THE STATE CAPITAL. Shadows That Cast Their Shadows Before. Tho Season of Railroad Carpet Bags to be Inangurated at Once. - AWE ERIE AGAIN IN THE MESHES. THE NEW CAPITOL JOB. Besolutions of Inquiry as to Where All the Money Has Been Sunk, ALBANY, Jan. 18; 1971. It is a foregone conclusion that the representa- ‘tves of Kings county in the Assembly are des timed to Nave a good deal to say this year about &@ good many things which are to come up for legis- iative discussion and in which their bridge ad- ‘™miring constituents have a large interest; but ‘Bntu this morning, when Mr. Goodrich rose quietly from his seat and handed a dill to one of the pages tobe taken tothe Clerk’s desk and read, it was not Suspected that the Kings county honorables would ‘Bo outside of their own Jocal affairs to make A DECIDED SENBATION. ‘When the page handed the bill to the Clerk and he had begun to read the title the House was in consid- erable confusion, owing to the presence on the floor of a large number of persons who had no right to be there, but who thought they had, simply because ‘they were candidates for minor offices to be filled that very day by the Speaker. The hubbub was so great, in fact, that Mr. Hitchman had been obliged to exercise his gavel on his well-tried table almost in- cessantly from the moment that the venerable- Yooking little domme had, concinded his instruc- tions to the Detty as to what he should ao and not do for the gratification of the assembled law makers of the State. But the Clerk ig used to confusion and noise and interruption of ‘all kinds, grace to bis intimate acquaintance with the New York members, and once he had yelled out at the top of his voice the enactment clause of the bill, he went straight on as though he were the only person in the House. When he proceeded to the “second reading,’’ however, no objectionable mem- ber having objected to his going on as he pleased, the noise and confusion sud- Genly ceased, as if by the common consent of every one who hai been doing his utmost to make ‘the confasion more confounded, The cause of the “dead calm” was that tho Clerk had, in reading the bill, pronouneé the words “Erle Railroad’ so loudly that even the troublesome galleries had put an end 40 theirloud whisperings. “What did he say about the Erie Ratiroad?’ exclaimed one member to another so loutlly that the Clerk ceased reading and Went back tothe first line of the title of the bill again to oblige all hands, “I'd like to know wnat tirat’s about,” continued the te<uisitive member, gar rising from_ bis seat, just es if he had not been n taiking with Jay Gould in a dark corner of the Capitol a year,ago when that mysterious individual INVADED THE “THIRD HOUSE,” all safe against virtuous vituperation, thanks to a Well fed “black bag,” of which more than one As- sembdl roitably remembers, even to the pres- ent day, “1 want to know what1t all means,” per- Bisted the ingutsitive member, as he turned towards iis side partner and nu him under the seventh rib. Now, it fortunately happens that the Cler! sides betng a very obliging sort of a fellow, has a ‘very good hearing, and although he knew the words ‘Were Not addressed to him, knew a8 Well that they were addressed at him and at noone else. Sohe ‘waited patiently until silence reigned supreme, and then read, ina clear, rimging voice, the whole title of the bill The inquisiuve member, bad he Might have asked for its third reading, so t! everybody within ear shot might have iearned what its striking provisions were; but he contented him- self with a shrug of his shoulders and 8 savage “ugh,” as though, after all, he knew as much about it a8 most peopie, Which was quite sufficient, in his vind, for the purposes of the bill, Not so, however, with many other members. The republicans espe- cialy seemed more than usually interested as the word “Erte” fell on their ears, and as the Clerk taid it down on his desk more than one rose in is seat, With a sort of triumphant SMILE ON HIS FACE, to ask for the third reading, which—for the benefit of the uninitiated I will explain—means the read- ing of the bill from beginning to end. But a eignia- cant word from one of the rerai leaders, towhom the opposition look, afver a fashion, for guidance in the ‘Way they snould go in the House, made each one resume his piace without uttering a word. The Tact of the matter is that the pill wa’ nothing more oT less than a terrific broadside at the well being and welfare of the man of the Erje Ratiroad—a broadside which may resuit in their speedy downfall. It will be rememberea that on the 20th of May, 1863, the Erie Railroad got a bill pessed which provided that the board of directors could so classify their Members, “by lot or otherwise,” that, as nearly as could be, one-fifth of their number only should go out of oMce at each annual election. hen this was engineered through both houses the Erie jolks were mart enough to couple the Central Railroad with themeeives in its provisions, thus giving a sort of Panes: plenstbaliy to the aedge. But chickens come ome roost, they say; for by the way Goodrich as framed bis bill the Central is allowed to con- Unue the exercise of the one-fifth rule. while the Erie 3s compelled to drop 1%, ond hold an annual election, as of old, for all its directors. To add to the severity of the biow aimed at its net measure, the bil. provides that the next annual election for @irectors shall be held one year irem the time the Jast one-fiith folks were piaced triumphantly in tneir SEATS OF EMOLUMENT AND POWER. No wonder, then, that the reading of the bill caused a sensation, for there is more than one mem- ber who probably sees in It a chance to make a “ten strike” that will conduce very much to the present bulk of his meagre bank account, and many another Who believes that, if it becomes a law, a grievous wrong will have been righted im the face of outrageous bribery and corruption. How the bill will fare it 13, indeed, very hard to say, but that there will be a fierce ight over it when it comes from the Committee on Railroads is as certain as fate. Ido DOt kuow how ture it may be, put ] understand that the Central and other roads will do their best to beip us passage by every means in their power. If “tus be so the fight, in my opinion, judging {from “what 1 hear, will be a savage one, not so much “ because all members of the Legislature love justice 100 Well, but that they love goid more. Indeed, it is not likely that the right or wrong ofthe question 4&t issue will take the shape of a political question, BS Some sanguine admirers of Tammat! | and of ‘BilrTweed’s gd may imagine, for is at Jeast, one demi expressed hig deteraffuatfon ot to be fe nose if te er, oat lore, when the battle ‘begins tm true 106K Ou Jor’ a commotion. 4: none NEW CAPITOL; ine consttldlla, ‘or which is gettiig a severe overhauling, proceeded with on le ie tic it bas bee far, will be a ‘job’ fore which gyour Cot louse must pale its ineffectual he foundations are now completed, it is true, but’at it a cost!

THE RELIEF OF CHARITABLE INSTITUTIONS. The Comptroler, in response to a resolution of the Honse inguiring why certain charitable institu- tions had not received their share of last year’s ap- propriation, says:—The reason for such non-pay- ment is that there are no funds in the Treasury ap- licable to the purpose, These appropriations are ea upon the tax of 1870 now in process of collec- tion, no pec, of which gets into the Treasury be- fore April 1, 1871.

The car was smashed, but the passengers and horses escaped.

The Coming Testimonial to the Distin- guished Polyglot in Boston, The Seats Auctioned Off at Fabu- lous Prices. ANOTHER FECHTERIAN FAUX PAS, He Refuses to Act if Wallack is Allowed in the Theatre Boston, Jan. 18, 1871. Charles Fechter, the polygiotic actor, is again drifting carelessly around on the billowy surface of Dublic opinion, He had already kigkea up MORB FUSS than any member of the nustrionio profession of equal merit; but in his last effort he seems mow with Wallack and Chanfran is in the memory of all who have a weakness for funny ‘incidents of the history of the American stage, and ‘When the cireumstances afe recalled, as they have ‘appeared in the HERALD, it is not necessary to state Particularly why Mr. Fechter withdrew from the management of the Globe. When he withdrew, the idea of 4 BENEFIT TO THE EMINENT ARTIST ‘Was suggested. Such men as Longfellow, Holmes, James T. Fields, Agassiz, Clifford, Whipple, Forbes, Coolidge, Appleton, Dana and others of equal aristo- cratic renown were represented in the ‘‘corre- spondence” between themselves and the beneficiary as being anxious to testify their appreciation of Fechter’s ability. The irrepressible EBEN D. JORDAN, of the grand old Peace Jubilee fraud, was also among the admirers, and athough his name was not o leading one among the signatures to the correspondence he appears to have figured rather conspicuousty in the affair from the beginning. His first stroke was to BUY UP ALL THE PARQUET and most of the balcony—a manceuvre which the ether Beacon Hill,and classicsnobs could not good- Daturedly submitto. A row was the result, and some of the men of letters said very hard things about tne other men of letters, as well as about this Jord#h of no particular letters, except those re- quired to distinguish him from any other man. A trouple of this Kind, at the sober second thought, Was not just the thing for the distinguished gentle- men who nad gone so far in the toadying line towards the actor of many nationalities. The only way to get out of it seemed to be to let all the tick- ets ge at auction, and arrangements to dispose of them in this way were made accordingly, OLD MUSIC HALL, with the big organ in ful: view and with the crusty, crabbed and omnipresent Peck, were all engaged for the accommodation of the maltitade who were to “testify their appreciation,” and so forth, of Mr. Fechter. It would not be fairto say that the hall ‘Was not full, or that the crowd was not a represen- tative one of BOSTON SNOBOCRACY.' Probably there were two thousand present at the time Mr, Henshaw began the auctioneeriag On the platform was the LARGE-REARTED CHENEY, the proprietor of the theatre, and the Yankee Jor- dan, together with others of less renown. On the floor and in the galleries were scattered the man- agers, proprietors, actors and ballet girls of the other theatres, clergymen of the Back Bay and South End churches, and a literary crowd who swore to every- thing, from the New YorE HERALD away down to the AUantic Monthly. “When the hour for the sale commenced Mr. Hen- shaw, with 8 smile that was childlike and bland, came forward and spoke as follows:— MR, HENSHAW’S SPEECH. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN—The hour having arrived, &c., { will merely read you a note from the committee, that ali the seats in the house, unas the two boxes reserved by the proprietor for himself, will be sold to the highest bidders. The only Motive in disposing of the seats in this way was to give every applicant an opportunity to buy them. It was found that the demand was so great that the people at the box office could not buy seats m the usual manner, We will commence and sell you the seat the parquet first, We will sell you slip of two seats or the a es of cheice. Orders for the seats will be ready the sale in the office of the Music Hall, or here, All the seats not sold or not called for by twelve o’clock to-merrow will be sold at the box office. Seats will be soid at so much premium over the regular price. The sale then commenced, bias being offered for the first choice of seats in the parquet. The first bid was FIVE DOLLARS. ‘This was increased by half-dollar bids up to fifteen dollars, and then jumped to twenty dollars, whereat there was applause. They then advanced by one and {two dollar steps up to seventy-five dollars, at which three seats were taken in front at the left. The second choice sold for fourteen dollars, and subsequently for $10, $4, $0, $4, $5, $5, $8, $5 50, $6 50, $6 50, $7, $6 50, $6 50 and go on, the sales being $5 50, $6 or $6 50, 1n one or two cases falling to $14 40, until about sixty sales had been made, which exhausted the supply of seats in the parquet, The sale of parquet seats amounted in round nam- bers to about $1,200, Music Hall Peck made the SEVENTY-FIVE DOLLAR BID for the first choice of three seats; but it 19 generally understood that he acted as the representative of Mr. Jordan. The private noxes were then disposed of, the highest premium being twenty-five dollars, and tne balance bringing from ten to fifteen dollars, The balcony seats sold at an advance of from three to seven dollars, and the family circle, or “nigger heaven” chairs were left for the general multitude and will be offered at the box office to-morrow morning. When the sale had concluded there was a rumor circulated through the city that . er a . FECHTER AND CHENEY i bad quarrelled, and as the story went it seemed that the actor had allowed his enmity toward Wal- lack to overcome his judgment, and that the liberal Cheney was, as usual, the sufferer. A pretty good aecount of the affair is given by Mr. Ball, the ?ra- pores p cremate critic, in this evyening’s paper. It is eaded “AN UNMITIGATED OUTRAGE BY CHARLES FECHTER,” and reads as follows:— Some weeks ago we endeavored, until we could no — help it, to keep all reference to the quarreis at the Globe theatre out of the columns of Tra- veller, and when sent for by Mr. Fechter on the afternoon of the 14th of December last, and re- [Noga to publish his statement of the troubles in is paper, we begged him to keep out of print, on the ground that @ newspaper quarrel would only redound to his injury and standing in the com- ‘obstinacy en- , refused in to reason, and so went before the public, We had heped that, for his own sake, us Mr. poco, would od Kept pimseit ate bo 4 acting the part of a gentleman, w St Téagl have senna virtue which it would pear he is not really possessed of. the past week he has thrown u series of petty annoyances in the way of proprietor of the efforts toinaugarate the new management of Mon- evening ances culminated this morning ter, a8 We suppose, under bis.
