NEW YORKISMS.
From our own Correspondent.
Niw York, An?. 4.
Life In lodging! was never more brilliant!
exempli fled than It was on Sunday evening, or
lather at from 1 to 2 o'clock yesterday morning,
In one of the quietest aud easiest of the Places"
that abonnd not far from either Broadway or
Fifth avenue. The street, Belfatr Place byname,
is only thiee blocks la length, and of an exceed
ingly sombre and respectable obaractei, not
rendered unlike what I believe Is called Olrard
place, or Glrard row, In Philadelphia. Almost
every other house Is a boarding-house, or else
baa "Furnished Apartments, without Board,'
stuck within the windows or beneath the bell
handle.
Staid and heavy people give the tone to Belfalr
Place, and have Riven tone to it for several
lustres. Bachelors In declining years, unmar
ried clergymen, literary men of medium rate,
Bteady-goiug bankers who have no great pen
chant lor trained racers or risky speculations,
wealthy and spotless widows, rearing young
eons and belonging to good old lamllies, child
less husbands and wives who have grown old
together, and, alter the one disappointment of
their lives, learned to care vory little for plea.
cures outside the solidly magnificent suite of
rooms which constitute their homo thone are
the kind of people who for many a year have con
ferred infinite respectability upon Belfair Place
The sidewalks are ot broad clean flag-stone
the house?, built all of one pattern, are luvarla
Wy of brick ; the pavement one of the few tha
fire laid with cobble stones is intersticel wltu
tufts of grass; no stage or car starts echoo
there; and the private carriages that stop a
solemn doors are driven by serious-looking
grooms. Those who let rooms inevitably belon?
to gentee! families, and with regard to those who
rent them, the "best of recommendations" ar
required. In fact, it is a street scandal might
roam through, tr?ing to snutf up tit-bits in, in
Tain. The moral gloom of the place forbids you
o believe that crim. con. and all the spicier
frailties of human nature could ever enter there!
but perhaps a secret murder may have been
slowly consummated in one of tno.e dim ram
bling rooms, and tho three dull brick-and
browustone blocks are in a transition state
which will lead them, in alter years, to bo
Spoken of as haunted. ,
Imagine, then, the moral thunder-shock
which ha9 just been given to that grim neigh
borhood by the e' 'a irassvnunl which commenced
one hour alter last Sunday miduight. What
Los since come to light reveals that several
months ago a fair-faced and flaxen-haired feuiste'
tonisle, one ol the best of the class of Hew York
Bohemians, managud by hii perfect manners
and quiet insinuating mo de of speech (for he
gave no references) to obtain a front room on
the third or nppcrmoat story of one of the most
respectable of those very respectable houbes.
Equally as insinuating and pleasant man
neied, however (for she likewise gave
no references), must have been the
young married lady who a few day
previously had taken tho back room imme'
diately opposite, these two rooms being the
only ones on the uppermost floor. Three
months passed on. Tho feui Uteonisie wrote
Lard all day, and either visited, or had friends,
young or old, to see him of evenings. The
young married lady sat in her room and sewed
or sang, and was never seen to receive any
visitor, male or female, made no acquaintances
In the house, dressed with plain richness, and
paid her landlady punctually one month in
Advance. During the hot June days the heat
In these rooms next the roof became intoler
able. Be loft his door halt open, and she heard
lis quill scratch while he rote. She left her
door half open, and he heard her singing
the "Diles fut," and sometimes caught
a glimpse of a white hand winging
its way like a carrier-pigeon across
some filmy blue fabric like a sky. One day she
"was taken ill, apd continued 60 for a week,
With no one to attend her but the doctor, the
servants, and the landlady, whose attentions
were extremely precarious. The feuilletonists
With a very natural and gentlemanly interest,
inquired after her from day to day, and when
she grew convalescent, learned from the ser
vants that she was sadly in need of some ligh
reading, all the books she had with her being
of a serious and devotional turn. He sent her
in, with his compliments, a package of the
latest magazines and melodies. Perhxps there
were some poems. It must have been eo, for a
few days after, he overheard her speaking to
the lady of the house of the very graceful power -t
as a story writer and poet, of the young
man who occupied the opposite room. This
unmeant, unconscious flattery was like sweet
tasted lightning to him. Enough. They met;
they looked; they loved. I have no sequel to
relate which any one need blaeh to read either
In secret or aloud. I know that the general
Character ascribed to feuiiietonistes, or to any
that bear about them the slightest Bohemian
aroma, is not that of Intense morality; and that
young married ladies, lodging alone, taking
their meals out, and receiving no visitors, are
not cited by maternal heads of families as ex
amples of the most shining virtues. Yet that
blessed exception which Is tho proof of so many
accursed rules, was present in this cae, aud
nothing passed between this lonely young man
and lonely young woman but what good people
everywhere would declare no sin. Of course
It was imprudent for them to
continue so close together when he
was burning with all the unrestrainablllty or
first love, and when her husband was living, tor
tt was so. Four yeors ago she had married, and
for four years she had endured from her hus
band all the ill-treatment including Wows,
pennllessness, foul languaue, and nunoless in
sultwhich it is in the power of a whisky-maddened
brute to confer. At length resolving to
leave him, she prepared for it by secretly pawn
ing her watch and jewels and sailing her most
costly dresses, the only articles which In his
most frenzied moments ehohai had the pluck
to keep out of his reach under lock and key
With this very respectable sum obtained, she
secretly left the home he had male wretched
for her, and took that modest room In Belfulr
Place, under an assumed name, mere sue
lved in an humble manner, partly by giving
music lessons out, and partly by doing work for
ne or two oi the large dres-goods houses, who
ad been friends of her family, and to whom
he frankly told the story of her wrongs. All
bis he frankly told to the feuWeonisle, whose
om dep'ume, if not widely known, would at
east. I think, be roeonnized In this city. But
e is greater as a man than he ever will be as a
liter, fur he kepi his passion for her pure, aal
crcafter, whenever they met, it was la tke
large, ploomy parlors down stairs, where a
dozen others were sitting.
At the cheerful hour of 1 o'clock yesterday
morning, however, the threo blacks of Belfai
Place were startled by a violent bell-ringing
at the bouso I have indicated, and the stento
lian voice f a man roaring at the top of his
strength "I want my wife I I want my wife 1 1
I want my wife Christine 1 1 1" Christine being
the name of the young married lady occupying
the third floor back. At that hour all the
neighborhood was in a state of dignified reposo,
such as no other neighborhood was aver
wrapped In upon earth; but the cries were eo
resounding, and the bell-ringing so violent, that
pretty soon lights were seen quivering from
beneath green-glooming shades, and decorously
frilled night-caps and night-gowns peered
through the infinitesimal loop-holes of mosquito,
nets. A din glimmering that somethlug was
wrong at last began to pervade the torpid
tranquility of the house before whose portal all
this hubbub was takiug placo. In the third
6tory, more particularly, there was a very per
ceptible confusion. Lights danced about, doors
were open and shut, whispered questions and
replies were interchanged. "Save mo I hide
met it Is my husband I" was the burden of tho
principal words overheard. But even while they
were being utteied the hall door had been
opened by one of the frightened servants, and
the heavy, uncertain treai of a strong maa in
liquor was heard bungling through the halls.
It came nearer and nearer; it came up tho
narrow flight of steps that led to the topmost
story, dimly lit by a solitnry gas-burner. Be
ncath this stood a group of two, the stent of
which caused the drunken wretch to niako a
rush forward with au oath and other unrepeata
ble language. In doing so be fell, his temple
striking a sharp hook projecting two iLchcs
from the wainscoting. Tho call that entered
the temple of Sisera did no surer work, and tho
slow-frlckling blood that oozed in thin channels
along the floor announced to the terror-trembling
Christine that her husband was dead, the
horror of her life over, and she free to wed whom
she chose. The wretched man will be buried
to-morrow. The feui'.leloniste Is embalming the
memory of these events to make use of in a
future story, and the amiable and virtuous
Christine has repaired to the house of a friend,
there to don befitting weeds, and observe a de.
cent year's mourning. At the end of that year
there will be a wedding; a hard-working news,
paperman, that I wot ot, will be made happy,
although, I think, after the honeymoon is over,
the new couple will prefer settling down in a
neighborhood remote from Belfair Place.
But, perhaps, 1 dwell too long upon an Inci
dent which, although it has not yet fouud its
way into any of the newspapers here, has been
the talk ot hundreds of people, and neatly illus
trates some of the trngico-romantic possibilities
of lile in New York lodgines.
Hattie Bell Is the pretty name of a pretty
girl fifteen years old, who has been living with
her father on one of the East river canal boats,
( n one of the adjoining boats lived a woman
Itary Ann Bard well by name. One eveuing re
cently, the woman Bard well, who appears to
have for some time cherished a mysterious spito
against her victim, enticed the young girl to a
lonelj spot, and there induced her to take an
appnrently innocuous drink, but which almost
iLstantly reduced her to a state of insensibility.
Whilst in this forlorn condition, the woman
Bsrdwell is charged with having stripped the
young girl of every article of clothing, and then
to have left her to her fate. Fortunately, and
surprisingly, considering tho place where this
outrage "was perpetrated, no worse fate befel
the harmless little Hattie than that of being
found by some Samaritan-hearted men, who
called a physician and assisted him to restore
her to contoiousness. The young girl, with
perplexed emotions of distress and shame, gave
as distinct an account as she was able of all that
she remembered. The woman Bardwcll was
immediately arrested, and arraigned before
Justice Hogan, of the Ionics, who referred the
matter to the Coroner, who deciding that the
eate did not come within his jurisdiction, said
so to the officers, who handed her over to the
authorities of the New Street Police Station,
who locked her p there, and bo finished the
official rigmarole. Meanwhile she keeps mum
and refusss to say a word that may ehed light
upon the reasons for the administration of the
diug. Had the perpetrator been a man.no
explanation would be needed; and surely Mary'
notion could not be only that of obtaining a suit
of clothes ol but little worth.
Since murder possesses the quality of making
the blood run cold, the sufferers from heat must
have found at least a little alleviation in the
recent police columns of the morning papers
here. Another case of probable murder was
fished up on Sunday morning, out of a sunken
boat in the Morris Canal, at the foot of Bergen
street, Jersey City. At 6 oxlock, on Saturday
night, Carson Sethman, a man of thirty-five,
employed in a sugar-house in that vicinity, re
ceived his wages in common with the rest of the
employes. How be spent the rest of the evening
is not precisely known, but towards midnight
he was seen in tho liquor-saloon of a man named
Adaline. This Is the last that is certainly
known of him nntil he was found, at fl
o'clock on Sunday morning, lying in
the sunken boat with his face down,
and a scalp wound six Inches long behind
the left ear. The Inquest Is to be continued this
morning, but all the testimony as yet elicited is
that a watchmon who guards a coal-yard near
the sugar-house heard the cry of "Help I help!
help 1" at one o'slock on Sunday morulng, aud
that one hour after a woman residing near, saw
two men striking another niau they held be
tween them, aud heard them agree to "fix him
off," as they drugged blm towards tho sugar
house, that overlooks the canal. The fact of
the murder being committed within a few hours
of Sethman's receiving his pay, renders it little
doubtful that It was done for anything ehe than
the money.
Shall I apologize for the mention or Mr.
Cruelty-to-Auimala Bcreh again? No; for he
ha9 been making himself absurd by the publl
cation of one of the most lidlculous letter
that ever emanated from the pen of man. One
moment bo seems to approve of horseflesh-
eating; another he declares that the largest
share of the moral and physical diseases which
affect mankiud is due to the slaughtering and
devouring of animals; anon he avows, with the
quaintest candor, that he eats meat from habit,
but that the slightest appearance of blood (such
as in underdone beefsteak) shocks his sensibili
ties, and causes his stomach to revolt. Add to
this that he owns to having tolerated a poor
Arab's running behind his Lorse a distance of
i twtlYa miles, and tho question may well be
nked whether Mr. Bergh does or does not in
elude the human family ("cheerful Arabs"
among the rest) in the list of animals I
In Brooklyn during the month of July more
than one hundred children, or nearly four a
day, were lost and returned to their parents by
the police. Onght not this to remind us that
while we are imitating many of the good Insti
tutions of Paris, we have as yet failed to Imitate
her admirable institution of the creche, or home
for the little ones, where parents, at a small ex
pense, leave tbelr children at morning and
return for them at night f . naif the accidents
that happen to children arise while their parents
ate away, and the little. ones are confided to
careless and incompetent hands. There has
indeed been, for a long timo, a movement on
foot for some such establishment here; but the
foot bos been a very lame one, pnd couse
quently but little or nothing has been done.
You will have noticed that for some week
past great pains have been taken to assure the
public that the ligature uniting the Siamese
twins Is shortly to bo cut by somebody of the
French College of Surgeons. I observe, though,
that before that Interesting operation is per
formed, they intend giving a season of recep
tions in the United States. The assiduity with
which the announcements are made calls to
mind the "farewell-forevers" which certain
artistes announce towards the close ot a particu
laily remunerative season. Such valedictories
in-advance are always cheerful, because
we feel morally certain the star will never take
leave of the public until tho public takes leave
of him; but will return from season to season as
long as a manager can bo found to give an en
gagement. Is it not therefore conjecturable
that when thee amiable twins present them
selves at the French College of Surgeons, it wil
be found impossible to sever them without the
aboolute certainty of death to both? At any
rate they will soon figure at Wood's Museum
here (late Banvard's Opera House), which Miss
Maggie Mitchell is to open on the 31st.
