Tyler and Gripnell Bart, the commissioners charged with the expenditure of $15,000 appropriated by the State for the improvement of the Delawaro River in Delaware, Sullivan and Orange counties, for ratting purposes, have sub- stantially completed their work, which has proved a complete success.

Woodward, the Clerk of “the Ring,” on His Wa to the City. WHAT HE SAID T0 A HERALD REPORTER His Occupation, Amusements and Conversation on Board the Train. Hanrisavra, Pa, Oct. 11, 1876, The train bearing Elbert A, Woodward back to New York, afier his six yoars of absenco arrived here ata quarter to twelve o’clock to-night, and will reach {tsdestination at six o’clock to-morrow morning. Your correspondent got on board at Altoona, and after some little search found the object of his journey sitting in a section of a Pullman car by the side of Sergeant Kealy and Detective Dilks, of the Central Office, whose prisoner he was, The party were engaged at supper, and to all appearances were travelling as friends. $o well, in fact, was the deception kept up that not even the conductor, much less the passengers, kuew the reta- tionship existing between the men, On seeing your correspondent Sergeant Kealy exhibited to him a tele. gram received at Pittsburg trom Superintendent Wal- ling prohibiting any person {rom talking with the pris- oner until after ke had beon taken beforo the District Attorney. The injunction was unnecessary, however, for his downenst faco and continued silence plainly told that ho would not talk, WOODWARD'S APPEARANCE. Woodward has changed much in appearnnes since the time he was clerk of the Board of Supervisors, He was then a stender built young man of about thirty- two, with a face thoroughly American, Now he is quite stout, and looks tén years older, and his features and manter are those of an Englishman who has tray- elled much abroad; his bair is short and parted in tho middle, and he wears a blonde mustache and imperial. Eyeglasses and a well fitting suit of gray clothes make up his appearance, 1 ARREST. Kealy and Dilks arrived in Chicago on Sun- day last with Governor Tilaen’s requisition, After an interview with the Chief of Police, Pickey, they proceeeed to the Armory, where Woodward was confined, Kealy at once recognized him, despite his changed appearance. Learning the names of his yisit- ors, Woodward manifested considerable emotion, but quickly recovered himself and announced his readi- ness to accompany them whon they would exhibit the proper papers, The officers then took the train for Springfleld, where they obtained from Gover- nor Beveridge the necessary documents for taking the prisoner out of the State, Returning to Chicago on Monday might, Tuesday was spent in resting and keep- ing clear of the Chicago reporters, Prior to taking the prisoner tothe train on Tuesday afternoon tho officers were waited upon by Woodward’s counsel, ex- Congressman Ward, who demanded to see the papers, Theso being produced and adjudged legal, Woodward was placed in a carriage and put on board the train, OX 1S WAY BACK. For the first tew hours of the journey the prisoner appeared very downcast, but reassured by tho cour- tesies of the officers, who promised not to handcuff him solong as he made no attempt to escape, he gradually became more cheerful, The elections in Obio and Indiana seemed to interest his mind somewhat, as at times he eagerly bought up the different newspapers offered for sale on the train; occasionally he placed his hand to bis brow, as if in much pain, Once he spoke of his wife and children in Norwalk, Conn., and as he did so tho tears filled his eyes, He appeared to fully realize his unenviable position. During the entire trip, however, he made no allusion to his case, and his custodians cautiously avoided referring to it, Tho party having a section in the hotel car, no necessity arose for the prisoner alight ing, and bis meals were regularly served on board. At might he took the top berth, Sergeant Kealey and Deteetlve Dilks reheving each other in keeping watch over him, His appearance yesterday morning indicated that ho slept poorly, it at all, and the haggard, careworn expression of his face showed that tho nearer he got to New York the more nervous he became. Yesterday morning the the train met with a delay of two hours at Logansport, Ind., & freight train ahead having been thrown off the track, aud the incident occupied Woodward's at- tention apparently to the exclusion of his troubles, é PLAYING EUCHRE, ‘When again under way he expressed a desire to play euchre, and Detective Dilks and he whiled an hour away in that enjoyment. A TALK ABOUT TWRED, After leaving Pittsburg, and while conversing on gen- eral topics, in which the came of Tweod was men- tioned, he suddenly broko off with the remark, father mournfully uttered, ‘It’s a rather singular coinci- dence that Tweed and I should be going back to New York at the same time,” At times ho spoke of the scenery along the route, comparing it with what he had seen fn his travels, but he always referred to the latter with a ocigh, For hours at a time ho maintained a strict silence, looking out of the win- dow absently. Several times your correspondent was on the point of spenking to him, but the firm look on the face of Sergeant Kealey, who kept constantly at his side, showed that it would be useless to attempt it, No eccidents happening Woodward will be taken beforo the District Attorney to-morrow morning at eleven o'clock. AMERICAN ARCHITECTS, Priavenrnta, Pa., Oct. 11, 1876, The annual meeting of the American Institute of Architects took place hore to-day.

Curry, who said he was a horse dealer, residing at No, 214 West Forty- seventh street, was arraigned, charged with having swindled Mr. Thomas Canary, keeper cf a livery stable at No. 36 West Twenty-ninth street, out of $375 It appeared from the complaint that in May last Curry vrought a string of horses, which be represented as his own, to Canary’s stable and put them on livery. He asked Canary for the sum of $5 375, saying he would repay him when he soid the horses, and Canary gavo him a cheek for the amount, Soon after a man named Prendergast appearea, produced a vill of sale from Curry and took away the horses, Curry was held in $1,000 ball, COMMODORE VANDERBILT, Mr. Vanderbilt was apparently much better yester- day, but his physicians seem somowbat anxious, and are uorelaxing in their attendance, There seems to be some doubt on their part that theprésent appearances: are delusive, and have restricted the number of visitors: who call, Yesterday he was only altowed to see Dr. Decms and members of the family. ” AMUSEMENTS. STEINWAY HALL—THOMAS’ CONCERT. The sixth grand popular concert of Theodore Thomas took place last night. The programme was well diver, sified. The list of composers on it was very attractive, These were Beethoven, Mozart, Wober, Rossini, Gou- pod, SainteSaens, Max Bruch, Lum; da party by the name of Wagner, Miss Drasdil, an excellent singer in the contralto line, and Mr. Whitney, a base singer, were the soloists, The orchestra being the principal attraction, to this body of trained instrumentalists we are compelled to devote our criticism, especially as the solists deserve but a passing votice—their names, and nothing elso, The *Tannbauser” overture, weil Known though it be, was imbued with new life by Thomas’ Orchestra Inst night) Even the broken phrases for the reeds, atter the sombre and church- like pilgrims’ chorus, seemed to gain unwonted instrc- mental vitality in the magnificent rendering of the band. The overture 18 now as familiar to the metro- politan public as the “Levy Waltz,” a /a Gilmore, Yet it was as fresh and beautiful lust might beneath Thomas’ inspired baton, as if 1 were produced for the first4i.ne. The adagio to’*Prometheus,” that poetic thought of Beethoven. Vigano’s work, Geschople des Prometheus,’ found av inspired m: interpreter in Beethoven. ‘The struggles of the victim of the gods, bound to an eternal puoishment for bis gi(tto mankind of power and science, are depicted with a master hand in this overture. Weber has tn- Vited the entire musical world to dance on the piano, and Hector Berhwoz put it in orchestralform. Thomas’ orchestra interpreted the sensuous terpsichorean moasures last nightin the most graphic manner, In the second part of tbe bill Max Broch appeared as a species of musical sprite, as Lurlive. He, under the artistic photographic process to whieh ne was sub jected by the crucial test to which Thomas’ orchestra Subjects every new composer, camo out unscathed. About a year ago, when Titiens made her first bow ‘before an American audience, Max Maretzek produced, for the first time, Goa- nod’s queer 1ittlo bagatelle, “Funeral March of a Marionotte.? It 1s a dainty burlesque, and was deli- cately bandied last evoning by the orchestra. There Was a delicious Strauss waltz, such as might be dancog im the Vale of Cashmeré when the scene first unfolded itseil to the imagination of Tom Moore.

The Dublin Freeman's Journal of September 23 tolls Miss Emma Abbott that ‘sho will find a Dablin audi- ence a judicious, but indulgent, it noisy, jury of critics. ’? Dr. Hauslick, the eminent critic of Vionna, says of Baireut “In the ‘Nibelungen-ring,’ two, three or six persons may be standing together on tho stage, but (with marvellously rare exceptions) they never sing simultaneously; they never sing save one atier another, as though they were witnesscs in a courtof Justice.” No performance could take place at tho Theatro Royal, Dresden, one night about a fortnight since, in consequence of the refusal of Mile, Malton to sing in “11 Trovatore,”? and of the inability of the stage manager to give another piece at so short a notice. The reason assigned by the young lady for her refusal was that sho had been insulted by one of the gentle- men who sustained a part in the opera, and would not ging with bim, The pretty little American drama of “Clouds,” now onthe boards of the Park Thoatre, is increasing in popular favor, notwithstanding the drawbacks which have attended its production. The piece now runs smocthly, and the company docs justice to Mr. Mars- don’s clever play. Miss Jeffreys and Mr. Searle have much improved in their rdles, and the substitutiop of May Howard tor Miss Wood detracts nothing from the general excellence of the cast. THE FINE ARTS, THE BELMONT COLLECTION, Among the pictures which no one who visits the Bel- mont Gallery, now open to the public in aid of tho Centennial Loan Exhibition, should fail to noticé, Is the “Slave Market,” by Geromo, It 1s a superb specimen of the style of: this celebrated master, fino in color, Deautiful in drawing and with extraordinary force of expression, The impassive figure of the merchant is in striking contrast to the wretchedness, grief, shame and despair revealed in the attitudes and faces of tho slaves who crouch before him. WESTCHESTER POLO CLUB. Forpwax, N. ¥., Oct 11, 1876 Dr. Metcalf and Dr. Do Marmon eay that Mr. Douglas conwnues to improve, and all bis symptoms are favor- able. Mr. Douglas is at the Westchester Polo Club House and his doctors will not permit him to be removed for 8 week or more. The polo games announced for to-morrow snd Satur- day have been postponed for the present, POLO. To tus Eprror or THE HeRaLp:— One of your contemporaries protests against polo, on the score that it is dangerous; but more still, that itisan expensive game, from indulgence in which “young men of moderate means” aro. excluded. Hence, the argument runs that there is something morally wrong about polo. I wonder that your con- temporary does not sce that this argument would lio not only against polo, but much more against yacht- ing, against the owning of race horses, against living inahouso somewhat better than can be afforded by “young men of moderate means,’ against the opera, against suit of clothes even. All the things may become “tempta- tion” to “young men of moderate means’? re weak-minded enough to be tempted. In- deed, on the principle announced vy your contempo- rary, Wo ought all to live in straw houses, and to keep a guod cook Would be an wnpardonaule sin. But the tact is that polo docs not come into the liat of extravagantly costly amusements, as you contem- porary seems to 8: It involves tte ownership oO two or three es, each worth, perhaps, $60 or $75, and all three less valuable than one good riding horse, against which, nevertheless, your contem- porary would ise = nos objeetion, If had protested against racing with fast ho on the road, an amusement which really Jnvolves expense, und oft he would have had some gro seems to forget that there are ‘of wealth in New York who ly afford tho ex- pense of polo and who find ia armless and healthful amusement, the very conditions of which are correct living and the development of muscular strength and skiil in horsemanship. It 18 hardly fair to sclect polo as the target for criticism, for it, less almost any other amusement of the wenithter cla is amenabie be ve ei of leading to extravagant or deleterious abits, ‘A YOUNG MAN OF MODERATE MEANS,” jot leads to betting stand on.
