Owing to the extreme unpleasantness
Of the weather there was but a small
audience present at Professor CALDWELL =
Illustrated lecture on mesmerislR at the
Masonic Temple, last night. Out Of tn.
audience there were but few who cared
about being put under the influence OF
mesmerism, but boy succumbed At
last, aud performed some queer antics,
turning his coat wrong side ont and
fishing in an imaginary pond. Had the
audience been larger there would no
doubt have been larger number OF
subjects. Several newspaper reporters
submitted themselves as subjects, but
for some canse or other no imprsssi ion
could be made.
This however is not strange, as the
genuine reporter is specimen OF llu-
manity for which great allowances
should be made, and as a concentration
Of thought is necessary in good sub.
jet for a m-smeric state, q reporter who
is required to write up some sublime
aud poetic thought, and the next mo-
ment graphically describe dog fight is
the last person in the world to conc-n-
trate his thoughts, and hence are bad
subjects for mesm-rism. A good house
however is expected to night when
there will no doubt be some good sub
jects and ane evenings entertain
ment.

Rip Wan NtUkIe.

The Scranton "Rf,ublicsn," of April
9th, in speaking Of the appearance I"
the above play in that city says:
Mr.. Joseph Jeferson's Rip Van
Wrinkle is a creation recognized by tn.
whole civilized world as true to the ia
nous legend upon which it is founded,
and natural conception of a good na-
tured, even tempered, honest man
held in thrall by an appetite for intexi'
eating drink SO strong that the prayers
aud maledietions, kindness and cruelty
Of his wife, and the tender affection Of
his daughter are alike powrrl.ss to
wsau him from.
In working out this admirable con.
ception Mr.. Jefferson brings int" active
exercise the talent which has modr him
the most widely known and most p"pu-
lar actor upon the stage in shis or any
other country. There il nothing lack
ing in any Of the conflicting traits that
make the traditional vagai~nd Rip Van
Wrinkle the finest character portraiture
known 10 American theatre go+rs.
1t is intensely realistic in parts, and
though one is moved to tears because
Of his expulsion from a home not alto
geth-r pleasant to him, IN. must also
agree with him that h- led his "Gretch-
eli" hard and comfoltl.ss life. The
highest praise one can mstow upon
this dramatic wonder is that 1t is Joe
Jetf-rson's.
The drama was wpll mounted. The
wild, wi.rd scenery Of the Ksttskills
was brought out very effectively. The
"Demon Scene" was esp cially nne.
The play will be presented in this city
for the last time on Saturday the 22nd.

JACOB WEIGHT ALL WRONG,
Jacob, sis Wife and two Others
Given . HearlHg Last EveninG,

Notwithstanding the inclemency OF
the weather last evening, the police
court vas largely attended. Fully ten
minutss before TIE trials commenced
the room was crowded, and at ten MN
utes 10 seven o'clock Jacob Wright,
colored, was placed in the dock, the
charge against him being assault ana
battery on Isabella Ebert, also colored.
The evidence showed that Jacob had
endeavore.l to lead Isabella's husband
away from her, and being unsuccessful
he caught Isabella snd dragged her
along the street, and not being satisfied
he hit her several times with his list
in til. head. Jacob was fined s. and
cost.
No sooner was this case finished, when
a white woman, was placed in the dock !,
alongside Of Jacob. On being asked
by His Honor, what her name was
she replied, rather boastinsly, sarah
Jane Wright is my name sir.' As she
made this remark she cast her eyes to-
wards her husband, and looking to-
ward. the witnesses she shook her head
at them as much as TO say 81 will pay
you ali for ihis.' Jacob and his wife
were arraigned for keeping house of
Ill repute on Locust street over Third
street bridge.
Several witnesses testified to the rep
utation of the house, and all of them
said "that great many colored men
frequently pay them visits at the
house" The evidence being sufficient
to convict, Jacob and Sarah were fined
thirty dollars and costs for keeping a
house OF ill-fame, and twenty dollars
for each twenty. four hours that it is
kept open for the same purpose hereaf,
ter. Jacob Wright, at one time follow
ed chimney, sweeping, and has at va
rous times been employed around
livery stables. He has but one eye,
and he questioned the witnesses very
closely.
His alleged wife, Sarah Jane Wright,
alias Jenny Wright, is woman rather
tail in stature, and appears not to be
as free a tak-r a. her husband. When
a question would be asked the prison.
ers Sac would give one look at Jacob.
That was enough, instantly hs would
arise to his feet and ask questions or
answer them as the case might be.
The two girls, inmates OF the house,
Susan Mo,re and Emma alcLane. both
white. were then arraiynsd for disor-
derby conduct and were each sentenced
to Fort Pyl-for 60 days.
This finished the cases last evening,
