Sunday Edition. October 22 r MsClfown and Pantaloon, and the brothers and sisters Kiralfy are agile and p easing Harlequins and Colum bines. Little Jenny Yeamans, as me Giri of the Period,” fairly takes the house by storm; rnd Herr Willio performs some very difficult feats in an ex tremely easy manner. The Murtons provide an en tertainment which is at once p easing and unique, and six encores seem scarcely to satisfy the demands of their auditors. Their ‘‘Cat Duet” is certainly cleverly ten lered and thorough y appreciated. The infant prodigies, Venus and Adonis, per.orm on the velocipede with the ease or veteran bycic lists, and the skill which they exhibit in ihe management of those machines is astonishing. Signor Casedi per forms on the slack Wire as though it camo natural to him; and the comical Parisian grotesques have cre ated a marked sensation. “Humpty Dumpty” is the pantomime of the period. Matinees on Wednes day and Saturday. 1 Wood’s Museum'—“ The Octoroon” has been produced at this theatre in a style even surpassing .Its former production in New York, and with a cast certainly equal to any we have seen. Mr. John L. -Hall gives u olever and toiling impersonation of the kind-heartod, love smitten Salem, Scudder, and Mrs. Hall, as Zoe, has proved singularly successful. Mrs. Hall is an actress whose every impersonation suc geeds in pleasing, and as the persecuted, unfortunate •cteroon, her acting is really charming. The Oc toroon” will be continued during the present week, and will bo followed by the romantic drama, “The Gunmaker of Moscow.” At the matinees, the beau tiful melodrama entitled The Gipsy Farmer” will be presented; and, in addition, a novelty oi an as stonishing nature will also form part of the enter tainment. This is nothing more or less than the appearance 5f a giant and a dwarf in the same piece. -‘Long Brother John” will introduce Major Lang, the Ber muda giant, and Col. Stocking, the dwarf. This should prove a great attraction, and be productive oi genuine and hearty fun. On Monday, 30th, Master Percy Roselle, the cele brated English boy actor, wilt make his first appear ance tn the drama of The Boy Detective.” I Bowery Theatre.—Mr. Joseph Murphy, the celebrated protean actor and character impersonator, made his first appearance on Monday evening in Fred G. Maeders play ‘He u.” We have frequently had occasion to commend Mr. Murphy’s acimg in this piece, and at the Bowery Tuoatre during the week our favorable opinion has been fully endorsed. He p ays Irish, Dutch, and American characters with like .ease, sings comic ditties with much unctuous humor, and dances, well if not like Bonfanti, at least in an equally amusing manner. His bones solo is also very cleverly rendered, and his entire perform ance exiremely amusing. The support accorded, him is p?.r .icularly good, and the p ay is produced with all the thrilling eeusatfonal effects, including the great paraffin explosion scene. Mr. Murphy will remain at tiie Bowery lor some time longer, and during his stay the theatre is likely to bo largely pa tronised. At the conc.usion of his engagement, an entirely new and original iocai play. expressly written for the establishment by Mr. Lewis F. S.o.ler, ami entitled Searching the Depths, or the New York De tective,” wi ibe produced. In it will be introduced sensations thoroughly new io ths stage, and the plot and incidents are of a most exciting nature. Help” matinee on Saturday. Union Square Theatre.—Emma Alford, a most charming and accom uiisucd comedienne, has been added to the company, and her vocal and terp sichoreau entertainments have been favorably re ceived. She is much more refined add pleasing hi stylo than lady serio-comics us .tally are, and conse quently excelientiy suited io this theatre. The peer less Bonfanti trips it on the light fantastic toe in a manner that must be seen to bo believed, and the applause bestowed upon her is unlimited. The Mat thews to increase in public estimation but that is not to be surprised at, seeing that the r performances are tru y wonderin'. Ashcroft a.?.d Morton sing and dance with great acceptance, and Fred. Foster has iacrod iced quite a new budget o very entertaining songs. Hughoy Dougnerty’s re marks on “Topics of the Doy” invariably produce the heartiest laughter, and his local hits prove sin gularly effective. Leffingweil has appeared in his great specialty, Romeo Jaffier Jenkins,” and con tributed materially to the success of the programme. Mr. Leffingweil is a really good comedian, and while on the stage never fails to excite the risibility of his audience to an alarming extent. He was excellent y supported by Mr, W. P. Sheiuon, Miss Howitt. Miss Ke soy and Lizzie Wilmore, who ware each suited with congenial parts. To-morrow evening, John Brougham’s burlesque, “Pocahontas,” will be presented with an excellent cast and beautiful scenery. Powhatan will, we are sure, have an excellent representative in Mr. M. W. Leffingweil; Belle Howitt will make an attractive Pocahontas; Lizzie Wilmore a fascinating Capthin John Smith; and Lizzie Kelsey a very excellent Poo tee-pet. Hughey Dougherty will illustrate the pow ers of “Laughing Gas,” and Mlles. Bonfanti and Bertha will appear in the ballet. Matinees Wednes day and baturday. Theatre Comique.—This popular little house was re-opened on Monday evening, under the management of Mr. Josh Hart, with a powerful and carefully selected company. The Comique is now one of the handsomest and most comfortable of our City places of amusement, and filled as it has been each evening since its opening, presents a gay and pleasing appearance. Among the company are sev eral exceedingly popular favorites, who were each on their appearance warmly welcomed. Johnny Wild and Larry Tooley were very amusing in the sketches and farces in which they appeared, and the Dutch eccentricities of the latter were as successfully ren dered an ever. Ben Wheeler and Eliso De Courcy rendered the sketch “Barney’s Courtship” very ac ceptably. and proved them&eives clever actors and vocalisis. The Carles appeared in the ballet “The Rivals,” and Johnny Wild. Larry Tooley, James Bradley and Master Martin, danced the Olodoche Quadrille. Kitty O’Neil’s jig dancing was enthu siastically a?p,auded, and Master Martin succeeded in pleasing with Alia negro eccentricities. Master Bennie Wheeler is one of the best juvenile cor vocalists we have ever heard. Ho sings .and acts wlin apparent ease, and seems likely to become a groat favorite with the Theatre Comiquors. Lon A. Meyers performed on three instruments at one time, a feat waich was much applauded, and the Arabia Brothers appeared in their acrobatic entertainmv ;l with their usual success. Mr. C. White, m com,-.;- I ment to Mr. Hart, appeared in the farce of “Alia:••■-.y j Couple,” and by his excellent acting and ccrni" d manner kept the audience in a continual roar cf I laughter. Mr. Frank Dillon’s facial contortions were positively repu sive, and wo should advise bi.-a to drop them. The orchestra is exceedingly sire n.:, and under the direction of Mr. Wannemaciier, nightly renders choice selections in a pleasing man ner. The St. Felix Ballet Troupe, Ada Wray, the Femafo Minstrels, and Jenny Hugues. will make their first appearance to-morrow evening, and two new farces, one by Win. F. Howe, entitled “The Mayor’s Arrest.” in which Larry Tooley will impersonate O. K. Hall, and another by John F. Poole, entitled “The Man ager’s Trials.” Matinees Wednesday and Saturday. Globe Theatre.—The Globe Theatre re opened on Monday evening with a large and pov .r- ful company, which will be considerably increa c 1 £his week by the acquisition of Messrs. Wm. Anin*/- I ton, J.

Negro minstrelsy with, of coiir comic sketches and farces, also finds a place in he programme, and good-natured fuu is never fo absent from Harry’s Varieties theatre. SCRAPS MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC.

Much interest is felt in musical circl a 1 the aeout of Miss Mattie Lynch, a Newark resident uni I ef Signor Nicolao’s, who will mftko uer dtbm. A few weeks since, the daily papers pub lished a story of the starvation of a boy by Mons. D’Ata ne, the Man with the Iron Jaw,” and Mad. D’Angela, tne great lady athlete. An investigation into the cir cuinstaEcas of tne case, by the authorities of New Mil ford. Conn., showed that the boy bad not bean starved, and that during the attaok of dianhea which ended in I his death he received good medical treatment and the Lest of care and nursing. This is the first allusion we have made to this sensational story, as we felt convinced i from the start that it would prove false. We are aware I how prone certain papers are to attribute the very worst motives to people connected with the stage or circus, i and accept the silliest stories as true, provided such stones exhibit either stage or circus iu an objectionable light; therefore, we published nothing about the matter until now, when we are pleased to state that Mons. D Afalie and Mad. Angola have been proved entirely guiltless of the boy’s death. Mr. and Mrs. Fred McEvoy having conclud ed a wonderfully successful engagement at Tony Pas tor’s Opera House, in this city, loave to-morrow for Bos i ton. Mr?McEvoy is an Trisa comedian and vocalist of great humorous ability, and .Mrs. McEvoy is an exoeod i talented and pleasing actress. They are sure to be grevt favorites with the Bostonians. We understand that Mr. E. 0. Wright, the gentlemanly and popular treasurer of Kelly and Leon’s Minstrel company i open to negotiate for a similar posi tion in any first-class theatre or comvany. Air. Wright has long been known as one of the most competent men connected with the profession, and any manager fiaving an opening, could noLsecure a better official. The Chicago disaster Jias caused great changes in the arrangements of the traveling companies throughout the country. Several of them have been already broken up, and it is feared tnat many of the managers will be thoroughly ruined, it being difficult so late in the season to fill up the time vacant by t-eir projected Chicago engagements being broken. A grand sacred concert was given in Utica on Thursday evening last, for the benefit of the German Gataqho (Oapuobin) churcn; the chair being aided by Signor E. Bianchi and Signor BaseJi, of the Italian Opera Company, of California, beta of whom elicited quite a furore in the Stabat Mater.

The Chicago nine will play their game on ths Union grounds, having declined the proffered use of the Capi toline grounds for that purpose. MUTUAL vs ATHLETIC (of Philadelphia). On Friday, the Mutuals of this city and the Athletics cf Philadelphia played an exhibition game on the Union ground. Williamsburgh, for the benefit of the Chicago sufferers. Owing to the limited publicity which the an nouncement of this game received, and the disagreeable state of the weather, there was a very small attendance of spectators on the ground. A similar benefit for the same puiyiose bad been given by those clubs on Thurs day, in Philadelphia, and. we understand, realized a handsome sum. On the ground on Friday were several of the sufferers by the late disaster, in the persons of several of ti e White Stocking nine, all of whem lost everything they were possessed of excepting the clothes in which they stood. They were endeavoring to borrow uniforms enough to enable them to play the first game of their Championship series with the Haymakers, at Troy, yesterday, and we belisve they obtained a few from the Eckford nine. The members of the Mutual Club would willingly have rendered them any assistance in this respect had they not been under the necessity of using them themselves yesterday, in their game with the Stars, of Brooklyn. Cumifiungs, of the Stars, was to have pitched for the Mutuals, and Martin, of the Eck fords, was to perform the same duty for the Athletics, but Cummings did not put in an appearance, and Zett -1 -in. the present pitcher of the Chicago Club, kindly volunteered to give them a specimen of his old Atlantic skill.: Treac.y, of the Chicago nine, played second base for the Atheltics. "Wood, Pinkham, and soma other members of the Chicago nine, were present, along with the Secretary of the club, Mr. Thacher. The game was announced for 2:30; but, owing to one or two unavoid able delays, it did not commence till 3:35. There was a very high wind prevailing, which raised groat clouds of dust, and filled the eyes and mouths of the spectators and players, and making every one as uncomfortable as possible. The game opened well, giving promise of a close and exciting con test! but Mutes began to forge ahead, and the air becoming more bitterly cold every minute, almost incapacitated the players from catching the ball, or even handling-the bat. The Philadelphians suffered more severely from the cold than the Mutuals, and that materially interfered with their efficiency in the field. The following is the score ATHLETIC. IB7tB. PO. A.

The first match, June 8, resulted in the success of the Fly aways, by a score of 14 to 13. The lapse of four months may teem a rather lengthy intermission, but it must be remembered that the return game has more than once been put off by unfavorable weather. The nines were on the ground at the usual time, and at 3:15 P. M. play commenced. The Flyaways were short three of their regular nine, and the Silver Stars one—the former being obliged to take the field with only eight men. In the first inning the Flyaways scored a single, Clack beirfg the lucky one. Both were white washed in the second, but in the third the Silver Stars get in one run, thus getting even. Wadsworth, for the I■’’jaways, got over the plate in the fifth and eighth in nings, the three runs thus scored being all that were made by the Flyaways. On the other side, the Silver Stars scored but two, the game being thus remarkable for one of the lowest scores on record. The high wind that prevailed and the chilly atmosphere somewhat in terfered with the batsmen, and this impediment, com bined with the very effective stylo in which the ball was delivered to the bat, made free hitting almost impossi ble. On the winning side, Bestio, Jolly and Wadsworth did most of the work—tho two former making remarka ble catches, as also did Shevlin and Duffy. Donohoe, Karcey and Crane supported their positions on the side of the Silver Stars in a most creditable manner. Both pitchers handled the bah in a m asterly style, and it is needless to say each received good support from the en tire field. At the end of the game, the competing nines were loudly cheered by the croad present. The umpir ing was impartial, and in every way satisfactory—Mr. Lannigan strictly enforcing the new rules.

The following divorce suit has all the -elements of the New York style of‘doing the thing. Both parties are of the “fast” order, and belong io that class of society. This is the way the story runs: John Christie was “A FAST YOUNG MAN ABOUT TOWN.” He was good-looking, dressed well, wore a diamond ring on the little finger of hi 3 loft hand, and a dia mond pin in the snowy folds of his shirt-bosom. He was something of a Ward politician in the Seven teenth, was “hail fellow well met” with “the boys,” and, of course, run a gin-mill. The machine was located on Second street, near tbo Bowery. Here “the boys,” friends of Johnnie Christie’s, used to congregate nightly and talk over the political status of the Ward, and how Tammany and the old thing” was woikipg generally. Where there were so many of “the boys,” of course, the girls” were very frequently the subject of conversation. “I say, Johnny,” said Bill Cahill, one Summer evening, about seven years ago, to Christie, who, in his shirt-sleeves, was behind the bar mixing a num ber of glasses of fragrant mint-juleps for the crowd, I saw ONE OF THE PRETTIEST GIRLS down in Tompkins square, this afternoon, you ever laid your eyes on—as fresh and rosy as a peach.” A laugh followed this speech, and the boys'’ inti mated that Billy was clean gone, and that he was a soft duffer,” who didn’t know what he was talking about; as if it were a strange thing to see a pretty girl in Tompkins square. “Pretty girls may be seen there any afternoon,” said Christie, as he stuck two straws into each glass of julep, and pushed them in front of the customers waiting at the bar to drink them. “I know all that,” said Billy, “but you take a stroll with me down there to-morrow afternoon, and I’il show you a girl that’s handsomer than any girl you ever saw there before.” AH right,” replied Christie, I’il go.” The next afternoon the two, rigged out in their nobbiest attire, were airing themselves, and looking for the new beauty of Tompkins square. Presently Billy said, “There she is!” and they placed them selves in their moat slatuesque attitude to observe her as she passed. Miss Josephine Brunner was, undoubtedly, a very beautiful girl. SHE WAS JUST EIGHTEEN, with a clear complexion and bright, laughing eyes, out of which she glanced mischievously at the young men as she sailed by. Her form was molded like that of Psyche, and its evolutions as she walked were as graceful as those of a young poplar swayed by a gentle breeze. “By George, Billy,” said Christie, “she’s a pretty girl, and no mistake! Let us follow her, and see 1 where she puts up.” They did follow her, at a safe distance, and ob- tained her name and address. In the course of a month, Johnny Christie had sought an introduction, and was head over heels in love. Miss Brunner’s father was a respectable Ger- 1 man musician, and tho family lived in comfortable 1 circumstances. 1 Time passed on, and John Christie and Miss Jo sephine Brunner were married August 29, 1864. In three month#’ time the young couple found that they were unsuited to each other. Miss Josephine de veloped into A REGULAR COQUETTE. She was too fond of young men’s company, and Johnny became very jealous of her. The sequel will prove that he bad good reason for being so. They cou’d not live together happily, and they separated. A few weeks ago Christie brought suit for divorce before Judge McCunn, who appointed t James F. Morgan, Esq., as referee.

CUSTOMS OF THE COUNTRY, How a Blasted Britisher Was Post ed in American Manners. A Supper and Relations of Terri ble Exploits, “HOT SO SAD AS WE SEES®.” A few days ago an English actor arrived in New York, who had never been in this country before. He was a thorough-bred cockney from London,, and was naturally of a somewhat timid disposition, fie had heard and read many stories of «the violent and bloodthirsty dispositions of Americans how that, upon the slightest disagreement, it was a common thing for them to ond the dispute by resorting to pistols and knives, and shoot and haek each other to pieces. These stories produced a deep’impression upon him, and ho was fully convinced of their truth fulness. The Englishman had a letter of introduc tion to the dramatic editor of one of our weekly papers, who quickly learned how the cockney’s mind was influenced by tho terrible stories he had heard of the DESPERATE AND BLOODY'CHARACTER of Americans generally. The dramatic editor, who is fond of practical jokes, at once saw an opportunity for amusoment at the expense of the Englishman, and at the same time remove these false impressions from his mind. “The stories that you have heard,” said the dra matic editor, “are true. The Americans are'the most quarrelsome and bloodthirsty people I ever saw. I have Leon in this country about ton years, and It would taka me all night to tell you of the BLOODY ENCOUNTERS I have witnessed. I have been mixed up in five shooting and stabbing scrapes myself. I always carry a pistol with me when I go out,” at tho same time tho editor lifted up his desk-lid and patted affectionately a shining Colt’s revolver which was lying inside, and remarked, “'That’s my pet Tom my has saved my life more than once, I can tell you.” “Tommy Who is Tommy?” inquired the Eng lishman. “Tommy is the name I have given my pistol,” was the reply. The actors used to trouble ma a good deal when I first went on tho paper. If I criticised any of them a littlo severely at times, they would com© down here and demand satisfaction, and if I refused to give it to them, they would THREATEN TO HORSE-WHIP me on sight. I got tired of that sort of thing, and determined to put a stop to it, and this was the way 1 did it. I recollect tho circumstance well, although it occurred flvo years ago. In speaking of the acting of a young follow at Niblo’s, I chanced to Bay that he was a “stick,” meaning that ho was a dull, stupid actor. Such epithets am common, you know, and wo think nothing of thorn. >24 Shift follow was thin skinned, and tho next day after ths papsr appeared he camo down here, and wanted to know what I meant. I had bought “Tommy” that very w.ek, and I immediately yanked him out, and answered his question by blazing away at him. Fortunately, the ball did not perforate his carcass; it only passed through his coat-sleeve, and buried itself in the wall by the window -there, just behind you. He did not give me an opportunity to fire another shot at him, for he quickly made tracks down the stairs. I would have finished him, I think, at the next pop if he had remained. Since that time the actors have never demanded explanations from me.” The Englishman then took his departure, pro foundly impressed with the DANGEROUS CHARACTER OF THE PEOPLE among whom he had come. The next day he- called again. In the meantime the dramatic editor had to’d his brother editors all about the Englishman, and what had been said on the sanguinary character of Americans at their in terview the day bolore., A plot was concocted be tween the editors to have some fun. There were four of them, and each one obtained a knite or pistol. The pistols were strapped around their waists, and the knives were stuck up their sleeves. When the Englishman called, an invitation was given him by the party to accompany them out and have some lunch. The Englishman accepted, and the party proceeded to a Broadway saloon and restaurant, the bartender of which was posted and admitted into the conspiracy. After some edibles had been disposed of, the party stepped up to the bar and called for drinks. While they were being prepared, the conversation was purposely turned on the subject of the personal affrays in which each one had been engaged at different times. The stories they told were BLOODY AND TERRIBLE. The chief editor had been one of the principals in five duels, in three of which he had killed his man, and in tho remaining two he had only winged his adversaries. Other engagements, of the rough-and tumble order, had been so numerous that he could not remember them all, in which ears and noses had been chewedfoff and eyes gouged out in an indis criminate way. After little affairsfof that kind the boy swept up tbo debris, and the fight was over. Nothing more would bo thought about it. The Englishman ventured to remark that, “Blast my heyes! but this is a bloody country.” What’s that you say said the news editor, a duck-legged little felloyv, with flashing black eyes. I’m an American, sir! What do you mean by call ing my country a bloody country, sir?” and the lit tle, martial-appearing news editor stood in a defiant attitude, with his right hand resting on tho handle of his-pistol, which he had half drawn from its case. THE ENGLISHMAN APOLOGIZED for his inadvertent remark, and tho others were sure that he meant nothing insulting, and so the matter was anftcably adjusted. Drinks were had all around. After the Englishman had drank his whisky cocktail, another glass of the same beverage was pushed up in front of him. “No, thank you,” said he; “I’ve just drank my glass.” “No you have not,” said an assistant editor; that’s your cocktail; why don’t you drink it “But I’m sure I have drank mine,” he replied. “Do you doubt my veracity?” bellowed the as sistant editor, as he drew a long knife out of his sleeve. “No, no, certainly not.” A4id the Englishman tossed off the second glass of cocktail at ona gulp. Two of the editors then fell into a pretended diffi culty in relation to the charms of a certain prima donna. The wordy duel was terminated by a mutual understanding that they would fight the next morn ing at Hoboken, with pistols, at twenty paces apart, each advancing upon the other and firing as they ad vanced. The Englishman was much alarmed. It was easy to perceive that he would gladly get away, if he could do so without offending anyone. One of the party observing his pallor, drew him to one side, and in a confidential tone told him that if he got into any difficulties during the evening he (the editor) would be his friend, and see him through. That only increased his terror. The possibility of a hole being bored through him or a knife stuck into his abdomen was, then, not improbable. His imagina tion pictured the various calamities which might be fall him. The Englishman thanked his friend, and said that he did not wish any one to see him through, or see through him, He had an engagement to meet a manager concerning an engagement, and must posi tively leave. Oh, no,” said the editor, We propose having a night of it, and you must form one of the party. If you get into any difficulty, I’ll stand by you. They’ll have to WALK OVER MY DEAD BODY to attack you.” The Englishman insisted that he must leave, and keep his engagement with the manager. But the party would not permit him to go. One or two more sham quarrels were gotten up, and after he had been frightened nearly out of his wits, the whole plot was revealed to him, and the party in dulged in much hiliarity at the ludicrous scenes which had been enacted. The Englishman is now thoroughly convinced that m the Emigrant Department of th estate of New York. Upon this suggestion the officers and employes of this department, and other parties connected with it, have made up a subscription, tho amount of which I herewith enclose to you, to be. app.ied in the manner which may seem to you most judicious. It gives me much pleasure to bo able to say that the officers and employes, almost without exception, added their contributions. 1 I am, sir, very respectfully yours, Bernard Cassbuly, Superintendent. P. S.—Since this subscription was commenced, news has been received (hat similar misfortune has come upon the people of Michigan and Wisconsin, in portions of those States chiefly populated by European e r {grants. In view of the generous response which has been made from ail quarters to alleviate tie distress at Chicago, it has been sug gested that it might oe wall to devote the enclosed amount to the benefit of these other sufferers, who have equal claims upon us, and who for the moment may not be considered. Law Department, Office of Counsel to tho Corporation, October 20th, 1871. Dear Sir; I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of October 19th, enclosing a check for $1,409, being the contribution of the officers and employees of the Emigrant Department of the State of New York, at the Emigrant Depot, Castle Garden, for the relict of the sufferers by the late fires in the Western States. This action on the part of yourself and the other officers in Castle Garden, is generous, timely, and worthy of high commendation, and as President of the Commission, I thank you. I take leave to add, on my own part, a sum which will raise the amount to $1,600. I noi.e the suggestion in the postscript to your let ter, and concur with you therein. In the general enthusiasm of liberality toward those who have suf fered by the Chicago fire, there is a possibility that the poor people in Wisconsin and Michigan, whose sufferings are no less entitled to pity and relief, may be forgotten or neglected. I shall therefore send SBOO to the Governor of Wisconsin and SBOO to the Governor of Michigan, with the request that they will apply as much of the money as may be necessary to meet the wants of newly arrived emigrants, who will no doubt be among the greatest sufferers by the disasters. Yours truly, Richard O’Gokman, Pres., &c. Bernard Casserly, Esq., Supr. Castle Garden. LIST OF SUBSCRIBERS.

Crowley,is a fair widow of thirty-five, living at 166 Orchard street, charged Albert Bruner and Henry Bayard, two young men living in the same house, with having committed a rape upon her. The evidence was that the young men and Mrs. Crowley attended a social party in the neighborhood, at which wines and liquors flowed freely, and when they returned home the whole party, especially the widow, were intoxicated. Upon entering to her room, the young men followed her, and she said, ac complished their purpose by force. The young men say that it was dune with her consent. The Judge believed the young men’s statement, and discharged them. A YOUNG BRIDE’S TROUBLES. Mrs. CatharinegJones is a bride of a week. She is a dashing, bright-eyed Irish woman of twenty-five. The bridegroom is an old shoemaker of sixty-five. In the same house lives old John McKeon with his wife. Old John is in the habit of drinking too much almost every day. Last Friday evening, he fancied that he could take liberties with the bride, and at tempted to do so, but she dashed a palfof water in his face. He thereupon ungallantly struck her with his big fist, and threatened to do the same to her husband if he should interfere. Old John was required to get bail in S3OO to an swer. A ROW WITH THE PRESS.

He is also a dramatist and poet, having written the celebrated play called, FOX AND RAT OR, OLD AND NE W DEPARTURES. A Burlesque in 3 Acts. Mr. Stern thought the Stadt Theatre management ought to give him a free pass but they thought dif ferently.

Dornbach entered into a recogniz ance erf S3OO to keep the peace.

A CONTRACTOR’S CLERK MISSING WITH $30,000. Wm. J. Slauson, confidential clerk lor Thomas P. Simpson, contractor on the New Jersey Midland Railway at Franklin Furnace, N. J., on Thursday, October 12, camo oa to this city with an order for $30,000 in currency, to be obtained at the banking house of George Opdyke Co,, at No. 25 Nassau street. The money waa paid S’auson between the hours of 3:30 and 4, to take it by tho 4:10 train on the Morris and Essex railroad, from the foot of Barclay street to Waterloo, and thence by the Sussex road to Franklin. The money was put in a small leather traveling bag, marked on the outside Simpson,” and carriod by Slauson from the banking house at the time mentioned above. y He did not return to Franklin Furnace, and he has either absconded or been made away with and robbed. His wife and sister have been living with him at the hotel in tho village, and are much dis tressed at his absence, and the terrible suspicions it gives rise to. Naturally, they incline to the belief that the missing man has been murdered, or has met with some mis tap that lias rendered him for the time being unable to communicate with tria friends. Thoy do not believo it possible that he can have yielded to temptation, and absconded with his employer’s money. Mr. Simpson always placed the most implicit confidence in S’auson, and can hardly believe that he has robbed him. A reward of $3,000 is offered for the recovery of the body of Slauson, dead or alive. The following is a description of Slauson: Age, 27; sft. 9 inches in height; had on sandy goatee; light brown hair, blue complexion, peculiar expression of eyes, as though absent-minded, slim build, looks consumptive, weighs about 125 lbs. Had on when last seen a black slouch hat, single breasted blue chinchilla overcoat, mixed green and black cheviot coat and vest, slate-colored pants, with black stripe and welt on the side, white shirt, white pearl studs, blue undershirt, oblong red gold sleeve buttons, red gold chain,’ and an open-faced gold watch. No. 6575, with the initials I H” on the back. Has lived in California, and wag at one time cashier of a bank at Austin, Nevada, and a book-keeper in a stock broker’s office in San Francisco. With so large a reward offered there is a strong probability that the whereabouts of the missing man will soon be ascertained. IN THIS CITY.

The ceiling is of a unique and beautiful design, executed in fresco, in rich, brilliant, and harmonious colors; the whole being, in addition thereto, tastefully dec orated in gold. The walls are tinted to harmonize with the ceil ing, and the cornice, all around, is supported by a border of illuminated tracery of elegant design, §|The front is formed by two pairs of .double doors, flanked Ly two large projecting show windows, the whole composed of rich black walnut and silver, and filled in with immense lights of. polished -plate glass. The interior fittings of. the store are particularly grand; the cases all around being entirely composed of black walnut, beautifully decorated with gold; and at tho back of tho cases, behind the goods, there are mirrors, and tho shelves are of .polished plate glass.

AN INVESTIGATION WILL PROBABLY BE OR» DERED BY THE POLICE COMMISSIONERS INTO CAPT. WALSH’S CONDUCT. The exposure of .the panel.Jhoupes and keno games in the Fuurteeuth Ward, and the alleged complicity or connivance of Capt. Walsh therewith, made by the Tribune, has created no little interest in police circles, and is much commented unon by a good portion of. the community. Tho specific allegations of tho Tribune, and the equally bold assertions .late ly made by Justice Dowling, in open court, it is ar gued, must compel an investigation of Capt. Walsh’s conduct by the Police Commissioners. It is urged that Capt. Walsh, if he has any feelings of pridq left, or the faintest hope of being exonerated, should himself demand an investigation. He cannot hope by silence to live down these accusations. So long as they are not mot by him, and the authors chal lenged to produce their proof, his usefulness as a public officer, one whose especial province it is to arrest those who are violating tho law, is gone. Ha must demand that his conduct should bo investi gated, or the Commissioners themselves will hava charges preferred against him.
