Q alters la Tevrn.
All tho Quakers are not In Philadelphia. A
;d many of them are here. The hour for
their annual influx has arriTed, and you cannot
Walk very far In any principal street without
meeting a coal-scuttle bonnet or a long drab
coat It is a characteristic fact, however, that
these quiet people love the quieter streets. Only
the gayent of the lllcksites prefer Broadway.
The steady, old conservative Friend ot the
demure type sticks to the streets (when he can
find them) where the grass grows between the
tones and the moss accrues on the curb. They
come here accompanied, as they invariably are,
by wet weather, and rain has come down and
umbrellas have gone up every time they have
Bet foot out of doors. I love the sight of these
gentle religious folk In loud Now York. They
fall'' hnbn us like -dew' from heaven, ' or
drops from a watering-pot, and , lay the
fecial .. dust lor - a little space. I take
A gray dress as evidence of good-will, and a
poke-bonnet as the exponent of peace. I like
to be thee'd and thou'd and second-persea'd
generally by a meek man in a broad-brim and a
long tall, and I don't trouble myself about the
correctness of the syntax that is addressed to
me by a feminine thumb-twlrler in sad-colored
Bilk. , I prefer the nasal twang of a Quaker
meeting to the tuneful intonations of St. Aiban's
Chapel, and I think the Spirit would be more
likely to move one among the solemn sameness
Of a gathering of Friends than amid the osten
tatious reverence of ritualism. This apropos
of the Quakers flooding the city. Their meet
ings hitherto have been largely attended and
affluently sprinkled with religious people of
other denominations. This contribution from
outsiders has scarcely a religious purpose. The
Bame order of curiosity attaches to a Quaker in
New York that lingers around the wearer of
knee-breeches and a powdered wig. The un
adulterated Friend is something of an exotic
here, and there Is the Bame sort of satisfaction
in attending his religious councils that there is
in a womanly woman's going clandestinely to a
fiemi-euffrage lecture addressed to "ladies only.'
Italian Opera.
Our week of Italian opera has been a curious
and not wholly successful one. Its triumphs
are limited to Miss Kellogg, Signor Srignoli,
and Madame Gazzaniga. The last-named lady
Las behaved with dignity In not attempting to
appear in parts for which her age now renders
her notoriously unfit. But she is the best
"Azucena," for instance, that we have had for
many months. Miss Eellogg, though made of
hardly stern enough material for "Leonora" in
II Trovatore, presented no point which caused
her friends to regret her appearance in that role.
The gold in Brignoli's voice, and the lead in his
acting, were just as perceptible as ever. The
entire curriculum of emotion Is expressed by him
by putting his hand to his eyes. The other
night Miss McCnlloch appeared as "Lucia," and
the press and the public have been quarrelling
ever since as to which was most to blame the
management for not making better arrange
ments, or the young lady for accepting a role
which the disappointment caused by another
soprano seemed to render it obligatory upon
her to undertake. That other soprano was
Canissa, who, to the surprise of every one, was
announced to appear as "Lucia." She Is a good
and ambitious little singer, though constitu
tionally cold, and her being ousted out of the
part is probably due to professional envy. At
any rate Miss McCnlloch was certainly no better
than the little Uongroise would have been, and
as for Signor Lefranc, he made his appearance
With his voice in such a condition that It was at
once evident he would have been better off at
home and in bed. This week will finish the
Italian opera with us, and serve it right if it is
to be conducted no better.
The Park mn Sunday.
If yon go to Central Park on Sunday yon will
behold the Industrious dromedary stalking over
the oases there with a nest of children oa his
tumps, and the indefatigable goats dragging
carts filled with youngsters and pushed by negro
j ouths In livery. You will see boats gliding
ever the lakes, a good many carriages, a few
horsemen, bevies of loiterers swallowing ice-
. cream and the "gentle drinks" which Disraeli
praises as American in "Lothair." But you
will .hear no music. The little golden
stand la closed, whence the orchestra," on
Saturdays, launches a fleet of inharmonious
sound upon a ruffled lake of air. Beneath the
. adjacent tent the usual crowd remains, but the
hum of voices and the etlppety-steppltles of the
-pedestrians are the only sounds which break the
monotony. People tired of walking lie in ambush,
and make a rush directly when the occupant of
any envied seat gets up, and then what a quarrel
ensues on possession ! As for the park carry
alls, at twenty-five . cents a ride, people pour
Into them like coffee Into a mill, and the cabrio-la-wagonettes
are taken by force.
The TonraameBt.
Some of the good Brooklynltes are amusing
themselves with what is called a tournament.
The name would naturally imply that knights
In armor charged each other, spear in hand,
and that the good times of Coeur de Lion and
Brian de Bols Gullbert, as pictured by romantic
Sir Walter Scott, were realized again. But in
fact this tournament is a very safe and simple,
matter. There is no more chance of blood or
scratches than there is in a duel with foils with
bottons on, and masks. It consists in poking
rings with a pole, every contestant being per
mitted three pokes. The amusement is appa
rently got up for the exclusive benefit of those
indulging in it, for the price of admission is ex
orbitant, not a solitary accommodation is made
for those bashful but indispensable people,
newspaper reporters, and when a programme is
- risible which Is but seldom the chief state
ments it deals In are limited to advertisements
f the sale of horses. The costumes of the
knights are more suggestive of circus and saw
dust than of medieval splendor. The armor
consists of a flannel shirt with spangles, and is
indicative of an amateur travelling show,
Frankfort Btret.
( Below French's Hotel, and between Nassau
street and William street, extends a short block
in which Sunday newspaper offloes, lager beer
' saloons, and printing dens are huddled together.
It is not a particularly clean and attractive
locality. In other words, it is to often dirty
and disgusting. Foul-mouthed men and "ilana-saacky"-looking
women continually pass and
repass. Mites of children bits ot girls and
Lots pais vulgar Jests upon each other, and
1 aceU a while there is a brief fight between
two tafflaas, and knives are threatened or
straw. Rival organ-grinders lore to go there
sad grind aggressive music, and great wagons
and snuli kand-carU are continually getting
, knotted together there. At night ragged fringes
Of music from cheap orchestras are blown out
upon the hot-steamed air, and the screams of
a drunken "can-can" issue from an obscure
faeighboring den. During moat of the twenty-
four hours It is both a noisy and a noisome place
a tort of street ovbfwfW forgotten by the police
and only affected by ruffianism and vice. And
yet, during the daytime, one or two refined
women may sometimes be seen tripping through
it, like sunbeams gilding through a wretched
cell and glorifying as they glide. An Bars..
