The hard hearts OF the Sorosisters not being
accessible to the touch of mortal man, have at
length been reached by the steam chef dBuyre
representative of masculinity, which steams
moves, and has its being at No. 551 Broadway.
They have been visiting it in a body, and de-
clare 1t to be superior to the original article.
suppose the reason is that 1t has no will of its
own, but is ready to do everything within its
capacity after being wound up.
A.. y. Stewnrt ms Aladdin.
Mr.. A. 7. Stewart has all life long been rub
bing the lamp of good luck, and his good
genius Success, is now building for him the new
city on Hampstead Plains. Men, horses, and
carts are at work there, and metropolis pro-
misses in time to evolve itself from the matrix of
mud at present visible there.
Cautious nIIss Kellogg.
The residence of Miss Clara Louise Kellogg Gan
American singer of some note in light operas),
on East Sixteenth street. has been broken into
and robbed. The family, however, were in
Boston ut the time, and the costly souvenirs
which the primd donna has had presented to
her were either carefully locked away upstairs
or slowed away in some bank vault, for all that
the burglars succeeded in carrying off with
them were some table linen and some spoons
and forks. The Detective Police Agency is
after the thieves and expresses itself as "san-
guine of success" which at any rate is an in
teresting and original declaration upon its part.
Mrs FreIixh's Adventures.
The adventures of Mrs. Freligh, the wife of
the manager of the Bowery Theatre, appear to
be of the morphine and mysterious order. About
a month ago she met gentleman who, at
late hour in the evening, was conducting her
home when she suddenly felt ill-so i'll that it
was necessary to conduct her to the nearest
available house. There something bibulous and
invigorating was applied, but the invigoration
appears to have been of that quality which
produces sleep, for Mrs Frelgh says she lost
consciousness, together with such jewels as she
had upon her person. The lady has since
spotted an individual whom she declares to be
the thief. In the agony Of mind she has since
suffered she has received the sympathy of every
body of similar experience. 1t only proves how
very dangerous it is for any well-conducted lady
to take strong drink, even as medicine, at a
late hour of the night in a house that is not her
own.
few days ago the members of the Seventh
Regiment held Il meeting at their armory in
reference to a series of communications that
have appeared from time to time in the public
newspapers, and the obvious intention of which
is to prejudice the public against that regiment.
One of its general orders is that no member is
permitted to attach the name of the regiment
in any form or manner to any communication
in any public journal upon any subject whatso-
ever All members are expressly forbidden to
use the name of the regiment as endorse
ment of their own views or in support of their
individual opinions. The disparagng articles
which have appeared purport to be written by a
member and are certainly yolative of the spirit
and letter of the general order above referred
IN he pf mpntnp therefore,
to request the public to regard all such articles
as unauthorized, and newspapers to refrain
from publishing them, unless the name Of n
responsible member be attached. 1t has been
complained that this step saVOrs strongly of
snobbery, but l do not think so; it is rather
an instance of dignifed and gentlemanly snub-
berry.
The TnmmRny.
The Tammany has been reopened and in ad-
dition to the brunette ballet troupe the public
is granted permission to drink Gd l6ituno with
out moving from its seats. You may imbibe
legs and lager in the same breath if you will,
and the pas of the Spanish fgowdntes draw as
well as the poultice of Spanish flies. Terps-
chore and Tobacco sit down together, so to
speak, and full of content with the spectacular
extravaganza, you smoke the calumet OF peace
and of pantomime.
The Girl with the Arsenic Complexion.
presume shells second cousin to the lady
with the belladonna eyes. She kept store in a
locality that shall be nameless; it is not hun
q, > miles away from Broadway, New York,
and MSs supposed to have an interesting heart
history. In fact, she was suspected of having
been crossed in love, but the cross didn't reach
her temper, for she was one of the sweetest
natured. smoothest-graiued temperaments that
ever glorifed this work-a-day world. So say her
friends. They add that she died of broken
heart of neglect and ill-treatment from worth
less husband to whom she had been only too
good. She had put the poetry and passion of her
life into her business and that is the reason why
her mourning millinery is full of the most
sweety melancholy things eXtant. Every bonnet
was a bijou not so much of silk and lace as of
sentiment and lackadaisy. So Esay her friends.
Her enemies declare that her alabaster skin was
the result of habitual arsenic eating, and that
she died of too heavy dose. The obscarely-
sroped guesses which one or two of the New
York papers got hold of enabled them to make
her from time to time the nnb of sensation sto-
ries. At length, however, the poor young thing
is at peace, her memory preserved in the hearts
of her friends as fragrant as u box of precious
ointment and even her enemies given no room
for darker suspicious than that she died under
singular circumstances. ALI BABA.
