How Fisk Frys His FairiesTho Cvrisped Coryphee’s Casunity. Notwithstanding the studied sifence of the Grand Opera House management in regard to the recent burning of a member of the bailet In the Demon Can- can at that place of amusoment, the HERALD has ob- talned.a complete history of all the circumstances, and full particulars of the recklessness with which the management surrounds tts employés with dangerous fireworks. In the Demon Cancau twenty-four girls compose the ballet, sixteen of whom carry a daming torch in each hand, The material used tn the composition of the torch is highly inflammable, and is liabie to be shaken down upon the persons of the coryphéea by any slight movement. ‘The coryphte who was burned last week was standing in the wings of the stage awailing her turn to appear beiore the audience, when one of her com- panions accidentally spilled the contents of her torch upon the coryphée’s head and shoulders, set- ting her hair on fire ana padiy burning her ears, face and hands, notwitnstanding that a coat was thrown over her. There were no precautious taken by the management to Ineet such @ casualty, aud out for the promptness of some one standing near at hand the coryphée would have becn dangerously injured, end Sites in the cancan are liabie to be badly burned at any moment, and the audience may some night be shocked by the cruel roasting of some per- former on the stage. whe peril might be lessened without diminishing the effect of the scene by giving each coryphée but one torch, a3 they could then move with more steadiness and have one hand free to protect themselyes; but going upon the staze as they do, with @ torch tn each hand, requires the test care to prevent setting each other’s combustible headdresses and apparel on fire, The burned coryphée is slowly re- covering from her injuries, and will resume her position in the ballet next week, Her husband ty with her, and everything haa been done by him and their friends to alleviate ber saftering; but she ta sull subject to great pain, and 1s unable to uress without assisiance. REAL ESTATE MATTERS, ° The Propezed Removal of the New York Stock Exchange. The market yesterday showed more animation, but no now features. Several sales occurred at the salesroom, which were weil attended, but the prices obtained do not show any improvement. The Stock Exchange yesterday, by a vote of 480 to 141, empowered the Governing Committee to select asite for a new building. The committee have not yet decided on any site, and mucn sterest isfeltin down town reai estate circles respecting their intention, as very important interests aro in- volved in their selection. Among other propositions under consideration it ts stated that Mr. Edward Matthews, who owns alarge number of butidings in the neighborhood of the present stock Exchange, oifers to put up a buiiding be- tween the Stock Exchange and Deimonico’s which will cover ninety-three feet on Broad and New sireets, and which will extend from one street to the other, making @ depth of 153 feet.

For weeks past the Long Island town elections have created unusual attention, owing to tne divi- sions ta the democratic ranks and the harmony and good will Which pervaded tne republicans. A new interest was added to the contest owing to the en- dranchisement of the negroes. The stgria of Mou- day had the effect of bringing out a large vote, as the farmers and laborers could not work. The contest in each town was bitter and much hard feeling existed, ospecially in Jamaica and Newtown, where there are rival rings. In Jamaica there were three stump caudidates on the demo- cratic side, for Justice, Town Clerk and Collector, as the discontents beifeved from a recount of the vote tuat they had veen fraudulently rejected. Tho negroes turned out In force and polled over 150 votes. The democratic pediers worked bard to force them to voto om their side, and in sey. eral cases were successfill. One negro, who bad evidently inbibed irecly, went forward to vote, but he was challenged on the gronnd of being a non-resident. Tne inspector Loid Dim that if he wilfully voted wrong he would be puntshed, to which the sable descendant of Ham replica—Ob, that’s it, isit? Then I won't vote.” He resided in Newtown. In this iatier place there was much alii. culty, and the people found it pecessary to place unemselyes under the protection of twenty-live Metropolitan police. There were fully three hun- dred ‘repeaters on hand from. Kings county aud this city. It was onenly stated that the New Yorkers were transported by Liurry Genet to aid the ring, of which he was once a member and ran for Assmblyman, but was beaten by Mr. Man. rice, Im several towns the votes were kept Lil to- day to be counted, So far as beard from the demo- crats have a victory.
