A scene of beauty and loveliness thai hos been rarely equalled was witnessed at the Hall of the Frenndschaft8bnnd last night. It had boen whispered for some days that the pupils of Mesdames G rn ARD & DOWELLS Seminan- would favor a select audience with a view of their annual floral coronation. This announcement was suffi? cient to excite the curiosity, and as the day ap? proached the coronation became the engrossing topic of conversation. The first dawned Uko a day suited for regal pomp and ceremony, and long before the hour ap? pointed the long hall was densely crowded, a large portion of tho audience being ladies. Prof. OTTO MHB and his two sons were in attendance, and the sweet sounds they succeeded in drawing from their instruments calmed the excitable spirit s who were anxious for tho tinkling of the bell. This magic sound was at length heard, and the curtain slowly rising displayed a scene of loveli? ness that at once entranced tho spectators. On either side were ranged white robed divini? ties the fairest of the fair whose floral decor? ations only added to their beauty. Scene the first represented the little courtiers in a vexatious dilemma. It was coronation day and the Queen ready to be adorned, but the crown was wanting. The fair diplomats discussed the ques? tion earnestly, when one, not yet hardened by con? tact with the world, boldly expressed her belief in Fairies, and besought their assistance in this ex? tremity. Her faith was unshaken and met with its reward. A Fairy burst upon them like a sun? beam from Heaven and demanded of the trembling group whyrher assistance had been invoked? On being told of the emergency, she calmed their ap ' prehensions and assured them of the extent of her power and intention to grant their request. By her assistance the difficulties soon disappeared and a crown suitable for the Fairy Queen herself is formed as hy magic. '-Scene second, opened upon the Courtiers arrang? ing for the'Corbnation. The Queen is conducted to the throne by a Maid of Honor, and is crowned with aQ the pomp and grandeur that tho mimic Court can command. After shebas received her flowery sceptre, tho Queen arises, greets her lov? ing subjects, and appoints her counsellors. A horn is heard in the distance, and the fair echo announces that visitors approach. They enter and make their obeisance to the Queen, and morn? ing represented as rosy dawuTheepangl?d with the dew, introduces herself. : Her more-sombre sister night, then advances, and the hours of joy, sorrow, study, prayer and sleep advance with the approach of the last, a deep slumber falls upon the Court, and-the dreams glide in out in a wired-like man? ner, repeating their ghostly incantations until they are dispelled and the sleepers aroused by tho Fairy Queen, who appears suddenly over her mor? tal fdater. The scene closes in a speech from the Queen and the curtain falls. - We have never Been a celebration that was more admirably managed and in which the actors re? cited the ir part s-many of them quite long-with? out a pause or a mistake. The young ladies had evidently entered into the spirit of the occasion, and their duties weie performed with a zest that made the actors perfert. The stage was beauti? fully decorated, the rear presenting the appearance of a. bower of roso?, and the white robed nymphs the presiding deities/ To say that the audience wert pleased would be granting but a small meed of praise, and the pressure on our columns alone prevents ?s from dilating more on a subject which was ?J beautiful and perfect. Mesdames G TRA RP ani DOWSLL, by their May celebration have ren? dered their SCT??Sxy ?ofre apolar than beforojfor the-onteido waj^Jt?h^c*Hght t_glimpse of the pupils and havji aeon something of ""their profici? ency.

LAFAB'S SEMINABY. We had the pleas-ore, yesterday, of attending 8 very ^interesting celebration in tho yard of Mr. IOATAB'S house, corner "Bu tl ed ge and Calhoun streets, j A very neat stage had been erected, pro? fusely yet tastefully decorated, suitable inscrip? tions being jvisibhrin .different parts.

The pupils of the Seminary and their invited guests then retired into the Seminary building and spent the evening together, partaking of re? freshments and enjoying themselves until a lato hour. We much regretted our inability to remain to "see it out," STATE NORMAL AND HIGH SCHOOL. Bev. H. M. MOOD, the Principal of thia School, undoubtedly merits the -credit due to a brilliant and successful performance, for such certainly the exercises of last night at Hibernian Hall must bo considered. Wo have seen many May celebrations, both in city and country, in America and in Eu? rope, but never one as brilliant, as well arranged, and as admirably executed in in its details, as this one. How much trouble and pains it must have cost to accomplish it, they alone can appreciate who have ever participated in so arduous a task. Tha house was full, nay uncomfortably crowded. The stage was largo, and elegantly arranged and decorated, with numerous alcoves, allowing of free ingress and egress. The lights, also, wcro well managed. MOLLEE'S excellont brass band contributed no little to the entertainment of thc evening; indeed, tho music was an essential part of the performance. The goddesses were not very punctual, not degning ty appear till nearly an hour after tho time they had boen advertised. They first notified the audience of thoir approach by singing. They then revealed themselves to us mortals in their bodily presence, and we do not exaggerate when wo state that when this brilliant galaxy of Olympic citizens dazzled the eyes of tho sublunars before them, the said terrestrials were ready, one and all. to foll down and worship these modern Greek Divinities. Charleston had opportunity last night {tongo intervalo) to form some conception of the ?lories of tho "Black Crook," or of the ballet Bcene in "Sicilian Vespers." Wo cannot give tho entire programme, aa it is too long; but cannot do loss than say that it was admirably carried out in every dotail. The dresses wero elegant, uppropriate and tasteful. We wore specially struck with the three Queens, with Cores, Venus, Diaua, Vesta, Nox, and Iris. The exercises commenced with tho entry of tho following celestials : Flora-Miss Mary Louisa Evana. Nymplv-Miss Mary E. Price. Veres-Miss Anna Mcbrtons. Nymph-Miss Ella Higgins. Minerva-Miss Alice Evans. Nymph-Miss M. F. Princo. Vernis-Miss Sallie C. Gilliland. Nymph-Miss Eliza B.

Thc Court of Examination in ti c Cues of JnoJt JSroWU; Henry Sheppard, John Mel i yilla ana* ''Benjamin Wayne, colored Chargfed with Larceny of Cotton. Tho following curious und exciting sceno in a Justice's: Court, where a lawyer refuses to plead under a symbol of- a Confederate . flag, we tako from tho Savannah Notes Jc Herald of Tuesday last : Pursuant to a demand of defendants' counsel in the above cases, Justice Isaac M. Mandi convened a Court of Examination in the above entitled causes at 10 o'clock on Yesterday morning. Pending thc hour tho prosecution stated that they would not bo prepared to go into examination 110 o'clock A M., and craved the indulgence of tho Court at some hour in the afternoon. His Honor after con? sultation with Mr. Phd. M. Bussell, Jr., one of the 'attorneys for defence, assigned i. o'clock as the hour. At four o'clock tho prosecution, represented by S. Yates Levy, Esq., ana Major John C. Ferrill, and tho deforce, roprosentcd by Phillip M. Bus? sell, Jr., Esq., and F. S. Hessoltino, Esq., were present. At 4i o'clock Mr. P. M. Bussell, Jr., addressed tho Court upon tho questions involved aud the hardship of tho cases, andcravcd.au immcdiuto hearing. S. Yates Levy, for tho prosecution, resisted tho position of counsel ponding the deliberations of tho Court. Col. Hess ol tine protested as one of tho attorneys for defunco to appearing boforo tho Court, alleging as a causo that the Court had sus? pended a picture of a Confcdcrato fla? m tho room, and at some length spoke as to tho propriety of a Union citizen condescending to appear in Court un uer such colors. [Wo would hoie remark that thc picture in question was a small stool engrav? ing, dlustrativo of tho Rev. Father Ryan's cele? brated uoom of tho "Conquered Banner," which Justice Marsh had hung upon the wall until even? ing, that he might take it homo.-BBNBXSB.] Col. Hesseltine, counsel for thc dcl'onco, atated that he never fought under that Hag, and that he would not appear in any Court room whero that nag was suspended. At this point of tho discussion ho was hiterrupt etl by Mr. S. Y. Levy, the couuscl for tue State, who arose and slated that ho "could not see what that matter had to do with tho question at tho bar ; but that he could well sympathise with thu opposite counsel (Mr. Ilosseltiue) as, irom the past history of that flag ho could easily conceive now objectionable the sight of it must bo to Mr. Hesseltine" Mr. Levy then stated that ho would leave thc Court until this important matter could bu settled with the presiding Justice, and he ac? cordingly left. As this stage of the proceedings, Justice Marsh staled that there was uot tho slightest disrespect intended, and that tho court certainly meant nu offence whatever; ?ic disclaimed any intention ou his pait to du anything wrong, or to offer auy iu sult windover. Tho small memento was thon taken down, and nothing but tho American Hog flying at the rear of a picture of the "San Jacinto" was left, at which no objections wore made. Mr. Phillip M. Bussoll, J?-., thereupon addressed tho court, acquiescing in the request of thc Stato's counsel for a postponement of tho case, and sug? gested a recess until half-past four, to tho end that tiuto might bc given to all parties that justice should bc meted out to all concerned, At four and a bah" o'clock the case was again called. The testimony of tho State not appearing, although Heveral ulliocrs had been dispatched to secure the testimony, the counsel for the defence (Mr. Bussell) argued at BOH?O length upon the power aud duties of thu Court under the laws cf thc Constitution, and in conclusion moved thc dis? charge uf the prisoners at thc bar. Col. F. S. Hesseltine, tho assojtato counsel for thu defence, followed, aud at some length reviewed tho case, making some remarks regarding tho mil? itary DUWO: of thu Unite.I States, claiming that he was there as a citizen of Georgia, to claim thu protection of tho law, unawed by bayonets, and not ns a compulsory moans. This speech occasioned quite a sharp retort from Mr. S. Y, Luvy, in which lie hel l up the inconsis? tency ul Mr. nessultine's claim to citizenship of Georgia, and re. ie wed very sarcastically his politi? cal allusions as being inapplicable to the caso. Mr. S. Y. Levy's speech waa folio .ved by Mr. Philip M. Russell, Jr., tho couusel for tho defence, who concluded tho aiguinont. He utterly ignored tho arguments of both counsel as to political mat? ters; hu contended that thc question of flags, sec? tions ur governments was a matter altogether for? eign to tho duties of tho Court. Ho then moved thu consideration uf his previous motion fur a dis? charge of tho prisoners. A special messenger, it is stated, has been dis? patched tu Atlanta, to serve tho writ of tho Su? premo Court ou Cen. Popo, in tho Georgia case. [Montgomery Advertiser, Our New York Leiter. [FBOai OUB BEG ULAH COirJlESPONDENT.] NEW YOBK, April 29.-The telegrams received from Washington to-day, foreshadowing tho de? cision of tho Supremo Court against th$ constitu? tionality of the reconstruction B.heme, has taken every ono by surprise, notwithstanding the cir? cumstance that every fair-thinking mau, be he politician or not, is well aware of thc lact that such a decision would bo tho only just and lawful one. Serious apprehensions however are entertained in regard to the consequences that might ensuo from a conflict in which two great departments of the government will be arrayed against thc third, for it is believed that Congress will carry on tho war of might against right to the bitter end, and will resort to such measures as will virtually invalidate the action of the Supremo Court. Although thero is no question as to thc fact that it would be lawful for tho Suprrmo Court to grant the injunction. prayed for, yet is it very doubtful whether the Literata of the South would bo best subserved..thereby or not. and some of tho best friends that the South has herc aro fearful as to tho result. They arguo that if a law bo passed authorizing the opening of a stable door and tho liberation of a number of untamed steeds, it were an. easy matter to opon tho door and execute tho law; but when the fleet and half frantic animals are at largo in thc opon fields, it may be easy to pass a law authorizing their hoing caught and.driven Jmck.-.but? a rather difficult mat tor to carry the law out by carrying tho sdWOs in igrvin ; tho more so when those by whose directions the doors had been thrown open stand at thc en? trance, with long polos in their hands, to drive iway such of tho animals aa happen to bo coming toward thom. Tho allusion is obvious, and needs no explanation. In ono or my letters about two weeks ago, I al? luded to tho attempted suicido of two romantic young ladies, who, as thoir relativos objected to their associating together in this world, resolved to leave it for the next and continuo their acquain* tance lhere. Ax there was no regular ticket office There a passage to tho world to como could be ?v inrod, the yoting ladies, as tho next best thing, or the next worse thing they could do. called at a druggist's and invested in a pliial of Paris green, with which they drank to each other's death-the fact that they had taken the medicine was pumped ont of thom first, and tho medicine pumped out, or in some manner got of them next, and on last Friday they wore pronounced out of danger, wherefore, they at once got into danger again In? taking a friendly and sociable drink of laudanum ; thoy took too large a dose however, and havo been saved again. One of the girls declares that besides forbidding her to associate with her chosen friend, her aunt used to treat her badly, and on ono occa? sion locked her up for ten days and nights, on an allowance of bread nt<d water, bocauso she had re? mained ont till nine o'clock in .the evening-where? fore she resolved not to bear the ills sho had, and consulted her friend, who'not only advised her to fly to others that neither of them knew anything bf, but for company's sake agreed to fly with her. An immense bnil fing is'in process of croc ci on at tho .corner of Broadway and Seventeenth Street, and" extending through to Fourth Aveuuo, to bo used for tho great Catholic fair. Tho park to Which this building is contiguous was bequeathed to the city on tho condition that it shouldnovor bo obstructed oy tho erection of any building around it; and it is said that tho heirs of the testator may bring suit for the recovery of the property, on ac? count of tho abegod infringement of tho contract. As tho building is only to be temporary, bo wo ver, it is probable that tho heirs may gain nothing by tho insano attempt to make a fortune out of tho affair. DION .

Their performances are said to bo so won? derful as to border nu tho miraculous, ?md, al-' though it takos something particularly groat to exe te tho amusement-satiated people of this wide awake metropolis, it is, nevertheless, true that tho curiosity of tho multitude to seo tho great Japan? ese circus men is such as promises an extraordi? nary rich harvest of greenbacks to the managers. BrsToar begins her farewell engagement on next Thursday night, but great as she is tho excitement bas- pretty nearly died out, and people will not rush to seo her as thoy .did during bor engagement last winter. 'Yet is tho eminent tragedienne qui LC as woll worth seeing now as then ; but thus it is with the people of New. York, who it thc Messiah were to como hero, would grow tired of him in a month or two. The steady declino in cotton has o von shaken tho confidence of those whoso rule it is to purchase during a panic or in any rapidly falling market.

A correspondent ol' tho Xew York Keening i'ost writes to that journal front Columbia, S.

Even while writing this letter a gentleman bas called at my residence, at a late hour of the night, and hero i's the sum of his story : A wife and four small child? ren; no bread since morning-nu hope for thc mor? row.
