Mr.. john peah appears 90 na,o pcen u
mechanic, who met a young lady, and they
did mutually love. Tn, reupJE ho seeks her
ncighborhoOd az coachman Of her father, and
consequences ensuc. 1t Is, really, q piece
OF pure romance, and if he be a good, honest,
manly fellow and not a boor. every othcr.hon-
est cIlow must congratulate them. If
he be a boor, then it 4 sad. But 20 it
would be il he belonged to our very highest
nobility. and were still n hoJ.. | have a
Irend who moves in the srcctcr circles and
he tells inc that he has mot Doors and bores
OF every kind within the pcrlumod purlicus
OF crinuliua and point lace. He adds, what
no man of splrit can conccde even in
argument, that he has also found both,
w'ttn the crinoinc and point lace aforesaid
This latter statement | take to be one Of
those extravaglnces that characterize all
social criticism upon our nobility.
Bnt the town has not quite relinquished
its interest in the Boxer story. Only yes
terlay evening The Post informed its readers
that Boxer pcre, disheartened at state Of
society wherein daughters can marry coach
men, proposes t. sell his estate upon the
Hudson and return to Europe 1t was
only on Saturday that the boys ablu the
Post Office and in the lower part Of Broad
way, were yocIerating, 'IIere is John Dean
and his own Mary Ann! only one cent ]
purchased the couple at an earlier day for
wo cents, and found that | had no less than
three different ballads upon the story
y ilIiklns was the fayorte air but there
were others, and they were indecent. High
er up Broadway, also, hurried placard in
writing, announces that Mr.. jenkins will
this evening sing the Boxers daughter, and
the affair has already been dramatizej
Thus, you see, we 'IpiOU our scandal
and make the most of our little Incidents
The ktlloch trial, as | told you, had supe-
rIor claims upon our attention, and the
Boxer is undoubtedly finally withdrawn
Mrs. Hatch, who indulgcs, ut the Tabor-

whlchIl-aiah ltynders declares beat any
prayer he ever heard in pulpit which
the thoughtful student Of his career can
easily beiieyc-and who, | believe, TIPS
tables, and informs the audience that the
spirit OF Franklin says honesty is the best
policy, and that Of Copernicus, that twice
two makes four, which entertainment is
called 'Spiritualism, at present divides
public interest and the newspaper reporting
with L'az1aniga, the new prima, and the
great comedy cast at Walack's Theatre
1t was matter of qualification to all low
ers OF spiritual things, to learn, on Satur-
day morning, that Captain Rynders had
taken the spiritual world and its present
mundane agent, Mrs. Hatch, under his
protection. Isaiah Ryndcrs, rs you perhaps
know, is the pet Of New York. lie is our
metropolitan darling and our Manhattan
dear. lie is President Of our Empire Club,
which controls our elections for US; and
when mere British actors venture to expose
themselves to the survey of American eyes
and minds, he demonstrates with them by
breaking many heads and causing American
lives to be lost. lie thus maintains the
dignity OF the city and country, and proves
that Mr.. Edwin Forrest is n great actor
which might have been difficult problem
to prove, at less expense. If any event in
our current political history pleIses Mr..
Eynlcrs, lie instantly botakes himself with
u brass cannon into t., Park, and breaks
all the windows and lri5htens all the hor-
ses within range, that he may have sympa-
thy in his joy.
When the anti-slayerY society held u

tynders intericred with the Proceedings
