LEWD AND CRIMINAL DRAMA
Formosa and Company.
The New York Times has the following
article:
We have already said enough to explain our
own reserve touching the play of Formosa and
its moral influence, and the reasons that prompt
our choice of the present time for some obser-
Mtions concerning it. We did not .feel called
apon..to_stinntlate curiosity when gratification
was at once easy and unwholesome; and the
consolation that Formosa is on the whole a very
dull play can be 'offered with increased safety
and pertinence when it is no longer to be seen.
Its moral tendency, good or bail,, has naturally
obscured the issue of its dullness—or, indeed,
of its qualities as a work' of art. This ten
dency
the London manager and the author as
usual did their best to vindicate; and.. thi4, as
usual, not upon its own merits, but by
the doubtful process of comparison. No
equivocal play or book or newspaper ever ap
pears We should-remenflier;%without similar
attempts at vindication founded on
false uses or plausible analogies. Thus Mr.
Boucicault „ points to the police reports of the
Vines in justification--as a parallel raison
d'etre—of Formosa. That is to say, because
exact accounts are given in a journal, as news,
Of things that hav happened, meretricious
representations may be given' in a theatre of
things that have not happened. And Mr.
Chatterton alleges that he would be ruined
by what more scrupulous men than himself,
both in London and Yew York, have made
and are making fortunes by—unobjectionable
dramas unobjectionably performed. Again,
Mr. Boucicault names several plays, Norma,
La Traidala, and others, in which bad women
are introduced; but fails to mention that in
eachorthese-cases, whatever-their-faults-other--
wise, the life of the heroine is shown to be
thorny and wretched from the outset, and
ends in death or inextricable misery. Ilow
does this compare with Formosa, and
does her career enforce a similar moral?'
We know very well that it does not.' Ber
story is that of a woman who is not only a
successfulcourtesan, but a prosperous sharper
as well; of a creature. who is a two-edged
sword, cutting alike both friend and foe ; of a
criminal destitute of remorse, who, never
brought to punishment of any sort, winds up
her flagitious course by a piece of good fortune
that most of the good and pure of her sex
might envy and envy in vain. Such is the Te
ply to the question as to the morality of For
mosa, and in this reply lies the gist of the
The point is, Whether the general incentive,
the teaching of the play, is toward vice or vir
tue. The outcry that Formosa •is .abused
because the author has dared to introduce vile
women in his play is sheer nonsense. What
is---“Milwood-in-George-:Barnwell ?----And- who
eani- doubt—that-George Barnwell -is a moral
play,? On the other hand there are vicious
- • women in Jack Sheppard, a piece in which
the hero, like Barnwell, also ends at the gal
lows ; .and we have indisputable evidence that
Jack Sheppard is one of the most pernicious
dramas ever acted. The whole action of
the first:named play is a warning of
• ' the misery of crime ; the action of
the second is a constant illustration
4061 , its pleasantness; and although,.to follow
history and the novel, Tyburn Tree is seen at
last, Jack dies more like a tem than a male
"'factor, and but for the aceffient to "Blueskin,"
, might not have died at all. Ilere — fx - the
Measure, and there is no other just measure of
the desert of Formosa. Does it tend to make
"women pure or impure? Does it show young
.girls, in their proper colors, the shame and the
• 'woe of vice ? if it does, well. If it does ridt,.
dealing with the subject at all, the authors
who.. write, and the managers who
produce such a drama, are public nuisances,
who deserve severe condemnation, and who
ohouldreceive it at the hands of all who have
the means to make their rebuke effective.
It seems a frivolous thing to say, and yet
the talk constantly heard around us urees the
suggestion, that the effect of a given play upon
the experienced, the Mature and the educated,
affords no test of its effect upon its probable
average audience. The proper way to gauge

feet, and the idol and his surroundings occu
pied one-half of it. Fifty people would have
been crowded in that temple—a dingy; &miry
sort of room. The idol was of the . color of
Sealing-wax. A great uncouth-looking India,-
rubber character, representing an Indian,
weighing about 300 pounds, dressed. 'in red,
cambric, with .a spangled turban, and sitting in
a great armedchair, gives you a tolerable idea.
of the thing.
In front of him a dim oil lamp was burning,
and there was a strip of board on which food
and offerings are • placed, about once or twice a
year. But Air. Idol does not get the fine offer
ings after all, The priests grab them all up,
eat what is edible; and carry off what is valu
,able,. You see they feed the idols by proxy,
asßrigham-Young-marries or seals 'wives for
Joe Smith, defunct. Six feet from the idol, in
front, is a platform on which there is an im
mense German silver urn, 'of the capacity of
thirty gallons., Two • or: three young China
men were running about. One could talk
English,, poorly. He said the urn was for
"belly good thing," offerings for the idol I
presume, rich diggings for the old priests. In
'front of this were'about 500 brass images, two
or three inches in length, some kneeling before
idols, some holding others up, others standing
round loose—most Of them with ugly faces.
Around the room were many. Chinese spears,
helMets, hatchets, brass dragons, images. with
scowling faces and open mouths, dogs, and—
IpreSiime—a great many bed bUgs—for, in
the rooms above and the rooms below,' were
many beds. and coarse furniture, little stoves
fired up, with pork sizzling in the pans, and
Chinamen making shoes and blouses, and
filling the air with the fumes of tobacco. And
so they live within these blackened walls, sur
roundedhy-an-old-C'oek-Idolchundreds -of lit
tle Joshes, and innumerable disgusting
figures.
-- 1 11&•Chinamen-can-nevey-be--hroughttip_to_
the standard .of Christian civilization. They
look upon the people here as dogs and bar ,
barians. No Chinaman's bones are allowed
to rest long on this soil. Every one is sent
back to China, to bask in the smiles of some
old brass-mounted idol r in the land Of bliss.
But the women! They have no *souls, and
their bones may crumble in the sands of Cali
fornia, by the side of the Christian dogs. There
is no record on earth or in heaven for a Chinese
woman.]
The heads of Chinamen are shaved, they
wear wooden-soled shoes,•pigtails behind-mare
Chinamen all over. and forever. They cannot
be Americanized. China can throw a hundred
millions of this race upon our shores, and only
feel a source of relief. One-fourth of that
number would be a moral peStilence—a run
ning, never-ending sore, which would sap the
energy and life of our young nation. It would
demoralize and crush labor—degrade the labor- '
ing andproducing classes to thepazan rat and
offal-eating tribe. A few. thousands or hun
dreds of thousands may be used to advantage
in all parts of the country. But when the
Millions come, farewell to your eagle. The
buzzard will roost upon your possessions, and
attaint the free air that plays, upon your hills.
In a little room six feet square I saw one
Chinaman shaving another. The. razor was'
two inches long, an inch and a half broad, and
halt' an inch thick, and square at the end. It
lookettlike-anicat-clea,ver:—ThelotirberShaved
his customer's head all round, leaving the tuft
and qbeue. Then be shaved his face and his
forehead, polishing , the forehead with the back
of the razor. Then he shaved off one-half of
each eyebrow as.clean as a bone, leaving little
tufts next to the nose; and then Ea - shaveAnas
nose all over carefully, and polished that.
What next be did with this Sun Child, as he
sat upright In a little stool, both feet coiled un
der him, I knew not, for I came away. Why
he shaved the creature at all I could not tell,as
he had no beard. Perhaps he slushed him
with pork fat as a finish. If'so Chang Wo was
ready for business, and would go through yciu
in a trade. '
Some of the old Chinese merchants here are
quite rich; but few own real estate, as it re
quires naturalization in California for that.
Eight hundred Chinamen went out in the
steamer- last week to attend the New Year at
home. They are coming back, and will stir up,
eight thousand more to come to the land of
gold and plenty.
The Chinese merchants here, it is said, deal
fairly, and as they agree—it being the policy of
their great companies to gain the confidence of
the people, and on the ground also that qion
esty is the best policy."
, Life in .the White Pine Silver Mines.
A correspondent of the Boston jounta
writes from Nevada :
"The White Pine • district has a population
of 8,000, made up of all nationalities. Al
though the demand for remunerative labor has
been constantly increasing, the population
during the past•six months has been gradually
decreasing, being now twenty-five per cont.
less than last March. The. rush of last winter
has long since subsided.
"Of this population nearly one-half, or four
thousand, claim a home at Hamilton:, Great
improvements have been made in its buildings
since the warm weather of a hundred days ago
came on, and since luinber made tt - the - nut
Itine, which gives its name to these MountainS,
has fallen from $350 to, $45 per thousand.
Still it is - a crude town, having ouly.Aane- street
graded down and provided with sidewalks. On
this are several structures, of which
the best are offices of the omnipresent Veils,
Fargo & Co., and the Bank of California. Here
also are the leadingSroceries, clothing stores
,kept by the 'inevitable black whiskered Jew,
restaurants and boarding houses. Mord fre
quent than all are the liquor saloons.
"All day long the main thoroughfare is
thronged. There are long trains of asides and
oxen loaded with freight of every kind from
nauthinery and whisky, provisions
and whisky, dry goods and v whisky. The
•
teamsters, who are here called 'bullwhatiters,'

their blankets and 'luggage all the Way' from

"There Was not, however, the strange ex

numbering fifteen, gives twice the work for la,
•borers above what was needed in April, yet the
'population has diminished. • Prospectors have
gone home, and the crowd-don•,the street has
either been starved out or gone to work. A
clergyman, who certainly pught to know, in
,formed me that the mOralS,geod order and de
cency among this newly gathered people• of late
had greatly improved. 1 was glad to know
this, and took the liberty to ; suggest that the
health of the, community would not be en

Spread of rrotestanisur in Meal ea.
Aecording to a corr- valk of N ,
York Observer, Proti
vances in veo,
letter from the capital
"There am 3 now, \in the. City of Mexico, eight
organized. bodies of native. Mexican Evangelical
Christians, converted from the Mexican
Catholic Church. They. have their appointed
places Of public worship, which is conducted
with as much propriety, zeal and simple beauty
as J. have ever witnessed, by reading Scripture,
singing, praying and preaching—teaching that
the Scriptures alone are to be taken as the rule
of Christian conduct, and the inventions of
men, whether as, images of stone, wood, wax
or metal, or the ridiculous imposture of the
Virgin Guadalupe, are to be rejected as idol
atrous.
"In the surrounding country, say within fifty
Miles of the citY, there are ten_or twelve similar
congregations, composed of men and women
who would suffer martyrdom rather than follow
Judas by denying Christ.
"In the state of Zacatecas, several hundred
miles from here, the same great work has a
firm foothold and several congregations.
"In the ancient city of Campeche the
state, of Yucatan, the reformation has made
its impress and promises the most glorious
results.
"Beyond this, I am not sufficiently informed
to speak in detail. But two facts . may be
stated. One is, that there are individual
Evangelical Christians in all parts' of the
Country; praying fOr the spiead of the, gospel.
The other is, that many of the more enlightened
3lexicans, disgusted with the cunning devices
of the Church to keep the mass Of the people in
ignorance dud. supeistation, that they may con
tinue to draw their hard-earned' money from
them, without access to the Bible, and often
stumbling upon Voltaire or some other similar
work,,hav_e_become, and_are.still becoming in-_
ftdels to a greater or less degree. These men,
toO, are generally reSpeCtable, and ardently
deVeted to the liberty of their country as against
priestcraft and tyranny.
''On Sunday last lattended service, forenoon
and night, at one of these evangelical places of
worship. There were present about one
hundred and fifty Mexican men, women and
children. There were probably seventy-five
fbreigners present—Germans, English and
Americans—all meeting together as so many
brethren."
A Flying Tupper
Among the distinguished thedalites of the
clay, it is .pleasant to record the name of M. F.
Tupper. It appeam, from a letter contributed
by'Mr. Thpper to the London Builder; tliarlfe
has long been convinced. of men's capacity
for flying in the air. About a quarter of a
century ago, he says, he wrote an article on
the subject in one of the reviews, advocating
the expediency of wings for everybody. Tup
per has made so many tall flights" himself, in
the bardic sense, that he discerns a Pegasus
in every donkey. His "Proverbial Philoso
phy" had a strange success, chiefly among,
elderly maidens and spasmodic spinsters of
the bilious type, and so it came to pass
that Topper floated himself on his goose
quill in it very satisfactory way, metaphysi
cally speaking, and now he is impetuous to
make a brevet cherub of himself by assuming
material wings. The ideas ventilated on the
subject of soaring, in the Tapperian comma-,
Ilication-referred'tore'lleerdiar:—"Whai-w—e
want," says 'flipper, "is not so much levita
tion as an enlarged and continued power of •
flapping." Then he admits that even the best
educated human muscle is not equal to• this,
and proposes to clothe mankind with_a_systei
offirtifiCial muscles made of cog-wbeels
other coMpliCated machinery. Picture to your
self Tupper thus accoutred. Imagine the rejuve
nated Tupper endowed With."an enlarged and
continued power of flapping." Think of Tupper
as he would appear cleaving the blue expanse at
the head of a wedge-shaped flight of gaggling
spinsters; each of them elegantly attired in cog
wheels and india-rubber bands, and -beating
beating
along to windward with "an enlarged and con
tinued power of flapping." Tupper positively
states that the time is at hand when universal
flap will be the regular order of things. Surely
Topper is one of the "sparks" that ' , fly up
wards." We seem to hear his voice' in the
upper empyrean, as he winds through. it, swan
like, with trumpet-note ; and, as we gaze in
fancy on his daring flight, sometimes urges us
to lift our voice and greet him with a cheery
'Go it, Tupper I—go in and wing !
Operation of a Russian Spy.
A curious book, entitled "Note's : of a 'Spy,":
was lately published at St. Petersburg. These
notes are the memoirs of a Russian sub-officer
named Boulantzoff, who, according to' his own
showing, acted. as a spy for the Russian Gov
ernment during
. the last Polish insurrection.
Having liVed,for ten years in Poland, he had
completely mastered the language, and by this
means and his patriotic professions, he man
aged to obtain the confidence of several of the
instugent leaders, whom he afterwards be
trayed to the Government. lie gives the initials
of these Chiefs, all of Whom have been either
hung or banished, and seems to have taken

of rich landholders in the disguise of an in

and the police with a pretext fbr plunder and
violence of every kind. As might be supposed,
these memoirs are fall of adventure, and their
author seems to have had some very
narrow escapes. Once, as he was walk-,

near the village of
_Zyski, he was attacked by
Cossacks and was preAsed by them so closely'
that he bad to run and hide in some corn; and
as the peasants were thrashing at the time,
and had not seen him, he expected every 'mo

, • Indiana In Montana. ..
William F. Wheeler, United. States Marshal
_at Helena, Montana Territory, has forwarded
to Secretary Cox a - report of the United States
Grand Jury - of - the - Third - ludicial - distri
Montana Territory in regard to robberies and
murders committed upon citizens there by Ks,
-- ilatory - bands of Indians-withirrtbc-past-few
months. The report was sent with a view of
calling attention to the exposed condition
a the people there, and copies were also
forwarded to , Commissioner Parker, to
the commander,,,ef • the military strict,
and -- to - - .Genesal .:.Sully;.-..Superintendent of
Indian matters. 'The i t,l'ort of the Grand
Jury states that it is found from the evidende
of a great number of witnesses that the people
of the Third district have suffered within the
past few months great loss of life and property
from the roving bands of Indians.: They
tr
had been fiis hed • with names of some
nine-or tench -ens_who_bad _been_mitrderecl in
cold blood by t em ; over three hundred bead
of stock bad been stolen within three months,
• and they believed that within six months fully
one thousand horses had been stolen, and a
'number of valuable citizens sacrificed. The
report further says :
The Peegaris, Blciods and Blackfeet, who all
talk. the same language, aid constitute the
Blackfoot Nation, have moved their women .
and children north of Montana, into the Brit-.
ish,possessions, for their safety, and in that
- country have procured supplies,amniunition and
Improved arms. This is a declaratitp of war
upon the whites of Montana, by theseludians,
' and some measure should be adopted for the
. purpose of meeting - the - emergenty. ----- The - chil
authorities have not the means, and our people
are not able to bear the expense of pursuing
murderers who destroy our properties
and lives, and come and go like the
wind. Ours is a eontest betiveen civilizaticin
and barbarism, and we must risk our lives and
opr hard-earned property: to
de.fend —them, unless the_ general gov
ernment • gives us the means of de
fence. To this we are entitled, as we have
' left homes of comfort in the East to plant
eivilization in the wilderness. It is evidence
that the Pen d'Oreilles, who make periodical
journeys from their homes to the valley of, the
Yellow Stone, on hunting expeditions through
some of the settled portions of our territory,
ar4 guilty of horse-stealing, if not murder.
Their passage though our settled valleys should
be prohibited by the authorities. The Crows
murdered two white men near Fort Benton,
about the 20th of July last, and took their
horses to their camp. In none of these cases
of murder and theft have the Indians been pur
sued and punished. Our population is neces
sarily scattered along the valleys, and are isola
ted in mining camps and gulches, and hence
are peculiarly exposed to sudden Warts from
--Indians.
The Grand Jury further stated that their re
port is made in the hope that the proper officers
.of the general government will take the steps
necessary to give them full protection, Or, if
the means in their hands are not adequate, that
they will represent the matter to the heads. of
government here, who have authority and'
means to punish or prevent Indian depreda
tions.
Iticideizto of Eugenie's Welt to Venice.
A Venice correspondent of an English paper
.says
“Among those who bud an interview with
the Empress on board her yacht were the Per
fect, the Syndic, the General of the fortress,
the Admiral, and a number of other officials.
"The Syndic, who bad been decorated by the
Empress the day before, received 2,000 francs
for distribution among the Royal gondoliers,
and 5,000 francs fur the
_'most meritorious of
those persons wholad presented petitions to
her; 800 francs for a company of, street singers
who had serenaded her in a private way, with
100 additional francs for the director ; and a
• very handsome gold locket, ornamented with
pearls and diamonds, for Dllleflossetti, n young
/tidy who sang in the serenades in .company.
with the Signori Bassani, bass and tenor sing
ers, who also received presents. ' ' •
"The papers speak of Mlle. Rosietti as being
an English girl, and since hpf real , name is no
secret, and has riotleen considered So ; b y the
manager • of the , theatre where she, sang a few
nights ago, in the opera of the etuano in Mas
chera,' I mention it svithoM scruple. Be it
kmown, therefore, that Mlle. Rossetti and Miss
Brennen sire one and • the • s a me person. The
latter, when pointed out to,the Empress, attract
ed by, her , great beauty: the young
lady, being in a gondola ; the former made an
equally ,favorable impression by her pretty
soprano' oice, as clear as a bell, whichsounded
afar off,like the notes of some prima donna
singing in the sky,,as the lark sings at break of
day is EnglishlVOiee-being the_ most - effect
ive of all upon the Water. ' The Empress, who,
doubt, rettieinliered - her visit to England
several years ago, was glad to meet a daughter
. of Albion on the Lagoons,' and. talked about
her to the Syndic and other persons, all of
which facts are matters of gossip in theeaffes.
"Another story is told with equal , gusto. It
is thestory of the Ferryboat. Her Majesty
dismissed her gondoliers on.uesday night and
hired a common harm di traghetto, or ferry
boat, which can be hired at, seventy-five cent r
times ('ltd:) an hour. She made a little tour
of, about twenty rninnte9, .accompanied. by
Prince Murat, and then landed at a terry near
the Merceria iu order to go on foot to this Piazza
San Marco through the back streets: She paid
the boatman twenty francs, and the .fortunate.
fellow, recognizing the Empress, bowed to the
anst—l mean- to the water-to express, his.,
thanks. When he had recovered his upright
poSition the lady was gone; but:a gentletnan
who stood in the place she had just, occupied
tapped him on the shoulder and asked him how
much he would take for the two cushions..
They were the cushions of the boat: The boatA.
man laughed in his face. 'I will give you
twenty francs,' said the stranger. The • boat
man looked serious. 'You shall have thirty,'
said the stranger. The bargain, was closed.
The boatman pocketed the thirty francs '
and
the gentleman, whose nationality had not been
discovered, though it is said he is a foreigner,
walked away with his two cushions. Is he
the gentleman who offered a - hundred francs
for the Empress's - pocket-handkerchief? Some
people think he hails from- the British Isles,
'others that he is a Yankee."
An Alarmlua Branch of Study.
Some very ardent students of physiology are
now engaged oh what they call "Experimental
ilelminthology,", which seems to mean the
cultivation of parasites in the human bixly and
in other animals; for the purpose of tracing
their habits and . the effects they produce.
Even poor Polonius was only invited to supper
—"not where he eats, but where he is eaten"
—after he had ceased to have any use of his
own flesh and blood; arid any "convocation of
politic worms" that propose lo hold a diet over
us might wait, one would think, as long.' Brit
those who happen to have an "experimental
helminthologist" in their families have no
chpl,_!:4 4 ,ie will be making them subjects of
whether they_w•ill or not...
