New York Flasa
are as Industrious as g ld. They aro continually
goinir up and coming down, and as with gold
no one appears to exactly understand the reason.
Every other morning, at an early hour, you soe
the national flags upon too tops of public build
ings In a state of fluctuation, and one who reads
them aright would, I supposo. detect In thera
the history of national, Biato, and civic doaths
and celebrations. They are certainly always on
the move.
The Nobby Note Masticator.
Not many months ago a paragraph was copied
from a foreign paper purporting to give the ad
ventures of a thief who stole diamonds by means
of his tongue, aud might bo said to bo perpe
tually tuning the sweets of his profession. His
plan was to examine atrayful of precious stones,
holding them very close to hU eyes, under pre
tence of being near-sighted. This brought them,
of course, very near to the mouth, so that at any
moment, when the jewollcr's eyes wore averted,
the thief could protrude his tonguo aud fork the
treasures Into the oral cavity. This plan suc
ceeded admirably for a long time, but at length
the thief met his match lu a detective who had
once been all but foiled by a similar miscreant.
Something like this has been attempted In our
moral little neighborhood of Newark. New
York and the Bowery, however, have the honor
of claiming him lor their own. Finding himself
in that virtuous little suburb, he weut into a
grocer's, made a purchase, and was hmded In
change one five-dollar bill and several smaller
ones. He deliberately counted the change
over, and then informed the astonlshod grocer
that it was five dollars short. VVhothcr the
grocer had seen the manoeuvre by which tho
deception was accomplished, or whether he had
been served so onco before, is not known, but
his suspicions were awakened. He attacked the
Bowery youth, forced his jaws open, and dis
covered the five-dollar bill he had given him
crumpled into a little ball and btowed away In a
hollow tooth I People generally prefor having
their teeth plugged with gold, but the Bowery
boy evidently preferred greenbacks. He was
arrested and sent to prison, and during the
examination be was confronted with several
parties who claim to have been similarly vic
timized by him.
The Rlsloy Hpanlnh Troupe.
The Andsluslan brunettes have arrived. Tho
females are as beautiful as though they had
teen made to order expressly for the Tammany,
The males unite the best qualities of Ajax and
Yon Homme. I am expressing myself not ac
cording to my own lights, but according to the
spirit of the advertisements which lie in waiting,
Tho troupe has one fault, howevor it boasts no
letter-writer. There Is not one of them that has
ever written a letter to a newspaper. This fault
will, however, soon be remedied. One of the
first things that Blondism did, when its popu
larity threatened soon to be on the wane, was
to get in a row with some one and blaze away
in "cards" to the newspapers. That was one of
the most fertile sources of popularity. The
"cards" came out and the audiences went up.
Of course, brunettlsm will follow up this path.
Enough of the aroma of blondism lingers around
the Tammany to furnish at least one letter
writer capable of putting Into Eogllah sufll
ciently good for the Herald the grievances of
Andaluslan ballererias. The letters will be
forthcoming all in good time. The first night of
the brunettes is all but identical with that of the
blondes. Let us gird up our loins and watch the
fight.
Air. Parstoe'e Bnnch of Fives.
Why do actors invariably insist upon settling
their private disputes in a public manner? Why
do the male ones so often haunt lobbies, billiard
saloons, and the fronts of theatres and hotels,
in wait for the ignoble offenders who have so
long eluded them? I dou't know why, except
it proceeds from a marked love of notoriety.
Pnbllcltv becomes meat and drink to them. Off
the stage they imagine themselves behind the
footlights still, and act in such a way as to con
centrate upon them the eyes of the public. Aro
they not sensitive beings, and does not their
constant openness to public criticism foster in
them a sickly craving to be talked about? I
think that is what is tho natter with them
generally, but I hope that Is not what is the
matter with Mr. rarsloe, who lately used his
bunch of fives so demonstratively in front of the
Metropolitan Hotel. was the. I believe, he
met with Frauds Kea, who bad offended
Mm, and whom accordingly he dealt a
fist in the toco. U it had been in the dark Mr.
Kea might hav excused Mr. Parsloo's having
foraffihed him with the means of seeing a "hand
before him," bat since the affair happened In
broad daylight and Broadway light, he resorted
to the law for redress. The sequel was that Mr.
Parsloo was arraigned yesterday before tho Jef
ferson Martot Police Court, and required to give
bonds in tbe sum of three hundred dollars. It
is sad to have one's illusions in regard to an
actor's geniality all rudely dissipated. One
moment f ou see the favorite of the public smil
ing and bowing behind tbe footlights, a happy
man and successful artist, rich in the smiles and
applause of a large audience and a more than
respectable salary. The next you see him
stripped of all tbe gaudy humbugs of the stage
and "sent up" like any common criminal. Well,
life 's one long process of disillusion.
The third and last
Hal de la Grande Duchesne
as given last night at tho Everett Rooms. It
was as bad as the last one, both with respect to
those who attended, the quality of the "carry
ings on," and the condition of those that were
carried off. The can-can was danced uutil the
bewildered and tipsy Floras tumbled in heaps,
and the police interfered in spite of the protes
tations of tbe roughs. This will be the last of
these epicene beauties for some time to come
another year.
Oar City Arabs.
The juvenile city Arabs are composed of boot
blacks, newsboys, and all those nondescript
classes of youth who gain their living by vagrant
means, no one well knows how. A good deal of
attention is bestowed upon them just at present
by various kind-hearted people who have both
uoney and intelligence. They are being rescued
from the bad houses where they become Inured
in vices as bad as those they pick up in the
streets. The Children's Aid Society does a good
deal for them in this particular. It provides
them with good plain eating and drinking and
the mtans of making themselves clean. It like
wise furnishes many of them with homes out
West, where some at least of those good old
fashlonel virtues are taught which turn out
healthy-moralled men. And those virtues
surely neei to be inculcated in the most practi
cal and forcible manner possible to ineae oat
tered little waifs, whose memories are stored
with the coarse and dirty teachings of a Bowery
Theatre, and whose minds and hearts are rlvu-
leted with the moral mire which flows free and
full in the streets where they were b -ought m.
But, b'our lady ! I wax moral and hleh-flowa.
Something too much of this. Am Baba..

Vechter.
The following communication to a New Y rk
contemporary is not uninteresting:
To the K'lltorg of the New York Kxprtan: It Is
astonishing bow widely the doctors seem to dilTor
with reference to Kccliter's case. A gentleman of
this city who had written and published In a weekly
journnl tin artlela comnarlng tne two aot.ors, Uooctt
and Frehter, lu their personations of "Uamlet," re
ceived the folluwliij? from a friend lu Philadelphia,
who Is well known umong the literary circles of that
city as a grxcithil writer anl a llnent and forcible
public speaker ft is especially Interesting, when we
remember that the Quaker Oily cnties, with oue ac
cord, denied to Feuluur the pbiMesslou of the least
dramatic ability:
'earDerf 1 have seen Fechtor In Uam'.rt and
aU my being burns with eut,nnlasm. You think me
cold and unliiipassioned, yet us I listened to that
man, all the oik1 lu me, ol thought or feeliag,
seemed winged to a newujo.vm'iit, higher than auy
yet attained, and I wax am.mt lwt to my surround
ings, he so "spelled" m with his genius. Talk of
other actors! Korwoth! 8 far as my opinion
goes, aud it's good to mo at. Inust, it Is waste of
thought to coinpare them. It tooK a Sli.iKespuare to
create, nnd It takes a Feohter to coruprcheud the
creation. What Uinvr.moe, t!nn. In genius? Why,
my dear fellow, others smu it. afar otr, as lu a glass,
darkly; but Fech'or fully, entirely, as face to lacs,
lie alone has caught the music of the thought, as well
as the melody of diction, and I think he must know
the most exquisite Joy when his own Imagination
holds couver.-e with the intuitu ;t uf that mter-mlnd
of the pait which he nl' me eau understand. How
must his nature thrill with every line or word ! Since
his nure utteronco icives 8 gri:nt a joy to oue so cold
as I, what must the full comprehension bo to him?
Shakespeare to-iHy, to me, U really Shake
speare, the genius of all Time, with a might and
majesty I only dreamed of .ve-u rday, and KoeUier
his only lnteroreier to enmrnou minds. Why, Cen
ter knows innatelj wtuit so'iie poor ped-igoufl has
taught the rest. To read precisely, grammatically,
with knowledge of commas and Ht ips,ls good, and
much to be commended In an actor, but to know
lutuitlvely, to cateh nuitiuodvtMy the true lnient add
meaning, to tread with common step9 the same
path of thought, fail of the same Joy,
and then, with nature's own acknowledged
power, to demonstrate to lower minds the
Kiory ana tne beauty or that upper sphere, is so
marked and different a thing that It must flash Us
light Into the darkest Judgment and leave uo room
ioraouut. now could you oo so wean a tnioir as to
compare the mild rush-light or man's making with
the full Blare of nature's touch that waits ou genius,
wnose Riorv elevates, transforms, and cneers an on
whom It shines? How could you, Derf, say?
Yours, John Robs C .
The statement that the Quaker Citv critic
with one accord denied to Feebler the posses
sion of the least dramatic ability is certainly
very far from being correct. Most of them cer
tainly did conclude that he could not play
llanilct as Bhakespearu wrote the character.
but all or nearly agreed that as a melodramatic
actor he stands In the first rauk. V ith regard
to the above opinion, which was obviously in-
tenaea oniy ior tno private eve ot "Ueri. ' we
are inclined to imagine that the writer Is one of
thoce persons described by the dramatic critic of
tno isew lorn Tribune, who only visit the
theatres on extraordinary occasions, and who
thereby mistake tho stuge business that regular
playgoers knows is as old as the hills for the
inspiration of genius.

The gross revenue of the Pennsylvania Railroad
In 1869 was tlT,2M),8U, or nearly twenty-eight per
cent, of the capital and debts of the Company at
the end of that year.
Since IBM the dividends to the Stockholders have
averaged nearly eleven and one-half per cent, per
annum after paying interest on Ms bonds and pass
ing annually a large amount to the credit of con
struction account.
The security upon which the bonds are based Is,
therefore, of the most ample character, and places
them on a par with the very best National securities.
