kniXhtS of MOnsaia.

On New Year, among the many pleas
ant calls that the day and the love of our
friends brought warm to our hearts, none
excelled in pleasure that of two gen tlemen
who came on a mission cf peace. They
were from the Knights of Nom US, and
their chiyalrous message was worthy Of
the olden time. They showed that the
omission which the REPUBLIcA N SO sternly
resented had been unintentional, and un-
known until our cartel astonished them on
Tuesday morning. TWAS the neglect of the
squire, who loitered by the way; the pa o.,
who dallied with my lady's maid. 1t was
any fault bu. theirs, except that they
trusted in those who promised to do their
work. The explanation was 80 complete,
the manner of the gentlemen was so kind,
the reparation so ample, that it almost
seemed as if it was we who had sinned.
We forgot, after SO knightly an explana-
ton, which was not an apology, that we
have been hurt. IG was their desire that
every reader Of ours should be as well in.
formed of their Efforts to please the public
as the most exclusive subscriber of tt g
PcayHne, for example, and in the same
spirit we say they shall have, twelve
months hence as complete an account of
their next mystery as we gave a year ago
Of the Talisman.

Tire New Steamship CarondeEef.

For eight months past Messrs. c. H. NAL
course of construction wooden steamship,
expressly to ply between the ports of New
Orleans and New York. and yesterday we
were informed of the completion of this
staunch craft, and her sure departure for this
port on the seventh instant. Upon refer
ence to the builder of this craft we find
hersto be go feet long, thirty six feet beam,
and twenty y-one feet depth of hold; she is
wodecker, and has carrying capacity of
$500 bales of cotton. She is built of the
best white oak ana yellow pine, IRON
strapped on the outside of her frame, and
has more treenails than other fastenings;
and in fact, is equal to, If not one Of the
best wooden ships atloat to-day.
Her engines, built by the we'll known firm
OF Charles II. Delamate & Co., of New
York, are similar to those of the New Or
leans and knickerbocker, having cylinder
of forty four inches diameter and sixty
inches stroke; two boilers tested for sixty
pounds pressure to the square inch, also a
surface condenser. In the construction of
the Carondelet no expense has been spared
to Daake he first class ship in all respects
and in the. accommodation of forty first
class passengers none can excel her.
The Carondelet will leave New York on
the seventh of this month and will be due
here on the fourteenth A visit to the ship
can not fail to please those interested in
marine architecture.

, A Nautical Christening.

New Years eve was the night set apart
by our worthy ship owner, Mr.. John F.
Kranz, for the christening of three of the
pcettiest three-masted schooners that float
and all respectively bearing the names of
members of his own immediate family
The Annie E., the Sophia and the Mathilde
kranz were all in port, and entitled, as
others have been before, to have their
christening. And have it they did, as
all who were present and read these lines
will testify.
At half-past five the residence Of Mr.
kranz was Illuminated from the garret to
the ground, and at P. NJ. at least fifty
guests, coming from those that Ego down
to the sea in ships" and do business upon the
great waters had assembled, and were in
vited to sit down to repast second to none
ever offered in this Or any other section of
the country.
After the soup and the Rhine wine had
taken off the wire edge of the roasts par
ties were locked for to explain the cause
for SO much of feast upon this OCCASION
and we're readily responded to by the cap
tains OF the various seLooners that were
represented in the assemblage. After the
schooners had been properly toasted and
the toasts been responded to, the square
rigged' element, being largely represented,
was called upon, and the worthy 'old tars''
most nobly replied. Captain Avery, of
the ship Matterhorn, told what he knew of
the coolest peak Of the Alps; Captain Sweet
ger, Of the ship Zephyr, what he thought
of gentle breezes; Captain Atwood, Of the
Victoria, what he had seen of the Queen
of England; Captain Curtis, of the Reunion,
gave his opinion of harmony and brotherly
love; while Captain Ames, Of the Guard
ian, wished to throw his protecting mantle
over all. Many others offered appropriate
and pleasant toasts, and were it not that
daylight and New Year intervened, the
enjoyment might have been kept up till the
end Of the week.
Mrs Kranz, Miss Sophie Kranz, and the
petite Mathilde did the honors as only
those whose fathers are ship owners
can do.
The occasion was a most enjoyable one
and many sailor who partook oS the
hospitalites of Mr.. Kranz on New Years
eve will walk the quarter deck" many a
sleepless night, and be with pleasure rumi-
mating upon the joys experienced at the
christening OF the last Of the three-masted
feet

Jewish Widows and Orphans.

The nineteenth anniversary of the Asso-
ciation for the Relief Of Jewish Widows and
Orphans will be celebrated Sunday, Janu-
ary IL, 1874. at 1880 A. M at the Home, on
Jackson, between Chippewa and Annuncia-
tion streets.
Among all the attributes that tradition,
history or popular prejudice have rightly or
wrongly attached to the Jewish nation that
of charity has ever found place. Whittier
the infdel drove him from his home, the
English baron tortured him for his gold, the
superstitous German or the bigoted Italian
soldier sought his blood. though his hand
closed on the nimbie penny IN his trade
9th bis prosecutors, it always opened when
he met the deserving needy. 1t was Jew
who was the good Samaritan, and it was
right that the great sculptor should select
the subject of lis labors to crown the
memorial to the success Of science in alle-
waiting pain-the Ether Monument -
This institution is the Oldest ot.its kind n
the country, and should have the aid by
word and deed of all who have a kind
thought for their fellow beings The exhi-
OlLioA wall CouSiSC VI itCILdtiOuS, songs anu
dialogues by the orphans, who, dressed in
their best, will welcome with, happy faces
and glad hearts those who come to see them
on that day. Rev. II. S. Jacobs will open
and Rev. NJ. Moses will close the exercises
with prayer. The committee of arrange
ments embraces a large number of names
OF our most eminent citizens, and every ar
rangement has been made to insure the
success of the celebration.

Capture of Fort Calavero.
MADRID, January 3.-The besiegers of
Cartagena have captured by assault and
burned the OUTLYING fort of Calavero.
Assembling of the Certes - Castelar's
Message.
MADRID, January 3-The Cortes met yes
terday and President CASTELAR, read his
message from the ministerial bench. He
said the government had acted promptly
and energetically against disturbances and
cOnspiracies OF all kinds, and that order had
been maintained everywhere except in the
north, where the Carlists still maintained
their attitude of rebellion, and at Cartagena,
where unfortunately criminal insurrection
has possessed itself of one of the strongest
places in Spain, and with it the boats,
arsenal and most formidable ironclad and
impregnable fortress within which to pro-
tect their aoeUrsed flag.
The want OF troops and resources delays
their recapture, which, however, is certain
in the end. 1t is beyond doubt that the in
surgents at Cartagena have direct commu-
nication with the Carlists. The Carlist war
is greatly aggravated by the disorganiza-
ton and lack Of discipline and discussions
among the leaders of the forces supporting
the government cause. The President ap-
