The collection is 2 Tarity and study, and should have been bouzht in toto for the historical rooms instead of being scattered hopelessly. It contained, among other singular exhibits of taste in book-buying, a bundred and nincty-twodifferent editions of the Bible, and a vast number of theological works, of interest chiefly as relics. There were many cditions of Shakspeare, Milton, and Burns, and numerous early-printed books, covering all de- partments,—art, biography, history, travel, science, literature, and poetry. The purchases have been made for the most part by dealers, and at shockingly low prices. Sir Archibald Allison’s “History of Europe - during the French = Revolution,” for instance, comprising ten paper-cover volumes un- cat, ‘went at 75 cents for the lot. The histcry, once ropular, may be no longer read and may remain forever uncut, but it was worth that for old paper. 1 cannot go into particulars among 20,000, but may rouse thé ire of old-took scckers by saying that “ Plutarch’s Lives,” o scarce edition printed in1656, brought only $2.50; “Lord Napier's Memoirs of Himself,” a private editfon in 1783, only $7; and Sir Bulbe Grevil’s “ Lite of the Renowned Sir Philip Syd- ney,” dated London, 1552, only $2.25. Slightly better tréatment. was accorded Irving’s “ Life of Washington,” a large paper copy with India proof portrait, which sold for $50; and Hou- oroken’s *‘Lives of the Painters,” dated Amsterdam, 1718, which brought $22.75. - NOVELTY IN CHURCII NUSIC. They are going to try something new at Plym- outh in the way of a song service. The *Plym- outh Collection * is to be laid sside for a newer Look, and every hymn will be preceded by an anthem bearing upon the scotiment of the verses. When the leader swings his baton, the congregation will join the choir. The idea is taking. and if the practical working prove har- monious, others of the churches will not hesi- tate to become imitators of Plymouth in this regard. Singing entirely congregational and singing entirely quartette have friends and foes.| alike. A happy mixture of the two is the aim of the present experiment. But whatever the music, Mr. Beecher has not yet found himself in the unpleasant position of a well-known New York clergyman, who, though a talented man and able preacher, is dependent for his audience upon the organ-end rather than the pulpit-end of his fasBlonable church, THE MUSIC OF THE STAGE. The overflowing houses ot the Academy this week show the popularity of the Kellogg En- glish Opera Troupe, of course, but show still more that the people have been waiting for something good. The highly-anticipated event of the season s the debut in this country of Miss Emma Abbott, who is well again, and to appear under the management of Signor di Vivo next month at the Academy of Music. A STAMMERING FARCE. A pood story is told at the expense of a jour- nalist who used to live in Chicago, and who was for eome time employed on the morning ‘paper printed in Fifth avenue. He it was who once upon a time acted at the Globe Theatre, playing Jago in green glasses and with stuttcring voice to the Othello of a well-known railroad man. To the impediment of spcech is due the story now related. A manager inthis city recently con- sented to hear the journalist read a short farce which the latter had written, the sole condition being that the reading shonld not occupy more time than the manager did in smoking the cigar be had just lighted. Away they started, tne one in no less hurry than the other, and the reading and smoking were concluded to- gether. Of course, the question was immedi- ately put. Whatdo youthinkof it?? © Well,” replied the manager, “it is not a bad idea. Father, mother, lover, daughter, all stuttering, will have a novel effect.” Poor journalist, fu- rious, exclaimed: “They d-d-don’t st-st-stam- mer; it's only my misfortune.” *Oh, then, it isn’t funny at all. Sorry I can’t accept it.? “FIFTIl AVENUE."” ‘With the matter of play-writing so nearly in mind, it may be well to say that_the profound critics who have had the pleasure of reading George Fawcett Rowe’s new local comedy, ““Fifth Avenue,” arc somewhat divided in their opinions sbout it. The most competent per- haps of the number predicts that it will draw, though he does not sec much init. Late expe- riences sustain just such a paradoxical judg- -ment. The popular plays have been precisely those without much in them, peaking from anything but a spectacular and sensational standpoint. Managers as well as critics have learned the extreme hazard of forecasting the success of stage ventures. “Dan’l Druce 'was thrown out as a bait for lovers of finc sen- timent well expressed. It cost Messrs. Jarrett & Palmer some thousands of dollars,although they had Lawrence Barrett for their star. Mr. McVicker has maintained the legitimate atthe Lyceum, and thinks himself lucky, as heis,to bave come out a trifle ahead, in spite of those who have had him in bankruptey—in newspaper bavkruptey—half a dozen times. But lo! “Lemons,” the veriest jester in the court of the drama, is brought out at the Fifth Avenue, and the house forthwith is filled. I do not mean to imply that Mr. Rowe’s play has any likeness to *‘Lemons.” 1t is doubtless not nearly so fun- 1y, and certainly not so absurd; but it is be- cause of its striking and sensational scenes, to- gether with local characteristics, that * Fifth Avenue” is expected to fill both the hopes of the author and the scats at Booth's. There has ‘been mych difliculty in securing a satisfactory caste. If “Fifth Avenue” isso trying to the profession, it would be a gricvance indecd should it prove equally trying to the public. EFPECTS OF THE BROOKLYN FIRE, A gentleman, who was curious enough to in- vestigate, tells methat where a thousand people used to come from Brooklyn toplaces of amuse- ment in New York, before the great disaster, scarcely a scorca night have crossed the river since. This statement is confirmed both by the ferrymen and the proprietors of down-town restaurants. -One of the latter says that above a hundred persons were accustomed to stop in his place for lunch before going Lome, after the ride down trom the up-town theatres, whereas lie now regards himself fortunate if half-a-dozen of this class of patrons present themsclves. In thiswaythe effects of the fire extend beyond the- atrical interests to the hackmen, horse-car com- panies, and restaurateurs, and in turn to the mony dependent on. these. Asa carious in- stance of the indirect operations ofa cause, some questions put to astreet beggar who im- portuncd me late at night, and with a most piti- 1ul story of a starving wife, disclosed the fact thathehad been & waiter at a certain restau- rant, and was discharged because of dull busi- ness. Happening at the place shortly after, I learned that not only was the fellow’s story true, but that the dull business was induced, as hinted above, by the cessation of what may be termed the theatre-going trade of Brooklyn. TRE LATEST PRODIGY. Prodigies, in whatever way they develop, are looked upon with sadness when one recalls that ponderous and appalling sentence of Macaulag’s, “ Untimely decrepitude is the penalty of pre- cocious maturity.” Prodigics will now and then appear, bowever, and New York hoasts onc of more than ordinary character and inter- est. Her name—Viola Regina Dace—is some- thing of an obstacle at the outset, but the *in- fant phenontenon,” as Mr. Crummles would call ber, cannot be blamed for parental idiosynera- sies. Miss Viola, at the age of 14, not. only has the voice, stature, and appearance of a mature ‘woman, but givesrecitations with an intellectual discriminstion and a vocal variation and power which few mature women possess. Nor docs she attempt picees of less difficulty than the balcony sccne from * Romeo and Juliet,” 4 The Maniac,” *“The Engincer's Story,” etc. Her debut was made before 2 select audience in the cosy theatre of the Union League Club, and occasfoned as many compliments os it did ex- pressions of wonder. Her Juliet, for instance, ‘was compared favorably with that of actresses who believe Juliet to be their best impersona- tlon; while her power of pathos was attested by asuspiclons glitter of the eyes during the re- cital of * Warden, keep a place for me.” Alto- gether, Miss Viola Regina deserves honorable Brilliant Ball of the Old Guard at the Academy.

New YORE, Jan. 25.—A young Jady who lives on Murrsy Hill says the last ball of the Old Guard—at the Academy, Thursday week—was also its best. When Iadd thata New Yorker ‘would no more think of questioning the opin- jon of a younglady who lives on Murray Hill than be would of moving to Boston, the force of the authority appears. It did not requh:c the eyes of a young lady to see that the affair was sufficiéntly brilliant and noteworthy to lead the society movement of the winter. A military ball hasea large advantage in point of showi- ness. It makes a deal of difference in that re- gard whether the gentlemen are shut up to black and white, or allowed to array themselves in blue and gold. The Old Guard uniform is of striking character, and the effect is completed when the hero of peace no less than—possibly much more than—of war dons his huge Hessian headgear. The white coats of the Guard con- trasted finely with the dark-blue of the many military visitors, and, when the dancing was at fts height, still more eflective contrasts were made by the assistance of ladies’toilets of every shade and variety. Between 2,000 and 3,000 people were present, either as participants or spectators. Oncof the most noted of the en- tire assemblage, noted both by his dress and position, was Mr. Bulher, the Consul-General of Holland, who was in full court attire—black coat elaborately embroidered in silver, white trousers, and a rapier. The decorations were beyord criticism in taste and appropriateness. Catching a long breath of the air wafted from the perfume-fountains, and looking down ona scene so dazzling,'the poctic element naturally rose within me, and I conld have quoted then, I could even quote now—but I forbear. The Fouug lady from Murray Hill said there was bat asingle regret. Had the handsome the Grand Duke Alexis been there, it would have been perfectly splendid! THE MAD GIRL. The absence of Alexis was made up for to some extent by the presence of H. J. Montague, the actor, who is put down as theidol of femi- nine Gotham, and much persecuted in conse- quence, though he does not seem to lose flesh over it. Montague, by the way,is at present the victim of a most violent attachment on the part of a young lady of good family and educa- tion, traveled, and attractive. She is calied “ the mad girl ™ by reason of her infatuation, ich allows the actor little peace. She sends him gilt-edged notes daly, draws attention by standing in front of his residence and gazing pensively at the closed shut- ters, goes to the theatre whenever he plays, and in every way possible discovers hier foolishness. Of course she was at the ball, and as near Montague as she could get. She refused all attentions, did not dance, and de- voted her eyes to the prosceninm-box in which £at the “carpet kmight so trim” of manya stage-fight and many a real revel. It might be 2 good thing for the Foung lady to read some of Young, beginning with the lines: How distant oft the thing we dote on most From that for which we dote, Felicity! TIGHT BOOTS AND BESSIE TURNER. The only distressing incldent of the ball, 50 far as known, was occasioned by boots which proved too tight evenfor the foot feminine. The fair wearer was obliged to limpto the dress- ‘ng-room two hours carlier than she wanted to, 1nd to go homein chegrin and her gallant’s gum shoes. Of another ball at the Academy ome nights later it conld scarcely be said, as of 4is, that boots werealone in being tight. A rther incident, not distressing, was the send- zof reporters to interview Miss B. Turner, 730 was said to be present. One or two young sadies assumed the roleat the solicitation of a wag, but the interviews were not published. To allsy any possible suspicions, and 35 2 matter of courtesy to the Old Guard, it is proper to state authoritatively that Afr. Bennett was not secn on the occasion. Gifted young man, to be ot seen, but sea-ing. . MASKED GAYETT. N The bal masque of the Cercle Francais ae T Harmonie, Monday night at the Academy was Dot 5o successful as in other years, and possibly not o high in tone, though much was not, to be expected of itin that regard. There was con- siderable French gayety and French abandon, with a rise to hilarity in the later morning bours. In variety and quality of costume the ball was below the standard very far, Itis per- haps cnough to say that the features which scemed most pleasing were the “can-can,” danced by bired' professionals to opera-boufle music, and the * Thunder and Lightning Quad- ille,”—a naturally striking and loud piece,—by the Caron family, of Paris. Among the pleces of music were tne quadrilles Lucifer! Quadrille Infernal, Orphee auz Enfers, avd La Vie Paris. fenne. Al the music was livelr, ss were also wany who danced to it, and it is spoken of as rather a remarkably creditable thing to the managers that no break of order occurred. . ART MATTERS. In the way of art attractions there has been enough to hold attentifon. Thke chief pleasure, beyond question, is derived from the exhibition of water-colors at the Academy of Design. This is the tenth annual exhibit, and the best, moreover, of the American Society of Painters in Watei-Colors. Boston and New York furnish most of the work. I have been looking for something representative of Chicago artists, tut unsuccessfully as yet. It is strange, in view of the popularity of water-colors, that painters devote so little labor: comparatively to them, and that little sometimes grudgingly. ‘The work may not be so ambitious on the one hand, but cn the otker it requires a tasts and dalicacy of the first order. Among the 529 numbers, which fill comfortably the space at the Academy, are numerous gems that start the purchasing-fever to quick life. It is gratifying to note that ogr home artists present pictures ‘which hold their own beside those of the for- eigners who contribute, though among the latter are Meissonicr. Villegas, Detaille, Vibert, Berne-Belleconr, and DeLeuce. The eale of the Artists’ Fund Soclety paint- ings, of which I epoke last weck, has been fair for the times. The first nizht showed receipts of nearly £12,000, the highest price for a single picture being a trifie over. §500. Other sales have been in progress at the varjous galleries, Leavitt’s, Schenck’s, Barker’s, etc. The stock -in market is plenteous, but the buyers are few. VALUABLE AND ODD BOOKS. - The nexi-door neighbor to an art sale is that place as a natural prodigy, to use a contradic- tion in terms. THE PIOUS YOUNG MAN. ‘This class of person has made a public ap- pearance twice during theweek,—once in Brook- Iyn and once in New York. He was a theologi- cal student, a scion of the honorable house of Van Rensselaer, a foreign tourist, and a swin- dler of credulous boarding-house mistresses. There he was the author of sermons for a con- verted Jow, the $8 editor of a religious weekly, and the counterfeiter of Government notes. The theological student had a winning address and no money. His trunk was delsyed some- where on the road by the .dreadful snow. His European. journcyings had divested him of narrow prejudices, and he displayed a familiarity with whist, euchre, and even poker, which delighted the lady and opencd the eyes of thegentlemen-boarders. 1l borrowed §2 of the landlady to pay a trifling bill, took all the spare articles he could find in the yarious rooms, and ‘went away without waiting for dinner or saying farewell to the ladies. After a few repetitions of this programme, the scion of the Van Rens- sclacrs was deposited in the Tombs—and not those of his ancestors, cither. In Brooklyn, the §S cditor and sermoun-writer kept himsell busy in mood works. He told the lady of his house that he could not bear to go into the streets at night, because he saw SO MANY WICKED PEOPLE THERE. To avoid these wicked people hie remained at home and devoted himself o raising two dollar bills to tens. When weary of this diversion he would read the old lady, who was happily bard of hearing, the sermous finished for tiic next Sunday’s use of the converted Jew. As i1l luck would have it, this exemplary young man of Brooklyn so far overcame his fear of mecting evil folk as to saunter forth and offer onc or two Dbills of his own workmanship. His first success caused the discharge of a shop-zirl; his second success was a _fail- ure, and caused his own arrest. Inno- cence shone on his features, but stencil plates and other apparatus came forth as witnesscs from his trunk. The most stslwart piety was powerless in the presence of such proof, and, despite most ingenious explanations, the relig- ious weekly was deprived of a contributor, and the reliziois world of an ornament. Extra at- tention has been given to both these young men in the various papers, because they were appa- rently pious, as if that were a reproach to some- thing or somebody. Any fraud can profess piety, but no fraud can injure it. H. G. MUNICIPAL SALARIES. From Qur Own Correspondent. NEw Yomx, Jan. 24.—Mr. Langbein has in- troduced at Albany a bill not less favored by the taxpayers than ‘opposed Ly ithe oflicchold- ers of this city. By its provisions the municipal salaries are reduced to the amount of $456,150. This desirable result is accamplished both by lessening the number and pay of officials, prin- cipally by the latter method. Among the changes the following are the more important: The Mayor will receive §10,000 instead of $12,- 000; -the Corporation Counsel, $8,000 instead 0f $15,000; the Commissioner of Public Works, $6,000 instead of §10,000; the President of the Board of Police, $6,000 instead of $8,000; the Presideat of the Fire Department, $5,000 instead of &7,500; the President of the Health Department, §4,500 instead of $6,500; the President of the Common Council, $2,500, instead of $5,000; the Aldermen, $2,000 instead of $4,000; the Superintendent of Build- ings, $3,500 instead of $6,500; the Chamberlain, $6,000 for salary and $4,000 for clerks instead of #830,000; Police Court Justices, $6,000 instead of $8,000; Justices of the Supreme Court, $4,000 instead of $11,000; Justices of the Superior Court and Common Pleas, $10,000 instead of $15,000; the City Judge, $5,000 instead of $15,000; the clerks and subordinates of the Mayor’s office, $10,000 instead of $33,000; the cmployes of the Aldermen, $10,000 instead of $20,000; the Corporation Attorney, $4,000 in- stead of $5,000; the Commissioner of Wurors, $4,000 fnstead of §15,000; and the President of the College of the City of New Yorl, $6,000 in- stead of $6,730. A THE MOST TENDER SPOT TOUCIED by the bill is unquestionably located in the Board of Aldermen. Tbat any man should dare even to propose the division of an Alder- man’s salary is indeed an unusual show of temerity, and will be punished, if the outraged Councilmen can bring it about, in properly se- vere manner. True, the proposed reduction would save the city $44,500, but what is that when compared with the possible loss of the Board? Forit must be remembered that it costs money to get clected, even in the casiest wards, and that $2,000 would be no inducement at all to a man who realized that the great ring and great jobs had passed bevond his reach. ‘The Leaviest reduction, in reality, falls upon the judiciary. In the Superior Court and Conrt of Common Pleas $60,000 would be saved; in the Supreme Court, $57,500; in the police courts, $22,000; in the civil courts, §22,500; and in the clerks and attendants of the civil courts, $79,400; making n total of §221,400 in these de- partments of justice, or nearly one-half of the entire reduction. The salaries of three TFirc Commissioners, amounting now to $12,500, arc abolished; also those of two Health Commis- sloners, who received $3,500 each. Three Tax Commissioners, who were paid $11,500 in agere- gate, and three Dock Commissioners, who drew $8,000, arc disposed of in equally summary style. Strenuous efforts will be made to secure the passage of this bill. The leading business men are aroused to the nceessity of a thorough re- form in the City Government, and there is a thorougbly practical moyement in that di- rection. THE MUNICIPAL SOCIETY has already conferred with the heads of various departments, and met with so cordfal reception that it was decided to call on the Mayor and Comptroller, “to express the interest felp by the Committee in the Government of this city, 2ud to tender to these gentlemen its cordial sympathy and co-operation in the discharge of their official duties.” Among the members of this Society are such men as William Cullen Bryant, John Jay, Theodore Roosevelt, William Orton, Oswald Ottendorfer, David Dorws, How- ard Potter, Horace B. Claflin, William 1. Ap- pleton, Joseph H. Choate, and Levi P. Morton. Much hope in regard to the improvemedt in city affairs is founded on the position taken by Mayor Ely, who is emphatic in the assertion thatiit is highly needful to simplify the City Goy- ernment. - He favors, moreover, a distribution of powers among the different departments, and the cutting down of the number of Commis- sioners, mot seeing why one head would not suit in some of the departments as well as three or four. Better still, the Mayor, who has been diligently studying the present system in all its Qetails, is convinced that the city could get on quite a5 well with half the number of employes now engaged. In nearly all points, therefore, he is professedly in warm sympathy with the propositions prescated by Mr. Langbein. He must be excepted also, in company with some other of the higher officials, from the list of those who oppose the reduction in salarics. TLAIN TALK. Speaking of city afairs, in connection with an address made by Mr. Cowdin to the Assembly, an evening paper editorially indulges in these plain remark Mr. Cowdin shovws that while §n 1635 the valoa- tion of city property was 242 timesas much as its bonded debt, in 1875 it was only nine times as much. The bonded debt in 1. amounted to £3.75 to each inhabitant: i bonded debt hnd increased to $117,0600,000. rep- resenting taxation of §111.96 per head. The in- crease of the city debt far outruns the growth of city population.” No people can_ bear these bur- dens for any length of time, no community can flourish under such conditions. Js it nota inon- strons anomaly that, while the highest price puid for labor on the Riversidc Boulevard, now under contract, between Scveaty-second and One hundred-and-thirtieth streets, f; nincty cents a day, $10,000,000 are lawfully distributed among the 8,700 officers and employes who control the rgtrunl'_’e and administer the affairs of this city? While the maes of laborinz men are anable to find employment at over §1a day, if they find it at all, the_sclect few favored by city departments receive $1.60 per day It must be patent to _bouleard la- Dorers thut cvesy man receiving employment direct. from the city through Aldermanic or other official inflaence robs thew and their little ones of exactly sixty cente per day. With the price of labor at 31, in open market, every jive 1men who by especial favor receive $1. 60 per day, take the bread out of the months of three men who ‘may be anxious and willing to work at$1, and yet are forced to remain idle beeause they can find nothing to do. ‘Whileappropriations for city purposes are still on areckless scale of extravagance, the city tax-re- 332)\5 are coming inata rate of 318,000 to$20, - a day, instead of $60,000 to $80,000; and there remalns $7,000,000 unpaid of the tazes of 1876, and eome $5,000.000 os taxes of previous, ears. Many of these taxes wiil only be collected 2 ealc of the property. It iwithin our knowl- edge that people in well-tg-do drcumstances, as far as_theownership of land ‘is conterned, have been obliged this year to mortaage their property to the extent of 50 per cent of its vresentmarlkct value in order to provide for the payment of a3scssments for constructing roadways on beulevards, and like- wise to mect the taxes of the, past year. This looks ominouz. Failing the syplication of an fm- mediate and sharp remedy, this coursc of affairs must [ne\‘lknblf’ wind np " in tie city bankruptey, Very many real-estate owners have, through ina- bility to mect nssessments and taxes, been already crushed out of existence. More than a little bas beea said here and else- where in regard to the sad state of municipal matters in Chicago, and no doubt with reason. It may be encouraging to the burdened to know that they are not companioiless, and that there are other places where they would have to pay vet more mills on the doilar for whatsocver they were so unhappy as topossess. H. G. ‘What Came Ina Potato. Worcester (Musv.) Spy. A friend of ours receired a day or two n% through the Post-Office, from Olyinpia, Wasli- ington Territory, a roundih, irregular package, which, on exumination, proved to contana large potato, Further investigtion showed that the potato had been cut into'znd the inside scooped out,and in the cavity were found flowers and Icaves, which, as he learnad by a note previously reccived, bad been pickad in a garden in the open air on the 26th dsy of December.
