was reduced at the Now York Theatre by the
esstes. . . oy. mid - JAL "Harkins. - The latter
having secured the Oily from the agent of Messrs.
Ifoneresult and Heade, had agreed to pay NO for
each representation of the play. The sum was
paid for several evenings, but the play did not
craw as had been expected, and Mr. Loyd objected
to pay the sum agreed ttpoth Finally, one eve
ning„ Mr. Harkins visited the box office, while the
play was in progress, took the receipts for that
evening, and paid Mr Palmer, the agents of the
authors, the amount claimed by him. To this
act Mr . Loyd demurred very strongly, and Mr.
...:Harkins left, taking with him the majority of the
company.
Last cveuing Foul Play was produced for the
first time at the Broadway Theatre, with Mr.
Harkins and those members of the Company
lately performing at the New York Theatre, bat
who had seceded with him, in the cast. It was
also again produced a: the New York Theatre, a
company having been, In the meantime, secured
by Mr. Lloyd. At 9 o'clock last night five men
unexpectedly presented themselves at the stage
entrance on !Mercer street of the Broadway Thea
tre, and pushing aside the door-keeper, Stephen
Wallace, aged sixty-five years, rashed into the
theatre. Descending to the floor on which are
the dressing-rooms,tbe party were met by several
of the employds of the theatre, who demandedt
the business of the intruders. No satisfactory
reply was returned, and the employes, headed by
Stephen Wilson, the property man, Attempted to
eject the party. Without stating who they were,
me strangers at once seized Wilson, and . one of
them bent him back on the stair ralling,and while.
in that position several shots were fired by the
party at the helpless man. One shot struck him
on the side of the head, and glanced off,cansing a
severe scalp wound. Another struck Wilson in
the right leg, also inflicting a serious wound.
Five shots in all were tired by the party. One
of these shots paned through the right forearm
and entered the breast of Leslie Chamberlain,
aged 17 years, of No. 101 Seventh-avenue,
who employed to, attend
to the gas in the establishment. Chamberlain's
wound is regarded as very dangerous. He was
standing at the head of the stairs at the time,
looking at the party, and taking no part in the
affray. Hearing the confusion and subsequent
shots, Mr. Harkins, who was about to go on
the stage, and conjecturing, what afterward
proved to be true, that tho intruders wore a party
of Sheriff's officers, who had called to arrest him,
dashed across the stage, and passing through the
auditorium took refuge in the office. His flight
caused considerable alarm among the audience
who had heard the pistol shots, and wore curious
to ascertain the cause. This alarm was intensified
by the appearance of Mrs. Harkins at one of the
wings, exclaiming, "Do not let them injure my
husband.” Soon after Mr. Jack appeared upon
the stage and assured the audience that there was
no cause for alarm; the reports they had heard
were occasioned by the accidental discharge of
pistols. Many, however, left the theatre and did
not return. In the relemitime, news of the affray
had been communicated to the. Police, and, en
tering the theatre, they arrested the entire party
of assailants and convoyed them to the
Wooster street Pollee Station, where they
gave the names of George Hickey, James Moore,
James Ward, Dennis Leary, and Thomas Quinn,
and all professed to be Sheriff's offi
cers, acting under an order of arrest for D. El.
Harkins, granted by Justice Barnard of the Su
preme Court, on the complaint of J. T. Lloyd.
'The prisoners took the matter quite coolly, and
seemtd to think that their position as officers
would shield them from any serious consequences
of their act. Hickey, Ward and Moore were
each armed with a pistol. Leary had no, pistol,
but carried a knife, and had in his pocket a num
ber of pistol cartridges. Three shots had been
discharged from Ward's pistol and two
from Hickey's. The wounded persons were
brought to the station-house. Wilson
at once identified Hickey as the man who
had shot him, and Chamberlain said Ward re
sembled the man who was firing at the time he
was shot. All of the Sheriff's party were locked
up in cells for the night, much to their surprise.
Hickey proposed that they should be allowed to
go at large last night and they would report in
person at the station-house at any hour that
might be named on the following day. This cool
proposition was declined, much to the indigna
tion of the City Hall officials. The wounded
were taken to the New York Hospital, where, at
a late hour last night, Chamberlain was pro
nounced to be in a critical condition.—Tribune

TEXAS.
Stoppage of a Train and Attempted
imobery of $300,000 by Demperattoes
—One of the Gang Shot Lend.
BnowNsvitur, August 18th,1868.—On Monday
night, the 10th instant, a conducts from Monte
rey. with $300,000 in specie, was attacked within
three miles of Matamoras by six desperadoes, who
suoceeded in taking possession of the train. The
guard, acting as an escort to the treasure con
sisting of thirty men well armed with Henry
rillea, were either surprised and overcome, or,
perhaps, had a, private understanding with
their assailants beforehand, and were - overcome
by the prosuect of sharing the rich booty with the
captors. The six daring outlaws, however,
succeeded in getting possession of the treasure,
and would, no doubt, have succeeded in carrying
it off and secreting it, but one of the escort, more
-daring than the others, opened an attack on the
robbers by firing on them from one of the
wagons. He succeeded in shooting one of them
named Miguel Ramirez through the head, and in
wounding another seriously. On this shoiv of
pluck and success the remainder of the escort
rallied around their intrepid leader,und succeeded
in arresting four of them. Among the latter is a
desperado named Abram Garcia, who, it is said,
is long known as a robber and assassin under the
morn de guerre of Caballo Blanco.
About a year ago the young man Ramirez was
under indictment for murder in the District Court
of this place, but discharged by nolle prosequi
because the evidence against him was insuflielent
to sustain the charge. His father is a wealthy
old miser, and like several others of the robbers
he is connected with some of the most influential
families in Matamoras. His dead body, perfora
ted by two bullets, way exposed at the calaboose
.all day Tuesday.
The fellow Caballo Blanco, whose crimes are
-said to be almost incredible from their number
and audacity, has been demanded from the cus
tody of General Palacios, the military command
ant, by the civil authorities, and the former has
surrendered - him for no other reason than that it
is supposed that he has influential backers in
Matamoras, who hope thus to.save him from cer
tain punishment and, perhaps, themselves from
exposure as accomplices in some of his crimes.
Murder Upon Impulse.
The singular story which follows, and which is
taken from a recent number of the London PTCWB,
furnishes an additional case for the study of
psychologists :
Gunner Benjamin Sheldon, who was hanged
at Lucknow for having shot and killed Bombar
dier Wall, made a strange confession. On the
duy of the murder he had been led 'by the kind
ness of his friends' to drink to excess. 'ln the
evening,' Le says, 'I must have been at roll call,
althovgh I do not recollect it; and the first
thing I do recollect, after leaving the can
teen when it was closed, Was finding my
self at the cot of Corporal Wall,
with a carbine in my hand. I cannot tell whether
Corporal Wall was asleep or awake. It was then
as in a moment, I felt impelled by some uncon
trollable impulse to shoot him. I tried not to do
it, but I had no power—it was as if I could not
leave the spot. It seems to me as if I had been
under a strong and irresistible temptation of the
di I do not remember discharging-the-car
bine, or speaking to any one; but my next con
scious moment was, when I was being hand
cuffed in the guard-room, as one of the hand
cuffs nipped me. It was not until the next
morning, when I was told of what had happened,
that the circumstance of having been at Corporal
'{Pall's cot flashed upon me.' "

Burlesque at the Wainnit•
Mr._Lefflugwell, a burlesque actor of some re
putation, appeared for the first time In Philadel
phia at the Walnut street Theatre, last evening.
The pieces chosen for his debut were Byron's
amusing burlesque of Fra Diavalo, and Mr. Fal
comes farce,__Too _Much. 17or Good Nature. In
the first the character of "Beppo" gave Mr. Lef
iftngwell an excellent opportunity to imitate and
--exaggerate-Mr,-Edwin—Forrest.---Probably- this
latter gentleman can be burlesqued more easily
than and ether living actor. ills peculiarities
and mannerisms are strongly marked, and Play - •
gbers are so 'very familiar with all his tricks of
imsPing, grimacing, stamping and rolling his r's,
that the hnitator_tinds_ids.atuitence_at_once_in
perfect sympathy with him. The burlesque last
ight-r-was—edmirabloi,and—was=received--wlth
hearty laughter by the large audience. The ex
aggeration was by no means violent, and indeed
Mr. Forrqt's tricks were so closely imitated that
we regret 'that the "great American tragedian"
was not present,, to see how nearly ho ap
proaches sometimes to absurdity, and how very
barrow the line is between his serious perform
ance and the intense comedy of Mr. Leflifigwell's
personation. Where Mr. Forrest pronounces
" blood " in nine syllables, Mr. .fJeffing well
extends it to fifteen. That is about the extent of
the_exaggeraticn.. The latter_gmitlemen is Mr.
Forrest plus ridiculous mannerisms, minus his
genuine talent. In the second piece Mr. Lulling- " well was also excellent. We shall not attempt
to describe either the character or the drains.
Both will be given again this evening, and they
should be seen. Brace it to say, that the actor
is very funny in his own person, and some of his
imitations are excellent. Ho professes to be
simply a burlesque actor, and unlike many other
gentlemen in this department of art, we are happy
to say ho is really amusing, and without that in
clination to constant repetition which invariably
bores the audience before the close of a comic en
tertainment.
