4s just about to send his eldest son, whom he openly styles ‘the Crown Prince”—Tevik Effendi—on a tour to all the European courts, that of the Czar included, with a select and prilliant suite. The object of this round visit is plain enough, and will not be with- out its effect, since the Viceroy is one of the richest men in -the world, and will cover his heir-apparent with jewels *”* gold. A young, well-favored 0" a inn? Seams saua of the Pharaohs and o isdpaten, gutiering with gems and lisping with rich Babylonisn accents tue languages of the North, will make a Bia, ctous flutter ‘among the beautiful, s»ettible and o Urtly ames and deweri., of the Evropean capi- tals. Itt) be Prince Djalma nisgnified a Bidred times, and the offect 1» pot difficult to * foretell. France, we know, must necessarily favor the Khedive. The Suez Canal is a French: institution. Britain is less well inclined in that direction; but Britain can neither afford to quarrel openly with France nor yet to afford Russia any good pretext or opportunity for marching on Stamboul. Thus, the most pro- bable result wilt be a joint recommendation bythe great Western Powers to the Porte that the Viceroy of Egypt shall be ‘‘let alone,” and ultimately, of course, the independence of that Prince. But should the Grand Turk, in spite of the recent incendiary conflagration of his capital, stand upon his dignity, we may prepare to witness a magnificent pageant of semi-bar- baric warfare which will again bring the hordes of the Orient to the horizon of the ‘West, and revive the long dormant echoes of the Crusades. A Republican View, of Democratic Preste dential Aspirants. The Albany Journal kindly furnishes the @emocracy with a list of their entries for thé Presidential stakes of 1872. It oracularly de- clares that Judge Chase stands ‘‘head and shoulders above all his fellows”—in stature, un- doubtedly ; that Groesbeck, of Ohio—brother- in-law of General Joe Hooker—‘‘has the advan- tage of thoroughpaced democracy, first class mediocrity and Polk-like obscurity;” that Hendricks, of Indiana, ‘‘is stronger in ambition than in friends ;” that Hancock “‘travels on his muscle ;” and, finally, that Governor Hoff- man has the lead just now, but that “this very fact will prevent him from winning.” Perhaps not. Much will depend upon the ma- jority he piles up next fall as a candidate for re-election to his present position, Great issues may arise and new men may spring up with them, between this time and the assem- bling of the National Convention, that will seatier all present speculations to the winds and invest the contest with entirely new and unexpected features. In the meantime the democracy are not likely to adopt the advice of one of their Southern newspaper advocates and fight over again the battle for princlples Row obsolete and entirely inapplicable to the Present progressive age. To succeed they must keep pace with the grand forward move- ments of the times, and, if necessary, be a little ahead of them. Why a State Auditor ts in Prison. The State Auditor of Alabama, R. M. Rey- nolds, is still in a jail in Alabama, under an order issued by Judge Busteed for contempt of court. The alléged contempt grows out of the refusal of the Auditor to obey an injunc- tion issued by Judgé Busteed, at the instance of the Southern Express Company against the Auditor, restraining him from collecting a tax levied by the laws of Alabama upon the gross receipts earned by the express company in pursuing their business as common carriers. Here comes the tug, and the motive of action, proand con, as the Alabama papers present it. Itisaverred that Busteed and the Gov- ernor of Alabama (Smith) are rival candidates for the United States Senate in place of War- ner, whose term expires in 1871, and that they are both endeavoring to make capital out of this oxpress company tax. Meanwhile.the ehief sufferer is poor Reynolds. Judge Bus- teed isan active and energetic official. His enemies, no matter what his shortcomings may be, sometimes crowd him a little too hard ; but the time has yet to arrive when ‘Dick Bus- teed,” a3 he is familiarly known in this city, will give way before any pressure, when he believes that his personal interests and the public good tend in a certain direction. The Montgomery Mail regards,ihe action of {udge Busteed as the ‘‘new rebellion in Alabama.” Take care it does not have the same result as the old one, Dick is a brick. Nor Baoxep By His Frienps.—Whitte- more, the cadet-seller, who has just been re- elected to Congress by an exclusively nigger vote, is not backed by his old friends. The Syracuse Journal (radical) follows the lead of the radical Philadelphia Press in opposing his readmission to Congress. The former seems to think that he is better entitled toa cell in a Penitentiary than to a seat in Con- gress. Which would be the most humiliating were Whittemore an honorable man?

The furniture of the office is solid black walnut, that of the captain’s room walnut and cherry panelling. The front doors and windows are supplied with costly cut glass. The upper floors are finished in walnut, oak and cherry imitation. The opening wasa great success. A large number of visitors, including many beautiful dadies were present; and between eating, dancing and gos- sipmg a highly agreeadle evening was passed, There was no wine supplied fortunately, and conse- quently the disgraceful orgies that character- ized recent station house openings did not forma feature of the evening. It is said that an excellent feast was spread, but as the members of the command, who foot the biils and have the best right to its consumption, did it justice, many were debarred the privilege of testing its merits. Never- theless nearly all seemed well pleased with the pro- ceedings throughout. Mills, Sergeant Scnofield and Beachey and Roundsmen Hubbard, Oddington and Fountain paid especial attention to guests. MAD DOGS, PICHICS AND ASSAULTS IN HOBOKEN, A large number of canines are at large in Hobo- ken, and the Common Council has taken no action yet against them.

At Boston there was per- fection itselff but it must be borne in mind that the timo for preparation was long, and the most ample opportunity was afforded for tho minutest details of the jubiice Altogether the Beethoven festival was a splendid success, and clearly proved that musical triumphs in this city are uot by any means impossibilities, And what a noble subject was the grand basis of the undertaking! How many composers of memorable works pale before the glorious name of Beethoven! Admittedly the greate:t that the present cen- tury has produced, his memory will live in whatever part of the globe true music is apprecl- ated, One hundred years ago he first saw the light. As most people are aware, Louis Von Beetho- ven was born in the pretty little town of Boyn, on the Rhine, His career was wonderful, and fully {llustrated that his gifts were as natural as those of Shakspeare in their way. Hadyn was, perhaps, the man that first understood his mighty genius, having, in 1785, been shown ® cantata of Beethoven's composition with which he is said to have been enchanted. In 1792 Beethoven left Bonn and proceeded to Vienna, Where he studied under Haydn. it is unnecessary to follow his magnificent career, His works will notoniy be admired to the end of time, but willeven be regarded as the great standard towards which the present generation looks with awe for the sub- ltmity which characterizes them all, Beethoven dicd on the 25th of March, 1827. THE APPEARANCE OF THE COLISEUM was very impressi nd looked to the best advan. tage. The lights burned brightly, and towards eight o'clock the crowds began to fill the building With great rapidity. Gradually the diferent socle- ties took thetr respective places on the stage, and in a short space of time there was not a vacant seat on either side of the massive organ, And now the interior of the Coliseum presented a scene to be remembered, brilliant and Imposing as it was. As the conductor appeared a long continued round of approbation arose from all sides. A general feei- ing of anxiety prevatied. It was known that every- thing had been hurridly organized, and few antici- pated the triumph that was at hand. The baton fell and a burst of harmony resounded through the building like the thundering roar of the tide washing high upon the beach, Soon the audience felt the thrill, and when the pro- gramme was talrly under way gratification was unl- versally apparent. By the request of the several conductors the decorations throughout the entire building were very limited, owing ‘to thelr interference with the harmony, but those alsplayed were unostentatious and appropriate, For the short space allowed for the completion of the details in connection with the in- terior of the Coliseum the managers deserve much SRE He B neh aA” ue VARs OLY DR ES BUR over thirteen thousand persous were comfortably seated. THR STAGR was crowded tothe walls, In the centre was the organ, and on either side and extending to the ex- treme end of the stage were the different societies, The orchestra was composed as follows:—First violins, fiity-atx; second violins, fifty-six; violas, thirty; ceili, forty; bassi, forty; flauti, twelve; obol, twelve; clarionetil, twelve; fagottl, eight; horns, sixteen; trumpets, six; trombones, cigh- teen; saxtuba, six; kettle drums, four, making altogether about three hundred and twenty- five performers. The grand chorus was com- posed of about two thousand five hundred per- sons, The balcony over the main entrance was par- ticularly crowded, but the acoustic properties of the building generally were excellent.

Conductor, Dr. James Pech Carl Bergmann was the conductor,of the symphony and proved himself incapable of grasping larger masses than the one hundred instruments of the Philbarmonic Society. Twice that number were under his baton last night in Beethoven's charming work, but the eifect was incom- mensurate with the material used. Passing over the first movement, which had _— suilicient allegro avout it, but very littie brio, we come to the delicious andante. What a querulous, complaining theme 18 chosen in this movement! There is noth- ing positive about it except its impatient utterances, Jt is semi fempo di marcia, buta capricious spirit ever and anon leads the mind away to alternate complaints, threats, entreaties and tears, which crowd on the ear of the listener like importunate cries of obstinate petitioners, The wonderful pianissimo passages, in which the suppressed murmur of strings, reeds and brassese expresses & sort of wres- ting im the spirit or an undertone argument which restits in a unanimous outburst which makes the very soul swell with gladness and trium| were completely inaudible to three-fourths of the audi- ence. The .solo parts should have been tre- bied or quadrupled, and then every one wouid have had a chance of hearing and appreciauing them. The Jinale of this andante movement ex- hibits that grand characteristic of Beethoven. No matter bow far his fancy may lead him into the re- | gions of Fairyiand, he never forgets where his start- ing point has been and he invariably returns to it. How those wonderful double bass passages tell in the commencement of the third movement! But last night they were utterly indistinct. Mr. ecg erred forgot the imporiant part they play in this move- ment, They annonnce the theme with as much dig- nity and emphasis as ever did preacher his text. The finale simplicity and grandeur itself, the arch theme dropping now and then into unex- pected littie episodes, Which are, however, never obtrusive. Here the acme of counterpoint is reached in which the one simple subject 1s colored, as if we gazed at it through a kalekloscope. We hear the ciosing chords, a8 it wore, of the movement, but suddenly an aboe, clarionet, bassoon or violin, like, a musical Jack o’ Lantern, leads us off into some delicious scene, where we are fanned by @ string tremolo, breathed soltiy Hor by a horn zephyr, or stirred to our inmost soul by a struggle in the basses, We biame the conductor particularly for the ex- treme weakneas of the string s¢accati in this move- ment. The Jast part is full of earnest joy and child- like Vivacity, but the nuances, which entrance every TUBILEB. | musician, never reached us in the auditorium. Next came that sublime work, the “INFLAMMATUS”’ (STABAT MATER), Ripe gee Mauaic that ever Rossini wrote.

The people of Queens county, in the neighborhood of Jamaica and Flushing, were on the qut vive all day yesterday and Sunday about a mysterious litle stranger, Who as mysteriously appeared in Queens county, with quite a shade of romance thrown about it. On Saturday night, between tne hours of ten aud twelve P. M., a stranger drove tnto Fiushing with @ basket, of which he took particular care. While he was feeding the horse py the roadside and loitering, the horse started nd ran. Aman named John Hunt found the bun- die about midnight on the Black Stump road, and in it, neatly wrapped up, Was a baby abont a week old, Joho was afraid to take the child, as he was tearful SUSHAS RR REP AAS VARIAN ge OH and together they went after the child. On the bas- Ket was found a letter directed to “J, Hicks, Queens county. L, I." In ihe morning Hicks appeared. He lives in Ros- bs aud 18 a well-to-do Quaker, Mr. Hicks claimed the child, but said he was not the father. It seems that the man who brought the child, as soon as the horae ran away, immediately notified Mr. Hicks, who started to tind the waif. About ten o'clock on Sunday the man returned for his team, but would make no explanation, except that the circumstances of the case were curious, vat he dare not divulge them, The people of the vicinity are “greatly excited” about the case, Lhe contents of the letter were a strange medley, concluding by saying that the mother was dead. ‘The Cletles of the infant were of fine texture and make. AN ENGLISH VALET'S ADVENTURES, He Becom s Steward of a College, Is Trapped by a Noted Courtesan, Falls Into Evil Ways and is Generously Helped Back to Honest Lite Again by His College Friends. {From the Detroit Free Preas, June 11.) £ome few years ago“an English lord paid a visit to ihis country, bringing with him as valet a fine young /ellow named Harry Carpenter. After travel- ling about for a year, and when his master was ready to return to England, Carpenter concluded to remain in this country a while longer, and lord and valet separated at Niagara Falls. After visiting the place for a few days Carpenter started to come West, but fell in with the principal of Deveaux College, located at the Falls, and the principal offered him the situation of steward at the college. For more than two years, or up to a month ago, Carpenter held bis place, being ever found trustworthy and reliable and gaining the good will of every one with whoin he came in contact. Then, suddenly, almost in @ single day, bis whole nature changed. He towk to drking, neglected his business, was intoxicated day after day, and the whole faculty were bewildered athiscourse. When, afterward, the cause leaked out, 1t Was found that Woman was at the foundation of it all, Anote! bad woman had woven her toils about the victim, and in less than two weeks she had “bied’? him of several hundred dollars, made him a drunk- ard and gambler, and caused him to lose the place he had honorably filled for so long a time. With one bad deed came others, and Carpenter turned out a swindler, He procured a sutt of clothing of one merchant, swindled another out of forty dollars, borrowed a gold watch of a student, and thea fed, arriving in Detroit yesterday morning. When his operations became known, the Chief of Pulice of Butlalo was telegraphed to, and he took up the trail, reaching here svon after Carpeuter did, the latter having taken passage on a propeller. The Chief had no papers to arrest his man. Contrarily, he brought money contributed by che faculty to. tay, Carpenter's expenses to any poins in the far West he might choose to go to, and a letter, which spoke of how pained they were at his ruin, aud how much better if he had kept in view that old vut golden injunction: “Honesty 18 the best policy.” He was warned not to come back, aud a promise was made to leave him unpunisued providing he revurned the watch and clotiing. He was found while standing on the steps of the Russell House, about noon, and, when be learned that he need not fear arrest, cheerfully turned over the things, acceptea fifteen dollars of the money, and last night he departed for Chicago.
