Musical and Dramatic Notes.


The death of NJ Desire, the celebrated comedian
OF the French stage, removes an actor who has
graced the Partisan theatre since 1851 He eXcelcd
in boude parts.
Herr Joseph Forster has composed, for the
Opera Comlque in Venice, romantic comic opera
called zines; or the Queens Pilgrimage" in which
Miss Minnie Hauck will be the prima donna.
Signor Savn appears tonight IN the tragedy OF
III Gladiatoe.n The scene OF the play is laid in
Rome, in the town where Christians were mar
tyred in the circus for the pleasure OF the pagan
multitude. Niger, Ihracan slave; the
Empress Faustna, a Christian girl slave
Neodamia, and Flavian noble Roman, are
the principal characters. Niger had been pre-
eminent among the gladiators; but his wife hav-
ing been sacrificed to incline the gods to The
unnatural desires OF Faustna, he had, as part
ayengement OF the crime, burned the imperial
palace. He had escaped to Egypt with his daugh-
ter, who was stolen from him there. He returns to
Rome and meets Faustina in the cataccmbs.
Her wishes and the promises OF the sor-
ceress had been realized. son had been
born whose fate, an oracle declared, is linked with
that OF the child OF the sacrificed slave. Faustina
desiring to find and care for Nger's child, urges
the Gladiator to a continued search Tor his
daughter. Finally, after much prolix plotting, the
dramatist discovers Neodamia, the slave-gir to be
the lost child. She is about to be slain in the
arena by Niger, when he notices
mark on her shoulder, and knowing her
from this as his own daughter he pleads to the
people for her release But they are obdurate.
The Empress maternal love rising over her hatred
for Neodamia, who had taken from her the love OF
Favian she declares that the fate OF the girl must
not be decided until the morrow She endeavors to
procure the escape OF Neodamla, Flavian, who had
been imprisoned as Christian, and the Gladiator
in the night. But the people, led on by an enraged
priest OF Juno, revolt clamor for Christian blood,
and finally, after killing the Emperor and destroy
ing his palace, they attack the prison. AS they
enter where Niger and his daughter are awaiting
them, the Gladiator kills Neodamia, to preserve
her from the mob, and then himself.

New SroKEs IN THE OLD HUD.-The numer-
ical strength of the city of Boston has been
increased by the annexation of the towns of
Charlestown, Brighton and West Roxbury.
The population of the city may now reach
somewhere near three hundred thousand-a
very creditable figure for provincial city.
BY these annexations the Club can now
boast Of having within her limits the ever-to-
be-glorifed shaft on Bunker Hill, to say
nothing Of the delectable cattle pens of
Brighton.

the serious charges made against the Comp
troller. in whose leading strings he has been
hitherto supposed to be driven.
If the investigation is to be made, and
made impartially, we invite the Mayor to
further inquire whether the retainer given by
the Comptroller last Saturday to this same
special counsel to appear on behalf of the city
in the mandamus cases before Judge Barrett
was authorized by the Corporation Counsel,
and whether the assignment of such special
counsel to the Comptrollers department has
been made in accordance with the provisions
Of the charter-by the law officer Of the city gov
ernment. If, as we are informed, the Corpo-
ration Counsel has made no such assignment,
but, on the contrary, has advised the Comp
troller that the city has no good defence to
the suits in which mandamuses were applied
for before Judge Barrett, then Mr.. Green has
again clearly violated the provision of the law
to which we have referred; has done SO in
obstinate defiance Of the opinion Of the legal
adviser Of the Corporation and at needless
waste of the public money, and should be at
once removed from Office.

HARTFORD VICTORIOUS. The popular vote
of Connecticut (near six thousand majority
in favor of Hartford as the State capital, in
stead Of dividing the honors with New Haven,
as heretofore, is a great victory for Hartford,
and the city should do something as testi-
monial of its appreciation of the popular ver-
dict. A handsome park would be good idea,
and the example would be good ons to all
our other State capitals that have not adopted
this most beautiful and valuable Of all modern
CITY improvements.

The DESTRUCTIVE FIRE in our neighboring
village Of Mount Vernon yesterday was owing
mainly to the absence of water. They had
fremen on the ground in time, but they had
no water. Experience is the mother of wis

instructions in neglecting them too long.

TUE COTTON EXCHANGE.

The Memphis Cotton Exchange meets
to-day at three pm. in the commodiou'
and accessible rooms newly fitted up at
the corner of Madison and Front streets,
The system Of keeping the books and
current records Of the season on bulletin
boards for the ase Of the members is adj
mirable, being an Improvement OF the
worthy Secretary upon the systems OF
other cities where cotton exchanges have
been in existence many years. II this
institution is not a great convenience to
cotton men, and benefit to Memphis
as cotton market, then we are greatly
mistaken. One great drawback to our
CITY has been want of cooperation and
hearty combined effort in public eRier-
prises. Every man has gone on his own
hook. Our strength has been wasted or
expended by pulling in opposite diree-
lions. The Cotton Exchange, we hope,
will so happily illustrate the advantages
of union aud discipline that no such
cause of complaint can ever again ex-
list. Among other matters for consid-
Grafton, It is expected that the charges
made by papers in the country, affecting
some of our commission merchants, will
receive attention. If So the result will
be made known in due time. These are
progressive times. As an evidence most
tangible is the successful organization
of the Cotton Exchange, which could
not be effected when the effort was made
two or three years ago. Those who op
posed it then we're doubtless acting in
good faith, but they have, as far as we
know. modified their views, and support
the institution with will. Let us hope
that Memphis will be united in all great
undertakings as well as sympathy, and
that she will soon replace the weeds of
her calamities with the vesture of pros
perity, and that she viii long reign

NEW YORK.


NEw YoRx, December 27.-Henry G
Campbell, book publisher Of this city
who disappeared in September last
being deiaulter to the extent Of about
$4,000, was brought here by detectives
from Indianapolis yesterday, where he
had been tracked and captured. He
was committed to the Tombs, charged
with grand larceny, forgery and embez
element
The police and sheriff deputies are
still At fault as to the whereabouts OF
Genet and associates.
The Times Paris correspondent, in
giving an account Of the trial and SEN
tence o. Bazaine, says: "The sentence
was death, military degradation in the
Legion Of Honor, and the costs of the
whole process of trial This latter
would take thirty thousand francs, every
sou Bazaine has in the world, and leaves
his wife and three children destitute.
When the sentence was passed Bazaine
was not present. His counsel, Lochoud,
brought him the news privately, and the
prosecutor, with file Of soldiers, came
soon after and read it to Bazaine. Ba-
zaine desired 20 be shot Immediately IL
they wanted his life. He was very
calm, while the others we're agitated.
He asked that his son be permitted
to be with him the whole day after the
sentence, which was granted, as they
feared he might commit suicide. Ba
zaine's wife acted heroically. When
told Ler husband might escape death by
military degradation, she exclaimed:
Never He would never consent to
that If you ever propose it l shall
soon be widow" In this anticipation
she prepared for the last interview with
him preparatory to entering convent.
When the sentence was announced to
President Mcmahon he was at the head |
Of large dinner party, he exclaimed
/" Condemned to DEATH" and turned very
pale and sank into chair, letting his
head fall into his hands. On being in
formed that the court had signed unan-
nous appeal for mercy, he charged them
With having thrown all the responsibility
IN him He declared that fear of un.
would not deter him from
lsing bis right of mercy. He treated
Due d Aumale coldly. The Bishop of
Orleans, by an interview, and Theirs by
/ letter, both urged him to be merciful.
These and other influences, besides his
,wn inelinations, brought about the
Of Bazaine's sentence to
imple exile.

IouRNALIsrIC ENTERpRIsE.

A lively speck Of newspaper war has
been going on for several days in st.
Louis. The Globe is new paper,
started something over year ago
with large capital and lots Of
journalistic talent. Talent is always
available upon such occasions. 1t was
and is an extreme administration pa
per- intended to supplant the Democrat
in the affections Of the party. As a
newspaper the Globe is decidedly lively,
but it did not belong to the Associated
Press, and could only get telegraphic
news as specials at an enormous ex-
pense. But the enterprise of the Globe
was equal to the emergency. An ope-
rator in the Western Union Telegraph
Office named E. N. Losey was employed
to steal the regular dispatches, which he
did successfully for some time. But he
was finally detected few days ago and
promptly discharged. Whether the
Globe offered him a position on its staff
or not we have failed to ascertain. The
Globe folks have caught it hot and heavy
for such dsreputable practices, and jus;
now have hard road to travel. They
realize that the wicked stand in slip
perry places" but do not know how long
they can hold out.
