Death Of Paul EaIk.

Paul Falk, who il known as the projec-
tor of Sunday concerts, variety theatres,
ard cheap places Of amusement in New
York, died in his house in St. Marks
Place, on Wednesday, Of paral ysis. Hia
life was chiefly remal kably for it's inancial
successes and reverses. He made and lost
fortunes. He was born in Breslau, about
1880, and came to New York in 1851.
At first he was the agent for the Reform, a
German Journal. and afterward he sssoci-
ated himself with Gen. Seabacher, the
proprietor Of a German re.ort in the
Bowery. In 1868 he started the first
shooting gallery on the Bowery. 1t was
in the old Volk's Garden, now the Stadt
Theatre. From that he went into the
manufacture of confectionery ut 81 Bow
cry, in which he cleared a fortune. He
invested his money in the Broadway Gar
den, which he opened in 1859. This was
the beginning Of series OF ventures in
concert and "pretty waiter girl saloons" ]"
Sunday concerts were given in the Broad
way Garden, with Carl Bergman as
leader of the orchestra, and for four years
the place yielded enormous profits. About
1865 he started the Lion Park Belvedere,
at coat Of nearly $4,000. The princi-
pal attraction was the epen-air concsrts
given by Theodore Thomas. The place was
favorite spot for icDics and holiday par
ties. 1t prospered for two or three years,
but at the end Mr.. Falk retired bankrupt
with debt of $4,000. He started anew
in Harlem lane, where he opened the
"Waldschlosschen," or Castleip the Woods,
but the enterprise was a failure. Subse-
quently he conducted the Pavilion and
Boulevard music halls in Broadway, and
in 1870 he opened the "Volks Kirche" in
William street. With the money he made
there he again launched ont into CONCERT
saloon enterprises, and in 1772 he had the
Columbia Garden in Greenwich avenue,
the Pavilion in Broadway, Victoria Hall
in Sixth avenue, now the Argyle Rooms,
ani the rivoli Garden in st. Marx place,
all going at the same time. In the Tivoli
he established variety show, and although
the place was packed nightly, it did not
more than pay the expenses Of the compa-
ny. A church society in Seventh street
complained against his place for being
open on Sunday, and for two years he re-
sisted all the efforts Of, the police and the
Excise Commissioners to close his place.
His Gght with the authorities took ell the

iNChief Magistrate y np rsasua that ah
amendment should be msde to the Ccnsti-
tution limiting the term Of Office. There
is but one Grant who ranks as a politician
and statesman, and he il what he is, by On
accidental turn in the wheel Of fortun ,,
impelled by circumstances that would
have made George Francis Train or VIC.
toria Woodruff President, if they had filled
the same position that Grant did at the
time he was first chosen. 'o4...g
The party in power at that time held
the Republic and its destinies in their own
hands. They were the dictators Of politi-
cal rights and privileges. 1twas they who
placed Grant where he is, planned and
perpetrated through him the measures,
which have made him and the party 50 OBJ
jectionable. The wane of their power has
been as sudden as its plenitade was, and
gradually it approachesSthe dissolution
that Mr.. Blaine is leading it inevitably
towards, by his recent actions in Congress.
In the face Of this indisputable evidence,
the unnecessary alarm that the new
amendment would express, comes inoppor-
tunely and without any senblance Of
reason. Universal regret Of the blsnders
of the administration, the fallacy of Repub-
lican doctrines and the ever present desire
for change Of party, power indicate the
crumbling decay Of the influence Of this
party's idol-Grant. Then the adoption
of such an amendment by Congress would
be an uncalled-for Legislation, and refec-
tion upon American character and states
aaanship. . .''
1t would be standing check to every
one who hereafter occupies the office, an
apparent, lack Of confidence in the moral
integrity and intellectual worth OF the in.
cumbent. It will be nothing more nor
less than this, and why should we throw
this in the teeth Of Democrat as one OF
the conditions upon which he takes the
Office and give insinuation that there is nc
one who has principle enough to be en-
trusted with the Office for more than one
term. - ~"
This has never occurred in the history OF
any party but the Republican, and the
mistakes and blunders Of that party offers
no reason why we should favor such ar
amendment as this to correct the mistakes
of party that is passing from power, and
which has killed itself by the error o.
t.. O much qrantism.

n. BLAINE AND AMNESTY.

There can be but one cause 1Or the Dl1ter
opposition which has met Mr.. Rapdalps
general amnesty bill, determination on
he part Of political aapirants to stir up the
annimosities-which had been a natural
.outgrowth Of late events, but which were
almost snothered by mutual friendly con-
cession-no matter what may rssYlt from
SO pernicious policy, so that cefdlh gen.
tlemen may ride into power and position
upon the storm Of ill feeling and passion
which they hope to evoke.
Mr.. Blaine was 80 bsggared for = pre-
tence to wiring from the Southern element
Of the house passionate retort that he
was compelled to take position, which
his own good judgment must have told
him was entirely untenable and supremely
ridiculous.
He has gained a temporary success at the
expense Of his reputation as Statesman
md fair chivalric opponent. The Re
publican party, we think, will be slow to
preserve any advantage which they
have gained in this matter. 1t was
not question 80 we are told of principle
which induced Mr.. Blaine to open the
wounds which ten years had almost closed
and healed, but personal opposition to the
chief actor in the late war.
The grounds upon which he rests
his argument are as narrow al
the arguments are weak. Certain
ly they are original, and it would seem
strange indeed if all the talent and ability
of five former Congresses had not discov-
cred this wonderful objection to an univer.
sal amnesty, for the question has in some
way or other appeared in each House since
1865. What then are the American people
in this Centennial year, when forgiveness
and good feeling should make our country
smile once more with brotherly affection

nent position in the councils of the nation

more likely to gain than ever Can it be
possible that the people Of the North have
20 far become the property Of tricksters
and politicians, rs to verify such predic-
ton, or will they not rather denounce such
a statesman and such statesmanship!!
Mr.. Blaine deserves for this act of his
public life the censure Of his fellow-citi-
xens, and ostracism even from his own
party. 1t was no objection to Davis, nor
any objection to universal amnesty, for he

II it is time, rs General Boynton writes
to the Cincinnati Gazette, that there is an
effort within the Democratic party to
defsst Senator Bayard for the Presiden-
tial nomination in the interests of Sena-

tor Thurman is himself taking no part in
the movement, for the two Senators are
strong personal friends, and one would
not axe any underhanded advantage Of
the other in this race for the nomination,
if either is making any effort at all in
that direction. The movement is certain
ly not because Of any dissatisfaction with
