I 1"'PC(J. however, that no confederations of severe
propriety will prevent anyone from visiting these
entertainments, for any young man or woman whose
morals could possibly smrer would have no morals
worth speaking of to begin with. It Is the first re
qnlslte for the success of gilded sin that It shall be
smuslng, that It shall present attractions superior to
those held out by decency and godliness. When the
Devil begins to be a bore we Immediately vote him
to be a very disreputable character, and Incontinently
tick him out of doors. To say that the new bur
lesque entitled 1'arw, or the jmUimrnt, which ha
been brought out this week at the Chesnut by the
Ellse Holt Troupe, Is stupid, would not do It Just ice,
or adequately represent the facts of the case ; It
is solemn, and. with nil due rmriinl for
I the seriousness of the subject, we have no hesitation
Ijc declaring that a good lively prayer-meeting Is a
1 better entertainment, and even far more funny.
looking at the matter merely from a jocular point of
view.
Dr. Franklin had a recipe by which a restless
would-be slurabercr might Induce repose. This was
to Imagine a flock of sheep jumping one after the
other over a gate, and to count them as they went
over. A more certain method than this for producing
somnolence would be to try and keep the run of the
puns and jokes in this burlesque In an effort to under
stand them, and see where the laugh came In. This
Is not altogether such a bad idea, as the sleeper
might wake up at the fall of the curtain and imagine
that lie had been well entertained, anil he certulnly
could not persuade himself Into any such belief if he
kept his eyes and ears open.
We have seldom seen a more appreciative audience
In any place of amusement than there was at the
Chesnut last evening. Row after row they sat and
faced the performers, determined to see the thing
through at all hazards. On tho stage the facile legs
wriggled, and blondes grimaced with a certain
solemnity of demeanor, as If they fully appreciated
the ponderous character of the work they had in
hand. Some of the hymns ahem ! we mean the classic,
songs such as "Captain Jinks" and "Unpolished
Feminine," awoke responsive echoes of applause
from the back benches, bnt for the most part a serene
silence reigned in the auditorium. The golden
haired Britons called in vain upon our national
heroes from Washington to Grant, but not even one
patriotic youth in the gallery was to be found
to do them honor in such a connection. A
complimentary notice of Butler ami his
spoons failed to excite any sympathetic response
and a mention of Andy Johnson even was answered
by nothing more than a sardonic snicker. The per
formance was not even agreeably nasty ; there was
not quite as much undress on the part of the female
performers as was noticeable last week ; it was not
flavored with such gums of song as "ltolllcking
Bams," "Cheekty Little Cove," and others of
similar character, and the idiotic dreariness of the
whole affair appeared to affect the actors as much as
It did the audience.
It Is possible to have too much even of a
good thing, and the signs of the times seems to Indi
cate that classic burlesques and yellow-haired Eng
lish blondes have had their day. It Is to be hoped
that the next freak of public taste will be for some
thing of a little higher grade. Of such performances
as Paris; or, Tht Judgment, we have certainly had
quantum nvff.

Thk Vital Statistics ok thk Unitkd Stati h show
that periodical fovprn and aotite and chronic disorders of
the atomach and bowcla are among: the mowt prominent
and fiitnl disoaacs in this country. Disobedience to the
laws of health, an regards diot ; the uao of pemicioua stim
ulant; and the wcur and teur of business excitement, and
of "font life" generally, have much to do with the preva
lence of these maladies in our cities; while in the West,
and especially in the newly-opened districts, tbey are
chiefly due to malaria, unwholesome water, and the expo
sure and privation incident to life in new settlements.
Now, IT IX A FACT that it is as possible to protect Hie
human system against these raaladiea as to guard life and
property against the incursions of assassins and thieves.
Strengthen the vitjil organization with Hohtktteh'b Sto
mach Rittkrr, and it becomes as capable of resisting the
active principle of epidemic or endemic disease aa a fire
proof safe is of resisting the action of combustion. Tliis
ia tho experience of thousands who have remained un
scathed by malarious disorders in tho sickliest seasons,
whilo their neighbors, who neglected to tone and regulate
their systems with this unequalled medicinal stimulant,
have fallen thick and fast around them. Weakness invites
disease. Vigor repels it. Help nature to tight the good
fight with infection, whether it ba in the air, tho water, or
the soil, with this matchless preparation a compound of
the rarest vegetable extracts with tho purest of all dilTu
s've stimulants.

counting-room.
The key to the safe n which we kept onrsecnrltles
was locked Inside of our fire-proof book safe, the
doors of which were literally cut to pieces; from this
they obtained the key to the other safe and opened
ft. 'Fortunately we had one of your Burglar-Proof
Banker's Chests Inside, in which our valuables were
deposited. This they went to work at with a will,
aud evidently used up all their tlmo and tools in vain
attempts to force it. The nlRht was dark and stormy,
and the fact of their knowing Where our key was
kept shows that their plans were well matured. They
tried wedging the door and body of the Chest, and
the falthrul sale bears evidence of the labor and Bklll
devoted to the work. All was useless, and It la with
great satisfaction we report that upon opening It we
found our securities all safe, and can therefore cheer
fully indorse the Burglar-Proof work recommended
by you.
