THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, M.vUOIl in, 13 1. fflUSll'AIj AWD DKIMATIC. "Iaalfitllen"at the Wstlnnt. Falconer's drama ol Inn if alien: or, the Men in the Gap, has been successfully represented in this eitr dnrlug previous engagements of Mr. and Mrs. Williams, bat never with the same attractive mountings as it Was last night. The play tells the old, old etory of an abortive Irish "rising," in which the patriots are defeated rather by the machina tions of traitors within their own ranks than by the strength of their opponents. The plot Is well constructed, and presents a number of highly effective dramatic points, and opportuni ties are afforded for some fine scenic effects, which are improved to the utmost in the present production of the play. The new scenery is by Mr. Heilee, the artist ot the Walnut Street Theatre, and it embraces views of the country about the Kll larncy Lakes, which are taken from authentic sources. In the fourth act a panorama of con siderable merit is exhibited, and the scenic effects are altogether of a more than usually at tractive character. Innisfallen, while it con tains nothing very novel in the way of character and incident3, is quite as entertaining as most pieces of its class, and it affords Mr. and Mrs. Williams, who personate the peasant hero and heroine, "Terrence O'Kyan" and "Maggy Ma guire," ample opportunities to exhibit the idio eyncracies of the conventional stage Irishman and Irish ulrl for the delight of their admirers. Tfe CUT AmuicntDM. At Ths Walndt the drama of Inn isf alien will be repeated this evening, with Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams in the leading rolea. At thb Chesnut Mr. Davenport will repeat his superb personation of "tir(iiles Overreach." in A Aew Way to Pay Old Debts, this evening. At ths Ancn Lotta will appear this evening In the drama of Fire Fly. At the American a miscellaneous entertain ment will be given this evening. To-morrow evening there will be a family performance, when the programme will bo arranged to suit the tastes of ladies, children, and family parties. The ladies and young peo ple who have attended on the previous family nights of the present season have been highly delighted with the performances, and the mana ger and the company have exerted themselves to make a favorable impression on these occa sions. The company of tbe American is large, and it contains much talent, while the interest of the public is maintained by a constant suc cession of attractive novelties. At present the great Arab troupe of acrobats are exciting much enthusiasm by their curious and wonderful feats of agility and strength. The perform ances of these acrobats differ from those usually seen, and they nightly awaken much applause. The rantomime of Jocko; or, The Brazilian Ape, which is given each evening, is another interesting feature, and the funny tricks which it contains create an infinite amount of amusement. It is not necessary, however, to go into details with regard to the attractions offered at the American, for one act succeeds another with so much rapidity that it is scarcely possible to keep an account of them. Ballet, Dutch comedy, local sketches, minstrelsy, Ethiopian acts, farce, comic and sentimental vocalism, pantomime, and a great number of other features engage the attention of the audi ence, making up an entertainment that appeals to all varieties of tastes, and that does not allow the interest to abate for a moment, fe On Saturday there will be a family matinee, when a fine bill of entertainment will be pre sented. At the Assembly Building, the two-headed girl will be au exhibition this afternoon and evening. At the Museum, Ninth and Arch streets, a dramatic performance will bo given this evening. At the Seventh Streut Opera House a variety entertainment is announced for this evening. A correspondent writes to ask if the brow of a hill ever becomes wrinkled? The only infor mation we can give him on the point is that we have often seen it furrowed. V1TT IT 1318. The Amekicaw Steam Safe Company, the safe makers to the United States Government, are the Bole manufacturers of the celebrated Steam Fire proof Safes, made according to the Invention and under the letters patent of Sanborn. The office of the company Is at No. 82 8. Fourth street, Philadel phia. These safes are considered positively burglar-proof, and are adapted especially for nse in bank vaults, where the burglar is to be feared more than fire, though the destroying power of the latter is also defied by this contrivance. This company manufacture bank vaults also, after the pattern of their safes, of welded steel and Iron. Both the vaults and safes are supplied with Sargent's, Isham's, and Pillard's patent locks. They likewise build after the same model steel express boxes and silver safes. One of the renowned burglar-proof safes made by this company has recently been purchased by the Kensington Bank of this city, which bank certainly has the best reasons for choosing tbe safe which Is best able to defy the arts of the burglar. Mr. William W. Cassia y, the Jeweller at No. 8 South Second street, has one of the largest and most attractive stocks or all kinds of Jewelry and Silver ware In the city. lie has also on hand a fine assort ment of fine American Western Watches.

Fur aititilionml 8ptcial fraHr Ml JnWif Fngm. fray TO TUB HONORABLE THE 8KNATK and House of Representatives of the Com roonwealth or Pennsylvania, in Ueneral Assembly The undersigned, citizens and taxpayers of Phlla- delphla. rrcpecflnlly request your honorable bodies to repeal the various acts respecting tbe erection or Public Huiidinjrs in the city of Philadelphia. inevio tnis from an earnest conviction that a f: rest wrong has been inflicted on them by the acts n question, which remove expenditures for matters of local concern from the control or those who alone have to bear the consequent burdens. jn mm, yonr petitioners io not in anv way mnv the legal right or the Leatslature to enact the laws referred to, but they respectfully submit that In the act of August 6 last, the Legislature f 1870 exer cised its power In a manner at variance with the principles or republican self-government iy crcatug and nominating a commission endowed with autho rity such as Is never granted even to representa tives of the people by a community mindful of Its liberties. I. With the exception of three ex-oftlcio members out of eleven, the commission is not In any way re sponsible to the people. II. It has no absolute term of service assigned to if, so that it can be rendered virtually perpetual at in? pleasure or Its members, m. It has the nower of fill leg vacancies in its own body. IV. It has authority, without limitation save its own discretion, to expend the money of the ciii.cus of Philadelphia, and to enter Into contracts binding on the city without check or supervision. Such a concentration or power in the hands or a small and Irresponsible body of men can scarcely fail to become the source of the worst political cor ruption and publlo demoralization. - Tne prospect of an unwise and stupendous expenditure has already alarmed the prudent and honest, and will auure tne Beinsu ana unscrupulous. Your petitioners would further submit that the legislation creating the existing commission was procured without application or petition therefor from the City Councils or people, aud that it was notoriously In conflict with the well-settled views of both. Many of those whose names are appended hereto voted, at the election of last October, In favor or Penn Square as the site or the public buildings. They have been convinced, however, that the best uae to be made or that square is to convert, It Into an open plaza, which, with Its neighborhood, would shortly become the most attractive spot in Philadelphia, from the beauty of the edifices that would speedily be erected around it by private capitalists and public institutions. For the ornamentation of such a plaza public-spirited citizens have already pledged them selves to contribute many thousands or dollars, and its propt r treatment would give io Philadelphia a metropolitan development without rival on this side or the Atlantic. To neglect the opportunity now presented would be, In the opinion ot your peti tioners, to throw away a chance that can never occur again. in view or tne sound principle mat tnose wno par taxes should be permitted to control the expendi ture or them a right dear to every city and town or the Commonwealth, each of which iu the future may sutler from the application of the unhappy pre cedent that has been made in the present Instance in view of the palpable fact that Philadelphia her self knows better what she wants than can possibly be known to the representatives of her sistor cities and towns that her development lndnstria'ly and socially, her pnblic molality, general prosperity, and future welfare, alike require that hcrselt should be entrusted wun tno aosoiuie management ana control or so great and weighty a matter as this in question, involving taxation ta the extent or many millions, your petitioners fervently urge your honor able bodies to speedily grant the relief herein, prayed for.
