Emeute Extraordinary-I The Taglioni and Fanny
Elssler Factions.A mortal strife prevails present
in Paris between the partiSans Of those celebrated
dancers. The Taglioni party do not wish that the
presence OF Fanny ElSsler should efface the recol-
lection OF Tagioni, and the EsSler party do not see
why their charming dancer should not profit OF that
absence to take the lead in the ballet. War has
been declared in all the play going societies. and the
Swiss OF the Opera, the paid elaqucrs, have been
tanned on both sides. On Tuesday night pitched
battle took place in the pit of the Academic Royae,
between the main bodies of these armies Fanny
Elsser appeared for the first time as Ondne, in the
File du Danube. She had previously achieved
wonders in Tagloni's favorite part of The Sylphide
and il was naturally feared by the friends Of the lat

first pas was received in silence; the second scene
was vehemen'y applauded on the one side, and
strongly reproved on the other. Al length, when the

advantage in these squabbes, for respectable persons
will retire rather than engage in such disreputable
exhibition; but on this occasion the boxes and stalls

Thus, Unexpectedly reinforced, the eaguers Of her
party pursued their triumph They pummeeled
without mercy some of the most refractory of the OPP
posite party, and the police coming to their aid the
most prominent OF the unfortunate Taglionies were
hauled out of the pit by main force. Fanny Elssler
remains mistress of the field, rather of the flood,
and she is now the DAUGHTER of the Danube.

NNER TO SENATOR TALLMADGE.

The political friends OF this gentleman, TO the number
Of about one hundred and fifty, honored this disln-
gushej United States Senator with private dinner at
the American Hotel on Friday evening Gideon Lee,
presided, Er,Recorder Rker, and Ex Alderman Della
mater, assisted Vice Presidents. The Mayor, EE-
Mayor Hone and number OF prominent citizens, were
invited guests.
A great number OF patriotic toasts given, and
upwards Of twenty speeches made Senator lalmadge
when conpimented by toast, rose and addressed the
company for upwards of an hour. He gave most IN
eresting history Of the and doings OF the present
Administration. The manner in which he had been
prescribed by those power. and hunted down by the
sturdy bull dog, tie Globe, and every yelphg cur
throughout the country. He gave most lucid history
of the combination organized to put down the whole
credit system, and the establishment OF the Sub-trea
sury with legs The recommendation by Mr. Van
Buren,, President for Bankrupt Law, and the opposi.
ton Of Mr. Van Buren,, Senator, to the same Bank
rupt Law.
His speech was listened to with profound attention,
aud interrupted with cheers every five minutes. On set
ting down he gave the following toast - Uacompro-
missing hostility 10 the reelection of Martin Van Bu-
rem" which received with nine cheers
Mayor Clark, Mr.. Hone, Senator Frederick A. Tall
madge, Mr. Moses Grnnel, Mr.. Sandford, Recorder
Riker and nnmber Of others, were all called up by
complimentary toas,s, during the evening The com
Pany broke up at a late hour, IN high spirits.

men in New York who have done more than this

been during the election emphatically rork,ng

Resignation Of the Hon II. L. White-We have
it from undoubted authority that the Hon. Hugh L.
White has sent on his resignation to the Governor
of his seat in the United States Senate. He in
Guced no doubt to take this step from the fact that
his health has been SO much impaired by a late at
tack of the epidemic, that he thinks himself wholly
unable to undergo the labors involved in journey
to Washington, and faithful discharge Of his du-
ties in the Senate chamber. We have often heard
him say and the whole history of his life COMFORTS
with the declaration, that he would hold Office
unless he felt himself al least physically qualified for
faithful discharge of its duties. The present Sc
we're indispoSon Of MIR. White furnishes, no doubt
another weighty argument for the Judges resigna-
ton. And however much we may lament that cir
cumstances Of painful character, and SO calcu-
lated to excite deepest Sympathies, have occur
red TO deprive his constituents and his whole country
of his eminent services al this critical period Of
government, yet satisfied hat his reasons
above all just impeachment and fully justify the
course he has taken
In his present, we hope but temporary retirement
from public life, the Judge must feel those consoa-
tons which flow from consciousness of having
honestly and faithfully discharged every public trust
committed 10 his care. The shafts of cslumny and
defamation have been hurled in vain against his
reputation. Nothing has, or can, impair the fast
hold his honesty of heart and purity OF purpose has
given him in the confidence of his constituents

sumed amidst The flame of detracton which assails
