NswYORK, April 31,1870.
The "Trlbanr's" PrialltT ftHmona.
The Tribune, extremely" fond ol makint;
onslaughts on those whom it considers to be Its
enemies, and of miking charge of ungentle
manly journalism, puts forth an extremely sus
ceptible mimosa sensitiva in the person of Mr.
Oreelsy himself. Those who know nothing per
sonally about this gentleman, but only survey
him from afar off as a shining light upon an
immense elctatlon, find it impossible to believe,
what is literally the trnth, that he is one of the
most morbidly sensitive of men in certain
things relating to journalism. Only the other
day an article appeared in the dally Tim re
flecting satirically upon Mrs. Calhoun, and bur
lesquing a figure of speech used by that lady,
and In which she represented her
self as a warbler tethered to the Tribune
by a string held in the Greellan
hand. The article was exqnlsltcly written so
much better written than the majority of the
editorials in the Times now are that any ha
bitual reader of that journal would instantly
have singled it out as containing unusual merit.
If Mr. (Ireelcy plodding old creature that he
is! bad possessed an atom of genuine wit, or
the capability of appreciating it in others, he
merely would have laughed over that editorial
and thought the writer a "deuced smart feilow"
even had he been his bitterest enemy. As
it was, he was seized with a spasm upon reading
it, and vented his execrations in that piping fal
setto for which his profanity is remarkable. But
ot content with private virulence, he goes to
the extent of attributing the article in public,
In bis own journal, to Mr. Jennings, the husband
of Mies Madeline Ilenriques, and of publishing
side by side with it an extract from a private
Jetter of Mrs. Calhoun's rather complimentary
than otherwise to the actress. A more illogical,
ungcntlcmanly, and foolish piece of business
cannot easily be imagined. It is, however, char
acteristic of the man. Mr. Greeley is no hero to
bis devil-ln-waiting.
The Jjant Dnrheese Hall.
The fourth and last Grand Bal de la Grande
Dnchesse camo off on Tuesday night at the
Everett Rooms, and was more shocking and
outrageons than all the others put together. I
do not believe such "goings on" ever disgraced
the genuine Jardin Mabille, which all of us
have read about and some of ns have seen.
Probably as large a quantity of women never
before met together, on a similar occasion, in
any civilized community, with as small a quan
tity of dress. In addition to the usual dancing
in which busts and legs played a part that is
now understood whenever can-can is mentioned,
there were two individuals who attracted vast
attention, although in very different ways. One
ot these was a young woman who looked like a
"Biddy" determined for once to look tho fine
lady and conduct herself with the mincing man
ners canght up in a boudoir. The other was
an epicene-looking creature whose sex was a
matter of question during the early part of the
evening, and who after being hustled about and
insulted by a circle of flash young men was put
ut of the building. If I were to describe one
wntta of what was said and done this letter would
just never see me light, out come uawcr me
editorial ban "unfit for publication."
Mr. Holland's Benefit.
Mr. Holland, the interesting octogenarian
actor, who preserves his youth to such an un
precedented extent In bis eightieth year as to
be surrounded by a family in comparative in
fancy, is, in about a month from now, to be the
recipient of a monster double benefit, similar to
that which Mr. Brougham enjoyed some nine
months ago. As many of the big stars as hap
pen to be in the city at that time are to take
part In the testimonial, which it is to be hoped
will console Mr. Holland for being left out in the
cold from Wallaek's. Mr. Holland has a won
derful sniff, which no one who has ever heard it
can possibly forget. Vpan that sniff Mr. Hol
land has lived, and lived well, for many a year,
it being the last relic of bit former greatness.
In connection with theatrical matters I might
' mention, for the information of those who re
member little or nothing ef The Magic Flute,
that the space of time Carlotta Patti fills in it is
of the extent of one quarter of an hour. The
real prima donna part is taken by Miss Canlssa,
the little German toubretle, who has grown
plumper and plquanter since her disconnection
with German opera. Still the great interest of
the evening was centred in Carlotta's "reading"
of the two airs, one in the first and tho ether in
the third act, to which her labors for the even
ing were confined. They are, as the reader
knows, exceedingly difllcult, but Carlotta's
voice darts about like vocal forked-lightning in
that staecato sky-land. Her interpretation
affects one like an exceedingly clever impromptu
acrostic or epigram done in music, if such a
thing can be conceived of. It strikes all the
rprings of admiration into flowing, but it does
not touch the heart.
Ulltlng the Bull's Eye.
The Young Men's Christian Association of
Brooklyn, E. D., has at length found an exceed
ingly proper not to say commendable object
on which to bestow its sympathies. In this
progressive era, religion, as well as every other
exponent of human thought and action, has to
grow liberal. The age has produced, among
other phenomena, the serious-minded base ball
club, the evangelical billiard saloon, and the
orthodox ten-pin alley. The amusement which
at present finds most countenance with tho
society above-mentioned is that of archery for
ladles. A party of toxophllltes, numbering twelve
voting ladies, have been contending for a prize, a
gold medal valued at ftlOO. Upon one side tho
medal bears an Inscription that it is presented to
(whoever happens to win) by the Young Men's
Christian Association of Brooklyn for her supO'
riority and skill with bow and arrow. This is
interesting. This is refreshing. It is imbued
with the true spirit of Christianity. It is what
maybe called working in season and out of
season.
Iloboken Jnatlc-e,
There is a certain judge in Hobokcn who
attends the bar of a drinking saloon over night,
and the bar of justice in day time. In tho morn
ing he sentences those whom ho helped to make
drunt the previous evening. It is not every
man who can thus play into his own hands.
Last evening he presided as umpire in his own
groggery over a contest for the championship
of the sho-fly and the cancan, and distributed
the silver cups that were adjudged the visitors
with the same beaming expression of benig
nity with which he is wont to exclaim, "Send
him to the Island !" Ali Bab a.
At Bay City, Michigan, on Thursday night,
the saloons, billiard-rooms, and places of busi
ness, almost without exception, closed at half
past 8 P. M., to give young men of the city an
opportunity to attend the service by the Kef. A.

Horace Vernet.
Horace Vern et was one of the most extra
ordinary painters that ever lived. He was a
living illustration of what Hazlitt understood
as the qualifications necessary to success in
life. His pictures surprise artists as pieces
of cleverness and dexterity, and have won
the admiration of the world. They are the
delight of French soldiers, the boast of people
who talk about common-sense, and prefer
prone to poetry.
If we were called upon to give our personal
impressions of so celebrated and striking a
talent as Horace Vernet's, we should ask yon
to accept conchiHions which do not correspond
with the popularity of no famous a painter,
and which would seem like a depreciation of
bis rank in the world. Hut we are to report
what niotit people have found in Horace
Vernet What they found in him was based
on two qualities that Are conceded by the
most exacting as distinguishing him
among his contemporaries these two quali
ties were certainty and action. He had a mar
vellous executive talent, a positive, untroubled
mind, the vanity of tho typical Frenchman,
the generous and boasting disposition, the
readiness and audacity, and versatility and
vitality of his race, lie is the most illustri
ous of a family which, for three generations
back, gave admirable or clever painters to
France.
Iloraco Vernet was born at Taris on the
Itoth of June, 17'.). His education educa
tion as understood by many people was neg
lected, and as a child he was abandoned to
his natural tendencies; crayons and brushes
were his first toys, and he made drawing,
anatomy, and perspective his chief study.
At the age of thirteen he was so clever with
his pencil that he was able to support himself.
Before he was twenty he became connected
with an illustrated paper, and developed a
talentjor caricature, lie wished to enter the
French army, and his father gave him a wife
to keep him from his purpose. At twenty,
with one hundred dollars for his sole fortune,
he was nlarried.
In 180!) he exhibited his first picture, and
from that time until ms death he executed,
witn a rapidity which astonisned -so many
people, the works which are widely known
as a part of the glory of France, and which
have made him the master battle-painter of
the world. He was honored with medals and
decorations by all the crowned heads of En-
rope. If visitors to his studio wished to see
these royal favors, he would tell his valet to
bring the box which contained them, tumble
them out on the table, a dazzling and glitter
ing heap. "Here," he would say, "is a pile
of parchments, ribboned and sealed, which
confer a crowd of privileges that I have for
gotten!"
Horace Vernet said he "was bora and had
lived under a happy star. Married at twenty,
my whole fortune was but one hundred dol
lars. I commenced with drawings, and I
have ended with pictures that have given me
millions of francs, which have goae out of my
hands, but where L cannot tell.
Horace Vernet was a little man, with the
face of a soldier. His body looked frail, and
yet it served him well in his campaigns. But
he was hot feminine in any respect. Nothing
affected his bedy, nor troubled his mind. He
was an indefatigable and wiry man. He saw
and passed through everything unto-aob.ad.
He o luvat nnanected as an
agate; from Russia like a piece of steel
climate and disease seemed to have no hold
upon him. He was like a "Mephistopheles"
in the world of Art and Nature. He under
stood everything; he carried the form of
things in bin mind's eye; he left
tbe bloom and the charm, because it
bad never penetrated his being. It is said he
could be any character of the active world;
that he was a buffoon, an officer of the
French army, a diplomat, a boasting gallant,
a companion or Kings. lie would tell stones
to the despair of Paul de Kock, and he be
Iieved bis memoirs would show more of esprit,
if less of style, than Chateaubriand's. lie
was a skeptical, illiterate, talkative, irrepressi
ble man of tbe world, liis i rench is said to
have been strange, raw, animated, and jocose,
Like Rubens, he was made ambassador, and
intrusted with public affairs, and he lived
like a prince. He had a way of setting people
. i - e 1.2 i ir
ai ease; ana oi making menus, ana cnang.
icg them, with as little compunction as he
would change his clothes.
His pictures are of all sizes, and Rubens
alone presents an example of equal facility
and rapidity of design. He has been com
pared with certain modern journalists, who
have promptitude and prolixity, nut no ideas,
and no charm of expression. His merits are
these: an admirable and spirited draughtsman,
inexhaustible invention, an eye that never
lets anything salient or characteristic escape
it. He rendered costume and action and char.
acter with positive and vigorous effect. Among
his most famous pictures, we mention the
following: "Judith and Holofernes," "Abra
ham and 11a par, "Raphael and Michael An
oelo at the Vatican," and the "Battle of the
Smala," at Versailles. He was so popular, so
close to the French taste, that, when Algiers
was occupied by the French troops, a whole
gallery was set apart at Versailles to comtae
m orate the achievements of the army;
and Vernet, besides painting the taking
of the Smala, the largest canvas in the
world, painted a number of smaller pictures
illustrative of the war. He was offered the
ns erase bv Louis Philippe and declined it.
Horace Vernet belonged to the second class
of great painters. A man of cold intellect,
devoid of the poetic sense, apparently un
moved by the mystery and ignorant of the
subtlety of things, he lived to celebrate the
military glory of France.
The subjects treated by Horace Vernet, the
colossal scale on which he painted, wore
sufficient to appeal to tho most assailable
and common tastes of a people. A
love for military clorr. for the magnifi
cence of action when allied with all the trap
pings and material of war, is the most uni
versal subject ot interest to tno worm, lie
had his troubles, but be never cried over
them. When, in 1822, the Government re.
fused to admit his works to the Louvre on
account of their "seditious tendency," he
made an exhibi non-room of his studio, had
his works catalogued, and invited the publio
te look at his buttles, hunts, landscapes, and
portraits,
In 1820 he was made a member of the In
stitute, and in 18150 was appointed to Hiicceed
Gumi as director of the Academy of Fine
Arts at Home. He died several years ago,
and his reputation has declined, but he is sure
of immortality, for the reason that he was a
representative man, the creator of a school,
and an agent in delivering art from the clas
sical tradition which made the strength and
weakness of the French school of painting up
to his time. Appltton't Journal.

To wAfm it may e.onern:
All the leading medloal anthoritlna recognize the vain
of diflaaire stimulants, hmrcirous eminent pbmeiaa
and stirKoons miht be named wbo bare adroo.tod their
employment In tbe treatment of a larce olasa of disorders.
No Dispensary is considered complete without them.
Thrj are proscribed in all public and prirate lioepitala.
and administered by all beoxide practitioners.
but tbe difficulty baa been to obtain
Alcoholic Xiqnors Pure.
The pnnirent aroma of the fnscl oil and bitins acids pre
sent in all of them can be soented as tbe gtaes is raised
the lips. Tbe nanseons darjr of thesa aotlre poisons la
peroeptible to the palate, and a barning- sensation ia tbe
stomach attests their existence wben tbe noxious draught
baa sons down. Paralysis, idiocy. Insanity and death are
tbe pernicious fruits of such potations.
Medical soionoe asks for a para stimulant to use aa a
sveciBo, which, wbila it diffuses itself through the system
more rspidly than any other known agent. Is brought into
direct and aoilro contact with the seat of disease. It ia
the property of the atimuUnt to diffuse, and by the aid of
its peculiar nutritious component parts to invigorate,
regulate, counteract and restore, and it is by the bappy
anion of the principle of activity with the principles of
iDTtgoratioB and restoration that enablee a
l'Uilli WHISKY
To accomplish beneflolal results.'
