ENGLISH BALLAD CONCERTS.—Dolby’s admirable corps of artists will be heard for the frst time in this country on Monday, October 9, at Steinway Hall, ‘The names are: —Mias Edith Wynne, soprano; Mme.Patey, contralto; W. H. Cummings, tenor; J. G. Patey, bass; Lindsay Sloper, ptanist, and the great- est baritone of the modern stage, (with, perhaps, | the sole exception of Faure), Charles Santley. The fotlowing sketch of this renowned artist will be found interesting at the present time:—He was born in Liverpool, England, tn 1834, being the son of the well-known profeasor in music and organist of that town; received his first instruction from his father, and displayed an early love of music, being a good performer on the violin and playing in several of the local orchestras. He went to Milan in 1855 and re- mained there two years, studying under the eminent Maestro Gaetano Nava. He sang curing the carni- valtn 1867 in Pavia with much success, and re- vurned to England in the latter part of 1857, and made his first appearance at St. ‘tin’s Hall, Lon- don, in the “Creation,” under the direc tion, of Mr. John Hultal He was afterwards engaged, in 1859, by the Pyne and Harrison English ra, appearing first in ‘‘Dinorah;” after- wards tn the “Puritan’s pte aged and the “Ltiy of Killarney,” and in various other prominent operas. He was engaged in 1862 for the [tatian opera at Her Majesty’s oer and sang during severa! seasons, up to the ume of the destruction of the theatre by fire (singing the last notes as it were in the thea- tre, in the character of Don Giovanni, Miss Kel- logg, our American prima dovna, playing the part of Zerlina.! From 1868 down to the present time Mr, Santiey has taken the principal rdles in opera, alternating at Covent Garden and Drary Lane. Rec*ntly he played a successful season of English opera at the Gaiety in ‘‘Zampa,” “Fra Di- avolo,” aud in Lortzing’s “Czar and Zimmermann.” Mr. Santiey is thoroughly up in the school of ota- torio, in which he has sung repeatedly in London and the various great provincial festivals. His Eh- jan ts, perhaps, the grandest interpretation of the character known in modern times. Tne programmes | of the first four concerts comprise some ot the best works in the ballad, glee and madrigal line, and, interpreted by sucn admirable artists, there is no question as to the success of the undertaking. Mrs. MOULTON Wjll appear before an American audience at Steinway Hall on Monday, October 16.

This old and time-honored auctioneer, whose mother wit and musical voice for the last forty years has cheered admiring audiences, died yester- day at the ripe age of seventy.six, at the residence of his son-in-law, Samuel Brevoort, 42 Butler street, Brooklyn. He emigrated from Dublin at sixteen years of age, and commenced his career as an auc- Utloneer, im which profession he had but few equals, and no superior, and was often called the Robins of Amenica.

Loss Nearly a Million of Dollars—Four Men Sup- pesed to Have Been Burned to Death. CrIcaao, Sept. 30, 1871. A terribly destructive fire broke out this afternoon in an immense brick building between tne Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Ratlroad track and Sixteenth street, known as the Burlington Warehouse, one pari of which was used for the storage of merchandise and the other part as a government bonded warehouse. 1n the first department there were goods belonging to NEARLY TWO HUNDRED FIRMS, and valued at $800,000, which are all destroyed; while in the bonded warehouse there were dry goods worth $3,000,000, all of which escaped injury by reason of the thick fire wall. On the goods destroyed there ts an aggregate of insurance of $700,000, Itis impossible at this hour to obtain the names of the merchants who are sul- ferers or of the insurance companies that are like- wise victims. The fire was first discovered in a large lot of broom corn in the central portion of the building belonging to Allerton & Bird. The FIRE EXTINGUISHERS ‘were immediately brought to bear upon tt, but failed to arrest the progress of the fire, and vefore the arrival of the steamers the flames burst out with terrible fury in every direction. The building was owned by S. M. Nickerson, President of the First National Bank. His loss is $50,000; covered by insurance. Charlies Stearns, truck driver for Austin & Boal, is known to have been BURNED TO DEATH. It is feared that three other men have also perished in the flames, as they were seen in the Midst of the fire where escape seemed impossivie, Several firemen were also more or less injured. The origin of vhe fire has not been ascertained, That portion of tne building known as Burlington Hall escaped destruction. ‘The following are among the losses by the fire to- day:—Wiliam HM.

WALLACK’3—THE RIVALS.—Sheridan’s fine come- dy was given at this theatre last night to a crowded house. This piece is so well known to the public Uhat there ts no necessity to dilate on the plot or its treatment. it pictures English society in its bobwig era by @ number of highly colored tndividualiza- tions, bearing, even in their points of exaggera- tion, the refining touch of the master band. Tne full-biooded, good-hearted, choieric sir Anthony Absolute was rendered with a glorious vim by Mr. John Gilbert, deserving Commendation for its true balance between the testy father and the rollicking man of the world grown old in body but not in spirits. The same account cannot by any means be rendered of Mr. J. B, Polk's playmg of the son, Captain Absolute. The character as | drawa by tie author is that of @ tho. rough gentleman and a soldier, dashing, full of the fire and fun of youth, but preserving through- oul the dignity of deportment which 1s luseparable from a Weil-bred man ab any thuae, particularly of the period from which the action 1s drawn, Mr. Poik has utterly failed in achieving this. He makes | Captain Absolute a thing of sniggering grimace and boyish skipping, Which brings it down to the level of low comedy, and, in a series of ill-chosen peais to the gallery, displays iis cempicie onveption of the vole.

The circumstances of his death are of a very sad nature, yet bis relatives and friends will have the conscious- ness that he died at is post and gave up his life while trying to save another from the sgme fate that befei him. No brighter or more glortous record could be made by any man. ‘The manner in which he jost his life was as fol* lows:—About five o'clock P.

Further Particulars of Charles Vezin’s Affairs. How He Employed Moneys of Important Trusts— Over a Hundred Thousand Dollars Taken from His Own Family—A Great Mercantile Sensation. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 39, 1871, In my despatch last night [ gave a confirmation of the failure of Charles Vezin & Co., of 248 Chestnut street, and related his mysterlous absence from the city. To-day I have learned from an authentic | Workin: source that the case is much worse than at first imagined, and that one of the greatest sufferers will be his own brother, Mr. Alfred Vezin, or the firm of Hali & Vezin. The trust which has been impaired to the greatest extent is that of the estate of two daughters of an ola and highly respectable mercantile gentleman named Bohl Bohlen, who diea in 1836 worth up- wards of $1,250,000, These two daughters married two brothers of a German family named Halbach, and both became widows afer « few years, When they returned to this city Mr. John Boh- len, of the present firm of Bohlen & Co, of 251 South Fourth street, advised them a8 a brother to name two trustees for their united estate, which amounted to about $250,000, so that their money might be properly put out ana the in- vestments attended to in a legal manner. Mr. George K. Ziegler, a partner of John Bohlen, was | named as one trustee, and R. C. MeMurtrie, a promt- | nent attorney, as the other, As, however, Mr, Ziegler was in fact trustee of the whole of old Boh- len’s estate—this being the only portion over which he had not absolute control—and as Charles Vezin had been previously named as the gentleman whose position and influence rendered him a fitting candidate, he was permitted to take charge of the property in conjunction with the other gentleman named. A considerable portion of the estate was in coupon bonds for various local loans and securities, over all of which ne, in com- mon with his copartner in the trusi, had command, The allegations are that this trust has not been impairea by him to a greater amount than $70,000; Dut how did he get at the securities ? 1s the natural question. According to my iniormant—and he iy 1 @ position to know exactly—a portion of the securities of the Halbach estate were for- merly in the name of Charles Vezin, Sr., and a Mr. Magedorn, and tnat by a transfer obtuined from the Court Charies Vezin, Jr., could legally, and with or Without the consent of nis copartner, convert the securities into a better class of property in lisown name. Some such arrangement appeared to have been agreed upon between the two gentiemen, tor there been the disposition of some $30,000. McMurtrie, tt Is alleged, desired to know how Mr. Vezin had invested this money, and the latter said he had invested tt in Pennsylvania bonds. McMurtrie desired to hay: ocular demonstration and asked to see them. Ve zin then said he was not quite certain that the bonds he had purchased were exactly what he sell them again and sustain whatever lo.s there might be on the transaction, 80 as to gevat the right kmd of eet for the trust. He asked MeMartrie to call aguin, and sent and obtained some bonds, which his partner saw. Afterward, how- ever, Was stated that the bonds were only bor- rowed by him forthe occasion, the property not be- longing to him, * ‘The trust of his father for his brothers and sisters, 1am informed, has been already entirely ruined, It appears that in addition to this his brother Alfred has been tn the habit of “accommodating” him tor a long ume past by acceptances on alieged collaterai security—that 18, the importing or con- signments of “white goods” from Bremen, &c., and handed him at one time some signed blank paper, leaving him to fill up the amount when- ever he found any one to take the paper up. This is by no means an uncommon practice among merchants at certain seasons, anid in this case it seems to be a perfectly natural case that Alfred, who looked upon his brother almost as @ lather trom the fact of his betng the eldest of the family, with a high social and commeretal status, should grant auy such favor to Charles Vezin, who to hun was the very ‘soul of honor.” But it turns out that he only reported to Alired that he had $15,000 worth of such paper out, whereas now on inquiry nearly $40,000 worth of notes have been dis- covered to beatioat, ‘The second part of* the affair with his brother is with reference to a mortgage on some property. 7 ments, were aischarged with the thanks of the Court, Among “Me indictments presented was one against Dr, J. b,'¥!% Of No. 629 Atlantic avenue, pear reene ve.

He was charged with embez- zling $291,046 91, belonging to the state of Pennsyl- vania. The prisoner, who is a well preserved man of about sixty years of age, gave no gleam of peculating proclivities in his countenance, and, what is more, looked the least concerned of the large number present tn court. Mr. John H. Strahan took up the cudgels of defence for him, He went into an elaborate HISTORY OF THE CASE. ‘This history showed that on the 2d of March, 1867, Mr. Evans, pursuant to a resolution of the Pennsyl- vania Legistature, was appointed vy Governor Geary a special agent to collect the divailowed and suspended claims of the State against the United States, such claims being in reference to disburse- ments made by the State daring the rebeliton, but disallowed by the general government, Mr. Evans went to work as such agent He found at the date of his appointment, $2,118,419 13 claims against the United States, which, with subsequent claims, amounted,to the sam total Of $3,272,218 19 Of this amount he collected, as alleged, $2,910,469 11, — and retained for his services ten per cent commission, being A.
