dctment is founded, il is said, on some gross and
malicious libel upon private individual, of what
nature we do not exactly understand. The next
thing will be the issue of Bench warrant for his
arrest. Be that il may, We presume that the
Chevalier will now have his hands full.


Ii will be observed that this is the only indict-
ment of the kind, Of any consequence, which has
been presented since those Of Washington Dixon
and Nike Walsh were disposed OF. A conviction
therefore would open to the Chevalier the exciting
prospect OF 4 sojourn for some months on one
of the most beautiful islands in the neigh
bohood of New York, commonly called Black
wells Island The penitentiary buildings there are
very beautiful Of elegant and classic proportions,
and built of species Of limestone, closely ap-
preaching TO marble and as in Europe all the
distinguished personages occupy marble palaces,
ought noted characters here. The amusements
and occupations of the Island were very well de
scribed by the genius of Washington Dixon, and
the immortal pen of Mike Walsh, but we forgei
the chief details, and must look up the authorities
hereafter for the benefit of all specially interested


We are very sorry that the poor Chevalier has
got into suoh an awkward dilemma. Ii was surely
quite enough tor his advisers and coadjutors
make him lose SIG 900, without involving him in
an indictment, which opens up such melancholy
prospect for him. He had much better have taken
our advice his assuming the publication of such
journal; and instead of attempting to reform the
newspaper press OF the United States, or manufac-
turing an organ Of public opinion, that would be
respected in Europe, have stuck to his original avo
cation in the theatrical line, that OF furnishing ee

MOVEMENTS OF THE ABoLIrIoNIsrs. per

have commenced their movements for the next
year by calling general convention of all their
friends in New York, New England, and all the
central and western States. which is to be held al
Albany on the 4th and 5th Of next month. All the
great leaders OF the abolition party are expected to
be there, and as they have polled fifty thousand
votes IN the recent election and contributed to the
defeat of Mr. Clay, and may hold the balance Of
power tor years to come In several OF the States
1t will be very interesting assemblage.


As to their views, and principles, and measures

posed They have no business whatever with sla-

Under the Constitution, we do not think il
is morally just or fair in any body Of men
In the Northern States to act this subject. Our
firm belief is, that slavery, domestic instu-
ton Of The South, will gradually be extinguished
IN the process Of time, as the white race presses
upon the black. The annexation of Texas will
singly have great influence in helping to remove
the institution Of slavery from portion Of the
Southern States; and we believe that in a few
years Maryland, Virginia and Kentucky will be
amongst the first who will act on this subject, OF
their own free will and accord.


But in reference to the other political parties, it
will be well for them all to beware Of any connec

THEATRIoALs-MR. ANDERsoN's BENEFIT.--This
evening Mr. Anderson takes his benefit at the
Park Theatre, and closes an engagement that has
been successful for all parties nterested-for him.
self, the manager, and the pay-going public, who
strongly muster rom night to night to see Mr. An
derson perform-is, among the many valid proofs
of his popularity, that could be named-a leading
one. There ia no necessity whatever to invite an
audience; we are certain that the announcement Of
this popular young actors benefit will fill the house.
The pieces are happily chosen-Claude Menotte,
in the "Lady Of Lyons" being one of his best
characters. Those who have seen him in this part
must feel an irresistible desire to repeat the gratif-
cation; those who have not should not lose
the chance. II they can relish the har-
mony between action and sentiment; if
they have mental perception of that chastened
fervor Of feeling with which real artist can dispe
the indifference OF spectator more forcibly than
by the whirlwind Of passion; if they admire pol
shed art as the mirror, and not the prompter OF
nature-then Mr.. Anderson's portraiture of the
deep feelings of the human heart will be appreca-
ted by them. In addition to the "Lady Of Lyons"
the old but excellent comedy of "The Elder Bro
ther" will be played; and certainly if this is not an
ample provision for one nights entertainment, we
do not know what is.


II is to be hoped that Mr. Anderson will not take
his leave Of the Park now, when healthful rcac
tion has taken place in the theatrical affairs of the
establishment, which must be mainly attributed TO
his efforts. What the future of this young drama
tist may be, if not entirely palpabe, is pretty
probable; for there is little ground for hesitating to
predict tor him brilliant career, provided he
wears his present honors discreetly; provided his
circumspect'on, his industry, his self-dlscipline
his association, be equal to his genius. There is
