heard all the singers above enumerated, but
we have heard Mrs. Wood, Jenny Lind, Sontag,
and Grisi. Without trying to remember many
more, there is one who, in the galaxy, must
not be overlooked. All who had the pleasure
of listening to the late charming, and in some
rare characters the almost as we were going to
say, unequalled Angelina Bosio, will agree with
us in believing that long time may elapse
before another will apear qualified to take her
place. We do not believe the musical world
was ever 30 startled since the death Of Mali
bran as when it was announced that she was
dead. She died in st. Petersburg in 1853,
after having created a sensation in Paris and
London, such as was seldom witnessed. Like
Adelina Patti, she first succeeded in this coun-
try, for it was only after her return from Anne
RIGA that she succeeded in winning her proud
position on the American stage. As lovers
OF song, as sons of the soil on which the fair
PATHS first triumphs were won, we most
heartily rejoice both at her success pecuniarily
and, we may hope, matrimonially, for not
having heard of her husband except as being
attached to the French Court, we must hope
that it will prove as happy as so consummate
an artist deserves to be.

Noblemen are plenty, good soprani and tenori

A desperate fight occurred on Second street

1t seems that as Lieutenant X. Priest of the
Third District Police, in company with Detective
Jack GALLAGHER, aud Policemen Joseph Batman
aud Pat McGrath, were leaving the First street
station, having gone off duty, they discovered a
suspicious looking individual sitting at the back
door OF grocery on Second street, near the
corner OF Green. Supposing him to be drunk,
Gallagher walked up to him and Degant 70 make
the usual inquiries, and the fellow not giving a
satisfactory enswer, the officer proceeded to
arrest him. To the astonishment OF the officers,
the man suddenly jumped to his feet and struck
Gallagher down: but Gallagher was up again In
an instant, and this time the stranger went to
the earth. Getting pp, however he let into Gal

MR. STEVENS GENERosITY.-There Is an in
cident of the late Tnaddeus Stevens, which
first appeared in a biography of him in THE
EVENING TELEGRAPH on Wednesday last,
and which has been widely copied into many
of our exchanges. The auecjote called for th
number of communications. CO some of which we
published. So far the facts of the case, though
substantially correctly stated, are not exact
We give them as they were told us by the gen.
tleman who of all others, is best qualified to
know the precise truth. After Mr.. Stevens
speech in favor of the school bill there appeared
a little poem in a country paper, highly eulo-
glstic of his course, and which was without fiat
tery and of great literary ability. Judge Ellis
Lewis, a personal friend, though political
opponent OF Mr.. Stevens, came across a copy OF
1t, and showed 1t to Mr.. Stevens That gentle-
man expressed great pleasure and never inti-
mated to the Judge but that he then saw 1t for
the first time "What shall do for her?" asked
Mr.. Stevens; "I don't know her." "Give her q
book or a farm" said the Judge, laughing
"Well," said Mr.. Stevens, ''she don't want q
book. but she may want farm. Judge find
her out and buy her one Draw on me for the
money" what is the limit?" asked the Judge.
Nothing at all, so that she gets what she
wants." replied Mr.. Stevens. Judge Lewis,
full OF the milk of human kindness, sought the
lady out, and found that she was living on farm
which had been sold tosatisfy ajudgment against
her husband, worthless sort OF a customer.
and that she would be turned out OF her home
in q month The farm, had been bought by
Judge Anson " Parsons, then practising
lawyer. On finding the lady Judge Lewis dis
covered for the first time, that Mr.. Stevens had
already sent her $780, The Judge told the lady
TO write to MIR. Parsons, and tell him her condf
tion, and he, the Judge, would call and see him.
She did as directed, and when Judge Lewis
called, the lawyer, moved by the note just re-
ceived, professed his willingness to sell back
the farm II the judgment Of his client would
be paid off,
Judge Lewis drew up the deed in the office,
had 1t signed, and gave draft on Mr. Stevens
for the money. 1t was duly honered. Years
afterwards, Judge Lewis found the lady In indi-
gent circumstances, in Wisconsin, and out OF
his own good feeling and warm heart, pur-
chased some land there, and gave her life
estate on 1t, to prevent 1t being sacrificed by
her husband. AS she is now dead, it has re-
verted to him. These little incidents, hidden
for years, show the eminent generosity of Mr.
Stevens, and of his brother In good feeling, II
not in political lite, Judge Ellis Lewis.

A AWAsHNGToN TBIBGRAM announces that the
United States Government will soon establish
a protectorate over Mexico, receiving in ex-
change for the privilege of controlling that
country cession of territory already owned
by American speculators, for which, it is pro-
bable, good round sum would be- demanded.
This is one of the many schemes devised to
plunder the treasury, and to increase the
heavy burdens imposed upon the people.
Practically it would benefit only the venal
politicians of the two countries, and lead to
unnecessary and expensive complications. 1t
will be infinitely more profitable for the nation
to expend its energies in developing the varied
resources of the vast expause of territory it
now possesses than to seek extension of boun-
daries at this period. Opportunity will never
be wanting when we really need more land, to
make the necessary acquisitions, but now the
prime necessity is to improve the districts
already partially occupied, and to reduce ex-
penditures to the lowest possible standard.

THE FUNERAL OF Mr.. STEvENs.-To. day the
remains of Thaddeus Stevens were consigned
to their last resting place, followed by null
titude Of his fellow citizens. From all portions
of the State came the throng to do him honor.
Philadelphians were well represented at the
grave of the "great Commoner." Her Mayor
and City Councils, a committee of the Union
League, a committee of fifty of the Republican
Invincibles, a committee ofthe Banneker Insti
tute, deputation of the School Boards, and
vast crowd of private citizens. The scene
cannot fail to be impressive and solemn. They
are well calculated to excite the young of
Pennsylvania to rival and initiate the dauntless
courage, with the energy and indomitable
will of Mr.. Stevens. To-day the last of his
mortality is hidden from the public view, but
his deeds live after him. His reconstruction
measures and his great championship of Com
mon Schools cannot die. So long as education
and equal rights are held dear, SO long will we
be enabled to say, che being dead yet
speaketh."

A Plot and an Arrest.
correspondent of the Buffalo Express, writ.
ing from Hornesvle says: The recent coDda-
grafton which consumed so large a portion Of
the buildings on Main street, has been traced to
q very curious cause. A young man (ot the fast
order, of course became somewhat involved in
bis business. He had stock of goods in
rented store, and so he went to lawyer for
advice-a very safe place of resort. This "mem-
her of the bar,n true to the instincts of his pro-
fession, gave the much needed counsel. But
how unlike the regular practice" iu character.
He hnted that If the store would only by some
fortunate accident take fire and burn down, his
client would then be able to get his insurance
money, pay hs debts, and save his reputation.
This was all. OF course 1t was "clear case"
IN very short time from this the terrible con-
flagraiion occurred, and IL was found TO have
originated in the store of the lawyers Client
Sufficient evidences Of guilt have come to light
to indicate plot, aud the lawyer and his unfor-
tunate client are in Jail awaiting examination
