THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUN E: TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1872 B - N T8 CRIME. - Mesting of the Citizens’ Com- mittee Last Bvening. ral snd < Foll Expression of ion on the Liguor Question. A HMajertly of the Committee in Faver of Enfercing the Sunday Law. "The Citizens’ Committee held s rogular somi- ‘monthly meeting at the ofiico of the Tax Com- missioner, City Hall, last evening, President Greenchaum in the chair.” There wora present Alessrs. Caulfield, Wakl, Huek, Wicker, Wilce, Dersickson, Rielz, Turpin, Prindivill, and Hoiden. 3 A communication Was received frnm P. W. Gates, declining to serve on.the Committes on account of ill-henlth and too much business. He srmpathized with tho movement, and regretted that he wes not able to do the work. _His resignation was zccepted, and H. D, Col- ¥in was appointed to fill the vacancy. The following resolution, presented ot the last meeting, was taken up Resolved, That it i i fermented liquors, ought to be prohibited absolutely from Saturday night at 10 o’clock unti} Monday morn- 2. Resolved, That the Mayor be res the Taws fo this effect, from tlis T el . The President stated, that, since tha resolu- fions were introduced the Committee of Tifteen Bd waited on the Mayor, and tho Mayor had uotified the Police Commissioners to enforce the ordinance; they had instructed the Superintend- _ ent todo it; znd he did not think it wonld be _<[--. mecessary for a1 the Committes to take By acHOm regarding it. He had welked upon ‘the principel sireets on Sunday, and, while un- usual quiotness prevailed, it was_apparent that 10 efficient measures hed been taken to enforce thelaw. . Mr. in thought the passage of the resolu- -tions would give force tothe request of the ther Committee; if they were not adopted, the Hayor lm%ht assume that the Committee did not «pprove of the Sundsy ordinance. The action taken by the Temperance Committee should not relieve the Citizens' Committee from an expres- &ion of their views. . The President was in_favor of having the or- ~dinances enforced ; if they were not, the people would heve contempt for law, &nd the commurity would become demoral- dzed. He would profer an ordinauce -similar to the one in force in European towns. There the saloons were closed from Seiurday -evening until 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon, re- maining open until 7_o'clock Sundey evening. ‘The idea was to keep the ealoons closed whilo the pe:fla were in church; when going home they conld procars a drink if they waned it . Wicker said the ordinence had been on “ the statute books several years, and hed never been enforeed ; it was considered dead, and it seemed to him sny offort to enforce it now would be futile, unless the suthorities were backed up by a majority of the people. Ho was opposed to undertaking anything that could not fbe nccomplished. I, after the election, all good Jnen joined together, -it could be en- iforced.” For twenty ' or & men ‘re- 1solved to enforce it, when 300 were opposed to the cnforcement, would fail. He believed Ats enforcement would result in good, but that &nother ordinance would be nccessary, instruct~ Ang the Board of Police to enforce it. When jnine-tenths of the people were against it, he did not believe it would be wise to enforce it. MMr. Turpin did not believe nine-tenths of the eople were opposed to its enforcement. The ommittee was appointed to devise means for “the m};irsszien of crime; in the judgment of mfl.\:lgg 8 nYmh.\'bition of the sale of liquor on Bunday would do much toward it. He believed its enforcement practicable. They could not ex- s:ct to stop men who on week ‘days from drinking on Sondsy. Men who work during the week, having nothing else to do, go %o the saloon and drink and become maddened by lignor. This should be prevented. If the Mayor issued a proclamation, saying he should xevoke the license of any saloon-keeper who violsted_the law, crime would be in- ished. He did not think the election should figure in the proceedings. As a committee, they should kmow no E&xgly, or assist this or that party in accomplishing their ends, 3 AMr. Holden did not believe andl egislature was prepared o vote to allow any business to be carriedon on Sundsy. By allowing seloons to .open between 2 ane 7 p.m. on Sunday would “legalize the trafic on that day. i[x. Derrickson thought one half of the saloon “keepers would be willing to close up their places on Sunday if all would'do so. If the Mayor onld inspire the people with His courage and strength of will, a5 he had with his ability and integrity, the object would beaccomplished. If the EIr;yor appealed to them they would back Jhim v M.r&ficker had not observed any disposition on the part of the Mayor or the police authori- ties to enforce the law. If anew ordinance was ‘gwsefl by the Council requiring its enforcement oth would do their duty. He offered the fol- lowing amendment to thesecond resoluticn: And the Common Council be requested to aid the “Sfayor in such enforcement, by a resolutionof ita *bady, to the end that the ordinance be enforced. Mr. Wilce believed if the ordinance was en- forced, in = short time nine-tenths of the peo- - ple would be in favor of of it. It would be ben- eficial even to the persons who were now oppos- ing it. He thought saloon-keepers sho be notified to close, and if they did not, let the authorities attend to them. . Prindiville considered thaf nearly all crime resulted from drinking whiskey. The Sunday law was a good mezsure, and be was in favor of enforcing it, even if the majority of the ‘people were opposed to it. e President £8id there were s great many good people who liked to have & drink on San- y afternoon. Bhould they be denicd, was a question to consider.” It was 88 necessary for some men to have whiskey as it was for ladies to_drink tea. . % Mr. Derrickson did not look at the guestion from a theological standpoint ; it was & ques- tion of order and peace in the community. _ Mr. Caulfield said the object of the Committee was not to produce an ephemeral effect, hut & lasting one upon the community. Experience had proved that s Sundsy law could not be en- forced. While he was not opposed to it, look- ing at it in & practical way, he did not think it could be enforced by @ handful of policemen. He did not_believe the Mayor had the power to enforce it. The police force must be increased, und enforced ; classes of saloons should be closed. He was willing that the experiment ghould bemade, buthe was apprehensive that drinking would b transferred from the saloon * 1o the family circle; the women and children would get hold of it, and and there would be murders in the bed chamber instead of in the - street. The Committee was appointed not so much to enforce moralify and temperance a8 to orevent crime. No people could be mede moral islative enactment. The churches should ch temperanco lodges and educate the Beorla &0 avold Tiguor. 2 TE‘B President belioved s total sbstinence law to be unjust; it would interfers with individual rights; Christianity did not require it, nor did Tadaisim; ho belioved Moses and Jesus wero both in favor of e glass of wine. A Hr. Wicker did not think twenty or thirty peo- le should get up end eay * We tho peopls, etc., SEmmd that the law shall be enforced.” "Such & proceeding showed their littleness and want of knowledge of human nature. If a majority of the poople were favorably inclined toward the ondinance, it should bs enforced. . _ Mr. Prindiville remarked if they intended to wait for the people to come forward, they would cease to exist long before the meeting. " If the Committee were agreed that anything was right, they should take action. If the Mayor would revoke the licenses of the saloon-keepers fora violation of tho law, they would close every Sun- day. : < : ]{I‘r. Derrickson sgaid all-the licenses had in them a provision that the saloons were to be kept closed on that day. - Mr. Huck was opposed to closing all the sn- Joons on Sunday. He believed in shutting up 2 saloon if there was any disturbance among those drinking at the bar or fables. J Mr. Derrickson offered the following 2s a sub- stitute for the resolutions, and it was unani- monsly adopted. i Resolved, That the Mayor be and he is hereby re- mested to enforce the laws concerning saloons on Sun- 5. Mr. Wabl said he was testotally, from princi- ple, oppoeed to whiskey. He Delieved education .was the only remedy for drunkenncss. The President annourced the following stand- ing committees. fayor and Council—Wilce, Wahl, and Hesing. Sy »fillm&vfllgfl%&hw Qominissioncrs—Canfield, indiville, and Tu e and.

He wasof ik opizion that there should be no rigiit of appeal from the Criniinal Court to tho Supreme Court, aiter & jury had uhammunfly,‘pron.onnced their verdict. © '™ Mr. Caalficld enid the wiits of error were al- ways granted on. insignificant technical points, The Governor should be relieved of the power to Tcgmgm(eda sentence. ¢ President remarked” thiat vicious charac- ters foared specdy punithmerit, and that was what should be meted out to them. - Ar. Prindiville did not think it wouwld be proper to o awsy with the xight of appeal. Tt | aw should be changed £0.as to require thé Su- preme Court, when they granted s s:}perswcus,to Puss upon the question immediately. The President said what the Committes pro- Dposed to accomplish would come beforo {hem in the ehano'of drofts of laws, and be fully dis- cussed. The meeting then adjourncd. REFORK AND RECONCILIATION, Great Liberal Rally in the Third Ward Last Evening, Stirring Addresses by Messrs. Turner, Hoyne, and Fuller. The Duty ef Democrats at the . Approaching Election. A Libersl meeting of citizens' of the Third ‘Ward was held last evening at the South Side Headquarters, No. 454 Wabash avenue. There wes a large attendance. Mr. James McKindley presided. AR, LEWIS spoke of the frauds perpetrated in Pennsylva- nig, and was convinced that there was greater necessity for continued action on the part of the Liberals if the Republic was not to be handed over to the most corrapt and unprincipled men in the country. He called attention to the local ticket, and contrasted the nominees for State's Attorney. Ifr. Rzed made a speech, blaming the Supreme Bench because' murderers were not hung, and then wrote a private letter apologizing for whet he had said. It wasread from the bench and returned to the writer without note or com- ment, showing what the Supreme Court thought of the State’s Attorney of Cook County. HOY. THOMAS J. TURNER : saidhe had been chosen 23 o candidate for State’s Attorney for what renson he did not know, and, while he did not seek the nomination, he felt it wes his duty, as it was the duty cf every man, to take the place assigned to him in the line of bat- tle, and perform his part as became a men and s citizen. Tho question before the people was thet of the Government against the people. The conduct of the Government in its diplomacy in connection with the Alabama claims and our re- lations with Spain and Cuba was unworthy of the nation. Theexchange of officos for presents, 2nd the nepotism'of the President, were, if not criminal, at least disgraceful and roproachful. Our Government, lika Cwmser's wife, should be above suspicion. If ome half that wes charged aguinst the Administration was true, people could not, if they had any respect for the Government, vote to continue the agents of that Administration in power. [Applanse.] The Liberal Republicans had nobly done their duty; and Democrats should come forward and perform their part. [Applanse.] With the exception of himself, an excellent ticket hed been put in the field for local officers, and every good citizen should sustain it from now until the day of clec- tion, and especially on that day. [Applause.} Buccess was simply & matter of time. The E—inciples that were at the foundation of the iberal cause vere eternal, and would nitimately prevail. The country had to be saved from & more ingiduous foe than ever threatened its ex- istence, and Democrats and honest Republi- cans should unite with each other to accomplish thet end. [Applause.] HON. THOMAS HOYNE thought the country was in more danger to-day than ever before, and all good men should come to its rescue, Ordinarily the election in_Pe sylvania would be discoursging, but conside: efig tho shameless frands by which it was carried, frauds that offended fhe moral sense of the erican people, there was more reason for hope_than otherwise. The reople could mot help being disgusted at frands that threstened Republican form of government. A _dishonest candidate for Governor was_elected by dishon- esty. Tven Grant men could not but admit that the State of Pennsylvania was carried by frauds. The American public mind had received a shock that would romse it to see how the whole system of government was en- dangered by the c&l;aclice of unblushing and out- rageous fraud. e men who manufactured and counted up . Hartranft’s majority had overdone their work, and there could not fail to be & reec- tion before the November election. [Applause.} The Bourbon element was mado up of men who abused the confidence of the Democratic perty, and bronght reproach upon its good name dur- ing the war. i‘y!wers now following Logan and Butler, and others who were traitors to tiat party, and joined the Republican party simply to_get office. Not tovote for Greeley was to indorge Grant. The man who did not vote for Greeloy impliedly supported the Admin- istration and its errors and corry tion. The only rond open to the people to-day to preserve their country from the abuses of the Atfininiatmtion, was by way of Cincionati_and Baltimore. [Applanse.] ~The way in which the President and his Cabinet meandered to the sea-shore and all over the country from their posts of duty was 2 novel but a dangerous and unprecedented practice. Supposo Mayor Medill went oway and let the city run itself as it pleased, would the people stand it? He did not think they would, and yet the men who had sworn to support the Consti- tution and execute the laws of the United States ‘were absent from the seat of Government for months at a time. Public officials had been mainly engaged for the last half year ~in making arrangements and using all their )}o\ver and patronsge tore- elect themselves. The question with each man should be what he could do for his country, and it was the solemn duty of every citizen to devote himself earnestly to the work of regenerating his country and of electing an honest man to the exalted office of President. [Applause.] HON. MELVILLE W. FULLER agked if this wasa Government of the banks or of the people, for the frauds that were perpe- trated in Penusylvania could not have been suc- cessfully carried out_without money, and that ‘money was furnished by banks and corporations. It was their money which elected to the office of Governor, s man who should be in the [Penitentiary. g;&pplms]. There were Liberal ~Republicans enough in the country to elect Mr. Greeley, if Demo- crats only stood up to the rack, and it was the first time Democrats went back on an effort to secure a good and upright Government. A wise and fragal Government was demended, and if Democrats wanted it they could have it with Mr. Greeley. He would vote for him, if no other Demaerat in the country did. [Applause.j The one-term principle, and the reconciliation of the whole country were_involved in_the el tion. The conntry could not be healthy while nine dead States wero in contact with it. = The = Administration made war at home and reserved pusilanimity for foreign nations abrond. The Alabama treaty claimed consequential dumages and then backed down Just Jike a lawyer who cleimod 850,000 damages, and then was gatisfied with a cent. [Laughter]. The resulf of the precious contract at Geneva, was, that Spain was about to claim damages for vessels fitted out in this country to -engage in the war for liberty in Cuba. _Tho course of the Administration was analyzed at length in an eloguent and witty speccl. The meeting then adjonrned. —_— Suicide of o NMethodist Clergyman. CINCINNATE, Oct. 14.—Rev. J. F.

Bheriden, requesting the pissage of an ordinance compelling the closing of all saloons at-11 o'clock p. m., and fixing the penalty for violatioh of the ordinance at not less than™ 10, or more than $100. sy ..-A motion was made to refer the ‘ordinance to the Committees on Police and on Licenses, = Ald. Holdon was opposed to the motion. The Board of Police were shirking their duty, and {rying toshift the responsibility upon the Coun« o Ald. Dixon moved to rofer the ordinance to the Board of Police Commissioners, Tho Chair decided the motion out of order. UhAl‘i Holden appealed from the decision of the air. Ald. Gardner and Dixon supported the appeal, declaring -that the Board of Police sought.to make a soapegost of the Council, . Ald. Doggy sustained the raling of the Chair. The Chairman eaid it would be & discourtesy to the Boerd of Police to refuse to refer the ox- dinanco to a committee, i 4 The vote on the eppeal stood: Ayes, 15; noes, Ald. Deggy.wished to withdraw his motion to refer to the Committee on Police. Permission was refused. The motion was defeated, by o vote of 11 for and 18 against, The motion to refer to the Committee on Li- censes -was lost, by a vote of 8 for and 21 against, | A Ald. Dixon inquired if a motion to refer back to the Bonrd of Police was in order. Tho Cheir said it was not in order. Ald. McCaffrey moved to place the ordinance on file. The motion was lost by a vote of 7 for and 21 sgainst. d. Otis moved the passage of the ordinance. A1d. McAvoy moved to refer to a special com- mittee of five. Lost bya vote of 6 for and 28 againsb. ~Ald. Bond moved to refer to the Committee on Fire-Water (Firo and Water). Ald. McGrath was in favor of referring it to the Superintendent of Polico. Ald. McCaffrey moved to refer to the Police Commisgioner who didn’t sign the report. Ald. McAvoy moved to waive tho engrossment of the ordinance. - He proceeded to “fi that ho didn't beliove the engrossment ought to be waived. He doubted whether the saloons could ° be closed "in Chicago. The Police Commissioners already had sufficient ‘power to close the saloons under the law already n existence. In a great city, 11 o'clock was only the e P of the evening. At that hour the Council would only just have adjourned, and, as for himself, he couldn't get up to Twenty-second street without a little refreshment. He wasin favor of referring the matter back to the Board | of Police. Ald. Woodman moved to refer back to the Board of Police, with iustructions to report to the Council what the low is relating to the liquor-selling question. Ald. Gardner proposed an amendment, asking the Board if the present law is enforced. The Chair ruled the motion out of order, on the ground that it was an impertinent inquiry. Ald. Gerdoer inquired who constituted the Cheir the judge as to whether or not a motion was impertinent. It wasa frequent practice of the Council to inquire concerning -the enforce- ment of ordinances. Ald. McGrath favored the roference of the matter to the Cofilcration Council for his opin- ion as to the legality of the ordinance. %) Board of Police wers trying to use the Council as a football, and he moved to refor the whole subject to the Committee on Judiciary. Ald. Bateham thounght that the ordinance was sent to the Council in good faith, and it should be trested with consideration. It should be re- ferred to the Judiciary Committee, in order to act understandingly. “ A large and respectable element of the people were asking for reliof from the evil of tippling, and_they eshould re- ceive respectful treatment at the hands of the Conneil. Ald, Garduper spoke at somo length on the question, and was called to order by tho Chair. He insisted that he was in order, wherenpon Ald. Gill threatened to leave the chair. d. Gardner said he didn't care whether he left ornot. Ald. Gill forthwith left the chair, but wes indac- ed to resume it. The provious question was called on the motion to refer to the Judiciary Committee, and it was carried by & vote of 15 for and 14 against. SITE FOB WATEB WORKS. A communication was received from the Board of Public Works senting forth the urgent necessity for at once purchasing a site for the new pumping works, for which propositions heo boen received from R. P. Dorticison and 8. J. Walker, the former offoring for 30,000 Lot 247, excopting the north 25 feet; Lots 246, 245, 244, and the north 25 feeb of Lot 243 in Green's South Branch Addition; and ho will glso gell lots 338, 239, 240, and 241 in the samo addition for 50,000 ; while Mr. Walker offers for $03,000 cash » strip of land on Ash- land = avenue, beginning at _the line of the railrord street near Blue Island evenue and Twenty-second sfreet ; thence south 528 feet, which will include Lots 1,2, 8, 4, and 41 on Ashland._avenue in Walker's Dock Addition; the dez:h of the lots being 241 fest, extending from Aehland avonue to the new water slip, and 200 foet along the slip, the whole containing about 132,000 square feet.

The Board recommend the ac- ceptance of the Walker offer, and submit .an ordinancs authorizing the purchase of that 1ot. Ald. Holden moved to refer to the Clerk for engrossment, d. Daggy offered_an smendment directing the Comptroller to withhold from S. J. Walker the sum of £26,207.82, the amount delinquent taxes for 1869, 1870 and 1871, duo the city from 8. J. Walker and H. H.

Engrossment was waived, and the ordinance was passed, authorizing tho purchase of & lot for an engine house on Twelfth street, near May street. The Council adjourned. AMUSEMENTS." M'VICKER'S THEATRE. Tho pretty comedy, “Leap Year,” hes nob been played recently in the city, although it was formorly & favorite, and produced not infre- quently. Its plot is simple, yet characterized by considerable _ingenuity. All of Buckstone's plays possess & central idea—a dramatic pur- pose—which is generally doveloped with consist- ency and rogard to staga proprieties. The hero- ine of Leap Year,” Mrs. Flowerdew (Mre. My- ers), i8 & handsome widow, whom her well-meaning busbend has .laid un- der testamentary obligetions to - bas fdllert in love with hér butlor, “ner, but it impressed t! L narry sgain -within: two years -of Lis demise, under penalty of having the large eslate whicl: he leaves her pass to a distant relative. The time has slmost expired,. and there seems no prospgot that the terms of the will are to be compléted: Afy's. O'Ledry (Mrs. Alien), an Trish lady, a friend and relstion of Mrs. Flowerdew, and still retaining a rich brogue i &hite of an Engllsh education, compesses sea and lané to fin eliEibla husbends, She produces three per- sons who pogsess some deslvable qualificatione. The fivst is Dimple (Mr. MoVicker), the cotsin Of Ars. Flowerdetw, i gentioman rather remark- able for simplicity tlian wisdom ; the second, Capta#rs Mouser, an army officer ; and the third, Sir Solomon Solus_(Mr; Lenergan), n oldexly Daronet: Tlro lady of the mausion, however, bds f o is pleas: ing in person, and byistling with peetical quota- tions, not elwnys pertinent. A, f}t vleis taten ,on trial for three doys, but is discharged on ac- ‘count of his bacchanalian proclivities, Captain Mouser receives his dismissal on general grounds of dislike, and becouse he presents . bill of charges egainst Mrs. Flowerdew for time spent in .courtship, . tailors’ accounts, presents, etc. Sir Solomon is presented by an ancient fomflé “called " Miss 'Desperale, who hes had her horoscope cast, znd learns- that, unless ‘marri hin a given perlod, hor 5pa dy death is cortain, This, in brief, is the plot, &a thero aro the salient features of the play. Sev- eral of- these fentures are rarely seen in modern dramas, and are piquant when 8o well pre-- ented as in Mr. Buckstone's comedy. Itisnob 7 '~ hndband is taken on trial, either on * 4hat g lover, Who Bupposes 1 bring s bill for dam- « i personal expenditure, ast, smusing, The * jed the ‘part of Dimple, < ther_new to him, with an xCon s oo - its humor, and & Adelity of manner-.. - - --gsion that ctlminated in broad burlesque w. the scene in which ho ré- ceives Mrs. 0'Leary's proposal of marriagé, and brought down the house. Mrs. Myers was tastefully attired throughout the plrg, and with especial eIeEmno in the last act. Her playing was Indylike and in keeping with her supposed cherscter and _surroundings, - al- though greater force, intensity, aud defiaitoness would, 8t $imes, have been deairable. The act- inu%of Mys. Allen was epirited, and her brogue had just about the distinctness that might have enriched the speech of alady of Irish extraction, toned down by English life and culture. NMrs. Btoneall, as Afiss Desperale, wasa little tao much like the Mrs. Stoneall in many pieces with which. we nre nc%mintefl to seom altogether agree- able. Mr. O'Neil played the par of Walker, tho butler, and infused into it much elegance and race. A little more humor would have been to is acting like a delicate embroidery, and the avoidance of certain tones of voico, which are not exactly like croaking, but faintly suggest it, would have mado the embodiment of hiis oxcellent concoption more agrceable. Mr. Lanergan never does anything badly, but a little ‘mora delicacy of sheding wonld have given his Sir Solomon a greater appearance of reelity and completeness, The scenery was handsome, but gave no new revelation. ‘There was but a single get, & drawing-room. nfipointed in n costly man- e audience strangely that 50 great a verioty of incidents should ooour within the limits of a sibgle apartment. Under Jr. McVicker's careful management, a prompter becomes & needless luxury, and a firat perform- ance a8 excellent as any that follow. AIKEN'S THEATRE. ‘The - second weck of the season at Aiken's Theatra commenced lnst evening, with the first appearance of Mrs. James A. Oates' burlesque party, in the adaptation of Planche's musical extravagsnza ! Yortunio.” From Theodoro Thomas to the Oates troupe is & decidodly long step; but this did nob prevent the sssemblage of a very lnrgla sudience, who came to be plensed, acd did not require much to Kl:use them, and therefore went away satified. As far- us the oxtravaganza iteelf is concerned, little need be seid. The plot is very thin and feeble, the interost of the piece depending upon tho ex- traneous matter which has been introduced, which consists of solos snd concerted pieces, taken from the light Italian operas.and Offent ‘bach’s works, burlesque dances, local hits, ex- traordinarily ' ridiculous gags, snd tho cus- tomary string of quartrains touching local and national matters,—a custom first introduced by Miss Lydia Thom{zson in her burlesques. - In one respect Mrs. Oates’ burlesques are to.be commended. While imitating the Thompson bus- iness in most of its features she has omitted the vulgaritics which were 8o frequent in the former. There was nothing morally objection- able in the performance last evening, and foth- ing which was in bad tasto oxcept on one oc sion when the personal appearance of z well- known resident of this city wag ridiculed. This a8 passing the limits of propriety, and wohope MMrs. Oates will have the good sense to forbid its r.petition. It ig neither courteous nor witty 1o sidicule a person’s physique. Omitting this, Mrs. Oatea is entitled to gmab credit for produc- ing her burlesque in such an unexceptionable ‘manner, where the temptations are so strong to oversts the bounds of good taste. The wit of the piece, lika the— wit of mostof the latter-day burlesques, is almost un- exceptionally stupid. Now end then o palpable hit was made, but a8 a rule the puns and jokes ware atrociously bad, or sufeeble that they were pointless. The music was not much better, although quite a8 good as that to which we have been accustomed in performances of this de- scription. The only picce worthy olngemal com- mendation in the rendering was an ptnfion of . the well-known * A che voi,” from ‘‘Martha,” which was sung at the close of tho first act with congiderable spirit and expression, one of the gingers boing ffisa Boudinot, who has done duty for yenrs as a chorug-ginger in the English and Ttalian opera troupes. As a rule, howover, the singing was not of n character to endura crit- icism. - Mrs, Oatessaved it from univereal cen- sure by the dash and sprightliness with which she gave her golos, elthough she has vory few idons about the proper manner of using her voice. The orchestra did not edd anything to the effect of the music. It was b out of tune all the ovening, snd, notwithstanding the desperate effort of the leader, Mr. Bichl, b stamping and rapping the to{» of the piano wi his baton, it lagged in its tempos abominably. As this was the firsf appeerance of the orches- tra, however, it will undoubtedly be improved in future. It is to be hoped so, ot least. Mre. Ostes, to use a_cant phrase, is the same old sixpence. She is just as pretty, petite, viva- cious, and garrulous as ever, and rattles off the text atsuch s rapid rate that it is very difficalt to discover what she is talking about. ~Her irre- pressible gaioty and vivacity, the perfect satis- faction eho expresses with everything she does, and her perfect ease in stage presence, and the 0od terms she makes with the audience without Eeing femiliar, amply compensate for this de- fect..

ACADEAIY OF AUSIC. Miss Ada Gray played Gilberte in the emotion- ol French drama “ Frou-Frou," last evenivg, at the Academy. Miss Gray has not been recently in this city, the play hes not been given for Lwo years in Chicugo, and soveral members of the ‘comnany, for some weeks absent, from thostage, mode their reappearance ; three circumstances which made the occasion novel and interesting. The audience was large, and the entertainment generally acceptablo. MYERS' OPERA TOUSE. Although the weather was delightful last evening, the audiences at most of the theatres wero limited in number, although of the size generally —called ‘“respectable.” The min- Gtrel business shared in the provailing thinness, although the bill was wxcellont, and the poople in attendance intelligent and ngprecmhve. The music, both vocal and or- chestral, was of good quality, and the acts hed the old liveliness, and excited the customary emount of lnughter. The only new people were the Reynolds_ Brothers, song-and-dance men, who were well received. MR. SHEPPARD’S LECTURE. Mr. Nathan Sheppard delivered his lecture on the ¢ Philosophy of the Ridiculous,” last even- g, at the Micligan Avenuo Baptlst Cliurch, to o large audience. The lecturer has recently re- turned from an extended .tour through "Eu- fope, and with spposite and amusing reminiecences of his journeyings he embel- lighed his lecture. His production teemed with sparkling jeu @ esprif, which kept his audience in & coustant strain of humor. Mr. Sheppard is o keen obgerver of men and things, an attrac- tive writer, and pleasing in his mannor of deliv- ery. He delivers his sccond lectura, Shut Uj in Paris,” ot the Union Park Congrogations Chureh, to-night. ——— —Two freight brakemen, who had been sky- latking oa tho top of the cars, wére killed at a bridge in Randolph, Vt., one night last weok. s3cope also has its mer- { SPEAKER BLAINE. Speech at the West Side Rink 4 Last Evening. ; THe War ‘of the Rebellion Fought : Cver Again, ' A number of Grant men et in the Rink terday evenlug o listen to & speech from ‘the Hon. Mr. Dlaine. They wero called to order by J. D: Word, who nominated 0. E. Moore for Chairman; He stated that Mr, Bleine had ‘not yot arrived, but would soon ba there, Mr. &.C. Hesing, whé wis présent; was called on and made & few remarks, not in regard to Nafi('mfl politics, but the candibates of thé redent County Tepublican Convention. i . M. BLAINE - was then introduced. If not offensive to .any supporters of the Iate Mr. Greeley, to make any referencs to tho Iate war, he would ask what they had to point to as evidence of the rosults of | that struggle: 1T Union was mainteined, and tho' robollion conquered, but that was of 'the past. But what great results were thers to- show ? 'So far as great results were doticerned, there were the three important constitutionsl changes,' Prior to this generation, far years there had béen nio changes in the Constitution,—. none since 1802. During Mr, Lincoln’s Admin- istration an amendment was adopted abolishing slavery, and making it impossible in America. But it was found that merely declaring a miani not s glave did not make him free, or give him ower to defend himself, and a standin ifculty on the question of citizenship exiate even up to the close of the war. -A colored citizen of Illinois, the moment he got below the freo States, was deprived of all his rights, and even & white citizen was deprived of frée speech. Colored citizens of Maine, serving 28 sesmen, were imprisoned on reaching a Southern ports Messachusetts had tried to test the point, but foiled. Even at the close of the war there Was no common standard of . citizenship, three Sonthern States declaring no Northern State should determine the question of citizenship mi“fzbefil' iblican party, seeing that trouble, d e Republican p: , Beeing ouble, de- Lnrmincdgn another amendment. The founders of the Constitution had made it difficult’ to amend the Constitution. Yet this was edopted, and by it the ve‘r{ root of the evil was plucked up, and all troubles about citizenship abolished, and all persons were o citizens who were born_or neturalized in the United States, and no State was allowed to_abridge the rights' of any citizen, Congrees being given povwer to enforce tha article. A case arose which tested the powerof Congress under that amend- ment, At the close of the war all expected tumult and disorder at the South. But after patient waiting the disorder was found to con- tinue, and thero was & vast conspiracy agoinst thorights of loyal men. A careful investiga- tion had showed that in six years 23,000 men had been its victims, and more than six thou- sand Lilled. General Grant thought® it time to stop it, and recommended ‘mc- tion by Congress under the Fourteenth ‘Amendment. That led to the Ku-Klux law. While pending, it had the aid of Mr. Greeloey's penand influence. 1t was adopted after o long debate, all who opposed it assenting that such lelgigln.- tion trampled on the great right of local self- government. But the bill, inbrief, meant where the local authority could not or would not. pro- tect the citizen hecould appeslto the Federal anthority. It was a law applying to Illinois also, but Illinois protected its citizens. The Repub- lican party declared then that the purpose of the Iast amendment was to centralize all powers necessary to protect the citizen. - The war had been fought by the soldiery to secura a Government that conld protect them. It wag curious that a Government which always jealously pratected its citizens abrond should not do 1t at home. He referred to tho prece- donts get in the cases of Koszta and Dr. Hou- ard, which constituted what some called shadowy claims. .Bo he could not comprehend how the Federal Government could reach Bpain, and yet, behold, could not interfere in South Carolina; but thet was where the Democratic party left them. Mr. Greeley was nominated at Cincinnati, and, knowing it was necessary to have the Demo- cratic nomination, also_wrote e letter of accept- ance to Cincinnati, which was a bid for the sup- ort of the worst wing of the Democracy, the gflulhnm Rebel wing, and bhis letter was to please them. He deliberately agreed to give up _the ourteenth Amendment if they would vote for him,—and he read from the letter referred "fo, to prove it,— which, he nlleg&d, contained all the old doc- trines of the Democratic party on the subject of local self-government. He bad agreed to throw citizenship to the Southern dog:uif they wounld support Lim. Upset that amendment, and the country would retrograde immeasurably. The Cincinnati Convention was a remarksble bodz_ 1t was called by discontented Free-Trade Repub Yicans for revenue reform. It was called ex- pressly as a Free-Trade Convention, and if wound up by nominating the highest protective man in the country. Some one was cheated; and the respectable members finally let out that Mesers. ed, - Fenton, Greeley, D Bleir had managed it. To avoid lapghier, .they abandoned free . trade if Mr. Greeloy wopld give up Protection, and, in making up & platform they oxpressed 'positive inions on everything but the subject forwhich they were called together. Ho read the article on the subject of revenue reform, which he thought was d.nurinfi it pretty mild. Mr. Gree- loy, in Lis letter, had ros; nngmi, and expressed the same sentiments, decling to’ do any vetaing a8 President, but to gign whatover was present- od to him and to go it blind, and sign it in the. dark. If it were possible to ixfi:ench a candi- date for the Presidency he would like to take twelve Liberals and swear them in 28 & jury and then procoed to ftry Mr. Greelsy. The _ Constitution dofined _the da- ties of tho Prosident. But Mr. Greeley | ractically stated he would not perform them. vory bill, when passed, went to the President for his n}:f'rnva.l or d.isagprovnl‘ Mr.' Greeley had bound himself not to exercise & veto—not under any, circumstances. The veto power was a most precious one, conferred for the benefit of the people, and no President should remounce its exercise. He objected to Mr. Greeley because he had ‘been eaying all over the country that its great need was_amnesty. He had been on the amnesty business in Congress, and no parallel could be found to the mercy of this Government to the rebels. spite of four years of war and hundreds of thousands of dead, not one life had been ex- ected as a forfeit, not one dollar taken, and all rebela restored to full rights, except about 285 men, and they were deprived only of the- right tohold office. Such leniency was incredible. For a brief rebellion in Paris 30,000 men had been banished. He was ready to meet Dr. Greeley on the issue of those 285 men, whom he wanted relicved. They were men who had vio- Inted their oaths a8 Senators, army officers, and Cabinet officers. The speaker then reviewed the record of Jacob Thompson, who, while fooling Mr. Greeley at Niagara, was orgmizinfi cong}ai:&- cies to burn the cities of the at_ night, Chicago included, and who {failed on _account of the detectives, etc. Now M. Greeley said one of the great objacts of his arty was to allow euch men to hold office, and to enable loyal men to yvote for them. Generally, amnesty was a wise policy, but for such men as Thompson, the original promoters of the con- spiracy, 80 long 28 God spared their guilty lives, Do wanted them to have tho scarlet ltter of treason emblazored on their brensts. But what of all that, 8o long as General Grant’s fatherbeld a smell Post Offica? He then rend somo of these family sppointments, and made little of them:. Mr. Sumner had raised the issue and then ‘cleared out for Europe. The gift-taking issue had also been raised by Mr. Sumner, who tried to convey. the impression_that military men had not pre- viously received gifts. But Genersl McClellan had been given 4 house, and so had General- Sherman. ~Farragut and Porter had received im- mense sums of prize-money. Had Grant re- ceived prize-money for all he captured, he would have been richer than A.T. Stewart. Generals abroad, too, had been munificently rewarded, like Wellington, etc. They fought 'in’ wars of ambition; Grant in one in which great princi- ples were at stake, and immense material inter- ests involved, During the campaign in Maine, Senater Trum- bull tried to 'arraign the epeaker for hoving pecked the Committes to - ex- amine = into the Navy _ Department. At the time Mr. Trumbull had said Mr. Bleir was to move for a Committee, and he hoped the Committee woxld be fairer than some they had in the Senate. The Committes was made up of five, and had three Greeley men on it. 1t cleared the Secretary, and now Mr. Trumbull amaigned tho speaker for packing the Committee. Heand Mr. Sumner had an jdea that an investigation committeo must be fayorable to finding the nan investigated guilty. They wanted the Commit- i | mako & good Governor. . be hanged immediately.

He Addressés the German Voters of the West Divie slon---A Teiling Speech by Oar Next Governor. A large and respectable crowd of pecple assem- bled last evening at Aurors Turner Hall, on 3Mil- waukee avenue, o hear Governor Koerner dis- course on the iesues of the day, in the German langusge. The meeting was called to order by Charles Enobelsdorf, Eaq., who introduced Cart- ter. H. Harrison, cendidate for Congress from the Second District, who addrassed the meeting at length,” and then introduced Governor Koerner, who was very enthusiastically received. After thenking them for the enthusiastic reception, hoeaid he would discuss mattersin an Lionest, straight-forward manner. The Lib- éral Republican party wes a young party, but its principles were quite old. The mission of the Republican party was fulfilled when slavery was sbolished, and it wae time that the South was put on an equal footing with the North. There was no opposition made to General Grant until it was found that he was entirely unfit to rule the people. It was childish to assert thatthe Liberal party wes started because of the grievances of Sumner snd Schwrz. Had the party not been thoroughly cormpté the thousand Sumners and Schurzes conld not_have nccomplished such & movement, The Demo- crats were acting inn%aod faith with the Liber- als; their leaders had for years demanded a new departaro; they demanded tho same reforms as the Liberals, and, therefore, the alliance was s natural one. Justice was on our side. We ask Civil Servico Reform, and the one-term princi- ple, and he particularly referred to the fact that tho -President had the appointment of some 60,000 officers, and by a wrong construction of the Constitution could also discharge them. This ave himmore power than the Czar of Russia had. fi'be negroes generzlly supported Grant, but yet & few could be found at every place who are for Greeley, but who ever heard of an office-holder who waa for Greeley ? These men stood lower than a slave, because a slave knew no better, but they did. [Applanse.] We battls to liberaté the office-holders from slavery. Granthadmade all appointments to reward friends, to punish enemics, and to create an army of servile slaves. to himself. The German element hea always hed a political influence on account of its nu- merical strength, but since Schurz, Stalle, Hecker, and others have appeared in the politi- cal arens, thoy have always bean recognized for wisdom and statesmanship. The men who ran the Slaats Zeitung had no principle. Their only aim was *“ what pays best.” They had sdvised the Liberals to nominate him, and promiged- to support him, and 88 soon a8 nominated they begean to traduce him. He concluded with the advice not to vote for him because he was a German, but because they thought him superior to his opponent in all qualities which go to PACIFIC COAST."
