THE pllLY KEENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPmA, "TIIURSDAr, MAROII 11, 1669. ITMW TOREISMS. frtn Our Own OurretpomUmL Hiw Tore, March 11, 1869. The resignation of Mr. 8iewart Is of course fee chief topic of conversation alike in bank fflcesand breakfast parlois at least It was esterday morning. To day A. T. 8. sinks Into comparative Insignificance, lie 'besomet the rone man Instead of tbe covin? man, and all eyes are turaeJ In tbe direction of this latter monstrosity, ready to ftloat upon him with affectionate triumph whenever ho shall be pleaded to pat In an apoearanee. By the by, what a capital editorial that Is in the World to-day, .entitled. ''Mr. B ewart's Grand Charity," and dwelling noon tho piety and munificence of that shrewd seller. If charily is cold, I am. sure he stands belo zero, and perhaps that is prci ely the man we ought to have had for tbe Secretary of tho Treasury. Tbe landlords threaten to raise their rents with the 1st ot Miji wblch case there will be a grand exit ol between fifty and one hundred thousand people from New York. Rents are already higher than people of limited locoues ccn very we.l stand, llowcver "straitened" the tenant's means may be, the landlord Is always devising a "crookeder" path for them to flow into. The tew York "1st cf Mav" sjstem, by the by, is ono of the most unbearable S3 stems that was ever Invented in tho memory of man. Such a grand transformation scene as is wltucjsed then, In every other residence of suburb and city, was never equalled in the hUtory of the spectacular stage from the era of the Black Crook down to that of Bumpty Jhimpty. And there is no reason why the system adop.ed in lariro cities abroad by which a tenant is at liberty to leave his house at any quarter of the year, should not be put into successful vogue here. More than anything else, it would have a tendency to demolish the first of May movement, which Is jnoie of an All Fool's Day, when looked at in tnat light, than the first of April ever was. The anticipated rite in rents is preparing many a family of moderate means to look out for homes for themselves in Westchester county, New Jersey. Long Island, and the score of suburbs whose locus New York. Year after year thousands of our people, who hoped to live and die with the Gotbatn atmosphere of their nativity around them, have been compelled to radiate away from this fascinating focus, and Wy their heads at night upon pillows very remote from the central metropolitan mansions where they were established in their palmier days. And matters have reached now such a crisis that any farther rise In rents will distri bute among the environs at least seventy-five thousand people whose utmost struggles at pre sent just enable them to "live decently." The scavenger murderer whom 1 mentioned In mv last has been examined by the coroner and held to answer, and a mysterious woman has Incontinently died from tbe effects of lager not laudanum. The woman belongs to the class who are descrloed, in thfl' language of the Morgue, as "unknown." She is thirty years old, wears a red velvet cao, crape trimmings, white handkerchief around her neck, morocoo boots, pia d bDrdtred grey shawl, calico underskirt, and black overokirt. Had a lunch in her pocket of sardines packed between brown bread and made into a pi.-ca'ory sandwich. Such a woman of a su Jdcn enters a laeer-b-er saloon ou For sjth street, aks fcr "ein glass," awalloffs the contents without blowing oil the froth, and drops down deal. Ilia she put laudanum into It T No one saw her do so, ana the coroner not beine notified of her death until nearly twelve hours after it happened, nt facts have yet bicn got at, except the mytrious one ot her being spirited away In a jiffy to a second-class under, taker's 00 the Bowery. It may be a case of bushed-up murder, or it may be a case of "de termined" suicide ''determined," of course, who ever beard of a suicide tbat wasn't "deter mined ?"), or it may be a case of death from natural causes. Bat in tbe present state of public apprehension, when the shadow of the elusive "Jim" is jet hanging over the matutinal sweepers of area-steps, the prejudices are in lavor of dtath by violence. Yesterday evening was celebrated the first anniversary of Sump'y Dumpty'a birth. After the evening's public enlerta.nment was over, tables were arranged on the large stae of the Olympic Theatre, and all hands present "lell in," the plunder consisting of everything eatable and driukable tbat usually figure upon preten tious bills of fare, llany of the actjrs and actresses ot other theatres were present, aud the theatrical critics of the various daily and weekly newspapers were largely represented. It was a novel idea this celebration of Hump'.y JhttniAy'B birth, one worthy of the brain of tho conccctor ol tbe conceits which figure on picto rial placards over all the waste places ol the city, representative of the more salient incidents ia the career of that spoiled darling, who, like other darllugs of the public, before this, has remained so long a time "on the fence."' Mlts Kellogg has been playing "Violetta," aud the newt-papers have been declaring that she sings better than La Grange doet, and acts better than GazznigAdd. To praise Miss KcL lofgls thelathion. To hint that Patti, Nilsson, or Tictjeus may posbibly be her superior proves jou to be cither suburban or cynical. The costumes at the opera, particularly during Clara Louise's appearances, have been verv gorgeous. Fashionable young men have Instituted a new custom, namely, that of parting their beards- such of them as have any in tno middle, which gives them a horny or task-like appearance, ery prepossessing.
