Opera Music for the Plano. Ian't there something in this "Opera Mtsic for the Piano" that sounds like the ver'y thing itself? It does to our ear. It is copied from the "Knick erboeker Magazine :" "List ! the piece is about to begin; nsocrve Miss Introduction come in: A "oddess in floutees, arid pinched at the waist, A.:_! elook like a statue, embellished with paste. 11 tLe kevs that can be got at, F the fingers straight are shot at.; A.ien a soft and gentle tinkle, Gentle as the rain-drop's sprinkle, e, two. three, four, -i, six-run ashore. Then a stop Fingers drop. Now a r-:'h from :op to bottom, e notes now, while we dot 'em; amusic, for we've got 'em. :, forward, up and down, .1ke a ronkey or a clown; N,w t e close-a gentle strike, o d ever hear the like? Piece commences: N v)egins a merry trill, L a cricket in a mill; w a short, uneasy motion, a bed-bug at devotion, Or a ripple on the ocean. S.. the tingers skip about; IeIar the notes as ther come ot Liow they mingle in the tingle Of the everlasting jingle ; Like the hail-stones on a shingle Or the ding-dong, dangle-dingle Of a sheep-bell- double, single: Now they come in wilder gushes; Up and down the player rushes; Quick as squirrels, or the thrush.es, Darting round among tL.e bushes, Making rattle, like the tushes Of the s%ine, a-drhiking slushe3. Now the keys begin to clatter, Like a chorus on a platter, Or a house., aid stirring batter, Hear the niusic that they suatter, Thoagh 'ti. flat and growing flattes; All ii clatter, naught's the matter. Bark ! the strains, for now we're at her 'er the music comes a change, Now we take ano:,her range; Every tone is w%ild and straigo. Now there comes the lofty tumbling, And the rumbling and the grumbling O the thunder, from its slumbering Just awaking. Now it's taking To the quaking, like a fever-and-ague shaking; Now it's mnking such a raking, Evads are aching, something's breaking. Goodness! gracious: ain't it wondrous? Rolling round, above and under us, Like old Vulcan's strokes so thunderous. Now the rattle of the battle Deepens deeper, and the cattle Beilo-w louder, and the powder Will be all expended soon. Stich a clanging, whanging, banging, Flam ! bang ! whang ! Heavens! how the music rang ! Ah! the ham ony so splendid Is expended-all is ended. Though I'm frighted, I'm delighted With this finery and this.foppery Of this modern music opera. "Brieks" Pomeroy on Mosquitoes. "Brick" Pomeroy of the LaCrosse (Wis.) .Democrat gives the following as his experi ence in getting mosquitoes intoxicated. "Josh Billings" can't beat it: MosQUIToEs 0N A BENDER. Night before last, in order to sleep, we placed a piece of raw beefstea'k on a plate at the head of our bed. In the rrorning it was suicked by the mosquitoes as dry as an old sponge, and our skins saved at least two thousand perforations. All about the room in the morning were mosquitoes, plethoric with blood, loaded till they could not fly. We killed a few, but the job was sanguinary, so we left them to their feast. Last night in order to get over with the screaming devils, we steeped half a pound of beefstenk in some old rye whiskey, and left it on a plate near the bed. Nothing like be ing hosp itably inclined. In ten. minutes af ter the light was extinguished, a swarm ofi these- backbiting bill-posters made an ad vaoce movement. One of them caressed us sw,eetly on the nose-but:ent in hris bill ther-e wvas a slap-a dead mosquito! Soon we reard a tremendous buzzing about the wi:sker soaked beef. The entire mosquito famrily ~eamersinging in, and such an opera good Lord deliver us! But they did not diur u with bites, we fell asleep to be awa kee1in :en minutes by the worst mosquito conicert e-er editor, mortal, devil, angel, di vine, Dtzchman, or any other man listened to. We raised a laugh, and the greatest show of the season was there to be seen. Every mosquit o was drunk as a blind fiddler, and such an uproarous night as the long-billed wrhelps had, never was seen before this side of--s.Lah!/ The worst antics! Some were racing circus on the plate. One big fellow, si L a belly like Falstaff, full of blood and ;Thisker, was dancing juba on the Bible, w ie a~fat friend of his trlbe lay on her back beatin~g the devil's dream on an invisible tam borinme with one hind leg! Two more were w'restling themselves on the footboard of the bed, each with his bill stuck fast to the tim ber. Another was tieing the legs of our pants in a bow knot to tie about the neck of Anna~ Dickinson, which hangs against the wash stand, while another red-stomached customer -was tryinrg to stand on his head in the wash bowl., All over the room were dIrunken mosquiitoes. 1ne long-b.illed, gzaunt representative, was :-sing to raim the mueilage bottle full of news <aper clippings. Another chap was drilling~ Shole th'rough a revolver handle a.nd singing -My Mary Ann," while another was limping .ross the window-sil in search of fresh air, o the agonizing tune of-tramp-tramp :amnp! 'ne lit tle ramn of a skeet was trying jam the cock out of Gen. Butler's eye with too,th-brush, as his picture hung beside hnat of Kid, the pirate, anid a few other thieves. Another drunken statesman of the mnosquitoe -mily, retminded us of Zach. Chandler and .'.s talking Russian to a lot of drunken corn p.anlinos as they lay in a heap on a plate, while .nother sat on the handle of a Bowie-knife, doubled up with cramp in the stomach, and trying to unite his tail with his bill, which seeme~d like Lincoln's back-bone when Anna iDickenson' said it wanted stiffening, lie was a sick looking skeeter, and died in three min utes after we saw him, her, or it, as the case may be. Two others took a bath in the ink stand. Another one, with a bill like the devil's narrative, was trying to wind otir watch with a pen-wiper, while another had just died as he was sitting on the rim of a dish in the room, trying to chant-"Mother, I've comne home to die !" Poor skeeter. A nme skeeter, "but 'twas a pity he drank." An old veteran with a paunch fulh of 'alf and 'alf-blood and whiskey-sat on the table reading Les Miserables, while his wife was under the table trying to mend her br oken wing with a limpsy tooth-pick. She looked disgusted. Another one combed his hair with a paper of pins, tied a piece of white paper about his neck, pasted a five cent in out of tbe window for John >. Cougb, or a stomach pump. A worse behaved set of huinmers we never saw. They have acted fearful. About two thousand lie about dead, but sadness seemed not to break in upon their hilarious rioting upon blo,d and whiskey. Half a dozen of them sat on our new hat play ing draw poker, using worm lozengers for checks, while one of them got clean bursted by making a fifty dollar blind good on a four flush which didn't fill! He will be apt to wear cotton socks next winter, and keep away from church on collection days. Another sat on the top of a brandy bottle reading Baxter's Call to the Unconverted, while his partner lay dcad at his feet, evi dentally forced to close doors by the failure of Ketchum & Son, of New York! Six oth ers were trying to hang one that looked like a Copperhead to the corner of a match safe, but as they were drunk and he sober, it is not safe to bet on his being dangled. They have eaten the beef-drunk the blood and whiskey-drilled a plate full of holes-nod on the centre table organized a Son of Malta lodge, using a five -cent shin-plaster for a blanket, in the act entitled the "Elevation of Man." Another red-bellied leader of the Miss Kece ter family had a battalion of drunken bum mers on the edge of a spittoon, watching him jam a fur overcoat into his left ear. He was foolish-foolish enough for a brigadier-general or a member of Congress. A little cuss with black legs, crimson stomach and double-joint ed bill, was vomiting in a satin slipper, while his wife, a sickly looking lady of her tribe, was gnawing at the bed post, thinking it a bologna. Another one, evidently an old maid, sat under the sofa milking a cat, while her sister was crowding a pair of woolen drawers into her waterfall, singing in a subdued strain: "Come rest in this bosom I" We have applied for a season ticket-front seat. Another one, with a certificate of mariage over his head, in the shape of a candle-mould, was dancing a findango with two mosquito virgins on a watch crystal, while a deacon in one of their churches sat playing old sledge with a cork-screw, to see which should go for a gin cock-tail. An artistic delegate was standing en h-is head inachampagne tunmb!er, one hind leg run through his under jaw, while with the other he was pointing out the road to Richmond to a lot of skeets drunker than himself, which were sitting dog fashion on the pillow. We should say it was a gay party-quietly so. Talk about shows, con certs, dog fights, amputations, circusses, ne gro funerals, draw poker, sparking, o- other amusements, there is nothing to be compared to a flock of mosquitoes on a bender. If you don't believe it, fix them up a piece of beef steak soaked in whiskey, and laugh your sides sore at the antics the drunken warblers cut FAsnIONABLE FEMININE GAMEsTERS.-In one of my recent letters, I spake of gan>bling as one of the vices of our fashionable women, and I have since learned that it is practiced in certain modish quarters far more than I had supposed. In Fifth Avenue~ and .Fourtecnth and Twenty-third streets, there are often par ties of ladies from which the opposite sex are sternly excluded, where the fair gamesters play until daylight for large stakes; and it not unfrequently happens that when their purses are depleted, they put up their brace lets, necklaces and watches as wagers. Some of the feminine gamesters lose heavily, and the desperate shifts-nio allusion to their ward robes-to which they are put to conceal their Icases and replace them, mat be fearfully de moralizing. A young woman, the daughter of one of our most opulent citizens, was pointed out to me last Saturday, in the Park, as a notorious gambler, by one of her own sex, who inform ed me she had parted with nearly $100,000 since she went to Saratoga, in July, and made her doting papa believe che had expended the sum in dress and charity. The young woman in question is very pret ty, not more than twenty; no one regarding her pale, spirituelle face, her soft, blue eyes, and gentle and reserved manner, would imagine she had fallen a victim to one of the most dan gerous vices. One mizht almost apply to her the famous couplet that Pope employs for his Belinda, "If to her share some female errors fall, Look on her face and you'll forget them all." But then, the Duchess de Brinvillieres was gentle and retiring in manner, and Lucretia Borgia often looked like a sweet saint who had lost her way to Heaven. [Cor. Cincinnatti Gazette. 4 m GENERAL LEE ONCE OFFERED THE COMAND TUE UNITED STATES AR~mES.-Uon. Monrg:'m ry Blair is out in a Washington paper in a letter eight columns long, In the course of this letter he mentions. the following circum stances: "Let me observe here :it was the fall of Sumpter that produced on the instant the or dinance of secession and filled Virginia with troopr from the Gulf States to carry it before the people. Its effects upon ordinary men may be conceived by the influence it exerted over General Lee. My father was authorizd by the President and Mr. Cameron, Secretary of War, to converse with General Lee and as certain whether he would accept the command of our army in the field. The latter was writ ten for, and he met my father at my house, where they conversed for an hour or more. It was a few days before the ordinance was pas sed General Lee concluded the conversation by saying :'Secession was anarchy,' ard add ed, 'if he owned the four millions of slaves in the South, he would cheerfully sacrifice them to the Unoin ; but he did not know how he cold draw his sword on his native State. IIe said he wo,uld see Gen. Scott on the subject before he decided.' A commnittee from the Virginia Convention, while the General and my father conversed, were hunting him through the city. They met on his leaving the house. HIe repaired with them to consult with the Convention, as I have since learned, about some mode of settlement. The fall of Sumpter settled the question for him and the Convention." A WAIF.-The following General invitation from a Confederate country maiden to a friend in the city, was penned before the Confedera cy "went up." Come leave the noisy Longstreet And comei to the fields with me: Trip o'er the Heth with flying feet And skip Jlong the Lee There Ewell find the flowers that be Along the -tonewall still. And pluck the buds of flowing pea That grow on A. P. Hill. Across the nodes the Forrest boughs A stately Archway form, Where sadly pipes that Early bir-d That never caught the worm. Conic hasten ! for the Bee is gone, And Wheat lies on the plains: Conmc braid a Garland 'ere the leaves Fall in the ''Blasting *Rains." *R;ins will be recollected as a partner of Mo Dania in the torpedo business.

News received here states that Maximillian hs ordered all his forces withdrawn from out v~,,x,fc, ~ nr.c~r,+,-~.tnA ',i- *hrt~ nAiflt'. - ELorEmr," AND Divo*RcE&-:-The Indianapolis correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial writes: An elopement which took place a couple of months ago h;s borne disagreeable fruit. A i young and headstrong girl, daughter of one of the "first families," persisted, despite the protests and entreaties of the parents, in marrying a hand -some but rather wild young blade. She eloped, married, returned, was reconciled, discovered an incompatibility of temper, was divorced, and is again in the bosom of her family, in the brief period of two months. Rather a rapid experience, even for this fast age, for a young Miss in her "teens." There is another case of a young and rather pretty female, who has, within the past two years, been married and divorced three times-twice to the same mar. Taylor strayed off in Dixie, and fought for his rights with Simon Bolivar Buckner. Mrs. Taylor sued for a divorce, got it, and consoled herself with a brief period of con nub'al felicity, wherein a Mr. Frazier was party of the first part. Taylor, having fixed up the matter of his rights, came up to look after his matrimo nial interest. Re prevailed on Mrs Taylor, that had been Frazier, that she should again seek the intervention of the courts, which she (lid success fullv turning poor Frazier out in the cold, and agnin marrying Taylor. The last marriage proved incompatible, and the gay and festive lady soon managed to obtain a third divorce, leaving Taylor and Frazier to con sole themselves with a mutual recital tolarger circles of sympathising friends of these extraor dinary freaks of Eros, wbile the lady is sharply on the lookout for number 4. Such is lifa in Indianapolis. THE CHOLERA.-The universal alarm felt at the North, owing to the appearance of the Cholera in New York harbor., renders some reference to the c1naracter and history of this awful pestilence interesting and appropriate The term Cholera literally means an over flow of bile ; the name comes from two Greek words which signify that. Technically, its 1 classification belongs to diseases of the diges tive tribe. In this category it has three dis tinctive appellations-Cholera Morbus, Chole ra Infantum, and Cholera Asphyxia. The last is a fearful epidemic known to us as Asi atic Cholera. The other two we have always among us ; but the plague which is now at the threshhold of our country makes only spasmodic visits. It is epidemic as opposed 'to endemic ; that is to say affecting the many rather than the few-people of all nations and classes generally, rather than persons of certain habits and grades particularly. The first visit our country had from this pestilen tial intruder was in 1832, three years after its first appearance in Western Europe. Prior to that it had confined its virulent progress to Asia. It came to us from Canada, w-herc it was imported by a foreign vessel which reach ed Quebec from England. Thence it traveled, via Montreal to New York, where it carried off three thousand five hundred and thirteen victims in a few months. Two years later it had laid its fatal grip on nine thousand seven Ihundred and one residents of New York ; and fifteen years Iater, once more hurried to a frightful death as many as fire thousand and seventy-one. In 1852, '53 and '54 it closed its hideous havoc with a further sacrifice of two thousand nine hundred and sixteen lives in New York, of whom two thousand~ and five hundred fell in the last named year. A TERRIBLE PREDICToN.-Professr'r Leoni das, an Indianapolis astrologer, after looking at the rings around the sun, makes the fol lowirg horrible prophecy: I observe by the planets that a dreadful Iplague will eommence in Russia originating from silks brought over from Cairo, Egypt and Turkey. It will extend across the Baltic Sea, and will desolate Germany, cause im mnense mortality in England, and then spread to the United States. This dreadful epidemic will spot t~ae people like a leopard, and turn the flesh to a purple black. The pestilence Iwill carry off such an amount of mortals that there will not be enough left to bury the dead or give them Christian burial. The streets of our cities, towns and villages will be swarmed with the dead and dying. The groans and yells. of horror will fill every breast with con sternation. On all sides confusion will abound. The death knell will cease to toll as the mala Idy rages in fury. Th~e infected will fall and die whenever they take it. The stench of the dead will become~so common that the survi Ivors will not heed it. WILLING TO PAv.-The IIartford Press tells a stcry of a recent accident on the New Lon don Railroad. An intoxicated Irishman was sitting on the track, when the engine struck him and threw him down an embankment. The conductor backed his train to pick up the dead body. The yictim was found alive how ever, only somewhat bruised, and taken to Ndrwich. Here the conductor kindly offered to send the man to his home, a few miles away, in a back, but he insisted on his ability to walk, and r-efused to be sent home. The conductor pressed the matter, when the Mile sian, who had stood the butting of the cow catcher so well, bristled up with :" Go away wita yer kerridge. I'll go home by myself; an' if I've done any dama~ge to your ouldi en gine, bedad I'll pay it on the spot." A FIX FOR A YtoUNG GENTLEMAN.-A very nice young gentleman, whose name we do not deem necessary to ventilate, recently invested a small sum in chickens, which he undertook to take home on the Dauphin street cars. After proceed ing a short distance the attention of all the pas sengers, a large proportion of whom were ladies, was called to him by one of his purchases raising a loud and continued cackle. In vain he tried to quiet the bird ; the ladies "tittered" and pull ed down their veils ; presently sonme one asked the price of eggs ! It was enough. The ladies could no longer suppress their risibles. The pul let had laid an egg in the young man's lap, and he hastily retreated amid roars of laughter. A dashing female arrived in Boston Satur day, with plenty of money, which she said she had made by keeping a house in New Or leans. She made the acquaintance of some sporting men, got them all drunk, and got dlrunk with them, lent them money, rode in a splended turn-out, and bet at the horse ra cts. Her career was stopped b; a gentleman from New York, whom she had robbed of $3, 400. le recovered -Tbout half of it, and declines to prosecute. THlE FLORIDA CoNvENTIoN.-WaShington, November 20.-The President has beeni ad vised by telegraph that the Florida Conven has annulled the Ordinance of Secession, abol ished slavery, dcclared no person incompetent to testify as a witness on account of color in any matter where a colored person is concern ed, repudiated the Confederate States debt, amended the Constitution in other respects, and adjourned.
