TIIE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1870. 5 w n w-y o a. m sitis. JYom Our Own Owrepon(nt. Nbw York, Feb. 4, 1870. "Prlar Artkar Will be PreiMiiii." At the conclusion ot how many Announce ments' I wonder have the above Ave words figured daring the last fortnight! You ennnot pick tip a newspaper without finding that tweak ing lltUc sentence awaiting you at every turn. If you read tho locals you porcclvo that the re porter has taken a "sensation header," so to apeak, and plunged headlong Into the regal ravine. If you turn your attention to the edi torials, the fact annoys you that the editor could not resist the temptation of ringing In some old and chorlshed jokes. Tho writers of clothiers' advertisement and kindred topics lavish their finost elaborations upon njeu d'eeprit the "nub" of which Is the Introduction of tho .royal adolescent's name. It a theatrical agent brings in an advertisement to your paper, tho last word ho "dings" into your ears are 'Trinco Arthur will be present." On Tuesday evening, for the first time, he disappointed the public and failed to come up to time. The opera bouffe audience expected him, but their expectations were vain. For three mortal hours their eyes were nailed to the box set apart for him; but he came not It was tantalizing. It must have been as bad as preparing to suck up a mint Julep and to find your straw filled with flics. But you may depend upon It, the audience was none the smaller for tho announcement; and the performance was at least as well as it ordi narily is. Itelapnlng Fever. . Relapsing fever Is neither a fatal nor a fash ionable disease. It attacks the poor, those who live in squalor, and whose hopes of worldly hap piness are permanently squelched. The doctors say It has been In the city ever since last Octo ber, bnt only within the last fortnight has it prevailed to any unusual extent. It obtains among the tenement-houses and boarding-places known as Starvation Row. It bears some re semblance to typhoid fever, but differs from it In the fact that when the patient is apparently convalescing he is seized with a severe relapse which prostrates him for several weeks. It Is an annoying and worrisome rather than a dan- V geroos disease. The first case known in this city occurred In Bollevue Hospital, and there have been about eighty cases altogether. It is cured not so much by medicine as cleanliness, ' ventilation, good nursing, and good food. Though it Is fond of making the poor its victims, it sometimes sticks its claws into the rich. Yonnjr; Raymond, of the Times, has been giving a lecture entitled "Across the Continent," in which he amusingly relates his visit to Mormondom. Ills personal appenran' '1 manners are prepossessing, and he has i ,onlallty than very young men general know how to make use of. Mr. Ray mond Is scarcely more than a youth, not yet being twenty-two. His friends, of whom he has and deserves to have plenty, please themselves y finding resemblances between him and his talented and lamented father. Ills lecture was delivered in the Eastern Branch of the Y. M. C. A., betoro a largo and eminently well-pleased audience. ' Water Street MUnIou. Suppose, by way of a change, I give you a few statistics in regard to the work done by theWater Street Mission during tho year just elapsed. Its number of meetings tvus three hundred and fourteen; total attendance, twenty-five thousand; number of those who "Roso to bo Prayed for," nine hundred; signed tho temperance pledge, six hundred and fifty; visitors to tho reudlng-room, 6lx thousand; Bibles given out, one hundred and twenty; Testaments, eight hundred; packages of "good" reading, six hundred and seventy; small volumes, nearly one thousand; homes provided for fallen women (during the post six years), fifty. Several houses whose character is such that women of no character live there are visited thrice a week by a missionary lady who reads the Bible to the inmates, and informs them that the mission is ready to help them as soon as they are ready to leave off sin. These good works seem like a few grains gathered from a sandy shore, but in the plan of regeneration, as In every thing else, every little helps. Amusements. Mr. Fox Is trying to play "Aminadab Sleek" at tho Olympic, but he docs not play it well. It is unfair and inartistic to be continually insti tuting a parallel between the conception of one actor and that of another. Still, when one sees a familiar play acted badly throughout, it is in evitable that he should contrast in his own mind the wretched evening he has been spending with former happy hours, when the rolet slipped ro fulgently through the vivifying fingers of actors who were artists. For instance, when hist even ing I saw Mr. Fox as "Auiluadub," Mr. ptudley ' as "Captain Murphy Maguire," Mr. J. K. Morti mer as "Jack Torrens," Mrs. Edward Wright as "Lady Sowerby Creamly," Miss Ida Vernon as "Mrs. Ormsby Dolmalue," and Miss Florence Noble as "Mrs. Torrens," it was quite pardona ble that I should revert to those bright nights at the old Arch Street Theatre in Philadelphia, when th6se parts were assumed respectively by JohnS. Clarke, Mr. Shewell, Mr. Wheatley, Miss Mary Wells, Mrs. John Drew, and Miss Emma Taylor. The business was beautifully dono then, but we didn't know what happy times we were bavin g. Mr. Wheatley, by-the-by, looks old and out of spirits. His wife's recent death weighs heavily upon him, and he has discovered that a fortune of half a million does not necessarily result in happiness. He comes up to town to see Mr. Fechter, between whom and himself he is fond of drawing comparisons, not always to tUe ad vantage of that gentleman. Central Park. A great many improvement, which will be more perceptible when summer shall have como, have been made at Central Park. Excavations have been mode for the Pula'ontological Museum, where the ichthyosaurus, the hadrosaurus, the loolaps, and the equally well-known "restored" animals will be on exhibition. The Meteorologi cal Observatory is in operation; the Zoological Gardens are "proceeding;" a large drinking- fountain is being erected for horses; the Children's Cottage Is comploted, and so is the Labyrinth; and an Astronomical Observatory is "talked of." An Baba. Dinner to Alalor (Jar. ' Maior Ciay. chief of cavalry under General Buell, and a soldier of honorable record through out the war. was recently reappointed, on the recommendation of General Sherman, Sheri dan, and others, ana unanimously connrmea ty the Senate. The ODDortunitv was taken bv the Stetsons, and made the occasion of an elegant dinner last night to Maior Gay, at the Astor House, which was attended by a number of his eld army mends. Lieutenant-Colonel Parsons, of the Artillery, In behalf of his comrades, ore- sented Major Gay with a full-dross uniform, in a neat and happy little speech, and the evening was enlivened with numerous and ant. but thoroughly Informal after-dinner speeches.
