THE MAGNOLIA fIoTEL.-We learn that Col.
Geo. II. Clark. thea Aell known and popular pro-
prieter of the DRIED House, at the corner of St.
Charles and CoDknen streets, in this city. has
leased the hotelk Fin Magnolia, Miss, and is
determined 10 mabt it the most popular place Of
summer resort in she vicinity of New Orleans.
When it is remembs pred that Magnolia it but few
hours run from be y, and is located in one of the
healthiest regions q Mississippi near that beautiful
stream, the Tangipshoa, 1t must appear that en-
ergetic and competent gentleman like Col. Clark
can succeed in az Bis expectations The Tsng
pahoa river runs Within forty feet of the hotel. and
the establishment has ample and agreeable bath
houses for ladies' snd gentlemen. Col. Clark kept
this house before.the aud it then a
very popular place for summer resort for families.
Gen. Smeeds kept it last season when ii was
patronized by some of our best citizens, all OF
whom were delightfd with the locality. We hope
that Col. Clark will meet with the success he de.
serves.

CHANGES IN THE COMMAND.
A SPANISH FRIGAIt oNTHE ALERT.
4 DEATH 1N T1TE FEHEr.
n

PERUVIAN STEAMSHIP MARANON,
Key West, Florida, March 4th. 1869.
There may be some people in the United States
to-day who don't like the prospect Of Gen. q. s.
Grant taking his seat, but don't believe any of
them are half as much troubled as some of the
folks here are at the idea of seeing that Spanish
frigate outside the bar, where she has been
lying watching our movements ever since we
came into port. During the last two or three
days the monitors have been taking ammunition
aboard from the storeships Reyo and Maranon.
In case of an attack from the Spanish frigate,
they do not intend to lie idle and be fred at with
out making some return. That would hardly be
polite, we think; so in case of an attack you
may be prepared for some stirring news from the
gulf.
One or two changes have occurred in the feet
since its departure from New Orleans. Commo-
dore j. b. Marisuqui, formerly in command OF the
expedition, has resigned and gone home overland
on account of some dissatisfaction in the set. He
Is succeeded as flag officer by seniority OF rank,
By Captain Correa, of the Mancocapac. Captain
j. W. Moore still commands the Atahuallpa, Lieu
tenant Tizon the Maranon, Lieutenant Sanchez
the Reyo, and Captains Dubois Gillespie and Gill
christ are still attached TO the feet.
One death has occurred thus far. that of fire.
man The Mancocapac, who was badly scaded
on the 10th OF January. died on the 18th of Febru
airy, and was buried at sea. The deceased was
named Emanuel Est, was native Of Tironne,
France, snd shipped in New Orleans. He may
have friends there, and it would be advisable, in
view of the possibility OF this, TO announce his
death in the Bee.
Please send me some papers to Rio Janeiro. We
shall sail IN an hour for st. Thomas, from which
port will write you again. have deferred writ
ing az any length this time, knowing that news
from Us while in Uncle Sans dominions could be
productive of but little interest. MEDICO.

that John A. Griswold. the last Republican candi-

was warmly urged by the politicians of the em-
