Memorial Discourse Thomas
 Church-The Late Rev. NIT. Purves.
 A large congregation was present at St. Thomas church yesterday morning despite the heat, the occasion being the memorial ~ sermon by the late Rev. Dr. Beardsley on the late Rev. Mr. Purves of this city. The discourse recounted the principal events in the life of the deceas ed, the prominent traits of character, piety and usefulness. The deceased spent part of his early active life in Florida as tutor in a private family. This was many years ago. He took an interest in the colored people, and devoted some of his time to giving them in- structions. This was prohibited, as it was deemed inimical to the interests of the mas ters. During his stay in the South 8 revolt among the negroes occurred and the master of the plantation was killed, and, though it was a time of much danger, MT. Purves was protected and spared. MT. Beardsley paid feeling tribute to the deceased brother, and the sermon was listened to with deepest at- tention. The music was very appropriate, and under MT. Guyon's able care is con- stantly increasing in favor.

Police Notes.


 On Saturday afternoon Officer Streit ar rested Charles Lynch, who was accused by Charles Shaw of having robbed him (Shaw) of his shoes while he was asleep near the Derby Depot:
 Detective Reilly telegraphed to Chief Web ster from Lockport, N Y., on Saturday that he had started for this city with the parties who assaulted Mrs. Milton J. Stewart on East Rock 8 short time since Mir. Reilly will probably reach here this morning. The name of the culprits are James Connolly and Michael Fitzpatrick.
 On Saturday morning there was TOW on the schooner Mary Wiggins, which arrived from Alexandria Friday, loaded with rags Policeman Gerard was called upon and he took two of the sailors engaged in the dis turbance to the police office and locked them up.
 By continuance, the two cases of indecent exposure came up against William $. Will Hams. of Hartford, in the City Court Satur urday morning. They were nelled. If the accused or his bondsman is not heard from by next Thursday suit will be instituted to recover the bond of $275 which now stands in the third case of the same nature. Last evening one of the most quiet for Sunday, seen in this city for long time. Usually there many cases of drunken ness, but the reverse was the case yesterday, only three arrests having been made for this cause up to 12 o'clock last night. This was probably owing to the fact that previous general orders had been issued to the police to watch closely all places where intoxicating liquors are sold.

'sTI1E PROMISE OF May"
TennySOA's Failure.
From the Providence Journal

From the Providence Journal
The failure Of MIR. Tennyson's new drama
'The Promise of May" which is said to have
been hardly less than ridiculous, and to have
called forth Kisses as well asyawns. confirms
the truth of the fact that the atmosphere of the
stage is so wholly artificial that it requires
special literary as well as personal training for
successful adaptation to it. 1t is al
together probable that Mr.. Tennyson's
play will be agreeable reading not
only tor its literary art bat its studies of char
acter, and 1t is quite probable also that the same
plot ana the same d,'anaGhs persona could in the
hands of Mr. Boucicault or some other skllful
dramatist. have been made into a successful
play. But the trouble with ''The Promise of
May" as with most modern dramatic literature,
is that literary artists have no knowledge of the
artificial requirements Of the theater and that
the practical dranatist has very little literary
art. There is no English dramatic writer Nfo
has combined both since the time of Sheridan,
and the consequence is q number of plays which
read well, but which it is impossible to act; and
as many more which can be acted well but
which it is impossible to read. 1t was a bold
and mistaken attempt on the part of Mr. Tenny-
son. after his style had been fixed. to enter an
untried and difficult field: but there is long
he can console himself, and the voice of tran
STORY theater audience will have no effect upon
his permanent Iame. The CHIEF regret will be,
if it causes him any personal annoyance, as it
should not do; and if he is sincere in his con-
tempt for the ''many-headed beast" the public
80 often and so feryently expressed, it will not
trouble him much.
