10 ~ PURIM REVELRIES Hebrews Holding Wassail in Commemo- ration of Their Deliverance. QUEEN ESTHER AND PRINCE CARNIVAL. Drowning the Memory of Haman in a Red Sea of Wine. ‘The daughters of Israel made merry last night, and the hearts of the chosen people rejoiced; for, after ten years’ silence, Purim was once more cel- ebrated at the Academy of Music. For weeks this fancy ball had been the dream and the longing of Hebrew society. Jewish merchants’ offices were strewn with ruffles, plumes, ribbons, laces aud bro- cades; Jewish houses wrangled about the date of a bodice, the position of a patch and the proper dimen- sions of » farthingale, and even to the sanctums of grave Jewish bankers penetrated the odors of am- Dergris and bergamot. Mr. T. 8. Herts, the Napoleon of the campaign, sat among the marqueterie of his store selling boxes, weaving dances, planning tableaux and providing with excellent generalship for the retreat of his forces to the sapperroom. Mr. MM. H. Moses, president of the association; Mr. Sam- nel J. Gans, its vice president, and Mr. J. 8. Isaacs, one of. its leading spirits, stirred 80 effectually the zeal of the faithful and the good will of unbelievers, who, whatever their church name might be, showed their hearts to be catholic, that nearly $15,000 was jed to the Benevolent Fund of the association. The ange! of charity, limned on the illustrated .programme, flapped her wings once, and a shower of $3,000 fell at her feet as price of the programme alone, and tho commit- tee felt that its national love of ceremonial ob- servance was still so strong that the royal pomp of color—the Academy blazing with diamonds and cos- tumes, the ringing music aud the fragrant perfumes, the groupings of history and the spring of joyous girlhood welling from the bores would exercise a spell over the spectator and remind him what the Jews had been and still might be. HISTORY OF THE-DALL. The origin of Purim has a peculiar interest for the ladies, sceing that the refusal of Vashti, the Queen, to adorn the ball given by Ahasuerus, the King, was without precedent in the annals of their sex. S0 heinous was Vashti’s offence that her objections to the dance were investigated by s committee, of which Nemucan, chairman and chamberlain, reported as follows: —“This deed of the Queen shall come abroad unto all women, so that they shall despise their hus- bands in theireycs. Thus shall there arise too much contempt and wrath.” From which report sprang the coronation of Esther, the exaltation of Mordecai, the hanging of Haman on his own gallows, the vic- tory of the Jews, and the institution of Purim as a feast which “turned them from sorrow into joy and from mourning,unto a good day.” So there was ample authority for the ball. By the ancient ritual hammers were to be tapped on the ground whenever Haman’s name was read—hence the modern flooring and stage. It was by wine that Esther won the favor of the yoluptuous Persian—henco the supper. And, firmly rooted among Jewish traditions, is the picture of King David dancing in scanty attire before the Ark—which is excellent warrant for the cancan. 5 THE RECEPTION. « Passing into the Academy, through lobbies fes- tooned with smilax, between hedges of camellias and roses and choice exotics, under the leaves of giant palms, such as the maidens of Shiloh danced among when the youths of Benjamin’s tribe fell upon them, the spectator found himself face to face with cour- tiers, soldiers and citizens of France. The citizens, enrolled as Lafayette’s Guard, received him at the door. Mr. Gans was Lafayette; and, as Lafayette appt order in seething France, 80 Mm Gans repressed tho turbulence of the maskers, escorted dowagers to their boxes and settled questions#of piace and pre- cedence among the revellers. In the doublets of vel- vet and light siik hose of Louis XEV.'s court flashed to and fro the Floor Committee—Mr. Moses in white eatin, Mr. Reiss in maroon velvet, Mr. Fatman in orange color satin, Mr. Cohen in lavender satin, Mr. Herts in black silk velvet, Mr. Levy in purple silk, Mr. Schiffer in purple silk and . J. Koch in pink satin, Behind them were mar. shalled a dozen knights in greaves, cuirass and the complete military costume of Henry IV., their renowned white B gpm drooping gradually as the heat increased, and serving more us thermome- ters than as oriflammes. Smart little cabin boys, in gailors’ white smocks, distributed the programmes— dainty pieces of workmanship—whereon jollity and charity march hand in hand, and mummers whirl, glasses brimy champagne flows, and soft nothings are whispered in shell-like cars, while in every cor- ner are the comfortable poor whom Habrew benevo- lence clothes, houses and feeds. So the crowd trooped into the Academy tili it fairly coruseated with jewels, ermine, cloth of gold and embroidery; till pearls ‘and precious stones of immeneo value shone out from masses of glorsy haw like stars in the —_ and the eye was dazzled by the sparkle of the eS.

Downing’s Military Band and Neyer’ Orchestra are Lushed into sudden stillness. The curtain rises upon a fairy spectacle. Queen Esther comes down from her throne, in tunic of fine linen, and rich silk embroidered with dia- monds, with —_ veil falling to her feet and anklets of gold that tinkle as she goes. Nose jewels, chains of silver and go!d, and earrings pierced with a verse of Scripture as amulets complete her splendor, and bottles of rich essences hang from the ginile at ber waist. Prince Carnival is brought into her presence, his motley fools around him, and the globe upon his head. The Prince looks fayged and overworked, ax though Lent were his only vacation and he hated to be robbed of it. But a glance from the royal Jewess consoles him. She claps her hands and shows him the nations of the world, and as the pageant fades away calls Exmeralda and the gypsies to dance be- fore him, with beating of tamborines and rattle of castanets. So the Bohemzan dances, the silyor fringe falling in 9 cascade from head $s. and bodice, and the prophesies the wedding of Prince Carnival and the Queen, flaunts her ribbons in their faces, shakes her tambourine with saucy toss of the head, and is gone. THE DALL OPENED, Crash! ‘The Chimes of Normandy" ring out lond, clear and strong. Quicker than thought the floor is dense with dancers. One bow to their partners, one adjustment of false noses and loos# drexses, one Inet effort to pry beneath the mask of the risd-rrs, and off goes the merry throng, bent on a night of noise and Pleasure, careless of business and the cares of the morrow. Look down on them from the galleries. Wateh the hues, over shifting, as the dance pro- gresses. Falstaff is larding the lean earth beside the ferocious Mourzouk; Romeo is tendering civilitics to Qneen Elizabeth; Lord Dundreary is expoundin conundrwns tothe Queen of the Sun; King O'Neil, in top boots and cocked hat, i cxchangin Uidtney with &. Porsion priticoss in. gold armor cloth and green satin, while Slasher and Crasher fight their notable diel for the hand of Mary Queen of Scots. Some of the dréases aro superb, A Pompadour in maize color brocade, with lace falling to tho side and puffs of garuet satin, might have stepped, wiyt all, from the eanyas of Wattenu. ‘two musk red satin vests, slashed sleeves and hate arlet plumes, represent the daring of the past; and a pretty little jockey, her shirt striped with pale bine satin, with Ip hoes and racers worked ito the border, embod .

These were the will o’ the wisps that drew the attention of the gilded youths who were in quest of adventures, whos = opera glasses darted suppliont glances on each domino as she passed, and who were only too pappy if they at last found some faded widow to confide to them ‘her sorrows over her sixth dozen of oysters and eighth glass ot champagne. These were the Pucks that ravixhed roses from your buttogmole, leas ruddy tl the lips that blushed behind their veils of lace, se were the honris, whose eves now swam with languor, now flashed ont upon you in mockery, The success of the six “Pinafores” ‘wus phenomenal, Their victims might have been counted by the hundred, and when they ventured down into the arena and danced a merry hornpipe their amorous swains simply knelt at their fect aud prayed they might die in that posture. At ight thi "reign an was ov midn © reign of pasteboard er. The order went forth for a general massacre of the linen faces which had shrouded so much loveliness, and the women knew their interests too well to di ate, for nothing but the play of feature can really animate tomime, And now the charac- ter of the batl was for the first time clearly understood, Strange types of beauty rose on all sides, . dark eyes filled with light 2s Rachel's prayer and Eleazar's vow pealed forth in the musie of “La Juive.” Miriam and Joel, Judith and Ruth—all the heroic spirits of Judah's line, might have been represented under these forms. The music flitted from Stranss -to Lecoeq, from Offenbach to Artiti, skimming over the shallows of the dance, but the strange light still gleamed in those fair Jewish eyes, and when the gray dawn broke throngh the chinks of the theatre and the patines of bright gold had one by one been swept ym heaven's flow, pretty Jessica still clasped tho arm of young Lorenzo, till Kitcken’s “Good Night” sent her sadly home to dream of the joys ot the past night.

Spencer Miller, a leading member of the bar, died very suddenly in Philadelphia last evening, under singular circumstances. He had been writing in his office until after five o'clock. He was alone at the time. He was heard by other occupants of the building to get up, go tothe door of his office and call for his messengeT boy. A few moments afterward a gentie- man in an adjoining room saw Mr. Miller gerand lean heavily against the door frame with his eyes close@ and his faco pale. He caught the fainting lawyer in his arms and carried him toachair, He was unconscious, and after lingering about ten minuteg without showing any signs of recovery he was fod to be dead, Heart discase is sup; to have been the cause.

MARTIN KUNDIG. The Very Rev. Martin Kundig, Vicar General of Mflwaukee, died of congestion of the heart at the See House at ten o’clock yesterday morning, aged seventy-four years. The first symptoms of disease exhibited themselves at eight o’clock yesterday morning and hourly grew worse, His physical con- dition had improved steadily since his dangerous illness of three weeks ago, and that it was not such as to cause apprehension is shown by the fact that he conducted carly services’ at the cathedral yester- day morning. Father Kundig was born in Switzer- land aud came to this he gers Wem Archbishop Henni. He was stationed at troit during the cholera epidemic of 1834 and performed arduoud labor in attending upon the sick. He expended every dollar of his private fortune and ran deep!, in debt in this kelf-sacrificing duty, This, with the financial revulsion of 1837, loaded him with @ burden which it took years to dissipate. He came to Milwankee in 1842 and has been Vicar General fifteen years. He was highly esteemed by Bishop Henni and the people of Milwaukee and Wircon- sin, Arrangements for the obsequies will be made Saturday. . COUNT GREGORY STROGANOFF, RUSSIAN GENERAL. Count Stroganoff, a Russian general, who was morganatically marricd to tho cldest sister of the Czar, the Grand Duchess Marie Nicoleievna, widow of the late Duke of Leuchtenberg, died in St. Peters- burg February 20, aged about fifty years. He was the only son of Lieutenant General Count Alexander Stroganoff, formerly Governor General of Little Russia, New Russia and Bessarabia, and Minister of the Interior (1839-41), and grandson of Count Gregory Alexander Stroganoff, who, as Ambassador at Cov- stantinople (1822-5) lent important aid to Greek ind- endence, and in 1838 was the special Russian Am- assador the coronation of Queen Victoria. Tho late Count was a Colonel of the Gnard and Equerry at the Imperial Court. His wife, the Princess Marie, ‘was some years older than he, having been born in 1819. She died February 9, 1876, leaving three sons by her former marriage. who all bear the titles of Dukes of Leuchtenberg and figured creditably in recent wars in Khiva and on the Danube, PERE ROYER. An original character, well known in the Latin Quarter, has just died in Paris at an advanced age. Pore Royer, as he was called, fancied he was an un- appreciated genius and armnsed himself in inventing new systems which were to renovate society. He set up @ new religion, one article of which—and the ono that procured the most” adheronts—was to mako every other day a day of roast. He habituated himeolt to cating only on alternate days, and used to arguo that by sleeping twenty-four consecutive hours and then working for a like period the same sum of ‘Inbor would be pro- duced with a saving of food and the time lost at meals, During the late war Pére Royer invented umber of means for annihilating the Prussians, A never pardoned the War Department for the in- difference it*manifested toward his Greck fire, which he called the “prussovore.” He was the author of some songs, Which were sung in their time by the atndents, and of apoem called “Le droit de boire,” whieh, unfortunately for him, he never found a pub« lisher to bring out © many other philanthro- pists, he died in a state of utter destitution, CHARLES EDWARD APPLETON, D. C. Te English literature has sustained @ severe loss by the death, on the Ist ult., of Dr. C. E. Appleton, at Luxor, Upper Egypt. He was only in his thirty- eighth year, having been born at Reading March 14, 1841, but had oceupied a prominent position in the English-apoaking world for nine years as founder and editor-in-clitaf of the Academy, now the leading criti- cal and literary weekly of Great Britain, Ho wasalgo well known in connection with the important move- ment for the endown:zent of scientific research by the funds of the English universities, a movement which he originated in 1872, aud Yn connection with the subject of international copyright, in behalf of which he visited the United States in 1875. Dr. Appleton was educated at the grammar school of Reading, of which his father, Rev. Robert Appleton, was long the hpad master, and won by cg) titive examination in 1859 a Tunbridge scholarship at St. John’s College, Oxford, where, after graduation in 1863; he obtained a fellowship, and subsequently took the degree of doctor in civil law. He never, however, practised the legal profession, the bent of his mind being strongly toward meta- physics, He wrote but little, but had a special apti- tude far the organization of literary work, and de- yoted himself to that subject throughout his active career, About 1865 he spent some time at Heidel- berg and Berlin to peetee himself in ‘German litera- ture, and translated Dr. Déllinger’s book on “Univer- sities, Past and Present.” On October 9, 1869, the first number of the Academy was pnblished a8 & monthly critical journal, with the original feature that all its reviews were signed, In its original form it was not pecuniarily succoss- ful, being perhaps too serious and too severely scientific, It into the hands of a company and became a weekly journal, still under the oditorship of Dr. Appleton, and, with some modification of its o1 al character, achieved a marked success. In 1872 Dr. Appleton took up the subject of “Endowment of Research” with character- istic enthusiasm, brought about the great meetings at Freemasons’ Tavern and another at Willis’ Rooms in 1873, formed the ‘Association for the Organiza- tion of Academical Study,” and, with the co-opera- tion of his friends, Dr. Pattison, Archibald H. Sayce, Dr. G. Gore and others, inted a volume of essays (1876) upon the subject in question. He also agi- tated the matter in numerous communications to the Times and Pall Mall Gazetle. The result of this agitation was the passage of the Universities act of 1877, Dr. Appleton was the author of various articles in the "heologweal, Fortns, and Contempo- rary reviews, including — striking criticisms of the theological systems of Strauss and Matthew Arnold, and he wrote the elaborate articles on “Atheism” and “Doubt” in Blunt's “Dictionary of Doctrinal and Historical Theology.” It is announced that his essays will be collect ; probably under the editorship of his intimate triend and co-worker in che Academy, Professor Archibald H. Sayce, the de- cipherer of so many Assyrian inscriptions. Dr. Appleton resided since 1872’ at Hampstead. In the ‘winter of 1877 he made a voyage for health to Egyvt, Syria and Italy, partly in company with Professor J. 8. Blackie, and became an enthusiastic student of Oriental urchwology. Returning to Egypt last No- vember, he suffered through the winter from an organic complaint, which hes now promaturely ter- minated his life. He was buried with fitting cere- monies in the Coptic cemetery at Luxor. “A NARROW ESCAPE. A fire broke out yesterday morning in the second story of a restaurant and Jodging house known as “The Senate,” No. 55 Van Houten streot, Paterson, N. J., which came near proving fatal to a number of ple who had, not yet left theit beds. Two chil- Sren—one belonging to ‘the tid giana Campbell Wilson, the other to his brother—were very eaesit sutfocated when rescued. The fire penetrated throug! the partition to No. 57, “The Shuffle |," where, also, the lodgers, and especially several children, were barely saved from the flames and smoke. ‘The fire could not be controlled at first, owing to the fact that most of the hydrants in that neighborhood were frozen. Not much was saved from the two houscs, but the proemees of the fire was stayed. The build- ings belonged to J. A. Lozier, of Hackensack, and were insurea for $2,000 each. The loss was about $1,000, The origin of the fire 18 a mystery, but littlo eure is entertained that it was the work of an in- cendiary. LITERATURE. ‘THE INTERNATIONAL REVIEW FOR MARCH. ‘The March number of the International Review is strong in articles of American political and financial interest, no less than five of the papers therein relating to such matters. First in importance of these is the paper by Mr. George Walker, of N.w York, on “The Currency and the National Banks.” Mr. Walker sets out to show that the volume of currency is too large, and next that the paper or credit element is ex- cessive. The total amount is $1,042,000,000, of which two-thirds are paper and the balance gold and silver. He admits that a larger portion of people uso money now than in 1860, the manumitted slaves, for instance, and hence that there should be more circulating medium per capita than then. Still he thinks “there can be little doubt that the present volume is exces- sive by two or three hundred millions.” Naturally this leads to the question, What part of it shall be withdrawn? He answers, the greenbacks, ond ad- vances arguments why the entire paper money of the country should bo issued by the nations! bonks, their machinery at once tending itself to an‘ifi¢rease of paper money When commerce wants it. He does not recognize even an economy in the issue of paper by the government. As will be judged from the brief summary of a calmly prepared paper he pro- coeds with his argument without pausing to combat the “fiat” money men or the inflationists, not, how- ever, wholly ignoring them. The national bank system having withstood the shocks of every crisis since the war has proved its value, and should, he thinks, be upheld. The paper is carefully written, that portion giving the objections to a paper currency issued by the government being particularly strong. Bearing on the samo subject ia the paper of Mr. Simon New- comb on “The Silver Conference and the Silver Ques- tion.” The anomaly of a government coining money, as in the case of the silver dollars, which nobody cares to use—the people because of their bulkiness and inconvenience, and merchants because of their low relative value—certainly deserves more atten- tion than it is at prosent receiving. Mr. Newcomb’s criticism of the work of the late Silver Conference is well poised. He does not attempt to solve the ques- tion of » silver coinage, but believes that all facts bearing on it should be kept before the people, On the question of tho relative value of silver, he ‘believes that for some years silver will “keep at some mean point between its legal ratio and its present extremely Jow one. After, tho chances are in favor of a further depreciation, un- some new sources of gold supply are opened. ‘The other American papers are ‘The Adininistration and Civil Service Reform,” by Edward Cary; “The Present Condition of the United States Navy,” un- signed, ond “Self-Government in the Territories,” by Chief Justice Wade, of Montana, “Sleep and Dreams” are physiologically treated by Professor Shaler, and Mr. Sidney Lanier’s “A For- gotten English Poet’ introduces us to Bartholomew Griffin, a sixteenth century sonneteer. By acurious coincidence one of Griffin's quoted sonnets is on sleep, and for the purpose of comparison Mr. Lanier introduces the sonnets of Daniel, Drummond and Sir Philip Sidney on the same subject, so that the soul and body, as it were, of ‘the brother of quiet Death” may be examined by the.reader. Among tio book reviews is @ sweeping condomnation of Dr. ‘Weisse’s work on the English language. , IATERARY CHIT-CHAT. Mr. Maurice F. Egan has rosigned his position as oditor of McGee's Weekly to accept the position of editor of the International Monthly, of Philadelphia. Mrs, Oliphant’s handwriting is the smallest of that of any literary person. Printers refuse to strain their eyes with it, and it has to be copied for them. Miss Adolaide Trafton will begin a serial in the May. Scribner entitled “Achsah.” Miss Trafton, who is the daughter of a well known Boston clergyman, haa a very pleasant reputation as a story writer and an observing traveller. George F. Fort, author of “The Early History and Antiquities of Freemasonry,” has completed his new work on “The Me:ical Economy of the Middle Ages,” which will shortly be published. The author has brought his narration down to the ‘close of the fourteenth century. SHIPPING NEWS OF MARCH AND APRIL. Sails, | Deatination.| Britannie .. am | me [March & Liverpool.
