Broadway, totally unobserved, and as any ordinary
citizen would be likely to do, until he reached the
hotel where he entered so quietly and unobtrusiyey
that hardly more than one or two Of the principal
officials of the place knew who was about 10 become
the guest OF the house. The portion OF the hotei as
signed the General and Mrs. Grant was quiet COR

attract attention. Generals Dent and Badeaa occu-

that General Grant would stop at the Metropoli-

TO New York, and, consequently, there was

them Mr.. Bergen, Of the Assembly, has intro
duced a bill providing that 1T shall be lawful
for any corporations operating street railroads
to enter any street without the consent Of the

NEW YuaK THEATRE.

Bulwer's great play Of "Richelieu, or the Conspir
acy.u was presented last evening at this establish
ment with Mr. Mexican Buchanan sustaining the
r,e OF the crafty duke and Miss Virginia Buchanan
that OF the virtuous and loving Julie de Mauprat.
Though not quite filing the house the audience new
ertheess was decidedly apprecatve, making up In
enthusiasm what 1t lacked In numbers. Considering
the resources Of the establishment the piece was
well placed upon the stage, and the distribution OF
characters was well made. Mr.. Bucnanans mper-
sonation OF the Cardinal statesman was at times
exceedipgly good, but at others little too
robusiuous for the old and infrm duke.
as we have heretofore been taught to re-
gard him. His reading, however, was excel
lent and gave unmistakable evidences of re-
search and study. Miss virginia Buchanan made
n most ovabe julie and did full justice TO the part
allotted her Her rendition Of the character IN the
third and nth acts was superb, and won for her the
deserved applause OF the entire house. Mr.. Il. w.
watson as Baradas, was capital intriguing villain,
Int Mr.. Leayock who enacted the part OF Adrian de
Mauprat spoiled his lines oy indulging too much in
40 the rolling OF his heavy RS and as thereby often
nroyokng the audience even IN the gravest parts OF
ma delivery to uncomfortable nts OF laughter. Upon
the whole, however, the performance last evening
was creditabe as well as enjoyable, and will be
again repeated with the same cast this evening.

Mrs. Lincoin.

It cannot be denied that the proverbial
charge of ingratimde on the part of republics
has been shamefully verified in the very shabby
treatment by the radicals in Congress of the
widow of the lamented martyr Lincoln. Her
appeal for meagre pittance of five thousand
dollars has been virtually rejected by it's refer
ence to committee which has no authority
to act upon it. This is one of the meanest
things OF which even these radicals have been
guilty. Mrs. Lincoln did special honor to the
White House by being, without exception the
best dressed woman who ever presided at the
Presidential table. She sacrificed her own
modest preferences for what Horace describes
as the path of an unnoticed life, and spared
no trouble or expense to represent" in
becoming manner the exalted station to
which, with her husband, she had been raised
by the national will. Surely this was one OF
the high qualifications required by her position.
The distinction won by the Empress Eugene
as the most elegantly dressed woman in
Europe has been of no slight force in sustain
ing the Napoleonic dynasty, and the author of
<'Sartor Resartus" would not contradict the
assertion that dress has its influence in a
republican no less than in an imperial court
After all, what is the pitiful sum of five thou
sand dollars as a yearly pension to the
widow Of 9 President Of the United
States, whose life was sacrificed in
his countrys SERVICE" in comparison
with the millions of dollars annually wasted by
Congress upon railway and mail contractors
and other agents of innumerable infamous
Sjobs" Why should three judges and arbi-
traitors in SLAYER cases which never came up
for adjudication be lavishly provided with
means for specializing in Wall street, while the
widow of the late President Lincoln is deprived
of even the balance Of the salary her husband
would have received for the four years term to
which he was elected had he not persisted at
the hands Of an assassin An appropriation
of round sum of one hundred thousand dol
lars to the widow of the late President would
have been but graceful recognition of the
claims of Abraham Lincoln upon the gratitude
Of the nation. congressman ought to be
ashamed Of themselves for the niggardly self
ishness with which they have delayed re-

to them by Mrs. Lincoln.
