BILLIE TAYLOR.
The beautiful extravagant nautical comic
opera "Billee Taylor was very handsomely
put upon the boards at the New Haven Opera
House last evening by the J. II. Rennie Bill
lee Taylor Combination, late of the Gaiety
Theatre, Boston. The stage settings were
excellent. AS is well known, Billee Taylor
resembles Pinafore in general way, and is
another happy hit. Though it will not have
such a run as the other, it is immensely popu-
lar and all should see it. It is very enioya-

the Rennle company which Mr.. Near has fa-

Death of charles J. HanIey.

Charles ]. Hanley died at an early hour
this morning at his residence on Church
street. He had been sick for several weeks
with complication of disorders, but it was
not thought by his friends that the end was
near His sickness, however, took an unfa-
orable turn yesterday, and he began gradu-
ally to sink until this morning, when disso-
luton came. The deceased was young man
well known in this city, where he had been
in business for several years. He had also
carried on business in Hartford and Bridge
port and was extensively known throughout
the State, his genial disposition and social
qualities attracting many friends to him. He
was native of New Haven and received his
education in this city. He had many warm
personal friends among all classes of our
residents, and his death will shock many who
looked SO recently upon him in the full vigor
of youthful manhood
Obituary.
On Wednesday, May IS. 1881, the large
family and many friends of Mrs. Benz
Strouse were called upon to mourn her death
at the ripe old age Of SO years. In the pres
ence of her children she peacefully passed
from this to better world. Throughout her
long life she had devoted herself to the COM
forts of others by ministeringto the wants of
| the sick and needy, and thus left a large
circle of friends to cherish her memory with
feelings of gratitude. Up to the time of her
death she retained the full possession of all
her faculties and distinctly remembered
events that happened in Germany, where she
was born. Her husband died on July %,
| 1876, at the age of 81 years. The worthy
| couple were among the first Jewish residents
of New Haven, coming here in 1848. They
| celebrated their golden wedding in February,
| 1872, at which there was large assembly OF
| their descendants and friends.
They left large family, consisting of
| children, 50 grandchildren and 16 great
| grandchildren, who form an important part
/ of the Jewish population of their city, many
| of the members of this family being well
known as manufacturers and merchants and
| in the other pursuits which they follow.
Various of the large cities of the United
States number among it's population descen-
dants of Mr.. and Mrs. BENZ. Strouse, where
they are engaged in business.
Thus, after a long life spent in usefulness,
the worthy couple departed from this world,
beloved and respected by their large family
| and numerous friends Though brought up
| in the orthodox belief, they were not slow
/ to grasp the more advanced principles of re-
form, and throughout their long lives de-
| voted themselves to religion, which was es
| pecially noticeable in their later years. I.

A DESPERATE PLAY.

The charge that Daw eS made in the senate
yesterday, that democrats had approached
Malone and Offered him the naming of the
rgeant-at al HIS if he would vote with them,
will not, as the saying is, cold water. 1t be-
ing made at this late date is evidence in itself
that it was trumped up to meet and divert
the storm of indignation that is being hurled
by the whole nation upon the heads of the
republican senators who had committed
themselves to the disgraceful bargain with
Malone. 1t is The old story being told over
again Of the thief crying "stop thief" 1t is
too transpare Mt for sensible men to take stock
in it. When Mr.. Dawes was told to name
the man, and that his own word would not
be taken for the assertion unless he did name
him, he few into a passion, and, as one of the
senators said, became impairment and dis
courteous. We venture to say
Mr.. Dawes will meyer name his
informant for the simple reason he has
none. 1t is the last desperate play Of a des-
perate partisan to stem the current OF public
condemnation that is setting strongly against
the republican majority for interrupting the
legitimate business for which the senate was
convened. The republicans have been
charged with u corrupt bargain to place a cor
rupt man in Office. Instead Of denying it or
pleading AL excuse for their action, they
have prevaricated and attempted to shield
themselves from the ignominy of the proven
crime bymaking unwarranted counter charges,
When asked yesterday if they would vote for
Rlddleberger for sergeant-at-arms if Ma
hone had voted with the democrats
they were AS silent as. an oyster.
The American people. will draw their own
differences from the actions of the republicans
in this whole business, and their conclusions
will not be at all dattering to the party of
"great moral ideas" Dupiiclty aud treach-
! cry on the one side and bribery and corrup-
| ton Oh the other, will kill the now powerful
| republican party as dead as the Capnlets.

WILLARD PLA

Mr.. Henry Willard, President of the Ore
gon Navigation company, has recently at
tanned great prominence in railroad circles
on account Of his supposed masterful stroke
of policy by which, 1t is said, he gained for
his company a controlling Interest in the
Northern Pacific railway. This gentleman
has recently issued a private circular to the
stockholders in his company in which he
says. sThe possible complications between
our company and the Northern Pacific might
affect our business and indirectly the value
of our securities, for which there is no occa.
sion for any a~pprehenslons. In the first
place the present and future relations to that
company are definitely regulated by perpetual
contract which has been in force since last
fall under which an executive enjoyment OF
all business, present and prospective, from
the territory tributary to our system is guar
anteed to us. In the second place the North
ern Pacific cannot hurt us as an enemy when
it shall be finished since it will be far more
important for them to obtain our business
than flr US to obtain theirs. We shall de-
pcHu . tulOuSu SoLiiiCSbioh u VuC Cdoi
with the Oregon branch of the Union Paci-
fic to Baker City, the point of connection
with our system, which will he finished with
in the next two years."
Willard informs his company that owing to
the severe weather which has prevailed dur
ing the winter months the earnings of the
company have been very unsatisfactory. The
table which he submits with his circular
shows the total receipts for the quarter end
ing March 31st, to be 1852 ,532, while the ex-
penses were $420, 1868, leaving only a net bal
ance of $32, 1854. 1t is stated in official cir
Giles at Washington that the reason Willard
wrote his circular was to answer a charge
openly made that he ana his friends were
seeking to gain control of the Northern Pa
tcifc road for the sole purpose of either stop
ping or delaying its further construction. If
we can take him at his word, Mr.. Willard
does not intend to interfere with the building
of the railway.

contaminated and the goods are ready to be

1t from ultimate and certain depreciation; but
the diversion ofahe Northern Pacific either
permanently or for any great length OF time,
will surely initiate against the best interests
of Washington territory and eastern Oregon,
and against the Interests Of commerce on the
north Pacific ocean. The natural terminus of
the railway is on the sound, where vessels of
any draught can come, and to place il at
Portland Or at Astoria, where only ships that
draw no more than sixteen feet can reach it,
is rs great a blunder as if the Central Pacific
had been stopped at Sacramento or the South
cru Pacific at Stockton, instead of coming to
deep water on the bay of San Francisco"
