, we have understood, that their con.
tract-at least that of one of them-had been for
performances in any place in the United States
only. At all events, the troupe was decreased by
two, and subsequently returned to Havana to take
ship for this city. Before engaging passage, Mr..
Van 0rden, the manager, was confronted by the
following unexpected communication:
CONSULATE GENERAL OF q. 8. OF AMERICA,
as Havana, Feb. 10, $685.
MI J. b Var Orden Jr Hotel Santa Isabel: 3
6fr-Until you shall have paid the passages of
Miss - and Miss =, whom you are morally
bound TO return to their homes, have given in
sructions to the captain Of this port not to permit
you 70 leave in the steamer Liberty for New
u. 81 Il. B DE la RENrRIE.
Vice Consul General
To which Mr.. Van orden very pointedy replied
as follows:
HAVANA, Feb 10, 1868.
n. r. dc la Relptrie ESQ., Vice Consul General u s.:
Mr.. Williams has shown me your letter directing
him not TO let me depart on the Liberty unless
paid the passages' of two persons whom you
STATE am morally hound to take to their
homes.O
do not recognize the right 10 you or any other
man, 10 dictate whom | shall, or shall not, take
back TO the United States. have appointed no
man my conscience keeper and have fortified nv
self with evidence to protect myself 10 my moral
as well as legal rights. So A
shall not pay the passages Of the two persons
to whom you refer but shall be on board the
Liberty at P. NJ, this afternoon, and depart for
the United States, unless am restrained by force
major. Your most obedent servant,
WI. B. VAN oRDEN, Ja.
At the hour Of the Liberty's departure Van
orden was on board as he had promised. The
" force major" shortly appeared in the shape of
an order Of arrest from the captain of the port.
This, however, was subsequently countermanded,
and Mr.. Van Order to the satisfaction 81 hinsslf,
and shs eradication of his follow passengers,
allowed to proceed without further moestation,
upon bis journey.
The entire party left for St. Louis via Jackson
Railroad, last evening, to meet an engagement in
that city. II is said that the foregoing facts will
be submitted to the department of state in Wash-
ington.

of each State respectively, and that any
attempt by Congress, on any pretext what
ever, to deprive any State OF this right, or
to interfere with ito exercise, is fragrant
usurpation OF power which can find no
warrant in the Constitution; and, if sane
toned by the people, will subvert our form
or Government, and can only end in O.
single centralized and consolidated Co.
vernment, in which the separate existence
OF the States will be entirely absorbed, and
an unqualified despotism be established
in place Of Federal Union Of co-equal
States; and that we regard the reconstruc-
tion Acts (so-called) Of Congress as such
are usurpations, and unconstitutional, re-
voiutlonary, and void; that our soldiers
and sailors, who carried the flag of our
country TO victory against most gallant
and determined foe, must ever be CRATE
fully remembered, and all the guarantees
given in their favor must be faithfully car
ried into execution.
That the public lands should be distri-
buted as widely as possible among the
people, and should be disposed of either
under the pre-emption Of homestead lands,
and sold in reasonable quantities, and to
none but actual occupants, at the mini
mum price established by the Government.
When grants OF the public lands may be
allowed, necessary for the encouragement
or important public improvements, the
proceeds OF the sale OF such lands, and not
the lands themselves, should be 30 ap-
piled.
That the President of the United States.
Andrew johnson, in exercising the power
OF his high Office in resisting the aggres-
sions OF Congress- upon the constitutional
rights of the States and the people, is en-
titled to the gratitude of the whole Ameri
can people, and in behalf Of the Democra-
tic party, we tender him our thanks for his
patriotic efforts in that regard.
UpOn this DlatfOrm tho DaD, -
party appeal to every patriot. including ell
the conservative element and all who de-
sire to support the Constitution and re-
store the Union, forgetting all past differ
ences OF opinion, to unite with us in the
present great struggle for the liberties of
the people; and that to all such. to what
ever party they may have heretofore be-
longed, we extend the right hand of fell
lowship, and hail all such cooperating
with US as friends and brethren.

says: ga day or two ago, a raftsman,
by the name of Gore, was struck by
lightning, near New Boston, and
instantly killed. He had remarked,
several times on the trip, that he
would not live through it. During
the storm, he said he didn't care q
d-n for any lightning God ever
made. Immediately, the bolt struck
him on the head, and he was dead
man."
In New Haven, few days since, a
woman, whose dress was accidentally
trodden upon, assaulted the man
who committed the deed, demanding
q new dress from him, chasing him
up and down the street, and once
snatching his hat from his head.
Losing him, she ran after his wife,
who secured safety in some hiding
place, and the enraged female finally
subsided and went home.

TO TIE PEOPLE OF THE SOUTH.
THE WEEKLY CLEANER Devoted to
the rehabilitation Of the South in tits former
prosperity-is offered to subscribers at the
low rate of $3.50 for six months. ,-.
The annals Of the American. Republic
show no political campaign comparable in
the magnitude of its issues and the mo.
righteousness of it's results to that for the
Presidency, now pending. Indeed, the
very life Of free government is on trial.
and 1t will be a sad commentary on the
capacity of the people for the exercise of
that high trust if they, the jurors who are
to try the issue, pronounce verdict of
self-condemnation. IF the South has any
hope 1t is in the success of the Democratic
party in the coming Presidential election:
and every citizen is vitally interested in
the progress of the battle, and cannot
afford to be without sound and reliable
newspaper. rf
AS an organ, not only Of sound Demo-
cratic principles, but as o vehicle of ge-
neral news, the CLEANER is confidently
commended to Southern support. A large
eight-page paper, Of forty-eight columns.
filled with the contributions. of able cor
respondents, the daily wealth of tele-
graphic communication and readable edi-
torials. Especially will it be valuable as
an organ to disabuse the Northern mind
OF the falsehoods in relation to Southern
thought and actions, with which it is the
industrious vocation Of certain parties to
poison the springs Of Northern feeling on
Southern subjects. In this view of the
matter, no more valuable aid TO the true
reconstruction of the country and restora-
tion OF just sentiment at the North toward
the South can be rendered than by sub
scribing to the WEEKLY CLEANER and
aending it to acqnaintar ces and friends in
the Northern States.
We ask the aid of such of our political
comrades as shall see this prospectus, in,
the distribution of the paper; especially
during the progress OF the impending
campaign, ksSsys &Gjls.
L. The WEEKLY CLEANER is published
every Wednesday morning, and mailed to
single subscribers at $500 per anum; Six
Months, s1.5o; Three Months, 75c.; Single

as an article purporting to be of utility

by public opinion, unprincipled parties
endeavor to replenish their depleted
purses by counterfeiting and substituting
spurious for the genuine article. Some
time since, mercury, in the Disguise of
pills, powders, &C., was given for all dis
eases OF the stomach and liver, while Gui-
nine was freely administered for the

rated. The beneficial effects OF this valu.
able preparation were at once acknow-
lodged. and mineral poisons suffered to
sink into that obscurity to which an en-
lightened age has consigned them. There
have been many spurious Bitters palmed
upon the community, which, after trial
have been found perfectly worthless,
while HOSTETTER'S has proved bless

restoration to health and strength.
For many years, we have watched tho
