Nbw York, Oct. 12, 1809.
Oar Grand Hotel.
At length Now York boasts a grand hotel. It
Is situated on the corncrof Thirty-first street
and Broadway, Is built of Westchester marble,
In the Romanesque style, and was erected at a
Cost of nearly one million of dollars. It Is eight
Btorics high, and each story has a distinct archi
tectural feature in the marble framing of the
Windows. You enter by a portico, and find
yourself in an ample lull, upon which an abun
dance of light rains down through an immense
domo. Corridors on every side branch out to
the hotel ofllce, the restaurant, tho bar, the
reading-room, the cigar store, the barber shop.
A double stairway of black walnut leads to
rooms which are a glittering conglomeration of
mirrors, mnrblo, curtains, carpets, and natty
raolcrn linprorcmcnts. The ices of luxury are
-supposed to hare been drained In furnishing
the appointments for this public palace. You
dine In an apartment In which the conspicuous
colors are bronze and gold, and whero the
shuffling of waiters' feet is hidden beneath tho
music of flowing fountains, and the savor of the
kitchen is sweetly disguised in the flavor of full
blown flowers. The suites of apartments are
Buch as might exist in heaven if archangels kept
hotel and saints attended to tho creature-comforts.
A novel invention in locks is attached to
every door. In summer every room will be sup
plied with Ice-water from the ice-tanks, thus
avoiding the trouble of sending especially for it.
The bar is as dazzling as cut-glnss, frosted silver,
and blinding calcium lights can make it, and no
more dazzling place for the disposal of eyo-opon-ers
and larynx-lubricators is to bo found in all
New York. In short, tho (3 rand Hotel is tho
nearest approach wo have yet made in that lino
to Parisian perfection.
Opposite the Park
from the office window at which I dally sit and
;writc, I command a full view of City Hall Park.
A very vivacious view It Is. There is always
something going on there. To-day it is a mad
dog, to-morrow a madder bull. At noon a plug
ugly assaults a gentleman, is badly beaten by
bim, and lgnominlonsly forced to retreat. At
dark two apple-stand women engage in riot and
are hustled off to the Tombs. Within cyc
gllmpse of me sits "Aunt Maggie," a notorious
seller of newspapers and frequenter of police
courts. Not very far off appears the Cement
Alan, whose unctuons aj" ""ince bespeaks hlin
tho possessor of a snuL' 'i eucy. In imme
diate proximity comes i c Landless montrosity
with the crimped-up arms, who cuts wood up
Into shavings and has his hat ready for stray
pennies. unco in awnue a runaway
horse dashes into the narrow extrlcacics
of Nassau street, like a desperate hero rendered
reckless by failure. As for drunken men and
drunken women, in the last decrepit stages of
drunkenness, they are of too frequent occurrence
to awake the slightest comment. Processions
through the park a Fenian procession, or a
butchers' display, or a firemen's parade or
tailors' demonstration occur regularly every
Monday. If I were an invalid to whom a little
healthful excitement and a constant variety
were recommended, I should certainly have a
email office opposite the park, provido a suUl
ciont quantity of lorgnettes and field-glasses, and
take long looks at the kaleidoscope provided for
me there by New York human nature. Variety
may fall occasionally in other localities of
Gotham, but you are certain to find it "opposite
the park."
And this romlnds me that the latter half of
yesterday afternoon was devoted to the celebra
tion in the park of the
Cuban Anniversary.
The real anniversary was of course on Sunday,
but the festivities were postpone until yester
day, when they were celebrated in this city
' simultaneously, I presume, with those in Phila
delphia and New Orleans. The flag of tho
'Lone Star" was hoisted by many private firms,
as well as by several of the hotels. The firing of
the one hundred guns commenced in the park
at half-past four, and shook the panes of glass
. . ... . 1 1 i . . .
in tue raiue-paiea oia uuuuidks in mc eastern
side of the park until they nearly fell m splinters
from the sashes. The portion of the park be
tween the old City Hall and tho new Post Ofllce
was crowded with lookers-on, who ran hither
and thither, and gave the large open space the
appearance of an immense stage thronged with
ill-disciplined supernumeraries. The balcony on
the south side of the old City Hail was stuck
full of observers, the bright toilettes of the
feminine majority of whom were beautifully
picked out against the black background of
their masculine escorts. Various national airs
were played, but I regret to say the music hall
element was perceptible, and "Columbia, tho
Gem of the Ocean" had hardly ceased its strains,
when the vast auditorium of tho park trembled
with the reverberations of "Tommy Dodd!
Tommy Dodd!" Nor did tho celebration pass
off without an accident, for long ere the comple
ment of the one hundred guns was complete,
ne of the gunners, named Andrew Munn, who
Was loading with frightful rapidity, had his right
arm shot oif. The poor fellow who has a wife
and children; it is only to such people that such
accidents happen had been repeatedly cau
tioned by a bystander; but he was working
under mad excitement, and sacrificed a limb to
his imr rudence.
The Tribune Handings
are to come down next year, and it is believed
by the .credulous that something inimitably
grand lsto go up in their place. Never, J say,
while Horace Greeley Is the presiding genius.
He has not worn bis shirt open at the bosom, a
white coat, trowaers six Inches Bhort, and pock
ets bulging with the contents of the mall
ba ,'s, for these many years, to be brought to that
at last. Such an uncanny form as that was
never meant to do the business of lifo in an
architecturally beautiful building. You mi ght
- - I 1 Jl I L .11
as well give mm a peari-nuuuieu peuuuiuur auu
expect copper-plate penmanship of him as tho
natural result. Mr. Greeley regards the present
tw7 buildlnes us the ne plus ultra of archi
tectural art, and would break his heart if they
ero superseded.

"OTnrtbn" br live rnrepa-nona Tronpe.
"House crowded from ptt to dome" is often seen
upon the huge posters which stare at us from dead
walls and brick piles much oftener, In truth, than
the facts will warrant. But the Academy of Music
last evening presented a scene which fully realized
the ideal jam. Every seat and every foot of stand
ing room were oecnpled. It Is barely possible that
the expectation of witnessing live bears and other
spectacular monstrosities upon the stajre had some
thing to do with the crowded stato of the honse, but
the programme for theevenlng Included Flotow's
delightful and delicious opera of Martha, which
appears to take a firmer hold upon the
favor of the - public with each and every
repetition. It Is unquestionably one of the
brightest and briskest; pieces In the whole lyric re
pertoire, with a plot that Is absolutely unobjection
able and a score that abounds In delicate and pleas
ing melodies. With the exception of Madame Parepa
Itosa In the part of "Lady Harriet," and Mr. O. P.
Hall In that of "The Sheriff," tho cast was one
with which the people of this city have long been
familiar, Mrs. 8!guln appearing as "Nncy," Mr.
Castle as "Lionel," Mr. Campbell as "Plunkett," and
Mr. Scguln as "Tristan." It is only necessary to say
that each participant did full Justice to his or her al
lotted part, the whole performance being
characterized by an even and flulslicd excel
lence. Madame Parepa-Kosa appeared to excel
lent advantages far as her sluglng was con
cerned, and even acted with much spirit
and archness. She sang "The Last lioso of Sum
mer" with such exquisite grace that the enthusiasm
of the audience stepped beyond the limits of deco
rum, and became for the time actually boisterous.
The part of "Nancy" Is one of Mrs. Seguln's most
attractive roles, and she was as captivating in It as
wo have ever seen her In the past. A special effort
was made to render the Fair Scene at Richmond
especially attractive, and it was satisfactorily suc
cessful, although the monkeys were wanting and tho
bears were rather dull, and eventually dead failures
when stripped or a portion of their disguises by a
mishap. The Punch and Judy show, however, was
"all that could be desired," and the general appoint
ments altogether more attractive than such as wo
have been accustomed to.
"Home" at tho Chesnut.
A large audience was in attendance last evening
at the Chesnut to witness the first representation of
Robertson's comedy of Ilome. This piece is dis
tinguished by all the characteristics of this writer's
style a neatly-constructed plot ; crisp, bright, and
pleasant dialogue, and a well-sketched blt1c3 ;of
characters, in whose fortunes we are expected to
feel an Interest. Mr. Robertson has a keen apprecia
tion of character, and, common-place as some of his
personages are, he rarely falls to mark their Indi
viduality very plainly, while In nearly all of his
pieces there are at least one or two vigorous and
life-like creations that indicate a power scarcely yet
developed. The trouble with all of Robertson's
plays, however, Is that they are too slight and sketchy,
both in plot and characters. It Is certainly an
error, on the right side, to leave the audience on the
fall of the curtain wishing for more ; but we cannot
avoid a regret that a playwriter f such evident
ability does not attempt something more than dra
matic sketches. The comedy produced last evening
at the Chesnut is an adaptation or a French drama,
by M. Emile Augler, entitled L'Aventuriere; but the
English writer, while he has appropriated the central
idea, lias changed the accessories and altered the
tone of his drama, so that It may fairly be called a
new piece.
The plot turns upon the efforts of a female adven
turer to gain possession of the fortune of a rich old
gentleman by. inducing him to marry her.
She has established herself with her brother in the
house, and has almost succeeded in her desires,
when a son of the old man, who had been driven
away from home some years before, on account of
some youthful indiscretion, returns under an as
sumed name, and finding out how matters Btand, de
termines to save his father. He enters the house as
a stranger, and sets to work to engage the affections
of the adventuress. He succeeds In his object, and
then the real art or the dramatist is shown when the
woman, brought to bay, appeals for the sympathy
and respect of her enemies. She throws oil the mask
entirely, and appears before them as a suffering
woman who is at least entitled to their pity, aud re
fusing all pecuniary recompense for her matri
monial disappointment, she shows that her
mo lve in enteilng the house has been less the desire
to obtain wealth and position than to find peace,
respectability, and a home. She had determined, If
successful, to do all in her power to make her hus
band happy, and her conquest had bgen due alone to
the real affection which she had conceived for the
son. She leaves the house amid the respectful sym
pathy of the family, and the profound regret of the
son that his triumph had been purchased by such a
sacrifice on her part.. In "Mrs. Pinchbeck," tho ad
venturess, the outliue Is given of a first-rate acting
character that really deserves more elaborate treat
ment than the author has bestowed upon It. The
outline is well filled up by Miss May Howard, who
plays with a fine appreciation of the require
ments or the part, and by the decided
coloring she gives to the sketch proves
herself to be an actress of very marked ability. The
next best part Is that of "Captain Mountraffe," the
brother of the adventuress, and this certainly does
not receive justice at the hands of Mr. Mordaunt,
who dresses the character well, but acts it very in
differently. The remaining personages afford but
little opportunity for the performers to distinguish
themselves, and It is sufficient to say that they are
very creditably represented as follows: "Alfred
DorriBon," who appears under the name of "Captain
John White," by Mr.. Sheridan; "Mr. Dorrlson," by
J. 11. Jack; "Bertie Thompson," Mr. W. H. Otis;
"Lucy Dorrlson," Miss Josephine Laurens; and
"Dora Thornliough," Mrs. T. A. Creese.
1oms is not equal to Cante, or even Ours, but it Is
a rellued, elegant, and entertaining piece, that In
telligept people can listen to with pleasure. The
conclusion of tho second act, where "Mr. Dorrl
son" finds the supposed "Colonel White" making love
to the handsome widow, and the son Is com
pelled to declare himself, and to explain the reason
for his disguise, presents a fine dramatic situation ;
and the Jhird act, where the discomfited adventuress
reveals her real character, Is very effective.
The piece Is well acted, and it Is placed upon tho
stage with great care and good taste. The scene
does not change during the three actsi so that there
is not much chance for display; but such scenery as
there Is is good, and the costumes and accessories
are elegant and appropriate.
