The Jfofett-P Punch BeN.-The registers
were placed in position in Manchester about
O'Clock p. NJ. Friday, September 2lst. Up
to that hour yesterday, a lapse Of three
days, including Sunday, the three principal
bar-rooms in the city had registered $50 malt
and 3l5 alcoholic drinks, the tax on which
amounted to $12.1S. These three bars do
probably one fourth Of the business done in
the city. This would make the total tax for
Manchester since Friday evening about
$50. At this rate Manchester will pay
revenue OF about $1,000 per annum.
In some OF the Manchester saloons only
ten cents is charged for alcoholic liquors.
In others fifteen cents for a single drink,
two for twenty-five cents, three for thirty
eight cents, &c. In none Of the saloons SELL
ing malt liquors have the size Of the glasses
been reduced.
At one of the saloons visited by the Dis
patch reporter the law was severely con-
delnned. The saloon-keepers whose sales
are above noted stated that their business
was not one-half as much rs was done from
Friday, September 14th, to Monday, Sep
tember 18th.

DRAuA-M MAUD MULLER. = Everybody
knows that there is class Of people, each
individual OF which, being all beauty and
grace and hence naturally being so smtten
with her own beauty and so completely
won by her own grace as really and honestly
TO dsdain, whilst pretending to think highly
OF, the cultivation OF brain power,-laughs
at the want OF intelligence in every other
one OF her class. In parlor these peo-
ple do very well, offering a pleasant con-
trast to the beauty OF the furniture, to the
graceful flow OF the curtains as we'll rs to
the paintings hanging around on the wall.
They lack little something-but so do the
other things in the room. Besides, they
are useful: they give philosophic mind
something to muse over, the poetic gentle
man something to rhyme about, and, once
in while. they even give reporter some
thing to scratch upon.
We admit it is cruel to scratch beauty, and
vet not half so cruel as putting helpless
beauty upon the stage. This world does
not produce a sadder sight than that Of u
pretty girl making an exquisite little Ounce
of herself on the boards OF some theatre,
nor do the boards Of any theatre produce a
more pleasing sight than one, who has some
claim to loyeliness, more to grace, and still
higher claim to talent, acting in O smoothly
moving play. ..
Maud Muller was presented at the Theatre
last night. The character and the play are
both fair. Miss Rogers has fine, interesting
features, lit up by goodly amount Of in
teligence. She is graceful in gesture and
in movement and she acts naturally-so ma
turally, in fact, that we are unable to make
I'D our minds as to whether we like her the
more in moments OF her gayety or in mo-
ments of her tearfulness: we are happy to
have her happy, but she is so winning when
sad that we are happy to have her sad.
Doubtless the experienced eye and ear will
detect some trivial faults; but the eye must
be blind to many things that 1t has no right
TO be blind to and the ear deaf to all chaste
and sweet appealings that cannot appreciate
the numberless beauties OF Miss Rogers's
now-gay and now-lnournful Maud Muller.
with some care bestowed here and there,
the company would prove fine one. Mr..
Abbott US the Judge lacked sustained dig.
nity: MIR. Liston as Uate Harpin was clever.
The orchestral selections were animating
and scene-settings excellent.
Miss Rogers, by the way, Is very mucn
like Kate Putnam: her features and man
ner, however, are more delieately refined
