—When Dr. Bethune and his wife were in
'Europe, Mrs. Bethune bad been transported by
water from Liverpool to London in order to con
sult Sir Astley Cooper and Sir James Clarke. At
this place her husband joined her, to make the
discovery that even the mostlearried doctors may
be found napping. The accommodations not
being extensive, when the two physicians retired
for consultation Mr. Bethune was in a position
where he could overhear their remarks. They
had a pleasant interview; one relating how he on
a certain occasion came very near fighting a
duel. The difficulties and danger of the position
occupied some time to describe, and they were
about to separate when one recalled the pa
tient. "But what shall we do with Betitune'a
wife?" "0, give her the old pill," was the ready
reply. It la auperfluotte to add that this most et
pensive medical attendance quickly, terminated.
—The Paris Figaro says that the merchants
selling goods to the Imperial family must submit
to a deduction of thirty or thirty-five per cent.
from - their ordinary prices, and mentions the cm°
of a butter merchant who lost 80,000 franca 'ln'
six months by fundshiug butter ti the Tallow,
but who made it Up on the.other customers, who
thought it fashionable to deal only with met
chards known to furnish goods to the Imperial
family. This little disclosure has 'made an un
pleasant sensation. \

"The Readings of Mr. Oharles Dickens,
condensed by himself." Messrs. Ticknor and
Fields, armed with an authorization from the
pen of Mr. Dickens, have printed these selec
tions in an authentic and convenient form,
with American illustrations by Bytinge. The
Readings, compressed as nobody but the
author could have done it into short chapters,
comprise the moat pointed incidents in the
novels, and give 4 a more varied idea of lilt
Dickens's extravagant powers than could
otherwise be gleaned from a week's perusal.
It is the first caricaturist of the age • setting
his master-pieces side by side for
you to take them in at a glance.
Very telling are those sketches,
very spicy, very sensational, and the types
frequently " more like than life." These
heroes, these heroines, whom you know as
well ,as you do your brother,—Copperfteld,
Nickleby, Little Paul ; and then Squeers,
Mrs. Gamp, Toots, stand before you touch
ing each others' hands, like actors before the
curtain. There is a sense of a very strange
propinquity in ranging straight from the fam
ous ‘.'llere's richness rof the tyrant of Dothe
boys to the prodigious " I don't believe

you are afresh sensible of the number and

!C•rreppondmce of the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.)
ROME, March, 1868.—Tke bell of the Capitol
bad announced that the hour of two on the Fif
teenth of February had arrived,and that the Carni
val should then commence, when I elosed my
last letter, listitaibm Into the Corso, we were
ebon placed on a balcony fronting the rooms of
a hospitable young artist, whose fame is a pride
to his fellow artists in Rome, and the fruits of
whose industry already decorate many of our art
galleries in America, not excepting the. Union
League, of Philadelphia, where "America Honor
ing Her Fallen Brave" testifies to the patriotism
that induced Mr. Hazeltine to leave the idealizing
of his beautiful dreams in Rome for the stern
realities of war at home when his country needed
him. There were Major Haseltine, the stars and
stripes, and a grand confusion of American,
English, Italian, French, Spanish, German and
Turkish people and emblems to contribute to the
gay scene before us. -
The Corso (the Chestnut street of Rome) was
literally packed with human beings of all aces and
sexes. Crimson and white drapery from every
window and balcony, the balconies on every floor
of houses five and six stories high; bouquets,
bon-bons, with jewels, figures in. fancy rsoatumes,
and streamers of pink, white and blue ribbons
few through the air as if Santa Claus had upset
his budget on just such a March day as this date
exhibits. The street was covered with tan to re
ceive the storm of confetti that fell like frozen
snow through the air. Harlequins, clowns,
drum-majors and court-fools danced and whirled
In circles of frolic. Columbine, Flora, Medusa,
queens and •peasants thronged the street and
laughingly returned the pelting or gifts that met
them at every step. Chariots with gardens and
pyramids of flowers and fancy articles drove an
dsr the balconies, and as fast as tkeir offerings
were untied from the ends of long sticks reach
ing to the fair recipients, others were returned in
place of them, and the contest decided at length
by an irresistible hail of confetti on horses,
chariots and riders. How it rattled on the hel
mets of the Pope's guard! how the horses
pranced and flew froth the thickening shower!
But good honor • prevailed and nothing seemed
too extravagant for the lovers of fun I. perpe
trate on each other.
At five o'clock the guns sound. Now for the
grand procession. First the senators in gilded
carriages, and with six shining black horses to
each; then the banners of velvet and satin, biome
by horsemen elegantly attired; then the Senators'
pages, with fair, girlish faces, that reminded one
of the court-scenes in Richelieu at the Walnut.
The Pope's carriage, the cardinals and Swiss
Guards, followed by the entire volunteer corps,
composed of men of every nation, completed the
procession. The costumers followed, dancing
along to the military music, and the air was filled
with shouts of glee.
Another gun! The races are to begin. Mounted
patrolmen are stationed at every cross-street to
prevent carriages from entering the Corso, and
light dragoons dash through from the Piazza del
Popolo, where the race begins, to the Riprisa
d'Barberi, where crimson, curtains conceal a.
heavy canvas stretched across the street to stop
the horses contending for the prizes. The people
crowd and jam themeelves against the houses on
Inc narrow pavements, under the baleen es, ana
seem barely to escape the heels of the horses.
Now the horses for the race are led out and their
bridles takes off, and plates of metal and
sharp spikes are suspended from their
backs. Like six flying demons,they rush through
the street, 6eir eyes glowing like fire, blood sad
foam falling from their mouths and nostrils, and
the crowd yelling frantically as their favorites
gala a bead, or seem in danger of losing the
prize. Oh ! days of benighted barbarism, here is
your relic preserved by a Christian people! On
each day one victim at least fell under the feet of
these horses,and yet for ten days the same crowd,
more Rua more feverish with drinking and gam
ing, closed the day that otherwise seemed .but
glad'holiday innocently enjoyed.
On Shrove Tuesday the sports were continued
ofter dark, and the "Swell" is a some not

Mrs. Mizabeth Murray's picture in water
colors, called "A Spanish MU-stall," now in
Earle's Galleries, has attracted much attention
end been greatly admired. The Boston Post con
tains the following notice of another work of
hers, in Devries' gallery, In that city :
We have been gratified with the sight of a pic
tnre which for some time past has been, even in
its unfinished state, a subject of conversation
among the lovers of art in this city—the "Gipsy
Forge," by Mrs. Elizabeth Murray. The common
expression which is heard in the Gallery, "that
it is equal to oil," is but equivocal praise, as
the two mediums possess their distinctive quali
ties. Notwithstanding however, this picture.
Which is in water colors, holds its own among
the large and showy works in oil by which it Is
surrounded. But we refer to the art of the
work, which is the sate in either medium.
There is nothing weak or reticent about this most
talented lady. She may wear the white kid
glove, but assuredly she has in main de fee (the
nand of Iron) beneath. The drawing of the prin
cipal figure is a masterpiece, if we may use the
expression, of anatomical drawing. Mrs. Murray
must hare had a long and severe discipline to be
able to draw the human figure with such grace
and power as she displays In the Gipsy Black
smith. There is a group of a wild looking Gipsy
woman playing a tnmboriie, a young rascal clap
ping his hands, chickens, odds and ends of old
lrcm, etc., ad iiii•ent, which would make a pic
ture of itself, although it combines admirably
with the whole. The woman on the left with
a child in her arms, stretching out its tiny hand
to grasp the mighty hammer of the Gipsy, is not
so characteristic of the type as the other figure.
she is just a pretty young mother and might be
long to any nation, were it not for her shaggy
black hair. This picture represents every age
from the infant to the old crane who patiently
plies the gigantic double bellows in the distance.
The picture is, we understand. for the exhibi

JANAI:Si lIEK'S "MARY STrART."—MIIe. Fanny
Janauschek appeared at the Acaderay of Music
last night, for the first time in this city, is the
character of "Mary Stuart" Since the great
Itistori introduced this historical personage upon
the American stage, no less than two popular
actresses have essayed to represent it, and Mlle .
Junauschek is the fourth who has attempted it
here within a year. It was but natural to expect
that there would have been much curiosity among
admirers of dramatic art, to witness Janauschek's
attempt, especially as the friends of that lady
claim for her the possession of extraordinary
talent, and the pre-eminence of the two American
ertists who had sustained the role. Whatever
feeling of curiosity did exist, however, was not of
the reckless and extravagaat kind, for, while the
upper galleries of the building were crowded, the
lower part of the house presented an array of
empty benches indicative of despondency in the
box office. The audience was, however, of a very
excellent character, but hardly as enthusiastic, as
might have been expected where the German
element preponderated so largely.
The drama presented Was an abridgement of
Schiller's Jfary Stuart, cut, as was imperatively
necessary, with an unsparing hand, but, upon
the whole, judiciously. Much of the sweet poetry
is retained, with all of the intense dramatic situ
ations, and the vivid outlines of the leading sub
ordinate characters. Of the drama itself, it
hardly necessary to speak. The subject is of the
noblest and most inspiring character, and the en
thusiastic and fiery genius of Schiller has treated
the theme worthily. Not only is the text filled
with brilliant imagery, exquisite pathos, truthful
delineations of passion, and skilfully con
trasted phases of emotion, but the
characters, are, as far as possible, historically
accurate, and, although the poet, has decided for
himself several mush disputed opiestions,such for
instance as Mary's complicity with the death of
Darnley—the personages • of the play are, proba
bly, fair representatives of those of history. It
is: indeed impossible to read the drama without
the conviction that Schiller designed to give his
picture somethin more than poetic beauty, by
painting in the flesh tints throughout with no
unsparing hand, although With success • such as
none but a master cduld have hoped to attain.
The English translation tat the libretto is the very
excellent one of, Mr. MAIM, • probably the best
Mlle. Janausehek's performance of the difficult .
Hie of Mary was by no means so good as to ex-

TILE MINERS' RIOT AT PUREES
PORT.
A Desperate and Bloody Affray—Par.
tleulars of the Outrage,
[From the Pittsburgh Commercial, April Ist.]
The telegraph gavo a brief account yea terday of a terrl.
hi riot which occurred on Monday at the Coal Works of
John O'Neal & Boa located on the Monongahela river,
four miles from McKeesport, reuniting in the death of ono
of the rioter and the wounding of others. Our reporter
yesterday visited the acme ot the riot, which J e fferson
near (Cosi Valley PoaPetlice, on Pine Ilun, In
township, and gathered the following particulars of tho
efts,' :
.... .
It sentare that some time since the coal minors along
the Monongahela valley mode a "strike" for four cents a
t umbel for digging coal. The firm of O'Neal .t. Bon re
fuoed to accede to their demands, maintaining that they
could not run their vs of ks at that rate. One night about a
month ago a number of the "strikers" set tire to the cheek
louse attached to Mr. O'Neal s coal works. The home has
t
just Veen rebuilt at an expoa of one thouaand dollars. (in
Thursday night last a note a found en the door of the
stable of 31r. O'Neal, etatin at if ho hired any men for
less than four cents a bus el for digging, they would
set fire to his whole place. watch was kept on the ora
l:I/MCA for two or three nights, but none of the would be
insendlaries troubled them. On Monday morning twat,
Mr. O'Neal hired about a dozen mon to dig for hint at
three and a half cents a bushel who went to work im.
mediately. Everything was quiet until about noon,whas
over two hundred of the "atrikers," who wore principally
from Six Mile Run, came along. They were all armed
with clubs, and were headed by a man carrying a rod
flag, and another beating a drum. They went past Mr.
O'Nesrs house and started towarda the: works, about
half a mile up Pine Run..Ttie pit where the riot occurred
is located on a hill above the main road. which Is reached
by a long, narrow road running along the side of the KUL
The rioters did not come np this toad, but proceeded to
the foot of the hill. just. helowsthe idt. Mr. John O'Neal,
who was on the hill, approached, the brow and asked the
crowd what they wanted. They add that they wanted
to see big (O'NesPis) diners, when one of them appeared.
The crowd asked Mali/le and the. othoni_wore aping to
work for three cents and a half ; hushel. Ho replied that
they were, whereupon nteral of the +weir below hid
-
lobed to then; ,Iftitt the' Wouldn't work or that long,"
'end used other expr_ nialotUt. The foremos of the crowd
then started up the hill towards the pit: whon Mr. O'Neal
warned them to go back, saying that they had already
cite very great enthusiasm. If Ristori had not
appeareil in the part, Janauschek might have
received higher praise; if Mrs. Lander also had
never attempted it, Janauschek would have had
so equal in the character. Ristori's impersona
tion was in every particular superior to that given
last evening. In some respects Mrs. Lander's
interpretation was better. Janauschek has more
physical force—more tragic power than Mrs.
Lander, but her performance was grosser. She
lacks intellectuality. There is a fine undertone'
to Mary's character as Schiller has drawn it,
which In some 'measure escaped her at
tention, if indeed she possesses aest
hetic spirit enough to have given it. It
is difficult to describe precisely the deficiency; the
personation was like a succession of chords from
which the third was occasionally dropped. This
want was especially observable in a portion of
the wonderful scene in the third act, where the
captive queen exults over her narrow liberty,
and gives that beautiful invocation to the clouds
to carry her thoughts to her beloved France.
Janauschek hardly rose to the spirit of the text,
and the sweet poetry of the incident lost much
of its melancholy beauty by the interpretation.
Both Bistori and Mrs. Lander gave this passage
with exquisite spirit.
In the Interview with Elizabeth, too,.Mrs. Lan
der approached the climax more skillfully than
did Janauschek. The outburst of rage at the In
solence of Elizabeth, in the latter ' was sudden,
unexpected and unpremeditated. But a moment
. before she sans a suppliant, with no token of
dereeness In her voice or manner. Mrs. Landes
plainly showed that beneath the guise of humility,
worn only to gain her object, she concealed a
fiery paesion, that scarce could wait the final pro
vocation to burst forth, and overwhelm her ad
vereney. And this is the true and artistic inter
pretation of the passage. Mile Janauschek suf
fers by comparison only. Her personation was,
of itself, very good indeed, much superior in
every respect to the kind of acting that is pre
sented by most of the "stare" who make engage
ments at our theatres. In some of the episodes she
fulfilled the most sanguine expectations of her
auditors. The two most observable of these
were;that in which she exhibits remorse for her
participation in Darnley'S death, and where she
contends with Burleigh when he comes to read
her death sentenee.The death scene was tolerably
well done, with the exception that Janauschek,
instead or exhibiting violent anger at the prrsence
of the. treacherous Leicester, and subduing it
upon remembering her situation, displayed very
little intense emotion of any kind. She dres.ed
In white, according to Selitiler's direction. We
think it Is a mistake to end the drama with Lei
cester upon the stage alone. The execution
scene should properly conclude It, 'for the closing
tableau not only contributes greatly to the gran
deur and solemnity of the whole act, but it
finishes the performance appropriately.
Fortunately for the audience. last night, the
character of Elizabeth was entrusted toes skillful
an artist as Mlle. Singer. In two entire acts of
the drama Mary does not appear at all, and
Elizabeth is the central figure. It is no dis
parar'ircent of Mile. danatiechek to say that
Mile. Singer is nearly as good au actress as she.
Although it wns thought necessary to apologize
for her slight indisposition, - she performed the
part in the rstost creditable manner, and was
Warmly applauded several times. The most
1 04 ., vilieg - s;..,sta in . tvirtdi she appeared were, lint,
that in which she urges Mortimer to stay her
rival, and secondly, the interview with. Mary, in
the park of "Fotheringay." In both of these
Mile. Singer displayed unusual ability, and she
may well be content with the impression she
made upon the audience.

[From N. Y. Herald of To-day. I
Aiwa, Y, April 1, stop.—Thu progress of business in the

•Y peeled charges of corruption and oribery preferred by
Mr. Him:, of Wayne, a venerable, white-haired member,
who rote in big soot, and, while his frame quivered with
emotion, stated that an attempt had been made to bribe
him in reference to the Eric Railway MIL He then read
from a paper the allegations below, charging that the
Prnillead Comn.ittee'a report on the Lilo bill had
been bought; that a portion of the vote of the
House sustaining the report had been bought, and that
the voters cf nice:here ot the House had also been bought
on the "Harlem Milk. bill," He enunciated each of the
charges in a clear and distinct voice, arresting the . con.

against the Erie railroad.
The preferment of tit e charges created a great sensation.
Mottoes: followed each other in quick succession and an
hour or mere was consumed beiore the regular order of
business was resumed. There was a universal outcry for
the appointment of investigation. The members of the
Railroad Committee rose one after another, denied
the charges and courted an inquiry. There was a
fierce onslaught from the leaders of both political
parties, but the long white beard of the accuser was now
at rest as he eat quietly in his seat, defying the storm
which he had raised, looking like one of the Roman llen-
Hatorn whom Brumes found motionless in the Senate
ouse while his soldiers sacked the Eternal City. It was
charged that the allegations were made Just at thus time
when the friend:, of the Erie bill were moving for its rein
troduction.
Mr. Reber, of Kings, asserted that he knew nothing of
any bribery or corruption. Ile was anxious to havo the
charges. investigated. He had voted against the Erie bill,
innocent of any corruption. It was not until he had read
the Heratil that he found there was a "bone" in it.

the charges was amended so as to require the Investigat
