New York, March 8, 1870.
Mr. Ferhter.
By this time I presume all rhlladolphla
has bad Its fay on tho acting of Mr. Charles
Fochtor. I shall await with anxiety the arrival
of Tub Evenino Telegraph, In ordor to form
just Idea of what tho verdict of Intelligent
frltlclsm there is. Tho plain truth abont hi in
In New York is that he puzzled the critics and
tho actors. Professional writers upon the foot
lights and professional actors behind them
were divided into factions, one affirming that ho
was the most eminent artist of the age, one that
ho was the most fraudulent, and it is hard to
say which faction at the present date is the
strongest. A bashful critic at the Hub says that
New York gave hi in mcmbors and that Boston
Cave him brains. This blushing and embar
rassed hlut as to the real state of affairs cut ns
Golhamltcs to tho core. What has Philadelphia
given Mr. Fechter ? Both members and brains,
I hope. J regard him as a sort of refined and
spiritualized Bowerylsm the kind of Bowerylsm
they might provide for sensuous angels in some
intellectual heaven. I forglvo his accent, and I
don't mind his wig. He might almost wear a
red one, without detracting from whatover
artistic merit there may be in his performance.
The fault I have to find with him is that he is a
sensuous actor, not an intellectual one. What
does TnK Evening Tkleokai'ii think?
Tea In l.rnt.
Cewpcr never said a falser thing than when
he wrote about tho enp that cheers but not Ine
briates. A London chemist has just manufac
tured wine from tea, but I do not assert that
anybody has a right to carp at this, since wine
was made from water as far back as the marriage
in Cana of Galilee ! However, I presume this is
hardly the same kind of tea which fashionable
Now Yorkers drink in Lent. Of course you aro
aware that in no city in the Union are Lent
observances so rigorously kept as in this city of
New York. Metaphorically speaking, fashion
abandons cosmetics for the chrism, and becomes
decent and dutiful instead of remaining decol
lete. She don't go out, except to church. 8he
don't receive visits, except informal ones. If
gentlemen drop in in the evening she regales them
with tea. Nine-o'clock tea is one of the Lenten
institutions of Gotham, and the Institution has
spread more this season than any other. Thin
bread-and-butter is sometimes added, and the
subject of salvation is discussed over sandwiches,
and the Te Deum kept upon the tapis to an
extent which is tea-diou
fanny llabnrt.
Have I ever said anything to yon about Fanny
Hobart ? I ought to have done so, if I have
not. She is one of the nattiest and sprightllest
lady-writers connected with the New York
press. Hitherto some of the best things she
says have been necessarily associated with de
scriptions of fashion; but to mention her as a
mere fashion-writer would be to do great in
justice to her exquisite and original humor, her
droll and genial conceits, the loving kindness
of a large and sympathizing nature, the joyous
bubbliags-np of perpetual wit and good temper.
For several yoars she has contributed one article
a week, entitled "The Womau's Kingdom," to
one of the most prominent of the New York
Sunday newspapers. The article is, it is true,
a resume of all that is new in the world of
fashion, but the work of making such a resume
is lifted ud out of the bauds of feminine Jcn-
klnslsm in which it too long reposed, and made
to blossom forth in a sparkling essayet, in which
all that is necessary to be said about the fashions
is said, but is made subservient. to strings of
amart and singular thoughts, generally tunny,
sometimes poetical, often full of irresistible wit.
Mrs. Hobart likewise writes stories for children,
many of which, I believe, appear in some Philu-
delDhla publication. The little ones and the
big ones, for that matter who have been in
tereeted in them, will be glad to learn that she
has a face like a Madonna in social life, bine
beaming eyes, hair aureated by the natural tinc
ture known at sunshine, and that her manners
Are in exact correspondence with the faultless
freedom of her literary style.
Ball-Uoara Bnble.
. At some of the balls which have recently been
given, special accommodations were made for
ladies accompanied with babies. Strange as the
Announcement may seem, it is literally true.
One large room was changed into a nursery, and
provided with cradles and cribs, so as to look
more like a foundling hospital, or the infant de
partment of aa orphan asylum, than anything
-else. The other night a part of young men by
some means obtained admission to tho baby de
partment of the ball, and set themselves to work
at changing the babies. No less than fifty in
fants, between the ages of four months and four
years, were chauged in as many seconds, and
the party made their escape Just as the anxious
mothers, fresh from the triumphs oi the Uer
man, were making their way to the nursery to
visit and refresh their 'tootsy-wootsies. ' Bucn
a scene as took place! Such a tnruing down of
the right counterpaues, and turning up of the
wrong cherubs! It was a great transtormatlon
scene, better than that of the Twelve Tempta
tions i that spectacle of low-necked Rachel
weeping for their chauged children. The wails
of the cherubim rose above the swell of the
orchestra; but I am glad to be able to add that
the proper babies found their proper mothers In
good time.
Itr. Thompson's CongrearUlen.
At the service on Sunday morning Dr. Thomp
son, who preaches at the Broadway Tabernacle,
" said a very good thing, which caused a smile to
overspread the features of his fashionable nock.
It was to the effect that at the next sociable
held by his church gentlemanly ushers would
be in attendance, whose olllce It would be to
introduce members of the coutrregatlon to one
another. It Is what the "flock" greatly needs.

GENERALITIES.
Lrlte-r from Horbeforl.
The following letter from M. Kochefort ap
pears in the MarsvxUaise:
My Dear Friend: -It you have not received
mv article, it is solely because the Prefect of
Police, In contempt of all law, thought proper
- to confiscate tuai literary property, leu mm,
then, that I 'have a flue Louis XIII clock ai
tome, aud that there Is uo reason why he should
pot take that aino. up to me present, impri
soned journalists have been allowed to send
articles to the papers. It is true they were not
representatives ot the people, it is not euougn
to Incarcerate prisoners; they mum be starved.

tirely by my work, and tbey withdraw

sourcrs as a writer. I do not belong, like
Mad'lle Hortense Schnolder or M. Emllo Olli-
vlor, to the household of the Viceroy of Hgypt.
A prudent revolutionist should always keen a
Turk for the last. If I dared. I would ask the
Fmperor to allow me to enter tho workshops of
Pelaiiloto make list slippers with the other
prisoners. I have heard that by working for
fifteen hours a powerful man may make five
sous a day. But could I obtain this permission?
I have so many enemies at the Tuilorlos. No
matter; if the first circumscription is not satis
fied with the manner ln-wntch its representative
is treated, It must be hard to please.
Poetical Politician.
A lively little tilt took place in tho Cali
fornia Anembly b twocn Mr. George R. B.
Hayes and Mr. Martin, of Butte, when tho Mer
cantile Library bill came up on Its final passage.
The latter took tho ground that the bill was
unconstitutional. Mr. Hayes went after his op-
ponint, burlesquing his legAl knowledge in a
refreshing style, and comparing him to Mr.
Hagar of the Judiciary Committee of the Senate.
This was voted a decided bit, and brought down
the House. Mr. Martin, aftor recovering from
the effects of the shock, invoked the aid of tho
Muses, HmA "got off" tho following as Mr.
Hayes opinion of himself:
"Illi pole seems of the sturdy oak,
Ills line a cable that never broke ;
lie baits his hook with tiers' tails
And sits on a rook and bubs for wholes."
And the following at the public opinion of
Mr. II ayes:
"Ills pole is of the peacock feather,
His line Is of the finest leather;
lie baits his hook with mites of cheese,
And rests on the bank and bobs for fleas."
This had the effect to close the debate, and the
bill passed.
The card of the chairman of the New Hamp
shire Democratic State Committee, denying the
charge of "infidelity to the party," appeals to
the Democracy to bring home their absent
voters, and to rally at the polls; but It docs not
urge them to vote for Goneral Bedel.

Continued from the Third JSditinn,
As to the merest imputation of a sordid con
sideration in the matter, the men who made it
wt.u'd uot only have to break down his (Voor
hees') reputation, but would have to assail a man
who for forty years in the service of his country
bad never hud the breath of slander to tarnish
his fair fame. The House has recently been
engaged in expelling some of Its members. For
the newspaper press and the newspaper re
porters as a class he had a very high respect,
aud bad a personal regard for many of them,
but if the sluice-ways of calumny were to be
thus opened by irresponsible men connected
with the press, the next expulsion that would
be' in order would be the expulsion of the
slanderous and calumuiatlng reporters from the
galleries.
Mr. Lofran, Chairman of the Committee oo
Military Affairs, remarked that there had been
