‘ ■ ) Meyerbeer's lust Opera.
■yv* find In * London fashionable journal the
lollowlng' facts respecting the last work of the
' deceased maestro. They will doubtless prove most
Interesting to onr nmaioal readers, Tor whose benefit
we clip them from our English contemporary:
•‘A great many reports have been circulated on
the subject or Meyerbeer’s 1 Afrlealne,’ and oertalu
alleged additions and alterations In the muslo attri
buted to M. Fetfs. It Is known that 11. Fstls Is
superintending the production of the work, but he
-has neither added anything nor taken anything away
from the original score. Moyer beer had not only
finished the opera to the last note, but had set some
f ortlons ef It In two and even three different ways.
t has been M. Fotla’ task to ohoose between these
various readings, and It was not likely that a man
of hie judgment In matters of art would think of
substituting his own music for that of Meyarbear.
Meyerbeer appears at one time to have entertained
some idea of adding a soene of a very novel kind to
the last aot. The dreamso! the Afrlosnherolne, dying
beneath the upas tree, were to have been rendered
visible to the bodily eye of the pabllo by means of
tableaux represented by dancers, grouped at the back
of the stage behind a gauze curtain* No muslo has
toeeuleft for this scene, and it !b not at alloertaln that
3yie?er*lfhe had lived, would ever have carried out
his notion. Afl It Is, the servlceaofthe ballet will
not be required in the last act. we may here men*
tlon that there Is little ballet music of any kind In
■L'AfHoalne.’ There are two great lnstumental
pieces, however, an ‘ Indian, March,; and a 1 Bell
slons March.’ The former of these includes a no*
for a troop of danolng girls, who are Introduced In
the midst of a triumphal procession. There are
twenty-one ‘numbers’ in the opera, without count
ing the marches, and seven of them are to be
brought out either iu two or three different keys.
Mile. Battu’s atr in the first act, ‘Adieu mondoux
rivage,’ and Mlllo. Sax’s air m the seaond, ’ Sar
mes gencux,’ will both he published in twn keys.
M- Faure’s air in the second act, ‘ Ffile des rots,’
will be published for baritone, tenor, and bass; and
there will also be two transposed editions of a bal
lad which M. Faure has to sing In aot three. The
muslo publishers have evidently a high opinion of
M. Faure’s part. Great hopes, too, are entertained
of M. Kaudln’s air in the fourth act, 'O, Paradis
sortl de l’onde,’ and we are promised a baritone air,
and ‘ amelody extracted from the air.’ This is the
one pleoe in the' ’Africaine’ of which four different
editions will be produced. Toe pianoforte score of
the opera la by M. Vauthrot, who has arranged It
as a solo and a dnet.”
Xbe Abolition of Imprisonment for Debt
in France.
The bill in favor of abolishing Imprisonment for
debt has iust been distributed to the members of the
Legislative Body, the preamble being written by
M.jjayie-MottiUard, of the Court of Cessation. The
Jvtnir National highly praises the manner in wuct
the document is drawn up, and adds:
“'When Blaveiyw&B a social institution, for the
bodv of a man to answer for his debt was natural;
as man oould be a saleable article, he also could be
a pledge. In those times Imprisonment for debt
was justifiable, if not morally, at least logically*
The. Roman, besides, who arrested his debtor la
order to make the latter his property, could make
money of the other’s work, so that the arrest of the
debtor was at least is the interest of the creditor.
At the present time there still survives a punish*
ment invented under the system of ancient slavery,
and that penalty Is in no way of advantage to the
creditor’s Interests. In vain JVL Parent, reporter (a
the Clumber of Deputies of the law of 1832,
Said: ‘imprisonment for debt is. a mean 3
Of overcoming the dishonesty of him who might
seek to conceal his property.’ Facts prove that
snoh oases do not exist, or are quite exceptional.
In fact, within a period of ten years, from 1855 to
1864 exclusively, out of 5 924 prisoners at Ollohy,
2j7B—neatly one-half—owed less thanl.OOOf.; 1,224
owed more than l,ooof.,and less then 2,000 f., from
which fact M. B&yle-JVLoulllard concludes, with
good reason, that the debtors were honest. ‘lt is
not, indeed,’ he says, ‘to avoid the payment of a
sum of less than 1,01.0'. that a man who can satisfy
his oreditors resigns himself to imprisonment, and
to Incur expenses which, rapidly doable the capital
of that small debt.’ Thus the creditor who believes
that he will obtain payment by such a rigorous
measure Is almost always disappointed ia his hopes.
Statistics prove the fact. Oi 6,577 persons set at
liberty during the last ten years, 515 only—not a
twelfth —owed their release to the payment of the
debt. Besides, even should the results be more
favorable to the creditor, let U 8 remember the lan*
gnapeor Mentes^uien; ‘The law ought to prefer
the liberty of one citizen to to the case of another.’ 11
Network of Fbbjtch Railways.— Several In
teresting facts are gleaned from a return just issued
by the French Minister of Public Works. The re
ceipts of the lines forming what Is known In France
as the old network of railways were, last year,
.£16,972 950, as compared with £16,404,281 In 1853,
showing an increase of £568,669. The average ex
tent of line Is operation upon the old network last
year was 4,753*£ miles, and 4.672 K miles In IBS3.
The traffic thus increased last year upon the old
network to the extent of 1.70 per cent, per mile.
The new network of lines acquired £3,957,483 last
year, as compared with £8,494,052 In 1563, showing
an increase of £463,401. The average extent of line
In operation upon the new network last year was
2,963J£m11e8, as compared with 2,5261£ miles in
1563. The traffic thus decreased last year upon the
sew concessions to the extent of 3 44 per cant per
mile. Combining the receipts of the old ana now
networks, we find that the aggregate amount ac
quired last year upon the railways of France was
£20,930 433, with an average of 7,7i6>a miles, against
£19,808,363 with an average of miles In 1868.
Last year, according!?, witnessed an increase la the
receipts of £1,082,070, with an average of 503# addi
tional miles, showing a general decrease of 1.88 per
cent, per mile worked In 1864 as compared with 1863.

Something about Ho»dubas.— The principle
business of the country is mahogany cutting, pro
secuted at times, and according to the demand with
great assiduity. Logwood, cochineal, hides, cedar,
and turtle are also exported In considerable quanti
ties. Besides all this, of late years Ballzo has been
made the depot of British manufactures and foreign
merchandise consigned to certain parts of Central
America. The value of the Imports is about three
millions of dollars annually, and the exports about
four millions. Several hundred vessels visit Belize In
the course of the year, of which the largest number
are British. The weights and measures are also
British, and the public revenue is about one hun
dred thousand dollars. It is governed by a Go
vernor, Legislature, and an executive council. The
former receives a salary of nine thousand dollars
per annum. There are judges, courts, clerks, and
twenty-three civil officers of various ranks, with
Bale-Ties from one thousand to three thousand dol
lars. It Is, therefore, ft regular colony, in all its re
spects, self-governing like the other British posses
sessions, and dopendeut like them on the crown.

as Is proved by the preparations belonging to the

preserve all their flexibility for forty days. It is
only at that period that they begin, to dry up, still

THE CITY.
BOARD OF CONTROL.
A stated meeting of the Board of Controllers of
Publlo Schools was held yesterday arternoon,
In the absence of the President, Mr. Hllles was
called to the chair.
A communication was received from the second
Section, ashing that the store-room No. 6, on Wash
ington avenue, be rented lor a sixth division of the
Bobert Rafises’ school house. Referred to Commit
tee on Property with power to aot.
One from the third section, asking that the fence
around the grounds of the Mount Vernon School,
whloh has been blown down, be replaced with a brick
wall of sufficient height to dispense with a fence,
and that the BoaTd request City Councils to appro*
priate $250 lor that parpose. Referred to City
Councils.
One from the eighth seellm, asking that a room
at Broad and Walnut be rented for the accomoda
tion of an additional division. Referred.
One from the Fifteenth section, asking that the
lot on the north side of Brown street, between Co
rinthian avenue and Twenty-second street, be sub
stituted for the lot in said eactton objected to by
the mayor. Referred to Counollß.
One from the Seventeenth section, asking that
the lot at the northeast corner of Lawrence and
Mastor streets, 113 feet on Lawrence and 100 feet on
Master, he secured for the erection of a sofiool
fcouse. Referred to Councils.
One from the Twenty-first section, asking that
theCemao property in the Ninth precinct of the
Twenty-first ward be seemed for the establishment
of a sohcobhouEO, of which there is much need in
that section. Referred to Councils.
One from Common Councils, asking the board to
report to them the number of scholars attending
our public schools who are not residents of the city,
and what schools said children attend.
Mr. Freeborn knew that the:e was a very large
number or children who oame f/om Camden to
school in this city. Children with books In their
arms had been sees coming off the Camden boats,
and were followed to the several school-houses. The
scholars entered their names and residences from
the house of a relative in this city, and it was a
difficult thing to find these children.
Mr. Hines moved that Councils be Informed that
the Board has no official knowledge of any scholars
attending our schools who are not residents.
Col. Moore w&b opposed to referring the matter
to the Committee on Grammar Secondary, and Pri
mary Schools. He preferred to refer Itto the police
along the river front. Tee seotional boards ought
to attend to this matter. As Daniel Webster had
said, New Jersey was an elegant State to emigrate
from; but while that State Is able to pay for Its In
ternal improvements they ought to be made to edu
cate their children. It should be made the business
of every sectional board to see that no one is admit
ted into their schools who Is not entitled to that
privilege. He was Inclined to think the whole thing
a bugaooo. New Jersey had some splendid schools,
and because there were two or three children at
tending our schools from Camden a great talk was
got up about all Jersey coining over hers. The mo
tion to refer the matter to the sectional boards w&3
agreed to.
The report c-f the Commltteo on Accounts was
lead and approved, and warrants for the payment
of the several bills, amounting to $10,090.52, were
ordered to be drawn in favor of the several parties
to whom the same are due.
The Committee on Supplies reported adversely
to the claim of Geo. w, Ooo\ery for an appropria
tion for increased cost ot coal which he furnished
under a contract. The report was accepted and the
committee discharged Irom the further considera
tion of tbe subject. .
TL* Committee on Property reported that, hav
ing examined into the claim of John Dougherty for
grading the yard of the Carrol! School, Twenty-fifth
section, amounting to $202. deem it inexpedient to
aik Councils to make any appropriation therefor,
said work having been done without the authority
©f this Board.
The claim of Roger Mahan, for work and material
supplied Barton School, Twenty-fifth section,
amounting to $74 50, is also refused upon the game
grounds. The report was adopted.
The report of the Committee on Grammar, Se
cotday, and Primary Schools, confirming a number
of appointments of teachers, was road and approved.
The matter of altering the time of holding the
sessions ol the schools, which was postponed from
the last meeting, was taken up.
Colonel Moore strenuously advocated the change.
The best time for ibcompJiriilng work was la the
morning. He appealed to business
men Whether they were as capable ot work after
cUhhgt as they were before; he believed that to add
hall an hr ur on the mornlcg session and take It off
the afternoon would be beneficial to tbe Intellectual
as well as the physical development of the children.
■They could, after the afternoon sessions in these long
days, go into the fields in the country, and by taking
ppec afr exercise improve their constitutions.
Mr. Levlck moved to amend by retaining to
I!**, and altering the afternoon session fromzto
4^,
Colonel Moore. I accept that amendment, Mr.
Levlck, with a great deal of delightfuin&as.
An objection, that the rules would require that
amendment to 11® over for one month, was made. •
Dr. Nebinger moved to farther amend, by making
the hours from 9 to IS and from 2 to
Dl\ NeMrger withdrew his motion, and the origi
nal motion,'as amended by sir. adopted.
* A motion to put Primary and Laigar
Speller on the list of text boo&s. passed. Adjourned.

THE POWDER MAGAZINE*
The barn which is located within a few rods of the
powder magazine, near Point Breeze, le.a pretty
large structure. The conflagration of such a build
ing, In close proximity to so much explosive powder
stowed in the magazine, might prove destructive
to life and {property to an indefinite extent. This,
of oourse, must be left to conjecture. If, however,
the explosion of four or five tons of powder, at
Messrs. Dupont’s mills, in the State of Delaware,
produced sufficient concussion to shake Philadel
phia, and make the town hali at Norristown trem
ble on its foundation, what would be the probable
result if one hundred or two hundred tons should
explode in a magazine, built of Immense strength,
witblD three miles and a half of Independence Halit
The community was appalled yesterday, when It
was announced in The Press teat the barn near
the powder magazine had been fired, it was not
until the publication of the faot that an official
announcement was made that Fire Marshal
Blackburn had already made an investigation of
the occurrence* With all his genuine tact and
ability he has failed to positively ascertain how,
when, or by whom the match was applied. His
theory is, that this barn was fired by a prowling
tbief, who had Ignited a number of other barns in
different rural sections of the city, extending over
an area of from ten to fifteen miles. That fellow
was convicted in the ortmlnal court on Monday.
The Flie Marshal has had enlarged experience in
ferreting out the origin of fires, and his opinion is
worthy of great considertlon j bis theory in the pre
sent case may be true, but after all it Is simply
theory, and thus jt must remain. In the absence Of
fact. There is no disputing one fact, and that is,
early on a recent morning Mr* Davenport, the
beeper of the magazine, discovered that sometime
during the previous night the bam had been set
on jirc.'
That the magazine has been left unguarded for
some time post is another fact, but it will be some
gratification to the public to know that prompt
efforts have been made to prevent intrusion on the
premises where the magazine is located. Measures
will probebly be adopted at once by the State au
thorities to build another magazine, as directed by
by law, and abolish the old one, which has so long
been the cause of great excitement amoug a very
large portion of the community of Philadelphia*
NORTHERN HOME FOR FRIENDLESS CHIL-
The twelfth anniversary of the Northern Home
for Friendless Children was held laßt evening In
the Union M. E. Church, Fourth street, below Arch.
The attendance was quite large. About one hun
dred of the boys belonging to the institution occu
pied the front seats. Rev. E H. Torrance pre
sided. The report of the trustees was read. It sets
out that during the year 390 children were admitted
into the Home, 241 of whom were boys, and 149
girls. Eighty-eight were the orphans of soldiers.
During that time 259 were dlsmlesort, 118 were pro
vided With places, and 141 were restored to their
relatives. The annual report of the treasurer
shows a balance in the treasury of $1,148.19 against
a halanoe of laßt year of $2,828.04. Addresses were
made by Rev. Alexander Reed, Rev. Major Mat
lack, Rev. Samuel Macßuraey, and others*
In the afternoon the annual meeting of the con
tributors was held, when sixteen trustees and
twenty-four managers were elected to serve during
the ensuing year.
Mr. M. J. Mitoheson, secretary of the board, of
fered a series of resolutions relative to the assas
sination of President Lincoln, and prefaced his re
marks with an address eulogistic of Mr. Llnooln,
and deploring his loss. He said that Mr. Lincoln
had expressed a lively interest in this institution,
and always interested himself in the care and wel
fare of the orphans of soldiers.
MBS. evebsbach commits suicide.
Mrs Ernestine Eversbaoh, the unfortunate woman
who, with her husband, was admitted into the Penn*
sylvania Hospital, about a week ago, from injuries
received while fighting each other, leaped iroma
window In her ward, on Saturday night, breaking a
jaw, one of her arms, and severely bruising herself,
though she fell but ten or twelve feet. She was so
badly hurt that she died on Sunday night. From
the time of her admission into the hospital until she
leaped from the window she did not show any symp
toms of Insanity, and nothing of the kind was
thought of. She had conversed rationally with her
medical attendant, and spoke of the occurrence be
tween her husband and herself, admitting that she
struck him on the head with a piece of iron, and said
that in failing he had struck his temple against the
stove. The quarrel between them, according to her
statement, began by her complaining of his spend
leg so much of his time from his family, and which
was followedfiy blows from him. The piece of iron
was cot used, she said, until he had struck her seve
ral times. Coroner Taylor held an inquest, and a
verdict of suicide was rendered*

THE NATATOBIUM,
The condition Of the atmosphere has very little
to do with the comfort of the participants in the
healthful and manly exercise of swimming at the
Natatorlum. The water is kept at a uniform tem
perature by means of a steam engine and boiler.
There Is every reason to believe that the comfort of
all subscribers at this institution during the present
season, will, under Dr. Jansen’s regulations,'be far
superior to those enjoyed last summer; and, al
though no complaints were made last year, it is
determined by the management that there shall be
no room for anything but praise*

James Stetler, by hts next friend, etc., vs. The
Arch Street Passenger Ball way Company. This
action was to recover damages for bodily injuries
sustained because of the alleged carelessness of the
defendants’ employees, or agents. Plaintiff, aged
about 20 years, was run over by a oar belonging to
tbe defendants on the 4th of April, 1863. Aceord’
leg to the testimony of the main witness for plain
tiff, he, the witness, was at or near the corner of
Filth and Arch on the day of the accident, await
ing the arrival of his mother In one of the Arch
street oars. Be saw the car la which plaintiff was
stop a few doors above Areh.street, and aaw him In
the act of stepping from tbe platform when the car
was started, the plaintiff being thereby thrown
down, and upon the parallel or upper track of the
railway. A car was just at that moment passing up
towards the Schuylkill, and witness said he saw the
car pass over stetler’s body. The latter was very
badly hurt, he having sustained a compound frac
ture of the right thigh, besides other Injuries. He
was removed to the Pennsylvania Hospital, where
he remained under surgical treatment until July,
1863, when he had sufficiently recovered to be dis
charged.
The surgeon who attended him while at the hos
pital, and also the surgeon who has attended him
since, testified that the Injured leg will always be
shorter than the other, and that hls general health
had been so much shattered that he was not now,
and probably would not, for a long time to come,
he able to attend to business. This was the sub
stance of plaintiff’s case.
The defence, on the other hand, denied that they
were In anywise responsible for the accident, and
alleged that It was solely attributable to the care
lessness and recklessness of the plaintiff himself.
In support of this they proved the statement of
stetler, to tbe effect that the accident was caused
by himself, and that he alone was to blame tor it. It
was also proven that It was in an attempt to jump
irom the platform of one oar to that of another,
oaeh being In motion and going In different direc
tions; that, mlsslDg his footing, as was to be ex
pected, he fell under one of the ears, and was run
over. It was also Bhown that the accident occurred
near Fourth street, and not above Fifth, as was
testified to by the principal witness for plaintiff.
The jury rendered a verdict for the defendants.

Mbs. H. G. Brown—-Madam : —I have been to the
city several times, but had not time to call. I have got
entirely well, and under God I owe It to you. My right
earl have not heard any with for a number of years,
I can now hear tome with it. My left ear, the Shearing
left it just after harvest; in this way: I took a diui
nee* in my head, so I could not work, accompanied
with a ringing noise in my ears. I was so bad that I
could not bear without they wonld halloo at the top of
their voices. I first got a prescription from a phj siclan.
Which consisted of almond oil and something else (I
can’t t«jU what). I also tried almond oil alone, but it
did me no good": then I got some Homoeopathic msdiolne,
hat with the same effect, 1 then tried old women’s
cures by the score; eti.i no benefit: I went to Philadel-
Ebia, put myself under the care or a celebrated Aar Ist;
c bored at my ears with Instruments, and run others
up my nostriir, for five weeks, and ended by cheating
me ontcf seventy* fire dollars ($75), as that was all the
benefit I received from him. T theu sew one of your

not more than half of it, and have recovered my hear*
