"THE oCroRooN."

The "Ocloroon," as written by Dion
Boucicault, was presented at the Opera
House, last evening, for the first time in
this city, by the Gotthold Combination
Company. The drama is supposed to
portray life in the South Of wealthy
planters before the war. This may be
he intention, but II fails, or else the life
of wealthy Southern planter IS not
what 1t is supp )sed to be. The play is
some " hat of the order Of "Uncle Toms
Cabin" but it must be admitted that it
is of higher order. In some points 1t
is interesting, but there are several
scenes that might well be rewritten or
else omitted altogether. The scene in
the second act, in which the hoy Paul is
murdered by McCloskey, should be re-
written or omitted altogether. IL drags;
II is too long to wait without any action.
There are other lines that should be
omitted or else filled in by more excit-
ing ones. There are some scenes that
are not only instructive but exciting,but
still close observation of The play and
lines will disclose the fact that there is
something needed in the play to make ii
more evenly balanced. As It is now
there are portions of ii that are bound
TO drag no matter how good hand it Is
in.
The company that presented 1t last
evening could not be excelled. They
made everything that was to be made out
OF an indifferently written play. 1t issafe
to say that Mr.. j. N. Gotthold,as Salem
Scudder, has no equal in the character.
He has fine dramatic power and is an
elocutionisL of no mean abilities. He
handles his lines with great force, and
gives promise of becoming one of the
leading actors on the stage. Mr.. l..
Stockwsll, as Uncle Pete, was excellent,
in fact he reminded one somewhat forci-
bly, of Sam Sanford, as Uncle Tom, in
"Uncle Toms Cabin" Ho is young
man, and Ii he continues to improve he
will be an excellent delineator of negro
character.
MIR. Jacob McCloskey portrayed the
character of the william with studied
faithfulness. Miss Florence Elmore, as
Zoe, the "Octoroon," was very good, and
acted the difficult character with great
naturalness. The remaining characters
were well cast and well acted. No ad-
verse criticism can be made Of the act
ing, but the piece needs to be made
stronger. The singing by the Old Do
minion colored vocalists, seven in num-
ber, was excellent, and they were encored
SIX times. The audience was ve.y
large.
THE "ARaoNAUTs OF 49,"
Tonight, for the first time, will be
presented Harley Merry's romantic
American drama, in five acts, entitled
"Argonauts of 49," The play will be
presented with new and appropriate
scenery, painted expressly for the pre-
sentation of the play by Mr.. Merry, who
visited the plains for that purpose. 1t
abounds, not only in well chosen path
os, but portrays the life of the earlier
settlers In the far west with such dra-
matte force as to almost make the be-
holder believe that what is passing be-
fore him is real and not play.
The company is an excellent one, and
there should be large audience to greet
them. Those who fail to attend will
miss a rare treat.

Ticket Dealers In a Fight.

Every one knows the ticket men who
haunt the coroner of Front and French
streets. They are fixtures TO that neigh
borhood, and ply their vocation through
rain and shine. They are peculiar fell
lows, those ticket agents, and if ccmpe-
tition is the life of trade theirs must be
possessed OF an existence exceedingly
ilourishing. One of them will approach
lady who is hurrying to the train with
two or three small children, and, with
an angelic smile Of summer sweetness,
winningly remark, "Good lady, here's
your Philadelfy tickets cheap; you
won't have time toget 'em at the Office"
While the woman is tnmbling for her
portemonnai, the other, with an eye to
business, will hurry up and remark, in
dignantly, "He's a fraud, madam and
the imposition he practices Is an out
rage ON good society. His tickets amt
good, but mine Is, aud l sell 'em on
authority. How many did you say ?"
A discussion ensues, before the end of
which the lady leaves in indignation.
and the interfering ticket man has the
satisfaction of preventing his rival from
making sale.
Sometimes hurried pedestrian, max
ing 2.40 time To catch the train, will be
met by one of the venders in q mystic
rious way as though he had important
facts to impart, and he will conclude an
adept opening with an offer to
sell a ticket. If he hesitates be-
tween purchasing and hurrying
ON the sellers chance is lost
for the other agent, just as like as not,
will slip up, and, in an intense voice,
exclaim, "Mister, the trains agoin', "and
the intercepted traveller, with maiedic-
tions upon ticket men in general, will
dash away in frantic haste, and, may be,
gives up disgusted on seeing the last car
disappear around the curve.
This spirit of rivalry eliminated in a
rough aud terrible fight yesterday after
noon. The 2:30 p. IN. for Philadelphia
was waiting at the depot, and one Of the
dealers was engaged in selling ticket
when man came along on the same
side. Seeing an opportunity to make a
sale the agent on the opposite side came
across from his sidewalk and accosted
the hurrying gentleman. This was more
than the other agent could stand, and,
seizing a stick, he made at the intruder
with his heart full OF the gall of bitter
ness, and intent on driving him back to
his own domains. The intruder was
not to be bulldozad and stood his
ground. The next moment the stick
came down on his Uranium with crack
like glance-shot from an unchalked
billiard cue, and lie saw stars enough to
make a November belt of meteors. They
then went at it in earnest. Customers
we're forgotten, and the Kilkenny cats
surpassed. The evolutions were of a
most pronounced nature, and boot
black, who ran in to pick up package of
tickets, was struck by a gyrating foot
and knocked into an alley way. The
fight only ended when the one who was
assaulted picked the other up, flung him
on the pavement, and wiped out the gut
ter with HIM to his hearts content.
Both were afterwards arrested and the
Mayor fined the one who started the
fracas So and costs at Police Court last
night.

Church and State.

Mr.. John Bright in alluding to Ameri-
ca, said, "They have no bishops in their
Senate. have no doubt there are
people in this country who commiserate
their position in that respect, but l
don't. They have not constructed a ma
chine, mostly political, and partly re-
ligious, in which the State holsters up
religion, Oh the condition that religion
will bolster up the State. They have no
formed government church Or organiza.
ton, which lends to the crimes of mon-
archs and statesmen sanctioned by the
simulated voice of God an approval and
by which the voice of Christianity is de-
moralzed and degraded"
Had Mr.. Bright travelled, through
some parts of America, for instance Ches-
ter county, Pa, he would have discovers
ed that the position of Its people might
be greatly commiserated for instead of
"formed government church, they have
a "meetin' house" and county which
"bolster up religion" on "condiIion that
religion will bolster up" the county. In
other words If the county will "bolster
up" Quakerism, Quakerism will "bolster
up" abolitionism anil abolitionism
will "bolster up" the Administration,
which lends to the crimes of not Presi-
dents and good rulers, but monarchs and
would be statesmen. The voice of Chris
VANITY is not only demeralized. but that
of civilization and enlightenment. The
Caucasian becomes the victim of the
Ethiopian and laws worse than the suttee
are instituted. The "hireling priests"
who lack the fruits of the spirit and the
teachings of Christianity, both in precept
aud practice "bolster up" the straight
coats and broad brims with false notions
of humanitarianism. Philanthropy, with
them, consists in refinement sinking to
the level of vulgsrity and in intelligence
prostrating itself at the feet of ignorance.
When such Is the case forcible and true

Mr.. Lynch--It was understood by
Council that this surplus should be re-
turned; how does Council coSne 10 owe
the Board $4,000.
Mr.. Lally reiterated the contract be-
tween the Board aud Council; the tax
payers, he said would be benefited, and
he would vote for the motion.
DR.. Shortlidge questioned the right OF
the Board 10 thus give Council the mon
ey.
Mr.. Baird also raised the point that it
would he unlawful and without the war
rant Of right.
Mr.. Heisler did not donbt bu. that the
Board owed Council SIC, 200 on areount
Of the floating debt taken up in 1877. He
wanted it postponed. As the matter
stood the Board could not draw 1t from
bank for Its own use and,-
Mr.. Baird.-How then can IL draw 1t
for the use Of Council.
Mr.. Morrow strongly urged the adop-
ton Of the motion, saying school taxes
were raised not only for school but for
city purposes.
Mr.. Baird advanced the idea of having
$4,000 remain, and have Council deduct
1t from the appr priaiion.
Mr.. Kenny rebuked DIR. Grimshaw for
calling the question political matter it
was untrue. Mr.. Baird was In favor Of
deducting the amount from the appro<
priations why did he not do that when
the amount was asked for? 1t was the
duty OF the Board to return tho money.
DIR. Grimshaw, forgetting the previous
charge he had made of "pohtical maneu-
veriDg" and misconstrusd Mr.. Kenney's
denial Of politics into charge that he
(Dr. Grimshaw,) was taking a political
stand, roundly berated that mem Der, say
ing IL was shameful to maze such a
charge here.
Mr.. Heisler said that he had told the
members that this money was in bank
and for them 10 ask for a lower appro-
priation accordingly, but he had then
been laughed at. He moved to postpone
and the motion was adopted.
The Board then adjourned.

The Rattle of New Orleans,
special to the World. ...


WAsHINeToN, January 9.-At the
celaoratloH OF the anniversary of the bat
sie VI view orleans last evening Senator
0auisDury, OF Delaware, made an aJ-
dress IN which he is reported to have spo-
Ken OF General Jackson as the hero of
the grand conflict with the moneyed
power, and by exposing the corrupt and
rottenness the United States Bank and
erecting its overthrow saved the country.
Inc speaker then branched off into an
enlogy ON the Democratic party, "whose
history is the history of the country.n
Under the rule of the Democratic party
this country acquired all its widespread
territory, with the notable exception of
The icebergs and SHOWS of Alaska. The
Senator severely arraigned the Admin
istratlon OF the Republican party, and
cited as fragrant instance of despotic
misrule the enactment of Federal election
laws. The attempt of the Democratic
party to wipe out this legislature was
thwarted by the man at the other end
OF the avenue who holds his seat in CD
position to the will of the people. The
Federal election laws are infamous.
Time would fail to dwell upon the iniq-
uitles OF the Republican party. Its his
tory Is but succession of encroachments
upon the sovereignty of State govern
ment. This party threatened the liberties
OF the peope. They aim to make the
power OF the General Government all
prevalent. In order to accomplish this
They have put forward man like Gener-
al Grant. What is the spectacle now pre-
sented to free peoplep This man going
about the country and already canvass
lng-for this is the object of all this pa
rade-(a voice-"That's sol')-nothing
more nor less-for a reelection to third
Presidential term.
1t is not to crafty his vanity, but it is
the prompting of an ambition for power,
which lie will use to the destruction of
this country. But there is another candi-
date OF this same party, who has come
out and nominated himself, the present
Secretary of the Treasury. He bases his
claim .opublic recognition on the ground
that he has effected specie payments. But
what has been his system of finauces as
set forth III his speeches and bills while
i'll the Senate? The increase of the
bonded debt by funding nonitnterest-
bearing notes into low interest bonds, and
thus expressing the people. Resumption
came by the blessings of Prov idence, but
Sherman wants to appropriate ihe honor
to himfelf. To whom does he appeal aud
whom does he influence? Why, the
money power of the land-the national
bank monopoly. He may OF be as am
brtious of using power as Mr.. Grant, but
the chains of slavery are no less CALLING
because golden. In conclusion the speaker
elquenlty and torcibly stated that the
main issue now wasthe preservation of the
liberties of the people, which were
threatened by the Republican party.
Last election he Presidential candidate
of the Democratic party was elected by
a garantee of million majority, and
they were cheated out of the fruits of
this victory. This has its warning and
lesson. The speech throughout was
warmly received and frequently inter
rupted by applause. g-t
