FOrd's Opera Company.

This excellent company will give two
entertainments in this city on Friday
aud Saturday evenings next. On Friday
will be presented Plarquet e's comic
opera, "The Chimes of Normandy" an
opera whose success Is almost equal to
that Of "Pinafore." Saturday evening
will be presented "The Sorcerer," by
Gilbert and Sullivan. Both these operas
will be presented with the same casts
aud the same magnificence that has ac-
companied their performance In the
large cities. Speaking Of a recent per
formadce of "The Chimts of Norman
dy," in that city, the Washington Repab-
Hcdn says: The production of this ever
charming opera by Foid's Opera Com
pany must be pronounced a complete
success more than that, it was by lar
the best representation Of this opera ever
witnessed In this city, and pr we'd con-
clusively that for proper performance
Of the lighter operas We need not go IN
search for foreign talent, but merely give
served encouragement to our own ar
fists. The chorus was throughout effect
i've, and was particularly excellent in
the second act. loo much praise cannot
be bestowed upon Mr.. George Denham's
presentation OF the part of Gdspdrd. 1t
was from beginning to end, q mastery
piece of acting.

second act his facial expression and force
Of action bpre evidence Of greater talent
than the most sanguine admirers of this
valuable actor have given him credit for,
and he so delighted the audience as to
be called twice before the curtain. Next
to him the palm of the evening belongs
to Miss Anandale, Tho, as Ger udise, sang
most admirably and developed a richer
con,ralto voice than might have been ex-
pected from former appearances. Her
acting was becoming the character, and
we doubt whether this role has ever
found any better Interpretation, Miss
Blanche Chapman, as SerpOlette, was
exquisite, ard it is gratifying to note the
notifications of the assertion lately made
that this lady has found her true place
in light opera. Mr.. Hoff as Jean, did
we'll. He proved that he need but exert
himself to secure for his really very sym.
pathetic tenor voice its proper apprecia'
tion. Mr.. McCollin, as Count Henri wat
very acceptible, as was also Greensfeldel

Not il" attentive to Their DUTY "

A special meeting Of the Board Of
Education was called last evening at 8
o'clock, for the purpose of taking action
upon request made by about twenty OF
the teachers that they be permitted to
attend the New Castle County Teach
ers' Institute in Middletown on Friday.
1t was intended to take the same action
as decided upon last year-that of per-
hitting teachers to attend the Institute
and allowing them wages, the same as
though they had taught on that day.
Tie meeting was a failure, and up to
9 O'Clock six members and four report
ers had put in an appearance, and all
hope of holding mertfng was abandon
ed. 1t is thought that such teachers as
d sire to attend the institute will te
given permission to doso. .
Orders for excursion tickets, emitting
the holder to reduction of fare to and
from Middletown, in order 10 attend the
Teachers Institute, can be obtained
from Supt. Harlan, on application

SECOND EDITION
The alleged IrregtsIarttjes of
the Altered China Ring.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1v.-The reports
which have followed the announcement
Of the resignation of Assistant Secretary
OF State Seward, that his cousin, Minis
ter George r. Seward, would be imme-
diately recalled, are premature. The
Department Of STATE has been giving
close attention to the investig K alton ~ 1t
progressed, hut will not take any action
respecting Mr.. Seward until the House
has determined " to his guilt or inLO-
cence of the charges preferred against
him. Should the investigation be re"
sumed and articles of inpeachmens bo
reporfed r ON the Gommite Mr.. Seward
will be granted lea, Q Of absence to en-
able him to come home and meet his
accusers. If be be found guilty, then
bis resi2 nation will be demanded.
To permit him to retire from the ser.
vice while under fire, 1t Is thought at the
Department of State, would be construed
a. an effort to shield him from investiRa-
ton. It in therefore considered due TO
Mr.. Seward, as well as to Congress, to
have him remain in Office until the case
shall take some shape for proper action.
The statements which bring the consu
late at Hong Kong inro connection with
this case simply Indicate lack Of iDfor~
nation on the part Of the writer's, -
Minister Saward has never had anything
to do with that Consulate, as II Is entire-
| ly without the jurisdiction of China, be-
ing British pIovinceor colony.
The reports of Consul Mostly refer to
Alleged Irregularities If Mr.. Bailey, his
predecessor, and now Consul General
at Hong Kong. 1t is intimared by the
friends of Consul Mosby that he viii
shortly apply for a leave of absence and
will come TO Washington to relieve him
self of the accusation of publishing un-
founded charges. The Consulate a
Hong hong, under Mr.. Allen, the pre-
decessor of Mr.. Bailey, was IN exceed
iDeIy bad repute, the incumbent havin
made a practice Of levying D capt
tax upon Chinese emlgrants leaving TO
the United States, ostenslbly under au
thority of the reg Rula'ions, but n realit.
the amount in full, except So 90, the IL
gal fee of the Government, went int
mis- pocket. From his source he accu
mulated AZ much as $500 to $500 from
single steamer leaving for the Unite
States. 1t is now charged by COlOnt
Mosby that Mr.. Bailey Kept up this pra'
iice and was al>o engaged, in collusio
with shipnasters, in defrauding th
owners Of vessels out of money due sal
ors who were supp osed to he on boar
the vessels, but who In reality had bee
driven to desert their ships.

the hospital under the management of
disinterested citizens, or abolish It en-

IMPERIAL RUSSIAN LEGATION,
WASHINGTON, Nov. IL, 1879.
To THE EDIT r OF rHE HERALD

To THE EDIT X OF THE HERALD
In view of the increase of diphtheria
in several places of the State of New
York hasten to communicate to you
for publicity very simple remedy,
which, having been used in Russia and
Germany, may prove effective here. Out
of several others, DR.. Letzerich, who
made extensive experiments in the ap
plicatlon of this remedy, has used it in
twenty seven cases, eight of Which werr
of a very serious nature, all Of which
had favorable result except in one Gaze
when tbs child died from a complication
of diseases. For children of one year be
prescribes the remedy, for internal use
every OF OF two hours, as follows.
NATR, BENoIC, pur. so solv. in az.
distallat az. meuth. piper. ana 400 syr.
cort. aur. 100
For children from one to three years
old he pre-. crihed it from seven to eight
grammes for 100 grammes Of distilled
water, with same syrup; for children
from three to seven years old he pre-
scribed ten to fifteen grammes, and for
grown persons from fifteen to twenty
flve grammes for each 100 grammes.
Besides this he uses also with great
success The insu fflation on the dyptheri-
cal men brane through glass tuhe in
serious cases every three hours, in light
cases three times day of the natr. ben
zpic pulver. For grown people he pre-.
scribes tor garelipg a dilnfion of ten
gram mes of this pulver for 200 grammes
of water.
The effect of the remedy is rapid. AZ
ter twenty four OF thirty SIX hours the
feverish symptoms disappear completely
and the temperature and pulse become
normal. This remedy was used also
with the same success by DR.. Braham
Rraun and Professor X lie bs. in Prap DR..
Senator, IN Cass-l, aud several others in
Russia and Germany.
Hoping that the publication through
your widely spread paper will prove
beneficiarin the United States, remain

THEN INTO APPARENT FACTS.

soMk STATEMENTS THAT ThANSFOh0
THEM INTO APPARENT FACTS.
Tie contemplated railroad improve
ments In South Wilmington, growing out
of the purchase Uf river front farms by
the NJ ssrs. DUPONT, which were fully
reported In the GAzETTE Of Tuesday,
bid fair to be consupinated before many
more months. Mr.. Henry DUPONT, of
the firm of DuPonf, deN,mours & Co.,
told South Wilmington gentleman, the
other day, that the firm would cons truct
large pier on their river front, running
it out to depth sufficient TO accommo-
date the largest vessels that ply ON the
Delaware. They will also make the
necessary extension of track to connect
this pier and their powder works by way
of the D.lawaie Western and Whining
ton d Northern Railroads. This I'M
provemeni, when efiec.ed, will enable
the firm to dispense with the hauling OF
mat rial by teams, As 10 now done At
great expense, and transport the hun
dreds Of tons Of saltpetre and sulphur,
that they annually use, direct from the
boats to the works by way of the rail-
road.
That this move Is to be made with the
hope OF eventually establishing coal
shipping depot Oh the river front, below
Wilmington, ~ also admitted by Mr..
DUPONT.
lie says he is looking to the future,
and with fine wharf and pier on the
Delaware river, directly connected with
the coal regions by means of the vii. &
Northern and Berks County roads, and
the various branches of the Phlla. 4
Reading, there is every reason TO expect
the latter corporation to bring large
amount of their coal to tide water by
way of Wilmington. The advantages
Of this plan are manifold, the ctiel
among them being the possession Of a
shipping point forty miles nearer the
Capes than their present depot at Phila
delphia, and at portion Of the rive
that is open 10 navigation durirg thu
entire year. There Is no "horse-shoe'
to choke the river with ice below vii
mington, and except in the case of uu-
usually severe weather an open chan
mel can be maintained throughout thu
winter, with little or no difficulty.
1t is therefore fair to presume that tn
Phila. Il Reading Company will estab
lsh part of their great coal interest
in Wilmingio Oh before the expiration G
another year. Whether Ur not the Penn
. sylvania Company will follow suit |
! still matter OF conf cture, though ind
cations seem to predict that they will.
