THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: MONDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1872 7 4 EW YOR Continued Gossip About the Tribune---What is Like- ly to Happen. Tha Chief Editorship Probably Lbol- -The Largest Stog hoider as Its Com= trokicn, Reaction in Favor of Horace IGree-‘ ley and His Jourial. A Merry Troop of 0!d Bachelors---The 0id Byvalry and the Few Daily. From Our Oun Correspondent, 5 Nrw Yous, Dec, 12, 1872, an this couniry, s newspaper is notonly & daily acquaintonce, but an intimate companion, of every American. -It is not strange, therefore, that our public shezld feel a decp interest in joarpels end journeliste, sad have & coccern al- M3t parsonal in their reguiations end movo- ments. TAT TEICUNE AGALN. I mentioned lnst week thet varions persons iod been assigacd by rumor to tho editorship of the Tribune ; emong them, Vice President Col- . fax, who, it is stili insisted by many, is to-be r. Greeley's successor. Sny thet this is » measuro of policy on the part of the stociliolders of the parer, with tho view of bringing it back to tho fold of that party; and others allego that the matter hes been fully etermined. If thero be any such purposd, which I grevaly doubt, it cortainly is not kmown to amy number of tho Tribunre stockholders ; nor has thore becn eny corvoczlion of ihe body | pointing to & chenge. The probability is; thas s members of the Asscciation willing to have any successor to their late chicf, end that they will in future mako the managing editor directly responsitle to them. r. Colfax has noverhad journalistic experience, excopt ag ke editor of 3 small weekly in Indiene, snd would, in consequence, be lardly fitted, what- ever his natural 2ptitude, to fill the plece made- vacant by 3lr. Grecley. Ho conld scarcely be, T should think, more than a respeclabls figare- head, thongh, to that end %is political life and ‘public cervicea might stand him in good stead. SANUES SINCLAIR is the largest stockholder in tho Tribune, and a3 e controls, I ax lerstand, tho shares of the late S.T. Clark, formerly financial edifor, and is likely o control those belonging to Mx. znd Mrs, Greeley, he will have a lorge preponderance in the Board. TUnder the circumstasces. he will be tbe virtmal controller of the Zrilure, and oceupy the samo position in rogard to it thab George Jones accupies to the Times. A GEEAT REACTION. The death of Mr. Greeley hee, duced ¢ great reaction in favor of the Tribune. Many of those who believod that the distin~ guished editor was prompted by political ambi- tion to desert his party, and that ho was not gin- core in the courze Le had taken, believed .80 no longer. They now regard him a8 having ncted with entire conscientionsnees, and, as they can- not do him the justico he deserved, they are anxions to take the journalinto which he put the best of his thought and life. New subscrip~ tions for the daily and weekly are reported to'be coming in rapidly, and, instead of s falling-off next year, the Associstion confidently expect an increase in the circulaticn. ‘The calumny that zseailed Mr. Grecley daring the late campaign has died with him;_and those who were bitterest in their denunciation of him sre now londest and sincerest in their praise. A PROOF THEREOF. The reaction ig shown in the sadden and active demand for Parton's *‘ Life of Greeley,” and for Mr. Greeley's * Recollections of a Busy Life.” It may bo remembered that the first volume sold very largely on its first appearance ; but when it es revised, brought dovm t0'1863, nnd reissued, * that it found a dull market, 5o it was with the “Recollections,” Printed in the Ledger (they were written, you know, at tho enrnest solicita- tion of Robert Bonner), they largely increased its circulation and were 5o popular there that it was supposed they would be in active request when bound and put between tovers. ey were not, however; and the solo explanation of the fact was, thet nearly everybody who felt an interest in them had read them in the Ledger. The eminent editor's decerse has brought to tho- Tecords of ‘his- carcer & new. attraction, and-it is probeble the two books will now have anim- ‘monse sale, Iy Several of the magazines are to contain arti- cles on Horace Greelay, written by persons inti- mately acquainted with him. e needs 1o new biographers, however, and Parton and himself bava done well and thoronghly what needed to be dono in that way. Few great men have been so thoroughly illusirated durng their life as Ar. Greeley Lss. Ho was 8o peculiar, and yob 80 common-sensible, and So mniversally known withal, that it might be said every intelligent citizen of the Republic carried in his pocket an intellectual photograph of the remownod Re- former. SHANEFUL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, Much and just indignation is felt hero toward those of Mr. Greeley's relatives who have en- deavored to question the validity of hislatest will, leaving - bis entire property to his daugh- ters, There is not the slightest probubility, howover, of those kinsmen dispossessing tho han children of their inkeritance. -I should have thoughi this will might have proved an exception fo the genersl and flagi- tious rule of such legal conteate. Nothing, I am sure, "conld be mora distreseing to the de- parted journalist than to knovw, that his Inst tes- tfament, in favor of his beloved danghters, wonld be disputed by these of his and their blood. .. What a ehame it i€ thet, in theso days, no one, Lowever good, and true, nad sano, can dispose'of the property he has Lonestly edrned, without feeling an almost moral cortainty that, after e Las gone, eome of bis reletives: will try_hard-to - depnive of their rights theso he hasloved best. A FLATOR OF DOMANCE. 3 Tt eeems a little singnlar, by the by, that many of the membera of the members of the Gracley Zemily, elwara noted-for strict plainness and practicalizy, hotld bave such fondnees for sen- timental christenings. - Alr. - Greeley’s danghters : are named Ide Lillizn 2ad Gabrielle Miriam, and his nieces Pouline Ceceli and Evavgeline. There must have been ral clement of, ro- manco somewhere in the family. R 4 CHEERFUL COTERIE OF OLD DACKELOES, About the cloge of the War, there iere some twelve or fifieen old and wealthy bachelor ‘boarders at the Astor House. They used to dine together, and wore as jolly a&ot of ancicats . 2sIhave seen; clearly refuting the common notion that colibacy bagets selfishness, moodi- nese; and surlineas,” Not a fow of them had led eventful lives ; and. as all were intelligent, and - in possession of good health, they mado & Therry isble, andhad & merry time. . Bachelors as they <were in practice, they wers not so in teaching, They often £aid to the Toung men of their 20- quaintance, tlat marrriage wasa good thing generally, but that they had gotten along very comfortably withont it, aad. hied never regretted their singleness. As every man who lives un- wedded to a certain age, resumed to have a love-romance in his history that will explain his ‘anblessed state, all of those old fellows were set down by the goseins of the house o4 rejected suitors, or hoary Romeos meurning in spirit for epartéd . Juliets. They mever ‘gave the slightest intimation of such sentimental antecedents, even over their wine, and sppeared #9 contented (much more so, I suspect) asif theyhad had 3-hundred- wives. They would have enjoyed themselves until the end of the century, 1f time had not been against - them. All over €J, most of them fully 70, they dropped off rapidly, but with entire resignation, 20d with & frm copviction that the world, on the whole, had been very pleasast. As body, they presonted s strong an suti-matrimoniel arga- ment as I love Leard expressed; though, if they could have lasted to Lccome centenarians, they would have becn ablo to illustrato celibacy from = poist of longevily. Some of thom moved away; battle majority of them breathed their lzst in the Astor. TIE LAST, I think, of that coterie, Samuel Marsh, has just died at tio hotel, in his 83th year. Ho had been 2t the honse almost ever since its opening, and 1had occupied the sume epartment for & quartor *of & century. He left an estate valued ot $2,000,000 and in the trunk in his chamber Certain Republicans | aro mo- itis enid, pro-- 1 { i i were found, after his demiee, over $100,000 in Government bonds. As ho Inft 5io will, his forv relatives will ‘have no oppurtunity to quarrel over. his proporty, and ciiy lawgers will doubt- less shed teara over the—to them—distressing fact. Mr: Marsh had boen engeged in business from hie early manhood, and hed mever missed looking after it for o single day, until the weelk of his final illness. ‘A very amisblo and pleas- ant gentleman, he had the good fortune, a5 80 many of his bachelor-companions had had, to ‘pass avay without regret or pain.

With the exception of the prime donne, Lucca and Kellogg, none of the artists have beon_sbove, and eome of them far below, mediocrity. ) spito of this, tho entertainments haye averaged nearly §4,000 apiece, which ought to be sccepted 28 something of a proof of tho willingness of | New Yark to support the Iyric drama. Luces hes, of courso, been tho chief attrac- tion; and Kellogg, a3 I have esid before, has been capriciously and unreasonably neglected. The Itier must havo enjoyed her trinmph over her rival in the opera of *‘Mignon,” oagccially at its last representation ; for she sang * Filina,” tho music of which i8 much more sparkling than is that of the title-role. Moreover, *Filina” has the advantage of dress and situstion, while “1lignon” is forced, most of the time, to wear rags and a page's drets, and noither of the cos- tumes is in the least attractive to the little Ger- man, In Thomas' composition, Kellogg fairly !

Miss Aleott has falicn a victim to the literary | + piracy which, we grieve to say, prevails on the | | i i ! other side of the Atlantic.~ Her “ Little Wo- men” waa first publishéd by Mesars. Sampson, Low & Co. in tho interest of the suthor, and with her sanction. - Some * pirates,” seizing the worl, undersold the’ rightful publisher, appe- reatly at s very great reduction, by eplitting the | book into two volumes, calling them respectively ‘“Little Women” and * Little Wives.” Messrs. Low, to protect thomselves, are now obliged also to divide the work, and issue *“Little Wo- men” and ¢ Litile Women Wedded.” It moy he remembered here that Rontledge & Co., of London, . have bacn eccentric enough o pay Mr. Eggleston for tho- publication of his book in England. ® —DMiss Kellogg is to give her experienco of stage-life in antobiographic form. —All lovers of - Elizabethan literature will be plessed to henr thatthe fifteen comedies and tragedics of George Chapman, issued separately in various years from 1598 to 1654, but never be- fora collected, aro on the evo of publication by JIr. Pearson, in three volumes, The toxt is re- printed zerbatim et lieratim from the raro oigi- nal quartos, and is necompanied by a memoir of the eathor. The high place which Chapman oc- | cupies in literature, and the enthusiastic admi- ation which some of the best critics, including Halitt, Shelley, Charles Lamb, and Hallam, have éxpressed for his dramatic writings, make it surprising that hie pleys should mot beforo Tnow have been placed within the reach of poeti- cal and dramatic studente.

This fly- leaf contsing an ndvortisement of the Iast edition of Mr. Froude's “ History of England,” which sels forth with amnzing frankness' the_reasons which induced Mr. Froude to writeit. He says: “The occasion of undorteking the present work was, a8 regards myeelf, en_involuntary leisure, forced npon me by my inability to pursus tho profession I had entered, but which X was for- tidden by tho law to exchange for another.” This fastens the Seturday Review in its oft-ex~ preseed opinion thet fr. Troudo wrote istory, not because ho Imew any- thing sbout it, or becsuse he had found some historic thought which ran parallel with his own bent, but because_he wanted somothing to do, and because certain theological contro- yersies were going about. is lack of train- ing is shown by the superiority of the later over th carlier pages of his work. When he Dbegan, he knew nothing of the times which went Dbefore those of which he wrote ; but ho learned, in writing, what he nceded to know about tho years preceding those of which he treated at tho end. Mr. Froude himself found this out. “I found myeelf,” ho said, “ uuablo to handle tho late features of the Revolution without going ‘back to the beginning of it.” He found out ho could not understand tho later stages of o thing unless o understood ‘the beginning. In this advertisement, Mr. Froude alludes again to those mysterions manuscripts in which, ostrich- like, he hides his head when pursued by the cruel Meline and the English critica. This allusion rakindies in the bosom of the Sat- urday Review- **» certain senso of mistrust. Whenever 2r. Froudo can be tested by o plai picce of English or Latin, ssy Camden or Sir Symonds @'Biwes, his_quotations are always 5o very unlilo what we fiud in the printed works that one is alwaya followed about by an uneasy feeling as to Lis copying or translation of menu~ seript materials which we have no chance of sce- ing. As on instance, Mr. Froude's toxt tells of a ship bearing eo_quéer o memo op tho Ark Raleigh;" wo turn to Camden, and find thet in his textitis * Arca Regalis.” This error isun- important, but is slso inconceivable; and we cannot wholly keep down ourdoubts as {o things which we are asked to believe on the authorily of manuscripts which aro 8o far off as Simancas. On the other side, it is fair to let Ar. Froude ' speak for himself. Ho eays : My History of Eagland has becn composed from perhups 200,000 dochmente. pine-tenths of them in difficult NSS,, and in half adozen languages, I have been unable 6 trast printed copics, for the ASS. often tell stories which the printed versions leave concealed.

Mr. Bcott is the brother-in-law of Mr. Munn. Mr, Munn, when he first came here, associsted Limself with Mr. Gill, and commenced ruoning 2n elevator under the firm nome of Munn & Gill. Mr. Scott is said to have been & silent artner. This firm failed in 1856 or 1857, but {r. Munn settled with his croditors, and started the Northwestern Elevator in company with his brother-in-law, Mr. Scott, and they continued in the samo businees until their lato difficulty. THE LAW COURTS." NOTES OF INTEREST. Every nighthawk in the city knows the hostel- 1y of Patrick Loftus, that lies below tho gutter on Madison street, near Halsted. Pat had a lit- tlo snit on hand up to Satarday last, which never was thriving, and on Saturday expired be- canso it never ought to have existed. On one side or the other some preposterously tall per- jury was indulged in, and Judge Fatwell has de- cided that it was not on the side of tho defend- ant, and dismissed the suit for want of equity. It s proper tosay that Mr. Loftus wishes to compel his landlord to make him s lease of his promiacs on certein terms, which tho landlord claims he never agreed to.

Iam, to s certain oxtent, devoted toit. Itis the chiof main-spring of bealth. Itwilladd years of happiness to him, or her, who takes it—as they do their meals—as one of the rogular elceferas to an every-day ex- istenco. Butonme doesnot always find it, sim- ply by sceking; O dear, nol Oftentimes it comes, only after tho most wesrisome and pains- taking effort ; even as thestray rift of sun- shine, that struggles throngh the—eeemingly— chaotic cloud canopy of the Storm King, bursts atlast into the beantifully glorious rainbow,dart- ing ite promise with brilliant corruscations to @ world, ~ That, Mr. Editor, is my idea of humor, But how far short I had fallen, I only dis- covered lsat Sunday, after I had Tosd— as I ever do—your issue of THE TRIBUNE. It was then I learned that my estimate—of humor—rwas, as & molo hill, to a mountain; Og- den's Blip, to Samana bay; the Declaration of Independence to ‘Carl Pretzel's Mlagasine Pook.” Why? Tl tellyou. Mr. #¥%%, or Four Stars, or Asterisks,—and T, asan American citizen, have a perfect right to place my own construction thereon, and shall therefore, baptize him as A Nasty Risk,—commu- nicated to you his opinion of tho profinctmn, at Mr. McVicker's Theatre, of “The School for Scandal ;” 2nd, to me, it is the—to usea trite, but very expressive motto—Ne Plus_Ulira ol humourous burlesquerio. Ho bogins with tirade upon all the dramatic critics connected with the Chicago press, and_finishes—when his humor- istio vocabulary exhausts iteelf—with such ex- clamations as—¢“Oh dear !"—* Oh my!"—* Oh gracious!”—Oh Lord|” and a scurrilous slur at Mr. McVicker. Now it is just possible, Mr, Editor, that I have misconstrued the intent that dictated the opistle of A. Nasty Risk, Esqr.; and if 80, I humbly ask pardon, and will not again presume to criticize his offorts, inasmuch as I acknowledge myself a8 belonging to the human family, and am, therefore, Liable to err in mg conception of characler, and do not arrogate mysolf as the cri- terion by which all characters—upon the stage— should bo sssumed by the members of & very ex- cellent compsny. Claiming your indulgence, which ia proverbial, for the space in your most excellent paper, I am, ever your well-wisher, REX. —_— THOSE STOLEN ENVELOPES. The office of 0. E.
