AN AUTHENTIC VIEW OF ARKANSAS AFFAIRS— PEACE AND GOOD ORDER REIGNING—THE PEOPLE ANXIOUSLY AWAITING A SETTLEMENT. Mr. Lougoborough, member of the Arkansas Senate and chairman of its Finance Committee, | has just arrived bere from Little Rock and gives some late information, He says that the Legia- lature prolonged its cession not for partisan pur- poses, but because it has been necessary to take measures to re-establish the finances of the State, which have been thrown into most serious dis- order during the past six years; that the act | to feguiate labor and the vagrant act were killed by democratic votes; that no arrests onjn- dictments for merely political offences have béen made; that the State ts peaceful and collisions between whites and blacks a: or Obio, which 18 fully confrmed by Judge Poland and Mr. Scudder, republican members of the Ar- kansas Committee; that the militia laws have not been changed, but are those enacted under the constitution of 1868, which sre similar to those in Northern States, and that Governor Garland, in reorganizing the militia; is making an enroliment under this iaw; that there are noarms in tne State for the militia; that there are more colored men in ofMce at present, under the Garland govern- ment, that ever held place under previous admin- istrations, and that every right of the colored man 18 respected; that the suspension of the free schools was caused by the malappropriation of school funds under the old government, which anticipated the revenues of the State by issuing treasury certificates which were made receivable in payment of taxes levied for the support of scnools, which certificates were issue in such quantities that they are depreciated to thirty | cents on a dollar; but that under the new present constitution ample school funds wtil soon be pro- vided, A poll tax of $1 ts devoted to free schools | alike for both races, and a bill now before the Legislature, and which wiil pa: two mills on the dollar additiona: on all property in the State for the support of tree schools of Whites ana blacks alike, andin addition author- izes citizens in any school district by @ majority vote to lay an tax of (wo mills on all the property tn the district for the same purpose. A majority of electors, though they be not property owners, are able to lay this special tax. Tnat there is no White League organization in the State; that the people are very poor, and all business and industry | awaits the settlement of political affairs; the part of the people of Ar- nd the Finance Committee of the Legis- lature, be implores the people of the North and Congress to relieve them irom their suspense. He adds that the lust election was Jree and fair, and that in all the counties where the radicals had a majority they elected their county ticket, and their men are now, black as well as white, peaceably seated in the Legislature, He intends, if possible, to see the President to-morrow and lay these and other matters before him, fortfying his statement by authenticated documents. THE HABEAS COBPUS MONSTROSITY LOSING FRIENDS. Many of the friends of the Habeas Corpus bill, in the caucus, are getting ashamed of it. They do not ike the looks of it by daylignt. It would not get nearly so strong @ support to-morrow as it promised to have on Monday. PROBABILITY OF PINCHBACK’S ADMISSION IN THE SENATE—SENATOR FERRY’S EFFORT. The Pinchback case came up in the Senate, and this time in earnest, the administration men secur- ing a@nightsession. Senator Ferry, of Connecticut, Tepublican, made an able and eloquent speecn of half an hour im opposition to Pincnback's admis- sion and criticising the New Orleans events. Ill health has hitherto compelled him to silence, and bis well considered and abie speech to-day was lstened to witb attention and respect by both sides, The recent Senatorial elections have alarmed the administration side of the House for their majority. They will need all the vctes they can get in the next Senate, and the somewhat unexpecied utterance of Senator Burnside showed them that they could not sately count on many of the new Senators for unhesitat- ing support, Hence the determination to seat Pinchback it possible, even at the cost of endur- ance, Pinchback himself was on the floor during the day, and Fred Dougiass and other mem- | bers of the colored community naunted the lobbies and buttonholed Senators who ventured out. Mr. ) provides tax of | additional | | i Morton believes Pinchback will be seated, ana | | Some Of the democratic Senators are of the same belief. The majority will be very small, but efforts are making to keep the administration Senators to the mark and secure a {ull vote. 4 MIDNIGHT SIEGE IN THE SENATE. The Senate proposes to make a night of it, and the floor at mtdnight was enlivened by the presence of many members of the House and of a number of New York republican politictans. The democrats are determined, but both sides are cheerful and in good humor, Pinchback is on the floor watching the proceedings and with Senator West looking over a tally list. He thinks he will go in by threo votes. THE NEW ORLEANS COMMITTEE, The New Orleans Committee gets very slowly to work. It turns out that the committee, with all its zeal, did not work so hard as the sub-com- mittee. The latter examined ninety-seven wit- nesses. The committee heard only about seventy- five. FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT. WASHINGTON, Feb. 17, 1875. EXTRAVAGANCE OF THE GOVERNMENT—IMPOVER- ISHMENT NOT CAUSED DURING THE WAR, BUT SINCE, Mr. Hereford, of West Virginia, in the course of the tariff devate, made a remarkable statement by way of entorcing economy. He showed that the total net revenue of the government trom 1789 to 1874 had been a little over $6,000,000, 000, and that of this sum more than hali— namely, $3,400.000,000, had been raised in eight years, from 1866 to 1874. Further, that the amount received into the Treasury {rom 1866 to 1874 was greater by seven hundred millions than the whole national debt in 1366. He added that though it was the fashion to taik of our pov- erty and the prostration uf industry being because the balance of trade was against us, we, in fact, exported in the last fiscal year a value of nearly nineteen million dollars more than our imports, He argued that the people had been impoverished by extravagance and heavy taxation, not during the war, but since the war. DISFRANCHISEMENT OF NEGROES IN WILMING- ‘TON, N. C.--THE CASE BEFORE THE SUPREME couRT. A motion was made to-day by D. L. Russell, counsel for plaintiffs, before Jadge Bond, of the United States Circuit Court, at Baltimore, for an injunction to prohibit the holding of a municipal election at Wilmington, N. C.,om the ground that the charter recently adopted by the State Legisla- ture disiranchises colored p2ople. The case will be tried at Raleigh on the 6th of March and is a case under the fifteenth amendment. GENERAL WASHINGTON DESPATCHES. onpeielpindel inane WASHINGTON, Feb, 17, 1875. THE ALABAMA COMMITTEE TO REPORT THE HABEAS CORPUS BILL. The select committee appointed to investigate alleged political outrages 1m Alabama met to-da: and, by @ majority vote, directed the Chairman, General Coburn, of Indiana, to report to the House the bill which was recently indorsed by the republican caucas, Messrs. Buckner and Luttrell, the two democratic members, protested against making this bill the report ol the committee, aud insisted that tney should first endeavor to agree upon @ report con- cerning the capectal sudject of their investigation. Their two votes were, however, overrnied by those of Messrs. Coburn, Albright and Gannon, and the bill will shortly be reported. Oakey, of Queens, made a motion to adjouro, which was carried.

SEVENTEEN RECREANT DEMOCRATS. Plain Talk About Governor Tilden and | : Tammany Hall. ALBANY, Feb. 17, 1875. This evening the Assembiy came together again. | The galleries and vestibule of the chamber were | filled in anticipatton of the debate on the Costi- gan bill being continued at half-past seven o'clock. | Speaker McGuire toox« the chair, and, after call- ing the House to order, announced the Governor's Message as the special order for the occasion. | This announcement surprised many, as at hall- past two o’clock a recess was taken until evening, in the midst of the discussion on | the Costigan measure. Mr. Davis, of Washington, who leads the democrats in opposition to the bill, immediately rose and appealed trom the decision of the Chair. A vote was taken, Shall the decision of the Chair be the decision of the house? The Speaker was sustained. Mr. Husted, pending the question, asked to be excused from voting. He | declared it as his opipion, however, that the | Speaker was in error. Mr. Davis then moved a | postponement of consideration of the Governor’s | Message jor one week, This motion, requiring | @ two-thirds vote, was also lost. The House | then resolved itself into s Committee of the | Whole, with Mr. Cleary. of Rensselaer, in the chair, Mr. Husted here moved that the committee rise and report progress in the Message and ask leave to sit again, This motion was carried by a close vote. THE TACTICS OF DELAY. The Costigan bill was next in order, when Mr. Who favor the measure, and who see almost cer- tain defeat staring them in the face shoaid it be pushed immediately, are now fighting for time. ‘The tone of the debate and its allusions to the Governor's alleged interference in legislative mat- ters are subjects of animated discussion to-night | among the mvmbers. Some allege tnis course will | favorably affect the ultimate fate of the bill, while others contend that it has brought strength to the staes of the opponents in rallying around Governor Tilden any triends hitnerto doubting his exact position on the bill; one tact is clear, the democratic majority has beoume de- Een and are already figating among them- selves, GOING TO THE TAMMANY SCHOOL. The allusions to-day of Mr. Lincoln, (rap.) of Ontario, to the New York delegation going to school every Saturday, at Tammany Hall, has ; angered the New York representatives very rouch, Waenner attempted to veat back the tosinuation | by stating that he never went to any schvol to learn nis legislative duties; but Lincoln quietly cooled him down by asking if he had not last Saturday been at the Tammany Hall gatbering. A COMPROMISE IMPERATIVE. Unless.a compromise steps in there is certainty of @ serious splitin the democratic ranks. The republicans have not taken an active part in the debate, and quietly jold their arms, watcning the movements of the democrats, contenting them- selves with @ solid Vote against progressing the measure whenever opportunity arises. VIEWS OF A PROMINENT POLITICIAN, I have 1oterviewed a leading politician vere to- night, who does not wish his name mentioned, as to the precise position of Goveruor Tilden on this question. He summarizes the points of opposition to the vill as tollows:—lu regard to the removal Of officials if appears that in 1849 the Assistant Alderman could present articles of im- peacbmenut to the Board of Aldermen, and two- thirds of the latter coud decide upon tie ques- uon; in 1857 the Comptroller, Mayor and Corpora- | tiou Counsel could be removed tor cause by the Governor alone, the Mayor naving nothing to do | witn it. lt was tht same in the case of the Sheri@. Under the charter of 1870, the Mayor had to present articies of impeachment to the Court of Common Pleas, and after a hearing, if jJound guilty, removal followed. Under the present charter the Mayor can remove toe heads o! de- partments for cause after hearing, and subjecting the removal to the approvai ol the Governor, ex- pressed in writing. This approval of the Governor 1s the cause of the present effort to amend the charter by the Costigan bill, and, instead of es- tablshing home rule or local seil-government in its true sense, Lome rulers would be created and | unlimited powers conferred upon the Mayor over | the finances, over the various departments of the city government and over all the appointed judiciary. The amendments proposed in tue | Costigan bill have never heen asked for by the people, and no provision has been made therein jor its submission to the people ior their approval. Such autocratic powers have never been conlerred unsougit upon way jormer Mayor. i can state positively that these are the sentiments upon which Governor Tilden’s friends now fignt this proposed enactment; their sound philosophy is abotner and probably a more doubtiui question. POSSIBLE TROUBLE. The bill wilt be up again in the morning, Unless the leaders have come together in the meanwaile and airanged a satisiactory compromise troubie may be expected. THE LICENSE QUESTION. ‘The total abstinence element in the Senate was extensively represented this afternoon betore the | Commuiitee on internal Affairs of the House. ‘They appeared in opposition to the bills now | veiore the Legislature to regulate the liquor Speeches were made by Mr. J, N. Stearn, President of the state Temperance Society; Mrs. resident of the Wo- meu’s State Temperance Union; Mrs. U. B. Kude, of Wellsville; Mrs. Swanson. of Brooklyn; Mr. G. B. Hale, of Brooklyn; Mr, James Alexander Mowatt and others. Absolute probivition was asked for, and the Speeches Of the iadies were particularly nappy. A Well attended temperance meeting was held at Tweedie Hall this evening. THR MORNING SESSION. Contrary to reports circu)ated freely here last night the Costigan oii] came up this afternoon jor @ wnird reading. Jt is understood tuat orders came this morning trom Tammany Hall to dispose of the bill in one Way or another. Agitation was becoming more and inore dangerous, in view of the fact that democratic leaders were divided upon it. No doubt is now entertained that Gov- ernor Tilden Was opposed to its passage irom its inception, and defeat so iar is mainly due to his influence. It isaiso claimed that the introduction of the bill will do great damage to the democratic party. Positive divisious nave arisen among the ma- jority in Assemoiy, and with Governor Tilden arrayed against Tammany Halt on one side, and Mayor Wickham ana the whole New York delega- tion on the ower a serious spitt is anticipated. Where Mr. Joho Keily stands nobody seems to know. A square back down has taken place, among fifteen or sixteen democrats, from the resolution passed at the caucus of last week, im Which it Was positively agreed tuat the Costigan bill should be treated as # party measure. But Governor Tilden steps in and tells bis friends tbat he does not want the measure passed and hence the opposition whicn ic met | with in coming up to-day, At one o'clock the bill was reached in its order. When the titie was read Mr. Davis, of Wasuington, rose in his seat and offered the resolution. Aiter a long discussion, a summary oi which ts given below, Mr. Daly concluded his reply by moving the previous question, This motion, pre- Venting any further debate, was put to the House, @nd voued down bya vote of 66 to 50, The vote | showed conclusively the strength ol the opposi- tion, Seventeen democrats voted with the re- udlicans. ‘Their names are Messrs. Barkley, roas. Brown, Cooke, Davis, Fish, Fream, Grima, Hanrahan, Krack, Lawrence, Lewis, Schiefeun, Shattuck, Shiel, Wenzel, Wurts, ‘The absentees were Messrs, Badger, Beardsley, T. J. Campbell, Holmes, McAtee, Merwin, Scudaer, Tremain, West and Worth. THE MORNING DEBATE. When the Costigan bill came up in the House tnis morning Mr. Davis offered a resolution desiguatin; Messrs. Charles O’Uonor, Horatio Seym hd ward D, Morgaa, William M. Evarcs, Francis Ker- nan, John Kelly, Henry C. Marphy and Henry R. Selden a commission to draft a bill which will secure to each city in the State a proper self-gov- ernment. He spoke at some length in tavor of hig resolution, saying that the people of the entire er loox to this Legislature for a measure o! this kind. Mr. WAKHNER Opposed ths motion on the ground chiefly that this bill accompiisned just what his resolution would, if adopted, secure. Mr. I. C. CAMPBELL said that bast fall the democ- racy announced in its platiorm the principle of home role and self-government, and when the democracy bad elected a majority ere be was surprised to find «& democrat rising and pro- posing to commit to some tmdefinito tomb of tne Capulets the moment a bill is introduced here to carry out the Peres ol tisparty. He argued in lavor o1 the bill at some lengta. Mr. SHATTUCK said that although he bad listened very attentively he had tatied to hear any argu. ment going to show that there was any necessicy for tis bul. All ne hed peard was that the democracy, betug in power, ought to pass it. He asked whether any gemtioman here knew that toe Governor hau asked jor tus bill, Mr. COSTIUAN said as he read the Governor's Message ne Was in favor Oo! such a Dill. Mr. SHATTUCK inauired whether the Governor d said he was in favor of sucu a bill. OC. CAMPBELL inquired if the gentieman thought tt hy duty to vote here just as the Gover- nor wanted tim to. Mr. Suartcex said soloug as the Governor 1s not read outer the party his opimions and views ought to be consulted. Mr. HAamMony asked Mf it had come to one man was todecide here.

This bill, be said, gave more imperial abd despotic powers to the Mayor than rest in the bands O1 any Official in the country. Mr. Day said ue would admit this, but it was peeposes: to nold him to a ssrjct responsioiluy. in 870 these powers Were givep to four men—ap- pointed mon. Mr. Davis insisted that the powers given to this oficial were greater than snould be given to any other official, ‘They wera dangerous powers, He turtner criticised tre bul. Mr. Hammond beiag calied te the chair, Speaker MCGUIRE called attention to the fact toat the peo- ple of the State had sent a democratic majority ere to do the logisiation of the State, yet It was found that woenever any question of importance came up here—questions to carry ont toe wishes Ol the people—that majority dwindles aown toa minority, simply because seventeen democrats have seen fit tovote with tus republicans, I! this is to be dove should\ ihe democracy be held responsible tor the legisiation here? One genileman had risen here and said that be could not vote tor this bill on account uf Dis Slavisa Submission to the Governor. Now, said be, y the Governor has\come in here and put his clutches on members to force them to Vute and act contrary to the Wish of the peopie as represented in the democratic party, 11 1s tine 1t was known, and known now and ‘here. He then proceeded tu show that the provisions of this bill Were exactly the same as applied \to ali otuer officials in the matter of removal. ie asked, if you give power to an offictal to appoint, way Should he not have the power to remove? Suouid that not iollow? 18 DOL that the principle which Gedney, Houghton, Law, ine Green, eats in all parts of the State exceptin New | orky As it 18 in that city now, tBe Mayor cannot remove a sngie oficer. or the most insiguificant = cierk. without coming to the Governor, Was that mght? was it proper? He then proceeded to state bow it was that the clause giving to the Governor the decision upon Tremovais Was putin the charter. It was gone by the republicans in 1873 because they did not dare to trust Mayor Havemeyer, Governor Dix was in the Executive chair and they felt they could trust him, hence the provision was put in the charter. Prior to that this power rested in the Mayor. ‘lus change was not in accordance with any prinaple. it Was & mere poiltical exped.eat. He called upoo the majority to stand together and pass this pul asa party measure. He said the majority was making # aisgraceiul exhibition of ttself here, dii- ravetul aud shameil. It was disgraceful ti we executive of this State Was usiug Nis infuenee here in this body, He could not understand how it was that these seventeen men were made ta turn their backs upon their party. . Mr. SHATTUCK—-If the genueman had tne infor- matfon the seventeen had, he, too, might have gone with them, Mr. McGuikE—If [ haa “crooked the pregnant hiuges o1 the knee, that thrift may tollow fawn- ing” in the Executive chamber, perhaps I would.

He then spoke of Tam- many Hall, and told the gentleman from Chemung that the people or the State nad no contidence whatever in Tammany Hall; thai it had no influe ence whatever 10 the rura! districts; that society was never yet known to do apytoing except it was for political self-aggrandizement.

A FUBTHER BEVIEW OF PRESIDENT GABRETT'S POSITION—COLONEL SCOTT'S COURSE VINDI- CATED. PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 17, 1875. No further communication has taken place be- tween Colonel Scott and President Garrett, of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, since the rejoinder ofthe former, Ail the offictals of the road, as well asthe peuple of tis section interested in the freight traffic from the West, unite in the opinion | a testimonial to thelr deceased brother, Nelse Sey: 4 js that Colonel Scott’s letter 1s a complete answer to the charges made by President Garrett. It is claimed that Mr. Garrett entered as early as April, 1878, into an arrangement relative to the compeu- tive business of botn companies, whether for New York, Boston, Philadelpnia or Baltimore, whether locat or through, which, as Colone! Scott de- clares, “has been repeatedly violated py tne Baltimore and Ohio Kauiroaa Company’s officers within the past two months.” it 18 surther stated that while Mr. Garrett virtually accepted the “Saratoga compact,” which was made in Novem- ber last, he nas jailed to carry out his pledges in good faith, dhe effect of Colonel scott's reply is simply tue refusal o: tne Penusyivania Railroad Company to aliow tne Baltimore and Unio cars to run over its tine between Philageiphia and New York, and tt 18 stated that mstructions have been given to its empioyés to take no ireignt and issue No tickets trom the jatter place to points on tne Baltimore and Obio road, and to honor no through tickets issued by that company. The action of President Garrett in deciiming to join the Saratoga combination and his persistence in fixiug rates to anda irom Chi- cago, without regard to the views of the other trunk lines, 1s the cause of this step. Mr. Garrett arrogated Lo himseil the right of fixing @ schedule of rates (rom the West to New York, when in tact he controlied no line between tne two points. If he had made the schedale apply to the road bis company alone controlled, leaving of course, out of the question any pledges wotcu may have been IMaue, the case against him, it is claimed, would not have been so serious; but he assumed the point of fixing rates over the roads (rom Baltimore to New York, which he used simply by permission of the Pennsylvania and Philadeipnia, Wilmington and Baltimore Raliroaa Compauies. AMUSEMENTS. THE FIFTH AVENUE. “The Big Bonanza” drew a crowded audience to this house last nigut. The new play proved to be one of those comic-sensationat pieces which Mr. Daly has for some years presented to the puplic with varying fortune. Tne present work pos- sesses many of the merits and not a few of the defects of tts predecessors. for these, perhaps, it would be more just to blame the public than the author or the manager, who only supply what the pnbiic demands. The story of “The Big Bonanza’ {8 not very clear, and the imterest is very much divided between the groups of personages Intro- duced on the stage. Tne main plot of the comedy, however, has todo principally with the love con- cerns of the hopeful members of the two families Cawallader—first, with the heart romance of Miss Evgenta, the gushing daughter of the banker Cawallader, and his romantic spouse, Lucretia; and second, with the alternate hopes and fears of Miss Virgie Cawallader, the only daughver of the Professor and his more common sense better half, Caroline. The hero of Eugenta’s youthful dream of love 1s a young man named Ruggles, who rescues her {rom a peril upon her arrival from boarding school, and her dream ts opscured by @scion of the Do Hass family, who is the suitor chosen for her by her romantic mother. Kugenta coaxes her easy-going father over to her interests, but her little love strategy i neariy Jrustrated by the plot of De Hass, who, being im trusted with a token of gratitude irom the daugh- ter to her rescuer, conceals a sum of money with the gift, and thus gives to the otherwise picasing trausaction @ pecuniary air whicu wounds aud insults the hero, The incidents oy which the clouds are cleared away from Miss Eugenia’s yoututui ro- mance lorm @ Merry series ef events, which keep the spectators amused to tue end; one of the most original of these being an ingentous test, by which the banker and bis sentimental wile dis- cover the love secret existing between their daughter aad young Ruggies. In many of the scenes evidences of considerabie playwright sku are found, but the work, as a whole, does not rise above the ustal level of locai society plays, Physical fun abounds and tarci- cal tableaux are very much depended upon to make the people laugh. But in order to proaace hilarity it seems always necessal eyond the regions of comedy and a | ‘in advocacy of the bill, and | | quires this quaiity of dramatic compositiou. Tae public likes, and the managers will conunue to prouuée tt in Spite of the shrugs o; che critics. It might. however. be worthwhile producing bet- ter work of the same class, if they are to be found, for there is no good reason why | the true comedy of lie which exists every- where should not as niirth-provoking bere, asin France or Engiand, Notniug has been beglected to make the piece as attractive as pos- sible. It is put on the stage with the complete- ness and taste for which the Firth Avenues Is re- markable, Good actors can make even slight ma- terial entertaining, and we are much obliged to tue artists of the Futh Avenue for whatever musement can be gathered irom these society Plays, and the author of “fhe Big Bonanza” cas Certainly po reason to compiain of the sup. Port given to ois work. ‘The important | roles sell to the lot of Mr. Fisher, Mr. Lewis, Miss | Davenport, Miss Rigi and Mr. Drew, though a new | th: comer and a very young mun was ‘intrusted with Wat, In more competent hands, migat have been made @ pleasing chaiacter. Mr. Drew. who is the son Ola gentiemen Known in this country as aD Irish comedian, bas scarcely had the experience which might Gt him jor a jeading part. Lie is pers fectly cool and coliected—we are aimost tempted ay impassivle—but he tatled to show any very | marked quauties which would be likely to make | bit popular with the play-going public. Mr, Da- vidge had not much todo as Uncle Rymple, and We cohiess We have not seen bimina where his undoubted talent saowed to so little advan- tage. Mr, Fisher, as Jonathan Cawallader, the representative of money, Jairly carried off the honors of the evening. Toere must de some- thing genial and kindly in Mr. Fisher's Dature Or he could never portray so weil these types of good-hear' men. Mr. Lewis,as Pro- | Jessor Cuwallader, @ Very disagreeabie person, Made up 1n @ Very artistic manner. He brought out the comedy of the part very well; out it 1s too serious for him. He is most succ humorous that has underlying it a strain of pathos, while this proiessor—the representative of “drains—-18 bDothing but a very positive, ungrate- | ful und disagreeable person, “Mrs. Gilbert's per: | formance ol Lucretia Cawallader was one of tose fuisbed efforts which give importance to small parts, Miss Auntie Grabam, who seems to be des- tined on Daly’s stage to agreeable and unpleasan Lucretia Cawallader, whose soul, tnougo above money, did not soar to the heignt of maxing her | husband bappy.

STADT THEATRE—THE ‘‘MERRY WIVES OF WIND- soR.” Micolai’s charming opera, @ very clever musical setting of one of the most delightiul of the Shake- spearian comedies, was presented atthe down town German Opera House last night, with Miss Lina Mayr as Mrs, Ford, Miss Bartoldt as Mrs, Page, Miss Beckmann as Anne Page, Mr. Scnttz as Fenton, Mr. William Formes as Ford, and Mr. SchOnwolff as Falstat. Miss Lina Mayr claims the first attention, and tn the Many taking morceaux Which fell to her share she proved herself a rhor- ough artist. The ‘Frau Reich” of Miss Bartoldi Was characterized by an absence of anything ap- proacuing to vocalor dramatic excellence and | barely reached mediocrity. ‘lhe same may be said | of the Falstaff of the occasion. Mr. Schtitz, wno has an agreeavie, well cultivaced tenor voice, and | entire commana of all the dramatic exigencies of | au operatic rd/e, eclipsed himself on this occasion. ‘Ihe chorus and orchestra, under the able direc- | Vion of Mr. Adolph Neucndor?t, lett a very favor- | abl3_ impression on the minds of the. audience. { Mr. Juius Witt bas @ beneilt at this theatre on | Tnewday next, in which he appears in Uffenbach’s “Orpnée aux Enlers.”” STEXNWAY HALL—MISS JENNIE JEWELL HOTCH- KISS.

Her selections | were of a very ambitious character, including | three scenes from “Romeo and Juliet,” two well known American domestic idyls, by Wl Carleton, | aneXtract irom “Hiawatha,” a scene from “The | School tor Scandal” and a comic sketch. Miss Hotchkiss \proved herself to be a very pleasing elocutiontst and in two or three tustances she ais- played talents of a much bigher order than we generally meet with at a cramatic recital. The Tesult of last evening’s experiment should en- courage the young lady to persevere in tne path she has chosen aud to trust to her talents and an appreciative paolic for her reward, MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC NOTES.
