The EVENT OF THE sEAsoE-GRAND
MILLINERY OPENING ATSWM. BACHA.
RAoH's-Owing to az over sight, we for.
got to allude to the leading event of this
week; namely, the great display Of NIL.
linery, at the establishment Of VIM. Bach.
arach, 100 Main street. This house had
grand opening Of all the leading styles
oil Paris and New York Millinery, on
Wednesday and Thursday, and certainly
showed some Of the incest trimmed Hats
and Bonnets ever shown before in this
city. The leading styles in Hats for this
season are rolling brims, not very high in
the crown. Among the many shaped,
we may enumerAte, the Orella, NAiad,
ITALIA, Rochelle. Sherwood, Norwood,
Lucca, Kellogg, and many others too un.
merous to mention. The Millinery De-
partment of this establishment is under
the supervision OF the Queen ofTrimmers,
Miss L. ]. Hodge, late with Lord & Nay.
lor, New York city, who is an artist in
her line, and shows exquisite taste In her
adaptation Of trimming to the Hat and
Bonnet, as desired. Among hemany Hats
and Bonnets trimmed by Miss Hodge
which were much admired, were:
No. /. A white Bridal Hat.
Shape Italia, Trimmed in Orange
Blossoms and long Tulle Veil. Another
ono much admired was No. 2, white
Cora Lynn, trimmed in GroS Grain Rib
bon, with rulings oil Black Brussels Net,
with a long Tulle Veil. The Flower on
this hat alone Is valued at five dollars.
We were also shown by the above lady q
White Bridal Bonnet, made Of Gros Grain
Silk and white Grape, trimmed with No.
20 White Gros Grain Ribbon, which was
greatly admired. Another Bonnet much
admired was No. 8, a Corn Color Grape
Bonnet, which all the ladies thought was
superb. To enumerate half tho styles
would be superfuous. We shall leave It
to the ladies to judge and see for them
selves. We would also call the attention
of all country merchants and dealers gen.
orally to the large stock Of Flowers, Rib
bons, Laces and Trimmings to be found
at this establishment, which, for extent
and low prices, cannot be cxCelled by any
house In the West. In fact, anything that
one may desire, either in the Millinery or
Notion Line, may be found at this house,
both wholesale and retail. To acCommo.
date the ladies, Mr.. Bscharach will con.
tinue the Millinery Opening today, and
we advise all tho ladies who desire to see
the fashions to call to 'day-they will agree
with us that the display is superb one.

Coon FRIDAY.-To.day Is Good Friday,

Coop FRIDAY.-To'day Is Good Friday
the anniversary Of the crucifxiOn Of the
Savior, so styled because Of the benefits
conferred on the world by his death. The
saxons named 1t "loDg Friday" because
Of the protracted religious services on that
day; and the Germans term it StilLsr Fret
tag, on account Of the solemn silence OBJ
served In the churches, or Char. FreItGgr
from an anliquated word sIgnifying peni-
tenCe. During the first two or three CEN
turIes Of Christianity it was called the
"pasch," because then Christ, the paschal
lamb, was slain. Its celebration has boon
attended with peculiar rites In most
churches sepulchre used to be construct
ed, and q cruciax was carried thither in
procession and deposited as in tomb. The
ciborium containing conseCrated walters
was placed in 1t. At Tours, as st. Gregory
Of that place writes, the wstchings were
kept in darkness until tho third hour Of
the night, when a small light appeared be-
fore the altar. Good Friday is the only
day,in the year on which macs is not cele
brated in the Roman Catholic Churches
A host is consecrated the day before fol
use on this day, and, having been placed
over night in repository generally cree
ted for tAe purpose in chapel or part o.
the Church, is carried to the main altal
and consumed by the priest. No conse
Grated wine is used, nor are the customary
lights, incense, and music employed. The
ceremony Of kissing the cross, sometime:
called "adoratlon Of the cross" is perform
cd by the clergy and people on theil
knees. In England this was anCiently
called Creeping to the cross" as appears
by the following extract from procla
nation in the reign Of Henry VIII: "OE
Good Friday 1t shall be declared hO"'
creeping of the crnosO oIgniIyeth an hum
blyug " Ourselie to Christie before the
crosse, and the kysssynge Of 1t a memorit
of our redemption made upon the crosse"
In some countries an image Of Judas
IsCariot was dressed up on this day and
subjected to every sort Of indignity. In
tho North OF England it Is customary to
eat on Good Friday herb puddlngs in
which q principal ingredient Is the pas
sion DOCK" which, in qualification, pro

tice is that Of serving "hot cross buns,

Organized Charity.

Everybody who wants to ca good -. the
poor will be glad to learn hat wise sand
earnest attempt ias he.n rp~de - 'organize
private charity and give it o practical appli-
cation. outside of the jurisdiction of the Com
missioners of Public Charities and Correc-
tion.. A committee of nine, OF whom Mr.
Theodore Roosevelt is chairman, and who
were appointed by the Bureau Of Charity,
recently accepted the task OF organizing the
charities of this city and Of compiling and
publishing charity directory. That CON-
mittee have already succeeded in establishing
o Bureau Of Charities at No. 66 Third avenue,
at the headquarters of the Commissioners Of
Public Charities. From this point they pro-
pose to give information upon all matters re-
lating to the proper channels for benevolence
in this city The committee request every
charitable association in this city, Of whateve,
name or nature, to give the full name and resi-
dence of every person receiving relief, and tc
give full and exact information in regard, Il
the title Of such association, the date of it,
foundation, its locality, the names Of it'
officers, the fact Of its being incorporated ol
not, it's object, the kind Of aid given. which
sex it supports or whether it supports
both, what age it favors in those whom
relieves, its determinations in regard h
nationality, religion or color, its accommoda
tions, the number Of its actual inmates, th
number Of families it has relieved at thei
homes, the amount Of relief given, the mum
Der OF friendless and homeless aided, the re
sources Of the institution, its annual receipt
and its annual expenditures. The object o
this committee is very noble one. Its ez
istence Is its own best advertisement, and th
strongest words we can speak in It's favor ar

his mind than his notion of his public duty, we
do not see but what he may at almost any time
get up disturbance sufficient to enable him to
call out troops and upset the government of
any State in the Union in the name of the law
And what would happen then? Could he
get representatives accepted in Congress from
State government of his own creation? This
would depend altogether upon the extent to
which he had been able to secure to his inter-
ests Congress of salary stealers by an adroit
use of the public plunder If the majority of
Legislative body values itself only at the sum
of the salary grab it is not beyond the reach
of an Executive who has the spending of our
present enormous estimates. But the case
then might fall into the Supreme Court-and
the issue there would probably depend upon
whether the Executive had previously secured
the place of Chief Justice for one of his Cabi-
net oficers-the one, say, that had conceived
all the legal operations for the onslaught in
the first place on the State government. This
is speculation that is somewhat suggestive
and, unfortunately-in these times Of enormous
corruption aud general official indifference to
everything but personal aggrandizement-th
possibilities it contemplates do not seem
remote The principles of the constitutional
argument on this subject are, of course, the
same, whoever and whatever may be the per-
son in whose case they apply; but, though it
does not change the principles, it must neces-
sarily provoke reflection on the moral degrada-
ton Of the subject that the endeavor to per-
vert constitutional right and propriety, in
partisan sense, is made in the interest of
negro sharper of the worst imaginable
stamp-clearly one of the most pitiful
creatures brought to the surface in our South
ern troublesome of the nameless reptiles cast
in to make thick and slab the internal cal
dron of reconstruction politics. 1t is bad
enough that the President should, for any
man or any party, sustain case against Con-
gress outside of the powers of his Office; but
that he should do this in the interest of such
a creature as the one before the Senate is
shameful and infamous

/, IrrNRss OF THE KAISER OF GERMANY. A
special despatch to the HERALD from
Berlin announces the illness Of the En-
peror William, which, to judge from the
efforts al Court to conceal its true extent
h,ust be Of an alarming character. A stroke
pf apoplexy at the verge Of eighty years Of age,
no matter how slight it may be, cannot fail
10 shake even the stalwart form of this re-
xnarksbie soldier monarch. The consequences
of his death at this time would likely be
serious, as the antpathy of the old Jencker
party, with whom the Grown Prince is
affiliated. to Bismarck is well known. A
change of policy in respect to the Church
question might be expected, and the unrelent-
ang course of the great statesman who has
guided the destinies Of the Empire under Its
present chief would probably give way to more
moderate views.
The New York herald., 1873-12-22

SOME RELIEF FOR THE SECRETARY OF THE
lTRsAsuRY seems to be coming from the foreign
tbondholdsrs of the loan Of 1868. According
ito the report from Washington the holders of
these bonds abroad have signifed their readi-
mess to accept the new five per cents in
exchange for what they hold of the loan OF
HS68. Ii this be so Mr.. Richardson will be
bble to hold corresponding amount Of gold
which he would have been called upon to pay
bat for the redemption Of this loan. Besides,
1t would be cheap transaction, no syndicate
being necessary to make the exchange and to
fAke profit out of it. The Secretary Of tn,
Treasury, after all, may not be in suct
strsightened circumstances as he seemed <
FEAR.
The New York herald., 1873-12-22

THE CHE1sTAAs PooR--The poor We have
always with ye. Yes; and that is the
reason we think we can attend to them
at any time. Consequently they seldom
get attended to at all. Yet there is some
thing particularly graceful in remembering
the poor at such an hour as this, when the
evergreen is adorning every parlor. 1t is
to be doubted whether large proportion Of
the gay shoppers who throng our stores and
streets realize how much wretchedness and
want abound Behind each of these dazzling
edifces, somewhere in the background, rises q
phantom-hke tenement house, thronged with
an impoverished host. Fraud, lies, violence,
imposture Of all kinds there may be; but at
the bottom we come to much human misery
unalleviated by hope. It would be well to
bear these facts in mind at a season when all
the world is supposed to be gay. There is no
fear that sensitiveness to poor peoples sor-
rows will interfere too much with our pleas
ures. Prosperous human beings are not con-
structed upon that principle. 1t will do no
gift-maker harm to temper his generosity with
charity, and, while he gives to those who are
able to make handsome return, to give even
more freely to those from whom he can expect
nothing.
