Every paper in the city recorded Mr, Camp- bell's singular action, and Heap was not removed. After yesterday's triais a pomer of ‘Thirteenth precinct stalked into tue reporte room at the Central Omtee, in full uniform, ap- proached the reporter of the HERALD, Who was the only occupant, s'ated that he wanted the papers to “go for Roundsman Heap,” and he had a few dol lars to expend as a consideration for reporters. He Was quesiioned a8 to his motive, when lic admitted that he desired the Heratp and Sun to ‘go Heap,” and he would pay well for it, He was po- litely Informed that the reporter of the HEraLo was paid by nis employer, and he was referred to the representaiive of the Sys who gave him similar consolation.

A crowded audience accorded to it an ‘enthusiastic endorsement, not 80 much perhaps on account of the mtrinsic merit of the production as because of the maaterly Interpretation given to the role of Young Gosling by Mr. John 8. Clarke. A great deal was expected of Lim, and it is a pleasure to state that bis triamph last night was rendered complete. However great his efforts have hither- to been daring his present engagement, his per- formance last might excelled them all, The plaudits of the assemblage, mingled as they were with hearty and unrestrained laughter, were spontaneous and the result of thorough appreclation. Aa the title indicates, Young Gosling is not @ higuly intellectual character, but ratber of the booby order, and one Mable to get into diMeulties, His foolisiuess leads him into the ac- guaintance of a shi r named Fowler, who, evra: ing that be ts about to get married, coolly relieves him of his letters and personates him b-fore his betrothe?, The young lady, Rose, however, is in jove wih Philip Hartiey, and for the purjose of bringing about their union allows the impostor to carry on the deception, By Abe sthe Young Gos- luog turns up, ib 18 toi soarded. His indignation is supremely ludicrous, Philip, to jorther = bis own is, contrives to get Fowler and ing Goring to fight a duel, in order to rid the house of both of them, — It Was here that Clarke made hs best hit. The Lou-e was a scene of the most Intense enjoyment. The cowardice, timidity, yet boastiulness displayed by Gos'tog, hit nervous bearing and desire to escape the ordeal of @ duel were portrayed in a style that ec uld not be surpassed. Gosling’s father arfives in time, discovers the Imposture, and everything ends happily. Although the piece abounds ih laughable sicuations, I1# entire execlience ts solely attributable to the artistic interpretation given to Young Gos- ling vy Mr. Clarke. There was a comicaliiy about bis expression and drollery and gesticulation that were irre- thie; and the audience, amused to an extreme de sree, gave full vent to their feelings, Mr. Clarke was well supported, and the prodtction was pre- sented by admirable surroondings, The two act comic drama entitied “Lost Ashore” followed, Mr. Clarke sustaining the part of Tom Tackle. In this, as in the other, opportmnities were frequently al- forded for the disp'ay of all those humorous touches pecuilariy characteristic of Mr. C.arke’s inished wetting. Mr, Theodore Hamilton, one of the most caretul, jar and talented artists of the company, made the most of Snakely Hynie, and the others were also eective, Altogether the entertdoment, from beginglug to end, afforded much gratification to the andience, while Mr. Clarke's ability received another substantial token of appreciation.

The plot is simple, indeed jast enough to form a sort of pee upon which to string a large nom- ber of comical situations and afford opportunities for some very Sue barlesque acting, The local alin- sions and puss are many and of @ class geverally superior to those Wsually found in plays of this kind, Mrs, Oates’ troupe is one of the finest order, °nd the pefiormance last evening surprise us T comms passed upon the ng of the memhec the company by the press of large cities throagh Which they have passed have beca in all cs complimentary—In some even extravagant.

THE MERCANTILE LIBRARY ELECTION, j The Roformiste Ratify Their Ticket and Ven. ate Their Opinions—Enthusiastic Talk and Other Things. ‘There was an exceedingly enthuslastic ratification meeting last evening of the friends of the tteket h-aded by Peter Voorhis, who intend to-day to give the old fogy candidates in the Mercantile Library As- sociation fight particular fits, as they can get votes enough to give them with, The meeting was held in the rear room of the second floor of No. 734 Broadway. A young gentleman of the reform ye. nomtiated Mr, Poter Vooriis as chairman of the meeting, who was duly eiesied, Mr, Voorhies returned thanks for the hon r con- ferred upon him, and after explaining that he Was @ better worker than speaker, tut oduced Mr. J. ©. Lm Page, who gave tho-e present an {dea of what a full page of Mercantile Library knowledge consists of. He male the wonderfully original state- ment that principles were things more to be regarded than moa, and added that the Voorh’s party were determited, if electea, to have the library open on Sunday and the annual <ines reduced to the oid standard.” The reform ticket. in his opinion, was a good one. The names 0° the candl- dates were /amiliar to the members, and the princt- pie they advocated were just and wordy of sup- port. Mr. James MCKENZIE charged that Mills, of tne other ticket, Was tne individual who had made the motion at a packed meeting to have the dues in- creased, and asserted that he had sent sixty member- ship tickets to H. B. Claflin’s clerks to be cast aga.nst the reform ticket. Mr. JULIUS HL. STRIEDINGER said the Mbrary was bedly managed. It had no stindard worss of science. The catalogue was a mixture gf editions from which nothing could be ascer.ained. A iricnd” ot his, he sald, went there one day and asked for & copy of “Vanity Fair,” and the clerk asked him if “that was a French work ?’—laugnter— and that ¢.erk Was “the stuptl boy who never: suds @ book for you When you Want one?” (Langiiter.) ‘The girl clerks couldn't read, ne belicved, eise they wouldn't mix the pepers up as they dtd. For ui- stance, in looking over the comle paper flies ove would find ‘a piece of Punch here and a piece ot Judy there,” and other papers shired the same fate. The board of directors could regulate all these thiogs; but they diin’t wait to take tue trouble, for ey are such “big fellows!” ".
