Fnmi Oitr Own Correspondent.
Nkw York, Dec. 11, 1S09.
Mr. IHcFn.rlnnt's Trial.
The approaching trial of Mr. Daniel McFar
land will of course be of extraordinary interest,
so much ao indeed that the by-no-means small
bunch of correspondents settled in New York are
making arrangements with nil the principal
uewspapors in the Union for the writing of
letters and the transmission of special telegrams.
To his friends one of tho first questions that na
turally occurred was, how were the expenses to
bo defrayed. They will amouut to probably
more than $5000. Many witnesses have to be
brought from a distance. Mr. McFarlund himself
Is quite without means. Mr. Amos It. Eno has
' subscribed 9100 toward this amount, and Mr.
Seth B. Hunt bus subscribed $50. During the
trial a good many distinguished people will loom
up, and tho evidence ellcitod will be of a very
curious and interesting kind. Thai may de
pended upon to a certainty. Wc may feel sure
that Mr. Beecher will deliver himself of para
doxical lucidities, and that Mr. Frothlughum
will get off several examples of rhetorical con
tradiction. Besides these, all the constant and
most of the occasional writers for tho Tribune
will contribute their quota, aud Horace Greeley
will figure mistily. If in this early stage of
the proceedings so much that would be amusing,
if It were not deeply tragic, has come to the
surface, there is no knowlug what mysteries
are yet lying concealed beneath the surf of tho
scandal. From the editor -in-chief of tho Tribune
down to the printer's devil, every man In tho
establishment will have a show in the witness
box. Tho foreign editor will break ground
through broken English, nor will tho attesta
tions of the uight editor, Mr. Kauo O'Donncll,
be wholly without interest, even though they be
tinged with phantom-liko obscurity. "Johnny,"
the office-boy (and a very nice boy ho is, too),
cannot be expected to malutulu a total silence
; after having been early disciplined in the teach
ings of frco-lovcism, and the Milesian gcntlo-
nmu wbo tisod to flourish there will perhaps bo
called upon to scttlo any mooted points.
ttlnrrylnir uud Itloriillvina:.
Wicked cynics have a proverb among
themselves to the effect that when you do a
naughty thing you ought not to go and iiiorullxu
over it. It is edifying lo see u limn acting bare
facedly, according to one set of theories, and
''.w'ltfuR barefacedly according lo another, with
out any endeavor to make the iwo extremes of
Li conduct meet. It is precisely this that Mr.
Boechcr has been doing. Both In the chapter
against adultory which he road last Sunday, and
in the leader which appeared in & late number
of the ChriMian Union, ts evident an apparent
effort lo pcture notoriety to his conduct In tho
Richardson business, by the Tory audacity of
lis untiihcsb. 1 ut that piece of reading anl
tb.it place of writlnrr in juxtaposition to his
floundering explanation, and you have the most
extraordinary bit of patchwork that ever be
en me the subject of public gossip.
"Hamlet" and the Ilydrnnllo Ham.
Hamlet was to have boon produced at Booth's
Tlienlre next Monday evening weok, I re-open
my letter lo whisper (In a calligraphic hair
stroke) Into your car that It will be postponed
for some nights, In consoquonr.o of the impoisl
billty of having tho hydraulic ram, which is
UFed in It, in proper working condition at the
date contemplated. "Hamlet" nnd tho hydrau

of the delay, glosnod over as tho postponement
may bo in tho generalities of the street pla
cards. In seriousness, however, the now Ham
let, so far as scenery and the accessories go,
will be very exquisite Indeed, and Mr. Fochter
will anlvo just In fuse to add piquancy to
Mr. Booth's season. Ai.i Bab..
