: SUNDAY. NOVEMBER 10, 10¢Z. GOTHAM. The Blackmailing Harpies of Broad Street. The Motive for Their Last Vile Slander, and its Reaction upon Them. The Baroness Von Rhaden as a Wom- an and an Artist, did in Paris. Enowing that awork of art cannot be properlxyn{nflggd by & single inspection, I have ‘made several visits to_this, and it certainly im- presses me as one of the least meritorious of Gerome's canvases, % Cleopatra has become gn ideal. We all have our couceptions of her, because she stands, to our minds, for the ty&a of feminine fascination. Gerome's Egyptian Queen disappoints us, not only at the firat, but at the last. No smount of study can reconcile us to her. She is not lfiuemtlfnl, Dpor voluptuous, nor megnetic. Her Eg{e seems heavy and supine; her face dull end insimate. Stich a woman never could have charmed the foremost man of all the world; and, indeed, Cmsar looks as if he wero wondering vwhy so unsttractive a woman should take so much trouble to display her figure. CLEOPATEA has not been made Grecian, as she ought_to be, nor evenlzfiypfim, 28 she might be. She ve- sembles a drowsy Jewess, and the expresgion of her countenance is decidedly unpleasant. Ge- rome, I am sure, has been betrayed into How Cleopatra and Caesar Look in Gerome's Picture. From Our Own Correspondent. LB NEw Yor, Nov. 7, 1872, Chicago is abont to be visited by another calam- ity, not _so aestructive, but quite as malignant, as the Great Fire of last year. Woodhull and Clafflin -bave positively threatened, since their 1ast defeat in blackmailing enterprises, to remove to your city, and there prosecute their nefarious calling. THESE FEMALE DRAGONS have grown to be such & nuisance that it was high time they were sbated, and they really ap- pear to have abated themselves by their last shameful slander upon Henry Ward Beecher and the wife of one - his most valued friends. Such a torrent of indignation as it has awakened ageinst them, both here and in Brooklyn, it is almost impossible to describe. Instead of hurt- ing the pastor of Plymouth Church, as they had hoped to o, they have intrenched him more firmly than ever in the affections of his congre- gation. Most bersons are at a loss to account for this wanton attack upon the universally-esteemed clergyman, and wonder that they should have ‘been foolish enough to make it. The fact of hia high position and spotless fame prompted Wood . hull and Claflin to assail him; knowing ths ¢ they could not select any one who could ‘pe standered withmore profit to their paper. T hey had, for several years, told outrageous f glse- hoods about business-men, and hed done ravery- thing in their power to attrsct unenviable atten- tion; and yet their Weekly had perished, Even the most venomons Lies had been insud icient to £ave its repulsive life; consequently, with the first rumbez, of their new issue, they <etermined to smiroh the fair fame of the mar, who stands 5t the hesd of the American pulpi.. Confident thet, whatever they might sey, he would pot stoop to deny statements from such s source, they invented the most monstrons calumny they could, conceive. They did not, for a moment, imagine they would be made amenable to any other law than that against libel ; and, when they were arrested, as they de~ served to be, for issuing obscene publications, they wero taken altogether aback. Desirous of spreading their poison, they sent copies of thejr, . ~ile sheot to every newspaper office, and ta ¥ ', most every prominent citizen. 4 THE VILE BUT HARMLESS SLANDEE.

Lk s 'ANTECED £XTS OF THE FIRM. + “oodhull 8nd faflin have spared Do means, uring their ressdence here, to accomplish noto- riety. They bave lectured; they have written psmphlets ; they have presided over spiritual Seances ; thesy have taken part in Red Republi- ean conveations; they bave pretended to be fankors; shey have contrived to get themsalves lacted Oolonels of colored regiments; they have fiannted brazenly in public; they have lev- Poa blackmail indiscriminately; they have adver- tised themselves in every indecorous manner. None of their endesvors had secured to them ecuniery success, and, in extreme des eration, Phey fonlly_slendered Henry Ward Boecher. This is very likei}f to be the end of their tether, hich no one will regret, 28 it has been long enough to hang them. TN WALL STREET, these so-called brokers have, for & long while, been actively and systematically am[\fi)yed in Jovying blackmail on the bankers and members of the Stock Board. There is hardly a house in the financizl quarter on which the attempt has not been made. The men thereabout have re- frained heretofore from violent messures in re- spect to the odious firm, because its members Wero eupposed to be female ; but they are 8o enraged now that they declare they will mob the Proad street office if the detestable women do not goon clear out. END OF A VICIOUS CAREER. g this year, Woodhull and Claflin in all probablity, cesse to in- fest the DMetropolin; and 1 sincerely wish that youmay be spared the infliction of their presence. They are certainly the wicked- est and most malignant women—if they can be called women—in this_entire city; and many of the things they aro said to be_constantly doing would degrade Messalina and shame Faustina in the worst days of Rome and Byzantium. LUCCA NATURALLY. There has been go much gossip abont Lucca and ber husband, the Baron von Rhaden, that it may be well to pronounce their alleged domestic discords without foundation. The Haron, as you fmow, i an officer_in the German army, Who served with distinetion in the late war against France. Ho was several times wounde and st Gravelotte he was shot in the head, an reported among the slain. He was also shot _in another engagement, throngh’ both legs, 8o that hois & crippls for life, and is certainly excusa- Dle, therefore, for not running very nimbly after hie'tunefal spouse. He will leave Berlin, how- ever, early inDecomber, and would have loft before bad it not been necessary to remain till the first of themonth, in order to obtain his pen- sion from the Government. . Tuces is extremely desirous of seeing her husband ; for she is one of those extrao: uz Deings who can sing in Ifalian opera sn connubial _Affections _at _ the Pame time. In France and Italy, ¥his might be impossible; but, in slow and staid Germany, the miracle is semi-occasionally wrought, In spite, by the by, critics, of the povel Acedemy of Music, oarsest people, .6 detraction of . “upon Woodhull { and refined part + barpies -were to be their days, I do not Atter of what is asserted by the of the company at the tho house is_crowded every ‘night that Lucca sings. Maretzek, I am sure, ig perfectly satisfied, and, if the public were not, it ould stay away. ~ If & managor could draw im- mense audiences with defective tenors, cracked baritones, and worn-out baseos, what object wonld he have in en%:ging singers of & better sort? The New York opera- ocrs are so whimsical that there is_mno Sepending upon them. Sometimes they refuse %0 go to the Academy when the performances arervery good ; and then again, though the en- fertainment be extremely meagre, they will Tun there in ehosls. LUCCA LYRICALLY. Lucea’s best role thus far is Leonora, in © La Favorits.” Not only is Donizetti's music adapt- ed to her execution, but the part enables her to Gisplay to tho fullest advantage her talents 2asn Setress, As such, we have hardly had her equal on the iyric stage. Her Margherila won univer- eal applause, and her rfigutanon in_this charac- ter preceded her Her Terlina, which is fally as good, if nmot better, took ms by surprise; has crowned her artistic success. ‘Fra Dia volo” reveals her endowment for comedy, and L Favorita” her eminent tragic ability. the final sct of the latter orers, whero poor Leo- mora is torn with contending emotions, and ~where the situation is intensely dramatic, sho puts the wail of a breaking hesrt into every note of ber voice. This act electrifies her audience, ‘breaks down conventional restraint, and melts the iciness of modish reserve. For some strange reason ““La Favorita” is not half g0 popular in this country ssit ison the Continent, though I am sure, if Lucca con- {inued to enact the heroino, the opera, atlenst in this city, would become Favorita indeed. GEROME'S PICTURE, « Cleopatra Before Casar,” now on exhibition ‘Dere, i8 ikely to elicit criticiom as opRosite &9 i his limning by _Shakspeare’s ci I the Serpent of the Nile, an i) has given to her profile’ a certain adder-like sppearance. The poeb meant thut Cloopatra had the power of facination sscribad {0 serpents; and the painter, accepting the bard Uterally, has Capied the faa. stwile with his CESAR, 28 we know from Suetonius and Plutarch, was 1ot an Apollo in person, captivating as wers his presence and manners. Gerome, however, has marred the Consul's fme lineaments, and given to his limbs the conrseness and strength of a gladiator. IfI were historically unacquainted with the great Julius, I should suppose, from his position wnd appearance at the desk, ths$ he hnd the gout =and rheumatism combined. Flis face is German, Dot & ‘whit Roman, and is marked byn narrow, peevish spirit, whol'iy unlike thet belonging fo the im- mortal war rior and statesman. . _THE ONE REDEEMING FIGURE in the ‘picture is the crouching Apollodorus; and he ‘ig represented rathor as a_ Nubian than & Siciliar,, in order to contrast the darkness of bis with e radiant whiteness or Cleopatra’s skin. The Egyptisn der::tment, with the quaint {frescoes on the walls,and the strange ornaments on fche Queen’s person, are cunningly wrought; bul,, on the whole, the Work is so defective that I¢.0 not wonder the frail Parisian beauty for Woom and after whom it was painted, declined Yo takeit. She had at least one virtue,—that of taste. CoLsToUN. ST —— THE SUNDAY LAW.

G. H. BaTES, OssIaN, Direct Importations. As showing tho growth and nature of direct impor- tations into the port of Chicago, the following may be noted as the report of last week: i Goods.

The doublo yoke of rosns, especially, attracted marked attention wherever seen.

A Romance of the West :Division=--A True Diagnosis of His Diseases But the Question Is, « Will She Come ?” Tho congregation of one of the leading West Sido churches have for some time been in a state of worry concerning tho condition of their pas- tor. As theyhave watched him, Sabbath after Sebbath, with loving and attentive eyes, they Thave seen things which have given them ground for slarm, touching his physical well-being. As Te stood in the pulpit, he was by turns red and pale; his eyes, instead of devotionally search- ing the ceiling, wandered uneasily over Athe church ; he scemed to be looking. for something, ‘but, even when he found it, he did no_h ap- pear happier. Ordinarily, his delivery was fuent, and he wemt ~from «beloved brethren” through to “amen” with- out & solitary stumble, But of late he faltered and hesitated; he seemed to lose himself and his words. On the streets, he Wwas nervous and embarressed; but yet he was always on the streets. He shunned his study, where he had been accustomed to sit in the afternoons, and ‘administer consolation to the sick and sore of heart. He was negligont in calls; he failed 1'.0 accept invitations to tea from the mothers in TIsrael ; invitations which were frequent, since the minister, being unmarried, bad no wife to give him those littlo comforts which & pastor .craves,—hot biscuit, chicken salad, and the cold, ‘but acceptable, turkey. When the shepherd is ill, the sheep and the they rub their noses against his hand ; they look up piti- ullyin his face, which is their guiding star; they bleat their sympathy in & most affecting faghion. The married and the nnmarried women of the congregation in question did not manifest their interest in their ailing pastor exactly after & shespish and lamb-like fashion, but they came very near it, with the exception of the nose- rubbing. Dut they did something more than merely sympathize. They became practical, and Hhey rushed in tho remedies upon that unhsppy clor; an at such a rate that he was worse off than & sick baby in_the charge of four nervous aunts and one grandmother. i The hectic flush which_swept across his coun- tenance, to be_succeeded by & dendly pallor, could only be due to the insidious advance of consumption, said one set. So strong is tho fendency to contradiction and dispute, even in a church, that those who failed to bo the first to advance this theory Rmmpfly denied its trath, 200 insisted that these unpleasant symp- foms came from an excessive nervousness, duo Yo overwork. Thence the restlessness, the desire for motion, and the shunning of society, Thero a8 snother, but s smaller, party, conaisting of Thoso who maintained that this frouble of the ‘pastors was o montal, not o physical one. He ‘was tormented with doubts touching the truth of some of the dogmas of the church; the Evil Ono was wrestling mightily with hira, 26 ho had wrestled with other shining lights of the faith in bygone dsys. Of course, & porson engsged in such contest with Satan Pould not, bo expected to enjoy his nsual bodily health, Some of the faithful shook their heads at all these theories, and a few thought there Svas something in all of them. So these three grand parties divided the con- egation. At all tho church parties, church Toaers, and church Sunday-schools, the respec- tive merits of consumption, nervousness, and Hixtan were fought over, and the partisaus of each grow warmor and warmer. It was remark: able how much the innocent ladies knew about Satanand his way of da&\ini with men. They Wero competent to write his biography, but they did not stop with mere discussions ; they trans- ferred tho field of battle to the cler an's ‘boarding-house. One set inundated him with codJiver oil and_cherry pectoral; ho had these medicines in Buch quantities that he could have bathed in them, had he so pleaged. They left chest-protectors, mufllers, and_flannels enough to have clothed 3 rogiment. The cornered his laudlady, snd gove her special instructions touching bis fao(gl, and insisted upon the con- stantuse of the warming-pan. Thoy gave her Teceipts for beef-tea, and other stréngthening articles, The supporters of the nervous theo swere not behind. They overwhelmed him wit] anodynes, with perve-composers, and_with com- ‘pounds of valerian, ete. Hero thoy split nto two Eub-sections, and ‘allopathic and homaopsthic dames fonght it out in_ the boarding-house %?;- lor. It was s battle of pills and potions. 8 believersin Satan came laden with instructive and cheering books: * The Christian’s Buckler Against the Evil One,” #* A Lantern to Guide the Feot cf Those Who Walk in Dark Places," etc. What with books, bottles, and clothing, the worthy pastor’s room resembled nothing 8o much S48 country grocory store, with the hardware pert left ont of it. : Ta apito of all theso kindly endesvors, the health of the clergyman doesnot mend. Neither cod-liver oil, nor valerian, nor godly reading can SO h him back that sweet composure ho once en- Joyed. till do the blushes come and go, still doen he shun the tos-fight, and fail to administer Coeet consolation to those who are seoking the narrow path, o the members of the congrega- Hion aro atill alarmed, but yot cling with unshaken confidence to the theories they huve formed. The trouble is, that their dingnosis has been faulty. Ibis 8 Littlo curious, too, that a lob of oran shonld have failed to hit’ almost at once Upon his true disorder. Possibly they would Bovo done it, if their eyes had not been blinded, ‘The true pilment of the young pastor was nothing but love, nothing but woman. Ho had Deon hit by the young archer, and he burnedfora Dair of beautiful eyes which looked all tho D cetar since their owner was sn heiress, and had no incumbrances, no parents, and no poor cousins. The propriétor of those eyes attended fis chutch, but was not & member of Lis congre- ation, and £o tho ladies of tho parish had 1ot & med that she, who was not in the fold, Could be the csuse of his sorrows. If ever e came to wed, they were certain ho would take to his bosom gome one of the lambs he had himself reared. Where they first met is unknown. It may have been in a treet car, or by the shore of the lakos in Unmion Park; it may have beenat a strawberry festival, or st a church socisble. It fa intorosting to know it, but it is not neces- gary. Since he attended his church he natur- ally called upon her;at first once amonth, then once fortnight, then once a weelk, an then oftener. Each time he " saw her, her oyes soomod brighter, her complexion fairer, her wit Keenor, and ber money more fascinating. Well naiad and smart, she willingly displayed fer accomplishments. Just out of school, snd boginning to enter society, she was ready to muko war on all mankind, and to flirt with a boy, a divinity student, anything.. So they got aloag for o time very plessuntly, tho radical dif- Jerence between thiem being kept in the back- ound. That differcnce was that he thought it Sould be an admirable thing for him to marry her; ehe, that it would never do for her tomarry him, Tomarry! Nothing was 0 far from her thotghts. Sho would not discourage proposals, of course; but, as for accepting them, unless from & charming man who camo to court with 3 carriage, that was quite out of the question. As for him, he fell desperately in love; o theologieal cobwebs wero swept clean out of his head. St. Paul went nnheeded; if he oponed the Bible, it was at the Song of Solo- ron. " He read ‘Tennyson, for she did, If she had expressed admiration for slgebrs, ho could have read it from title-page to quadratic equa- tions. ) At last, one evening, he conrse, it gratified her.

When ehe was not in Le called on s relative of hers, who was in the same house, &N tried to propose through her. The relative fried to discourage him, but he was not tobe discouraged. He was hor clergyman; it was her | duty to marry him. _And possibly he thought it Was her duty not to let her monoy go out of the church. When they got tired of receiving him at the house, ho wrote letters which were jum- Dles of textsand Tennyson. The letters were recoived, of course, for thoy were entertaining reading, bub they were rarely gnswered.

Atlasthe wrote her & letter: Dear Miss: Sinco that lsst evening when I stood across the street looking at you eitting in your patlor with another, and you gat up aod pulled down the blind, since that evening when you refused me even the privilege of looking at you, I have determined to tryand forget youw.

Then I may recover that peace which passeth all understanding, which has lately abandoned me. The rag:ei%b of this letter produced the effect which might have been expected.

The public entertsinment given by the Hin- man snd Adelphic Literary Socicties of the Northwestern University, on Friday evening, was & brilliant success. The commodious and airy chapel was filled to overflowing with the wit, wisdom, and besuty of this classic town. TIn bimes past, it has been the custom of these two societies to hold an snnual contest and de- ‘bate in which each would endesvor to sssert its guporiority; but this year, in harmony with the peacefal tondencies of the age, they joined in giving one of the most Tefreshing and piquant entertainments that Evanston has been fa- vored with this season. These eocieties have & membership of over one hundred;ru goodly portion of which are young ladies. Their halls are furnished elegantly ond in excellent taste. The massive head of Webster and his compeers, statues and statuettes have perched o'er doors and taken refuge in cosy nooks. The Hinman Bociety has an organ, through which the great masters, with the aid of gentle fingers, breathe forth their varied emotions. i e Adelphic Society's piano froquently gives forth dulcet sounds under the master-hands of Mr. H. A. Cooper, the organist of tho Methodist Church, and s member of the society, and the young ladios whose sweet voices do much by ;.’bni! influence to destroy the asperities of de- ate. Prof. Carhart, who had been_invited to pre- side, ascended the rostrum at half-past soven, ‘2nd ‘after the invocation, music was given by the Hinman quartette. An excellent rendition en- titled, tho *Death of the First Born,” followed, by Mies Parks. “ Science in Literature” was the theme of the well pronounced oration of Mr. Lestio, of the Hinman Socioty. Calliope sgain npseared upon the scene ; upon her withdrawal the debate of the evening, onthe question: ** Are the influences to work that tead to preserve the perpetuity of the Union greater thanthose thattend toitadestruction,” was parti- cipatad in by Messers. Kaufman (Hinman), H. A. Cooper Sime!phic), Siout (Adelphic), and F. AL Beatty (Hinman). The irregular debate was excellent, consider- ing that the speskers—Messrs, Omeliang, Lam- ‘ott, Scott, and Arnold—vwere_drawn by lot, and spoke extemporaneously; and the regular de- ‘bate was of & higher order. A vote of tho house was taken on the merits of the question, end the verdict was, that the American Eagle will live forever. Mies Eva Maftison, who has g0 often charmed ‘Evanston audiences by the purity and sweetness of her voice, and her unaffocted manner, sang in her usual happy manner, “Oh ! Brightly Shines Joy'a Rainbow Light.” "Miss Miriam é Robb plaged the sccompaniment. In response tos Yehement encore she sang “The Songs 1 Sung on the Danube Rivor.” Mr. Bristol Tead the *Subscription List," and W. G. Mathews failed to present meny new thoughts on the new theme of * Temperanco.” A chorus of male voices, under the leadership of M. Ford Hasted, folled ‘‘That Old Familar Bell” as the closing performance. The audience then were invited to the Society Halls where it i said that some ‘chased the glowing hours with flying feet,” till night was morn. 5 The socitics should be encouraged by this suc- cess, and may they often give such delightful entertainments. Sewing Machines. The cheapest and best sewing machine nOw mond- factured for family use is probubly the New Wilson.
