THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, MAY 4, 181. 5 MUSICAL ANDDRAMATia. Th City Amnitmnti. At thb Acadbmt of Music The Black Crook, with the Vajiltons. the skaters, the beautiful ballet, the corneous scenery, and other attrac tive features will be represented this evening. AT thi Walnwt the drama of The Great City will be performed this evening, Mrs. D. I. Bowers having been obliged to discontinue her engagement on account of severe Indisposition. On Monday night Mrs. Bowers was suffering from hoarseness, and she has since been unable to appear. We hope sincerely that she will be suflicentlv recovered to resume her performance, on MoBday evening next, according to an nouncement. Mrs. Bowers is one of the finest artists upon the American stage, and in a num ber of her best rolrs she has absolutely no rival; and in Philadelphia, where sbe has many warm friends, and where sbe was for a number of years a favorite stock actress, such an interrup tion of her professional duties as has now occurred will be especially regretted, and many cordial wishes for her speedy recovery will be expressed. At tub Chesnut a representation of the comedy of Saratoga will be given this evening. Saratoga has made a decided hit, and the per formance has improved very much since the first night, so that now all its most amusing Soints are rendered with the best effect. The ouse was crowded to its utmost capacity last evening, and the play was applauded with much enthusiasm. At the Arch Mr. John Brougham will this evenlDg personate "Shylock" in his burlesqueof Much Ado About a Merchant of Venice. At tub American the performance this evening will be for the benefit of Mr. Charles S. MarkJ. the treasurer. Miss Kate Fisher will appear In the equestrian dramas of The French py on Horseback and Jack Shcppard on Home hack. There will also be a grand ballet and a variety of other attractions. To-morrow Miss Kate Fisher, whose ensage- ment concludes this week, will have a benefit, when a great number of entertaining features will be presented. As this will be a family night a large attendance may be expected, as this feature, which has been introduced by Mr. Fox since he has been in his present ele gant theatre, is decidedly popular, and every Friday evening the house is crowded with ladies and young people who evidently appreciate the performances most highly. The company at the American includes a great number of ta lented artists in various specialties, who succeed each other rapidly, and one feature following another without tedious intermission the inte rest of the audience is constantly kept alive. The ballet is large and well drilled, and adds greatly to the attractions of the entertainments. On Saturday there will be a family matinee. At tbb Museum, Ninth and Arch streets, a representation of the drama of Uncle Tom's Cabin will be given this evening. At the Town Hall, Germantown, a concert will be given this evening in aid of the Market Square Church. A Grand Oroan Concert will be given this evenlngattbe Arch St. Methodist Church, south east corner of Broad and Arch streets. Messrs. M. H. Cross, II. G. Thunder. II. A. Clark, Spencer Hudnut, Richard Zeckwlr. and Wenzel Kopta will assist. A second concert will be given on the 11th instant. CITY NOTICES. Injurious Effect of Too Much Food. Undoubt edly many of the Ills that flesh 1b heir to, particu larly in the vernal months, arise from the common practice of Imposing npon the stomach more food than that organ can properly digest. Persons of sedentary habits are particularly liable to bo Injured by giving fuil scope to their appetites. By indulging at night and at other unseasonable hours in rich viands, cannot fall to produce Indigestion, dyspep sia, skin diseases, and sometimes, when the system becomes overcharged with blood, that dangerous disorder, apoplexy. The habit of partaking of noc turnal meals rapidly alters the "tone" of the system and diminishes the solvent powers of the digestive organs. Frequent and active exercise would work off the Injurious effeet arising from free living, but pe-sons who thus Indulge their appetites usually have no de sire to exert themselves In the open air beyond the limited amount prompted by their Inclination or business. The effects, too, of occupations npon the system are very apparent. The hardest manual labor In the open air has '.he Influence of exercising a free circulation of the blood aad produces a keen appetite, with a corresponding activity and prompt ness of digestion. The pale and sallow complexions f operatives In woollen mills, Ivory-turners, and of many artisans, are an unfailing evidence that these pursuits are injurious to health, and when constantly engaged In them the poisoned atmosphere of the apartments often produces a fatal inflammation of the lungs. An ounce of prevention Is worth a pound of enre, Is an old anditruthful saying, Theretoro we advise all readers of Thb Telegraph who are troubled with the complaints now very prevalent dyspepsia, headache, Indigestion, disordered liver, want of ap petite, nausea, or feverish skins to take without delay Dr. Schence's Mandrake Pills. We know of no remedy so harmless and decisive in Its action. It at once strikes at the root of the disease and pro duces a healthy tone to the system. These pills can be obtained of druggists throughout the country at twentj-flve cents per box. Readers of Tbb Evening Telegraph desiring to consult Dr. Schenck, Sr., or Dr. Schenck, Jr., for consumption or any other disease which their reme dies Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic, and Man drake PUls cure, can do so free of charge at their Principal Office, Sixth and Commerce streets, Phila delphia, any Saturday morning after 10 o'clock. To thb Public. The manufacture and the great practical worth of the Sanborn Steam Fireproof Safe having been rally established, it is now offered to the business public, and offered with assurance, supportsd by In disputable facts, that It Is thb best safe in thb world, for It has been proved, again and again, to far outlast in a Ore those that have heretofore been re garded as the very best It Is most thoroughly made, and of the best material, is furnished with Sargent's celebrated Magnetic Combination Lock, than which there Is none better, and in all burglar-proof quali ties it la unsurpassed, while for beauty of style and ftnlsh, freedom from dampness and all inconveni ence in use, as In Its power to resist Ore, it is without a rival. It is therefore assuming nothing but simple Justice to the facts to offer the Steam Safe as the taost thoroughly scientific, most complete, and per fect asfe that can be obtained, in support of these elalms we call attention to a few of the testimonials It has won: 'Those who require the use of safes for the pre servation of valuable articles should only purchase those which have been fully tested and found to possess the desired qualities." Philadelphia Sunday DiapttcK "A Heal Salamander at Last.-Not the least Interesting feature of the great Inter-State Fair, at Norristown, was the trial of patent sales, wnicu camo ff under the superintendence of the commute. An I mmense wood Are was lighted, and a large number f safes of different makes were placed in It. The fire was kept burning nine hours and a half, and at the end of that time every safe In the flames had its contents totally destroyed, except one, with San born's Patent steam Improvement. This was taken out, and, to the extreme surprise of the uninitiated, its contests were uninjured. The committee were go much pleased with the demonstration of the fact that there la at last a really fire-proof safe, that a gold medal was awarded the owners." Philadelphia jjvnday Trantcript A Great Triumph We were on the ground when this trial took place, and stall never forget the aanazemeLt expressed by the multitude when the onteBta were taken from tne safe (with the San " born Patent Improvement) in a perfect condition, while all the others without the improvement were tendered worthless by the fearful ordeal of flames to which for ten hours, they had been subjected.

These ends can be easily reached by acquiescence In the results of the conflict now written " ' la oar Constitution : and by the due and proper enforcement of equal, Just, and impar tial laws In every part of our country. The failure of local 'governments to furnish such means for the attainment of results so earnestly dttired Impose upon' the National Government the duty of putting forth all its energies for the protection of all its citizens of every race add color, and for the restoration of peace and order throughout the entire country. , '.'J In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand, and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. , u .r,-, .,v .., .. .( , , v Dodo at the City ef Washington, this third day of May, in the year of our Lord oae thousand eigLt hundred and seventy-one, and of the la dependence ef the United States the ninety fifth. 1 .
