EW YORK'S BRIC-A-BRAC COLLECTORS—EN WHO PAY FABULOUS PRIOFS FOR OLD CHINA—THE ENG- LISH TOURIST ABROAD—A BRITISH BARONET aT A CUBAN OPERA. New Yore, April 15. At would surprise the practical man, who es teems a five hundred dollar set of china dishes Yor his table an extravagant luxury, if he knew The immense sums that certain New Yorkers Spend every yearin fne pottery, porcelains and Stoneware Which have no practical utility. A gentleman who fs far from being a millionaire called last week at one of the stores in the Vicinity of Union Square where choice porce- Jains, pottery, &c., are sold, and saw a pair of Plaques decorated with lilies” He asked the price, and when told that the pair could be purchased for $3,000 he wrote out his check with feverish haste, as if he feared a rival would get the treas- ures.” A practical man, not enjoying the taste of & collector, would have deemed $10 a high price for them. COLLECTORS INCREASING IN NUMEER. Previous to the Centennial there were pract!- gaily no collectors in this country. Now New ‘York has scores of them, fifteen of whom are of wide reputation, and half adozen dealers do a driving business'in catering to them. Collectors 9f pottery, porcelains, bronzes, ivories and cut- lass are Yearly becoming more numerous in New crx, and many very" Intelligent collectors in the large Western cities are springing into promt. Bence. In the cultivation of this hobby America Dids fair to surpass the rest of the world. The taste once formed, the devotee to old ware has a degree of enthusiasm known in no other line of luxury. Nor is the enjoyment of the “Keramte the novice calis 1t, a wasteful luxury. : ctor who meets with a reverse his treasures for more than ny pieces of Chinese and Jai cost $100 each have been s for $5,000 or more. JAPANESE ART TREASURES. ‘When the feudal system was abolished in Japan tm 171 the aristocracy were forced to part with | ‘Uheir art treasures, the sale of which saved many | of them from absolute want. Diplomats and American residents in China and Japan are very ‘apt to becom: tors, and the purchases they ave made and thrown upon the American market, | Irom necessity or as a speculation, have helped | ‘The’ Chinese, like | start the Keramic craze here ‘the Japanese, Keramic art fs in its decadence, and | the former have produced nothing highly valued by collectors since 1800. In the Ming dynasty, When the Chinese emperor kept bis potters, with whom time and money was no object, they | produced ware which many a collector would now | ve his fortune to possess. It was during this lynasty that the famous peach-blow vase was made. Occasionally a distinguished Chinaman | or Japanese brings over a chuice specimen, but most of the rare objects are sent over by im- porters, BRONZE AND CHINA. A few wealthy New Yorkers make a spectalty of Drones. France furnishes some splendid ex- amples of modern subjects, and the Russtans are noted for their bronze animal pieces, that are Marvelous as to details. An importer showed the writer a Russian bronze representing a herd of Russian horses, and valued at $1,000. To the novice Who could more readily appreciate the object than biz green vase perfectly plain and valued at $5,000, {he bronze seemed the more valuable object. ‘They are now making some fue bronzes in New York, one of which is the statue of Garfield, to be erected in Washington. America is turning out some fine potteries and porcelains, too, and one Gib-avenue dry-zoods merchant makes a Specialty of collecting American specimens, ‘The choicest examples, however, come from abroad. In certain | lines of cut glass American makers are beginning | Ww cater to collectors, although they have ‘not as yet mastered the at of turning out the best stem goods,” such as goblets and champagne A New York cut-glass collector has just paid $2,000 for a set of champagne glasses cut in the ew spiral style, showing finely carved Howers twining about the glass Uke vines about a tree. The dealers in chofce china and glass are very particular to employ clerks with steady nerves, but once in a while an accident will occur. Last week a clerk in one of these stores let fala vase Which looked Like a very ordinary affair, but It | Was Valued at $3,000, and the accident éost the | firm ap amount equal to the clerk’s salary for two | years, AMONG THE NEW YORK COLLECTORS of Keramics is Mr. Chas. A. Dana, of the Sun; Mr. Brayton Ives, the banker; James F. Sutton, presi- dent of the American Art Association; Robert Hoe, jr., the printing press manufacturer, who has Some rare porcelains: H. OQ. Havemeyer, the sugar man, who Fanks high as a collector of ‘porcelains and Japanese pottery, and Wm. Roekefeller, of the ‘Standard O11 Co., whose porcelains and painungs are of great valle. The number of lawyers who have become collectors is large, among them being J. W. Cadwalader and Ss. i. M. Barlow, Among the physicians Dr. Lee 1s famous for his collection of rare ivories, and H. R. Bishop, the’capitallst, 18 celebrated for his bron Chicago has more collectors than any Western Wty, aud Baltimore and Boston rank next to New ork.

Havana, Cuba, April 3—No creature has been more widely caricatured, ridiculed and abused Than the British tourist abroad.

Correspondence of THE EVExixe Stam. It was an exceedingly delightful detour we made when, after leaving Puebla, our Pullman train was side-tracked at Santa Anna, and by tramway, with four mules, at break-neck speed, we were landed, after a ride of seven miles, at the little ancient City of Tiaxcala, the capital of the State of the same name. On our way, after passing through the quaint little villages of Santa Anna and San Pablo Apelitian, we drop into the nestling valley of the Rio Axotla, and soon andr ith a closely Snare bia an he daar se mane gushing wha “nica ay sak four thousand inhabitants, and seems but a shadow of its former greatness, as it once Dum- bered 40,000. Its one-story adobe huts, its it © Toosting-piaces for its tumb! own evidences of decay, all bespeak the poverty of its business interests and the slug- eg el : city what rine industry engaged the atten- Hon of the public. He replied ‘there was none. ‘There he, an abundance of silver, co} and coal in our mountains, just outside the city, Dut no one has the means or the disposition to make these mies productive. Our visit to the gover. nor’s palace and legislative hall was ex sly iu ,, a8 we were there shown the original charter ofthe city, granted by Philip 1J.; the spear of Cortez, the Silk banner he carried, the old Spanish title deeds, the robes the chiefs wore when they were baptized, a large collection of hideous stone idols, unearthed near the city, and ‘an ancient money-chest, with pockets for coppery silver and gold, the four great, keys being cari by four different officials. ‘There are many very fine portraits of distinguished Tlaxcalans, and an embroidery on silk, showing the first conflict with the Spantards. ‘The governor, a full-blood Aztec, received us very cordially, and through his interpreter said it was a’ joy to have Americans visit -his State, and he would YS do bis best to make them happy ever they came. No Mexican city, however poor, fails to have great plies of stone.ahd mortar in the shape of massive churches, Tlaxcala 18 not a whit bebind in this particular. In 1521 the foundation of the church of San Francisco was laid. Tt stands on a high terraced hill, reached by ‘a broad stone paved way, the atrium and the great bell tower standing ‘on the crest of the hil overlooking the plain below. ‘The visitor will fi much in this old structure that is interesting. One notes the carving of the cedar beams, the gilded screen over the entrance of the chapel of Guadalupe, the antique wood-work of the old altar, with illustrations of the life of the Virgin, painted in 1669, the altar of Dolores, e Tor the “burial of the angel children,” and the paint ings on the south side of the church of Notra Sea De Europa, and on the north side of Notra Sea De La Antigud, Tuereis an old organ, built in 1720—a wheel engirdied with small bells, which is turned, rattling and jingling during service. ‘Three "medallion pictures, near the chancel are worthy of especial notice. Entering the chapel adjoining the church there are very rich carviny and gildings, with pictures inserted, which Will attract the attention of every visitor. There 13 & highly artistic altar and a beautiful Shrine of the Mexican virgin Del Pueblito, and the old pulpit, from which, we are informed by the inscription in Spanish, the Christian faith was first preached in the new’ world. Here also is the old font where, In 1520, the four Tlaxcalan chiefs were baptized. From the atrium of this church, on the hill over beyond the plaza isseen the famous legende: shrine, Santuario de Ocotlan. Noticing an amphi- theater for the buil fight being built at the very front of the greatchurch San Franetsco,I asked my English-speaking gulde why the authorities mitted such horrid barbarities to be practiced on the Sabbath. He replied that it was necessary to SATISFY THE MASSES AND KEEP THEM QUIET. It is a strange fact that while the people every- where in Mexico regard the bull fight, with all its barbaritles, with a most ecstatic delight, their upathy for a thirsty dog prompts them to, put a pot of water in their doors, fastened with a | chain, that the thirsty cur may slake his thirst. ‘The visitors should not fail to Visit the beautiful terraced garden of a private citizen which is filled With choicest, rarest flowers. The plaza and gar- dens everywhere were fragrant with the perfume Of ros Stevias, acacias, pinks, sweet peas, abu- talous, and great trees were loaded with oranges and lemons, and limes. Leaving the city, with its strange people,we return by tramway to our train, and journey to the southward 82 miles to La Esperanza, where we side-track for a daylight Journey in our tortuous scenic descent from the elevated plateau down into the tropics. The sun never came forth into a more perfect sky of deep biue. In passing, it may be said, all days during the dry season are luminous with the golden sun- ‘shine in this ancient wonder land. The scenery, ever changing as we journey, cannot be described by pen of genius or brush of artist, and the tour- ist Is dazed with its grandeur. The elevation at Boca del Monte (mouth of the mountain) ts 7,924 eet above the level of the gulf. Down below, nest like a jewel amid a setting of rich and fertile: ey les the little village of Maltrata, its roofs domes radiant with a covering of bright red tile. ‘The scenery and high altitude make enthusiasts of the younger members of our party, and they elimb the coacl ride in the engineer's cab and on front of the bofler,and thus decorated, our train goes thundering down the fearful grade in long cireling lines into the beautiful valley of La Joya. ‘The little village presents a constant succession of changed views as we sweep around it twelve miles to compass a distance of t! in a straight line, ‘Silver streamlets rush down the mountain side, Watering the fields, covered with a wealth of grow- ing verdure. To —— the setting of this won- derfal picture, old Orizaba’s snow capped peak rises seemingly higher and higher as we descend into the plain below. We pass two stations on our way down this declivity, and at Maltrata a crowd of girls, tempt us with oranges, limes, citrons, pears, Sapadi eapples, bananas, pulque, sand other strange drinkables and-edibles. Leaving this gem of the Valley the scenery loses none of 1t8 interest. Our track hugs the mountain side, and we sweep in and out through tunnels, over curved bridges and alongside of the rushing Rio Bianco, ‘The view is asgrand as Alpine scenery. The fertility | of the valley 1s emphasized by tall trees of the cas. lor bean, great azallus coffee trees hibiscus and a wealtii of other exoties. We pass Little Hell, and the grounds where Indian athletes in the long-ago received prizes from the hands of dusky meidens. Passing an abrupt eminence, where & battle was fought June 14, 1862, between native soldiers and the Freneh, we'soon reach E ORIZABA, 181 MILES SOUTH OF MEXICO, acity of low, red-tiled roofs, with 18,000 inhabi- tants, The car shops of the Mexican Railway are here, and there isa large cotton factory, which We visitéd as we journeyed by tramway though its 0 and banana groves and its great coffee Plantations. The city is not lacking 1n churches, some of which were founded in the fifteenth cen- tury. Like all others in the republic, their walls are covered with extravagant paintings of dead- and-gone ecclesiastics and canonical saints. ‘This city has a native artist, Gabriel Bi whose paintings, found in every church in the city, are an exception to the general rule. With & | facile brush he has pictured “The House of Naza- reth” with the Christ child, the Virgin, the tea- pot, the carpenter's bench, with a tone of tender- ness and simplicity that is admirable. The old artist is now blind, but he leaves a son who in- | herits the tastes and methods which the father gathered from studies of other centuries.

She refused to dismiss him and received several Visits from him. At last there Was & stormy scene, and Uncle Berault afrived from Vineland and took his niece to that place against: her will. Why he was so interested in her miatri- monial prospects 1s not known; but strange Ties are alloat, whatever authenticity may attach THE FATAL WOUND. “A few days after being taken to the New Jersey town the unfortunate beauty received her death Wound. It wasat first given out that her injuries Were accidental, but two days later it Was stated that they had’ been self-inflicted. When the neighbors were called to the scene they found Miss Blanchard lying in her night-dress on the floor of her uncle's library, her head supported in his lap. Berault said he had been alarmed by the Teport of a pistol, and on going to the library had found his niece shot through the abdomen. A story was invented to the effect that the weapon had exploded in Marie's hands while she was ex- amining it, Two days later it was said she had inilicted the wound in order to bring about a re- conetlation with her mother, as 2, conlness ‘had Sprung up between them over the polite young Frenchman, Several days ago the ‘Girl made an affidavit, but ts contents have never been made public, ‘Everything that surgical sclence could do to save the Young’ lady's life was done; but all ‘Was without avall “In all her sufferings the hands of her mother never sought to ease her pain—not until her death was momentarily expected did she arrive to bid her daughter farewell. Lawyer Berault’s wife Was in bad health, and he went with her toa re- sort a day or two after the occurrence, and did not Teturn until Wednesday last. ‘The sick wife was Greatly pained by Marie's presence. ‘The reason never been given, but the girl 1s sald to have told a highly respected lady of Vineland that Berault Presented her with a diamond ring, which she only accepted because she feared her Uncle's displeasure. ‘The lady advised Miss Blanchard not only to return the ring, but to leave the house. It is aiso related that on the night be- fore the shooting Berault became so violent under the influence of drink that a carpenter named Morley had to be called in, and remained until midnight. Berault threatened to shoot several People, and 1¢ was only Morley’s superior strel (hat saved his relatives from violence, In early morning the shooting occurred.” A ee “A WILLEUL, COWARDLY LIAR.” Mr. Healy and Mr. Sexton Use Strong Language to Major Saundervon in the Hlouse of Commons—Healy Suspended Amid Great Excitement. ‘There wae tremenduous excitement in the house of commons last night during the debate on the new Irish crimes act, growing out of charges made against Parnellite members by Major Saun- derson, @ conservative member.
