THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PIXILADEL PHI A, WEDNESDAY, MAY 18, 1870. 5 17 13 OT-3T O XI ZE I S ZVX S. from Our Own OorresporuunL Nw York, Mar 18, 187a - That Mermaid- Tbat mermaid that is this one is Japanese, not Feejee, and is on exhibition upon Broadway, in the same ylclnlty where the headless rooster ome months ago won deathless fame for itself nd the penitentiary for its proprietor. I have no hesitation, from the amount of observation I have been able to bestow upon the monster, in stating that It is perfectly genuine. Any one can see that from the way it is put together. The fish and fleh dovetail together too artistically for any eye except that of the microscope to detect the deception. This mermaid is a thing of bounty, and looks as though during the latter years of a prolonged existence it had associated with devil-fish and other interesting myths of the main. The expression of its face is amiable, being that of a negro baby with fits. Its features are like the word in pocket dictionaries they are not very clearly defined, but yon can tell, after a little guess work, where the nose comes in and where the ears come out, and an artistic sense of harmony is evident in the fact that the inventor, that is the discoverer, has made it web-handed. There Is no more deception about the matter than there Is in Trlnce Alfred's letter to his brother "Bertie." Mr. Barnum has admitted that he could not have discovered the thing better him self, and has advised George Wood to buy it and pat it under a glass case. Its destination, how ever, is uncertain. It is not known positively whether it will be sent to the Museum of Ana tomy or to the new Museum of Art which they are talking about. Meanwhile any one may buy it by paying one thousand dollars down, and will feel that he is doing a good thing by en couraging home manufactures. Testing the Wtraln. The position of an employe upon the elevated railroad is at present no sinecure. The direct ors are engaged in the agreeable task of testing the strength of the track and supporting pillars, and the experiment has been interrupted by an accident in which several of the employes were everely injured, "But that is nothing," say the directors of the road. "We are testing the strain, and our employes must expect to be severely Injured; we are carrying five times the weight that any one passenger car would carry, and our workmen must anticipate being promiscu ously smashed. That is to our interest, and of course they ought to comply without a mur mur." The accident which has just happened aroie from an attempt to carry ten tons of plg lron over an eighty-foot span. At that point in the road where the eighty-foot span occurs there is a sudden turn. The passenger car, containing several men in the employ of the company, passed safely over; the freight car carrying the pig-iron was whisked off, dragged the passenger car with it, and so se verely mutilated some of the occupants that they had to be carried home. That more were not hurt is the wonder. The side of the street on which the road is erected being at that hour sunny, most of the pedestrians were using the other Bide. A wagon full of provisions, and standing just beneath the track, was compressed into splinters and jelly, and the driver's back was almost grazed in his escape. Indeed, there were quite a number of escapes of this nature. "Bit then," say the directors of the company, "that Is just what we expected. We are doing our utmost to test the strength of the structure, and any one must see the propriety of property being damaged and individuals hurt during the attempt." Consequently the experiment of carrying ten tons of pig-iron will be continued directly the present ruin is repaired. The com pany is happy in possessing an unlimited num ber of employes who would gladly immolate themselves upon the altar of the elevated railway. AnnieHeila, Some weeks ago I made allusion to the green ness of Mr. Holland's old age, and indeed it is only lately that that greenness has departed to any very perceptible extent. Very suddenly the old gentleman has seemed to be completely broken, and the benefit which he received on Monday evening, therefore, had something of a farewell flavor in it. Perhaps the papers have been a little premature in hinting that we have seen the last of him. At any rate, Mr. Daly, who mingles unusual kindness of heart with stern business talents, has offered him an engagement for next season. Just as the public became curious as to the exact date when Miss Carlotta Fattl was to sail for Brazil, announcement is made of the lady's farewell concert. The event takes place next caturday night at Steinway Hall. Miss Kellogg has met with unexpected success as "Leonora." Nobody who knows anything of the requirements of that role admits' that her voice is strong enough for it, but conceding that one natural inefficiency, it is generally thought that only Lagrange andParepa exceed her in merit. Miss Kellogg has of late been severely, but not unjustly, criticised for her llsUessness; and it is pleasant to find she is still awake, even though she cannot hope to be pre-eminent in the particular sphere of her present ambition.. Next Saturday evening a very exclusive affair Is to be celebrated at Jerome's theatre. A Phila delphia amateur prima donna, whose name would be Instantly recognlz ed were I to men tion it, is to appear in operetta, and the leading lady of the first theatre in the United States is to assume a dramatic role. No one is supposed so know anything about the entertainment, save the dramatis persona and the audience assist ing. The object of this fashionable affair is to erect a monument to the memory of Gotts chalk. Axi Baba. UUSICAI AHO DUAJ1ATIC. The Ccert mt the Beetbavea Seletv. Last evening the Beethoven Society gave its first concert at the Foyer of the Academy of Music before a select audience. This society was organized for the purpose of cultivating a taste for the best music, and during the past eason it has been laboring zealously, under the leadership of Mr. Carl Wolf sohn, to get Its forces in training, with the hope and expectation of making an appeal for the favor and approbation cf the public at an early day. The society is largely composed of cultivated amateurs, and if it follows np strictly the alms which it now has in view, It will doubtless be able to do much towards inspiring a love for the finer forms of musical expression among the people of this city. The entertain ment last evening was of a semi-public haracter, the audience belsg largely composed of the friends of the members. It was considered an experiment to test the prolciencyof the society, and the decided success that was achieved cannot but be a stimulant to further exertions. The programme was one of unusual merit, aad embracing as it did compositions of flaff, Beetheven, Mendelssohn, Bach, Mozart, Schumann, aad Gounod, it was at once varied and select. The society had the assistance of Mr. Wenzel KopU, Mr. Rudolph Hennlg, and other well-known instrumentalists, whose per formances added greatly to the enjoyment of the occaajon. ' The concert opened with an "adagio-allegro" bv Raff, which was admirably rendered on the piano, violin, and violoncello by Messrs. Wolf sohn, Kopta, and Ilennlg. This was followed by Beethoven's "Devotional Song No. 4." finely oung by the society, as were also Mendelssohn's "Ave Verum" and "Gipsy Life," which con cluded the first part of the programmo. The "Gipsy Life," in particular, was applauded with great enthusiasm, and an encore demanded. In the second part the society sang Beethoven's "Devotional Songs," Nos. 1 and 5; Schumann's "Traumerel;" Gounod's "Ave Maria," by the soprani, with piano, organ, violin, and violon cello accompaniment; and Mendelssohn's "On the Sea." The other features of interest were an "Air d'Egllse," by Bach, performed by Mr. Ilennlg on the violoncello; "Andante and Variations," by Beethoven, given by Messrs. Wolfiohn aad Kopta on the piano and violin; "Romanza," by Beethoven, rendered by Mr. Kopta. The success of the Beethoven Society is In a great measure due to the exertions of Mr. Carl Wolfsohn, the musical director, and at the last rehearsal, on Monday evoulnz. the members gave him a substantial token of their regard for his services by presenting him with a handsome silver tea service. The society has reasou to be highly gratified at the success of Its concert last evening, and we hope that it will be en couraged to give a more public performance at no distant day. The t:itv aaauaoBaeata. At thb Walnut the military drama of Not Quilly, with its great battle scene and other sensational effects, will be repeated this evening. At thb A hc ii Mr. Joseph K. Etnmett will appear this evening as "Fritz," iu the drama of Iritz, Our Cousin German.

A very interesting enter tainment may be expected.

ThU wonderfully snccessful exhibition has received the unquali fied endorsement of all religions bodies. This evening will witness Concert Hall filled with clergy and laity of this denomination.
