NEW YORKISMS.
from Our Own Oorretpondent.
Naw York, Dec. 2i. ISCft.
There Is nothing to write of but amusement.
Along Broadway evergreen have suddenly
sprouted forth with mushroom-like growth.
Fourteen publlo balls are to be given between
t bis and Obrlstrnas night.
But though the list of amusements Is full,
there Is not any very great novelty In them.
I observe, by advertisements In Philadelphia
papers, that Mrs. Hoott-HUldon'i' agent Kpatiln?

noi for a moment suppose mat Pniladelpulans

entitled "l'arls, City of Luxury," and met. with,
such success that she forthwith announced her
self "received with acclamations," and adver
tlsed ber reappearance us a reader at Hletn wy
Halt Uer readings consisted of selection i from
Hiiakesnexre, Dickens, Whlttler, Haze, Tenny

sides. Olive is an ambitions and industrious
woman, but she is egotlstlcand does not always
understand what she can and what she cannot
do. For Instance, she cnunot "rend" any inure
than sue can boo. Uer debut, a few years ago,
at the, Chesnut Street Theatre of your cltv,

a comfortable sum of money In her purse, Hue

2 mention ber,
Kntertalnments of a unique character every
now and then are given at the Union League
Theatre. Hometlm.es tne entertainment Is a
Oonoert, sometimes a reading, sometimes a lec
lure, sometimes a French play, the performer
being mostly amateurs. Tne "Conferences," in
Frenoh, of Madame olympe Audouard are the
recent BcnsatloD; and the best of it Is that when
you appear there before the footlights, you have
for audience the cream of the cream of We w
York society.
Of all the enterprises of the season perhaps
that of the Central l'ark Garden is the most
paying. The success of tbe summer night con
certs given there for several years past has be
stowed upon It a prettige which its present
manager has taken very ingenious advantage
of. Two astounding facta wltn regard to tne
artists engaged at this establishment are, that
every one of them is "celebrated," and that no
one ever heard of them before.
incendiarism, in all Its varieties. Is the crime
Of tbe day. Every night several stables are set
on fire, and every morning falls to bring the
guilty ones to Justice. In such a case it be
comes a matter of curiosity to Inquire, "Win
are tbe olty authorities, and why don't they do

authorities are, or what are their duties.

Ye Bbivebino Mobtals who stand in mortal
fear of winter's blast and Its accompanying Ills, why
don't you go to Altsr's famoui Coal Yard, at No. 937
N. Ninth street, and gat the very best of coal? It Is a
domestle paradox why men and women will g)
stamping and fumlrg about the bouse because ths
slate, instead ol coal, lire gives forth no heat, when
Alter keeps constantly the cheapest aBd best of fuel,
In sucb a gilt as a ton, even more or less, of coal
there is a merit which makes It doubly Interesting to
tbe recipient. Theusands of dollars are to-day being
wasted on trifles, whlub, if but tamed to some good
account, by stocking eome deserving poor man's
cellar with Alter's coal, would greatly ameliorate
misery In our midst; and be who U prompted lodo
sacba kind act, not only to the poor, b it to Alter him'
self, should remember that It 1b more blessed to give
than to receive.
