The Poor Player at the Gate.

After the death of George Holland,
the noted actor, committee of actors
called upon the Rev. DIR. Sabine, rector
of an Episcopal church in New York,
His reply, declining to accede to their
request, because of the profession of the
deceased, was accompanied with a re-
commentator to apply at 'sthe little
church around the corner, 1.-THE Rev.
Houghton's where they are in the hab-
it of doing such things" The applica-
ton to Dr. Houghton was successful,
and the Doctor was at once enshrined in
the heart of every actor in the country,
and his church from being little" one
promises to become ofone the largest and
most popular religious institutions in
New York. The following poem by
George Eandenhoff, was read at the
Holland testimonial at the Academy of
music, on Saturday, the oath inst:

Shall count before professions,
And humble virtues, clad in weeds,
Shall rank DER rich possessions.
The Lord of love- the worlds great Light,
Made Publicans his care,
And Pharisees alone demurred
That such His gifts should share.
But still He held His gracious way.

Nor ever babe one sinner seek

The woman that in sin Zen,
Bowed down with guilt and shame,

His mercy would atone her.

The TESTIMONY before the inquest over
the Ferry boat. disaster in New York, goes to
prove that the responsibility rests principally
upon the company who must have known
that they were using rotten boiler and en-
ploying an engeneer who confessed that he
could not read and showed utter ignorance of
the theory of the complicated machinery he
was using, and secondly upon the careless
system of inspecting boilers and examining
ENGINEERS. The guilty parties, if that guilt is
only carelessness, should be punished to the
extent OF the law. The telegraph informs us
that number of clergymen petitioned Mayor
Hall to appoint day of fasting and pray
er IN view of the "visitations of Providence. %
IL strikes us that calling this tragedy, result
ing from criminal carelessness and averice
visitation OF Providence, is an act of blaspbe-
my and blind attempt to shift the responi.
blity from the real criminals, If the New
York City government is to be included in
this category of providential visitations, there
Is also the same reason to object, for the his
tory OF this organized outrage from its begin
ming to the present, proves it to be the work
of men who know nothing of right or truth or
justice. Doubtless it is just cause for hui
initiation and after good men have done ey.
erythng in their power to overthrow it, fast
ing and prayer may be invoked to cast out
the wickedness and corruption: but that even
would be most effective when when done by
the ruffians of the ring within the prison
walls.

The MARGINAL WAY.-It is a matter of
congratulation that a movement has been
made towards an early construction of broad
railroad and carriage way from the northern
border OF the city on Back Cove around Tur-
Keys bridge to the wharves and deep water of
the front harbor. She ultimate necessity of
this thoroughfare was confessed long ago. and
IL Is evident that the time has come for an i'm
mediate building of part of the way. at least
SO far as it is asked for by the directors of tho
Portland and Rochester railroad. Mesors
Lynch and Deane showed the CITY Counci,
last night in very convincing manner tho
advantages that will Immediately enure to the
city in the opening of the road, or at least of
doing so much in that direction as to give the
railroads bed on which to lay its rails for the
desired connections. Portland has invested
much in railroads as corporation, and citi-
zens money has been literally given TO form

The Boston Advertiser of July 9th has, in
its financial column the following statement
concerning one of the leading railroad enter
prises now under construction. Referring to
Southern securities, as class, the editor says /:
"The general decentralization of Southern
business consequent upon the war, and the
lack of the means and energy by the aid of
which the North SO rapidly RECEIVERS from any
temporary depression, have combined to give
the preference to new industrial enterprises at
the West rather than at the South. But that
the South presents splendid openings for
Northern capital there has never been auy
doubt among Shrewd business men, and many
Northern. capitalists are now busy in develop
ing the enormous natural advantages of the
st uthwestern States of Louis ana and Texas
They are reviving plantations; reclaiming
waste lands; improving water powers; and
above all, utilizing the lessons Of the West by
building railroads where they are demanded
by The wants of the rapidly increasing pUpula-
tlen and production. Such enterprises are
Soathern by location, but Northern in capital
in energy and in management, and they are
located at the South because their projectors
have seen that that was the most promising
field for the employment of capital. One of
the foremost of these undertakings is the
building of the New Orleans, Mobile and Tex.
as Railroad, from Mobile through the metrOp-
oils of the South to the railroad center of Tex
as. Into this work many of the leading most
honored capitalists OF Boston aud New
York have put nearly ten millions of
dollars of their own funds, because they be-
lieved that nowhere else in this country W IS
there so profitable a return promised for their
outlay. All of this large (and very Unusually
expenditure of private means before asking
any money from the public, is protection to
the bonds which the company now offer for
sale, as all interest liabilities must be met be-
tore any dividends can go to the stockholders.
Such Southern security as this seems to
be worth the attention of those having funds
for Investment"
The bonds especially noted above, have also
been endorsed by many other leading financial
authorities, as among the very safest and most
profitable in the market. 1t will be seen by

THE FINANCES OF NEW YORK CIrY.-A
special to the Boston Advertiser from New
York says THE statement of the city and
county finances which was demanded by the
Times and promised some time ago appeared
Friday evening, aud was published in several
papers Saturday. The indications are that the
accounts have been cooked to suit the emer-
gency, and are very far from correct. An at
tempt has been MADE to dimish the city debt by
charging many large deficiencies to the county.
Several issues of bonds belonging to the city
are charged to the county, and some items that
made disagreeable appearance in the report
Published by the Times are Jumped in such a
way as to make them less offensive The &C.
counts do not materially differ from those pub.
lished by the Times, except that they are much
more unique and contain no specifications of
expenses. The general impression is that the

by the publication. There is some alarm among
savings banks and other holders of city bonds,
growing out of the report that there has been
large fraudulent issue, and there are heavy
amounts due that do not appear on the books
of the city treasurer. One financier who has
watched city affairs closely, says he believes
there has been an over-issue of several mil
lions, and predicts run upon the savings
banks holding city bonds as securities. Public
distrust IN the present city government is
steadily Increasing and the desire for change
grows rapidly.
