The Democrats, with him ns the Republican

tlo not actually "come down" at once, like the

the discharge of the rifle of Captain Scott.

General Grant In New York.
At the recent Republican Senatorial Conven
tion of Chemuupr, Schuyler and Steuben coun
ties, the following resolution was adopted:
Xesotvfd, That our trut In peace, as it did in
war, centres in the wisdom and patriotism of
Ulypsos S. Grant, under whose lead, in 18C8,
it grander army than he ever, marshalled
before will rival with the ballot the wonder
iul achievements of the bullet which at once
made bis name illustrious and the Re
public a nation. The Uniou which his valor
redeemed will crown him with its highest
lionors, and the suffrages by which the great act
shall be done will come in equal numbers from
the North and the Soulh, from too East and the
West. The whole country in all its borders will
unite in the great acclaim, and then shall thft
final battle be fought and won, which will
bring peace, prosperity, and enduring stability
to the free and reunited Stales ot America.
TIIE PRIZE-RING.
Tb( Ryall and Allen Contemplated
Blatcn A Gathering of the Sports.
The rumored match between Allen and Ryall,
the two English pugilists who have arrived in
this country, has as yet fuiled to become a cer
tainty, owing to Allen failing to put in an ap
Iearauce. it was understood that he had ar
rived from Baltimore on Saturday, aud would,
no doubt, be on hand during the evening, at
Charley Diruoncl'e, where Ryall agreed to meet
Ryall, with a large number of his friends, was
promptly on hand, and waited until midnight,
tout Mr. Allen did not appear. A great deal of
Interest was manile&ted, the qualifications ot
both men being pretty well canvassed. Through
out the evening various bets were offered, the
odds being somewhat on Ryall, but were not
taken. It was understood at a late hour that
Mr. Allen would be forthcoming this (Monday)
morning, and that he proposed to covet the first
deposit put up by Ryall, $250, after which he
will meet Mr. Ryall and draw up articles of
agreement. Should the tight take place it will
foe the first time two noted pugilists of the Eng
lish ring ever fought in this country.
There is a vmt diilerence in the size of these
linen, Ryall being large boned, very broad across
tbe shoulders, with a rather heavy corporation,
tmd weighing about two hundred and thirty
pounds, lie IS fully Kix foot in hoictht, ntbn
ensy, but very reliable with the gloves. Allen
is about five feet ten inches in height, weighs
one hundred and eighty pounds, is well pro
portioned, and when stripped, appears to be a
perfect model of an English fighter. Ho is a
scientific boxer, and is no easy man to gel away
with. The contemplated tight will evidently
create as much interest in England as in this
country. A. Y. Herald.

Jjondon (Sept. 23) Our. of the Boston Advertiser.
The Roman Catholic party here are indus
triously circulating a report that Mr. II. W.
Longfellow has entered the Roman Church.
Their authority for the statement Is not easily
gat at.
They point me to the following letter from the
poet to a w ell-known zealot of Rome. Mr. D. P.

that they are unable to conceive of a sympathy

THE EN GL 1SJI S TA GE.
Ilfe Blilnd the Scenes.
Sketches of the idiiRnlar llfo whic h is led be
bind the ecnes of the theatre have always
possessed a peculiar interest to all who care
anything about theatrical matters, it Is a world
by Itself, with Us own peculiar customs aud
regulation!), for, ultra Rjhcminn as it may seem,
it is as subject to ltd own laws as the fashiona
ble or the religious world. What some of these
regulations and cui-toms are we find Interest
ingly tet forth in a recent article la CtamWs'
Journal, which is accurate so far as regards the
fnglish stage. There ( lie newly engaged actor
is obliged to sign rfsct of "rules," of which tho
following may nord nn example:
"1. Every member of the company required
to af-eiRt in the national anthem: also to give
their services for the music of Micheih, mas
querade and dirge of llomeo and Juliet, music
ot fizarro, etc. 2. Teu minutes allowed for
change of drcs. 3. Ten minutes' grace allowed
for diflerence of clocks, for the hrst rehearsal
only. 4. No performer allowed in front of the
house betore or alter performing the same
evenins. 5. Any member of the company going
on ti c stage, either at rehearsal or at night, in
a state of intoxication, to forfeit one week's
salary, or to receive immediate dismissal at the
option of the manager. 6. For addressing tho
audience without the sanction of the manage
ment, to forfeit Ave shillings, tin some theatres
this is a guinea forfeit. 7. For using bad lan
guage, or being guilty of violent conduct, one
guinea. 8. For neglecting stage business, as
arranged by the Mage-manager at rehearsal, live
shillings. 9. For being ab-eut at rehearsal
for the first eccuc, one shilling; for every suc
ceeding scene, sixpence. 10. For crossing the
stage duiiug pertormnnce, five shillings. 11,
For leud 6( i nking at tho wings and entrances
during business, two shillings. 12. Per being
imperfect at night, Ruilicient time having been
allowed for study, five shillings. 13. For re
fusirg to play any part, such character being in
accordance with the terms of engagement, one
guinea. 14. For keeping the stage waiting,
two-and-sixf euce. 15. For detaining prouipt
bcok beyond the lime arranged by stage
monager, two shillings. 6. On benefit occa
sions, pieces selected to be submitted for the
Approval ot the management before issuing bills
or announcements."
In addition to these reasonable rules, there are
otheisofa more stringent aud arbitrary cha
racter. One is riven w hicb. must have been in
vented by a wag: "Rule twelve Actors are re
quested not to grumble and stay, but to grumble
and go." This must be regarded as a downright
suspension of the constitutional privileges of
petition and complaint of grievances, but was
doubtless only aimed at the chronic grumblers
who infest every profession.
As to the Whrdrobe, in the English provincial
theatres the ladies bave to find everything for
themselves; gentlemen are only required to
have modem dresses ot their own, and pro
pertiesnamely boots, tights, hats, feathers,
wigs, canes, swords, buckles, etc. though
many, who are particular as to fit, prefer diet
ing themselves, even when the stock wardrobe
is large and various.
On this subject of dres the Journal has some
advice that might be applicable in this country.
It says:
DKKSS.
"Many ladies and gentlemen who ought to
know better, if they can but attire themselves to
their satisfaction, throw all other considerations
into the background a lamentable mistake
that, as although dress has a certain iulluenco
with the British public, it never-yet was known
to drag au actor through a part; aud it must be
extremely galling to a bud aud imperfect per
former to have a warm reception given him en
tuely on that score, as it sometimes happens,
and to hear the gods shout heartily : 'Bray vo
tho dress!' One should try to bit the happv
maillutn in tUli roipwl, tud tu pity CI UU X'C'lirCl
to propriety of costume, without neglecting
other essentials. The Blyle aud cut of a stage
garment are of more consequence than the
quality or nature of the material of which it is
composed, and the correct dress of the period
certainly cubance the beauty of the play: yet
in the School for Scandal and other elegant
comedies of the same dato tho jfontleuien gene
rally sport moustaches; and a 'star' appears in
Guy Manntrinq without previously shaving olf
his whiskers aud imperial. But carelessness in
these and other such instances is not half so
censurable as the downright ignorance that is
occasionally to be met with in the profession."
We doubt if the pleasaut picture the Journal
draws of the green-room banquets of former
times could have been truthfully sketched on
this side of the Atlantic. It says:
GREEN-ROOM BANQUETS.
"Only a few years since, three or four of the
principal towns in a county formed a pleasant
circuit. Take, for instance, York, Leeds, and
Hull, where salaries were good aud certain all
the year round, save in Papsion week, when the
theatres were closed. Different managers now
take these establishment?, and open them only
in the winter. When tho wr!J?r ot this paper
was a member of the troupe acting !u that cir
cuit, there were many comforts attached to the
situation that have since been abolished; there
were dressers and call boy, and properties sup
posed to be eatahje and drinkable were fit to be
allowed. I Lavs sat down to an excellent
6V.J"-r m High Life Bdom Stairs: as 'Oliver
Twist' I have enjoyed my ham-sandwiches and
bottled porter; as 'Paul,' in the Wandering
Hoys, bave partaken of a savory veal-pie; as a
fairy at the christening feast of a beautiful prin
cess (afterwards the 'Meeping Beauty in the
Wood') bave eaten heartily (pheasant, but not
tion. whereat figured fowls, "tongue, tartlets.
jellies, ices, tipsy-cake, choice fruits, and cham
pagne. This spread was a treat given by ine
manager on his birthday, and, ol course, was
not 'a thing ot custom.' 'Those days are gone, .
Floranthe.' More recently 1 have, in the same
establishments, made one of the party at horrid
'Barmecide' bauquets, where pasteboard fruits,
wooden cakes, bams of calico, with sawdust
stulhtg, aud decautersof cold tea, furnished a
lepast non-edible and non-potable." f5J
Since these halcyon days for travelling actors
there has .been a return to more economical
management, if we may believe the following:
ECONOMY,
"The visitors in Matt Life Jkloxo Stoirshwc,
ot late, been regurded with "fowls cut by grimy
bauds out of a small loaf, and browned at the
fire; poor 'Work'us' now teuds ou stale bread,
aud pretends to drink out of an empty stone
bottle; Paul aud his brother are treated to a pie
dish, with a cover of brown paper glued ou to
the edge, aud painted to resemble a rich crust:
Mrs. Hector Sternhold makes breakfast with a
'ha'p'orth of bread,' cut thin, aud sweetens tho
cold, weak tea with small lumps of turnip; and
Bdphegors soup is a sienaer aecociion oi couce,
without milk and stiear. As for birthdays,
managers do not seem to have any. I suppose
people never are coi. tented, for, at the very
time of w hich 1 speak as ueiug so agreeuuie,
ac'ors who had been previously in the circuit
were prone to pull lopg luces, shuke their heads,
and grumble at the change for the worse that
had taken place since 'Old Ups" time, when
theie wt-B a cepjist employed by the manage
ment to write out all parts in new pieces; when
a porruquter attended every evening to dress
the ladies' and pm'lcmen's hair, or wigs, or
perfume their hai.dk-, chiefs; when there was
an allowance ol one shilling made for a 'clean
shirt' part-that i-, wheio the coat bus to be
taken ott on the stage; when a quart ot ale and
a bonus of live shillings were given to any
person trading the part wherein the face had
to be blackened or colored; and when the

ttonialuipg, the tyro, IX careful, may coulort
himself with the hope of receiving a flattering
tribute io tho shape of cup, or watch, or ring,
since even the lowest actors are not beneath
urh acknowledement of their merit, as witness
this paragraph in a newspaper of recent date:
'Presentation to a Donkey. On Monday last,
Mr. W. II. Pavne, the pantomlraist, presented to
the fore and hind legs of his donkey two hand
pome silver medals for their strict attention to
his training and instruction. The medals were
manufac tured by Messrs. Loewenstark & Sons,
Masonic jewellers, of Garriek street, and bore
the lollowing inscription: 'Presented by W. II.
Payne, of the Theatre Royal, Covcnt Garden, to
Master William Allcroft and Master John Map
stone, in remembrance of his donkev, Ali Baba,
lbCO and 18G7.' They were received by the legs
with kicks ol delight and rapture."
Sixty-tiikee Persons Dkowned. A terrible
accident recently occurred in Russia, at Kine
schma, government district of Kostrowna.
Aflbut a Lundred persons of both sexes were
returning from the fair at the village, and en
tered the ferry boat to cross the Volga. The
vessel was unusually crowded, and w hen near
the opposite shore the ferryman demanded
payment of the fares. The crowd of passen
gers was in consequence thrown into a state of
motion and the boat capsized. Sixty-three
persons were drowned.
Illicit Distillation in England and Scot
land. In the seven years there were
four Lundred and sixty-one convictions in
Kngland and sixty-four in Scotland for illicit
distillation of spirits from molasses, grain, or
otLer materials, but it does not appear that
any of them were for distillation of spirits
from foreign wine. The LigLest conviction in
Kngland was for 550, but in Scotland there
were convictions forX2',0t, X'3()00, and 4000.
Amusements in Paris. The total receipts
from the theatres, dancing-rooms, concerts,
and other places of public amusement in Paris
in the month of August amounted to 2,240,
oOUf. (tf 14:),000), showing a decrease of 43,5!l0f.
on the previous month. During the five
months that tLe exhibition Las been opened,
tLe returns for tLe theatres alone Lave ex
ceeded tLose of the corresponding period of
last year by 2,521,239f.
Cattle Crossing Mont Cenib. Italy con
tinues to supply large quantities of cattle to
France. Letters from Dijon report that herds
of one Lundred, one Lundred and fifty, and
even two Lnndred oxen are constantly passing
throngL tLat town from Lombardy on tbeir
way to Paris. TLe animals cross Mont Cenis
on foot as far as San MicLel, where tLey are
placed in cattle trucks on the railway.
Seha stoi'ol. TLe English burial grounds
around Sebastopol extend over forty miles of
country, and are one Lundred and forty in
number, but are falling into decay. TLe
graveyards are said to be so overrun with
weeds and brambles tLat many tombs are no
longer visible. They are under tLe superin
tendence of tLe British Consul at KertcL.
The Value of Nettles. Sow and plant net
tles, says M. Xavier Garenne, and all the
lands in the south and tLe wastes in the other
parts of France will be converted into green
and profitable fields. He wonders tLat tLe
world is so slow to learn the great economic
value of tLis robust plant, wbich will grow
everywLere.
Births in London. In 1SG5 tLere were
10o',803 births in London, an increase of 4000
over the previous year. In 1852 the whole
number was 81,250.
