NEW BUILDINGS,

Our new postoffice, when completed,
promises to be one of the handsomest
buildings in the country. Already its pro-
portions have assumed something like a
definite shape, and in the course of two
years it will be occupied. 1t is built of
granite and forms a pleasant relief to
the eye which has wearied of the
endless succession of iron fronts, painted
white to initiate marble, which line both
sides of Broadway. a firm on the latter
thOrOughfare haveattempted to relieve the
mOnOtOny Of the street by the erection
of a building after the Moorish style of
architecture. All the known colors of the
rainbow are distributed at random over the
lofty facade of the edifice, and the result
is a gaudy hideous, nOndescript style
which attracts attention and receives gen.
eral condemnation. Iron structures are
all the rage just now, which would give
uniformity of appearance, if some regard
to aesthetics was better appreciated by
builders.

Understandings in General
From Our Own Correspondent
New YORK, April 8, 1872.
AS | have been discOursing a good deal,
of late, on the different features of the
stock market, may as well continue in
| that strain, especially, since it is a general
| topic of conversation. AS [ have said be-
| fore, the great evil of a sudden rise in the
| price of any one stock, is the effect it has
| in tempting outsiders to engage in specula-
| ton. Every man believes his luck to be
as good as his neighbors, and the tempta-
ton to make money without an effort is
very great. So when A hears that B has
made his thousands, he tries his hand and
if he is successful sees no reason why he
should stop; and SO it goes on, but if he
keeps at work, his losses are pretty sure to
counterbalance his gains. There is no use
''playing against the BANK to use gamb-
ling phrase, and when stock attains a
purely fictitious value it is the result
of combinations to effect some one
purpose. When that is accomplished
the stock goes back to its proper figure
and generally falls good deal faster than
it rises. Thus, Erie is really worth about
30 ; it has been as high as IS. This was eff
fected by the struggle between the Eng
liSh and American stockholders to obtain
a controlling interest. When either party
obtains all the stock that is necessary the
reaction will begin, and from present APP
pearances, it is likely to end in panic. |
The entire market is feverish, although |
strong. The brokers pocket their commits |
sions and that is all they care for. Speak /
ing of brokers reminds me of the firm of
Woodruff d Clafiin, the female brokers of
Broad street, more renowned for their free
love heresies than for the amount of bust
ness they do. Clafiin, the junior member
of the firm, lately made an address at the
Academy of Music on the subject nearest
her heart, if she has any, and the building 3
was literally packed. This does not speak
particularly we'll for our moral condition, |
which, by the way, never has been any, [
thing remarkable. The firm mentioned pub
lish a weekly journal, which is maintain
ed by species of blackmail. For instance, {
a member of the firm enters the office
of some broker who is known to have
some railroad securities for which he is
anxious to find market The peripatetic
agent announces that they intend sending
10000 copies of their next issue to Europe, Il
and that unless the broker advertises his
bonds, they intend to run them down."
The broker knows that foreigners are I'M
acquainted with the position of the jOurR
al in question in this country, and that its
opinions will find a certain amount of
credit among those whom he is most anX-
ious to reach, and so he puts in his adver
tisement. Of real business the firm has
none, but by such blaCkmailing, or what
ever you choose to call it, by lecturing,
etc., they contrive to make considerable
money i'll the course of the year.

MARRIAGE OF A BLONDE.

MARRIAGE OF a BLONDE.
The last episode in the theatrical world
is the marriage of pretty ballet-girl to a
wealthy young gentleman of this city.
The engagement was formed after very
short acquaintance, but where ballet
girl is concerned, you can see a good deal
of her i'll very short time. Our
er blonde performer has just re-
ceived a fortune of $4,000, so that
a legacy now makes her happy whose
former chief occupation was to show
the varied charms of the leg l see. "Lala
Rookie is the new burlesque which con-
tanned these two lucky maidens. While
OH the subject of amusements it may be
worth mentioning that the four leading
artists in the Parepa-ROsa opera troupe,
which opened short season at the acad-
envy last night, Madame Parepa, Miss Phil
lips, Mr.. Lantley and Mr.. Wachtel, receiv-
ed a perfect ovation on their first appear
ance. Critics used up the eulogistic adj
iectives in describing their performance,
and tickets were sold at fabulous prices.

500 for a seat, although it was generously
offered. Miss Leclercq is doing well at
Booths, and Barnun, the great, irrepress-
ible, S. F. with his sixth ward cannibals,
amuses the youngsters at the Rink.

THINGS IN GENERAL.
There is little or no probability of a con-
tlnuance. OF the Mayors trial. Greeley's
pronunclamentO is nothing more than
what was expected, although it sees strange
to see the veteran protectionist On re-
venue reform pletform. He is not writing

New York is dusty, dirty and discon-

LONDON, March 24.-It is stated on
the highest official authority that the
second note of Earl Granville to the
American Government with reference
to the Alabama claims, which was
forwarded to the United States by the
steamer Baltic, Friday last, is Of a
conciliatory character. The communi.
cation is of considerable length and
touches with great minuteness upon the
point at issue. While q friendly and
pacific tone is maintained throughout,
it at the same time intimates that the
British Government still finds itself
unable to submit the question Of the
admissibility Of TIE claims for conse-
queutial damages to the decision OF
arbtrators.
