WOman's Suffrage Meeting
was addressed yesterday afternoon by Mr.. Peck,
edltor-n-chief OF the New Haven journal and
Courier, who had came all the way from New Haven
for that purpose. By-the-way, there Ia O Woman's
Suffrage call out, to which are appended eighty
seven names. These names are generally very well
known to the community but have not hitherto been
prominently identified with the suffrage question The
name OF George William Curtis heads the New York
representatives Among the other signatures are
those OF many men and women well known in New
York society but not familiar to the public az large
presume they will not commit themselves by ex-
pressing any violent opinions at present one way
the other.
Pere Hyacinthe and His Interviewers.
For three successive sdays have made business
engagement to meet o gentleman, one Of the most
accomplished and cultured OF the young newspaper
men. He has broken the engagement each time.
Upon being reproached for his per1dy his invarlabe
answer has been, 81 have been trying % interview
Father Hyacinthe." Poor thing! l mean Father
Hyacnthe, not the youthful editor. The priest has
been badgered ever since his arrival at the Fifth
Avenue HOtei. He cannot stir out OF his room or
appear upon the street without being surrounded
II he were a "What-is-it?" or King Theodore
come TO life again, he could not create
more profound sensation. He has ridden
along Green street. and been aflicted with mild sur
prise upon being made acquainted with the charac-
ter OF its feminine inhabitants; he came near visit
ing the Gold Room, but his heart failed him when he
found himself in Wall street; the principal theatres
have sent him invitations, but these hitherto
he has failed to use. Rvery newspaper containing
any account of him claims that It's account Is eX-
elusive, aud that its reporter was the only one
honored with an interview. But the hardest thing
OF all for the reporters to endure is the conduct Of
their own newspapers in regard to them. 1t must
be dreary work to find oneself abused In one part OF
the newspaper for the very work one has performed
so faithfully and well in another part. It must
be hard lines to recelv orders from the city
editor not to fail to interview the Father,
upon the peril Of being discharged, and then to
behold ones best efforts brilliantly sneered at in the
editorial columns the next morning. And yet this
Is the dazzling and ungrateful policy which some OF
the newspapers here have been pursuing. The
Father, however, has been uniformly courteous In
his reSlssi to be bored. He has allowed 1t to be
Distinctly understood that he did not come here to
be mace an exhibition of, and at the same time he
has caused ust2t understanding by behavior per-
y tecty ufeptVehble. He is none the less gentle
iynan Tor Delng Ve4 much of a monk. Fifth avenue

were positively dying for some
7 thing ana Father Hyacinthe a morsel which
they all gOObed after. The corridors are thrOnged
with fair pentents ready TO confess sins they were
never guilty OF, provided the confession might be
poured into the Fathers The good gentle
man, however, keeps up a good appetite and good

permanent, he has not suffered as much as weaker
man would have DONE This morning a deputaton
of evangelical clergy of Boston are expected to
rive in this city for the purpose of rendering him
reception to the Hub. The clergy generally in New
York are favorably disposed towards him, because,
they say, he represents in himself great principle
OF ecclesiastical liberty, and they will next Sunday
probably call attention to his antecedents great
Catholic priest and an opponent of the Ecumenical
Council.

Italian Opera.
NJ Maretzek having made enough bricks down at
Staten Island to satisfy him for the present an
nounces q season of Italian opera Chief among the
artists are Miss Kellogg, Madame Carolina de Briol,
Miss Treuer, Mrs. Lucy Escott, (who has been for
some years in Australia), Miss Jenny Landsmann,
Madame Cellini Sgnor Lefranc, tenor; Signor Mas
simiani, Ronconi, and Barlll, Few of these names
YOU win perceive, are distinguished, and some OF
them have never been heard OF here at all. Maret-
zeks great card, however, is Carotta Patti. l trust
there Is no indelicacy In saying that most
of the interest felt in PATHS appearance
is due to the curiosity to how she
will remedy the defect which has hitherto confined
her to the concert-stage. Some years ago, if re-
collect Alright, she had boot OF peculiar make
manufactured expressly for her, so that her lame
ness might be concealed and au opportunity given
her OF appearing as the sportiye and tender
Gamma The boot was worm but the limp could
not be completely disguised, and the Gamma" OF
that evening was painful one for the audience.
With respect to voice, Carlotta Patti will be more of
success than any singer that we have had for
many years. 1t is scarcely fair to compare other
eminent singers with her, for her gift might be
called beautiful monstroslty, If such a thing
can be conceived of as existing. 1t
Is almost phenomenal in its range and
volume, and though she cannot altogether escape
the charge OF being tricky songstress her tricks
are better than most cantatrice's solemnities.
Among the operas to be produced during the forth
coming season are Hamlet, La C0pteSs0 d ARlali,
Pepolet, and II Flauto MagicO.
