The WEATHER. = Between ten and
eleven o'clock last night our city was
visited by fierce storm, that continued
to rage nearly the whole night The
rain fell in lively style that would have
done honor to the time Of Noah, accom-
panied by vivid flashes of lightning and
startling peals of thunder. The rain con-
tinued falling this morning, probably en-
deavoring to finish the business, so as to
inaugurate the first day of May with
beautiful weather, which we will welcome
with pleasure.

NETWORK TnEATER-AfILE. ZOE
Mile Marie Zoe succeeded the Worrell Sisters ut
the York Thoator on Monday evening, appearing as
the tricoorcd heorne OF The French Spy" The meo-
drama Is wellknown and holds high rank among the
a5sures OF stage literature. The actress is not well
known at least upon the metropolitan stage nor is She
likely to become She is of those female perform
ers who appears imagine that stout leg is precious
boom thing of beauty, ajoy forever, and crown to its
possessor Generally these performers exhibit them
selves Md;eppa character that affords ample room
and verge enough for very conspicuous display OF calf
Sometimes however, they denote preference for the
semnudlty of Ogditd, and sometimes they prefer The
French Spy" Mile Zoe has made the latter choice and
has succeeded in making herself exceedingly ridiculous
To speak OF her acting would be awaste OF words She
docs not appear las actress but expositor OF calf
Representatives OF the French Spy cannot nationally
plead that they are prompted to the character
nv sense OF intrinsic merit in tho drama; for the drama
is horrible compound Of gross improbabilty and windy
nonsense They play the part simply because It affords
them an opportunity 10 display their persons IL the
scenes for the Arab boy cut out should never
more hear of the French Spy" Mile Zoe, then, say,
appeals 10 criticism on the OF her physical shape
and size Our duty in the matter is very simple and will
be fulfilled when say that she possesses the three
dimensions OF exenslon-ength, BREADTH and thickness
She s also person of great apparent vitality She gets
over the ground with uncommon speed But she Is not TO
be compared with the Arabs nc the Olympic There You
NAV see the genuine Desert Child. Nile. Zoe il but
mild copy even In the matter Of muscle And here u
occurs TO 10 saylest be misunderstood-tha our
often expressed objection 10 these legperormers OF the
Menken Leo Hudson Kate Fisher and Mile Zoe school,
is not based the theory that they exercise vicious
influence over the morals OF the community That would
be paying them sort of compliment. The truth Is that
they attract only the coarse class OF spectators ana u
Is pretty well established fact that added eggs cannot
be ocd But what especially ofends good taste is the
overwecnng vanity and gross Stiffness which prompt
female thrust her legs upon public observation There
H. generally, nothing in them but saw-dust; and even
when they are flesh aud blood they are exceedingly un
teresting objects of contemplation We say nothing or
is implied exhibitions OF this sort but why Why
will women make such fools of themselves There are
numerous dramas in which women can appear, with
modesty and sense and taste, and talent ana SO can WIN

The Russian Government, says a Cable dis
patch, has called the attention Of the Govern
ments of England, France and the United
States to the existing state of affairs in Ireland
and expressed the opinion that joint inquiry into
the condition of the island, on the part of the
Governments of Russia, France and the United
States, in conjunction with that of Great Britain
should take place This would certainly be most
astounding news, if it were true. But few
people will be able to persuade themselves that
it is. 1t certainly reads more like Fenian joke
than like Russian note. Very possibly the
Russian Government believes that the wretched
condition of Ireland should be investigated,
but action upon that belief would be very
different thing.

Mr.. Stanbery. An amendment was offered by
Mr.. Howard providing that vote in favor of
secession should not Of itself be regarded

WHO rs RESPONSIBLE FOR ANDERSON
VILLEi
Gen. Shanks offered in the House yesterday
resolutions directing a thorough and systc-
matte investigation of the treatment of Union
prisoners of war by the Rebel Government
and for this action we'll deserves general thanks
The inquiry is tardy; it should have been made
long ago, and we have repeatedly urged
Congress TO do this very thing. The trial of
Wiz raised many important questions, and it
was claimed that the testimony taloI, directly
implicated the Richmond Government in the
cruclties of Andcrsonvi!le and the Libby prison.
But it settled one question only-the guilt of
the prisoner That was decided Wiz was
hung; yet no one believes that Wirz alone was
responsible for the atrocities committed He
must have had accOmplices he may have acted
under the orders Of his superiors. Now this shows
precisely what has not yet been settled, but
what the United States is bound to fX-the re-
sp0nsibility. The official records of the Re-
bellion are in possession Of our Government
thousands of5Union soldiers who suffered, and
Rebels who saw their suiferings, are scattered
over the country; there is no lack of evidence,
documentary and direct All that is needed is
III lHNtbtlSdllOH NuICH bllill III blutH D'
thorough and systematic, and which
shall reveal how far the starvation
of our captured soldiers was caused
by the cruel orders Of Rebel authorities
what truth there is in the story that it was
caused by Rebel poverty; whether the Rich
mond Government knew the condition of its
prisoners; what orders it issued, what inter
ference it declined. In appointing Commit
tee by vote of 100 to 20, the House has
taken the first active and sufficient step to
discover who is guilty, and to silence, it may
be- the ISLANDERS Of those who are not.
But the inquiry should not end here. Justice
and Policy alike dictate that it be made broad
enough to cover also our treatment of Rebel
prisoners. When the exchange of prisoners
was resumed, and the skeletons of Anderson
vile were delivered to our agents, Southern
papers responded to the indignation and horror
of the North by affirming that we too were
guilty of cruelty. We should like that matter
authortatively and finally settled. On each
side let the facts be pHblisked the whole truth
revealed, and whoever is found guilty OF inhu-
mainly TO prisoners on them let the laws be
enforced and the scorn Of the world be visited.

Some one who lately had the honor Of a
private conversation with Mr. Thaddeus Ste
vens, did HIM the honor of printing what pre-
tended to be true report of it, As Mr.. Ste
vens in this report was made to criticise his
fellow representatives rather savagely, he took
occasion yesterday to repudiate the remarks
attributed to him. 1t is certainly mean to
print private conversation, meaner to misrcp-
resent it, and in this case there was no need of
either. Mr.. Stevcns's severe remarks are pub
licly and boldly spoken; in his speeches there
are enough to make both eavesdropping and
invention unnecessary.

Mr.. Wilson, the Chairman of the House Ju-
dietary Committee, reported yesterday that the
Committee would not be ready to report on
Impeachment till after October 16-a statement
which was followed by resolution by Mr..
Boutwell,, that Congress should meet again
on that day. The debate on the resolution
is interesting OF the nine members of the
Committee, it appears that four believe that
the facts justify the Impeachment Of the Presi-
dent; five dissent, and seven hold that he
silOuld.be condemned and censured. Mr.. Bout
wells resolution was postponed.
