From Our Own Cbrrtt"Minfc
Nbw York, March 31, 1870.
Youn Mr. Brnnrtt
is this evening to be dinod at Delmonico's by the
Now York Yacht Club. Considering what a bis?
newspaper roau ho Id tUo son of, he figures loss
la jouruulistic mention than any other editor in
the country. At this evening' dinner ho will
be associated with men after hi own heart, and
he will show to advantage. It Is when the
ladles are around that his blushes thicken and his
brilliancy thins. Importuned as ho Is by
wealthy and fashionable mammas to enter soci
ety, and fitted for it as ho lu many respects Is
by his various accomplishments, for Instance,
and tho brilliancy und thoroughness of his edu
cation he is allllctcd In tho presence of a petti
coat with a mauvais honte which no amount of
eelf-dlsclpllnlnff has enabled him to overcome.
And now that he Is nearer thirty than any othor
ago, I fear ho la too old, even with the brazen
ing results of fresh European experiences before
him, to become the unrulllcablo Adonis his
friends would like him to bo.
The Homnnca of the KoMrum
Is found lu the big Incomes whkh successful
lecturesses are said to derive from It the leo
turesref understand, not, as a rule, tho lecturers.
Hiss Kato Field, for instance, Insists that she
made ten thousand dollars last year; and I pre
sume Miss Olive Logan places her earnings in
that direction at an equally high figure. Conse
quently the rostrum bids fair to become next
eoason a greater resort than ever for women. I
know of at least a dozen in this city of New
York who have never yet made their appear
ance in public, but who, misled by the flattery of
friends, practise elocution and calisthenics by
the hour together. I must do the majority of
them the justice to say that they are young,
pretty, and interesting looking, and that they
will probably make tho business pay, not from
any inherent merit, but because It is the fashion
now-a-days to run after Women who Dare.
A Broken Nlnetren-itlllllonalre.
Miss Ellen Gray is the name of the young lady
who a couple of months ago was tho subject of
a card from the British Consul stating that she
was not the heiress to nineteen million dollars,
as had been asserted, and that no instalment of
five million dollars had ever been received at
the consulate for her. By whomsoever the story
was invented, the fact appears to bo that Miss
Gray has a brother who was not troubled with a
great deal of money, and who made a strictly
business use of tho report that his sister was in
such luck. Upon the streugt! of that report he
borrowed a cool two thousand hero, an eight-hundred-dollar-slice
there, and managed to
make himself comfortable on tho credulity
of whoever wus willing to lend,
In expectation of being so spleudidly reimbursed
by the Bister of a niueteen-millioiialre. Like a
sensible worldling, he surrounded himself with
those large and little luxuries of which purple
And fine linen stand as the synecdoche, and lived
beautifully upon his "expectations." The time
camo when the hollow nature of those expecta
tions was made manifest, -and it became patent
to the world that Miss Gray was a broken nine-teen-milllonaire.
Nobody that ought to appears
to know anything about those nineteen millions,
and Mr. Gray's creditors are wondering how
they could have lent so much on the strength of
so little. The only thing about him flavoring of
richness Is the richness of the stories that are
told about him.
Lydla Thompson
is endeavoring to deprecate the storm which she
fears awaits her next Monday night, upon her
rentree at Niblo's, by publishing a long card in
yesterday's World, the only largo dally that will
fcrint these effusions. So far as the public is
concerned she has nothing to fear, for every seat
is taken for that evening and several evenings to
come. Somebody has said that it is the "mag
netism of her presence" that carries joy to tho
bosom of an audience. If "magnetism of pre
sence" is a synonym for legs, I have no doubt
that is the case. Miss Thompson's trouble will
bo, not with the general public, but with that
comparatively small bevy in which the news
papers of New York are contained. To them
she has committed the unpardonable crime of
horsewhipping a newspaper man, and I hardly
think they will be disposed to think any tbo
more lightly of her conduct because, uuder great
provocation, she merely did what she was legally
advised to.
i Illegal Love.
If woman tho magician ! could only roll
two men into one ia some such way us the
prestidigitateur does with the rabbits, how
happy it would be for all parties! So probably
Mrs. Kuhl thought in a dim sort of wuy when a
good-looking German. Cherubluo, LeuUo by
name, came to live with her husband. At any
rate, Mr. Kuhl discovered that if his wife and
Cherubino had not broken the seventh com
mandment between them, they had mashed it
considerably, so as to put it all out of shape.
The result was that Cuerubiuo had to "get up
and git." Mrs. Kuhl, however, got up with him,
and after having been taken back once or twice
by the husband, acknowledged in open court that
she would not tell which of the two she pre
ferred. Truly a tantalizing position for Virtue
to be placed in !
Troubles ol limine Owners.
It is sometimes a fearful tblug to own a house,
particularly if you wish to dispose of it. A
certain ludy who resides on Fiftieth street, in
this city, became tired of the pleasures and
palaces of that neighborhood, and made np her
mind to find a homo or make ono somewhere
else. In passing along Fifty-fifth street she
saw a vacant and eligible house, one of whose
windows presented to view a pi icard bearing
the name Fetrlch or Fatwretch, or something
similarly sounding. Thereupon she ordered the
coachman to drive to Mr. Fatwretch's office,
where she was informed Unit Mr. Fatwretch was
not in, but that Mr. Fatwretch's confidential
clerk teas, and would bo happy to wait upon
her. The confidential clerk turned out to be
very obliging and well-informed, took, at her
invitation, a seat on the box with the coachman,
and was driven to various houses owned by Mr.
Fatwretch, the confidential clerk meanwhile
expatiating on the advantages of each. None
of them suited, however, and tho lady returned
disconsolately home. Tho confidential clerk,
however, was bound to make money, if money
was to be made upon it, so bo presently called
on his own account upon a Mr. John Sexton,
who had houses to Bell ou Forty-eighth street,
iliw he advised of the lady's desires and inten
tions, and informed him that he was authorized
to negotiate. Mr. Sexton referred the matter to
the lady's husband, and was by him Informed of
the pretentious character of tho claims of the
confidential clerk. Mr. Sexton thereupon
treated with Mr. Corregan, a duly-authorized
agent, atd the exchange of tho two houses
was effected. Upon this Mr. Fatwretch's
confidential clerk bad the impudence -as is the
way with confidential clerks to bring a suit
against Sexton. Of course Judgment was given
in Srxton's fuvor, bit the annoyance given to
the ldy In question points a moral to house
o wnt re. Ali Hada.

iKoi fl Answers to Catechisms.
If there are those who think that the edu

when confided to religious rather than secular
n'tthods of instruction, they may And some
thing to shake their views in the following
extract frcm a report furnished by tho Rev.
W. IL Urook field, M. A., uu inspector of Na
tional Schools appointed by the British Gov
ernment: '1 propose to Introduce two answers, copied ver

after the Irksome (and what lrksomeness It must
have been!), the weury, tho reiterated drilling of
lour or Uve years, hulf an hour a (lay in day-school
and Sunday school, produced such answers as the
following to the two quesfons: 'What Is thy duty
towards God?' and 'Wnat Is thy duty towards thy
neighbor?' The nrst answer Is, 'My duty toads God
is to bleed In lilm to ferlng aud to loaf witliold
