Hear and His Successor, j The resignation of Hoar Feeras to have been his own business, having no refer- . ence to any one else. It took everybody

by Miimise. Neither of the Senators of 'Lis own State had the least preinttniatioo jifit. Mr. Hoar's successor )B Amos T. Ackeriuan, originally of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, but a Georgian from his youth. He resides about seventy miles up the river from Augusta. lie is said to have been a Union man throughout the conflict, though, for personal safety, he took a nominal position on the staff of General Toombs. The disability arising from this precaution has been removed, land he has held the piu-ition of Attorney General for the State of Georgia, from which he in now elevated to that cf the United States. He has been in high favor with Mr. Hoar. He is said not to have been an applicant for any position either by himself or his friends. As the account recti. s to show him to be well qualified, we shall esteem him the more highly fi he has not been an office seeker. The True Way to Reduce Taxes. The House of Representatives having done so well in the way of putting down the internal revenue taxation, it now remains for the Senate to second them, by passing all the reductions embodied in the House Bill. These, with the modification of the income tax to three per ceut. on all incomes over $2,J0Q, (as finally agreed to by the House), will reduce the people's annual burden bv about filtvfive millions j - , ,. District Agricultural F3tr. A district agricultural fair, under the auspices of the ten counties of the old Fifth and present Fourth Congressional Districts, has just been organized at Cam bridge City. The first fair will be held there this Fall. Sevcu thousand dollars in cash was immediately subscribed and sixty seres of land purchased. A mile track is now being laid off, Tbe enterprise is on a graud scale, and from its location promises to be the most successful of any similar one in the West. $15,000 in Premiums. The Indianapolis Agricultural, Mechanical and Horticultural Association will o at bait ljre. The New Citizenship Treaty. By the new naturalization treaty just concluded between Great Britain and the United States, the old Eoglh doctrine, that no British born subject could ever throw off his allegiance to the Crown the doctrine that was the real eause of the war of 1812 has been relinquished, and the recognition of naturalized citizens is mutually declared. All boro subjects of Great Britain who have been uaturalized as citizens of the United States are released from allegiance to tbe British crown, and all citizens of the United States who have I ia like manner become naturalized subTho Revenue Bill. The Senate has got hold of the House Tax and Tariff bill. Tbe committee pro- ! poses many changes, though the decisions t0f the House as to incomes 3 per cent , j with 2,000 exemption, as to tea 15 cents J ptr pound, coffee 3 cents, and pig iron j per ton, are concurred in. There is no material disagreement as to sugars. As to ; internal revenue, Sherman's bill is put for j ward as a substitute for Scheiick's. The j Senate will effect a reduction ofabout 7V 1000,000 of taxation, 521,000.000 on the (tariff, and 631,000,000 of internal taxa tic n. Captain Gooding, of Evansvitlo, has been nominated lor Congress by the Republicans of the First Indiana District. The Mechanics' Bank of Lovisville was robbed, last Friday evening, of sixty thousand dollars in money. The Republicans ot the Second Indiana i Ditrict have nominated the Hon. Geo. W. , tr, of Jackson County, for.Congress. In the Third Indiana District Republl . can Convctitiou, at Madison, Henry R. ; Pritchard, of Bartholomew County, was j otujnated for Congress. In the Tenth Indiana District the ReI publican Convention renominated Major Williams, but 1500 delegates withdrew and ! nominated General M.

Attorney General Hoar's Resignation.

The following correspondence passed between Judge Hoar and the President: Attorney General's Office, Washington, D. C, June 15. Sir 1 resign the office of Attorney General of the United States, the resignation to take effect upon the appointment and qualification of my successor. Very respectfully, E. R. Hoar. To tbe President. Executive Mansion, Washington, D. C, June 15. Mr Dear Judge In accepting your resignation as Attorney General, upon the appointment and qualification of your successor, 1 take this occasion to express to you my high appreciation of the able, patriotic and devoted manner in which you have peiformed tbe functions of that office. In no degree do 1 tail to appreciate the pleasant personal relations which have existed from the beginning of our association, officially, in public place. Hoping that you will carry with you nothing but pleasant recollections of your connection with the present Administration, and with the assurance of my per sonal esteem and friendship, I remain with great respect. Your friend and obedient servant, U.S.Grant. To E. R. Hoar, Attorney General. Mr. Inman, owner of tbe City of Boston, has written a letter saying he never expects to hear of that vessel. He denies the report that she was overladen, and thinks she was struck by ah iceberg. The Republicans of tbe Sixth (Ind.) District, have nominated Moses F. Dunn, of Lawrence County, for Congress. The Democratic Convention meets on the 30th and will renominate Yooruces, there being no opposition. The nomination of Ackerman for Attorney General was referred to the Judiciary Committee. Careful inquiry shows no foundation for the rumors of other Cabinet changes. The report that Hoar resigned at the request of the President is untrue. Governor Baker has written a letter to John D. Caton, Chairman of the Natiooai Executive Committee of the Capitol Bemovers, declining to appoint delegates from this State to tbe convention to be held in Cinciunati on the 2Gih of October next. The Terre Haute Gazette says of Moses F. Dunn, the Republican candidate lor

Congress from that district: '-Mr. Dunn is Harmonia, EvansvUle, Eeider Kranz, tbe eon of the distinguished George G. j Greenville; Maunerchor, Hamilton; LeidDuhd, and is said to be 'a chip of tbe old er Kranz, Hamilton; Manuercbor , Uicki i i i . i i inan ; Germauia, In iianopolk-; Harmonia, block.' He is a hublv educated and I T , , i i r tr -n r " ludiau-ipolis; Mannerchor, J etierson vule,

thorougly posted young man, ana will make Mr. Yoorbees know before be is much older that be now has a foeman worthy of his steel." The bill creating a Department of Justice has passed both Houses of Congress. The Attorney General is to be the head, with a Solicitor General and two assistants. The law officers of the other departments are .ransfcrred to this one, and all the law business of the Government is to be transacted by it. The euiplov uieut of a special counsel by the Government is prohibited. The Government authorities have decided to comply with the request made by Red Cloud recently for horses to carry his party home from the terminus of the railroad, and so notified him by telegraph. His reply, received from New York, informs the Commissioner of Indian Affairs that the intelligence has made his heart glad and grateful. At a meeting of the colored citizens of Omaha, Nebraska, last week, a series of resolutions were adopted denouncing the Radical party and formally withdrawing from the organization. The cause of this 8l,,l0il wa8 f0Und in the recent municipal election, when a colored man was nominated lor Alderman and defeated by Radical votes. The Democrats are happy. Advices from Washington, D. C, indicate that Indiana will have two Congressmen to elect from the State at large under the uew Apportionment bill. It is thought one of them maybe given to the central portion cf the State, in which case Hon. II. C. Newcomb, foi mer editor of the Jour nal, is mentioned. The other will doubt. ! less be conceded to tha Southern psrt of the State, ll. W. Thompson, of Terre Haute, has been named for one or the other. Another new daily paper is talked of, to Le started by the same parties which backed up the recent Times. The receipts of the Saengerfest from the concerts was, in round numbers, $21,000. Tbe picnic I u tight in pel ably 12,000. The amount of collected subscriptions before the festival was 15,01'0. This makes a tot.l of SIS U00. The cost of the hall, including plumbing, decoration, gas fit ting, Sic, was, in round numbers, $30,000. ' .r.. j tneie was expended :or tus orchestra 000; for entertaining the guests, 56,000, making a total of 41,000. IfthU were all, it would be very well. Incidental exj penses will swell the amount to a much larger sum. The exact figures it s impossible to get at just now. The friendly relations of Judge Hoar and the President have never been interrupted. When recently Mr. Hoar tendered his resignation for the first time, in writing, the President accepted it, with the intimation that, as the South had no Judge on the Supreme Bench, it seemed fair that that seetiou should have a representative in the Cabinet, and, therefore, inquiries were made as to a suitable successor. The asj certained qualifications if Akerraan be- ; ing satisfactory, be was accordingly nomicatcd to the Senate.

The National Saeogerfest Cincinnati, June 15. The great meeting of the North Ameri

can Saengerbuod has been inaugurated, and in a successful manner. Notwithstanding the cloudy weather in the early part of the day, the afternoon was without rain and everything most auspicious. Tbe procession was . a large affair and quite attracive. It consumed an hour in passing, embracing the Police force, Zouave Battalion, all the societies from abroad, the elev. en home singing societies, German Pioneers, Workingmeus' Union, the Turners of this city and Covinston, taoners, carpenters and cigar-makers' Union, Knights Pythias, German Sharp Shooters, MtCook Encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic. Gardeners society, the entire Fire Department, and a large number of invited guests, including Governor Hayes, the Judges of the Courts , Board of Aldermen and members of the City Council. Fifteen bands of music were in the procegsiou. Tbe distinguished feature in the procession was the splendid display of banners, which has scarcely ever been equaled in Cincinnati. They marched rapidly, and the line was more than three miles long. A large number of stores and manufactories were closed for the lime being. During the passage of the procession the streets were densly crowded with people. Windows, doors, and every available inch of room was occupied. The uuinber of spectators is estimated at one hundred and sixty thousand. The houses in most all parts of tbe city were more or less decorated, but on the line of march the id oft extensive display had been made. An immense aro had been thrown over Fourth street, near Pike's Opera House, j over Vine stieet, opposite Saenger Hall, was another arc heautifusly trimmed with j evergreens aud flags. Young girls dressed in white placed ou each banner a wreath of flowers, and pre-ented boquets to the members of the different societies as they passed. Everywhere in the German part of the city the decorations were such as we have never before seeu here, and other parts of the eity were scarcely behind in that respect. The following societies are now here: Oiiou Des Westerns, of St. Louis; Concordia, of Brookville; Harmonia, of Chicago ; Frosbinn, of Columbus ; Eiederkranz, of Columbus, Mannerchor, of Chicago; Sehwegizer Mannerchor, of Chillicothe, Eintracht, of Cleveland; Gesangvereic, of Chicago, Gcrmania Mannerchor, of Chicago; liaragnri Liedertafel, of Chicago, Orpheus, cf Cleveland; Mannerchor, cf Cleveland; Liederkranz, of Chicago; Teutonia Manneuchor, of Delphos ; Concordia, of Delphos ; Schiller Ycrren, Dayton ; Concordia, Danville , Eieber Kranz, Dayton; llarmonia, Detroit : Ari bciser Uuterstutziit'ns Yerrin. Detroit : S.inierbund , L aoorte; i Mannerchor , Louisvillo ; Frolisinn, Louisville : Letder Kranz, Lexington , Leider Kranz, Louisville; Orpheus, Aladison ; Coucordia, New Albany ; Mannerchor, Pique ; Turngesaugberein, Richmond, Ind.; Leider Kranz St. Louis Orpheus, Seymour; Mannerchor St. Louis; Socialer Sangerchoir, Sidney; Leider Kranz SanJusky; Mannerchor , Terre llante; Mauneichor Tiffin; Bruder bund, Troy; Harmonia, Toledo; Petersburg; Slanuerchor, Wheeling 13eethoven Gesang Yerein ; Wooster Mannerchor. This tmbtaces over eleven bundled singers from abtoad. The eleven Cincinnati Societies will number ubout seven hundtcd. In aiditioit to the?e societies, delegates are present fioui the Pitiburg and Memphi's Mannerchors, the Arion, Lovely, and Sangcibund oeieties of New York.and the societies at ILHiaiore, PeDiia, and Milwaukee. Many toeieties have brought their own bands, embracing some of the most distinguished in the West. The reception concert ooourred this evening, at 8 o'clock, in the Sangetfest build ittg. Thousands had gathered about the building before tha hour arrived. The hall lights beautifully. It is 250 feet long by 110 wide, oonsisting of one immense arch, forming the body of the building, flanked hy smaller arches, in which galleries are located.' The whole is profusely trimmed with American and German fligs ani festoons of evergreens. The pillars are adorned with portraits of the great masters. Behind the singers is a splendid icpieseutatiou of Polyhymnia This lights up beautifully, aud in tbe point from which the decorotions proceed. The singer's stand consists of seats, one rising above the other, with a fountain playing in fiont. The house was not filled to-night' but tbe audience was equal tu the expectation for the first night, which was to be consumed by the Cincinnati singers, and in addresses of welcome aod response. The performance was opened by a jubilee overture by the Cincinnati orchestra, which met with a general acceptance. This was followed by the Cincinnati Singer Greeting, composed by Phillip Waller, the Directtor, dedicated to the Seuventh North American Saengerfest. This, was received with a great deul of enthusiasm. The address of welcome was made byGovernor Hayes. He said, "all who were acquainted with the people of tbe United Stales knew that wise energetic efl'ort to promote useful arts, would always com mand sympathy, but their presence in such numbers, and with such enthusiasm, encouraged the hope that the fine arts, even iq this money-making age, may be supcessfully cultivated. Music, for its great number of votaries, gathers no golden harvest, but you are teaching u that it brings its own exceeding great reward. As we listen here to you, quoting froiuanother man, we are persuaded that '"beauty truth and goodness are not obsolete ; that they spring eternal in the human breast ; that the everlasting spirit whose triple face they are moulds from them forever for this'mortal child images to remind it of the infinitely more fair. You come to lift us, for a brief season, by your miracles of musia, above the sordid aud the selfish aod we warmly greet you, and bid you, as I do now, welcome, thrico welcome to Ohio." Aq address of welcome was then made by A. T. Goshorn, President of the board of Councilmen. The Bund Banner was delivered to the President, Mr. Steinhsm. llerr derDu Bist Der Gott,and Alleia Gctt, der Hoch Seihr, from Paulu, was

well sung by a select chorus of 450 singers, the latter receiving an encore. Rev. Dr. Lilienthal, Chairman of tho festival delivered a lengthy welcome address, which was greeted with great applause. Hallelujah, from the Messes, was admirably sung. The response to the address of welcome was then delivered by William Mueller of 'Iudianaplis, alter which Der Tag Dej IJcrrn was splendidly sung, which closed fhe evening's entertainment. To-morrow night the first graud concert takes place. Cincinnati, June 10. Tbe Grand Concert was inaugurated tonight with great success. The audience was immense , all the seats were filled and every inch of stundiug room was occupied. The audience is certainly fully fifteen thousand. The managers said they now see they built tbe house too small. Iu the vicinity of the stage the music was greatly enjoyed, but from the center to the entrance there was so many persons uncomfortably situated, that there has been since early in the evening, noise enough to prevent hearing satisfactoiily. The grand orchestra cotiMsts of sixty violins, twenty-two violos, twenty violincellos, sixteen double bass and Fteuch horns, eight trumpets, two tubas, one kettle drum, one bass drum, one timpani, four bassons, two oboes, four trombones, six flutes, and eight clariouets, with a chorus of fifteen hundred. The concert commenced with Columbus by the grand orchestra, which was well received, but scarcely produced tbe enthusiasm that was expected. "Sturmesmyth," executed by all the singers of the bund and a full orchestra, was anmirably executed, and received

enthusiastic applause. When Mrs. Edmund Dexter came upon the stage she was greeted with demonstrations of en;husiasm. She sang an aria from Figaro's Hocbxcrt in a manner to secuic universal applause. Next came Weuaei Kopta, from Prague who is now delighting the audience on a violin, in the concert for violins. in E Flat by Mendelssohn. The performance of Kopta to night was superb. Diehmantha, dedicated to the North American Saeneerbund, by Professor Fischer, Royal Prussian Musical Director, at Hanover, sung by all the singers of the Bund, was finely rendered, and was received with much enthusiasm. The Coneertjfor piano, executed by Chas. Walter, was very creditable. The March Night, and Salamis, by all the siugcrs, were both, excellent. Mrs Dexter, iu the shadow dance, won strangers and friends alike.. Her perfect articulation could be distinguished aud heard in the most remote pait of the tiouse. In reply loan eucoro she sang in German 'Thou art so Near aud yet so Far.' There will be another grand concert tomorrow night. Cincinnati, June 17. The crowd of strangers appears to be as great as ever. A very large audience at tended the grand rehearsal this morning. ! Owintr to the immense crowds that seek the coucerts many persons are attending the rehearsals instead of encountering the necessary discomfort at night. Tbe afternoon has been spent by tbe members in couviviatity aud visits to the suburbs. A Urge procession, preceded by bands of music, went out to Ciifton, Spring Grove and other places of interest. The arrivals of strangers during tLe day are below yesterday. At 3 o'clock this afternoon every seat in the house for to-night was taken. The Executive Committee have determined ou a rehearsal to niorrow inoruin. Another concert will be held to-morrow evening, as announced. The great mat tcr of,iuterest after that is the picnic on Sunday, for which tbe most extensive prcpar&'ions have been made. Ten eftiiibota will run between the grounds and iho city, and trains wiil leave every tl.irty mitnues. Tho audieuce at the grand concert tonight was quite equal to any preceding one. The arrangements at the ball were better than lust night. Indeed, all cause for complaint was removed, and the most complete older secured. The aisles, which were crowded last night, were all cleared, and persons standing were compelled to occupy spaces between the fceaU uud post aud in the gallery. There has been no speotaele since the beginning of the Festival equal to that presented by this grand audience from tbe stage. More than ten thousand upturned faces can be seeu watching tho performers with an interest not before seen. The peiformance to-night was introduced with symphony in D sharp by Bsethoyon. Though not novel, no instrumental performance since the commencement of the Festival has equaled this in character and smoothness of sound. Tho secouij movement was singularly good, and the wholo better demonstrated the superior strength aud quality of the orchestra thau anything hitherto attempted. "Heil Dtr, Goettiu des Gesanges," composed for the Mrennerchor, with solos and orchestra, by C. Krebs, Royal Saxon Musical Director at Dresden, was sung by the eufre IJutij with the same success tbat characterized the performance last night. Mrs. Dexter sang from the Oratorio of Sampson. Her appearance on the stage was the signal for applause, and at tha close was com plimented in a mauner thai no pcror:ya nco has received. 1'he reception that lyopta received to night was quite as flittering as at the former concert. ' 'Ihe "Calm Sea," and 'Happy Yoyage and Endless Spring,' the lortuer by the orchestra, and the latter by the bund, formed the first half of part sec ood, and was followed by tbo '-Ah Chi Assorti," by Mrs. Dexter, who, in response to a flattering enoore, repeated by request "Thou art so near, aud yet so far.' The ?4:h Psalui closed the evening entertainment and the last grand concert of the bund. At this meeting the concert has been ;j very satisfactory one, though it has not, as a wheje, been received with extraordinary enthusiasm. Cincinnati, June 18. At the business meeting of the North American Saengerbuod now in session, resolutions were adopted dropping from the rolls all societies who have failed to pay the dues aod have not participated in the Saeogerfest. There was a large attendance at the Saengerfest this morning. The proposition to have a sacred concert to-morrow eveosng was abandoned. It is thought that the singers would rsturn from the

picnic so tired that it would be impracticable. The arrivals have besn large this morning, particularly from the adjacent towns and cities. Tbe weather bas been proptious every eioce the inauguration of the Fest. The next Saengerbund will be held in St. Louis, in 1872. At a meeting of tbe members of the Bund this morning, a new constitution was adopted. Meetings will hereafter occur every twoyears. Competitive singing is specially provided for. The other changes are not important. A commission was appointed to look after delinquent societies they go out under action oi this morning. This morning, an a watchman at the Saengerfest building was lighting the gas, the flame came in contact with some dear orations, which took fire. The flames were extiugui.-hed without any more serious damage than the destruction of two three flags, but the consequences were serious. The fire alarm was turned on and tbe engines were quickly on the spot. As the latter were approaching, hor&e attaehed to a buggy took frit lit running over four 'persons. A Mrs. Wolf was so badly hurt that she wiil probably die. George Ilartly. six cars old. w as dangerously injuted in tbe breast. Wm. Otto, same age was was seriously hurt, and a Mrs. Otto, who interfered to save her boy, received some injuries. 4 The audience at tbe concert to night was large, though less than on the precedeing evening. The entertainment opened with the first oioveaieut of the overture to Mendelssohn's "Calm Sea," which was executed still more successfully than last night. Next followed ehoruses by individual societies. Tbe Louisville Frosbinn sang Beaatiiul Kliii.e the Sandusky Mannerchor the German musis, both being heartily applauded. Th Cleveland Mannerchor sang the Tuikih Diinking Song, which received an encore. The Wooster Mannerchor sang the Forest Prayer, which was encored. The orchestra per

formed Sarghelto, from Symphony in IV by Beethoven. Scheryo and tho Adagio movement in Columbus is- now perloruir ing. The latter was a gcat idupjoveuieut ovei tli-e rstredirg aP.oi The Cleveland GesancreM sa.ng The Water Lily, encored. The. Couuubu Mannerchor sansr God be Thou, with me,, i and Ariun Des Westerns, from St. Louis, sang, Wanderer's 0lei fcier, both rtcti-v,-ing aud deserving eutlniriuftie applause-. The bund closed tbe vocal part ol the per for in a nee wiib Tli:s is ihe day of the j Lord.' The Grand orchestra tlUu exevu ! ed the sIWlmo movement to lite Columhus Ly uiphi-nic, and tbe uiUMcial part of the Grand Saengerfest of the Noi thi A tiicsican Saengerbund, was concluded. Ihe total receipts to concerts have becu abcut 20.000. Cincinnati, June ia. The Grand Saengerlest picnic came off to day at short's Grove. SS f earn boats were plying between the city and the giouuds ail dav. atid trains were ruimiiiii at Short intervals. About fuity thousand persons were prrsent. Speeches were made by Dr. Liiienthal. Dr. Wi.-c, Judge Stailo, Colonel Moore and Wiiitam S. Foray. The singers iu sttendaure upon tUe Saengerfest were boquetted, and the day was largely spent in sii.girg, inlet uu'loual music aud festivity. Tbe immense coocourse was orderly. The Hon. James Hughes wiites a letter to tbe Journal announcing himself un independent candidate for Cougress from Yoorbees' district. lie says: 4 I do not wish to be elected, and do not expect to be; 1 do not want any i-llice, I desire no party licminaiion, because it would trammel and cmbairabs me iu the discharge of public du'y. 1 would f.iin be a repiesentative of thy people, responsible to ibini aloue.'' His platform is: ' 1 will advocate an equal and just tariff; the repeal of lie whole Internal Uevenuc sys except an income tax, the latter to he col!ecitrf through the State Government; the paymeu' "f the principal of the live twenty bonds in Uw',"'i Stares legal tender notes, which includes .1? abolition of National Banks, aud a National Convention to consider ihe pro riety of amend ing the 1 otistiiutioti ot the U niteu States. 1 would have the Constitution and its amendments ratilied or reformed by the direct will of a free people, iu time of peace, not on term declared to prostrate States by Congress, reacting on the other States and establishing a tentral Government with imperial powers, different fioui the one framed by those who achieved our independence." This manifesto will hardly create a ripple save one of disgust against an already hopelessly fallen politician. Butler's Amnesty bill exempts from its provisions all who were educated at West Point or Annapolis; members of the rebel Congress; any ono who was a United States Minister, Judge, or held a like rebel position; those votinr for secession; rebels who crully treated Union soldiers; those who embezzled Government -. roouey or siores, and deserters. All property taken by the United States uuder decree of Courts and the Confiscation acts is vested iu its present holders The "wickedest paper in New York" (tho Sun) tbiuks the drift of the current i against the Republican party, and blunderingly cites tbe Oregon election in illustration. The Euquirer is tickled with this idea, but discreetly suggests to its co-laborers to "wait until you hear the political hurricane of aiitntun, as it passes over Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota and Missouri.'' That will make a shaking arnong the withered leaves of Democracy worth seeing. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS Notiec or Election of Trustees.
