Ia ae ere ec 3 i of the victims, being prominent men, were wealthy, but a correspondent writes that they were nearly all men of limited means and have ‘loft dependent families. Virginia has by no means recovered from the ravages of war, and “many of her proudest and at one time most opulent and most prominent families are now destitute. The charity of New York will respond most generously to the appeal. The Public Debt Statement. Mr. Boutwell’s May exhibit of the public debt is a more gratifying one than that for the previous month. The reduction of the debt for the last month was $11,697,793, The coin balance in the Treasury is $115,525,000, in- ‘eluding $33,840,000 in coin certificates, ‘There are two facts worthy of particular notice in this brief statement. One is that there is a continued reduction of the debt from month to month, and that as time ad- vances and the country settles down to a normal condition the greater the reduction within a given period. Another is that not- withstanding the quarterly payments of the ‘Treasury in April the coin balance on hand is ‘enormous. Near twelve millions of the debt paid in one month is something to talk about and to make the people ‘of this country and our creditors abroad feel assured that our debt can be liquidated without much difficulty. It shows the enormous wealth and resources of the country. Then a hundred and fifteen millions of gold in the Treasury ought to satisfy any one that specie payment is not de- ferred for the want of coin. This is almost as much specie as the Bank of England has in its vaults to represent the circulation of England. Secretary Boutwell has given notice that he will sell again a million of gold a week; and were he to sell two millions or more a week the Treasury would still be full. Such is the enormous income from the growth and increas- ing business of the country. Still much re- mains to be done to relieve the country of the burden of taxation. The taxes ought to and can be greatly reduced, and still, with economy, a large surplus would remain for the extinguishment of the debt. Tur Covnom anv THE Docma.—It appears that the Holy Father has positively declined to lay the letter of M. Daru from the French government before the Ecumenical Council, but that the bishops who absented themselves when they supposed that the dogma of infal- livility was to be pressed upon the Council have been urged to return. We wonder if the Pope has been thinking that there may be some fallibility in this thing of infallibility which may be made infallible by a compromise. Perhaps it is so. PERSONAL INTELLIGENCE.

Death Under Singular Circamstances—A Young Man in His Caro 9 Dies in an Area—A Female Companion Sleeps on His Body. Coroner Rollins was yesterday called to the Eighth precinct station house to investigate a somewhat singular case of death. Shortly after four o'clock yesterday morning officer McKinley, of the Eighth precinct, in going his rounds, discovered two persons lying at tne bottom of a flight of steps of premises 118 Bileeeker street. An examination, which the oilicer made at once, showed that a wo- man was lying across the body of a dead man, and that she was fasi aslvep.

Philips, deceased, formerly. Assistant District Attorney under John McKeon. ‘The testimony showed thac deceased had been drink- ing to excess on Sunday, and at two o'clock in the morning he left 295 Wooster street, telling a female companion that he should take a car and ride up to Central Park. After leaving the house, however, deceased met Mary Lee in a porter house, and taking a drink or two they started off together. In s'aggering a ong Bleecker street they stepped into the unprotected area and fel! to the bottom of the fight of stairs, Phillips falling with so much force as jto burst a panel from the basement door with nis head. Doubtless the injuries reduced him to insensioility, from which he did not recover. The woman tell across hus body, and being so loeply intoxieat.d failed to compre- hend what had happened and sank into a sound sleep over the corpse of ler more unfortunate com- pinion. When brought to a realizing sense of her condition by offic.al in:erference Mary was almost horror-stricken, — prom/si to sign the Pledge and never more indaige in the use of Prone drint Dr. Join Beach examtied the body of Mr. Phillips, and tn his opinion death resulted from concussion of the brain, caused by the fall, and such was the ver- of the jury.

The presence of 30 many representatives of the press, prominent citi zens and nabitu’s of the theatre, showed that the occasion was one of no ordinary interest, while the cheerful beaming faces of the friends of the genital Mr, Conway and the accom Plished lady, his wife, to whose skilful management and educated taste the lovers of the drama in Brook- lyn owe so much, testified abundantly to the esteem and admiration in which Mra. Conway is held by the public, It was the first appearance of Miss Conway, the accomplished daughter of the talented proprietors of the theatre, in a leading character, and the reception accorded her was of course hearty and enthusiastic, The piece selected for her débat was chosen, being the “Daughter of the Regiment,’’ it must be said that in manner and appearance the débutante worthily represented Doniattte’s ideal of the F ch vivandiere, When the curtain rose at the appointed hour the audience evidenced thelr sarisfuetion; for the dre-ses, appointments and svenery were all that could be desired; but, when later, the sweet voice of Mart phine (Miss Con- way) was heard from behind the seenes, applause was loud and Jong, and her appearance before the footlights was greeted with unnustakable marks of appreclation, She was dressed fauitieasly and bore herself most becomingly for a novice in such a trying sitnation, Her volee is strong and flexible and shows careful cultivation, and when Miss Conway gains complete control over that natural nervousness which 4, perhaps, insepe- rable in all first appearances on the stage, she will undoubtedly gain laurels as a balladist. Her acting in the piece, which is so well known that a deserip- tion of the plot is useless, indicated that with more of Mrs, Conway’s caretul tuitton and the confidence which ts had by experience she will become a worthy ussistant to her talented mother, At the end of the first act she was called before the curtain and warinly applauded, whe beautiful Louquets were lavishly bestowed upon her by adiniring fricads, it was such a reception as any actress might be proud of. The support rendered Miss Conway by the company was admirable. The following was the cast :--Manie Josephine, the Daughter’ of the Regiment, Miss Minnie Conway; Guillot, a Peasant, Mr. James Dunn: Sergeant Scullade,’ Mr. Jotn Clark; Pumpernickle, Mr, E, Lamp; Duke Archau- baut de Grandteie, Mr. A.

Howard, At the conclusion of the piece Miss Conway was again calied betore the curtain, and when she ap- beured with her mother the applause was tumult- uous, The audience insisted on having a speech from Mr. Conway, end that gentleman accordingly stepped bejore the curtaln and feeitngly remarked, m responee to the plandits that greeted him, that he was overpowered by the kindness of his friends, and that although he had prepared an adddress suitabie tothe vecasion he found himaelf unable to freely express the feelings which animated him at the mome The gathering there was more like & social ree ion of friendsfthan anythingfelse, and he Was delighted that it was so, for il was an evicence of the kind feetings which the citizens of Brooklyn entertained towards Mrs. Conway, lis daughier citizen of (he an’ himself.

The mise en scene and appointments were of the most superb character, a tropical moon- Night by Voegtlin being particularly — ar- tustic. Judging from the first representation the play seemed to be made up of the stalest Bowery dieuts—caitits carousing; robbers in am- @ particularly uninteresting chief villain, in love with a female dramatic “stick; a 1ot of non- ies to represent the French court; oaths of vengeance by the dozen; pistol shots and Protean business of the most unnecessary kind, and the dialogue mainiy consisted of well kuown phrases, dear to the memory of the east side peal masticators: “Ha! there's a 8 cet!’ “'Tis ne, yet it cannot be him “The hour of venge: eis wt hand!” “Biood? blood! and the ike. eve was @ Parisian bully of decided Hibe:niin extraction and a lover who had aconvenient way of transferriog his affections at a momenv’s notice. Miss Thompson acted wiih her accustomed vivacity, and displayed abtitty of a decided character’ in this new line; and) Mr, Harry Jackson went far towards redecming the “utter imanity of the drama by his quiet humor and perfect command of each situation. He played the part of a Spanish buce: heer, Weich hs made the principal feature oi the play, and his impersovation was a relief from the mouotony Of the rest of the cast.

Everything that could be doue ior it im the way of mounting and appowtments las been furnished by the man- agement, but it woud have been better for Miss ‘Thompson and Messrs.

Tus GRAND Opeka House—“TWELVE Tepra- TioNS.”—There was an immense crowd at the Grand Opera House last evening, which was drawn together in anticipation of the first appearance of the new Spanish Ballet Troupe. This new attraction made their first appearance in the fi!th scene of the second part of the play, and their superb dancing soon made them great favorites with the audieace. ‘The dancing of both the ladies and gentlemen of tne troupe was really splendid, Senora Cecilia in a spe cla! manner bemg worihy of particular mention for her exceeding grace in tripping the light fantastic, In fact, the like of it has not often been scen in tins ciuy. The troupe is certainly & very strong addition to the many attractions of the “Twelve Tempta- i " and there caunot be the slightest doubt that Hea, at least, aie really Spanish, tor they are as homely as they are gracettl. Woov's Museum.—A burlesque of the farous Auberian ope! 1% Diavoio,” was given yesterday at this world renowned litite theatre. There was a tolerably Jarge atvendance at the evening perform. ce, and the sisters Rand and Mr. Leftingwelt burlesqued to perfection the leading characters in this most effective of all the operas. Asa burlesque it was mirth-provoktng and sulfictently broad to reach tle mest obtuse undersianding and the most iguorant of playgoers. = Makiwg every allowance for the necessity imposed upon burlesque writers to be outracevusly fu iny, it may still be permitted to inquire Whether something of the beauties of an opera might not be preserved without having recourse to valgir songs ind lacci- vivua dances, Mr. Leffiugwet!'s vetce must ne heard to be understood. No desripton can do it justice. His versatility of talent is seliom equalled on any boards, and he may justly be regarded as an ac- ceasion to any management.
