her. On the 3d of June Lieutenant-Commander W. E. Fitzhugh received the surrender of Lieutenant J. H. Carter and the Confederate naval forces under his command in the Red River. On the west Gulf coast the blockade continued until the end, several important cutting-out expeditions occurring during January and February. Among these the most noteworthy were the capture of the Delphina, January 22d, in Calcasieu River, by Lieutenant-Commander R. W. Meade; of the Pet and the Anna Sophia, February 7th, at Galveston, by an expedition organized by Commander J. R. M. Mullany; and of the Anna Dale, February 18th, at Pass Cavallo, by a party sent in by Lieutenant-Commander Henry Erben. After the surrender of Mobile, Admiral Thatcher turned his attention to the coast of Texas, and on May 25th Sabine Pass was evacuated. On the 2d of June Galveston surrendered, and the war on the Texas coast came to an end. The Levee at Nashville, looking down the Cumberland. From a War-time photograph.

s Cavallo, Texas, waiting for part of her crew, when she intended to slip out to prey on Federal commerce. This vessel had been observed for several days apparently watching an opportunity to get to sea when the wind favored her. Lieutenant-Commander Henry Erben, Jr., of the Panola, had been watching her closely, and at night kept picket-boats close to the inlet to see that she did not slip out without due notice from the boats. On the night of the 18th he sent in two armed boats, the gig and and F. E. Ellis; Acting-Ensigns, Wm. Lyddon, B. M. Chester, Chas. Putnam and C. L. Crandall; Acting-Master's Mate, H. T.

The urgency for consular reform has of late been frequently brought to the attention of the public by a series of interesting magazine articles, each of which was extensively, and with very few exceptions favorably, commented upon by newspapers of both parties throughout the country. A forcible address was also delivered on the subject to the National Board of Trade by Hon. Theodore Roosevelt; and more recently Admiral Erben, whose opportunities nave been frequent of observing the sorry figure often cut by our consuls in comparison with those of other countries, has expressed himself as strongly in favor of this reform, which is advocated by the National Board of Trade and other commercial bodies. Between March 4 and Dec. 31, 1893, thirty out of thirty-five consuls-general and 133 out of 183 first-class consuls and commercial agents were changed, the numbers in the British Empire alone being seven consuls
New Church organ. --A large and handsome organ has just been put up in Rev. Dr. Hoge's Church, (2d Presbyterian,) in this city, by Mr. Henry Erben, the celebrated organ-builder, of New York city. It is represented by those who are familiar with musical matters, to be an instrument of exquisite tone, combining, in its various stops, harmony of sound with volume sufficient for a large church edifice.-- It was subjected to a thorough trial last night by several professors of music, and we doubt not fully answered the public expectatation. Mr. Barber has been appointed organist. The taste of the people of Richmond in the matter of church music has within the past few years undergone a decided change for the better: for whereas, not long ago organs were looked upon as an innovation by the good people generally, they have now come to believe that no choir is complete without this grand accompaniment.
