RALSTON’S FRIENDS, The meeting of the friends of Mr, Ralston, set for Wednesday evening next, is developing into a formida- blo organization, with the undisguised object of quietly destroying the Bulletin and the Call by the withdrawal of all patronage from these papers, Arrangements are being made for addresses in Union Hall andon the street in front to 50,000 people, The gathering will exceed in magnitude and interest anything ever known in San Francisco. On that occasion there will be given a full statement of-the affairs of Mr, Ralston in his relations to the bank at the moment of his fail- ure, Colonel William H. Barnes, an eminent lawyer, now of the bank Syndicate, who was the personal warm friend of Mr. Ralston, will make that address. Important resolutions will be submitted to the meeting first in the expression of the condolence ; with the bereaved widow and children, and following that a resolution asking the pledgo of the people as- mbled to withdraw all patronage from the Bulletin nd Call, not to subscribe for them, not to advertise in | them, After the resolutions have been submitted and action taken on them, an eloquent ex-member of Congress will deliver a eulogy on the life and services: to California and the Pacitle coast of the deceased banker. ‘There is no apprehension of any violence growing out of this meeting, and eminent clergymen will open with prayer, and the proceeding will be con- ducted solemnly, in order that the country may know that it is not the gathering of an excited rabble, but the expression of the calm and deliberate judgment of the friends of Mr. Ralston, who condemn the action of those papers and the part taken in harmony with them of the associated press abroad. ‘The Rey.

Wasurvaroy, D. C., Sept. 6, 1875. Applications have been received at the Troasury De- partinent to-day for the transfer of about $1,000,000 gold from New York to San Francisco, These applica- tions were from eight to ten persons in the latter city, and the gold is principally required for commer- cial purposes. Treasurer New cannot make any trans- fer to-day, but hopes to be able to transfer about $600,000 to-morrow, which amount will be distributed | pro rdta among the’applicants. About two weeks before the failure of the Bank of California $1,000,000 in coin was transferred from the Assistant Treasury at San Francisco to the Mint in that | city for the purchase of bar silver, as the Mint was at that time engaged in the ‘coinage of silver only. Since the failure of the bank | Dr. Linderman, tho director of the Mint, gave directions to stop the comage of silver and resume the coinage of gold. Therefore, the $1,000,000 in coin | intended for the purchase of silver not being needed, | $500,000 of that amount was returned to the Assistant ‘Treasurer last week, and the other $500,000 will be re- | turned to him to-day er to-morrow, which willenable | ‘Treasurer New to comply with the present request for the transfer of $1,000,000 in coin from New York to San Francisco. \ SUSPENSION OF A BANK, Burrato, N, Y., Sept. 6, 1875.

Whether or not the American Team who went forth to try their skill against the best riflemen of Europe had been victorious, their reception in New York, upon | returning from the field of pacific strife, would have been cordial; but, returning as they have done, crowned with the laurels of a well earned victory, the people city could not do less than welcome them with demonstrations of joy, The National Rifle Association and the Amateur Rifle Club, who were foremost in recognizing genuine merit in the manly art of rifle shooting, formed a joint committee on reception, among whose members may be noted the names of Major General Alexander Shaler, General M. T. McMahon, Mr. A. Alford, General Kilburn Knox, Colonel G. W. Wingate, R. Johnson, J. T. B. Collis, Judge Stanton, Mr. Schermerhorn, Jr., Captain Casey and others, In pursuance of the plan adopted, Delmonico’s banquet hall was tastefully decorated last evening, with the national flag artistically draped so as to display its broad stripes and bright stars to the best advantage. Over the centre of the guests’ table was the national coat of arms, and fronting it above the entrance was the harp of Erin, without a crown, enwreathed in shamrock’. The tables were beautifully ornamented with the fruits and flowers of the season and covers laid for one hundred and seventy guests, The string band of Delmonico's establishment dis- coursed choice selections of music from the most popu- lar composers, while the company did justice to a boun- tiful feast, set out in admirable style. , In front of the guests’ table, near the principal en- trance to the dining hall, a large glass case contained the trophies won by Gildersleeve, Fulton, Coleman and the rest of the team at Dollymount, Clandebay and Wimbledon. politan city, appropriately occupied the chair, ‘At the guests’ table sat Vice President H.

If every one of the American team could join in shouting something like this, “Ireland is fond ‘of Americal she loyes American citizens and appre- ciates them!’ it would be but what we feel. (Cheers. ) The Colonel, after thanking his friends for their gen erous support in favor of the team, sat down amid pro- longed applause. Colonel Join Ward, of the Twelfth regiment, was next introduced by the Mayor. The Colonel very effectively read an original poem of his own composi- tion dedicated to the team. Mr. William ©. Barrett, of the New York Bar, made a telling and witty speech, re-echoing the sentiments of | friendship and good fellowship which, he was proud to | necossary qualities pertaining say, reigns between Ireland and this great Republic, General Joseph R.

He begged that the metropolis would bestir herself to avoid bbing surprised next year at Philadelphia by Eng- land and other Powers, who, without perhaps intending it, might overdo us in our own country.

PARK THEATRE. ‘The new American comedy produced last night at this house 1s not calculated to increase our faith 1m the {m- mediate future of the native drama, It cannot be credited with originality of plot or incident, In its main features it but developes the peculiarities that won for Colonel Sel- | lers so much popularity in spite of the lugubrious | | story in which that typical character was set. “The | Mighty Dollar” ts an attempt to introduce some char- acters peculiar, we should hope, to Washington into a story of the ordinary texture of comedy-drama, and | nounced yesterday that there were no cases of yellow | from the rough sketch which has resulted {t is evident enough that had a more skilful hand undertaken the work there wore not wanting materials to build up o work of more than ordinary attractiveness. Tho new play comes from the hand of a journalist, which ought to have been a guarantee against the introduction of incidents that have been worn threadbare on the stage, In tho play which Mr, Woolf has given us the types of character presented cannot bo recelved as fairly representative of any class of society. It has the usual fault of attempts to — satirize our native failings, and presents impossible combina- tions of characters in situations that could not well occur in rural life. The plot of the work is so diffuse that it fails to win and hold the attention of the andience. ‘The interest, therefore, depends chiefly on the detached efforts of the two leading personages, whom we should be inclined to pronounce impossible oven in Washington, It is, no doubt, @ matter of great diflicully to present a character like the Hon. Bardwell Slote with- out falling into exaggeration, if tinged with vulgarity; but even in a lobbyist there should be some redeem: ing qualities of mind or heart. We do not suppose that in Congress tho mere fact that a man is a roguo is enough to secure for him influence or to make him sought after by designing speculators; and yet in the character as drawn by’ the new | dramatist there is nothing to redeem his offensive vul- | garity. It is due to Mr. Florence, who creates this | réle, to say that he has done with'it all that could | be ‘done. His make-up was clever and artistic, | and he played with spirit. In presenting eccentria characters upon the stage dramatists should keep them as nearly as possible within the, lines of good breeding and of probability. Congress, even trom the Cohosh district, should go to a | picnic with a very shabby-looking dressing case and | perform his toilet” while waiting for the arrival of the other guests is not very probable, and it is certainly not finuy, People who laugh at such an exhibition and con- | sider it amusing must have u peculiar sense of the | comical, There was no serious effort made in drawing | the character of the Hon, Bardwell Slote more than | to roughly sketch a character with which humorists | have already made us familiar. As a piece of character- | ization it is sadly deficient in completeness and artistic | finish, ‘The same complaint may ve made generally of the play. Its plot is weak and without any strong linking interest, so that the acts are well nigh separate tableaux. ‘The language is commonplace and some- times open to the suspicion of vulgarity, What fun there isis broad, and the dialogue is marked by the absence of terseness and brilliancy which we have a right to look for in comedy. Notwithstanding these drawbacks the play was apparently much enjoyed by a large portion of the audience, especially a number of what may be called alphabetical jokes, which are set up as pegs upon which to hang the future popu- | larity of Slote. But the jewd’esprit belongs to that | class which make the judicious grieve, though the less thinking portion of the audience may applaud, Mrs. | Florence created the réle of one of those silly | women of fashion “who have lived ~— so. | long abroad” that they have lost the good | manners of their own’ country without acquir- | ing those of foreign lands. Her impersonation | of thig character was marked by a great deal of clever- | hess, though it was open to the same charge of exag- | geration as the Bardwell Slote of Mr. Florence, As a | burlesque of American life ‘The Mighty Dollar’? will | probably achetve some popularity, but not until it has been very considerably cut down, Many of the sub- ordinate’ speeches ‘should be reduced to a few | lines. The improvement would be immediately felt, | and the piece relieved from the dragging which last | night interfered considersoly with its interest, Owing ‘That a member of | | place of the higher reaches of tragic power. absurd almost as some of the actingpwut to condemn the performance a8 a whole would be equally unjust, Many of the parts were fairly represented and Mr. Davenport's Macbeth was entitled to much more than respectful criticism. Lacking im the impetuous passion with which a very great tragedian would be able to invest tty it was instinet with a suppressed emotion which fitly took We know of no other actor who brings such intelligence and taste to the interpretation of the part, and the lines were read with @ grace and skill tobe highl: commended, The —_ actor seemed to have tw up the part with a new spirit of nation, quickened and chastened, perhaps, by criticism, to enrich it with the bese art bis and experience; and if he faile his audience he at least — succeeded in charming the earnest students of Shakes- peare among his auditors by his unaffected elocu- tion and the simple dignity of bis demeanor. High as this praise is, it is not beyond his merit, while anything Jess meritorious on his part would have been # disap Pointinent, Lt was due as much from his scholarship and his reputation as an actor as from the peculiat position in which he stands towagd the public during his pre: engagement that he should present this part tin the (ull beauty of bis art and with all the force of his genius. The wort Of the series of representations in which he is now the Principal feature rests almost completely upon his en- deavors, and though Mr. Wheelock, Mr. Ogden and on or two others supported him last night respeetably, the performance of “Macbeth” would have fallen far below mediocrity but for his talents and intelligence, Mr. Davenport’s acting is too well known to requireany closer analysis, and, though he may fail sometimes to realize the expectations which have been formed of him, it isa pleasure to dnd him still the artist he wag of yore, and as earnestly striving to excel as when hi honors’ were yct to bo won. Mr. Davenport appeara this evening as Hamlet, and during the week as Of Shylock and Richard IIL, FIFTH AVENUE THEATRE, ‘The great success of the Mexican Juvenile Opera Troupe in the “Grand Duchess” last week determined the management to prolong their engagement for an- other week, Last night they appeared in Barbieri’s opera “Robinson Crusoe’? and made e a greater suce cess than they did in the “Grand Duchess,” The opera is more suited to juvenile performers than Offenbach’s masterpiece and the children seemed to enter into the dances with great zest, Some of the troupe are of a more advanced age than those seen in the “Grand Duchess,” but the first honors were again borne of by the prima donna, Moron Carmen, The acting and sing- ing of this litte eight-year-old are really marvellous, and everyone ought to take this opportunity of seeing this wonderful piece of precocious lent, The others who best deserve mention were Nina Guadalupe as Guayaba, J. de Castelar as Robinson, and Nino Gabriel a8 Metatios, Tho other parts were well taken, and the pieco Wag put on with every necessary which could conduce to its su The music light and full of melody, and a large audience ga' many tokens of their delight and appreciation. “Rose Michiel” is in full rehearsal, and the management hope to produce it with the usual Fifth avenue company om Monday next, OBITUARY. JUDGE JOHN W. BROWN. Hon. John W. Brown, ex-Judgo of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, died yesterday at New- burg, in the seventy-ninth year of his age, Judge Brown was born at Dundee, Scotland, October 11, 1796, and came to America with his father at an early age, The family settled at Newburg, and the subject of this sketch studied law in the office of Jonathan Fiske, He was admitted to the Bar in 1818. In 1820 he was elected a Justice of the Peace. He was elected to Congress in 1882, and re-elected in 1834. In politics he was a demo- | crat of the Jacksonian school, and in his private | to the length of the speeches and the unavoidable | delays attending a first night’s performance the curtain did not fall till midnight, which renders ‘it impossible to enter fully into a description | of the plot and ‘incident of the — play, and We are therefore compelied to confine ourselves to | glancing at the chief personages, with whom, strangely enough, the real dramatic.interest has little or nothing todo. The attendance last night was large, and consider. | able enthusiasm was manifested during the progress of the new play, which was well mounted and put upon the ge in a munner highly creditable to the management, Several of the scenes are of great beanty. Nothing has | aid to popularity, and it may be that when the dialoguo has been considerably shortened and the action is moro rapid “The Mighty Dollar” may prove a fair success Tho following is the comple caste of “The Mighty Dollar:—The Hon, Bardwell Slote, ‘from the bohosh ist, Mr. J, Saville; Colonel Tom Dart, a Mil lionnaire Railway’ King, Mr. J. ©.’ Padgett; | Arthur Lemaitre, “tho ‘world owes ine a liv: | Hon.

LYCEUM THEATRE—OPENING OF THE SEASON. Messrs, Graa & Chizzola commenced their fall season | last night at their handsome theatre in Fourteenth street, | in which during the past year they achieved so many | triumphs. Opéra boufe served as tho initial attrace tion and was represented by a very charming work by | Offenbach, which has already been given in an English | form by Miss Soldene at the same house. But, con- | sidering the wide disparity between the English per- | formances of * Madame L’Archidue” and the one given | in the original last night, the latter may be considered to j all intents and purposes a first night, Tho story is an amusing one, beginning with the | inevitable rustic wedding, ~—interrupted ~— by araid of handsome Amazonian dragoons, who carry off bride and bridegroom as suspected conspirators and ine | troduce them to the Archduke, much to their amaze- ment, as a proscribed count and countess, The rustic | bride, in her assumed character asa ladyof noble degree, ) | Wins the admiration of His Serene Highness, although | not exactly in the manner that Mrs. Grundy would dic- | tate. Being an original, according to his own state- | ment, the Archduke allows the fair rustic, with whose and very nearly suffers in an ugly serape into which his passion leads him, There is a bewitching littlo captain ' of dragoons, four idiotic counsellors of state, four con- spirators in top boots, blackened eyebrows and long cloaks, and a score of other characters, necessitating a large and well disciplined company.

About forty negroes have been killed and many | on this occasion; it is an honor the team never expect- | Jast evening was as follows:—Marietta, afterward Mme, L’Archiduc, Mlle, Coralie Geoffroy; Giletti, her hus, band, M. De Quercy; Fortunato, captain of dragoons, Mile, Dupare; the Countess, Mile, Nardynn; Count, M. Roger; Archduke, M. Duplan; Ponteflascome, M. Darcy; | Frangipano, M, Castel; Bonavanturo, M. Ludovi Bonardo, M.- Valter; Ricardo, M. Benedick; L’Hote, M. Davalis; Pianodolce, M. Adorcy; Andantino, M. Gerard; Chi-lo-sa, M. Leclere; Tutti Frutti, M. Kremer, “Madamo L'Archidue,” although partaking of the nature of Offenbach’s later works, in a prononess to repeat former musical ideds, has all the brilliancy and sparkle of the Franco-German composer, and is thoroughly enjoyable from the rise to the fall of the cur- tain. In it may be found occasional morceaux of true artistic writing, especially in some of the concerted jeces, Mile. Geoflroy was welcomed back to New York, where she had already established her musical reputa- tion by her exquisite creation of “Giroflé-Girotla,” with a heartinoss that showed that our metropolitan’ public do not forget deserved favorites. In her first couplets, commencing with “Ou je vais,” a dainty little address to her husband and her’ fellow Waitresses (for she was a pretty waiter girl), sho displayed all the humor and aash of Aimée, without any quality that | might be termed coarseness.’ A greater degree of suc- cess Was attained in the second act in the sarcastic ad- dress to the little captain, * Vous officiér, et sans mous- | tache,” in which voice, action, gesture and drollery were ‘inimitable. Not even in * Giroflé-Girotla” did | Mile, Geoffrey attain such a standard of assured popa- | larity as last night in “Madame L’Archidue,” A new | aspirant for opéra boug honors was Mile. Dupare, who appeared as le petit capitaine, She has a very attractive | slage presence, sings well, and is gifted with all the to a prima donna | of the best Offenbachian standard. Bho sang the couplets, Quand nous devons en | alcade,” with a peculiar display of and spirit that called forth a tumultuous encore, Dupare was apparently the favored artiste of the public last night, for she drew down the principal share of the | applause, and bouquets were showered down upon her withont stint, The tenor, De Quercy, and the old favorite, Duplan, made a great success last night, In the performance of last evening a distinguishing feature was the magnificent drill and military mana@a- yres shown by Captain Fortunato's dragoons, and Mile, Dupare may congratulaae herself upon the tactics of her followers. “Sadamo L’Archiduc” is likely to ran through the seven weeks of the opéra bouffe season at the Lyceum, which will be succeeded by Rossi, the great Italian tragedian, MR E, I. DAVENPORT AS MACBETH AT THE GRAND OPERA HOUSE. Mr, RB. L. Davenport has renowed his engagement at the Grand Opera House, and last night began his second week at that house as Macbeth, in Shakespeare's great tragedy.
