The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1869-08-13

1t is found in the persons of
Two MongoIIan Tradesmen,
hailing from Pel1n. Their names are Choy-
Chew and Sing-Man. Their appearance has
thus far been great success, although they re-
fuse to crafty the popular desire by appearing
at table. They take their meals in Celestial
in the privacy of their own apart
ments, preferring dinner of rice where lowell
ness is, to the stalled OK and publicity Herewith
Morse and DR.. Libby chaperon them, protecting
them from the expensive obseQuiousness of the
dusky licenses on the one hand, and the perfo-
rating stares of the hotel guests on the
other. Yesterday they called, it is said, to pay
their respects to the Chinese giant, Chang, who
is under engagement at Woods and with
whom they held friendly relations in China.
Do-day they intend doing the city-calling
upon Mr.. A. T. Stewart and learning the princi-
Piles upon which he amassed his millions. They
have just arrived from San Francisco and have
compiled cOpious notes from their observation
of the teeming commercial landscapes that were
unfolded before them. Both Mr.. Choy-Chew
and Mr.. Sing-Man were educated according to
the strictest principles of Confucius You will
please observe that have spelled the names of
these somewhat celebrated Celestials in the
same way throughout my entire mention of
them. In this respect / am infinitely superior to
most of the newspapers here, which commence
by introducing Mr.. Choy-Chew under
that title, follow him up as Mr.. Chang
Cho, and finally dismiss him as Mr.
Chow-Chow. These photographed caprices
vary to all possible degrees in all the news
papers taken together. You pays your money
and you takes your choice. Mr.. Choy-Chew,
in particular, is an accomplished speaker of
English. He has been living nearly a dozen
years in San Francisco, and is not in any manner
connected with the Coolie trade. His visit to
this city has no reference whatever to the en-
terprise of Mr. KoOpmanschaap. He has merely
come for the purpose of seeing ''how they do
these things in New York" Both he and his
friend, however, found it difficult to overcome
their prejudices against American culinary
tastes The charms of the chopstick outshine
those of the silver fork, and the savoriest bonnie
5oucte in the way of an artstically cooked bird
cannot console them for the loss of the palatable
nests of their native land.
Never was a greater mistake made than in
supposng that in summer time
All New York is Out Of Town.
Whatever of New York is out of town is more
than made amends for by the constant influx of
people from the West and South. This sum-
mer, in addition to the average quantity of
South&ners, unnumbered Cubans have made
their homes here. Instead of spreading them
selves at Niagara and Newport, Long Branch
and Lake George, Cape May and Atlantic City,
the Catskills and the Adirondacks they take
furnished houses and apartments in the incest
streets, and transform the suburbs into scenes of
fashion and enjoyment. After viewing the
crowded audiences present at all the large the
atres, it would be difficult to convince you that
nobody except commonplace people were in
town. Even the private and proscenium boxes
occasionally contain those rare specimens of
exotic feminine loveliness whose appearance
one generally looks for at any other
time than during the dogdays. Thus,
the other evening, young Arabian beauty, born
upon the borders of the Red Sea, whose young
gaze probably first rested upon Arabia Petrae,
who was educated in Persia, and who is destined
this winter to be the creatrice of great emotion"
among upper New York circles-this young
beauty occupied one of the lower proscenium
boxes at one of the first theatres in this city.
Oneindiyidualkept her company, darl-browed
neutrality-suspicious. man, whose eyes glis-
tened like black diamonds, and who looked as
though he might have been bronZed by desert
sun and commanded a company of savage
marauders. Both vehemently applauded the
performance until the diamonds with which

forth sparks. All of 'India's glowing gems"
shone upon them, and perhaps it will not be
irrelevant to say that 'Some Arabia breathed
from yonder boz"
Dion BOucicault's New Play,
entitled FOrmOSd, or the Railroad to RUin is to
be produced at Niblo's Garden the week after
next. 1t has never yet been produced either in
Europe or this country, and is indeed the latest
al,
Formosa of which the literary public has
hitherto been cognizant is the FOrmoSd of
George Psalmanazar, the clever impostor who
about one hundred and fifty years ago published
that fabulous account of the Island of Formosa
which so completely imposed upon the learned
critics of the age So far as audacity and fer
tility of invention go, Mr.. Bouccault is quite as
happy as his illustrious prototype, and the title
of his new piece is significant and suggestive.
The chief difficulty of Jarrett and Palmer has
been to find an actress willing to take the prin-
cipal Cor rather unpuncipled) female character,
who is an enchanting combination of perfdy
and frailty. These gentlemen have not yet
made their selection, although the play is an
nounced.
Among the
Advertisements of Schools
open for the forthcoming season is one by a
festive pedagogue, who thus expresses himself'
Dear Boys-Come back September a.
This touching adjuratiOn may seen by any one
who chooses to closely scrutinize the educational
advertisements in the New York newspapers. II
is from the same individual who last year pub
lished, under the same head:-"Dear Boys
; Trouble commences September H." He has an
academy at Flushing, and is said to possess a
charming genius for understanding the ins and
