Tkift the love of money Is
The Koot full Kvll
was abundantly Illustrated at a funeral that was
to have takeu place on Sunday, but which, for
all I know, may bo pending now. Mrs. Ann
Sutton, a woman sixty years of au;e, resided In
Canal street, wherein the houses are not pre
cisely the couuterport of those In Fifth avenue.
At the time of her death Mrs. Sutton was not
believed to be burthened with too much money.
Consequently physicians did not tlock around
her death-bed, undertakers were scarce, and few
were the masses that were suld for hor soul.
Coroner Flynn procured the services of an
undertaker named Kennedy, who proceeded to
convey the remains to what Is technically known
as "bone-garden," alias "Potter's Field." At this
juncture the family of Mrs. Sutton discovered
that she had a lank account amounting to $800.
This discovery' was coincidental with several
others, to wit: that Mrs. Sutton had always
been a dear old thing, and that If she had known
What to do with her money she would have left
it to this one and that one who held to her the
attitude of relatlons-in-chief. These relations
therefore got together, held an Indignation
meeting, called in another undertaker, and Insti
tuted a free fight over the remains. If the poor
eoul in her collln had only been In a trance and
had retained her consciousness, she might have
learned n better though more bitter lesson In
that brief space than In all the rest of her life
put together. Undertaker No. 1 was routed, but
It was not until a late hour, when an anti-demon-etration
was got up by another bevy of the
tlec-'ascd's money-made friendfaud the burial
wv.6 indefinitely delayed.
liiniitf, tlie Chinese (Slant,
made his first appearance in this city yesterday
morning at 11, at Wood's Museum. I shall
not be able to give a full account of him here.
It would take too long a letter. There was so
much of him to see. I took him in parts. His
hours of reception were from 11 to 1 in the
morning, from 3 to 5 In the afternoon, and from
6 to 9 in the evening. The first of these inter
vals I devoted to his legs, the second to his
body, and the third to his head and arms. I
entertain liberal views of him. They may be
Bald to be large. It has taken me considerable
, time to make up my mind about hiin. It took
' me a long time to come to the end of hhu, so of
course it was late ere I arrived at a conclusion.

a half. He speaks English broken, of course;
but then he looks as though he could break any
thing. His pig-tail is the e pluribua unuta of
,g-tails. J to evidently goes me wnoie nog.
ne wonderful thing about him is his incessant
mobility. He is always on the grow.
His wife, Kln-Foo, commenced by lovlug him
very much, but it is understood that he has
grown quite out of her affections.
At a house in Thirteenth street a certain enter
tainment is in progress which has hitherto been
kept quite secret. It is doubtful whether the
entertainment will take with the public, or whe
ther the entertainers will not be taken by the
police. To bo perfectly frank, the performance
is a little worse thau that which has hitherto
been known as the
Nude Drama.
The entire costume of every young woman
who assists in it consists of one garment, which
fits her like a pink silk skin, and into which she
gets by inserting her lovely little feet into the
neck of the garment. Thus habited, she be
comes a liviug statue of unseulptured flesh, that
fashionable l'ygmalions may sigh for not alto
gether in vain. Seven of these llesh-and-bloodists
are understood to be at this present moment in
this city, "waiting for an engagement," fully
convinced of the sanctity of their art, devout
believers in the divinity of materialism.
I am at a loss to account for the flattering
notices which
MIns Ariics Ethel,
the protege of Matilda Heron, and debutante at
Daly's Fifth Avenue Theatre, has achieved. She
is young but not pretty, and not overwhelm
ingly promising. She is simple and natural,
but she is also angular and awkward. The
undue congratulations she has received place
her in a position dangerous to herself, and that
is the danger she of course is the last to perceive.
I observe that tho
I.ei'turem Are In I lie Field
again. Josh Billings will take $75 for a night's
lecture; so will Mark Twain. Mrs. Julia Ward
Howe accepts of f 100. Olive Logan will take
what she can get or wait for it. Gough, who,
if he had not become a temperance-lecturer,
might have done a good deal of good to the
world by the warning furnished in his inebriety,
takes half the house. The season will soon set
in, and to the old staff of lecturers several new
oues have been added. Ali Baba.
MIMICAL AII IKAMTIC.
Air. mid Mrs. Wathlim nt the Walnut.
Last eveniug Mr. and Mrs. Watklns appeared
at the Walnut to a fair audience, in tho Irish
drama of Trodden Down, or I'wler Two Flags.
These artists obtained a fair amount of popu
larity duriug their last engagement hero, im
proving greatly on acquaintance. Mr. Watkins
Is a good comedian, and as a pcrsonator of Irish,
pcaci.ut character he is much superior to Barney
Williams, and indeed to most of the actors who
make a specialtv of that lino of business. Mrs.
Watkins is a reiined aud ladv-like actress, and a
better vocalist than is generally seen upon the
dramatic stage. These artists do not succeed
in attracting as crowded houses as Mr. and Mrs.
Williams. Imt if them is iinv merit in the Irish
drama itself outside the popularity of Individual
performers, thev ought to achieve both famo and
ioriunc. l heir acting is quite as amusing aim iu
other rcsnects much belter than that of the Wil-
liamses. and it mav bu that in course of time the
public will learu to appreciate them as highly as
it docs the stereotyped extra vugauecs of Baruey
and his wife.
The drama of Trodden Down we referred to
on the recent appearance of Mr. and Mrs. Wat-
kiim nt. Iliu '.limi u 1 1 iw.t iiniDdd!irv tliere-
lore to make any extended remarks about it. It
is un Irish drama of tho common type, and it
gives us pretty much the same line of" characters
that we aru accustomed to in works of its class.
It has some good dramatic situations, and a plot
of considerable InLcn st I 1'airlv worked out.
While the dialogue is oftentimes wiltv, and it
sparkles with those patriotic passages "that stir
me fining uioou ana oritig clown tiuiuuers oi ap
plause. The loud'mir i.i,.i-i..ii.ra i.-iv fr. and
Mrs. Watkins irood nnnm-i million in ilianlnv their
abilities, ami the approbation shown by the ati-
un.-111-o iiim evening indicated that their etiurts
were appreciated.

Bhades the lady . physloKoiny Is made to appear
STin. f id k ?v USt TVT ,ro"1 a serltnu'ago
with a black eye, a Uutteued nose, aud a dis
colored frontispiece generally. This may, how
ever, be intended as an emblematic represonta
tion of the results of the critical encounters that
the fair Lydia has passed through duriug her
sojourn in New York, and as an appeal for
milder treatment at the hands of the quill
drivers of this city. There Is, Indeed, a pensive
and appealing look out of tho eyes that encour
ages this supposition, and, next to a personal
visit to tho various sanctums by Lydia herself
in all the glory of blonde ringlets and
spangled tights, we know of nothing
Unit would bo more likely to mollify tho
most relentless of critics than this portrait, to
which an additional value Is given by a fac
simile of Lydia's autograph.whlch Is remarkable
for a resemblance to the bold and picturesque
signature of John Hancock, appended to the
Declaration of Independence, and suggestive of
a list and arm that might make impertinent
masculines mo their daring if they should oft cud
in their remarks about the make-up of Lydia's
limits.
Alas! the best that earth can give must fade
and pass away. The blondes the great original
blondes will only dclectate us for a week or
two at the Arch, and then we shall sec them no
more. They will ''come like visions, so depart,"
but amid the desolation caused by their Hitting,
it will still be a consolation and pleasure lor lis
to retain tho portrait which Colonel Murphy has
sent us. It is too large to put into tho back of a
watch or even into a photograph album. but it can
be trained in a style to set oil Us beauties and
suspended opposite our bed. where the discolored
optic will appear to wink at us as we fall into
slumber, and the pensive smile which lingers
about the comers of the mouth will greet our
waking moments in the morning.
At tuf? Chesnvt the work of reconstruction
is going on as rapidly as possible, and the theatre
will be ready for the reception iu the course of
a lew weeks. Mrs. (iarrcttson has secured Miss
Laura Keene as the first star of tho season, aud
IS this ladv has not nimciircil liorii for n nnmhnr
of years, she will doubtless receive li cordial wel
come on the opening of t lie new theatre, for that
is wiiat the Chesnut will In reantv be when all
the alterations arc completed.
