picting their wretchedness, their ignorance,
apathy and degradation, he inquiries "What
shall we do for the poor whitesf" We answer,
let them have q little of that philanthropy
which the abolition radicals are now expend-
ing upon the Southern blacks, and much go6d
will be the result Moreover, as Greeley has
at last recognized the unfortunate condition Of

HKRRMAxxs MIRACULOUS PERFORMANCES we have
never before, expect to see again, so
wonderful a genius Hermann in his most interesting
profession The feats which he has invented this
season. and Of which he presents something more fresh
and startling every night more like the miracles Of
oden time than the performance Of mortal hands and
merely human mind. In witnessing them we may well
pardon the creduty and the prejudice Of those who, in
the days Of wtchcra attributed many things not half
wonderful TO the agencies Of the Evil One But there
is about Herrmanns method precision and elegance OF
manipulation that charm much the feats astonish
The hat trick-in which he extracts from ono gentle
mans hat more hoop skirts live rabbits, gobets and
lighted lanterns than fifty hats could possibly holds
Of the most extraordinary Of all his feats Il we ex-
cept making cage full OF canarcs disappear from the
stage and appear nsantaneously in the parque This
is more like magic than slcght OF hand, and the
odn oprdndi Is utterly incomprehensible as ell az
beautiful from the rapidty and grace with which the
transposton made 1t Is 10 be regretted that Herr
mann's other arrangements in Havana and Mexico do
not permit him remain longer In the city His per-
formances will believe, be limited TO this evening
and Saturday at the Academy Of Music. Last night he
played In Brooklyn verv fashionable house, and will
conclude his engagement there tomorrow evening
