Nw Yok, Aug. 18.
Tuly ft few weeks mora will clapsi before the
Jtarioru, fregle returned from tbe walerlng
placel, will have selected for their opoolog dis
course the standard text ot the harvest beln?,
past, tbe aummer ended, and godless congri?
tiom not saved. And, Indeed, tbe regularity with
Which tbe churchei and the theatres are simul
taneously closed for tbe summer season, ani
reopened for tbe fall and winter, seeui fairly
to chtlloDRO a criticism by no means flattering
to the pious zeal of tbe preachers. Notwith
standing tbe amazing number ot churches which
Brooklyn possesses, tbe stayer-at-home would
be puzzled to find more than two or three of bis
favorite ones open. But tben tbo question arises,
have not the preachers as good a right ai the
player, or tbe merchants, tr tbe lawyer, or
the politicians, or the people, In any other
blanch of biHlnesp, to feel the need of
ft watering-place repose T And where is
the use of their remaining in tbo city
to preach when all the pew-payers
bare gone to the country 1 Depend upon it the
tpectacle of an empty house acts ns deprcss
lngly upon tho preacher who worship GoJ as
opon tbe player who worships mammon. Tbe
pulpit and the stage are the two eitromes which
meet in the capabilities they afford their mem
bers for passing manywct'ksof every year out
Of town; and if other professions offered tho
lime advantages, us many lawyer, physicians,
politicians, and business men would be foun 1
thronging tbe watering-placei between July
and October as there are at present players,
preachers, and military and naval heroes. lu
fact, such religion us eiUts in the fashionable
churches of tuU city, wbote congregations can
afford to send their pators to Europe to get rll
Ot bronchitis or whose ialors can aQord to
end themselves there, can be supported quite
as well at Long Branch, Saratoga, and Capo
Hay as in tbo consecrated houses that beautify
Broadway and Fifth avenue, or the hundred
brownstone purlieus of piety which render
Brooklyn so nominally religious a city. The
average religious interest here of wealthy con
gregations will sutler no diminution alter the
gaities of tbe waning watering-place season are
over; though I doubt whether this admission
lays much for tho magnitude of the average
religious Interest !
The Herald has lately got into ra amusing
quarrel with Dr. Swinburne, the Health Officer
at Quarantine. The alleged cause is Lr. Swia
burne's attempt to deprive the Hera'd function,
aries of tbe opportunity of publishing the ar
rivals at this port in advance of other news
papers, and the Uerad bas consequently created
a new department for its columns, entitled
'Quarantine Operations," whose object is to
sprinkle personal abuse opon Dr. Bwinburne's
devoted bead. Correspondence from Custom
House officers, shipowners, and 'longshoremen,
institutes certain inquiries which hint at things
not perfectly consistent with the Health Officer's
fair tame, and tbe ready-witted and malicious
cunning of tbe Herald U at no fault in picking
boles wLere its own failure presents such an
ample motive for it to do so. Its last statement
Is that if tbe captain of a vessel in Quarantine
Will consent to use Dr. Swinburne's tug, she can
get out at any time, but that if an outside boat
is desired, the chances of grttlng away are ex.
tensively slim. It is stated that the tugs are in
the employ of the officer, who is alleged to col
lect $40 on brigs, and $50 on barques, paying
out meanwhile only $20 for tbe one, and from
130 to $35 on the other. As all tbe world is
familiar, however, with the Herald's Ingenuous
aptitude for revenge, there is but one opinion as
to ho the ca-e stands between the salubrious
official at Quatautine, and the remoneless octo
genarian of the Jlira'd office, whose physical
and moral strabismus balance each other.
All the world is likewise acquainted with an
other feature of that baneful newspaper, healed
"Personals," to which the first prominenoe has,
for tbe list lew months, been given. Occupying
tbe upper left-hand cointr of the first page, it U
the first topic which moj-ts the reader's eye as
he unfolds the damp sheet previous to imbiblug
therefrom his mental matutinal bitter?. Hoy
murh of the scurf and scum ot swaggering aud
reckless city lile is ompressed into these dally
"stickfuls' I will not undertake to decide; but a
reader bas no occasion for more than an ordl
nary knowledge of the world to perceive thatan
excuse and opportunity for all grades ot venality
and meretriciounes3 are given, from the Invita
tion which presses a reply to certain initials to
a certain place, to the glaring advertisements
about "beautiful infants wanted to adopt out,1'
by a woman who is already too familiar to the
criminal courts.
During the regatta of the Columbia Rowing
Club on Saturday afternoon, an extraordinary
degree of excitement and comment was occa
sloned by the display of muscle by a fair and
youthful waterwoman. All these things go to
teach us, I suppose, that occasionally we encoun
ter one among the fair sex who lathe peer of
any of tbe male tex in any one walk of masculine
life. In this age we have female gymnastsi
female balloonists, female orators, female editors,
female lobbyists, lemale doctors, female prize
Jghters, f.-nialo champion skaters; but I believe
this is the first instance that Isew lorK has Deeu
treated with a female rower, a youag and beau
tiful one too. Tho display took place near the
Elvsian Fields, Hoboken, which were crowded
with ob-.erveis, as a eet off to tbe crowded decks
of the steamers that crowd the water. The
members and guests of the club on board the
steamer William Tittamer were particularly
fervent in tho applause thsy bestowed on the
distinguished rower, who succeeded In preserv
ing her incognito, und before vanisbiug lu a
mysterious and mermaid like manner, porformed
a number of aquatic feats with the utmost con
chalance aud ease.
rosin aster Kelly bas recently commenced a
reform lu the abandonment of the box delivery,
and the perfecting of the earner sybtem; and it
will not be long before we are the equal of Lou
don in this reepect. The boxes held at the post
office are wisely bclug given up, aid tho de
livery ol city letters is being intrusted to the
carriers. Only a fe weeks ago the various
box holders of tbe city were informed that nil
letters directed to box numbers would De ae
livercd promptly through the boxes, thut those
direcied according to street and nurabei would
be delivered by carriers, and that those directed
neither to the number of the box nor of cho
street, would be delivered through boxes, by
carriers, or at the general delivery window, as
should be found most convenient. The
number of mistakes which this iunova
linn avoided was so evident, that
In three weeks more thn two thousand box.
holders abandoned their boxes of their own
accord. The Irameuse growth of this city bas
rendered a post office reform necessary. No one
who bas not taken the trouble to investigate the
abjret would credit tbe number of letters
which, from being cn'v'ejs'y directed, fail or are
tardy in reaching their destination. Besides
the box system depcnJs for its success upon the
aptness and precision of the memories of tbe
post office clerks, cillcd "Sorters," who assort
tbe letter?. JIabyof the old tiroes In Ibe city,
conservative to tbo last degree, haf not yet
been persuaded into Postmaster Kelly's views,
and some years will perhaps eUpse before tin
new system will bo as perfect and as popular
beie as it is In London. But the time must
come, sooner or later, and the younger and
more go-abeaditlve firms arc giving the subject
all the attention it descrvos.
Another homicide Hnd another midnight riot
are tbe last street and laser beer saloon agonies
which have transpired. The homicide occurred
In a EBloon in East Fourteenth street, and was
consequent on the refusal ol tho bar-tender
tbero to supply a drunken German, named
Se ibert with beer. 8elberi,'s action, upon being
refu.-cd, was to stab his refuser In the neck, and
another man who interfered, in the forehead,
Tbe nabbed bar-teudcr, Strllwagou by name,
died ooii after the infliction of the wound, but
identified Seibert as his assailant. There has
been an unusual number of theso
lnger beer brawls lately. The other
aflair, the riot, occurred a little later In another
portion of the city, aud had it not been speedily
decked by tbe arrival of a platoon of police
would have given every promise of assuming
very eerlous proportions. Shots were fired,
missiles were thrown, heads were broken, aud
window-frames smashed in; but at length twoof
tbe ringleaders were arrested and locked up,
and this became the signal for the dispersion of
one of the ugltost street manifestations that has
dltturled ew York for many a year.
Tbe approaching fall and winter season of
amusements promises to be uu usually fertile
and charming. In the first place Mipleson,
Maretzek, and Bateman are each going to have
separate opera companies, Bateman, indeed,
two. Madame Titiens, who years ago expected
to come to this country, but whose engage
ment, like those of Ristorl's, about tbe same
time, was cancelled because of the uncertainty
felt in regard to her success, is going to resign
the operatic fields in London aud Paris,
awhile, to Pattl and NiUson, Pauline Lucca,
and lima de Murska, aud intends placing her
self under the leadership of Mr. Mtpleson.
Then Grau and Pike have pledged themselves to
produce first class ballets and operas bouffe, and
Mr. Brougham will produce his own plays (and
speeches) in the renovated little Fifth Avenue
Theatre. Edwin Booth's splendid theatre will
be opened with that "Legitimate" that Is heard
so much about and seen so little o', some time
in the fall. Barney Williams will produce new
Fenianisms at tho Broadway Theatre; after the
conclusion of Joe Jelfersou's engagement at the
Olympic a new pantomime will commence
auother two hundred-nights season there. Then
Wood's Museum will be opened two weeks from
the present time, with salutatory by Mr. Bar-
num, the Siamese Twins "previous to their
separation by the Paris College ot Surgeons," a
baby woman two years old, a giantess eight feet
higb, Circassian girls who speak English re
markably well and have the most lovely crimped
hair, a Scotch dwarf 24 inches high, a fat boy
five years old and 230 pounds in weight, another
dwarf named General Grant, aud an automaton
Leotird. Besides these phenomenal glo
ries, Maggie Mitchell Is to appear tbero
in sn entirely new play; Miss Lydia Thompson,
tbe English burlesque actresi, is to see whether
she can make us forget Mrs. John Wood; and
Busan Galtoo, an English opera bouffe, are to do
all tbe matinee business. What do you think of
all that? You shall see and hear them all If you
come on. it is even rumored mat UaDriel
Ravel and Leotard are to appear in conjunc
tion at this resuscitated Barnum's. Add to this
that Mrs. Scott fiiddons, grand-daughter of the
Sarah Slddons, has already arrived, and will
debut ou September 12, at Steinway Hall. That
Janauscbek is coming back, and another
German actress, whose name, among ull these
notabilities, I am too hair-brained to recollect,
1b shortly to make a raid on us; aad you will
perceive that the beaker of amusement wlil bo
sparkling to the brim with unwonted splendor.
May we all come out of it no worse than we
go in, is tbe prayer of An Dim,
UNIVERSAL PEACE UJIOS.
Wm our ewn Oerretpondenl.
Mystic, Conn., Aug. 14. 18C8.
Yesterday the beautiful grove of Bilai E. Bur
rows, of this place, on tbe banks of the Mystie
River, was thrown open for a meeting ot this
radical Peace society. The day was particularly
fii.e, und the people of tho villages round gath
ered in large numbers, bringing their baskets
of 'goodly lure," to which all were made wel
come. At ten o'clock the exercises commenced,
and continued until six o'clock in the evening.
Among thoEe present were Alfred H. Love, of
Philadelphia; Levi K. Joslln, of Providence;
Zobulon P. White, of Pawtucket; and Noah
Whipple, Jonathan Whipple, Julia Crouch, Rut-
Eel Wells, Daniel Waterous, Rev. S. B. Biiley,
Abel Tanner, and Colonel Hiram Applmnan, of
Mystic; ail of whom too.-c some part in the pro
ceedings.
Letters were read from distant friends from
California, Wisconsin, Murylund, and other
States, and the following resolutions wera pre-
tented, and after discussion adopted:
Wheifas. Peace in its potential and radical
meaning comprehends those conditions of life
whicnmakeit possmic anl deserved through
moial and intellectual forces and ignores deadly
lorce under uuy and all circuwutauces; arid
tcherfas, we are convinced thut in the growth
and experience of our lives it ia high time we
tliould recogui.e the grandest proclamations of
ull history: "luou snait not kin," -reaceou
earth and good-will to men," and "Lit U a
natural and iualieuubie right," therefore
txtso ted, That ns equal rigbis, Justice, free
dom, and conscience are peace agents, nothing
should be allowed to coutruvene their lulloat
and freest eienl-e and enjoymeut.
bttoived, Thut it cannot be rielit to do with a
com mission irotn bumau governments what it
is wrong to do without one. And while murder
is punished with bunging, and theft with impri
sonment, no human law can turn theie crimes
luto virtues under the irulte of war. and make
moral heroes out ol it. Aud the selection of
military men lor offices of honor and trust,
because ot their success in battle, is dangerous
to the erowlh of morul iiu'l mental nower. aud
destructive of the civil and (Jlmat-lUe progreas
of a nation.
Jirso cfd. That as tbe rluht to life is natural
and ii.ulienutde. and honesty ani truth should
not bo iuvululated. Congress should not have
power ' to declare war" wuicti legtliy.e murder
or "ynint letters of marque und nwrisal" which
legalizes tbe It and ful-.chooJ. It should uot bUYQ
power "to raise and support aT10,?", "nir,.T!(1$
and maintain a navy," ' call forth .,he, "iV'.
or "provide for organizing an array .na aiscl
pllning the militia," for such provision tve.a
prestige to military law, and make war 'norm,
nent. And as the people have delegated these
powers, we call upon an enlightened and Chris
tian professing people to rescind them.
Jiesoited. That in the construction orroeon.
struction of any State or nation, it is alike a
Christian duty and the wlet expediency to
employ only tbo principles of love, free will,
justice, aud mutual interest, aud to Ignore the
Bjsttra ol deadly force.
Betoived, Thatthe rights of conscience should
be so far reppected, that where persons Hre con
scientiously opposed to war, and have taken no
part in creating or prosecuting it, ttiey should
not be required to help pay the war debt, or be
taxed for war purposes.
Jit so ted, That as tbe people suffer the horrors
of battle, they alone should decide upon the
question of war, and us the working classes do
the fighting, sutler the torture, und pay the war
tax, we unite iu the elerati.m of labor, and
will excrtour irilucnco to place it above tbe low
BLd impoverishing system ot fighting.
liesolvfd. That war, th lather of lies ani tho
greatest crime In history, is responsible lor the
lollowing among its tuoun I sliam in so
called Christian nations: Fnt. They send men
as missionaries to the Feejce Islanders, who kill
men for purposes of dome-tic economy, an, I
kill ten-lold more at homo for purpoei of
polnical economy. Second. They organize
(ocicties to prevent cruelty to animals, aud
enact laws that they should be killed by expe
ditious processes, while killincr men by means
torturous in the extreme. Third. Imoroviug
the animal species by keeping troai the butcher
the bist specimens of animal', to perpetuate
their kind, while selecting thousands ot the
most penect ppecimens ot humau beings lor our
nian butcheries i. e., Generuls-aud leaving at
home the old, blind, lame, deaf, and generally
infirm, to procreate tbcir k'ud.
llrso'vid, That war beine ihc "ram of all vil
lainies," its practice at the Sou ill und at the
.North in disuniou or military reconstruction,
in America or in Europe. U the greatest of
crimes against m,tn, uirt it becomes the sell
evicent right of men to repudiate aud dis
obey all governments and rulers wheu they re
quire them to wound and kill mn.
Jteso vfd, That in the utatincniof the Indians
of this country we appeal for the strictest in
tegrity, jus.ice, aud humanity, on the part ol
the Government, being sa'.istied that taey are
in insurrection against wrong and outrage,
and it becomes uk to treat them as human
beings, and open tbe way for tbe recognition of
Incnds and citizens,
HesolVfd, That the effort making in this and
other counries to estublith an International
Court of Nations, in which all difficulties may
bf amicably settled, ard the 'blind and brutal
arbitrament of the sworJ" forever renounced,
meets our hearly approval, ami we shsJl labor
to bring it about by our individual lives, and
extend its influence to our community, State,
and nation.
Jiesolved, That we cinnot but be disappointed
that the so-called "ministers of the Go-pel" do
not give the cause of tadical peace their active
and practical co-operation, aud we appeal to
tbem tbat if the profession iu the Ctiurch is
good, it is better in practice, and the ciiuseof
conveision and salvation must como from a
living and lite-giving faith, of action in the
every day walks of lite.
A loud, hearty vote adopted the-e resolutions.
A prajcr was offered, funds collected, pamphlets
distributed, and then the young ladies united in
several appropriate songs and hvmns, and the
Convention adjourned to meet at Vincland, N.
J., about September the 13'b.
