The mere fact of their exictencois prima (fece proof of their truth, In the calm spirit of wosophy, it is easicr to believe in them as facts than to suppose that they, were invented. ‘There are two reasons why the romance of pistors should be protected irom assault.

We may not always be surc tuat these particular persons did act as represented, but unquestionably they world have done so if they had thought of it. ‘qaackenaT used,to lament that all his vest things occurred 10 him when it was too late to utter them. The clder of the Virginians, it wil be Temeinbered, went awav from an encounter of words sorrowfully on a qeriain occasion, because he had missed an op- portunity to make the most. ciishing retort of bis whole existence.

When Tuacz- rar himself, on looking casually at two piles of oysters, one of which was larger than the otber, remarked to afriend, How they must bate each other,” no doubt he was less sponta- peous than he appeared.

She started the thing when she disputed the existence of Mrs. Harris. It was as monstrous and unprovoked an assault as Archbishop WuateLy's inquiry into the exist- ence of NaroLeos Bonaparte. Since then there have been found persons to deny all tac best authenticated facts of history, and the worst bas not been told. We may hear at any moment that Procion was not compelled to pay the cost of his own execution, or that Apprson—the old reprobate!—did -not summon his stepson to see" how a Christian could die. (As if any Christian could not die; the bard thing is for a Christian tolive.) Already historians have arisen to deny that Mr. Bescnek, on a memorable Sunday morning, remarked that it was profanely warm; but we hare never heard anybody contradict the anec- dote, now for the first time given to the world, that Orway, when he choked himself to death with a crust. complained of being <diry. There has lately been an attempt to pervert history by a new interpretation of the last words of Marwiox., which Scorr bas givenas “ Charge, Cnester, charge," but which bave been transformed into “Charge it, Caes- Tex, charge it,” indicating the existence. of an unliquidated bill as between the English Knight and Mr. CHESTER, who was probably a tavern- keeper in the vicinity of the action.” Arsxan- ven STEPHESS, too, it secms, has been endeay- ong to prove that Juntus never was, which ‘prepares us to bear that “Slug Six” himself is aspwrit of evil. It is time a stand should be made acainst the cestroyers. ‘¢ Whatever fs, is right.” Al} the romantic deeds and words of history are not too many to keep men firm iu their convictions, and to make the good reason appear better than the worse. Whatever of heroism has been crys- tallized in permanent form ought to be kept there, without too curious an inquiry into the constituent clements of each fragment. It is enflicient if the effect of the whole adds to the sam of human happiness. a The re-opening of MeVicker's Theatre, which occurs to-morrow evening, should mark an epoch in the dramatic history of Chicago. We Gu not recall any other theatre in the country which can boast of a twenty-years’ career under the same management. McVicker’s Theatre has stared all the prosperity and all the re- verses of Chicago. It was built originally just in time to encounter the trials of the panic of 1557, and languished and struggled for some Sears after during the prevailing depression. Then the excitement of war times liffed it out | of the darkness, as it did many other institu- tions, and placed its owner 60 well ahead that he was abie to tear down the old and bufid a new and more elegant structure. The new ‘theatre had hardly been completed till the tire of 1871 swept it away; but McVicker'’s Theatre ‘ent up again in better shape than ever, like the city with which it was identified. Then came the panic of 1873, which the theatres and ail amusements have felt more severely during ‘the last year dr wo tian they did in the time , immediately succeeding the crash; but the same Yheatre and same management huve held the even tenor of their way. During all this time McVicker’s Tneatre has been what is called a “star” theatre, which is every- | whure a symbol of provincialism, because it recognizes a dependence upon central attructions furnished by single actors who have tame! some distinction elsewhere, But the departure from this system is now definitely aduounced, and henceforth McVicker’s Theatre ¥ill be managed mainly with a view to giving Chicago carefully-prepared and well-rounded Performances as a whole, producing new plays aud selecting actors with reference to the com- Pleteness of the performance rather than the individual attraction or novelty of a single actor. Philadelphia bas been emancipated from the provinciahsm of the “star” “system within 2yearortwo by the Chestnut Street Theatre. Aveffort is to be made at the Boston Museum this year 10 retarn to the permuneucy ot good Stock performances. If the Chicazo public de- Site to hare steady dramatic entertainments of a Sterling character, and to give them the promi- hence and attractiveness they ought to have as an element of metropolitauism, the new de- Parture at McVicker's will be received with hearty approbation and generous patronage. May take time to achieve the same degree * excellence as that attained by one theatre in New York, and one or two in London or Paris, but it is only by coercing recognition of Chi- 2g0 as a profitable dramatic centre that the same enterprise on the part of managers and aslarce an allotment of guod actors can be Secured. MeVicker’s reopens to-morrow night With Sarvov's comedy of * Seraphine,” which Tall then be produced for the first time in America, and by a company which certainly Gives the promise of an admiralble performance. Tae evening sky now presents to the view not Jess than four planets, in addition to the usual Gisplay of fixed stars. Venus is conspicuous in the west in the early twilight; she scts to-night abont Sh. 20m.

Delights of the Summer of England—The Youngest Old Man in Paris, THE CARDINAL’S. DAUGUTER, © Fome (July 15) Curresponaence New York Herald. * In former letters I sent you the latest devel- opments in the famous case of Lambertiui vs. Antonelli, which is now agitating all Rome.. it is well calculated to excite not ouly Rome, but the whole Christian world; for a claim.to the inheritance of the late Cardinal Antonelli ad- vanced by the Countess Lorcta Lambertini against the Cardinal's three brothers and heirs, |. Counts Gregorio, Angelo, and Luigi Antonelli, on the plea that she is 2 natural daugiter of his Eminence, and repeatedly recognized by him as such during bis lifetime, naturally arouses the deepest interest and concern. As the prop- erly lef by Cardinal Antonelli ts reported to amount, iu round numbers, to 40,000,000 francs, the award of the civil tripunal will be expected With great Interest, material as well as moral; andthe three brothers mean to defend their cause by every artifice the Jaw affords, nor will they bear ot any wegotiations foran amicable ar- rangement. _ ‘bis obstinacy on their part is very painful to the Vope, who, after so many years of intitnacy with his Cardia! Secretary ot State, had’an un- hited trust in him, and never would eredit any of the rumors which many years ago, and on successive occasions reached his cars respecting the tmmorality of Cardinal Antonclli’s private lite. His Holiness was. fascluatea by the Car- dinal, and used to say that the calumuies di- rected against hin by bis‘enemies were only the inventiuns of Iotriguers apxiows to eject him from office in order to make rooin for their own pattisuus. Even Mgr. de Merode, one ol Auto- nelti’s bitterest euemtes, Who Was certaiuly a very induential prelate in tue Vativan aud a most chivitirous champion of the Church, never could couviace Puy £X, that Cardimal Antoneiff, Was In tuauy respects a disgrace tu the Cardiual- ittan purple. On the contrary, De Merode felt out of the Pope’s favor for tryiug tu opea his eyes in this mutter. After Antonelli’s death, however, severul revelatiuns came out which shovk the Pope's previous faith, aud made bin auxious thal as litte as possivle should be said of his late Secretary of State. ‘It way be easily imagined, therefore, how de- sirous his Holiness 15 at the present conjunc- ture that the credit ot the Church and the tur fame of the Minister who guided the destinies of the Holy See fur so many years may not be tarnished by the scanduluus details wach ad- ‘verse lawyers will £0 rutiuessly drag into evi- dence in the publi size Court. ‘The Pope, however, has failed to pereyade the brothers Autouelli of the advisability of a con promise; aud, irritated by their presence, is oliness, a-few days ago, refused tu receaye one of them who had asked tor au audience in order toexplain the motives which determined him and his brothers to resist the claiins of the Countess Lambertini rather than purchase ter sitence by yielding to Ler a small portion of her soi-disant late fatuer’s enormous wealth. In the Vatican the Cardinal's gallant esca- ades have been known and talked of for years br every inmate of the palace. except, as have already eaid, the Pope himself. To prove tbe principal alleged facts of this singular case, amounting to fifts-three in num- ber, the Countess Lambertini’s advocates, in the first sitting of the tribunal on Wednesday, demanded that their witnesses should be heard. Among these there are three whose evidence is considered to be extremely important and con- clusive These are o priest, pow 70 years of age, a midwife, and the late Cardinal’s house steward or dean of the domestics. The Presi- dent of the Civil Tribunal will cive his deter- mination on this point next Weanesday. The dcfendants’ advocates maintain that it is super- fluous to listén to evidence relating to the pa- ternity of the Countess Loreta Lambertini, be in the Vopti eeptovee af Sante rity “at 1e55 abughter of Signer and Sygnora Marco- ni, her generally-reputed parents. The detend- ants have also formally intimated to the claim- ant that if she wakes use of a letter to the priest. above mentioned, on which her lawyers greatly rely, they will sue ber for iorgery, not admitting the autienticity af the document. Tals step would suspend the whote trial. Hitherto the scandalous chronicle of Rome had set down the Sienorina Loreta Marconi (now Countess Lambertini) as being reaily the daughter of Signora Marcon: with Cardinal An- tonellifor her father, but now the Countess claims to be a daughuer of ‘ bighly-connected foreign lady, still living and married, whose name will not be pronounced unless so required by the brothers Antonelli. Sneis ready to prove that her reputed motaer, Siguora Marconi, pecame acquaitea in 1850 with Cardinal Antonelli, with whom she established intimate relations. The lady kept an opticisn’s saop, and was 435 years old. Five years later she rendered the Cardinal a great: service by pretending to he enciente,in order to secount for the appearance fn.ner house ol a female baby. just born of a youug foreign Iady and brouglit to her by the saye-ferme in whose house the young lady’s ac- couchement had taken place, baving been recom- | mended tiere by Dr. Lucchini, who at the same time informed ‘the midwife of the Cardinal’s amours. Before and after her confinement the lady was visited at the midwife’s house ty Car- dinal Antouelli, who conversed with her in language themidwife understood svertain positively the relations existing between the lady and the Cardinal and the patermty attributed to the fatter. The young motber is said to have been of German parentage and moving in a high class of so- ciety. The Cardinal was subsequently in the habit of going frequently to sev his iniant daughter at Siznura Marcomi’s house, aud requested tac nurse to make the baby always Wear round her neck a gola medal which he gave her, bearing the inscription, Jacobo Antouellio, S. R. E. D. C. A. Publ. Negot. Pi, 1X. P.M. His Eminence also carried constantly about him his daughter's portrait in a red silk case. On driv- ing past Signora Marconi’s residence, he used to look up at the windows and smile at the baby, who was held there for him to ¥ee. At the child’s birth the Cardinal consignett to Signora Marconi 120,000f, the interest of which sum was to serve for ber maintenance and education, On agubsequent ozeasion he added 70,0Wf for the same purpose, and made presents to the child amounting in value to 20,000f. Meanwhile the child grew up, -but when her reputed mother died a few years ago it was found that she had spent not ouly the interest but the capital of the sums Which the Cardinal intended should form the fortune ol the young Loreta. Signora Marconi’s death was 4 great relicf to Cardinal Antonelli, who was fatigued and perplexed by her indiscreet demands.” She ‘left as guardian of the young lady a satirical journalist, estab- tabed bs Rome since the change of Government in 18% Mr. C—— waited onthe Cardinal at the Vati- can and informed his Eminence that he was in possession of all the facts relating to this affair and had become’the guardian of his daughte! Of course the Cardinal was anxious to_ avoid publicity, so “he at once handed to Mr. C—a sum of money for his daughter's maintenance, and 100,U00f,in two installments, for the young Loreta’s dowry. With this sum she married Count Lambertini, and subsequently went sev- eral times to see ‘her father at the Vatican. When she could not sec him she wrote to him, and he answered, these relations being main- tained until the Cardinals death. Such are the facts which the Countess’ advo- cates, Gallini and Tajaoi, the latter a distin- guished member of Yarliament, are prepared to corroborate, as they aflirm, by satisfactory evi- dence, including, it is said, that of the late Cardinal's confessor. : It is generally supoosza that Cardinal Anto- nelli’s great fortune was entirely made during bis period of office; buvitis a fact that nearly forty years. ago, when the then Abbe Anto- nelii applied for admission fnto the prelacy, tor which dignity the rules. of the Roman curia’re- quired the applicant tojbe im possession of a certaiu private revenue! he proved, by still ex- isting documents, to be the possessor of a fami- ly mheritance amounting to 5,000 scudi a year (5,000). The pacernal property was owned by the Cardinal in common with his brothers; nor did they ever divide it during his lifetime, the administration of it being left {0 their bands entirely, Asat the period of Cardinal Auto- nelli's death the italian code of civil law was and is now in vigor in Rome, the Countess Lam- bertini’s claims.as a natural daughter have a better chance of success. e THE CAPITAL OF HUNGARY.

But to appreciate the wild, racy, altogether in- aescribable flavor and.sublime, rugged beauty of Hungarian music you should come to Buda- pest and listen to one of the gypsy bands like that of Racz Pal. It is ‘music which seems to scize hold of overy nerve and pulse, of every heart-string, to vibrate it at will, to “stretch it to its utmost tension of ecstasy with its joy, and in the next momeut almost to rend it with the unutterable, despairing, sadness of itstone.

Witte Winter's London (July 7) Letter to New York York ‘Trioune, ‘The sky is softly blue and full of magnificent. bronze clouds; the air is cool, and in the en- virons of the city is odorous with the scent of new-mown hay; and the grass and trees in the parks~those copious and splendia lungs of London—are green, sweet, and heautifal. Persons *to the manner born” were lately. calling the season “backward.” and they went so far as to grumble at the hawthorn as being jess brilliant than in formér sea sons. But, in fact, to the unfamilia sense this bush of odorous coral has ocen de- cious. You know it, doubtless, as one of the swectest beauties of rural Enyzland. It deserves its reputation. We have nothing comparable with it in Northern Amenca, unless, perhaps, it be the elder of our wild woos; and even that,” with all its fragrance, lacks equal charm of color. They use the hawthorn or some kindred shrub for hedges in this country, and hence their flelds are seldom disfigured . with fences, ‘As you ride through the land you sce miles and miles of meadow traversed by these green and dlooming hedze-rows, and you find that they give the country a charm which is quite incum- municable in words.

You can easily imagine what « clo- rious dash of color that was, ina green land- scape lit by the afternoon sun! - Nobody could help loving a land that woos him with such beauty. English flowers, it must often have been no- ticed, are altoycther exceptional for substance and ‘pomp.

The journalists made 2 great’ many amusing articles upon this subject. Que represents Laferricre as a contemporary of the Wandering Jew; an- other declared him to be the Man’ of the Iron Mask.

You mean 17!” No, sire?? “Then how do you manage to preserve your youthful appearance?” Sire, I have discovered a marvelous water, which has the faculty.” . “ Bring me some of that water,” thundered the aged Koi Soleil. “Sire,” cried Laferricre, with indignation, “I am a comedian, and not a water-carricr.” Louis XIV. put tim in an iron mask, and sent bin to the fe St. Manzuerite, ‘This story, tuld ia an extremely sprightly wWay,-guve rise toan idea, or rather it led'to a curious adventure.

Many of the Chronicle's readers will yet remember the some- what romantic story of tbe marriage of Czar Nicholas’ favorite daughter to a dashing young German officer.

At any rate, romance end Royalty. do not seem to agree well, and the unionturned out badly. The Duchess tired of her former idol, a gay and dashing, but at the same time scholarly and thorougily honorable German, and began to form liaisons, the most notorious of which was with a Count Strogonoff. After a life of mortified seclusion aud constant study, the Duke died, refusing to recognize on his deathbed the two last chiidren borne by the Princess.
