THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 1870. w n OT-Y O R S X S IVX 8. From Onr Own Oorreiipnwinnt. Nw York. April 1, 1870. "Snw It In the Newspaper !" Tbia is a stigma attaching to a number of re spectable Rn(ji n tie main, well-conducted citi zens of New York, who, for having committed some venial peccadillo, or, in somo cases, in spite of not having done anything at all, have their names printed among the calendar of offenders in one of tho small evening news papers of this city to wit, the Evening News. That virtuous nml veracious sheet purports to chronicle crime as the most rapid means of promoting youthful ploty and adult angelhood among the manges. Now it sometimes hap pens that people belonging to extremely respectable families, and who never In their lives did anything dcsorvlng incarceration, have been arrested on false chargus, or, presuming to make their own de fense, havo been summarily put down as tho re sult of a job that was put up. It Is hardly pleasant, a a consequence of being unwarrant ably arrested, to find oneself figuring like a criminal In the public prints, particularly when tho print happens to be such a one as never cor rects mistakes Sensitive men and women, who have been thus unfortunately victimised, have been made to suffer tortures by tho brief pub licity in this manner attached to their names. Beyond the gratification of a morbid curiosity there is no plausible reason why tho lists should be published at all. 1tli'linrl Crnnt White, who Is one of tho mo.it noted literary isms of this city, is angry becauso t he wife of a sub scriber to the Tribune has seen fit to criticise his laU-st essay in the Galaxy entitled "Tho Lease of Hamlet tho Younger." la that ex tremely well-writ ten and ingenious article Mr White m ikes 'Il imlet' twenty years old at tu commencement of tho tragedy and thirty year old at Its conclusion. Now, whether ho is rlgh or wrong is a matter of but littlo importance in the present issue, compared with the right of other people to criticise him and his obligation to remain good-humored under the criticism. But Richard Grant is a cantankerous critic cxtronicly foud of making others toe the mark (especially If they aro blondes aud tho tow is la their hair !), aud not over-addicted to toeing it himself. Amnsempnta. Mr. Fechter is shortly to appear here at the Academy of Music in tho Corgi can Brothers uud as "Obenreizer." Mr. Batcman is talking of investing $300,000 in a new theatre as tho corner of Thirty-fourth street and Broadway. At Wallack's Tom Taylor's new comedy of Men and Acres is to be brought out next week Somebody, in one of tho papers, proposes an lunoceut evening entertainment of ii literary na ure for corner-loafers and vicious youug men in general. By all means, bring in your vicious young men aud let 'em bo enter tained. Tho more literary you aro tho better your vicious young men will like you. A Ke w Sin ill MiiKffeNllonii. In the absence of anything of a piquant and scandalous nature, permit mo to offer a few suggestions to editors, theatrical people, and theatrical-newspaper folks in general. They apply quite as squarely to Philadelphia people of that ilk as they do to the Gotham guild. As the suggestions were developed from my interior consciousness they assumed the shape of rules, and as such I bashfully present them: I. When applying for information to a news paper which supports a column headed "Answers to Correspondents," do not fail to Blgn yourself "An Old Subscriber," or "A Twonty-years' Reader of your Valuabl Paper." This will invest you with originality and indi viduality, and also pre tent claims that will in sure a prompt aud full reply. II. If any question occurs to you which a littlo common sense aud investigation would enable you to answer for yourself, by no means trust to those avenues of information. What are editors made for if not to relieve correspondents of tho necessity of thinking for themselves ? III. If you havo ever had an article accepted and published by a newspaper, consider your self thenceforth part aud parcel of the instilu- tion. Have your letters addressed to you there; euioke your worst pipes aud your best cigars there; aud rebuff any editor who regards your claims as mere sham by pufllng ln his face your meerscliaum. Evince the interest you take in the newspaper's private affairs by usluj the pens, ink, and paper of tho establishment, turn ing over and cutting Its files, rummaging among its new books and magazines, and pouueiug upon every desk that is momentarily vacant. By these means you will render yourself gene rally beloved there, so that Bhould twenty-lour Lours pass without your making your appear ance there will be a universal suspicion of your death. IV. When auy of your articles are rejected, always iuslst upon being told the reason. If Informed that they are trash, do not weakly yield to that oplulon, but labor to prove the contrary. If the editor obscurely intimates that you are an ass, tell him that you are not. This will generally be, found unanswerable. Point out to him all the good points of your com position, aud heap ardeut anthracite upon his bead by making him fuel what an intellectual treasure he has lost. V. If you desire a position that is already held by a competent jourualist, ask for it at once, in a free, outspoken, uuderhanded man ner. This is quite compatible with every wish for tho success of that person somewhere else, and, when he gels to hear of it, will win for you Lis esteem aud love. VI. If by any chance your name should be omitted in a published list of editors furnished by tho journal upon which you are employed, resign your position at once. You can after wards withdraw your resignation, and you will have adopted tUo only spirited way of vlndl eating your dignity. VII. If you are a theatrical or musical critic, and have upon the stage a relative who acts or elngs in a manner indescribably bad, your fine tasto will not of course permit you to lavish en comiums upon him (or her). But that is no rea on why you should not inordinately puff the theatre. Not by no meaus ! VIII. Endeavor to associate as much as pos sible with eminent and distinguished people, To Ibis end apply for the post of "interviewer" upon some dally paper, i lie standing and posi tion thus secured you In society, will bo worth Infinitely more to you than the salary. At least, for the sake of your board aud lodging, I hope so, IX. If you are a theatrical manager or agent, you will find it Indispensable to have a series of "cards appearing from time to time in the prlu cipal newspapers. Upon this account It will be necessary for you to be perpetually quarrelling with some one or other. You will be amply compensated for this, however, by the favor you -will be conscious of bestowing upon your friends tho editors, who are proverbially anxious to cko ont their scanty columns with accounts of green-room squabbles. X. In publishing full reports of prize fights and other Indecencies, Invariably print upon tho opposite pago an editorial expressing unmiti gated abhorrence thereof. This will operate as a salve upon tho outraged sense of tho commu nity, and provo how virtuously you detest tho vices from which you compilo your reading matter. XI. If you are managing editor and have a personal grievance with any one, inform tho public of it in a double-leaded editorial. You will thereby illustrate your liberality and enter prise, and increase tho circulation of your paper. XII. Tho Atlantic cable was Intended only to suggest news, not to give It. You will therefore see tho propriety of amplifying at pleasure, and filling out with tho flesh of fancy tho telegraphic skeletons which it transmits to you. XIII. If you aro an afternoon paper and aro ignominlously shut out from tho Associated Tress, steal from your rival who reaps exclusive benefit by remaining in it. An Bxua. WIWICAL Aftl in t a math;. The City AniiafmgM. At the Academy of Musio last evening a very fair audience in point of numbers was gathered, tho attraction being tho first of tho three farewell concerts to bo given here by Mad'lle Patti. Tho programme was a choice one, and altogether tho performance was enjoyable. Mad'lle Patti sang tho rondo from Sonnambnla, "Ah! nou giunge," in a manner that displayed her remarkable voice to the best advantage, giving also Obor's "Laughing Song;" a bolero, by Mr. Ritter, entitled "Inez," and tho hack neyed ballad, "Comlu' Thro' the Rye," and par ticipating at the close in a quartette from Lucia, with Messrs. Hermanns, Kltter and Squires. Mr. Joseph Hermanns, tho popular German basso, sang several airs in his grand and artistic style: Mr. Theodore Ritter gave somo brilliant performances on the piano, a composition of his own, among others, which was not less creditable in style than in execu tion; Mr. J. F. Prume again captivated the audience by his exquisite performances on the violin; and Mr. Henry Squires sang two or throe ballads and arias in attractive stylo. This even ing another performance will bo given, all tho above artists appearing, but in a change of pro gramme; and to-morrow afternoon, at 3 o'clock, the Patti concert company will make its final appearance. At tub Cheskut tho German "Bioplastic" Troupe and the Laurl family of pantomiuiists will appear this evening. , At the Walnut Air.

And a great deal may be said about a hat. It ia pretty well known that in April, 186H, we went to Kurope. Of course wo took a but: we wore that hat on the passage when, one night, an awful fate befell it. It was in tlio upper berth; a trunk was thore; a lurch of the vessel, aud our hat was crushed. It was a ad-looking bat a melancholy spectacle when we rescued it--looking like a smash-down opera bat; we thrust oar hand in it in despair, but "what to our wondrous eyes she aid appear?" It rosamed its old shapo, hardly the worse for its mishap. We wore it when we arrived in old Europe, and through old Europe. On one occasion, a hot day, it was lying in the or on the opposite eeat; at a station some ladies got in, and one who was not a fairy in weight sut down on our hapless bat; down it went again; agHin did we apply toe restorative, and, like a vessel that pitchrs, it came up again. We landod in this country after seven months' absence ; we stitl wore that bat, and it is st ill good lacking. Wo ought to have mentioned that it was made by Jones A Temple, No. 92;' Cbesnut atroet, who want to purchase it of ns, and put it in a glass case, but no money can purchase that hat. Gojey't Lculy'i Book, February. Yon ake Sens to Get Your Money's Worth. Thia new article aoems to have been submitted to the most rigid and impartial scrutiny. A commission appointed by the American Institute have paid such an offioial ooin- plimcnt to its merits as is raroly vouchsafed by cautious science to any "now thing under the sun." A large pro portion of the loadiHg hotel and restaurant proprietors in New York use it, and urge ita use by others, over their own signatures ; and men eminent in acienoe have volun tarily como forward and indorsed it aa an economic culi nary staple, and as an unexceptional artiole of Jnourish ment for the sick.
