The New Unisea States Loan.


We publish in another column this morn
ing the notice of the Secretary Of the
Treasury, that books are now open for sub
scription to the new United States loan.
The leading features of the new loan are
q reduction of the rate of interest and an
increase in the time the bonds are to run
before maturity. Long dated bonds are
preferable to those of q shorter date, and
command higher price on this account
1t is supposed that the whole of the public
debt will soon be absorbed in the proposed
new issue of bonds at the respective rates Of
four, four and half, and five per cent per
annum. The subscriptions are pouring in
rapidly, and when once the loan is taken
up BY spectators, regular investors will be
compelled to pay an advanced rate, SO those
who want chance should be in time.

We understand that Colonel McComb,
President Of the jackson railroad, has pur-
chased thousand acres of land about two
miles and half this side Of Summit, where
he will establish the machine shops and car
manufactures Of the road, now located in
New Orleans.
The advantages expected to be derived
from this new location are freedom from
epidemics, economy of living for the work
men of the company, and the superior op-
portunity of bringing down the best North
ern mechanics, who will have NO cause to
fear yellow fever at the works, and will not
hesitate to leave their Northern homes. The
movement is regarded as very judicious.

LYDIA Theopsou Barlesquoe.
On the seventeenth instant tho Lydia
Thompson Burlesque Troupe win commence
an engagement at tho Academy. The Bal
timore Bsuetin says Of this company and
their performances: .i
Miss Lydia Thompson and al. the ether
burlesquers, blonde and otherwise, ap-
peared last evening in the grand spectacle
Of the season, Lssrtine, or Ahe knight and
tie Naiads. It il, out Of all comparison, the
superior to, if somewhet older, than Fdris.
Harry Beckett and willie Edeuin were
perfectly irresistible and ELECTED perfect
shrieks and convulsions Of laughter
by their extraordinary comicalties.
Willie Edouin takes the part of Wavelet,
manageress Of . moral ballet troupe. and
gives q burlesquo imitation of Bonfanti,
which is unmistakable in its absurd fidelity
to the airy and affected original, and at the
same time 60 funny that the veriest saint in
the world would thaw into upr0ari0us smiles
at the sight of it. Harry Beckett, as the
Semeschal, exceled any of his previous
achievements; his get-up was magnificent.
and his peculiar drolleries and in
imitable physiognomy excited absolute
paroxyisms Of laughter. Miss Thomp-
SON is, Of course, grand ~ Sir
RMpert, the penniless young man who
makes love to the fresh-water mermaid,
borrows her best jewels and pawns them
heartlessly ON earth above. Miss Wealth
got up, and sings most encOrable songs in
her subaqueous drawing-room. But every
one should see Willie Edouin's moral ballet,
and behold that ecstatic individual exc
cutting q pas de de,s1 or three with Anna
Dickinson and Harriet Beecher Stowe.

Mrs. Bowers ~ Mary 6saart.
Next Thursday evening Mrs. Bowers
plays Nary Stuart at the Academy. The
St, Louis Democrat says Of this play:
Our theatre goers have had an opportunity
Of seeing some of the greatest artists of the
age in the fine historical plays Of "Mary
Stuart" and Elizabeth" Ristori, Janaus
chek and Seebach have all given us their
interpretations of the characters of En-
glands and Scotlsnd's queens. We doubt
if Mrs. d. P. Bowers Is behind any of the
artists named in the title roles Of these
plays. Last evening she appeared - Md,Y
Stssovt to crowded house, and if applause
be any criterion Of good acting, the rendition
was all that could have been desired. The
auxiliary characters wcre creditably sus-
tsined.
Miss Mary Naddern is now we'll &C
quainted with. the role Of Elizabeth when
she is made secondary to the Queen Of Scots,
having performed the part several times to
Madam Janauschek's 1ary. Tie play sd-
heres pretty closely to history, and therefore
it Is needless - give the plot. The interest
which attaches to the reign Of the unscrupu-
l0us Elizabeth and the prosecuted Mary win
ever render these historical tragedies popu-
lar.

One Of tho most exciting elections ever
held in Connecticut Was that yesterday,
when the popular Democratic Governor,
English, was defeated. and The Republican
candidate, Mr.. Jewell, was elected by .
handsome majority. The congressional
delegation, according to thS latest retnrns,
stands unchanged, three Republicans and
one Democrat being elected. fs3
The Republicans have Ained hand
somely in all parts Of the lsAts, and, the
issue being between the two parties, We
are rejoiced ct the result Our readers
will remembef that st tho repent election in
New Hampshire the Labor Reform ticket
carried votes enough from tho Republican
ranks to have changed tho result. In Con-
necticut, as We understand 4, there was
fair and square contest between the Repub-
lican and Democratic parties, and the
latest dispatches received here at one
O'Clock this morning show that the Re
publicans have won.s Therefore, we may
