NJ MIR. Beecher versus solomon.
Mr. Henry Ward Beecher has been lately using
his newspaper as means of propagatng his
1eas with reference to the beating of children.
He differs in some respects from Solomon, whose
principal theory believe was that the more you
spare the rod the more you spoil the child. The
Reverend Henry is of the opinion that as a rule
the candy-stick is the best stick for children,
and that lollipops should as far as possible, take
the place of wallopping. The very extreme
cases which, according to him, demand the
birch, are lying, cruelty, and stealing. Other
childish peccadilloes are merely part and parcel
of those moral ''sloppings over" of which he
confesses himself guilty sometimes, and which
may be dismissed as worthy of no stripes at all.
Absinthe Beverage
has grown into fashion within the past year and
q half, not only among men but women also.
Stop in at Delmonico's any time during the day,
and there shall you see the fairest of the fash
ionable slipping the green and murky poison,
the aromatic exhilarant, obviously with no
knowledge of its dangerous effect upon the
brain. Absinthe! Not very long ago it was
almost a novelty in saloons which ladies fire.

not to say elegant the beverage was known to
De Parlslan; ltS eHects were ueScrlDeu 10 DC as
enhancing as those of an opium cocktail or a
laudanum ''sling," and hence its immediate
adoption by the young and thoughtless of both
sexes, and that large class of bibulous Atheni-
ans who are forever seeking after some new
thing in the drinking line.
Taking the Veill
That is what the gentlemen expect to do with
the advancing spring and summer, what indeed
they have in numerous cases done already. The
wells are used in driving, and are found to be
absolutely necessary for the behoof of the male
complexion. Take my word for it, the New
York Adonis is just as careful of his SKIN as any
feminine beauty is. / don't know whether he
goes to the extent of purchasing Email de Paris
or of laying on anybody's "Bloom of Youth, -
but the impending fashion in wells proves that
his vanity is quite as susceptible as that of his
sister.

che could. No one will be surprised II March

Lester wnlIncIE
sets out this week upon his starring tour, under
the direction of Mr.. Stuart and Clifton Tayleure.
This s his first engagement of the kind, and the
erns offered are very advantageous. 1t has
often been wondered why Mr.. Wallack never
chose to shine as a star. One reason is because
he was quite contented with the quiet elegance
of his seasons at his own theatre, where he was
never subjected to the wear and tear which stars
so often suffer from; another reason is that he
never received so good an offer as that made
him by Tayleure and Stuart. Members of his
own company travel with him, and every gentle
man is expected to carry with him a dress suit
and one pair of light-colored kid gloves-so that
dinners at which Lester particularly shines, are
probably in the programme. The starring en-
gagement commences next Monday at the Bos-
ton Theatre, and will be continued through the
numerous small towns in the East, possibly ter
minating at Philadelphia.
The Baby Ball.
An entertainment of somewhat singular
nature took place on Saturday afternoon and
evening at Irving Hall. 1t was in fact baby
matinee ball, prolonged into an evening con-
cert, at which the guests were of every age be-
tween four and fourteen. Young New York
was there in all its glory. "Nobby" boys and
fair girls crowded the floor, and in a few cases
infants in arms might be seen in as much of a
ball-costume as swadding clothes would admit
Of 1t is a sad fact that cigars and whisky were
surreptiuously INDUCED in by some of the lads,
and that the whole affair was an amazing in
stance of precoclty.
SIgnor Bnrili,

singer in this city, Is shortly to depart for Cali

| who hopes to benefit by the milder and more
| equal climate there. Previous to going, how
| ever, he will give one of those full-dress con-
| certs which have been feature during his
| residence here, and in which the one necessity
is that the guests should be in full evening
| costume.

The Geld Panic Report.
Despdteh 10 the Associated Press.
General Garfield, chairman of the Committee
on Banking and Currency, made report on the
gold panic. 1t gives circumstancial accounts of
its history, and comes to the following conclu-
sion in view of the testimony
First, that the prominent bankers and mer-
chants who testified before the committee were
nearly unanimous in the opinion that there was
no sufficient reason for the expense of the Gold
Exchange and the Gold Exchange Bank: that
they were the source of measureless evil, and
ought to be destroyed.
