Shakespeare's witches, who danced round boiling
caldron of poison, singing snatches of wihl, weird
wings in the way of business, or playfully vaulted
astraddle of their broomsticks and took bare-hack
rides through space, regardless of night air, chills
or Influenza, were superior, ax a class, to their com
paratively Imbecile descendants, who failed, when
brought, into contact with Jerackling I'urltun fagots.
The witches of modern fiction invarlaitly have a sue
vr.ar.ru 1 run of business until warned, by Illness or
Hie hangman, tlint, their last moments are drawing
near, when they expose their own chicaneries and
crimes, send forth tne black eat to loe Its ninth
and last Hie at the hands of ye gentle little savages
of the village, and prepare to die us pood and trim
Christians, who have reformed at the eleventh hour,
should die.
That the success ot all the witchcraft of every age
lins been dependent upon the superstition and vice
of the people Is no more true of the past than of tho
present, and the proof Is found in the existence in
our own city of a large numlsT of these prototypes
f the Witch of Kndor, yclept clairvoyants, astrolo
fClsts, business mediums, spiritual mediums any
thing in li:ct, save the vulgar svnonym, "fortune
teller." Of the vw!uit itprruiuli of these people, but few are
ignorant, for day after day their ante-rooms are filled
with men and women and young girls, waiting with
anxiety the Interview with the woman "who hath n
familiar spirit.;" for, of the llfteeu or twenty fortune
tellers of the city, all that come under our observa
tion are women women of the most, ignorant order,
and, In some cases, of depraved ehuracter. A person
not conversant with these people and their transac
tions, on his (tret visit is astonished at the credulity
of their visitors, and as lie becomes more intimate
with their business his astonishment increases. The
majority of the fortune-tellers do a two-fold business
tall the foolish and pander to the crimes of the
wicked ; for it is a tact incapable of contradiction,
that in many Instances the women who follow this
liminnwii, as they call it, are, if not abortionists
themselves, at least agents for the people who prac
tise infant murder. Tie same woman who tells the
giddy girl of her future inheritance will, with but
few, if any exceptions, also put her "who loved not
wisely but too well," in the way of getting rid of the
result of her sin in an "easy and sale" manner.
Hut, since they make such a bungle of science gene
rally, their operations in this line are anything but.
"safe and easy, ' and whenever they engage in the
iniquitous business the unhappy subject is en
evtloped by even greater peril to lile than in ordi
nary cases.
One of the reporters of Tiik Kvkning Tm.EiiKtrii.
in a tour of observation among the "lortime-tollers"
within the past week has elicited many facts that
may prove neither iminteroting nor of littlebeuefit to
: hose whose curiosity might, perchance, induce them
to become victim, to the cupidity of these preten
ders to superhuman power and intelligence. His
tfrst visit was made to the establishment of a negress.
On the front window of the first floor a placard in
forms the reader that plain sewing is done within,
but no announcement is made that the venerable
old woman combines with plain sewing the occupa
tion of a "clairvoyant physician.' Going down half
a dozen rickety wooden steps to the basement door,
a little yellow gill admitted and invited the "gcntlc
raau'1 to take a seat, and, displacing three cats lroni
a dirty chair, he" sat down and proceeded to take a
general observation of the Interior of the "waiting
room." A dirty room with a settee Innocent of upholstery,
naif a dozen wooden chairs, a cooking stove ami a
rag carpet for furniture, aud a placard extolling the
benefits t be derived from the use of Dr. Somebody's
Universal Liniment, as a wall adornment, describes
everything inanimate; live cats of every color, save
white, known in the cat tribe, seven women, one
man, aud tho diminutive darkey before mention.' I,
were the occupants, of the women, all customers,
three were evidently Celtic and the wives of me
chanics or laborers. The remaining four females
were young women of the poorer class. The sole
male occupant was the reporter, waiting patiently
lor his "turn.'' It was at last, announced. Ascend
ing a narrow, filthy stairway to the back parlor.be
was ushered into the presence of the renowned .Mrs.
M. "Take ills sijal, sail. Wll! ye shutlle de cards''"
A duty pack ol' common playing cards Is handed
you, milliliter a desultory attempt at shuilliiig, they
were passedjto tl.e old lady un The other side of the
little Ki(iiare table, and fur tin; first time au opportu
nity was given for a view of the room and the
woman, who, tor anything to the contrary in her ap
pears nee, might have been his Satanic Majesty's ilrst
sideline,
A common little room enough: no black cat, no
death's head and cross bones, nothing to denote ta
anybody peeping tiiiough the door-way but that
some juvenile member of a charitable society was
paying a visit ol cowloleiice to a poor old negress,
jubt, bereaved of her best friend. (Mrs. M. dresses
in becoming black, and with the most approved of
bandanna head-dresses.) While you have been
thus ruminuting, the negress has shuttled the cards
with a dexterity bespeaking long practice,
"Cut 'em in trees." Yes, and they are passed
across ine lame "cm, in trees."

anything ma matter with myself."
'Your mind maybe's troubled ?"
"No, aunty, my mind's easy."
"Den, while I lays dis card down, just watch di
run of 'cm all."
The cards are lying in rows across the table, and
the old lady ponders over them, now and then throw,
iuc a sharp glance across the table, evidently some.

forefinger, going gradually around the rable, i-li'e
points out the knave of clubs and the queen of

"Ah! there's a light complexioned young lady,

waited ou "a great, many ol de best, ladies" and had
always given satls'action and "never a accident
happened."
Another visit to a young mulatto woman, who
transacts her "profession" under one cognomen and
iiasst s generally under an alias, brought the in
evitable cards, from which was read a future glow
lug in heroism and wealth, but the humbug was fear
fully transparent, and the practitioner was evidently
. novice ill her line.
An interview, however, with a lady of the "familiar
snirit." residing in the upper portion ot inc city, who,
it Issaid, is favored with tin; patronage of the belter
classes, resulted much the same as those already
sunken of.

nor trap-door, no grating to aid In hearing from ad

of their victim prior to the rw-rt-fM.

fleeing a stranger, and rano one at that, the
lady, with hlush, drew her veil across her faoe,
and again, with a Jollity and abandon that beto
kened her visit a madcap freak, threw It back and
sat awaiting the call of the "witch." The ante
room door opens. V'loth the woman of the unpre
possessing appearance, "If the gentleman has no
objection, the Indy will step this way," and after
receiving a word of caution from her escort, the
Indy tripped gently away to know her "future des
tiny." Another wait of half an hour In silence, and a
solemn-looking child-woman is nshered in, and In
five minutes more a rnechsnic, looking very much
out of place and very much ashamed of iiimself,
takes his seat In a dark corner of the parlor.
The gaunt woman again pokes her dirty head Into
the room with a "I'sss this wey, sir;" and our
representative goes forth to meet his fate. On the
landing a stout icmalo, with a clumsy white bandage
round her cheeks, saluted us, and Invited us inside
Inside where ? Ah, yes; and Into a little bed-room
we walked, and sat tlon at an ordinary-size,
whlst-table, on which biy the nniverssl and Inevi
table cards, with their eipiitllv nnlversul and inevi
table mock snd filth gathered from apparently a
century's handling with uifoaped digits.
"Shuttle the cards, it. iitrl I'll be with you in a

"Kh! O yes. certainly, leadam."
Who cup that womiiii n-? she's certainly not
American, for o touch of the raliH iC I InruUii still

With a graceful assent to the latter sentence ami

orawn upon with more plausibility, even ifourbe ng

surety enough against danger from the fmimfmo.

the wise lady came to tin; conclusion that a little
spice of romance was necessary to make the future

the facts that

Hut in this case, as in half a dozen others, the
same details were observed, and at the end, when
the dollar was paid, the wise woman, with consum-
niftte impudence, inquired it she had told the truth.

"The week in Wall street was an excited one, par
ticularly in Its earlier stages. '1 tie opening of busi
ness was signalized by the report ol a very heavy
failure, which threw the various markets into
spasms. The amount involved was not less than a
mill 1011 ami a nan 01 nouars, ami, as many nouses
were known to Ik- connected with the bankrupts, the
greatest apprehensions prevailed. Fortunately the
latter, won 011c exception, were time 10 meet ine
losses thus entailed upon them. The one exception
was a small house, which was also compelled to
suspend. A house In the commercial line was com
pelled to suspend, but from causes not connected
with the others. The dismay which these failures
created was but, short-lived. Wall street gave Iheiu
but a passing thought and went 011 as usual.
There was some additional activity In loans, mid
a closer scrutiny of ixirrowers' names, but even this
uneasiness wore oil', and the rate 011 call relapsed
to six or seven per cent, on 1 ioverument and miscel
laneous collaterals. When tin- borrower was willing
to take a huge amount in one lot, lenders were will
ing to iisk only six per cent, upon the ordinary stock
collalerals. In commercial paper there was more
doing, as usual at this season, when the country
banks are so free buyers. The rate of discount for
prime double names ranged Irom seven to eight,
with few exceptions at nine per cent. The 'bulls' in
the gold market took advantage of tlie excitement to
run the price up to H4, but the Secretary of the
Treasury very judiciously announced that lie would
m future sell two millions of gold per week, the
eilcct or which determination on his part was asharp
decline to Wi. Whatever the vacillation of .Mr.
lhnitwell 111 the beginning or Ins administration, he
has in this step made innumerable friends for him
self. As long us he intends to exercise his
powers in behalf of the public and the business com
munity ugalnsi the gold gamblers, he will do what
will lender his term ol oltlce an exemplary one.
Some uneasiness is lell because he has not as
yet indicated that he will follow up his increased
sales ol Itold '.V increased purchases of bonds.
Doubtless this will lollow. In all the monetary
transactions or the (lovermiient since the new
administration, its most bitter political opponents
will have to conless that a studious concern has
been manifested fur the business Interests which
centre in New lors. 1.0m was not sold until the
spring stringency In money had gone by mid the
metropolis was sutllciently supplied with currency
to enable It ' HlHml withdrawal or the money
