man dressed as Quaker walked up the
aisle, entered a pew, and stood bolt up

by his conscience to do so, but had no
objection to having somebody else re-
move it. lie proved to be John Hopkins,

THE REGATTA.

The Board of Delegates of the Regatta AS
ISOLATION met last night over "The Victory, "
on Common street, near Carondelet. All the
clubs represented.
The meeting was called to order by the
chairman, W. Fl. Manning. Esq, who stated
that the meeting was for the purpose of re-
ceiving the report of the Committee of Ar
rangements.
Mr.. J. B. Mcconnell, chairman of the COM
mittee, said he had nothing to report that he
had not heard from the subcommittee re-
garding the contributions of the railroad and
the hotel proprietors.
Mr.. Bunce. as a member of the sub-com :
mittee, said that they had submitted their re-
port at the last meeting; that the committee
had not collected any money on the contribu-
tors, as they had not been authorized to do it
| by the Committee of Arrangements.
Mr.. Gallagher wanted to know by what
authority the present meeting was called.
Mr.. Manning stated that he had called it at
the request of Mr.. Belknap and other dele
gates.
| Mr. Gallagher raised this point, that in &C.
cordance with the resolution adopted at the
meeting over Hawkins's saloon, the chairman
VI tu6 COuulGlt0 VI arrangements WAS luc
only one authorized to request the chairman
to call meeting.
Mr.. Manning called for the reading of the
minutes of the previous meeting, the one
subsequent to the meeting over Hawkins's.
The minutes were read and they declared
the meeting had adjourned subject to call.
| The words subject to call were stricken
ont, and the minutes thus amended were
adopted.
Mr.. Manning thereupon declared "the
present meeting" adjourned.
Objections were raised and Mr.. Manning
withdrew his declaration to allow discussion.
1t was then decided that the position as
sumed by Mr.. Manning was correct, and after
Mr. John Fitzpatrick, representing the Per-
severance Club, and Mr. j. V. Guillotte, re-
presentining the Aspinwall Club, had been
appointed members of the Committee OF
Arrangements, the meeting adjourned.

Long Lost Property Recovered.

During the month of January last noto
rious negro thief, by name, Bob Butler, was
arrested by detectives Hennessy, Devereauz
and Pierson, at the corner of Rampant and
Lafayette streets. When arrested, valuable
overcoat was found in his possession, which
was supposed to have been stolen. The
arrest and the fact of the coat having been
found was published in the different papers.
Mr.. Bouny, jeweler, at No. 229 Charities
street, whose house had been entered and
robbed Of clothing and jewelry amounting to
some $500, called at the Office of the chief of
detectives to identify the coat. ]. L. Smith,
now an ex-detective was there in charge of
the office, and instead of showing Mr.. Bouny
the coat which had been stolen, took his own
coat (not quite SO good) from the rack and
asked the gentleman if that was the coat
which had been stolen from him.
Of course Mr.. Bouny naturally replied in
the negative, and went away never again ex-
pecting to see his coat. But Smiths little
game of appropriation did not work as we'll as
be thought it would, for the coat was given to
the property clerk for safe-keeping. But evil
deeds will eventually come to light, as will be
shown by the history of this coat; for, on
Wednesday, the 8th inst, the coat was taken
out of the property clerks Office for some
purpose and the moment Capt Malone, now
Chief of Detectives, laid his eyes upon it he
recognized it as the identical coat which Mr..
Bouny had described to him when he was
stationed in the Third Precinct.
Mr. Bouny was sent for and Immediately
identified the coat as his property. This
gave clue to the whole affair, and Capt.
Malone knowing of jewelry store where the
thief, Bob Butler, had been in the habit OF
trading off his ill gotten wares, obtained a
search warrant, and in company with Detect
ives Hennessy and Pecora proceeded to the
store of H. P. Koch, on Upper Rampant, be-
tween Girod and Julia streets, searched the
premises and there found a set of ladys
jeweIry valued at about forty dollars, which
had been bought by Koch from the negro
Bob Butler.
Mr.. Bouny has since identified the jewelry
as one of the sets stolen from his store In
January last. If it had not been for the un-
accountable conduct of Detective Smith at
the time the robbery was committed, the
whole of the property would have been re-
covered. The greatest credit is due to Capt.
Malone and his detectives for the recovery OF
the articles aforementioned, when it is re-
membered that it has been eight months
since the robbery was committed.

THE RIVAL ACTORS.

The following criticisms of Barry Sullivan
and E. L. Davenport in the role OF "Riche.
lieu" played by them on the same evening at
different theaters, is taken from the New
York Herald, of September 2:
BARRY SULLIVAN.
In the part of Richelleu he had full oppor.
tunity for the display of the best qualities OF
his acting. Few men have greater power OF
depicting rapidly changing emotions, and if
his Interpretation of the character of the
great Cardinal lacked anything it was the dig
nifed repose and self-reliant grandeur which
We naturally associate with one who welded
50 vast an influence on human afflirs.
Mr.. Sullivan plays the part of Richelieu
with less staginess and fewer pronounced
mannerisms than were visible in his render
ing of Hamlet. His reading, learned and
OF infection which gives an artifciality to his
speech. In all the stronger points of this we'll
known play, as in the scene with De Maui
pratt. the anathema and the final triumph over
his enemies, Mr.. Sullivan displayed an
electrical force that fairly shook the house,
and he was rewarded for these passages by
the general and enthusiastic applause of the
audience.
The impression made by MI. Sullivan in the
part of Richelieu was much more favorable
tnan he made in Hamlet, his quick, nervous
temperament fitting him better for picturing
the warlike Cardinal than the melancholy
Dane. Last nights performance fully justi-
fies the esteem with which Mr.. Sullivan is re-
garded in England and will not fail to increase
his popularity in America.
E. L. DAVENPORT.
That Mr.. Davenport enters fully into the
poets conception Of Richelieu can hardly be
doubted That Mr.. Davenport looks and
speaks the Cardinal is conceded. but he does
not impress us as the great Cardinal, the di-
recting mind, the whisper of the throne of
France. When he stands up and criest out
that he "recreated France the audience is
not impressed, for the effort is too feeble. No
ordinary actor should enter on the task of
giving us Richelieu as we desire him.
The average imagination runs ahead of the
actors onception-perhaps not ahead of that
which Edwin Booth is capable of producing,
but ahead of all others with whom this gen.
Grafton is acquainted. Boisterous declama-
ton would i'll become the Cardinal. Deeds,
not words, are his motto, and when he speaks
it is in low, measured voice, scarce above
whisper People will remember Booth in the
piece speaking trifie above his breath, yet
every syllable he uttered was heard distinctly
in the remotest corner of the theater. Mr..
Davenport dressed the Cardinal admirably.

THE GARRlCK CLUB. .

The Garrick Club gave their last perform
ance of the series of 1875 at the Varieties
Theater last night The house was crowded
with an elegant and appreciative audience,
anxious to witness Mr.. Onorato's rendition OF
the difficult role of Richelieu.
We should be compelled to do injustice to
the gentlemen were we to attempt to write a
criticism at the late hour at which the per-
Torrance ended, and We postpone further
notice of the performance until We can give it
that consideration and justice it deserves.
Suffice it, for the present, to say that the per-
torrance was in every respect grand
success.

THE HARD.MONEY MEN.
THEIR EFFORTS TO COMBAT THE EVILS OF THE
INFLATIoNIsTs-A PUBLIC ADDRESS.

The delegates to the Hard-Money Conven-
ton in Cincinnati on the 25th of October met
at 43 Washington square, south, last evening
Mr.. Agernon s. Sullivan presided. The fol-
lowing call to the Boards of Trade in the
cities of the United States was read:
In recognition of the great need in which
the country stands of q reform in its none
tary system, and in response to the proceed
ings at Richmond, on the 4th of May last,
New York has appointed twenty-five delegates
to Convention to be held in Cincinnati, on
the 25th day of October next, for the purpose
of considering and acting upon the subject
The long period during which We have suf-
tered from a fiuctuatlpg and irredeemsble
currency has wrought great evil in the minds
of large number of our fellow citizens and
we feel that every month of its continu-
ance adds to the Reconciliation in the habits
of thought of the coming generation
of business men. And we consider it the
duty of every citizen, the business of every
merchant, to do all that he can to ward secure
ing the use of medium of exchange which is
fixed in value, convertible into coin, and
worldwide in its usefulness. We therefore
appeal to you to convene meeting Of all who
are in favor of sound currency in your city,
and at such meeting appoint delegates to
the Convention, with view to their under
standing in the premises.
The difficulties with which the question is
fraught, and the fact that some of the best
minds of the country are, as we think, misled
in their conceptions of it. demands that men
of ability and wisdom concerning finance
should be selected to consider the means of
bringing about this reform which, all will con-
cede, is so much needed. And as the first
evidence of wisdom is a respect for the opin-
ions of others, SO We hope by an intelligent
comparison OF thought and interchange of
ideas to be able to arrive at conclusion which
