MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC.
"Font riny" mt the ChMnat.
IWore tbe novel of "Foal Play" wti com
pleted, Messrs. Bouoicault and Reade dissolved
their literary partnership, and eaoh of them
was anxlons to take advantage for hi own
pecuniary benefit of the popular Interest which
bad been exolted about the story, by Betting
bis own partloular dramatisation or it on the
stage in advance of his late co-laborer. In this
manner we ha ve two rival dramas of Foul Piny,
eaoh of whloh la set forth as the only true and
genuine artlole by one of the authors of the
lory. Mr. Charles Reade's version was brought
out at the Walnnt some weeks ago, and last
. night at the CceBnut we had an opportunity to
make a comparison of Its merits with Bouol
oault's play. It Is of oourse not to be expected
that first-rate dramas can be produoed
In the manner these were, even If suoh
a thing as a really good dramatization of a
novel Is a possibility, which onr experience of
at ch efforts almost forbids ns to admit. Weak
dialogue and weak characterization, however,
may sometimes be redeemed by a few strong
and really dramatics situations, by effeotlve
acting, and especially by good scene palming
and stage earpenlery. Tbls was the case with
Reade's play, wLlib was brought out at the
Walnut: It gave the main points of the story In
a tolerably understandable style, the different
characters were very fairly represented, and
the piece was pat npon the stage In excellent
style. Of the two plays we think that Reade's
Is the best, Independently of any extraneous
advantages whloh It possessed In representa
tion. It Is a drama of action, whereas Bond
cault's version is mainly narrative, especially
in the early scenes. The actors at the Walnnt
therefore, had a great advantage over
those at the Chesnut, Inasmuch as
they were able to bring np some
of the exciting scenes and lnoldents of the
novel bodily before the eye, Instead of being
Obliged to relate them at second hand. BouoU
cault has not confined himself as closely to the
Btory as Reade, and he has exercised what we
consider a perfectly justifiable license on the
part of a dramatist, In departing from his ori
ginal when he Imagines that the play will be
Improved by so doing. Bat, anfortnnately(
Bouoloaull's changes are not always Improve.
xnents.Jrod bis stage version of the novella, as
a whole, the least meritorious of the two. The
trongly-drawn and original character of
."Helen Rolleston" he has, with a singular want
of tact, reduced to the complexion of a namby
pamby school-glil sort of a miss, without the
lightest in llvldualltj ; and his treatment of the
Other characters has not been much better. In
one or two points we think that be Improves
on Reade. The scene where "Wylle" thrusts
his money through the wall Into "Nancy
House's" bouse was utterly meaningless
at the Walnut, but Bouoicault has
arranged It ao that It Is In some degree
effeotlve. His Idea of making "Robert Pen
told," In the disguise of a detective, become the
main Instrument for the exposure of the guilt
of "Arthur Wardlaw" and "Wylle" la also a
good one In aome respects, and the soene where
'Wylle," after being locked up In the cellar
With the gold. Is confronted by 'Tenfold," who
baa been biding behind the boxes listening to
tbe conference of the conspirators, la a more
Startling situation than any in Reads', play.
Bo muoh for the respective merits of the rival
C am as.
Tbe company now performing Foul' Play at
the Chesnut are scarcely competent to make It
appear any stronger than It really Is. The male
aotors In particular are too boisterous and vio
lent, and It is an absurdity that Buch a confer
ence as tUU of "Wyile" and "Arthur
.Wardlaw," In the first aot, where the
Bailor relates how he bas obeyed the
orders of bis master In scuttling the Prosre
plne .should be carried on In the loud
tone of voloe assumed by Messrs. Wallace and
Burnett. Mr. Harklns, who assumes the part
Of "Robert Penfold," Is also too noisy, especially
In the early scenes, and his performance does
not oome up to that of Mr. Waloot. Mr. War
wick makes a better representative of "Arthur
Wardlaw" than the gentleman wko assumed
that character at the Walnut, but his acting
would also be Improved by a little more mode
ration. Tbe version of Foul Play at present under
consideration baa beon announced as an aotlng
rather than a scenic play, and a comparison
between tbe soenery at the Walnut and the
Chesnut la, therefore, scarcely fair. We may
state, however, that the desert island Is repre
tented by two pieces of scenery which are quite
pretty, although they fall short of being eqna
to tbe con espondlng scenes at the Walnut, with
the well managed effect of the waves breaking
npon tbe shore.
Tbe City Amusements.
At thx Walnut Mrs. Lander will appear
this even it g as "Marie Antoinette," In Reed's
tragedy.
At the Aboh Lotta will appear as "Little
Nell" and the "Marchioness" this evening.
. ATTHbCheskct Bonoicault's drama of Foul
flay will be performed.
At the American there will be an attractive
miscellaneous entertainment.
- At Hoolbt's Opba Houses very varied and
entertaining programme will be presented tbl

Winter Bonnets in Philadelphia.
' The opening days of October were dieting
gnished from tbe other bright days of autumn
by tbe brilliant concourse of "Boys In Blue"
who bad battled so valiantly for our honor and
our homes. Warm was the weloome extended
by tbe patriotic) citizens of Philadelphia, and
the genial Ootober skies reflected the warmth
of beart and band in hospitable greeting. To
the ladles these days were doubly marked in
the calender as being the established opening
o' winter not the winter of the almanao, or
ti e dread tempest-governed months over whloh
Boreas rtlgns supreme, but tbe winter of tbe
milliner. Snpty show-cases and darkened
windows bad lor days excited attention and
aroused expectation, for, reversing the laws of
nature, tbe followers of this artlstlo oraft retire
Jnto a species of chrysalis statedurlng the bright
beat of September, to burst into butterfly brll
llanoy with the cooler weather of tbe following
month. Suddenly, and with one aooord.tnU
seemicg lethargy changes into activity and ex
citement, and from the imposing "establish
tnent" to the humblest "shop" all display their
blcdea treasures.
Vague rumor bad whispered tbe surmlsa that
sonnets were to be smaller, but an unbelieving
public bad disregarded the warning, and de
elded it to be practically Impossible that any
bonnet could be invented of smaller dimension!
than the airy trifles in whloh pretty beads bad
braved tne pitiless blasts of winter, the keen
winds of spring, a sd tbe fiery rays of the mid'
summer sun. This is the age of dauntless
achievement, however; and anybody who dare
to say that a thing oannot be done deserves to
be disappointed, and so was tbe lnoredulous
tmbllo. lor tbe tilumphant milliners have
proved that a bonnet, or what they call a bon
net, bad not yet reached the "absolute little."
The shape bas not materially altered, the
most oonsplouous point being the raised band
In front, enphnlstically called a "diadem."
This highly adorned band or frontlet mounts
guard over an exceedingly small straoture,
which serves as a sort of stem to tbe superim
posed flowers, or as the ground of attachment
for a lace streamer; these ornaments seeming
to have, like human walls, an invisible means
of support. Oae bonnet presented to our atten
tion as an "especially elegant blaok velvet"
puzxled us for the moment, for ho blaok velvet
was to be seen ; bat we are proud to boast of our
presence of mind, for gently dlsplaslng
the charming rose that decorated It, "All
tbe fairer for Its oneness," as the poet
sings, there, hidden beneath the blooming
petals, was the black velvet !
According to the best taste, Invisible ground
works are or the qnlet and sober tints used In
tbe walking suits blaok, brown, grey, drab,
and the many eye-pleading "neutrals,"
trimmed with tbe gorgeous oolors salted to
the season, suoh as the yellows, through all
their shading of orange and flame to the soft
canary; the multitudinous reds, lnoludlng the
ever popular scarlet, the rloh purples, tbe mag
nlfloent crimsons, and tbe new and splendid
"Sultana." To those who adopt the Shake
spearian maxim "Be neat, not gaudy" the
varlons handsome blues are the favorite oolors
for the young, and unsurpassed In beoomlng
ne?s are tbe beautiful variety of greens that
refresh the eye with their continual pleasant
ness. The display in millinery is richer and more
extensive this autumn tban ever before. The
smaller shops are increasing with unexampled
rapidity all over the city; some of the old esta
blishments formerly clustered In the oloae pre
cincts of the busier parts of Chesnut street are
finding ampler accommodations and a new
field by lntrudtng into streets heretofore exclu
sively devoted to private residences, and in
Arch street and Eighth street there are many
establishments of Imposing dimensions.
Messrs. Wood A Cary have, as usual, a very
large and handsome assortment both of made
up goods and materials. But the skill displayed
In the construction of the genuinely artlstlo
hat and bonnet, even in their present minute
form, Is so apparent that any lady might well
hesitate to attempt suoh a work of art with un
trained fingers, however delloate her fanoy or
true her taste. The deftness with whloh the
wreath Is twined or the laoe draped differs
strikingly in Its artful artlessness from the
rigid propriety and exaotltnde which
seem to invariably injure the grace
of the inferior imitations or the
home-made structures. At this house we
admired the frequent use of the Spanish veil:
the drapery falling back In easy lines breaks
thebarp outline of the present bonnet, and
the apparent negligence of the folds bas a soft
ening effect much needed for tbe otherwise too
much exposed head. A bat with a soft, high
crown, at Messrs. Wood & Gary's, was also a
pleasant novelty, differing from the harsh,
"sharp"-looklng little erections that seem
bristling defiance to all observers. ,
Mr. Hafleigh has added to the attraction of
bis splendid opening of walking suits a fine
array of French bonnets, well fitted to matoh
the magnificence of tbe dresses. Muoh admired
for its simple elegance was a Blsmark velvet,
the plaited diadem being of the same material,
merely adorned with a heron plume; a bonnet
of drab velvet, relieved by a single exquisite
pink rose, was also remarkable for elegance.
One of the moBt notable changes in the
fashion of the season is in the flowers, whloh
have suddenly expanded from the pretty
delicate blossoms prevailing last season
into the most fall blown proportions. Ttfere li
certainly a gain in oolor but a loss in graoe
Feathers of every description are welcomed a8
a most suitable deooratlon for the heavy winter
materials. The long plumes of the ostrich are
always graceful, and there Is also a very rloh,
fnll waving plume called the cavalier. Small
feathers of changing bnes are appropriate ap
pendages to the "chameleon" coloring at pre
sent ao popular in dress materials. The tiny
numming oira witn us jewei-nae lustre, ana
the many other small birds, are a piquant deco
ration, and gayer tastes can be satisfied with
the lutense brilliancy of tbe scarlet Ibis.
As the airy nothings of bonnets permit no
variation In shape, and only give fanoy range
In decoration, the suppressed passion for con
struction finds vent in tbe hats. These vary
from flat, low-crowned oval, round or square-
shaped, tnroagu a wide range or -niga crowns."
Some of tbe latter have a picturesque grace
well suited to some of the styles of ladles who
have been gifted by nature or art with tbat
modern, mucb-admlred characteristic dash !

Freemnu's first over was a maiden. Clav eun
Griffiths for one. Freeman. LhA dttnirantl re. h
credited wlthanother maiden. Radoline slipped
Orlffith for one, and Clay repeated the
compliment. The seoond ball from Fiee
man cracked Clay on the nose, and
water was called lor, but the veteran re
tired to tbe pavilion for a few minutes and
Waterman for the time took bis plaoe; on the
next over Wlllsber relieved Grinitu and bowled
a malde.n which was a decided oonirast with
those of Griffith, whose stows were being badly
punished. Another maiden for Freoman, who
was prettily blocked by Waterman; and still
another for WlllHher, who Is not at all on the
wicket. Wlllsber caught Wateman on the next
over oir Freeman. Kleven wickets for 29 runs.
Clay then returned to bis ponltlon and blocked
Freeman for the rest of tne over. Tbe
first ball from Wlllsber took tbe vails
off RadcllnVs stumps and caromed
on the eyes of Pooley, and the game was thus
Interrupted for a short space of time- Barclay
appeared at tbe wicket, and Pooley, having
been satisfied tbat noining serious had occurred,
went to work again. Barclay tried tue Cam
bridge hake once or twloe, but tbe fielding was
too much for scoring; C ay drove Freemn for
two, and added anotner by a leg-bye; Barclay
then struck bis leg before the wicket, and Freo
man struck tbat member, and the batsman re
tired. Morgan replaced him, and was sent to
tbe rear by a fine catch by Wlllsher off Free
man. White Joined Clay, and as these two
bad made a good aland oa the flMt
Inning, great things were ei peeled of them;
but Freeman again hoisted a siump on the first
ball, and Mr. White was out. G. Newhall oc
cupied his place, and was served la the same
manner, tne Dan going into tne leg sticks irotn
his pads. Freeman was thus credited with
three wicket, la three balls, a feat not often
witnessed either here or any where else. Outer
brldae then tried his luck, but was decided out
leg before wicket. This was sometblog more
tban was calculated foar wickets In four balls
and was loudly applauded by the spectators. It
tiow commenced to look as though the prediction
made by the Englishmen, that tbe Amerloans
wonid not make lorty in this inning, would
be verified. Tbe next over from Freeman was
a maiden, and the same from Wlllsher, whloh
was tne seventh, successive maiden lor him;
Markoe was retired on a eaten bv Tarrant off
Freeman; Magee went in and made a handsome
Dy nit lor s; ciay inen succumbed to a rattier of
that destructive individual. Freeman. Magee
took bis plaoe. and on the next over had bis
leg stump knocked over by Wlllsher. 20
wickets for 85 runs. Cooper B lrd took the wil
low in band, and after prettily playing Freeman
lor some time, was ueoiareu out, leg oerore

Tne Naturalization IMUlculty.
NI8I FBITJS-ChlelJus Ice Thompson la regard
to tbe motion yesterday made for certain rule, tu
Chief Jusilca this morning; decided as follows:
Io tbs roatler ot tbe "Ulilna of A. J. IdcCleary for a
petition tor a rale oa Hoses Papers and others lineal it
petition mentioned for a rule to show caiee whf
tbelr admission tootllinihlp should uot b revoked;
and tbe certificates of said admissions should not bs
delivered up to be cancelled.
1 bava concluded to Kiat tbe rnls as prayed for) In
tbe oases of Henry Crust aad Holl, wbo, It It sat
forih, were naturalized on tbe 2let of Heplexiber,
nltlmo. Tba cause alleged Is, tbat aaoh of these psr

Dose on tba condllloa tbat tbe Attorney Cleoeral
sball appear on tbe record to prosecute tha rule.
One citlr.en cannot Itnnuga tbe notion of
a Court In natural satlou cases ao far as
to require the cancellation ol na'nralltatlon papers,
boms publto authority must do tbls, aud I under
stood, when tba question was baaried np, that tbe
Aitorney-Ueneral was to be tbeorno.al aarty to tbe
proctsolog. Yetbls name doet not appear on It as
an aoloi. That can be made right now If that otrioer
cheeses. Kven tban U is a most serious
queeitou bow far and In what maunsr this
Court can aot. If the certificates were In the
posHesston of the Coart, no difficulty weuld
aTiVe- Ihev could be cancelled, without deubt;
bat whether I have the power U proceed as In equity
or otoerwlse, and compel the party to gWe U up, or
in default to mate a (lenree Invalidating It. la not
clear and will be the suhjeot of consideration on the
returii oHibe rule. Keasoolns on these aueetlons. and
