MIm Wclilmrs' clntms Tor a mbstantlal token this
evening at the bands of ihe Philadelphia publlo It U
needless to dwell upont but considering tlie tact that
mainly through her exertions are we enjorin a season
of Eng Ish Opera, and that the exuemlro enterprise, thuj
tar to the dlncredlt of Philadelphia belt spoken has
not been at all icuiunorailve, those claim should not
be overlooked.
In ordinary times an opera such as the Bohemian Girt,
perfnimed aa It will be this evening, would be sufficient
to crowd tbebootoi but In tho present Initanoe the
artists are unfortunately An-riean. are resident with
us, and relj on their own merit, and not on advtnttim
jurry. lor success, Being t!i us crlanlnal, their talonts are
not recognized aa they should bo, and they are loft to
.straggle on as neat they mav, "pocket" their losses,
and learn by sd experience indeed, that ''prophets are
without honor in tbeli own country."
Could the niching- troop for the nonce be transformed
into Bawlluia, Saualltnls, aqrVHcroechlnis. and exert but
half their talents In 'ichjeV' Italian, tho crime de la
creme, the skimmed milk, and all other olasses of Ame
rican society would patronize them, and flatter them
selves that thev weredol.iga "hlg thing" for high art"
by so dologl It Is, indeed, mortifying that the acknow
ledged exponents of true art among us should find It so
dlfllcnlt to obtain a recognition of their merits, whon all
that is necessary to evoke It ad nauseum U to ajsutno
'torelgn airs and graces," and sing in a language unin
telligible even to the great majority of those who can
en Jui e ( I) no other conveyance for tho transmission of
.'sweet sounds"
We sincerely hopo, however, for the credit of our fair
cltr. that the genius, the extraordinary talent, and the
Indomitable persoveiance 01 Miss Itlchlngs will receive
a bitter acknowledgment at onr hands, and that a
oiowded audience this evening, at the Academy, w ill tes
tify Its appreciation of her woith, not only as an artist,
but alto as a high-toned, exemplary lady.

Tok Jewish IIolidats The Feast of
tdk tadkbnacle8 jt8 peculiar onhebvancb.
The l euitential feasts of Rosh Hashnna and
Yom Kippur being now over, it Is hpld by thoe
of the Jewish ta th that the Great Ruler, as ir to
recompense man for the unusual privations un
dergone duriup- the past three weeks, ordained
a holiday, which calls for far less severe cere
monies than those which we have already de
scribed. This least Is the ''Feast of tlioTaber
nacle." or 'uccolb." commanded In Leviticus
xxiii, 34 to 43, as follows-
"Speak unto tlie children of Iaraol, sayln7i The
flftti'iiib dav of this seventh mon h shall be the
Hast ot Tabornaolcs for soven davs unto the Lord.
On tho first day shad be a holy convooaunn j ye
thall do no servile work therein. Seven davs ye
snail offer an offrr.ng made bv fire onto the Lord.
On the eiphth day shall be a holy eon vocation unto
yon, ana re shall odor an offenno made by fire nnto
the Lord; it is a solemn assembly, and ye shall do
no servile work therein. Those are the foasu ot the
Lord, wblch ye shall proclaim to be holy convoca
tions to oiler an ottering made by firo unto the Lord,
a burnt ofl'orlng and a meat offering; a sacrifice and
dnuk oilering, everything upon His day. Beside
the Sabbaths of the Lord, and bnsido your
gilts, and beside all your vows, and besldo all
your lrce-wiil offerings, which ye give unto
tho Lord. Also on tho fifteenth day of the
seventh month, when ye shall keep a
least unto the Lord seven davs ; on tho first dav shall
be a Sabbath, and on the eighta day shall be a Sab
bath. And ye shall take on tho first daytholroits
ol goodly tree, branches of the palm treo, and the
boughs of thick troes and willows ot tho brook, and
ye shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven
davs. And ye shall keep it a least unto the Lord
soven days in tlie vear; It shall be a statute forever
In your generation; ye shall celebrate it in the
seventh month. Ye shall dwell in booths seven
days; all that are Israelites born shall dwoll in
booths. That your generations mv know that 1
made the children ot Israel dwell in booths, whin I
brought them out of the land of Egypt I am the
Lord your God "
This festival, which commences on Sunday
next at sundown, has, as will be seen above,
seveial ceremonies quite peculiar in their char
acter. First, the holy convocation or service in
the synagogues; second, tho sacrifice by Ure ot
of meat and diink offerings, now made obsolete
by the destruction of the Temple; third, the pro
hibition of servile work on the tirst two and last
two days; fourth, the taking of four species from
the vegetable kingdom; ana lastly, the dwelling
in DOOtllS.
The four species from tho vegetable kingdom
are the sprouts of goodly trees or "Esrog," a
species of pitted lemon, grown in Corfu and the
Suian Desert; the Palmleat branches or "Lulitf,"
Myrtle branches, three in number, each ot which
must have teven times three leaves standing
down the stem, and the willows of the orook.
These last three species are tied together In a
ppi-uliarruanuer, and every morning the "Lulaf,"
with the two kinds ot boughs tied to it, ts taken
into the lett hand ami the "Esrof?" in the right,
and alter a prayer for a prosperous season,
waved three times each to the left, right, up aud
down, backward and forward, as it to wave the
heavenly blessing from all quarters. This is
lollowed by the recitation of the prayer ol Hallel
or Psalms, 113, 114, 115, 11(3, 117, 118.
A circuit in procession is daily made around
the synagogue by those carrying "Zulals," pre
ceded by tne minister canyiDg the Holy Scroll.
The dwelling in booths, though not strictly
carried out to the very letter of the law in the
chansable climate of this country.is still followed
to some extent. Thse booths or tabernacles, or
"Succoth," which give the festival the name, aro
to be built so that the canopy of heaven, the
stars and moon, can be een through the roof.
This roof has to be constructed of lattice-work,
covered with fresh leaves. Inside of tho "Suc
coth" M)leodid decorations are generally Used,
such as golden apples, peanuts, oranges, paper
decorations, uud pictures, while in the centre of
most of them dangles a "Menouroh," or seven
armed lamps, made of silver or bras, which,
when lighted, gives the whole a Ray appearance.
AlmoBt every Jew, who has a back yard
attached to his house, has a succoth erected on
h's premises, In which he takes his meals with

ihe brst two davs are strictly ooserved, wtme
the Qve middle days are halt holidays, on which,
alter the services of the morning, work Is
allowed. The filth day ot the half uolidays, or
Hoshano habbo. wblch tradition has stamned as
a day on which the Almighty Uxes nually the
doom or those who have shown a repenting
mind, or Tom Kippur, but have not yet con
summated the repentance, is ushered in by the
laitbful with reciting of words of learning and
the psalms until the small hours oi the morning.
During tne morning services smau ouncnes oi
willows are taken into the synagogue, and the
leaves beaten off with a prayer that God might
clean man of his sins as tho stem is cleaned of
its leaves.
The eighth dav, or 'Sheminl Olzereth," and
the ninth day, "Simchath Thora." or joy of the
land, are close nondays. un tne even or tue
trst-named the laithful quit the Succoth for the
year amid prayers, while on the mornini?
solemn prayers are uttered for copious rain and
prosperous crops.
The "Simchas Thera" Is the day on which tho
Pentateuch, or five books ot Moses, are read
through, which Is done by weekly instalments
of several chapters each. On that day Deutero
nomy xxxiii and xxxlv is read in the syna
gogues. All the scrolls ol the law are taken out
of the ark and carried in loyful procession
around the svnagogue. accomnanied by child
ren dretsed in their best, carrying baskets of
flowers and nags. Alter the religious services,
family and public entertainments close the
series ot festivals ot the year.
The religious meaning ot these festivals is
plain. The Rosh Hashana inaugurates a series
of penitential leasts, which are terminated with
the Dav of Atonement, and succeeded by the
Feast of Tabernacles, the real and true import
ance of which Is expressed in Deuteronomv xvi,

An Aggravated Case. Jams Casey, a
New York thief with a plurality of aliases, was
arrested yesterday on the chargo of attempted
robbery and assault and battery with intent to
kill. The offonse was committed some time
ago, in a car ot the morning train from Wash
ington to New I oi k. 'ihe prisoner had vio
lently assaulted and attemnted to rob two
gentlemen, Mr. Evans and Dr. Otis. He struck
Mr. Evans down with a bluckjack, and then
kicked him in the face very violently, iiiliictlng
severe wounds and contusions. Casey esc iped
at the time, and was arrested -yesterday at
Seventh and Checnut streets, being recognized
by Mr. Evans, who pointed him out to the
police. Ca?ey is a professional, and is well
known to the police. He will have a hearing
belore the Mayor this morning.
False Pretenses. There was rather a
curious case of swindling occurred yesterday.
A man giving the name of Frank Evans bought
four horses from a man named T. T. Kingey,
for which he gave a check for $500 on the City
Bank. Mr. Kinney went away in great good
humor, thinking what a good bargain he had
maae ior mmseii; Dut our readers may judge
how his face lengthened when, on presenting
the check to the teller of the bank, ho was told
that Frank Evans did not have an funds
therein. Mr. Kingey, a sadder and wiser man,
Immediately put the affair in the ha-ids of the
police, and last night Frank Evans was captured
at bleventh and Coates streets, and had to de
liver over his plunder. He had a hearing be
foie Alderman Hurley this morning, and was
held in $1000 bail tu answer.
A Belligerent. Thomas Carr is nne of
those men in whom the bump of camOativeneis
is quite largely aeveiopeu, and upon which
whiky has a swelling effect, something after the
same manner which "Jack Easy's" governor
use to expeiience. On Wednesday morniug,
Thomas got into an altercation with a quondam
acquaintance, end soon came to the knock
down argument that caused considerable stir in
the neighborhood of Centre street, where it oc
curred. Thomas was arrested tor indulging In
his sportive play, and Alderman Good held him
in $1000 bail to answer.
Whaef Kat. One or these delectable
vermin, named Elijah Morris, had the bad luce
to bo caught in the very midst of his depreda
tions on Shippen street wharf last night. Taking
advantage of the darkness, Elijah (what's in a
name?) ekulked down behind a crate of crockerv,
and opening it, soon had a goodly pile of nic
new plates before bis greedy eyes. As h" was
menially calculating their value, the municipal
uniform met his startled gaze, and all his visions
of pain wero swept awav, and he was alo into
the Station House. This morning Alderman
Butler committed him to answer.
A Deliberate Robbery. Geo. Linnen
was arrested yesterday noon for stealing a box
of tuis, valued at niLety dollars, from a house
in Third street, above Vine. He took advantage
of tho people iu the house being at their dlnnei

to take care ol her. and 1 can't aflbrri tnnnnrmrt
both." Just so, ii a man buys the olota for bis
clothes, ho has to take it to a tailor to make Into

It is extremely doubU'al whether Pius IX cau
live in ltome with Victor Emanuel. The primi
tive Church is cited as an example. But too
example shows the impossibility of the joint
habitation ot the martyrdom of so many Popes
lor three hundred years, and by the voluntary
exile ol CoiiKtimitne to Byzantium. And it is
in the name ot lilierty that persecution is oil Vied
as au ideal to the Church. If it be a part of the
arrangements of Victor Emanuel to leave the
Pope a portion of Rome, that portion will be
lessened every day, and Pius IX would be about
as free in the'Vaticsn as Lotus XVI luthe Tuile
ries or the tower of the Temple. A residence at
Malta would secure to both him and his cardi
nals more coaiplelc liberty.
The Pope will consult the interest of the
Church alone, but should he ak France to keep
her troops at Borne tor a year or two longer, it
is probable that Prance will refuse, were it only
to dispel the dark cloud which the exile of Pius
IX would cast over the exposition ot 18G7.
We cannot see iDdced what is to prevent the
Italian revolution from ascending (he capltol.
France abandons Borne; Austria makes advances
to King Victor Emnnuel; all the Catholic pow
ers become more and more entuntrled in. revolu
tionary embarrassments under the pretext ot
capinp; lrom that ot the Roman questiin,
Christian princes seem more disposed to ally
themselves with the revolution than to rise in
defense of the Holy Father and the Catholic
Church.
Home, then, for one reason or another Is
really abandoned by men. It is quite natural.
therefore, that tne ciaiuims, utcasons, and
Garibaldis should nreoare their moral means
for taking possession of it. Tne only power
which tho revolution lias now to iear is uou.
But what is God in the eyes of certain persons
who are in the hieh places of power T A child's
scarecrow. All this is horrible, but it la true.
The French Cabinet The Appolutmemt
of the Marquis de Mounller aa Foreign
MlnUtcr It a Diplomatic Tendency aud
Significance.
Paris (Sept. 4) Correspondence of London Times.
The TemvH thinks it rather dlfllcuH to pene
trate the motives which rendered necessary the
resignation of M. Drouyn de Lliuys, and to
astlgn a signincance to tne cnoico or m, ae
lloustier as his successor. In 1855 M. Drouyn
de Lhuys resigned, alter the rupture of the
Vienna Conlerence, and the following year he
also withdrew from the Senate. He returned
to office in 18C2. Tho negotiations relating to
the aflairs of Poland and Schleswig-Uolstein,
the September Convention, the evacuation of
Mexico, are the most reniatkablo acta of his last
period of office.
The Tempi sums up as follows the conjectures
and remarks that have been current among tho
public during the last two days: "The opinion
baa lately spread that M. Drouyn do Lhuys ad
vocated energetic represedtations with respect
to the aeprandizenient of Prussia, and would
have pushed them pretty far. Nevertheless, it
would perhaps be hazardous to consider the
change ot men Just accomplished as the indica
tion of improved relations with Prussia. We
must not forget that the Constitution admits of
no ministerial responsibility.
M. Drouyn de Lhuys, who. puts hi name to
the Convention of the 15th of September, wa
certainly not, personally, an adversary of the
Holy See, nor even ot the French occupation of
Home. The Marouis de Moustier was formerly
Minister of France in Prussia, where he was
replaced by the Prince of La Tour d'Auvernno.
Has his old connection with the Court of Berlin
anything to do with the choice made of him
Minister of Foreign Aflairs? loes his experi
ence of the affairs of the East give value to his
assistance in the anticipated event oi a revival
ol the Eastern question ! Wo ask these ques
tions, but we do not pretend to answer thera.
It la not surprising that people should malce
rather far-fetched conjectures as to the motive
of M. de Moustier's appointment, for of all the
French diplomatbU now occupying important
posts, he is. perhaps, the one of whom the world
has heard least; but he is said to be ft man of
intelligence, and perhaps it is only want o op
portunity that has prevented his particularly
distinguishing himself. He was not a popular
man in Berlin, where he was resident from
March, 1853, to the end of 1859. He was then
accredited to Vienna, remained there less than
two years, was replaced by the Duke de (ram
roont, and weat to Constantinople.

The Great Review la Honor of Coniral Tdjad
and Staff on the Champs de Mars Ho n tie
Canadians Expoct to Kake General Msrla aa
Anti-Fenian.
Montreal, c. E., September 19. To-dny all
the regular lorce in mis city whs ordered to pre
pare lor review, the design being to do General
Meade honor lor the lanhiul execution ot hu
duties during the late att tck upou the provia-e.
ine ground chosen lor tne review is the old
ibamps de Mars, which, one hundred years aso
or more, was used by the French as their parade
ground. It is about t jur hundred yards long,
by one huujrcd and tilty wide, and lies in the
neart ol Ihe city, forming a little plateau on the
rear slope ol the nrstone ol the twocotes wbkh,
with the hollow between them, constitute tne
site of their city. There are two banks, the oue
stepping as it were from Notre Dame street t
tne Champs, and tne otner lrom the wound t
Craig sireot. On the tirst bank nave been laid
steps, whicii can nerve ba seats lor the people
whocome to look upon auy military pageant
such as that ot to-day.
At 10 o'clock the troops begun to maich luto
theChampi, andintwmty mmu'cs they wore all
there. The lorce consisted of two ba'tenea
(twelve guns), breech-loaders, and three bat
talions, namely, the 234 Royal WeUh Fusileeia.
25th King; Own Borderers (regiment of tlie
line), and tbe 4th Battalion Kille Brigade. The
newly armed troops were not present. . The
whole made a force of about eighteen hundred
men. On reaching tho ground they were
tormed uito contiguous columns of battalion"
and awaited the '
ARRIVAL OP GENERAL MF.A0E,
who came on the ground a few minutes later
He was mounted ou the Brigade Major horse '
Lut his two aids came on loot. As toe Oeoerai
rppioached the right of the line, band after
laud struck up, and when he got opposite
to General Lindsay, that oilieer aud 1ms stall
saluted him. General Lindsay then, alter a lew
words with the distinguished visitor, proposed
to dehlo the whole lorce belOre him in slow
time. It was put on inarch, and corps after
corps passed before the General, tne officers
saluting, and he returning the salute as he waa
wont to do with the divisions of the Army of
the Potomac. Thia over, the troops dellled in
quick time, and then in double quick, th throe
banos of the infantry being united aud otaaidine
in the centre of the Champs.
As tho two batteries went by him, Ooneral
Meade expressed to General Lind.-av his admira
tion ol their efficiency aud the perfection ot"
their appointments. It was with this arm and
the rifle battalion that he seemed to be most
struck. After the dehiement the 21d Regiment
wjis put through the bayonet exercise, which
the men performed very well, thoueh, as I have
belore observed, there are too many tbrusta
and parries more than would be used in war
fare. With this exhibition ot good drill Gene
ral Meade seemed to hn ucii ontiuiici ,.,i th.
end ot every movement frankly gave his praise
ot the drdl and steadiness shown by the meu.
There were about lour thousand people upon
the ground, and at the bayonet drill they cave
a jheer and made plaudits with their baud, at
which the men of the 23d were gratitled;.
Alter this an Armstrong gun of one of the
two batteries wasbhown General Meade, and m
he walked over lo it his two aids were also led
by one ot General Lindsay's stair to- examine
the gun. Every explanation was given br
Gt-neral Lindsay aud Colonel Pipon. It was
worked by its gunners in the presence of the
three American officers who looked on and
watched the gun with attention. This run,
lorras the best part of a British lorce. It is a
yery good oue, and as long as it would continue
in good order it would be very destructive to
an enemy. The ritlinir ot the gun is Bne, and.
to avoid injuring the grooves, rings of lead are
placed on the shell, that tho part which reel
against the bore may be softer metal than tmelf.
This renders the ammunition expensive and not
easily to be replaced.
Atter the examination of the breech-londinp
gun was over, General Meade returned to- tho
saluting point and looked on at a number of
manoeuvres made by the force, all of whicf
were executed with the precision and steadiness
that denote the soldiers of tne British array.
This over, the General left the erroiuid, appa
rently well pleased with the exercises in his
honor.
The weather was not all that could have been
desired, the sky boimr lowering. Drops of rain
fell at intervals. It was also cold, ami the day
was more like one in tbe end ot the-fall than
one in September but at this season the weather
seems "out of joint."
This afternoon General Meade will hold a re
ception, and all those who desire to pay their
respects to him will have au occasion to-do M
at the St. Lawrence Hall,
All this attention is shown to General Meade
in tbe hope that it will dispose him well towards
the Canadians, and render him anti-Fenian.
General Meado intends leaving to-morrow for
