A habit once formed becomes, with most men, an inexorable tyrant, no matter how detrimental to the physical or moral constitotion. We are free to admit that newspaper editors have their fall share of bad habits, and with a certain class of the editorial fra' ternity the practice of disregarding the truth, of mis- representing the language and sentiments of their brethren of the quill, of garbling into a sinister meana lag what in its actual sense was perfectly innocent, is not one of the least odious, if harmless, habits that are frequently paraded before the public. We do not say that this unhappy disposition is confined to any particular latitude or longitude, but we do think that certain of the editorial gentleman of Cincinnati are particularly afflicted with it. In the Cincinnati Com- mercial of a late date we find the following para- graph: The New Orleans Crescent has gradually lost faith in the ability of the mild, amiable and inoffensive people of the Gulf States, to protect themselves from the impudent aggressions of the reckless, ravenous and blood-thirsty hordes of abolition bullies of the North. But the Crescent has found a champion. Speaking of the awful imminence of the invasion of the Southern States by the legions of Abolition-the Crescentsays: And then the Commercial goes on to give, in our own words, our opinion that if such a thing were possible as an invasion of the Southern country by an army of Northern fanatics, we should find-if it were also possible that our own courageand resources were notcompetent to the emergency-an invincible champion in that dread destroyer, the yellow fever. That is all very well, and we re-assert it. But we did not say nor intimate that we believed in " the awful imminence" of such invasion,nor did we samy anything to justify the inference that we had lost faith in the ability of the Southern people to protect themselvesin an emergency of that description. We were simply replying to an absurd menace in th e Louisville Journal. We do not believe Abolition' fanatics will invade the Southern country, except for the accomplishment of thievish enterprises; but if they should do so in well appointed and organized armies, for the purpose of conquest, the people of Mississippi and Louisiana would not wait for the pesn tilence to beat their " legions " home again. In the Cincinnati Timeswe find another charming specimen of thecorrectness and good faith ofthe Cincinnati scribblers when enlightening their readers upon matters in any way pertaining to the South. Here it ist: New Orleans is said to be almost overrun by aconh- drela. The boldest robberies are committed every night, and the papers advise people whotravel late at night orearly in the morning to keep sharp eyes on all persons they meet. Some of the rascals have delicate tastes ; one of them, a few days ago, carried off four thousand cigars. Nothing appears to alarm the mis- creants but the occasional talk of a Vigilance Com- mittee. The terrific certainty and expedition wpth which crime is discovered and punished by these popular courts chill the heart of the highwayman and palsy the band of the aasosin. The idea conveyed inthis smart paragraph that our police is inefficient and our administration ofjuoc tice unusually bad is altogether a false one, and ihe allusion to "the occasional talk of a Vigilance Com- mittee" is in all conscience rich enough under the circumstances. As to the administration of justice, it may be had enough in New Orleans, but it is in- finitely worse in Cincinnati, where within the past year two or three most shocking murders were per- mitted, in face of the clearest proofs, to go without adequate punishment, and where, in one case, if we remember correctly, the Judge felt it his duty to re- buke the jury for a verdict stupidly in deflance of the law and the facts. Arrlval of tlhe Steamship Cahawb. The United States mail steamship Cahawba, J. D. Bulloch, commander, arrived yesterday from New York via Havana, leaving the latter port on the 10th. The Cahawba did not enter the harbor, but dis- charged her passengers and exchanged her mails out- side the Moro. The city is very healthy, and a great deal of sur- prise was manifested at the existing quarantine regu- lations of this port. There were lying in the harbor the following lsips: H. B. M. ship-of.the-line," Co.ar," ninety.one guns, Capt. Chas. Frederick; Frigate "Diadem,"thirty- wo guns, Capt. soorc.tse, C. B., and sloop " Itacer," sixteen guns, Hon. T. A. Pakenham, under orders to report at Portsmouth with all possible dispatch. The Sugar market was dull the past week. Stock at Havana and Matanzas 335,000 boxes. Shipped last week 32,000 boxes. Exchange has derlined; London 13 to 131 prem.; New York, 1 to 1l do.; New Orleans, short sight, 2k to 3 do. Freights have improved, and the demands for American vesselswill continue, although a large fleet has arrived. There is not the slightest political news, Some little excitement still remains regarding the filibus- ters, but no sympathy seems to be felt for them in either public or private circles. Outside the Moro the Cahawba saw a propeller bound in; supposed her to be the "Indianolp," from Charleston. May 19, aInt. 25-30, Ion.85-30, exchanged signals with a ship steering N. W.. showing white burgee with red letters; had the letters C I. in the fore topsail. May 20, about fifteen miles from Pass- a-l'Outre, exchanged signals with steamship Empire City, for New York via Havana. •rn•Nu To DLArn.-Mrs. Barbara Bauerfraund was burned to death in New York on the 13th inst., by her clothes taking fire while filling a fluid lamp.

In the elegant reception rcom into which we wira first ushered by our artist, wewere struck with the splendid ex- t hibition of nocelties in the way of portsnits, which arethere dbp ayed. Enarsedic thetr magnlicent frames or gilt and suea penaded from the walls,are several superb pictures, which we, a in our old fogyism, took for oil paintings by some second M;elnel Angelo, tut1 liate•rmted that they were simply the prortndy of improved photography.

The building of the opera bos at the corner of Bo•rbonand Toulouse streets is going ahead briskly. Th foundations have been laid, and the front walls have amost reached a hightof one story. The great a.n of the theater attracts the attention of every body; and as all our operagoing population feel mOr or less interest in it, we think some account of th shape, plas, and style of the building, will be acceptable. It will be a handsome struoctre of the Italian order 9f architecture, with a front of one hundred and silty.six feet on Bourbon street,one hundred and eighty-seven on Toulouse street, and ahight of about eighty feet Ia its highest part. Whilst the external walls will be some distance back of the usual line, thua widening the banquettes of the two streets the Bourbon street front will project over and rest upon an arcade, thepillars of which will be at the curb stone. A gallery six feet wide and sixty feet long will project from this arcade over the street, as o shelter to ladies entering and leaving carriages in lbad weather. The upper side of the building will be divided from the adjoining buildings by a flagged pas- page seventeen feet wide. The edifice will rise like a Coloeens over every thing in that vicinty. In the basement there will be seven elegant stores; two on Toulouse street, two at each of the front corn. era, and one on the lde passage. It is supposed that IMr. Bellanger, the confectioner, will lease the whole of them, for his own use and for oublasing to others- Two broad and hilgt lglepfW pe eo tltute the front entrance to the theater, or rather to the adst andes d does l circler. eptqueda asdb . B.e tween these flightsof steps is the pit entrance, going in from the level of the street. Going up the main entrance, you enter a very broad lobby, extending all round the dress circle. Leaving the lobby, you enter a corridoralmost as broad,andare in the auditorium, by far the largest and finest proportioned ever de- signed in this city. It is elliptical in shape, andfully as large as that of the Tacon at Havana. The hight from pit to ceiling is fiftysix feet, the width ninety feet. The stageprojects in a curve, and the parquette seats are ranged in a curve to correspond; there being a broad enclosure for the orchestra between, along the whole front of the stage. There are five latticed boxes on each side of the parquette,andopen boxes, or bagnoires, all round the pit. There are four tier-" The first, or dress circle, is very capacious, contain- ing two rows of stalls, of four seats each; fifty two stalls in all, with broad passages between the rows, and twenty latticed boxes. The second tier, or dress circle, contains a front row of sixty chairs, with a range of eight open stalls and twenty latticed boxes. All the latticed boxes in the two dress circles have parlors behind; each box its parlor. The third tier is plainly furnished with seats without boxes or divi- sions. It is for the cheap admission of white people, and is equal to the pit. The fourth and highest tier is similarly arranged, and is intended for colored people. Some idea of the roominess of this audito- riues and its arrangements may be derived from the fact that with all its seats, stalls and boxes, it will seat only one thousand six hundred people. Great numbers, however, can stand in the corridorsand en- trances, and it is expected that when thoroughly crowded the auditorium will hold about two thouse and ortwo thousand five hundred. The stage is 85 feet wide and 60 feet deep. The proscenium is large and very handsome. Four fluted Corinthian columns, 32 feet high, on square pedestals 10feet Ligh, will support the arch, two on each side. Between the columns,on each side, will be three tiers of elegant proscenium boxes, two in each tier; making 12 stage boxes in all, each with its parlor in the rear. Of the style of the furnishings, paintings, etc., of the auditorium, we cannot now speak, though we are assured that everything will be on the first scale of taste, beauty, and conveni- ence. On each side of the stage are ranges of large property rooms, whilst at the rear is a very large un- obstructed space containing racks for sceneriesnot in use. The dressing-roomsare rather remote from the stage, being on the two sides of the building, in the second story, their windows overlooking Toulouse street and the upper side passage. Convenient enough to the stage, however, is the green-room, as well as a large retiring-room for the orchestra. The ventilations and escapes of the building are abundant and well arranged. On each side of the auditorium, but still enclosed within the building, are two open yards, each as long as the auditorium, which has numerous windows opening on them. On the far sides of these yards are the rearsof the stores fronting on the street and the passage; and above, the back windows of the dressing-rooms. The actors' entrance is on Toulouse street. Besides the broad front entrances to the parquette and first circle, and the winding stairways to the second circle, all three are connected on each side, near the proscenium, with other broad stairways, and a hall leading out at each side, one on Toulouse street and the other on the passage. The proscenium boxes also join the connections here. This is an admirable arrangement. In case of an accident or a panic the house could bhe emptied in a very short time, withou t harm to any- We now come to what will render this theater im- measurablymore comfortable and luxurious than any we have yet had in this city ; a series of arrange- ments more like those of a hotel than an opera-house. The whole second-story front of the building is set apart to relaxation, conversation and the other means employed to relieve the time between the acts. Over the mainentrance, andfronting the street, is a saloon, or " crush-room,"finishedin the most beautifulstyle, 00 feet long, 20 feet wide, and 28 feet high. Con. necting with this saloon at its lowerend, at the Ton- louse street corner, are the club-roomsfor the stock. holders of the theater ; a general meeting room, a parlor,andall kinds of couveniences,includinga range of water-closets. There is a private entrance by which the stockholdersgain these rooms from Toulouse. At the upper end of the grand saloon, and correspond- ing in numberand situation with those of the club quarter, is a series of rooms for the retirement of ladies visiting the theatre ; a largeliarlor, connecting with a cloak-room, and a boudoiror toilet-room,with all the other conveniences that ladies can require. The centralsaloon opens out on the gallery which we have already mentioned as projecting over the street. Overthe above central saloon,and fully as capsn cious, is a small theater, or place prepared exclusively for rehearsals. To describe all the minor arrangements of the thea- ter, such as the different offices, business rooms, etc., would take up more room than we can at present spare. The cost of the building and ground will be about $200,000 ; the furnishings will come to $50,000 more. It will be a truly magnificent theater, and one which will add much to the f.me of its alreadyfamous arch- itects and builders, Gallier & Esterbrook. IonRronL MUh DEn.--The Memphis Enquirer of the 20th says : We announced the other day the terrible suspicion entertained against a certainparty lodged in the jail at Prentiss; it is fully verified. The murderer, named Samuel Moore, and his victim, David Dunbar, brother of Hugh C. Dl)nbar, Ibilliard salgon keeper, on Adamsstreet, were engaged upon a trading boat down the river, near Napoleon. Some days ago Dunbar disappeared very suddenly, and suspicion at once beccomiug rife, attached itself to his comrade, for some cause not yet explained. Moore was seized at Prentiss, and incarcerated in the jail at that place, there to remain uutil the proper iavestigationsshould be made. The J. G. Cline, on her up-trip, saw a bar- rel floating in the water.which the captain concluded to save. They picked it up at Gaines' Lading, and brought it to Prentiss. Upon opening the barrel a horrible spectacle revealed itself. A human body with its head mashed and cut in a most ghastly man- aer, as if by repeated blows of an nx or hastibt. Several persons present identilied the body as that st young Douibr. Tih remains were brought to this city last cvs-ni•g, by th I),aoiel I;,une-, f•i isoter- oes. lt ,r, iret isi .id, will cerrainly swio oi 1,i this-i ,dia',,ica. l deI-. all ihe s irt'slledles of which only g5b to bXhrlthowly dihtbcrsitely and coolly it was p!auaed cd' sxcatcd. pal 1_tagen. YmersmAoiwas a hot day, with just enaugh eked and breee to prevent it from being a regular roster. Mercry p to the ninaels. A Prnn broke out at about halfpast four o'clock yesterday morning, In the Cnrtis House, kept by Ml. Chirles Curtis, at the corner of Front Levee and Creamn streets, The coffeehouse, a threestory brick, and one of the most tylish and popular of al the.cofeeboluee along the steamboat landing, was totally destroyed, with all its content. The adjoiniong building, occupied in the basement by Mlciegea, the oyster and core seller, and in the upper stories by the copper, tin, and sheet Iron work utablishment of F. A. Kraft, was partly destroyed; the,apper storybeing gone, and the contents of the lower storiesdamaged. The ElDorado Exebange,ou the opposite corner, was badly scorched. The upper story, occopied as the ball of the Screwnme's Anuo ciation,was so badly damaged as to compel the Anu. clation yesterdayto look out for otherquarters. The stove andtinware houseof Simonda& Hite, on Cram. man street, adjoining the El Dorado, was also badly scorched in front-a nmarrow escape for Mera. S. & H., who had previously sffered no mnch by ire in that neighborhood. The grocery of Roqaeat & Co., on Cromman street, immediately next to the Curtis House, owed its prenervaton to a good fire-wall. The whole loss by the fire was about $10,000.Mr. Curtis estimates his los at $5000-no lmasmroe. The building was lam ed. Mr. Cart sand his fbmily had a aow meepe from bourntg to death. Hime~sl,wrfe and two tle girls, one his daughter and the other his niece, were sleeping seaonty when the fire broke out. So frle and rapid was the spread of the flemes, that when Mr. Curtis awoke the whole of the lower story was ina blae. iushing down stairs in his night clothes through the smoke, he found It wa too late to smre anything baut the live of his tamily. Roehing up again, he felt his way to the grla' room, got one of the girls and carried her down. Going back, the smoke and heat becoming worse each moment, he rescued the other girl and boreber down. A third time hewent back for his wife. The beatand smoke in the pasmages were now so Intense that he could neither breathe nor see; yet hegroped ahesd, feeing the walls and doors, found his wife, and carried her down stairs. Jst as they got to the stairs, the flames shot across the paamge below. It was a criti- cal moment, the only chance for life being,to make a rush through the flames. Mr. Curtis at once decided to do so. He felt him- sel succumbing to the heat and the want of broath; he collected his energies for final effort, made a rush through the flame, reachedthe banquette staggering, and fell into the street with his wife in his arms. It was found that both were seriously burnt; Mr. Cur- tie'face and right hand being crisped, and Mr. Cur- tisbeing burnt about the head, and injured most of the two. They were taken to the Rio Grande coffee house, close by, the proprietor of which gave up his family room to them. Yesterday both were doing tolerablywell, under medical attendance, both being bandagedup, and both complaining of internal pain from the inhalation of hot air and smoke. It was certainly a very narrow escape from a most awful death, for in a minute or two after Curtis got out with his wife, the building was one fierce roar or flame. All that Mr. Curtis saved of his earthly goods consisted of his night clothes that he had on. HBis wife and the girls came offno better; not a solitary article was saved, other than the gowns they wore. The fire started in the front part of the cofeebonuse, about where the cigar stand was. Its origin ie as yet a mystery, though Curtis and others are of opinion that it was startedby some means by an incendiary. A Paeuneas' Srnaer, of a rather serious nature, occurredon Saturday evening. The particulars, as far as we could ascertain, werethese : The types of one of the most ancient and respect- able newspaper offices in the city, having heard for sometime past that Dan Hickok bad run out of good cordial and fresh fish, and that, though a frst rate fellow, he did'ut know how to keep a hotel, held a chapel on the subject. The only legitimate way of settling the question, was to appoint a committee to go down to the lake and investigate. Being unable, after doe debate, to decide as to which of them should constitute said committee, they resolved them- selves into a special joint committee of the whole, and went down in a long-drawn-out body, two in each buggy. They had an interview with Dan Hickok. He satisfied them that the reports about him and his hotel were slanderous. They made friends with him, and apologized by going largely into his good things. They parted good friends; Dan having furnished a clean proof of his capacity as a hotelhkeeper, with- out subjecting the Sons of Faust to the trouble of a reviser. All would have ended well, but for one unlucky circumstance. A celebrated and well-known loafer, who hangs about all the coffeehouses in town, but delights particularly in the lake hotels, pressed him- self into the society of the printers, and insisted upon accompanying them, as he has done on innu- merable occasions, with all classes and qualities of lake visitors and coffeehouse patrons. Though gen- erally detested, he has a way of getting around gen- tlemen in their cups which few can resist. This fellow, whose name is Drunke N. Hickups, came into town with our typographical friends, and was the jolliest and most reckless of the party. Though he has come in by the Shell Road a thousand times, he is still a dreadfully bad driver, and has sub- jected his unsuspecting friends to all sorts ofcollis- ions, upsets, spills, scatters, smashes, and sore bones generally. On this occasion he was more than usu- ally jolly, and, according to his usual insanity, fan- cied there was nothing on the road save the flying buggy in which with his two chosen friends he was seated. The result was, that whilst scudding aldog the Bienville road, near Claioornestreet, he failed U see an omnibus which was coming the opposite way, from town. Omnibussesare not in the habit of get- ting away from buggies; the latter generally have to take the consequences,when they fail to get out of the way. On this occasion, the omnibus and the buggy saluted each other. The kiss was fierce. The omnibus went on, smacking its lips; the buggy fainted; and Mr. Hickups and his two victims were the sufferers. Hickups did'nt care a cent about it; but the two printers did. At the very moment of the collision, the printers voted it an outrage and struck. They did not strike against the omnibus, which hurried on to avoid a row, but they struck against the road, which had tolerated an omnibus so rascally. They suffered, however. They were knocked into pi, and distributed all over the road. The other printers, who had been striving to make rven columns with them in the chase, came along, set them up again, and brought them to town, two blank pages in an octavo form, of a work which might have been en- titled, " A Trip to the Chief Lagoon of Louisiana; with Geological and Hickokological Explorations, and a Treatise on the Shells of the Carbankeliferous Period." The buggy was brought in, a bundle of badly.damaged furniture; and yesterday, (Hickups having sneaked off, as usual, after his victims had been planed downs in their beds by their friends,) the two victims, with lithographic impressions of the Shell Road all over their faces, knuckles,and bodies, in red ink, were raking up quoins with which to lock up the mouth of theowner of thesmashed-up buggy. There was a heavy demand for " subs," yesterday, in one of our most ancient and respectable newspaper offices. RucounnE SEInuRS, having returned considerably rejluvenated, from a trip to his " Old Kentucky Home,' resumed his magisterial seat on Saturday; for which his able and worthy Assistant, Mr. Mun- roe, was properly glad, and the regular patrons of the court rather sorry.

J~At$ H0O4 About two hundred add fifty citizens joined Ia giving to Mr. James Robb, on Saturday evening, a parting testimonial of their regard for mbr; hebehng about to take his departure, permanently, fbr (hltFa - ala. It was a dinner of the most sumpteoup and magnificent description, given at the St. Chlirie Hotel. The guests, or rather those who had joined to give the dinner to the one distingaished guest, comprised representatives of the wealth and of the dlfieent professionsand callings of the city. Judge Spofford presided. The dinnerwas preeded by grace from the Right Rev. Bishop Polk. Judge Spofford made an introductory address, eulogistic of the gentleman to whom the dinner was given, sad concluded by Introducing that gentleman formally to the company. Mr.Robb made a speechof some length, iull of truth and feeling, eloquently expressed. He was listened to with the profoundest attention, and at the close honored with the heartiest applause. After that, toastingand speeching was the order, all around the splendidly laden board. The most prominent of the speakers were General Miles, the British Consul, Mr. More,and Prof. De Bow. Each in his turn said something pertinent to the occasion, as well as lively and refreshing. The dinner lasted to a late hour. It was an emi- nently brilliant affair; a high compliment, bestowed upona gentleman in every respect worthy of it. Arrival of the Steamsshlp Ceatmeeolees. The Louisiana Tehuantepe Companys- mall steamship Coatzscoalcos, Capt. Wilson, oermed the South-west Pass Bar at 5 o'clock on Friday after- noon, after a passage of seventy-five hours from Mint- titlan. Thissteamer brings her usual complement of pas- sengers andmails from California, to the 5th instant, inclusive. The Costzacoalco towed down and suaceegdia successfully landing the Louisiana Tehuantepee *eon- pany's new light.draught steamship Mluatitgs, a feat heretofore deemed impracticable. On thepas* sage over, the Coatzacoalcoa experienced pledsant weather, nothing of note occurring, except the accl- dental falling overboard of a young boy attahels to the Minatltlan, but who, through the chasrateraltio promptness of Capt. Wilson, was speedily rescued from his perilous position. News from the Isthmus is entirely local. The re- gular Corpsof Engineers for the TehuantepeOCom- pany anrrived per steamer Coatzacoalces, under the charge of Mr. McLeod Murphy, whose reappearanee, after a short visit to his family, has given renewed confidence to all parties there. An American marriage was celebrated on board the steamer, Capt. Wilson kindly volunteeriag his spacious saloons for the event. The ceremony was performed by the Hon. A. C. Allen, United States Consul, (the padre, or priest refusing, both parties being American protestants,) by permiseson of the Honorable the AmericanMinister, Mr. Melone, who not only graced theoccasion by hispresence, but witnessed the signing of the contract. On the 9th, the Minister, Mr. McLane,accompanied by his private secretary,Mr. Elgee, left Vera Cr on the United States steam sloop-of.war Brooklyn, e an official visit to the United States Consul at Tampico. He remained at that place two days, andthence pro- ceeded to Minatitlan to communicate with his Go. vernment by the steamer Costoacealcoe. He left Minatitlan, on his return to Vera Crus, on the even. ing of the 16th. It was said at Minatitllm that McLane was about to make a treaty which would hbe favorable to both parties. GOINs O THe ST•Ec.-lt is said that Mrs Sicklet is about to try her tortuce as an e ctress.

C•aONIO M3BREPRRSENTATION.

A habit once formed becomes, with most men, aninexorable tyrant, no matter how detrimental to thephysical or moral constitotion. We are free to admitthat newspaper editors have their fall share of badhabits, and with a certain class of the editorial fra'ternity the practice of disregarding the truth, of mis-representing the language and sentiments of theirbrethren of the quill, of garbling into a sinister meanalag what in its actual sense was perfectly innocent, isnot one of the least odious, if harmless, habits thatare frequently paraded before the public. We do notsay that this unhappy disposition is confined to anyparticular latitude or longitude, but we do think thatcertain of the editorial gentleman of Cincinnati areparticularly afflicted with it. In the Cincinnati Com-mercial of a late date we find the following para-graph:

The New Orleans Crescent has gradually lost faithin the ability of the mild, amiable and inoffensivepeople of the Gulf States, to protect themselves fromthe impudent aggressions of the reckless, ravenousand blood-thirsty hordes of abolition bullies of theNorth. But the Crescent has found a champion.Speaking of the awful imminence of the invasion ofthe Southern States by the legions of Abolition-theCrescent says:

And then the Commercial goes on to give, in ourown words, our opinion that if such a thing werepossible as an invasion of the Southern country byan army of Northern fanatics, we should find-if itwere also possible that our own courage and resourceswere not competent to the emergency-an invinciblechampion in that dread destroyer, the yellow fever.That is all very well, and we re-assert it. But wedid not say nor intimate that we believed in " theawful imminence" of such invasion, nor did we samyanything to justify the inference that we had lostfaith in the ability of the Southern people to protectthemselvesin an emergency of that description. Wewere simply replying to an absurd menace in th eLouisville Journal. We do not believe Abolition'fanatics will invade the Southern country, except forthe accomplishment of thievish enterprises; but ifthey should do so in well appointed and organizedarmies, for the purpose of conquest, the people ofMississippi and Louisiana would not wait for the pesntilence to beat their " legions " home again.

In the Cincinnati Times we find another charmingspecimen of the correctness and good faith of theCincinnati scribblers when enlightening their readersupon matters in any way pertaining to the South.Here it ist:

New Orleans is said to be almost overrun by aconh-drela. The boldest robberies are committed everynight, and the papers advise people who travel late atnight orearly in the morning to keep sharp eyes on allpersons they meet. Some of the rascals have delicatetastes ; one of them, a few days ago, carried off fourthousand cigars. Nothing appears to alarm the mis-creants but the occasional talk of a Vigilance Com-mittee. The terrific certainty and expedition wpthwhich crime is discovered and punished by thesepopular courts chill the heart of the highwayman andpalsy the band of the aasosin.

The idea conveyed in this smart paragraph thatour police is inefficient and our administration ofjuoctice unusually bad is altogether a false one, and iheallusion to "the occasional talk of a Vigilance Com-mittee" is in all conscience rich enough under thecircumstances. As to the administration of justice,it may be had enough in New Orleans, but it is in-finitely worse in Cincinnati, where within the pastyear two or three most shocking murders were per-mitted, in face of the clearest proofs, to go withoutadequate punishment, and where, in one case, if weremember correctly, the Judge felt it his duty to re-buke the jury for a verdict stupidly in deflance of thelaw and the facts.

Arrlval of tlhe Steamship Cahawb.

The United States mail steamship Cahawba, J. D.Bulloch, commander, arrived yesterday from NewYork via Havana, leaving the latter port on the 10th.

The Cahawba did not enter the harbor, but dis-charged her passengers and exchanged her mails out-side the Moro.

The city is very healthy, and a great deal of sur-prise was manifested at the existing quarantine regu-lations of this port.

There were lying in the harbor the following lsips:H. B. M. ship-of.the-line," Co.ar," ninety.one guns,Capt. Chas. Frederick; Frigate "Diadem,"thirty-wo guns, Capt. soorc.tse, C. B., and sloop " Itacer,"sixteen guns, Hon. T. A. Pakenham, under orders toreport at Portsmouth with all possible dispatch.

The Sugar market was dull the past week. Stockat Havana and Matanzas 335,000 boxes. Shippedlast week 32,000 boxes. Exchange has derlined;London 13 to 131 prem.; New York, 1 to 1l do.;New Orleans, short sight, 2k to 3 do. Freights haveimproved, and the demands for American vessels willcontinue, although a large fleet has arrived.

There is not the slightest political news, Somelittle excitement still remains regarding the filibus-ters, but no sympathy seems to be felt for them ineither public or private circles.

Outside the Moro the Cahawba saw a propellerbound in; supposed her to be the "Indianolp," fromCharleston. May 19, aInt. 25-30, Ion. 85-30, exchangedsignals with a ship steering N. W.. showing whiteburgee with red letters; had the letters C I. in thefore topsail. May 20, about fifteen miles from Pass-a-l'Outre, exchanged signals with steamship EmpireCity, for New York via Havana.

THE NEW OPERA HOUSE.The building of the opera bos at the corner of

Bo•rbon and Toulouse streets is going ahead briskly.Th foundations have been laid, and the front wallshave amost reached a hightof one story. The greata.n of the theater attracts the attention of everybody; and as all our operagoing population feelmOr or less interest in it, we think some account ofth shape, plas, and style of the building, will beacceptable.

It will be a handsome struoctre of the Italian order9f architecture, with a front of one hundred andsilty.six feet on Bourbon street, one hundred andeighty-seven on Toulouse street, and ahight of abouteighty feet Ia its highest part. Whilst the externalwalls will be some distance back of the usual line,thua widening the banquettes of the two streetsthe Bourbon street front will project over and restupon an arcade, thepillars of which will be at thecurb stone. A gallery six feet wide and sixty feetlong will project from this arcade over the street, aso shelter to ladies entering and leaving carriages inlbad weather. The upper side of the building will bedivided from the adjoining buildings by a flagged pas-page seventeen feet wide. The edifice will rise like aColoeens over every thing in that vicinty.

In the basement there will be seven elegant stores;two on Toulouse street, two at each of the front corn.era, and one on the lde passage. It is supposed thatIMr. Bellanger, the confectioner, will lease the wholeof them, for his own use and for oublasing to others-

Two broad and hilgt lglepfW pe eo tltute thefront entrance to the theater, or rather to the adstandes d does l circler. eptqueda asdb . B.etween these flightsof steps is the pit entrance, goingin from the level of the street. Going up the mainentrance, you enter a very broad lobby, extending allround the dress circle. Leaving the lobby, you entera corridor almost as broad,and are in the auditorium,by far the largest and finest proportioned ever de-signed in this city.

It is elliptical in shape, and fully as large as thatof the Tacon at Havana. The hight from pit toceiling is fiftysix feet, the width ninety feet. Thestage projects in a curve, and the parquette seats areranged in a curve to correspond; there being abroad enclosure for the orchestra between, along thewhole front of the stage. There are five latticedboxes on each side of the parquette, and open boxes,or bagnoires, all round the pit. There are four tier-"The first, or dress circle, is very capacious, contain-ing two rows of stalls, of four seats each; fifty twostalls in all, with broad passages between the rows,and twenty latticed boxes. The second tier, or dresscircle, contains a front row of sixty chairs, with arange of eight open stalls and twenty latticed boxes.All the latticed boxes in the two dress circles haveparlors behind; each box its parlor. The third tieris plainly furnished with seats without boxes or divi-sions. It is for the cheap admission of white people,and is equal to the pit. The fourth and highest tieris similarly arranged, and is intended for coloredpeople. Some idea of the roominess of this audito-riues and its arrangements may be derived from thefact that with all its seats, stalls and boxes, it willseat only one thousand six hundred people. Greatnumbers, however, can stand in the corridors and en-trances, and it is expected that when thoroughlycrowded the auditorium will hold about two thouseand or two thousand five hundred.

The stage is 85 feet wide and 60 feet deep. Theproscenium is large and very handsome. Fourfluted Corinthian columns, 32 feet high, on squarepedestals 10 feet Ligh, will support the arch, two oneach side. Between the columns, on each side, willbe three tiers of elegant proscenium boxes, two ineach tier; making 12 stage boxes in all, each withits parlor in the rear. Of the style of the furnishings,paintings, etc., of the auditorium, we cannot nowspeak, though we are assured that everything willbe on the first scale of taste, beauty, and conveni-ence.

On each side of the stage are ranges of largeproperty rooms, whilst at the rear is a very large un-obstructed space containing racks for sceneries not inuse. The dressing-rooms are rather remote from thestage, being on the two sides of the building, in thesecond story, their windows overlooking Toulousestreet and the upper side passage. Convenientenough to the stage, however, is the green-room, aswell as a large retiring-room for the orchestra.

The ventilations and escapes of the building areabundant and well arranged. On each side of theauditorium, but still enclosed within the building, aretwo open yards, each as long as the auditorium,which has numerous windows opening on them. Onthe far sides of these yards are the rears of the storesfronting on the street and the passage; and above,the back windows of the dressing-rooms. The actors'entrance is on Toulouse street. Besides the broadfront entrances to the parquette and first circle, andthe winding stairways to the second circle, all threeare connected on each side, near the proscenium,with other broad stairways, and a hall leading out ateach side, one on Toulouse street and the other onthe passage. The proscenium boxes also join theconnections here. This is an admirable arrangement.In case of an accident or a panic the house could bheemptied in a very short time, withou t harm to any-

We now come to what will render this theater im-measurably more comfortable and luxurious than anywe have yet had in this city ; a series of arrange-ments more like those of a hotel than an opera-house.The whole second-story front of the building is setapart to relaxation, conversation and the other meansemployed to relieve the time between the acts. Overthe main entrance, and fronting the street, is a saloon,or " crush-room," finished in the most beautiful style,00 feet long, 20 feet wide, and 28 feet high. Con.necting with this saloon at its lower end, at the Ton-louse street corner, are the club-rooms for the stock.holders of the theater ; a general meeting room, aparlor, and all kinds of couveniences, including a rangeof water-closets. There is a private entrance by whichthe stockholders gain these rooms from Toulouse. Atthe upper end of the grand saloon, and correspond-ing in number and situation with those of the clubquarter, is a series of rooms for the retirement ofladies visiting the theatre ; a large liarlor, connectingwith a cloak-room, and a boudoir or toilet-room, withall the other conveniences that ladies can require.The central saloon opens out on the gallery which wehave already mentioned as projecting over the street.

Over the above central saloon, and fully as capsncious, is a small theater, or place prepared exclusivelyfor rehearsals.

To describe all the minor arrangements of the thea-ter, such as the different offices, business rooms, etc.,would take up more room than we can at presentspare.

The cost of the building and ground will be about$200,000 ; the furnishings will come to $50,000 more.It will be a truly magnificent theater, and one whichwill add much to the f.me of its already famous arch-itects and builders, Gallier & Esterbrook.

IonRronL MUh DEn.--The Memphis Enquirer ofthe 20th says :

We announced the other day the terrible suspicionentertained against a certain party lodged in the jailat Prentiss; it is fully verified. The murderer,named Samuel Moore, and his victim, David Dunbar,brother of Hugh C. Dl)nbar, Ibilliard salgon keeper,on Adams street, were engaged upon a trading boatdown the river, near Napoleon. Some days agoDunbar disappeared very suddenly, and suspicion atonce beccomiug rife, attached itself to his comrade,for some cause not yet explained. Moore was seizedat Prentiss, and incarcerated in the jail at that place,there to remain uutil the proper iavestigationsshouldbe made. The J. G. Cline, on her up-trip, saw a bar-rel floating in the water.which the captain concludedto save. They picked it up at Gaines' Lading, andbrought it to Prentiss. Upon opening the barrel ahorrible spectacle revealed itself. A human bodywith its head mashed and cut in a most ghastly man-aer, as if by repeated blows of an nx or hastibt.Several persons present identilied the body as thatst young Douibr.

pal 1_tagen.YmersmAoi was a hot day, with just enaugh eked

and breee to prevent it from being a regular roster.Mercry p to the ninaels.

A Prnn broke out at about halfpast four o'clockyesterday morning, In the Cnrtis House, kept by Ml.Chirles Curtis, at the corner of Front Levee andCreamn streets, The coffeehouse, a threestorybrick, and one of the most tylish and popular of althe.cofeeboluee along the steamboat landing, wastotally destroyed, with all its content.

The adjoiniong building, occupied in the basementby Mlciegea, the oyster and core seller, and in theupper stories by the copper, tin, and sheet Iron workutablishment of F. A. Kraft, was partly destroyed;the,apper story being gone, and the contents of thelower stories damaged. The ElDorado Exebange,outhe opposite corner, was badly scorched. The upperstory, occopied as the ball of the Screwnme's Anuociation,was so badly damaged as to compel the Anu.clation yesterdayto look out for otherquarters. Thestove andtinware houseof Simonda & Hite, on Cram.man street, adjoining the El Dorado, was also badlyscorched in front-a nmarrow escape for Mera. S. &H., who had previously sffered no mnch by ire inthat neighborhood. The grocery of Roqaeat & Co.,on Cromman street, immediately next to the CurtisHouse, owed its prenervaton to a good fire-wall.

The whole loss by the fire was about $10,000. Mr.Curtis estimates his los at $5000-no lmasmroe.The building was lam ed.

Mr. Cart sand his fbmily had a aow meepefrom bourntg to death. Hime~sl,wrfe and two tlegirls, one his daughter and the other his niece, weresleeping seaonty when the fire broke out. So frleand rapid was the spread of the flemes, that whenMr. Curtis awoke the whole of the lower story wasina blae. iushing down stairs in his night clothesthrough the smoke, he found It wa too late to smreanything baut the live of his tamily. Roehing upagain, he felt his way to the grla' room, got one ofthe girls and carried her down. Going back, thesmoke and heat becoming worse each moment, herescued the other girl and boreber down. A thirdtime he went back for his wife. The beat and smokein the pasmages were now so Intense that he couldneither breathe nor see; yet he groped ahesd, feeingthe walls and doors, found his wife, and carried herdown stairs. Jst as they got to the stairs, theflames shot across the paamge below. It was a criti-cal moment, the only chance for life being,to makea rush through the flames.

Mr. Curtis at once decided to do so. He felt him-sel succumbing to the heat and the want of broath;he collected his energies for final effort, made a rushthrough the flame, reached the banquette staggering,and fell into the street with his wife in his arms. Itwas found that both were seriously burnt; Mr. Cur-tie' face and right hand being crisped, and Mr. Cur-tis being burnt about the head, and injured most ofthe two. They were taken to the Rio Grande coffeehouse, close by, the proprietor of which gave up hisfamily room to them. Yesterday both were doingtolerably well, under medical attendance, both beingbandaged up, and both complaining of internal painfrom the inhalation of hot air and smoke. It wascertainly a very narrow escape from a most awfuldeath, for in a minute or two after Curtis got outwith his wife, the building was one fierce roar orflame. All that Mr. Curtis saved of his earthly goodsconsisted of his night clothes that he had on. HBiswife and the girls came off no better; not a solitaryarticle was saved, other than the gowns they wore.

The fire started in the front part of the cofeebonuse,about where the cigar stand was. Its origin ie as yeta mystery, though Curtis and others are of opinionthat it was started by some means by an incendiary.

A Paeuneas' Srnaer, of a rather serious nature,occurred on Saturday evening. The particulars, asfar as we could ascertain, werethese :

The types of one of the most ancient and respect-able newspaper offices in the city, having heard forsome time past that Dan Hickok bad run out of goodcordial and fresh fish, and that, though a frst ratefellow, he did'ut know how to keep a hotel, held achapel on the subject. The only legitimate way ofsettling the question, was to appoint a committee togo down to the lake and investigate. Being unable,after doe debate, to decide as to which of themshould constitute said committee, they resolved them-selves into a special joint committee of the whole,and went down in a long-drawn-out body, two in eachbuggy.

They had an interview with Dan Hickok. Hesatisfied them that the reports about him and hishotel were slanderous. They made friends with him,and apologized by going largely into his good things.They parted good friends; Dan having furnished aclean proof of his capacity as a hotelhkeeper, with-out subjecting the Sons of Faust to the trouble of areviser.

All would have ended well, but for one unluckycircumstance. A celebrated and well-known loafer,who hangs about all the coffeehouses in town, butdelights particularly in the lake hotels, pressed him-self into the society of the printers, and insistedupon accompanying them, as he has done on innu-merable occasions, with all classes and qualities oflake visitors and coffeehouse patrons. Though gen-erally detested, he has a way of getting around gen-tlemen in their cups which few can resist.

This fellow, whose name is Drunke N. Hickups,came into town with our typographical friends, andwas the jolliest and most reckless of the party.Though he has come in by the Shell Road a thousandtimes, he is still a dreadfully bad driver, and has sub-jected his unsuspecting friends to all sorts ofcollis-ions, upsets, spills, scatters, smashes, and sore bonesgenerally. On this occasion he was more than usu-ally jolly, and, according to his usual insanity, fan-cied there was nothing on the road save the flyingbuggy in which with his two chosen friends he wasseated. The result was, that whilst scudding aldogthe Bienville road, near Claioorne street, he failed Usee an omnibus which was coming the opposite way,from town. Omnibusses are not in the habit of get-ting away from buggies; the latter generally have totake the consequences, when they fail to get out ofthe way. On this occasion, the omnibus and thebuggy saluted each other. The kiss was fierce. Theomnibus went on, smacking its lips; the buggyfainted; and Mr. Hickups and his two victims werethe sufferers.

Hickups did'nt care a cent about it; but the twoprinters did. At the very moment of the collision,the printers voted it an outrage and struck. Theydid not strike against the omnibus, which hurried onto avoid a row, but they struck against the road,which had tolerated an omnibus so rascally. Theysuffered, however. They were knocked into pi, anddistributed all over the road. The other printers,who had been striving to make rven columns withthem in the chase, came along, set them up again,and brought them to town, two blank pages in anoctavo form, of a work which might have been en-titled,

" A Trip to the Chief Lagoon of Louisiana;

with Geological and Hickokological Explorations,and a Treatise on the Shells of the CarbankeliferousPeriod." The buggy was brought in, a bundle ofbadly.damaged furniture; and yesterday, (Hickupshaving sneaked off, as usual, after his victims hadbeen planed downs in their beds by their friends,) thetwo victims, with lithographic impressions of theShell Road all over their faces, knuckles, and bodies,in red ink, were raking up quoins with which to lockup the mouth of theowner of thesmashed-up buggy.There was a heavy demand for " subs," yesterday, inone of our most ancient and respectable newspaperoffices.

RucounnE SEInuRS, having returned considerablyrejluvenated, from a trip to his " Old KentuckyHome,' resumed his magisterial seat on Saturday;for which his able and worthy Assistant, Mr. Mun-roe, was properly glad, and the regular patrons ofthe court rather sorry.

THE DINNER TO. J~At$ H0O4

About two hundred add fifty citizens joined Iagiving to Mr. James Robb, on Saturday evening, aparting testimonial of their regard for mbr; hebehngabout to take his departure, permanently, fbr (hltFa -ala. It was a dinner of the most sumpteoup andmagnificent description, given at the St. ChlirieHotel.

The guests, or rather those who had joined to givethe dinner to the one distingaished guest, comprisedrepresentatives of the wealth and of the dlfieentprofessions and callings of the city.

Judge Spofford presided. The dinnerwas preededby grace from the Right Rev. Bishop Polk. JudgeSpofford made an introductory address, eulogistic ofthe gentleman to whom the dinner was given, sadconcluded by Introducing that gentleman formally tothe company.

Mr. Robb made a speech of some length, iull oftruth and feeling, eloquently expressed. He waslistened to with the profoundest attention, and atthe close honored with the heartiest applause.

After that, toasting and speeching was the order,all around the splendidly laden board. The mostprominent of the speakers were General Miles, theBritish Consul, Mr. More, and Prof. De Bow. Eachin his turn said something pertinent to the occasion,as well as lively and refreshing.

The dinner lasted to a late hour. It was an emi-nently brilliant affair; a high compliment, bestowedupon a gentleman in every respect worthy of it.

Arrival of the Steamsshlp Ceatmeeolees.

The Louisiana Tehuantepe Companys- mallsteamship Coatzscoalcos, Capt. Wilson, oermed theSouth-west Pass Bar at 5 o'clock on Friday after-noon, after a passage of seventy-five hours from Mint-titlan.

Thissteamer brings her usual complement of pas-sengers and mails from California, to the 5th instant,inclusive.

The Costzacoalco towed down and suaceegdiasuccessfully landing the Louisiana Tehuantepee *eon-pany's new light.draught steamship Mluatitgs, afeat heretofore deemed impracticable.
