TnUKSDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1866.
A Needless Flurry.
Tna Fenians are just at present terribly
exercised qver the conviction and sentence
of Colonel Lynch and. Father McMahon by
the Canadian court at Toronto. The frivo
lous attempt made by these two men and
their companions to disturb the peaceful rela
tions of two great nations entitles them to
hut little sympathy in the abstract. The case
would bare been far different it' their adven
ture could by any possibility hare tended to
forward the cause which they prolossed to
hare at heart the redemption and regenera
tion of Ireland. But when a crazy-headed
kDlght tilted bis lance against a windmill, be
was not engaged In a more hopeless or a more
useless contest than Is this which the Fenians
tare hitherto waged against the sovereignty
of Great Britain, at home and abroad. The
sooner they are brought to a hearty realiza-
. tion of this fact, the sooner will they be In
duced to change their present tactics, or to
Abandon the conflict at once And forever.
Perhaps nothing would tend more to dampen
their enthusiasm, and infuse a little wisdom
Into their counsels, than a striking illustra
tion of the fact that as soon as they step foot
u English soil they thrust their necks Into a
. halter. The hanging of Father Mc Mahon
and Colonel Lynch would of a surety be
uchan illustration as is needed in this case.
But we think our Fenian friends, and their
zealous patrons, the politicians of both parties
in this country, who are keeping an open eye
foa the Irish vote, need exercise themselves
no longer on this subject. No sane man in
this country or Canada believes that Mc Mahon
-and Lynch will be executed, according to the
sentence of the Court by which they were
tried and found guilty ot being citizens of the
. United States, engaged in levying war against
a power with which we are at peace. Even
ii the Colonial officials shuold exhibit such a
lack of decency and common sense as to feel
inclined to stretch their present brief autho
rity to its utmost limits, the Fenians should
remember that high over all stands the
power ot the home Government of the United
Kingdom, whose counsels are not altogether
in tbe hands of idiots. Great Britain will
not make martyrs of Lynch and McMalion.
By doing so she would only be crippling her
own powers and relaxing her hold upon her
North American dependencies. On tho con
trary, by commuting the punishment of the
Fenian prisoners who have fa'l?n into her
Lands, or even by permit'.ing them to go scot
Jree, she will strengthen bersell at home and
abroad. She will, moreover, by such a dis
play of magnanimity, gain the good-will and
sjmpathy of the civilized world a con
sideration which she is not accusLomed en
"tirely to ignore.
We do not doubt but that the letter ad
dressed by Secretary Seward to Sir Frederick
-Bruce, and which we published a few days
ago, will have precisely the effect which was
desired by the writer. In the course of this
diplomatic epistle, our Secretary of State
employs the following language
"I deem it proper to say that the offenses in
volved in tb'ese trials are "in their nature emi
nently political. It is the opinion of this Gov
ernment that sound policy coincides with the
best impulses of a benevolent nature, in recom
mending tenderness, amnesty, and forgiveness
in such case". Tbls suggestion is made with
liccdom and earnestness, because the same
opinions were proposed to us in our recent civil
war, by all tbe Governments and publicists of
lOuropo, and by none of them with greater frank
nets and kindness than by the Government aud
statesmen of Great Britain.",
In our opinion, this gentle reminder, added
to the plain promptings of expediency and
sound statesmanship, will ultimately result in
the pardon of Lynch and McMahon, as well
as of all the other Canadian raiders who can
substantiate their claims to protection as
American citizens. That they will be Imme
diately released we scarcely feel warranted
in predicting. A very lengthy piece of red
tape must first be wound and unwoumT, in
the slow and deliberate fashion for which
diplomatists have a world-wide reputation.
In the meantime, Colonel Lynch and Father
McMahon will have ample time for medita
tion in close quarters; and nothing,
we opine, is so conducive to a- clear
appreciation of tbe duties of men to
themselves and to their fellows, as this same
Absorbing occupation. When at last they are
again permitted to stand upon the soil of
their adopted country, we scarcely think they
will come among us breathing vengeance and
other dire calamities ; but rather with hearts
lull of thankfulness for their escape from
f trfcnuM5on and with heads full of wisdom,
. uhlch will sen ::nera ana ltie emans mm

' Dcatli 1 Hon. Villlani Wright, V'led
-tfatcs Senator from IJew JMflf
Tdk lion. WilL'am Wright, United Stages"
Senator from New Jersey, died yesterday, at
his residence m Newark, N. J., aged about
'seventy. He was a native of New York
State, but early settled at - Newark, where he
ioDg did a laro business as manufacturer
ot saddlery, etc., and made a generous compe
tence. In 1843 he was chosen V? Congress,
as a boltin? Whig candidate, heath.'? (DT tae
help ot the Democratb) the lion,' Wil
listn B. Kinney, the regular Whig can"
didae lie was re-elected in 1845 witho.'1
opposition. In 1847 h? was the Whig canJi-
date for Governor, and was beaten, by the
efforts and votes of such Whigs as resented
his boltlrg'lnto Congress In 1843. lie there
upon became alienated from his old Whig
affiliations, and was soon transformed Into a
pro-slavery Democrat of the Camden-Amboy
stripe, which he has ever since lemalned. In
1852-3 he was chosen a United States Sonator
to fill a vacancy ; he was rb-elected In 1855-17
and again In 1803, so that bis present term
would have expired, had he lived, on the. 4th
of March, 1809. His successor (until one
shall bo chosen at the next session of the
Legislature) Is to be appointed by Governor
Marcus L . Ward.
Mr. Wright was not a great statesman, but
he was a generous, public-spirited, self-made
man, who cherished no animosities, and never
allowed political differences to incite personal
alienation if ho culd help it. Now that bo
is gone, a thousand kindly and grateful asso
ciations will cluster around his memory.
1 he most prominent man to succeed Mr.
Wright In the Senate," by appolntmontf Gov
ernor Ward, seems to be Hon. Frederick T.
FrelinenuyBCn at present Attorney-General
of New Jersej , and staunch radical in poli
tics. In the new Legislature, to be elected
next Tuesday, we cannot' opine who will be
most popular or eligible; but we presume the
nomination of the Republicans will be either
Hon. F. T. Frelinghuysen or Hon. Marcus L.
Ward. Either of these gentlemen would
prove able representatives of the interests of
New Jersey, and worthy associates of Hon.
Alexander G. Cat ell.
AMUSEMENTS.
Aoadiht or Mumo Italian Oprra A
fashionable audience witnessed Lei Huguenots last
evening-, and every one present was gratified Willi
the performance In its entiioty,
Thta ereDinr (the last bnt one of tbe season) B'ccl'i
great comic opera, CriipiM e la Cmre, will be
presented, with Konooni, Bel ini, and Antonuool
in .their best rolei. Clara Louisa Kellogir and
Natali-Tcsta also appear in the cast. This opera
baa been tbe most auccosslul that has been riven,
and we have no doubt that the audience to-night
will prove that it is a permanentlr popular work.
To-morrow (Friday) even nz. last night of the
season, bencht of Mr. Max Maretzek, Li Sonnambula,
one act of Let Huguenott, and II Btrbiere d la
Seviqlia. These three will form an operalio enter
tainment the like of which hasn.vcr bom known
here. Daring the renins; Mr. Maretzeit's entire
troupe will appear. Seats mat be i-ocurod at Trutp
lei' during the day, aud at the Academy to night
and to-morrow.
Thk Gna at Imprkssabio. It is announcad that
Mr. Max Maretzek, the mnaitlg spirit of the
epleidid opera troupe now pen'ormlna at oil?
Aeadcmy of Musio, will be the reoipient ol a benefit
to.anorro v evening. Elsewhere we have called
attention to the very attractive enteriammenv
npon the occasion. We wish to recommend now.
Mr. Maretzek'personallr to our oltizens. He is un
doubtedly the most distinguished and sucoestul
impreuario living He has recently sustained Im
meoso pecuniaty losses in tho destruction by fire
ot the New York aoademy of Music, vet, by bis in
domitable porseverance and buainoas tact.be gath
ered together one ot the b st oporatio troupes that
ever visited our city. lie has given us a delectable
eca;on of I'alian opera, and he has fuitliiutly iul
fiilod every promise advanced. There has beon but
a single disappointment, and that was scarcely
noticeable. Owinp to the sudden illness ot Signor
Bellini, another opera was substituted for tbe ono
announced. Mr. Marotzek bat given us two of the
great' B' novelties of the peuod lor the first time in
Philadelphia, Crisjtino e la Vomare and L'Etoile du
Hard. Be has introduced two new Amerioan prime
donne, Wiss Amalia to. Hxuck and Signora Franoes
Natali-lesta; two new Italian prime donne, Siguora
Carmen I'och and Si?uorlna Aiitoiuotta lionconi; a
new tenor di groe'a Signor Baraeil; and last, but
notloast, the greatest living buffo, ISIgnor Giorgio
Konconi. ,
It is no wonder that we hav to speak of this
operatio season as a most suceesslul one. It has
developed our musical taste.
In viow oi all this we ask oar lovers of music, and
musical and artis ic enterprise, to tender Max
Maretzek, the Napoleon oi his profession, a substan
tial comi'liment to morrow night. Lot him see aud

New Cbkbnut Strkbt riiEATBi Mb. Jox
jKFFEnsoN as ' Eip Van Wimile." A very large
and fashionable aud ence assembled last evening to
witness Mr. Jefferson's rentree in his native oity. The
audience was a critical one, and was largely com
posed of persons who had seen Joe Jefferson at the
Cbesnut ("O.d Drury") years ago; and there were
many present who had witnessed tbe sterling ading
oi "Old Jeff," tho Philadelphia favorite, and fa'her
of the preieat distinguished oomedian. To please
such an audience would be a great triumph. To
raise in snob a one a furore of enthusiasm must be
tbe ultima thule of any artiste. This Joe Jefferson
sucoeeded In doing last evening.
First, we must say that Dion Bouoicault (now an
American citizen) has at last succeeded in producing
a perfect dramatization of Washington Irvine's
classical and ravishing legend of Kip Van Winkle.
Tats is inaeea an American play, based upon an
American subject, writton and dramatized by
Americans; and there aie but three others worthy of
this name that we know of. The play of Hip Van
Winkle, now running at tbe Ch-snut Street Theatre,
is an admirable one in every way. It is a faitbiul
transcript of tho original legend ; it is full ot oharao-
ter and dramalio power, and its equations are in.
teresting without beiug harib or orade. It it la
every way superior to the Kip Van Winkle played
by Mr. J. u. Hackett and Mr. Frank Dtesr.
Every scene in the play, as preseatod at the Cbes.
nut Street Theatre last night, was new, and painted
expressly ; and Mr. Smith, the scenlo artist, has
added to his reputat'on by the "studies" put for
ward in Hip Van Winkle, the m( en scene la the
second act was a masterioce. The delosive drop,
"Woods in a storm," was na'nral, and the "Sleepy
Hollow" was simply a magalflceut mytterj that
looted like reality Iteoll. The "VU'age of Falling
Water," in the last act, Is also worthy of njtloe, as
also are the four ' sett interiors."
Ot Mr. Joe Jefferson's aotlng ln the part of "Eip
Van w jnxie," we cin only say it was superb, com
plete, perfect. He transforms blmsslf completely
Into the good-natured, good-for nothing, besotted,
Iruthiul, and philosophical lump of Dutch stolidity
that is "jast the cheese." Wkat more can we say
in nraisn oi the man. who baa btea pronounoed the
most eminent actor in the world by Ltfndon eritioi,
who have sat In judgment npon sues' comedians as
Charles Mathews, Buokttons, Sobson, Quin,
Wigan, Kean. and othnsf Ur. Jefferson's recep
tion was an immoos affair. At tbe end of the play
be was called before tbe curtain, and la a neat
speech made bis most modest acknowledgments.
Everything pased off smoothly, and the enter
tainment was dellgbtful throughout. Hiss J oil
Orton was very good as "Dame Van Winkle;"
Mr. Maokay excellent as "Derrick Tan Oeekman,"
a was Mr. Miohael Weoli la the part of "Coekles
Messrs, FosWr, Daly, Jennings, and White played
tlxir rv'etaoorpUbly, and Miss Lizzie L'ooir was
re graeefal ftad spirited than nana! as tie I
"growti ep Meenie."
Next to Jo Jefferson's inimitable acting came
ttatof Kim Katie Baker and Miss Terry as petite
and Jtne "Hendrick Veddoi" and ' Meente Van
Winkle." They were admirable "little children'
end shared the applause of the great debutant.
