From the N. Y. Erening Star, Tuesday,
MADAME VESTRIS.

grThe reception of Madame vestris last evening
at the Park Theatre all she could have desired,
warm and enthusiastic She opened in an allegori-
cal piece got up with bad TASTE called The Recep-
ton, or Dream of the Future" piece rather ha-
zardous for first appearance, which went off hea-
Willy. This was succeeded BY comedy By Baily,
called One Hour, in which Mr.. and Mrs. Matthews
appeared and great advantage. It is evident that
the great charm and attraction will be her singing,
certainly most popular and enduring. Her skill is
admirable, and her voice rich melodious and clear ,
her embellishments not ford yet pure, and her into
nations remarkably distinct. As an actress she is
easy perfectly at home, but nothing superior TO what
we have had. Her range of characters is great,
consequently there is full scope and variety; her
acting in Gertrude in the Loan of Lover, was not
equal to the quaint manner of Mrs. Kelley, yet her
song Of " I've no money" was Infinitely superior
il was perfect. Mr.. Charles Matthews, without
much pretension is exceedingly clever-a fac sinile
of his father; the very picture Of mirth and good
humor, light as a feather. H is Neapolitan song
was admirable, and his dance Of the Tarantala
showed his familiar acquaintance with Italian man
ners and customs. 1t was altogether very agreea-
BILE first appearance; the house was exceedingly
crowded, and many hundreds could not obtain admit
lance.

arms, ammunition, &c., the whole Of which It
is probably truly stated would amount TO up
wards Of one thousand dollars. This is a tax
on the people besides the risk attending the
operation. A tax OF one thousand dollars at
tending the transfer of one hundred thousand
only! This is one Of the fruits Of the Sub
Treasury scheme. On the other hand, the
State Banks, must have transferred at least
hundred millions dollars during the years
1884, '35 and sc, free of any and every tax
or charge on the people.
In several instances, we understand, the
Secretary of the Treasury has lent specie in
Ohio, to banks for six months, on condition,
that they would place it in Washington at the
end of that time. Now, this done at period
when the Government is paying six per cent.
interest on its Treasury notes issued, amounts
TO a tax on the people Of three thousand dol
lars or any hundred thousand so arranged
Which will the people have, the State
Banks without being taxed, or the Sub rea-
sury with all the risk, expenses and conse-
quent taxation? Let them PAUSE AND
PROFIT BY IT."

zone of the most striking features in the present

This taste is rising TO passion in the mines of Ia

who made the revolution of 1880, is the nation in
debed for it. II is a fact that here all the leading

CHANGES. ......

THE CONTRAST--TRANSFE OF THE
PUBLIC MONEY--DOMESTIC EX-
CHANGES.
In his report in December, 1885, speaking
of the transfers made by the banks, under the
State Bank Opposite System, the Secretary
of the Treasury used the following language:
"These transfers, when rendered necessary have
been performed in such directions and gradually,
that it is believed they have tended to obvae rather
than create any pressure in the money market and
to aid materially the course of business in exchanges
and the other commercial operations of the coun-
try"
In his message, in December, 1886, Gen.
jackson thus spoke of the Deposite Banks,
and the services they had rendered:
"The whole amount Of the public money trans
ferred by the Bank Of the United States in 1882 was
SIG 900, 900. The amount transferred and actually
paid by the Deposite Banks in the year ending the LIST
of October last was $3.50 319, s99 the amount trans
ferred and paid between hatperiod andthe 9th No
vember was S. 399 900; and the amount Of transfer
warrants outstanding that day was $l4, 100000;
making aggregate Of $50 l6S S94 These enormous
sums Of money first mentioned have been transferred
with the greatest promptitude and regularity; and
the rates al which the exchanges have been nego-
tated previously the passage of the deposte act
were generally below those charged by the Bank OF
the United States"
Respecting these enormous transfers of
the public money, the Secretary of the Trea-
sury in his report to Congress in the same
month said: ....
CAN the transfers ordered have been so modified
in respect to time, place. and business, TO produce
THE least inconvenience and expense possible TO the
banks or the community, consistent with faithful en-
deavors TO execute the law, (deposite and distrbu-
tion,) both objects securely and efficiently. They
HAVE BEEN SO CONDUCTED AS ALSO TO RELIEVE THE
Treasury FROM ANY EXPENSE WHATEVER IN ITS FINAN-
cIAL OPERATIONS LARGE AND UNUSUAL"
Language, like either Of the above passages,
uttered at this day would be set down as
Conservative reason and its authors as
"apostates" from Democracy! "Rene-
gade Republicans =" But, now for the
contrast. How is it under the Sub-Trea-
sury system, which is declared to be in full
operation We will show. But few days
