THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, MARCH 21, 1870. n & w-y orhi a xvx s. From Our Own Correpondent. New York, March 2t, 1370. Mr. nrh'a Blunder. In tho two hundred and ninth stanza of the first canto of "Don Juan," Byron remarks: "For fear some prudish reader should grow skittish, I've bribed my grandmothers review the British," and It is notorious that when this canto was published the proprietors of the Iiritish Quar terly were entrapped into the enormous blonder of coming out with a card solemnly asserting that they had received no brlbo from Lord Byron or "any other man." 1 Quite as ridiculous a blnnder Is that which has. Just beon perpetrated by Mr. Borgh, the celebrated President of the Society for the Pre--ventlon of Cruelty to Animals, In his having brought a libel suit against the New York S wn day Courier for a playful but somewhat coarse bnrlcBquo description of his personal appoarance, habits, and mode of life. Thellbol suit has sub jected Mr. Bergh to Infinitely more ridicule than the libel alono If It was a libel could ever have done, and he has found himself to be afflicted with a greater dogree of cnticular at tenuation than most men who hare reached his time of life. By-the by, I hope the expression "time of life" Is not libellous. If so, yoa may confidently expect that, when tho Sunday Courier business Is settled, there will be a suit brought against The Evening Telegraph. "Punchinello." It is ofllcially announced that Punchinello, the new pictorial and satirical weekly, will positively make Us appearance to-day, and I presume that by the time you are reading this I shall be reading that. It will aim to be witty, humorous, and satirical In its illustrations as well as lu its written matter. If there Is any failure at all it will probably be in the pictorial department. Somehow or other our artists are not so witty as we might wish them to be. We have here in New York any quantity of men who can write smartly, but comparatively very few -who can make their senso of fun serviceable to them as draughtsmen. Unless these sprightly rtlsts are forthcoming, there is little chance that Punchinello will prove to be what runch was, but what it has not been for many a long week. I believe Nast Is to furnish some contri butions. The I-ate Georire WnUemnn. If smart juveuile journalists do not get much printed adulation during their lives, they do directly the grave has closed over thorn. None have better deserved tho respect and commenda tion of the public whom they served than the late George Wakcman, who died early on Satur day morning at his home in llarlem. He was st.ll young, not having completed his thirtieth year, and had half fiuished preparations for a course of public lectures. Without holding a position of great prominence, ho yet filled a very fair field, and transacted many of the more useful duties in a graceful manner. As a maga zitist he was less noticeable as an original writer thin as a pleasing and playful stringer-together of '-he thoughts of others. In some respects, his mind was a literary junk-6hop, stored with all sorts of odds and ends, shelved away in such order, however, that, so to speak, he could find then In the dark and make use of them at any moment. In private life, too, he was a blame less nan, filling his part with a modesty which Is ran indeed in this Age of Cheek. Of late ho was aregular contributor to the Galaxy, where his art and taste as a compiler of curious saws and aphorisms was very happily made use of. The IaM of "Hamlet." Mr. 3ooth appeared, for the last time for the present as "Hamlet" on Saturday afternoon, hav ing plajed the part between seventy and eighty times. 3e will appear to-night as "Sir Giles Overreach," in A 2veu Way to Fay Old Debts, and reicat the character to-morrow and Wed nesday evenings. On Thursday and Friday evening, and at the Saturday matinee, he per forms ")laude Melnotte." How the women will rush to fee that ! I am informed that Mr. Booth is plnk-nted as much as ever by certain ladles, the exprealon ef whose admiration is restrained by no suh trifle as the little fact of his being married toa woman who rejoices in his faithful love. tlajor I.eland' Masher. All the Aorld knows by this time that Mr. George Wilfcjs, editor of the Spirit of the Times, was recently assaulted by Major Loland, and more or less' amaged. In an editorial which appeared in tie Spirit of lh$ Times, when issued last Friday, M, Wilkes darkly intimated that he was biding hi time, and that Major Lei and would discover hat ho would have to settlo yet, and would not b permitted to go tinpunlshed. Whether this liplication has anything to do with what occurid on Saturday night can only, of course, be a tatter of suspicion; bat at 8 o'clock that eveing, while passing through Prince street, neartfereer, after having left the Metropolitan HotelMajor Lcland was attacked by an individual or i very ruman-like appear ance, and who is geitrally believed to be a pro fessional "masher." it any rate, he "mashed" Major Lcland, cut hisipper Hp badly; knocked several of his teeth on and, in the vernacular of the street, "put a lud on him." In return, Major Leland, who is iy no means wanting in personal courage, area our times at the villlan, and endeavored to "be him off." His shots did not take effect, and.be attacker escaped, and his whereabouts is akmknown as Collector Bailey s.
