He ,purchased this drama from the widow of the late Jos._Smassz, an Ainerican actor.who had made, a deeislediy favorable impression :at the •Adelphi Theatre, in London, and had commis sioned a playwright, named Mr. TOM Tama, to write a,drama for him, in which a Yankee visiting England should figure very extensive ly., It will be understood, of course, that Mr. ,Sturess excelled in the, grotesque delineation of what is called it Yankee character,"--;-aline whieb,. whether natural or theatrical, was wholly new to Mr. Toss T.trzoa. , According ly, Mr. 8114.8111 gave him hints, ideas, dialect, traits, and so ea, with which to build up the part which he desired to perform. The • result yea the amusing tinusitt'of " par AMerican Cousin," In which the principal port is that of Asa Treschard, a pretty hard Vermonter, with a large heart in the , right place.

A final vote was taken in the Penneylvania Senate yesterday upon the new police bill which had been vetoed by Governor PACKER, and as it did not obtain the requisite support of two-thirds of the members present, it failed to become a law. Tho vote, as might natu .. rally have boon expected tinder the circum stances, was a,strictly partisan ono. ' There can be no rational doubt that the good of the community requires that our police force should be permanent in its character. The general change of policemen, consequent upon every political revolution in our elections for Mayor, is an unmitigated evil. The number of applicants for these stations not unfre quently reaches from seven to ten thousand men, who neglect their usual avocations to , engage in struggles for appointments, and in nine cases out of ten are certain to be unsuc ' cessful ; and the new appointees, being unfit , miller with their duties, make for a time but poor conservators of the peace and guar dians of the property of the city. Those who, after acting as policemen for trio years, and thus rendering their former avocations distasteful, and becoming familiar with many different phases of vice and crime in tha discharge of their official duties—when they find themselves suddenly thrown out of office—are left in a truly - pitiable condition in many instances, and are exposed to peculiar temptations, which, if they have not a strong sense of moral rectitude, are overpowering. Besides, when from eight to ten thousand men of either party are expectants of appointments as policemen, and a band of eighteen thousand offlee-seekers are thus induced to regard our municipal elections as contest!, in which they have - a deep personal interest, we must not be astonished at the fierceness of the straggles which ensue, or the frauds and iniquitous in- strumentalities resorted' to to secure success. But while the best interests of the city, as well as of the great mass of the aspi rants for places as policemen, would be served by investing our police force With a permanent character, in inaugurating this lin- I portant reform, care should betaken to do jus tice to all parties; and inasmuch as the politi cal contests of the last ton years show that Philadelphia is nearly equally divided between the; Democratic party and the organizations antagonistic to it, and inasmuch as there are a number of good trained policemen of both parties who have become familiar with their duties under the opposition administrations of COMSAT. and Maas, and under the Demo cratic administration of Vans, it would be but eat and fair, that a police force should be made up of a nearly equal number of members of each party, and that any new police board %id may be organized should not be animated by Proscriptive o partisan animosities, but bo as equally balanced, politically, as possible. The bill recently vetoed by the Governor was grossly unjust to the Democratic party of this city. The Legislature should have re• membered that, white itiosimportant that our police force should be brrested with a perma nent character, the reform, to bo just and per manent, should be fairly inaugurated. Itali2n Opera. Last night the Academy was crowded. &Went ly Passion Week has not much effect on the musi cal taste of the city. There was, however, curiosity to compare all the lifarthae with this youngest of all Manilas. The snore is entirely in Mlle Patti's voice, but the style of music is not calculated to display the qualities for which she is celebrated, and by which she is indeed wonderful among singers--her great facility. " The Last Rose of Summer," of course, produced its usual effect, and more so, as in the encore she repeated the romance in English—an innovation not in atriot good taste, but, of course, taking. As an English country girl Adelina looked like Rude Red Riding Rood. She acted with great eimplicity and ease. Martha hiss been very fortunate In her representatives hero— Johannson, Lagrange, Colson. Not only were these ell great artists, but Martha was one of the best parts of all these three cantatrioes, all finished ar tists, all artiste and women of experience. It is, therefore, not to be wondered at if Patti, pretty and agreeable as she was, effaced none of the past me mories. Brignoli woe warmly welcomed. The enthusiasm of the evening was decidedly for Brig non. Junco, though of course be sang the music correctly, did not produce any particular effect in pail which Posmea made so brilliant and in which Banli was so excellent. The opera was considerably curtailed, perhaps judiciously for the singers, but the audience missed the duet between the basso and tenet, and the scene of the tenor in the last act—the opera, with out it, being brought to a sudden and most abrupt oonotaston. About this evening's performances we have only a few words to say. 3fadame,oolson, that the roughly-reliable vocalist, who never disappoints an audience, who is at once gifted and unpresu ming, and who racily takes a dual and farewell benefit, ought to, be strongly encouraged., Years may elapse before we have a prima donna Ake her, singing admirably, acting spiritedly, dressing in -the simple perfectionef correct taste, and poi sesaing Personal (therms in Ile limited degree. She has never been made half enough of In this city— and we shall not pause to inquire whether, and why, the management have kept her bank, or why the publics have not fallen into raptures about her, aa they did to far inferior singers. Sho ought to have a crowded home this evening, as a personal not less than a professional tribute. The opera is "The Sicilian Vespers," which is, gorgeous show piece, and Madame Opleen will sustain the tele of the Duchess, as before. We hike leaye to say that, without in the slightest degree compromising his dignity, Signor Brignoll might have shown his respect for Madame Colson, by sustaining his for mer character in this opera, which Signor Stigolli will this evening take. His not doing so appears a little ungracious. Stigelli, however, is a careful and good singer, end the part will be oaf() with him. Newspaper News.

Correnvondenoe of The Prima Wlettriratort, April 4,1880 When ,President Piercei returned from Europe, he said to hie friends, that while he had greatly enjoyed his trip he labored all the time under the emberrassment of being an ex-President of the United States at the early age of fifty-four. Whereverhe went he marled the honor and dignity of the °Moo with him, and ho was compelled to foel that the eyes of all strangers and Americans Abroad were steadily fixed upon him. There aro many reasons against electing very young men to the Presidency—quite as many, indeed, as are ad mitted to operate spinet the election of very old men. General class Is rapidly approaching hie eightieth year, and yet he performs a vast amount of labor, and is conscientious in the dlseliarge of all his duties. Mr. Buobanan will, I think, be sixty-seven or sixty-eight on the 234 of this April. Age has dealt more heavily with him than with moat men. It has left him a strong constitution, but made hint irritable, peevish, and suspi cions. Judge Douglas is the oldest young man on the list. lie will forty-six on the 21st of April, but his mTnd is a storehouse of learning, statesmanship, and experience,. lie has been in publio life more than a quarter of 'a century, having begun his remarkable career just as be entered manhood. Ile was' a county judge when almost a boy, then a member of the Legisla ture:then United States District Attorney, then a judge of the Supreme Court, and from /844 to 1880 bus ()templed leading positions in both' brambles of Congress. lie knows, to-day, more than most men who survive to twice his age. Should he beehosen President, however, he will not be fifty-one at the expiration of his first tonal. Mr. l3reekinridge, who has so many friends in your region and throughout the country, in not yet thiriy.nine, and will , there fore be about forty-four (should he ba chosen Pie stunt), at the expiration of his four years. 'He la bors under other disadvantages, as compared with ledge Douglas. Ho has been but a short time in public life, and (although one of tho luckiest men, having just been chosen to the Unttod States Senate for eixyears from the fourth of March next,) could afford-to wait, enlarge his experience, and tike his chances in the future, without discredit to himself or loss to his country. There is more in this idea of electing men who are too young to the Presi. dency than appears at first sight, and those to whom nu boon delegated the duty of nominating the De mocratic candidate should not reject so prime &con sideration. On the mike° of things in Virginia, it would I appear that Mr. Hunter is the favorite of the Old, Dominion, and that Henry A. Wise, lately so bel ligerent, has subsided without making Namely a sign of protest Those, however, who think that the gallant en,Governor will quietly surrender to his rival and antagonist, misunderstand his en tirely. He will not allow Mr. Hunter to carry off the palm without a bold anti characteristic struggle. Mr. Hunter Is among the moat timid and irresolute of public men, and Henry A. Wise among the most courageous and resolitto„ Hunter has few or no claims upon the Northern POMO*. orawy ; Wise has ,many. Hunter is censervative t, except on the subject of slavery ; Wise aggres sive and progressive at all times, and on all Jones. Mark the predietion—the South never oan be waited upon Hunter, and I believe it may be also safely prophesied that tho internecine warfare ameng the aspirants of that part of the Union will at last in duce them to 'combine in favor of a Northern can didate for the Presidenoy. " The Washington Constituttott" is unquestionably for General Joo Lane, of Oregon, and I think present appearances clearly foreshadow that if the secessionists and Ad ministrationiets cannot g et a Southern favorite, they will ask the Northern Democracy to agree upon General Lane, because he has gone to the ut termost extreme against Douglas and his friends. In this glance into the future, however, it must not be forgotten that Mr. Buchanan is 'himself by nomeans willing to give up the price without an effort. He will be nada& with nothing less than a eompli mentary vote from the united South, and if, while this vote is being thrown, be could rally his Milo holders, who aro in the Convention, to 4oln with the Synth, the compliment might end in a sub. stantial renomination. By tke way, it is stated that the President is ex ceedingly indignant that Mr. &hell, the collector of New York, should have admitted, before the Covode committee, that he sent thirty thousand dollars into Pennsylvania in 1800. That there was a large amount spent in that campaign by both parties everybody knows, and in the coming aloe- Son hundreds of thousands will be spent; in the same way.. But Mr, Buchanan's ire was 'roused lest the country would conclude that be had given Mr. Scholl the important office of collector of Now York bemuse he had raised this large fund. 4 number of persons holding contracts from the Administration, as well as many who aro in office under it, have taken ears to have themselves elected delegates to Charleston in order to protect themselves against the malice of the President, Or the intrigues of his Cabinet. Nearly all the lead ing office-holders in New York,-Fowler, Sobel!, Jerrettbico.—are on the roll; several fippag; among the delegates from New Jersey; the collector of Massachusetts has bad hlut.self chosen, and in 41%*--aelegestion-ir bonded down with these men. Among the contractors who go to Charleston es delegates, I notice the names of W. it. N. Swift, interested in the celebrated live-oak contracts, and Charles Heebner, Esq., a native of Pennsylvania, but resident at Lee, Massachusetts. who is connected with John Ride, of -your city; in supplying the marble for the extension of the Ca pitol and Treasury buildings. Swift announces himself for Breokinridge, and Heebner holds his tonne, hearts the news, and makes promises to. nobody. It is stated hero that Mr. Buchanan re fused to see Collector Schell after he had given his testimony before the Covode committee, :ultiob t ff true, shows that nobody can hug be a favorite with the present bead of the nation, exempt James Gordon Bennett.
