GOULD, noS-tf Seventh and Chestnnt Madame Ristori. There was a splendid audience last even ing to see Mme. Rlatori in Mary Stuart ; but the enthusiasm of the Fatal Five Hundred for the great actress seems to have died out, for their ranks were reduced to about one hundred, and there was a fearful Many vacancy in the very best part of the house, into which the common two thousand dared not venture, and over which the woes of the hapless Queen of Scots had to be wailed before they could reach the popular heart. It was a dismal gap, which must have per plexed the Italians Unacquainted with the mysteries of the stockholders’ privileges. The play was finely done, of course, and was eDjoyed heartily by the people who are hot stockholders. It was enjoyed, too, by Major General Meade and Secre fary Stanton, who were in a pro scenium box, and who, with the ladies accompanying them, were intro duced to Mme, Histori, behind the scenes, daring one of the acts in whioh she does not appear. The interview was an agreeable one to all parties. This evening Macbeth is to be produced, and even the Fatal Five Hundred are ex pected to condescend to appear to witness a play, every scene of which is probably known to a good many of them. In the sleep-walking scene, it may well be be lieved that Mme.Riatori is surpassingly ifine. a On Friday evening, for Mme. Ristori’s benefit, the tragedy oi Pia dei Tolomei is to be produced. The story is a thrilling; one, foil of fine dramatic situations, and Ristori has' appeared in nothThg to greater advan tage. She has also consented, on this occa sion, togive a recitation in French, and has chosen for this purpose Leg Adieu? de Jeanne d’etre, written by Schiller and trans lated into French by LegouvS, the author of Medea. Mr. D’Huy vetter’s Pictures. This evening the third sale of foreign paintings imported by Mr. A. D’Huyvetter from Holland, Belgium!, Germany and France, will be commenced at the Art Gal lery of Mr. B. Scott, Jr., No. 1020 Chestnut street. The promenaders during this fine weather have had opportunities of examin ing them as they bang on the walls, and it Is admitted that a finer collection has rarely if ever been offered at public sale. There undoubtedly be a large attendance of connoisseursthia evening: The sale will be continued to-morrow and Friday<eveninga. Themain ornament of the gallery of the Crosby "Opera House Association, in Chest nut street, above Thirteenth; is Bierstadt’s great landscape called “The Yo-Semite Val ley.” It constitutes the second prize offered by the Association, and is valued at twenty thousand dollars. The readers of the jour nals of the day are aware that the distribu tion takes place on the- 21st prox,; that the first prize is the Chicago Opera House, and that there are innumerable other prizes, some of which are of great value. “The Yo- Semite Valley” naturally attracts a large share of attention, and by many of Mr. Bierstadt’s admirers is considered his great est work—superior to his “Storm in the Rocky Mountains.” The artist spent nearly two years In California and its vicinity, and his studies probably show greater ability than those of any painter who has attempted to depict the scenery of the Pacific slope. He was for nearly a year engaged in plaoing on canvas the “Yo-Semite,” and the work is worthy of the toil, The scene is a curved gorge, whose walls are peaks of sand stone, nearly two thousand feet in height. At the bottom runs the river, not dashing and foaming, bat with a plaoid flow, which al lows of a clear reflection of the trees on it banks, as well as the projections of the rocky walls which tower towards the skies The atmosphere of the picture is very pecu liar. It includes a soft haze, almost golden, and after gazing at the picture for some time, the scene seems to glimmer and waver through the veil of misty air. Above all shine the clouds, white'and blue,crowning the glory of earth’s loveliness with the splendor of the heavens. As we gaze, the beauty of the picture grows on us, and even of the most utilitarian “ Peter Bell,” one could scarcely say, as he looked: “Tie bright bine sty did never melt Into his heart; he never felt The witchery of the soft bine sty.’ The “Yo-Semite” will be on exhibition at the gallery in this city until the time of the drawing in January. The announcement of the sudden death of Mr. Edward C. Dale will be received by his numerous friends and acquaintances with profound regret Mr. Dale has occupied so many positions of honor and trust in Phila delphia, and discharged the duties of all with such sterling integrity and marked ability that his decease may well be regarded as inflicting a public loss upon the commu nity. Mr. Dale has at different periods served his fellow-citizens as Director of the Mint of the United States, Inspector of tho County Prison, Prothonotary of the District Court, President of the Philadelphia, Wil mington and Baltimore R.R. Co., President of the Germantown and Norristown R. R. Co., and Vice-President of the Franklin Fire Insurance Company and in each he has maintained the enviable position of a genial and high-minded gentleman, in the truest sense of the word. His sudden decease leaves a vacuum in a large cirole of friends, who have highly prized his many virtues and his place in their affections and esteem will not easily be filled. Mr. Dale was the Bon of Commodore Richard Dale, and what was written of the father by the historian.of the Naval Heroes of America may be truthfully applied to his son. “The character of Dale is marked by a total want of exaggeration. No man could bfe bolder in action, none was less boastful in victory. He was cool, prompt, never led into ex cesses. Modesty and ability with him went hand in hand. Never, it has been well said, has a whisper ofcomplaint been heard against the public or private career of Richard Dale.” W. H. DUTTON The Sale at Concebt Hall.— Mr. B. Scott, Jr„ Auctioneer, commenced the sale of bronzes, &c., this morning, of Messrs. Viti Bros., late importation from Europe, to an immense audience. The bidding was quite lively but prices generally were low in comparison to the value. The sale will be continued to-morrow morning, at which time the fine gilt clocks, which should have been in this morning’s catalogue, but whioh did not reach here in time, will be sold. We presume the attendance at to-morrow's sale will bp still greater, more particularly as it wiH be the last sale of the seasoQ. W. H. DUTTON, The Case of the Hon. C. T. Culver. Fbanklin, Pa., December 18.—A ser geant-atrarms of the United States House of Representatives arrived here this moraine with authority to take Hon. G. V. Culver from thejail and proceed with him to Wash ington, bail having been entered in the criminal charges against Mr. Culver seve ral days ago. The only charge upon which he was held was a civil one founded upon James S. Myers’s bench warrant. The Sheriff promptly delivered Mr. Culver to the custody of the Washington officer, who requested Deputy Sheriff Mark to accompany the party to Washington. A large number of citizens accompanied Mr Culver from the jail to the-depot The popular feeling seems strongly in Ms favor since the publication of his letter. It is un derstood that the question of privilege will be decided by Congress upon bis arrival James S. Myers, the plaintiff also went to Washington. It is beUevedhere that Judge Tunkey would have discharged Mr. Culver upon his question of privilege, had he been brought before him on a writ of habeas corpus on the civil case. The recent order of General Sickles, pro hibitiDg corporeal punishment, was served on the solicitor of the Wilmington, N. C. district on Monday. It is universally re garded as an unwarranted interference with the judiciary of the State, and its revoca tion by the President is confidently pre dicted. • Jotan B. Myers & Do,, Auctioneers.

THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.—PHILADELPHIA; WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 19.1866 —TRIPLE SHEET. 1 Bierstadt’s “Yo-Semite Talley.” Death of Edward C. Bale. CITY BUM.ETIN. DESTRUCTIVE CONFLAGRATION. SEVERAL WAREHOUSES BURNED. A Man Supposed to Have Perished In the Blames. This morning, about half-past five o’clock, a fire broke ont on the first floor of a three storied briok structure, No. 227 North Broad street. The building occupied a front of 60 feet on Broad street, and extended through to Ly brand street, a distance of 100 feet. With the exception of a portion of the second floor, the whole structure was occupied by Messrs. Allen & Davis, dealers in malt and hops. The flames spread rapidly, and the whole establishment was completely gutted. Messrs. Allen & Davis had a large stock on hand. Their loss will probably reach $35,- 000, upon which there is an insurance of $20,000 in New York, New England and Philadelphia Companies, A' portion of the second floor of No. 227 was occupied by James Ralston, a carpet weaver. His stock was heavy, being valued at $B,OOO. But a small portion was saved and that was in a damaged condi tioq. The loss is about $6,000 and is partly insured. Mr. Ralston occupied the back part of the second floor as a sleeping apartment. It was his nsnal habit to get up about seven o’clock and get hie breakfast at a neighbor ing restaurant.' Up to ten o’olock this mer ning he had not been Been in the vicinity, and the supposition is that he was burned to death.' The fire extended to No. 229 adjoining, at the North. This was also a three-storied brick building. It was nearly new, and was 20 feet front by 100 in depth. It was occupied by George L. Dervale, and was completely filled with flour, grain and pro duce. Mr. Dervale was doing a very ex tensive business. This building and con tents were destroyed. The loss is estimated at $25,000. Adjoining on the sonth, No. 226 was £a three-story brick building 16 by 100 feet. This was occupied by S. W. Heal, who was engaged in distilling whisky. He had on hand a large quantity of mash and also a considerable quantity of whisky. The structure was completely wrecked and the contents were mostly destroyed. The loss is estimated at $lO,OOO. Insured for $6,000 in New York and New Haven Com panies. The building is owned by a Mr. Davis, of New York, and is partly Insured. No. 223 Broad street ii occupied by Bush on & Hahs. grain merchants. It is a large double building. The roof at the rear por tion was damaged, and the stock suffered somewhat by water. - North of the burning structures was the extensive lumber yard of John A, Davis. This was in imminent danger, and several times piles or boards took Ore from sparks. Through the exertions of the firemen the flames were prevented from extending to the lumber. The fire burned for upwards of two hours, and caused a bright light. There was a pretty strong wind prevailing at the time, and some of the sparks were carried a considerable distance. Several houses in the neighborhood took fire, but were not serionsly damaged. The lager beer saloon of G. Antoine, Nos. 1221 and 1223 Callowhill street, had the roof somewhat inj cured by sparks falling upon it. The origin of the fire is not known, but will be investigated by'Fire Marshal Blackburn. A man named Charles Bailey was ar rested during the fire, for stealing.- He had on the equipments of the Union Hose Com pany of West Philadelphia, and was oanght in the act of breaking open a trunk in the establishment of Allen & Davis. He was observed by Messrs. Fox and Auner, mem bers of the Columbia Engine Company, to put a watch in his pocket. They ealled the attention of Bergeant Hamilton to the fact, and Bailey was arrested. In the excitement it is supposed that he threw the watch into the fire as it was not found on him. The prisoner had a hearing before Aid. Jones, and was held in SSOO bail to answer at Conrt, Election of School Controllers.—The annual election for Controllers of the Pub lic Schools was held last evening in the dif ferent sections.
