New Yoiik, March 21, 1870.
Mrribrrrlrn nn Hrondwnr.
Thero they ure, cool, crlmmin, throat-alluring,
perched and arranged enticingly la little bakeU
and amid preen leave. They plow from behind
tho platc-nlass of Taylor's and other larj;o
fashionable saloons, and present a temptation
that Is above and beyond ull reason, theso first
delicious pickings of tho gowufranaria. At tho
low price of (mo dollar per backe t tho poor porno
logical epicure may eat six mouthful", of straw
berries, and have just enough to give appe
tite a finer edge.
Thr "Itlnrk Domino."
The public was very much, disappointed on
Tuesday night. It rushed to the Academy of
.f uslc expecting to witness tho Black Domino,
which hud bocn elaborately announcod. Upon
arriving, the handbills Informed it that owing to
the impossibility of completing the preparations
H was postponed, and that Fra Dlavolo would
bo substituted. Now Fra JHavolo is a light,
pretty opera, but the audience was not disposed
upon that occasion to bco the prtttiocss of it.
Half tho people went away; tho opera dragged;
Mr. Castle did not seem to please, although he
never lisped more liquldly; the intermissions
wore designedly long to protract the entertain
ment as late as eleven; not a single encore was
demanded. The critics and the connoisseurs
hobnobbed together and pronounced the affair
a fraud. Oue disconteutcd critic (who can't get
his contributions accepted by Punchinello) said
t was '"Fraud Diavolo."
Anronos of Punchinello, let me confidentially
advise Philadelphia funuy people that it pays
live dollars per column for proso and ten for
poetry.
Hievrrtrt'a Completed Htore.
The completed store of Mr. A. T. Stewart will
l)e oicned on Monday. The scalloldiug and
pent-houses which surrounded tho new addition
at tho southeast corner of Ninth street and
Broadway were pulled down yesterday, and tho
remainder of the week will bo occupied In fur
nishing the interior. The completed structure
is to he bounded by Tenth street on the north,
Ninth Btrcet on the south, Broadway on the
west, and Fourth avenao on the cast, and forms
a most superb monument to the Genius of
Money-making. Survey this imposing building
by night, when the full moon it. shining upon it,
and the hour is sufficiently late for tho struggle
and rour of Broadway to have subsided for tho
time being, and you have au exquUite architec
tural effect, which would bo romantic if tho
trade-mark were not to indelibly stamped
upon it.
The Soaring Moroni.
The Sorosisls getting old enough to be treated
with some show of respect. It has just cele
brated its second anniversary. It endures when
feminine associations of sterner pretensions have
melted away. Where is the Woman's Suffrage
Association ? And what lesson does the suec.es
of Sorosis teach? That stockings, and not
stocks, are the proper sphere of woman ? That
the "yoke" which sits most gracefully upon her
is the one which Is related to gussets and bunds ?
I will not commit myself by saying this, but I
will ask whether the Sorosis flourishes because
it has more strength than Woman's Suffrage
Associations have, or because it is too weak for
any one to take the trouble to crush ? Perhaps
the velvet voices of the literary ladies who
mainly compose it are too feeble to invite an
opposition which the huckaback intonations
(to carry out the simile) and "crash" principles
of the strong-minded women lure to their own
speedy destruction.
Mpfde Payment.
There are two ways of telling whether a man
has been drinking in Now York. If his breath
smells, that is quite sufficient proof of his
crapulous tendencies. If he has specie about
him, assurance is doubly sure. The practice" of
giving specie in change to those who purchase
drinks is growing in lavor witn Dar-Keepers and
tavern proprietors.
A Triangular Brdlaui.
There is a certain little triangular spot in New
York where something new, night and day, Is
continually going on. l believe there is no
other spot in all New York where a crowd is
ooncr collected or dispersed. You look one
moment and sec a grey-colored waste of paving-
stone, over which a few pedestrians hurry, not
nough to give it life and character. Yon look
again, and see a crowd which has arisen as
rapidly as a ripple on a lake. This triangular
Bedlam is thus situated: It is bounded on the
south by tho Daily Times building and branches
off into two streets known as Nassau street and
Park How; to the north it branches off into Centre
and Chatham streets; on the west it is bouuded
by rails of the eastern limit of City Hall Park, and
the fruit-venders' stalls in the vicinity; on the
East H is hedged In by the Tr ibune, the Sunday
Times, the Sun, the New, French's Hotel, etc.
Every itinerant showman, with a hand-organ,
monkey, or a dancing-bears, makes that his van
tage-ground. There wagons filled with hides
' 6hift their loads; there blackguards bully and
drunken men defy the police; there tho cclo
brated armless Individual whittles sticks w ith a
knifo held in his toes; thero the almost-ecmally
celebrated cocoanut woman proves that her
heart is as hard as her cocoanuts with all tho
milk squeezed out, and wallops her drunken
liusband for the delectation of the passers-by.
It is emphatically a gay old corner. On windy
days, within its bouuds, the air is filled with
rumpled petticoats and the ground palpitates
with blown-off hats. Upon that arena, too, you
catch sight, from time to t' me, of most of the
newspaper men great and small of New York,
for it U the vestibule to all the newspaper offices,
of any Importance, and during the twenty-four
hours the whales and minnows f journalism all
to napping by.
"Answers to Correspondents."

ClOU, lb IB UiV uouoi mny iiir ivia. uunaynpvia,
dallies and weeklies, ate more annoyed with
questions sent in by correspondents who expect
answers to them than any other papers in tho
country. If I had the answering of them, I
think I should define my position, and give it
to be distinctly understood what questions I
would consent to answer and what decline.
And since these hints may possibly prove of
some avail to Philadelphia readers who con tern
ulate applying to newspapers for the solution
nf nrobloms which a little research would
easily enable them to solve for themselves, por
bans a few insinuations would not be out of place
here. In the first place I should shut down
upon all such questions as to how grey hair

Tliat, my dear Evening Telegrapher, belongs
to the class ot dilapidated queries that have been
' ' nuked over and over again. Then as to wans,
and how they might be removed, I should sys
tematically refuse to let In one ray of llghtupon
that mystery, for it is one which has been Illu
minated time out of mind. Corns and bunions
would share the same fate with me; and I should
flout with disdain tho questioner who should lay
before me the subject of freckles, or ask mo
what kind of meat was moHt nourishing to the
brain. I think after a whllo my correspondents
would send mo original questions or cease send
