ITlassr ilScctiii? of Frc<'<Jmon.
It has been an uncommon thiDg of late
to see mnrses of freedmcn and women^on
the sidewalks in this town, bnt on Saturday
last we saw the largest gathering of
sable gentlemen and ladies that our eyes
ever rested on. The open square in front
of the Court House aud of the site of the
old market and the spacious cross streets,
were packed with a living mass of colored
people to liarkcn unto the new dispensation,
the gospel according to Gen. Saxton,
&c. Although it is written that "sinners
shall not sit in the congregation of the
D C
rightous," we observed present also mainv
of our largest planters.
The occasion of the gathering was,
A /*Mnmonrinnt.
LUU.L VyflJiL# JU> i\ x lonn., cuw vv(ui<j(iuv?ww?
of this post, might communicate t? the
frcedmcn, the recent orders and contract
regulations issuqd in relation to them for
the ensuing year, as well ns the objects
and intentions of the Government in thcir
behalf.
The orders, &c., were read to them
and explained in a very full and satisfactory
manner. Capt. Fiske's address
was clever and unexceptionable,
being a full, appreciative and jnst
statement of the necessities of the
situation and the facts of the case,
a full recognition of the lights of
the -Creedmen, with a statement of
their duties and obligations. His views
were fair and just, both to the freedmen
and to the planters, a*nd his advice to the
freedmen such as, if followed, will re*
dound to their benefit and the great*
good of the community. We have heard
but ono-opinion expressed in relation to
Capt. Fiske's Course on this occasion, and
that opinion is, that he fully discharged
his duty to the freedmen, the community
and to his position as commandant. We
take great pleasure in thus expressing
our decided approval of the manner in
which this whole affair was conducted,
i ; i ti u i. i'I .Hi. L.i -i.-i'j 'ir
prove all tlmt. has been done throughout
the State in this connection. We earnestly
and sincerely dtsire evenhauded

of our people depend the solution of this
yet very uncertain qnestiou.
John cniisnitand Harmon Jones,?
two intelligent *frcedmen?during the
same day, addressed their fellow citizens,
and i-epeatcd the good advice which they
hasc on several occasions given them.
Let us hope, us the delusive bopi s
?hiclj have been so fondly cherished by
the frocdmen that the government intended
giving them land'or support them
in idleness have been, though at a late
day dispelled, and as the idlcni ss- and
vagrancy of the past year has already
brought some portion of its punishment
in tho inception of want and sutf'eriug,
that the frcedmen will go to woalc and
cnehiin themselves in the nnlv war erven
to tlicm. *
But a very limited supply of cotton
has been offered for sale in this market
during the past week. The few sales
made, run from 33 to 38 cents, the
grades from low ordinary to fair.
Tun Gale in New Yok.?In referring
to the terrific gale which swept over New
York a fortnight ago, the World says:
The gale v/as terrific. The heavy snow
j storm that came on so suddenly on Wednesday
evening, subsided abont two
o'clock yesterday morning, when the
wind began gradually to ri.?e. In an
hour's tijue it had increased to a hurricane,
which, for a time, swept all before
it. In several parts of the city dilapidated
roofs were uushingled of the few that
remained on them, and unsteady chimney's
were toppled over into the streets.
The damage to the shipping in the harbor
and Lower Bay was also very great,
j No less than niue vcsscTs were wrecked
off Sandy Hook, and the lives of three
persons who formed part of the crew of
one of them were lost by drowning during
the tempest. The sea ran very high
during the entire day, and several poor
fellows were seen from the shore tn the
inclining clinging to portions of the wreck
were left to their terrible fate, as any hoar
that would have dared to put out to their
up>i9ttfrjce would have been dashed to
pieces by the waves. Later in the duy
however, the life boat was sent out to
some of the vessels to render any aid that
would be required. Several vessels in
the harbor dragged their anchors, but
owing to the greatest exertions on the
part of the crew thej were kept off the
shore, and thus saved from utter destruction.
The history of Mexjco shows that during
the last forty years, Mexico lias had
thirty-S'-vcn dilli-rent forms of govern
mcut, thirty-two of which were republic
and seventy-five Presidents. Its revolutions,
during that time, have been more
j than two hundred.
i
Gen. J. E B. Stuart.
From a sketch of this great cavalry
officer; published in the New York News,
we clip the following: .
lie laughed and danced and made
merry wherever be went. He would'
fight all day, and at night, if circumstances
permitted, ride ten miles with his
banjo player and dance with a part)^->of
voting girls till the "small hours." Tf
his fatigue had been great he would
lean back on a sofa, fall asleep in a moment,
and wake to dance as gaily as
before. A greater faculty for sleeping
jost when he wished I never saw, * Half
the time on matches he slept in the
saddle, and his aSroitness in not falling
vtas ramarkable. With ouo knee thrown
over the pommel of the saddle, arms
folded and chin resting oq the breart, he
Would sleep mile Mirer mile, ana wane as
much refreshed apparently as though he
had risen from a good bod.
There was something of the cavalryman
in everything that Stuart did, as
in his personal appearanco and habits.
It was seldom that he doffed his high
boots even in winter quarters, and he
invariably danced in his spurs. A pair
made of solid gold, and richly carved,
were presented to him; but these lie only
wore upon extraordinary occasions. His
sabre was a French one, slight, slender,
pliable nud light. This rarely left his
'side. 11c preferred horses of medium
size, rather light?lilced mares and would
never have stallions. Ilis hgrses, "Skylark,"
"Star of the East," "Lady Margaret,"
"Lily of the Valley," were all excellent.
The equipments were plain and
good, a McClellan saddle without leather
covering, curb bit, nod single rein, no
martingale; behind the saddle a red
blanket rolled in an oil cloth, aod on the
pommel a cavalry cape and oil cloth
overall." /These are trifles, it may he said
but the world is nmda tip of "trifles."
The General's seat in ilic saddle was
not onlv good it, Was perfect. Ilis figure
was short and heavy, but in the saddle
'Hie 'was ibc model of a cavalier, ^tlo
! seemed to "grow there." Ilis person
J moved with the movements of his horse,
I so perfectly that horse and rider seemed
one. He was an excellent swordsman,
and would have loon, gay, "<>? "?*?=?" n
,.L.i nci u'is lilil!) ili a charge. A regiment
oil men like Stuart, with tint drawn sabre
would go through or over anything. It
is cortaiu at least that they w#uld die
trying.

Queens and literary woman are veryseldom
liaudsome, but tbertf are some
exceptions to the general rule: The Empress
of Austria is ODe of the most beau*
tiful of European princesses, and famed
for her kindness of temper, notwithstanding
her rather haughty bearing. She is
tall, slender, graceful, with a very white
skin, a good deal of color, large blue
I eyes, and an amazing head of light hair,
j which she wears in eight massive braids,
wound round ami round Uer head, forming
a magnificent diarlcm of hair, such
as very few women could, match from
their own resources. She is also said to
be highly accomplished. She speaks all
the principal tongues ot Europe, aud is
particularly fond of the English Ian
gunge, which she speaks as perfectly as
though it were her native dialect. She
is at) excellent musician, paints and dra ws
extremely well, and is one of the boldest
and most skillful horsewomen of Austria.
She possesses a stud of very valuable
horses, and a pa-lc of splendid hounds ;
and she is said to take the warmest interest
in the racing and hunting of Eutope,
and to know by heart the names of
the heroes of the turf, biped and quadruped,
of all the countries of Europe,
A Comet Yisiule.?Biela's come,t
which is now said to be visible to the oaken
eye, may be seen in the neighborhood
of the constelation Pegasus, and
close to the bright star Markhab, one of
the bright luminaries which form the
well known square of Pegasus. It is
pursuing a South easterly course, and
will cross the celestial square about the
middle of December. It will continue to
approach the earth until the end of February
when i's distance from us will be
only 18,000,000 miles,

The coat of living in Washington just
now is rather startling, if correspondents
writing from that, city, speak' correctly.
A letter to a western paper states, that
a Congress member from Illinois has beeD
i in Waegington some days, enjoying the
luxury of a room in ihe third 6tory of
Willurd's hotel at the moderate quid pro
quo of eighteen dollafs per day." It says
further: "This is not an isolated ease,
however, for your member from Chicago
is a regular boarder, and occupies a room
on the second floor, about ten by fourteen,
with not unusually laTge bed* in it
for which be remunerates the proprietor
at the rate of only ten dollars per day,
or three thousand six bundled and fifty
dollars per auburn. Your coirespondent

the space of over about fifteen miuutes;
"It rained one- day, and cotton umbrellas
went up to seven dollars. Members
of Congress get three thousand dollars
salary, from which a tax of five per
cent is taken. The milcuge is counted
by air line, and"'to show .to those who
complain that the tax commissioner is
exacting, and also to show that Uncle

and-for the last three years in? the pos- I
session of the late Glosac Uiceiolli. a
prominent professor of music of this city,
by whom it was greatly prized.' This
celebrate^ Cremona is well known by
musical gentlemen throughout the
country, and the fact that it was to be
sold under the hammer caused quite a
large attendance of the musical fraternity

A Siiu>riSK,to a Wood Tiiikk.? A
gentleman living in Terra Hnute, who-e
stove wood melted awav faster than was
watrrantod by the npldness of the weather,
charged a fine looking stick with a
few ounces of powder and left it ou the
pile. The'Express thus relates the'sequel
:
Wednesday forenoon an explosion was
heard in a bouse near hj, and a kitchen
window was spared niv panes. On going
to the spot a sight might have been seen.
The stove had joined a peace conference;
a kettle of poi k 'and cabbage had shot
up through the roof like an arrow. A
dish of apples stewing on the stove gave
the ceiling the appearance of a map of
California' A Cat that was sleeping tinder
the stove went through the broken
window as though after the devil or a
doctor. Tjie cat has not been heard
from sfr.ee, but a smell of burnt cat hair
pervades that house very thoionghlv.
A flat iron was hoisted into a pan of
dough?a chair lost three legs, the wood
looks sick, while the roof of tile house
looks like a bursteJ apple dnmpliug.
The London Examiner thinks that a
great change has certainly come over'thopolitical
habits of Napoleon the Third.
Some years back lie. evinced great eagerness
to incet his brother sovereigns. lie
besought personal interviews, and went
out of bid way to find them. lie was
fond of congresses, conventions, diplomatic
mei tiiigs, which used to set the world
a talking. But he now seems to have
become blase. 11c no longer seems to
think th-,it there is anything' either to
learn or to enjoy in pcrsoual converse
with his brother sovereigns. 1 Je no longer
seeks their concert, or cares for their
visits. .
