HAUTE,

Jan. 17. 1S71.

DEAI SIR:—Mr. Strakosch, knowing me to be irom Terre Iiaute, lias just called to ask me to write you, and to explain if possible, more fully than l.o has done, the cuise of the great disappointment-our pe. pie will liavo this evening, at the i.ulure of M'He Nilsson to appear at the Opeia House.

Dr. Athon has just informed me that it would be a great wrong to insist upon her siiiginn, while her thront is so much inil,uned. Mr. Strakos.ch desires me to ,-av lie will telegraph his agent to procure the Opera House Thursday week or Mime other night during this month, if it can not be hatl then.

Our people will be greatly di-appointed, but perhaps the assurance that the occasion is on 1 to be postpone !, will con'ribTite in soii.ie degree to render the disappointment less bitter.

Tell them all to keep in good heart for when Uiev do hear her, all their complaints, it'they make any, will be turned to praise. Her performan last ldgLt was router than I can describe.

Yours, 13. W. IIAX.VA.

Mr. Parodi, Nilsson's agent, is now in the city, and assures us that they will till their engagement here at the earliest opportunity and thuUthey are now endeavoring to secure the Opera House on the evening of the 2Gth but Robert Nickel the Magician, having it engaged at that time, they will have to hire the use of the Hall from him. If they don't succeed in securing the Hall that evening, they will for the SOlli instant. BiUer though this second disappointment!?, we still have faith that we shall yet be favored \y^itli the appearance of this fair Quee'u of Song, and have such an entertainment as it has never b^en the good fortune of ourcitizens to attend.

LATER.—Mr. Parodi just informs us that he has made arrangements for the grand Nilsson concert to take place on the 30th inst., without fail.

The Army of the North is advancing again toward Somnie, carefully feeling its way, and meeting with no opposition. Gen.

Military movements are difficult, yet the entire army is in motion.

Gen. Faidherbe has been heavily reinforced with men and materials of war, and has commenced a series of maneuvers from whjch great results are expected.

It appears that in many cases persons entitled to pensions have failed to received them by reason of their ignorance of the above limitation.

In fact, no avenue of escape is open to him except selt-destruction.

Superintendent Ivelso, by an evasive reply, given the reporter, threw strong ground for belief in the actual existence of such a state of things, and putting ah facts together, and taking into consideration the history of the clues in the ease, a complete chain of circumstances pointing to the fact that the murderer is knowu and his whereabouts discovered, has been established.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 18.—A Are broke out in Xenla, Ohio, at 10 o'clock Monday night, in a large business house on the public square, that at last accounts was spreading learfully.

Big Guns for Paris.

"An Englishman" writes to the London 'Spectator llie-following curious information

It is within my own knowledge that guiis li^ve, fir weeks past, been lying in parts around Pari3 of incomparably greater range and calibre than any yet

employed during the present war. In the city of Frnnkfort-on-the-Main I witnessed, since September, the arrival of a train laden with siege pieces these guns were.on their way from Kmpp's factory in K1 en to the French capital, and, as t'v-y eail him in Germany, "King KruppV' workmen had labelled the trucks with the following announcement: '"We (tiie guns) are oil' to Pan-, and we'll see to that little atiair alone." Two cannon lay side by quite bear

side on the truck, the latter being quite new and of sufneient sfreti tho enormous weight. The' yuns were e:*eh some twenty feet in length, with a bore of twelve inches, all well riiied, and the conical shot thrown by ihern scaled, as an officer informed me, about live hunund weight English. Such tire the pieces with which King William proto eain possession of the forts

po^e-i

arou brought

around Paris and when they are

ev ar iil not

into play resistance

in. all probability, last much longer than

that of the Strasbourg citadel. No guns so formidable as those here described have ever yet been employed in actual warfare and even two or three huge naval guns brought from Cherbourg to Paris before tiie sei.uo are no match for them.
