r-; r- THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, MARCH G, 1869. HEW Y0RK1SM8. trom Our Own Correspondent. New Yore, March , 1869. The literary world of the United State Is by Una time aware that the damages accorded to Mr, Charles Kcado In his recent eult are placed at tlx cents j but that literary world Is not perhaps so well aware of the number of author that wore quoted from In order to prove that "Griffith Gaunt" was a wicked book. Milton and Mr. Hnry Wood were hauled over alter nately, and "Paradise Lost" and "East Lynno" were placed aide by elde. Dickens, Trollopo, WTklo Collins, Dumas, and Miss Braddou came In for their share of praise and blame, but tho American authors, I am happy to any, had their fair fame left nnlmpnsncd. Such a crush and rush as there was at the French Theatre ball on inauguration night! Perhaps the very cream of respectability was not represented, but then there were plenty of beautiful women aDd fast men and beauty and "fastness" are the nest best tbings to bravery and virtue. Before tht doors of the theatre, in Fourteenth street, a heavy crowd waited until midnight, ahouling out volleys of sneering re marks as the fair and fiaihily-uudressed da mas passed. '"O my! a'n't shetcrumptlous?" "Look at them perambulators, Jlral" "Good ai the Black Crook any day." Nor Wore theae remarks without reason. The ladle Who trod upon one auother'd hels ia their pas sage into the French Theatre seemed to have arrived at the progressive couviction that brevity is the soul ol fashion as well as of wit, for their toilettes, like that ol Talleyrand's bolle, beean too late and ended too early. Buti, legs, and balr are wo men's three claims to per sonal oonnt leratlon nor-aulghts. Accord tngly the ba I des artistes at the French Tuoatre Was an overbrmruiDg aemblace of blonde locks, perambulators in tights, and besoms in nothing worth mentioning. I am afraid to say how many women were there in the costume of the pastry cook in Genevieve. I admired them In the ball-room immensely, and I pitied them cut of it, when I saw them stepping out after mid night in that bitter March wind,and walking col- . lectedly to their carriages with nothing to pro tect those tender "bicycles" except the pink fleshings that clung to them like skin. "Ca naille" forgot all about her coach. A light lace Tell thrown loosely about the neck was all she deigned to wear while "Alfredo" was looking after her carriage. But probably the poor thiug was warm enough inside, for the champagne ' flowed like water. About half past 12 o'clock, too, an accident occurred which, hai the char acter of the ball been frigidly respectable, would have sent half the ladies home to bed in , histories. This was none other than the breaking down of tha floor over the seats ' In the parquette. Considering the crash that was made the consternation was very slight, and that little was allayed by the sudden appearance in one of the upper boxes of a fluent young man the theatrical critic, in fact, of one of the Sunday papers here who addressed the assembly flrat in English and then in French, and assured them that the floor Would be mended in fifteen minutes. The sequel proved him better than his word. In ten min utes the breach was filled up, and by 1 o'clock tho Can can was in full blast. The anxiety that Is manifested, bj-tbe by, by pious and respect able people, to see this Cancan is most remark able, Peoplo who have scarcely ever been to balls before go to the fancy dress ones here, When it is probable French actresses will appear and the Can can be enacted. It is something to say you have seen it. Having seen It once, you would no more crow the street to witness a repetition than you would take a voyage to O aheite to witness the performance ot national dances by the Traviatas of that clime. The keeper of a swimming school at the foot of Sixty-sixth street has been unsuccessfully trying to Barnumlze the public with a whale. The wbale was made to order from a fac simile furnished by Imagination, and was provided inside with accommodations for three men, whose duty it was to work its intricate ma chinery. This machinery imitated the effects produced bythe lungs and the muscular system of the animal, and enabled it to splurge and flounder with the most cetaceous lifelikencss. The natatorium keeper theu did what would have been a very wise thing if what he had first done bad been honest he advertised the whale in all the newspapers, and drew an immense crowd to the swimming school. The three im pious . Jonahs confined in the ceta cean abdomen did their work well. The crowd screamed and dapped their hands, as New York crowds will. It was a sure pop this time, and they b.id .got a big thing; tint, alas) it always happens that fithe enfan: terrib'e is lurking about somewhere. The boy is the father of the man, and the enfant terrible Is the procreator of the adult spoil sport. One of the on-lookers, whose ejes should have been better employed, and who managed to remain unobserved after the others bad withdrawn, saw - the three Jonahs emerge after the performances were over. He told his friends, and the whole party fet to work on the great fish-fraud, aud ia a few moments bad demolished it. The pro prietor meanwhile eloped, and will find it pro fitable, for the future, to restrict his advertise ments to natatorial facts. I mentioned the other day that a murderous a'tack had been made on the Inmate of a car- ' rlage who was supposed to be Judge Bedford, but who happened to be his brother, Dr. Bed ford, and that the Judge had Incurred the spite of a herd of ruffians on account of the heavy sentences he had lately pronounced on various criminals. It has transpired that a still more murderous outrage bad been planned S gainst District Attorney Courtney, and for the same reason. The chief traufgressor suspsoted Is a native of jour city, a "Philadelphia Jack," for whosa precedents 1 refer you to your felon flies, and probably yon will find his picture in the Booties' Gallery at Fifth aud CheBnut. The l.lan was broached in Ludlow Street Jail when Jack was on a visit to some friends. The remarkable thing is how Jack and his friends in prison came to be permitted to hold together such uninterrupted conference that a $100 note wa allowed to be slipped into Jack's hands on the condition that he would waylay Courtney the first dark night, and settle his bach with a club first and a razor afterwards. Neither the club nor the raaor, however, has been brought into requisition. The detectives bave, however, and are busy tracing oat Phlla delphla Jack. Occasionally a voice comes to ns from the Interior of the House ot Detention. That voice belongs to James Logan, number two, who, having been held as a witness for eight weeks, (s anxious either to baud In hit evidence, or to dure Id the prisoner's box, or to be discharged. Yesterday he addressed a plaintive note to thl effect to the Major. I think, also, be would bave no ob)ection to shaae hands with those $2000 which Oakey Hall the Munificent pro raised to supply out of hrs own private purse. We arc going soon to enjoy quite a bitch of small novelties in the way ot atnusoment. Kate Bcignolds Is living quietly in town, pre paring for The Shadow of a Crime, and Richelieu at Six'een, and losklng very younsr, considering she is young no longer, aud the amount of travel she has endured. Miss Maiiott, the EnglUh, tragedienne, will make her first appearance in tbl.t country on the 2!Hh of the present month as "Htmlut." There are various opinions entertained as to her proba bility of success. Abroad Mies Mariott's toubri quet is the "Elephant;" and iluce sylphs seem to possess the only attractions popular beie at present, it is tcarcely safe to assert that ele phantine charms will draw large houses. At auy rate, MisiMarloU has a reputation as an actress, which is moro than Mm. Scott SldJons had, aud the ro'e of "Hamlet," enacted byafemalci may be called a tragic log-part in the lt glttm ito bubince?, us much so as Ro3a)lttd is in comedy. Then Mr. Jehiu Pruroe, who has already con certlzed here somewhat, is going to try his band again. As a violinist he is great; as any thing else he is said to be nothing. Of him (as It was similarly said of Goldsmith ), he plays like an angel and talks like poor foil. On dU tbat he is excessively iUtHra'c and understands absolutely nothing but "the fiddle aud the bow.". Then, on tho 6th of April, the Fronch (wof the English) opera bouffe is to have a per manent homo at the little theatre now known as Brougham's, and John is to go I don't know where. Perhaps to England, where he has hosts of friends. I am afraid he h'as been "Playing with Firej" and in the management of a theatre has discovered too many "Flies in the Web." Finally, a voung German named Moesin gcr, who has learted English, Is to debut next Wednesday evening, at the New York Theatre, in the play of Ilirko, or.King and Executioner; adapted for him from the German, by Professor FrobUher. Great things are said of Mr. Moe slnger by his agents. I saw the youug gentle, man yesterday morning. He looks not more than twenty-five or six, has a swarlby com plexion, like a Spaniard, long black hair and black burning eyes, suggestive of some of the thousand faces in Vandyke's pictures. Sixthly (as Verges would say),. Miss Kelloag is going to essay "Violetta" in La IraciaU, at the Academy on Monday night, aud Miss Lisa Weber takes her bright hair and her blonde wig away from Niblo's after this evening, and Mr. Beck et, the astounding "Hissarac" of The Forty Thieves, returns to London. Fixe Morfebal Bracket is distinguishing him self in his way as much as Assessor Webster in bis. He has been making a raid ou the insurance companies, and insisting that they shall make monthly returns of their losses, or, at lcat, at certain interval-, as often as subsequent consideration may Drove to be best, band in such statements of their receipts and expenditures as the public has a right to be made acquainted with.
