8 FINANCIAL, AND COMMERCIAL, ‘The Race Between Western Union Tele- graph and Pacific Mail. ‘SPEGQIE IN THE TREASURY. ‘SOUTHERN STATE BONDS. ‘Quotations of Stocks—Prices of Government Bends---The Bank Statement. SuNDAY, May 6, 1872, About: the only remarkatle feature in the stock market; last week was the vacillation and instabil- sity of some of the Icading shares, which were strong “by turns and ac often weak and wavering. There -meemed to be a contest between Western Union “Pelegraph and Pacific Matl, net only as to which should command the greatest attention in the mar- q t also as te which should get the mastery in price. Western Union started on Monday at 76%, which was fully twe percent ahead, but was nearly overhauied on Taesday, when Pacific Mall sold up ‘to 76%. On Wednesday the Telegraph was fairly gapped, and they both stood at 77. On Thursday ‘they were neck and neck at 7714, but on Friday Pacitic Mali, after getting an eighth in advance, ‘Bost wind and fell two and a half behind, The Tele- graph seemed to possess the most endurance, and When the week ended it was a full one and a half ahead, having soll at 77*;, while the Madi closed at 5M. SPPCIE IN THE TREASURY. ‘The United States Treasury is now in possession of about $130,000,000 in gold, of which amount $25,000,000 is due to paper which is known as gold certificates, and $40,000,000, less what has already been paid on interest due in May, for inter- est andcalied bonds. The other equal half of the gross sum is available for any purpose in which the Becretary of (he Treasury may choose to employ it, He wii probawly permit it to remain in the mouldy vaults of the Sub-Treasuries, using a small portion now and then, ostensibly to relieve the markets, or larger sums, as occasions require, to break the backs ofgold “corners,” until his peoding problem has been #olved and the bulk of the national debt has been placed upon a lower rate of interest basis. Then what? Perhaps a return to specie payments. But to produce a consummation so much desired the Secretary must first get the consent of the National banks. Such a desirable change in our financial affairs cannot even be broached to the | country without consulting these institutions. So adroltly have they interwoven their interests with those of the nation, and s0 tightly do they hold the money departments of our government in their grasp, that 4¢ would require a Secretary of the Treasury with more pluck in his composition than Mr. Boutwell can boast of to attempt to dissever the cord that now binds the department to those powerful and infuegtial corporations, It must be done, however, sooner or later, and we must await the coming man who will possess the courage, the @agacity and the financial knowledge to perform the service without convulsing the country, checking Sts prosperity and progress and clogging up all the avenues of trade. SOUTHERN STATE BOXDS. The bonds of the Southern States, never very active in this market, are gradually sinking in the scale of securities. This will continue to be the case until some different course of policy from that | now practised in the South ts inangurated. The financial status of nearly all of the Southern States | is far beléw that of their Northern and Northwest- | i ern sisters. Since the close of the war they have been drifting on from a bad to a worse condition, iintil they have actually reached a point which makes repudiation almost necessary, It is not yet too !ate, however, for them to recover their former | positions and save themselves from the disgrace | which attends and always follows a bankrupt gov- | ernment, Their political condition requires to be | revolutionized. They must choose lawmakers who are ready to go heart and sou) into the cause of retrenchment. They must elect legislators who are NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, MAY 6, 1872.-TRIPLE SHERT, previous prices, . The sales Lajas a de nau THE LONDON STAGE.

And as for GARRICK AND HIS CONFRERES if you would understand in what pitiful estimation they were held by multitudes of their contempo- raries you have but to read the truculent attacks of Sam Foote, Tate Wilkinson, Dr. Hill, Charles Mack- lin, Kenrick, Davies, Fitzmaurice, Williams, and a legion of others hardly less violent, to say nothing of the “‘snubs’’ of Johnson and the sneers of Horace Walpole. That Garrick was a man of magnificent genius, and, moreover, one of the sweetest, sound- | est, Most generous natures that ever existed, docs not now admit of doubt. Cleansing it from the as, persions of Murphy, Davies and a brood of slander- ers, Perey Fitzgcrald has done full justice to the memory of the best actor and the best man that ever adorned the British stage; but “Roscius’” re- nown among his contemporaries bore no proportion tinned moderately active, but scarcely aa firm, Thesales | to his merit.

It is amusing to remount the river of Time and observe how religiously this rule has been adhered to from the earliest era to our own. The most contemptuous critic of the drama to-day falls short of Ben Jonson’s utter con- demnation of the popular drama of his time—the Augustan age of the drama, as we now call it.

In this fashion, through several equally stedge- hammer-like stanzas, hardy Ben Jonson thu dered out his views on “the decline of the drama, and it seems likely enough that critics, great and amall, will go on at the same pace till the last syl- lable of recorded time. It is a sad delusion; but it + | is to be feared that there is no help for it. Holding these opinions there is little chance, f should hope, of my being suspected of favoring an old and ri jous superstition if! venture to express be), entitled “The Last of the Barons.” It isa ‘deg-y,”” dazzling, many-colored affair, richly clad, nimbly danced, and set off with every external at- traction of sumptuous, costume and picturesque scenery. But it is nonsense none the less. I hate these burlesques, They burlesque nothing on earth except themselves, and are, in fact, a description of dvamatie entertainment whose sole aim and pur- pose would seem to be to turn the drama into ridi- cule, One can understand such a burlesque as the sham ogray in the “Critic,” whose object was to turn plays of the blood-and-thunder class into ridi- cule; bat your modern burlesque derides upon the Manner of stage rformances. theugh a@ fellow should make wry at himself in a glass, The true object of the draina is, a8 we are assured by Shaks- peare himself, “to hold the mirror up to ature,” hot to torn Nature inaide ont and upside down, per- verting, distorting and misrepresenting her w) all occasions, as is ‘the habit in burlesque. The new piece, however, is sumptuous in adornment, and, as it is briskly acted by Miss Amy Sheridan, Miss Emma Ch: ra, Mr. K. Terry, Mr. Atkins and the other members of the Swanborough com- pany, it will probably go down Mke jelly with the Strand audience, whe love tobe fooled to the top ot their bent. AN ENGLISH OPERA. At the Gaiety Theatre a new comic opera, en- titled “The Miller of Millaberg,” the music of which has been composed by Herr ‘Meyer Lutz, the con- ductor of the orchestra at that house, has been pro- duced with unequivocal success, The merits of Herr Lutz as an original composer are already well known, since he has written excellent works ina variety of styles forthe stage, the concert room and the church, and many of his composi- tions reach a very high standard of cxcellence. Such, indeed, ia his versatility that he can with ual facility’ write a solemn mass for the Catholic Church or a melody for the Christy Minstrels. Some of his alrs composed for the Merry Minstrels of St. James’ Hall are exceedingly popular. ‘The story she ere oe pid opera is of pe slightest construction, simply narrating action the love story of a certain nok miller, who marries an orphan girl whom he had befriended, and showing how the miller’s married life is ludi- crously disturbed by certain jealous suspicions, which lead to a series of absurd misadventures, happily, however, culminating in the conviction that his fears are but visionary and that he is in secure pos- session of his wife’s affections. Bright, tuneful and animated, Herr Lutz has proved in this little work that he possesses the trne vein for comic opera. ‘There is enough sentiment to give character and contrast to the whole, while the humorous element in the music has just the sparkle, finish and delicacy that are required for the purpose. Mr. Toole appears as Raymond, the miller, and Mise Constance eby as his wife, Agnes. AN UNSUCCESSFUL RUN. Plays have sometimes great “rans,” and go, too, have players. Early oa Wednesday morning Mr. Ed- ward Terry, of the Strand Theatre, undertook torun from the 81 door of the Strand Theatre to the stage door of the Victoria Theatre, exactly a mile, in tive minutes, the backers of time luying £50 to £25. The event caused great interest at both theatres and in the neighborhood. The result, however, was in favor of time, the swiftest of all adversaries, as we all of us know to our cost. Mr, ‘Terry lost his wager by a minute and a half, but it must be admitt that he made capital running. A mile in ¥ix minutes and a half is famous speed for a pedestrian. I remember to have run a mile in six minutes on two occasions of my life, once when pursued by a mad bull and again when pursued by @ baliff; but Mr. Terry had no such motives to speed, and, therefore, deserves far higher credit. Grimaldi, the clown, uscd to boast that he could run from Sadiers’ Wells to Drury Lane in ten minutes; but I can’t help thinking that this assertion was a@ sanguinary deviation from the straight line of veracity, Nobody except a redskin (and redskins are nobodies) is ever likely to run quicker than Mr. Terry, unless, indeed, under the a posteriort pressure of a bull or a bailiff AN UNCOMPROMISING CRITIC. The same malcontent critic who was at logger- heads first with Mr. Vining and then with Mr. Al- berry, author of “Forgiven,” has now fallen foul of Mr. Charles Reade, whose new play of “Shilly Shally,”’ in course of fd ar teterbieved at the Gaiety Theatre, he attacked with characteristic acerbity. ‘This formidable critic, who appears to have taken for his model the French cynic, of whom it was written, “Quel grand homme! en ne peut lui platre,” brought no fewer than nine charges against Mr. Reade, who disposes of them in the following summary fashion :— “I declare, on the reputation of a critic, the honor of a gentleman and the word of a Christian, that every one of those nine statements is another falsehood. The first five are little more than the blun- ders of a fool; but the last four are the falsehoods of a slanderer Who dare not say these things of me, except under the disguise of the anonymous, but under that shelter has misled his employer and the public, and done his best to cover my declining days with dishonor.” Mr. Reade goes on to say that “the libel” of which he complains “betray a play- wright writhing with envy and malice at the intru- sion of his intellectual superiors into his narrow market;” but there Mr. Reade is mistaken, his bilious judge being no playwright, but a journalist who has yet to learn that talent ‘and modesty are natural allies, and that the truly gifted are for the most part generously appreciative of others, THE TICHBORNE PLAY, “Just like Roger,” a slang phrase to which the Tichborne trial has given rise, serves for the title of an amusing little farce by Mr. B. Webster, Jr., which has been brought out at the Adelphi Theatre, ‘The central notion is not bad. A country lawyer, who may be said to have got Tichborne on the brain, brings himself at last to distrust everybody an to believe that everybody is sailing under false colors. selects as the special object of his in- sane suspicions an inoffensive young man, who is the heir to a handsome fortune, and is, moreover, on the point of being married. ‘fo the ‘utter amaze- ment of all concerned the lawyer calls rudely in question the personal identity of this youth, and seeks to make out that he is passing himself off for a totally different man—an idea which drives not only the individual in question but also his sweet- heart and all his friends to the Se of madness, All manner of blunders and recriminations ensue, and a little comedy of errors is eoet up very briskly for an hour or 80, When the mistakes are cleared up all ends happily. hukespeare’s play of “Cymbeline’ has had a short but not particularly merry life at the Queen's ‘Theatre, whence it will withdrawn to-night in favor of Mr. Sheridan Knowles’ once celebrated but now well nigh forgotten drama of “Virginius.” The latter piece, however, is only StOD-8AD to fill up the interval Natal {he production of Mr, R, Lee's new play of “Ordeal by Touch.” Considerable misapprehension appearing to pre- vail concerning the Kind of entertainment proposed by Mr. Boucicault to form the attraction at Covent Garden during the autumn dramatic season, it is authoritatively announced that the novelty will be an original fairy spectacular drama, in four acts, written conjointly by Mr. J. R. Planché and Mr. Dion Boucicault, and entirely distinct from what is ordinarily understood as extravaganza. The scenery will be elaborate, the embellishments of music and arches be largely employed, and the costumes will be of an unusual, and fanci- ful description. The dialogue will in prose, ex- cept in those scenes illustrative of supernatural ney. “a nor Ardittiand Madame Patti will return to London from Vienna on the 1st of May. i Mr. Creswick, paring cetnrnes from the United States, is to appear as Hamlet at the Surry Theatre to-night.
