Gossip from Gotham.
WHAT IS TALKED ABOUT IN THE
METROPOLIS.

From day to day the impression
grows stronger, abroad as well as here
that Congress made a serious mistake
IN choosing Chicago as IA site for the
coming Worlds Fair. Aside from
That clty's failure to secure the neces-
sary guarantee fund, and her prompt
postponement of the date for opening
the exhibition, the sentiment is pro.
nounced that the location is too far
inland.
Mr.. Whitelaw Reid, Minister to
France, who is home on a short fnr.
Tough, says that it was great disaD-
polntmeht to Europeans that New
YORK was not chosen as the site, and
ne thinks that the foreign patronage
Will be small, Mr.. A. T. Goshorn. a
man particularly qualified to speak
upon the matter from his having been
dlrector-generdl of the Centennial Fx-
position, considers that no worse site
could nave been selected. Upon all
SIDES 1t seems to be admitted that the
Fair will now be nearly one ofnational
and not OfinternatiOnal OF Importance. It
VIII be merely such as is held in most
important American cities everv few
years, and will have special features
10 attract throngs from all parts of the
world, as 1t would have had. had New
York been chosen.
BARNUM'S GREATEST EFFORT.
The irrepressible, perennial Barnum
has arrived in town with his greatest
show on earth" For some time mast
1t has looked as though we should he
obliged to get along without his
unique presence, for this year at least
Heretofore ne has pitched his camp AT
the Madison Square Garden, which
has now been torn down and is re-
building as combination theatre. con.
cert-hall and auditorium. As the law
does not allow the erection of tents
within the city limits, it looked rather
uncertain for the greatest show" for a
length OF time; but the law was got
around III some manner, and here we
have it.
The show, as it is now fairly estab.
lished at the old Polo grounds. is an
odd sight for New Workers. because II
IS the first "tent-circus" the citv has
had for number of years. There are
ten tents in all, including canvas ac-
commOdations for cooking and serving
meals to The many employees, and for
blacksmith work, dress making and
the like In addition to the usual
menagerie and circus, the star attrac-
ton this year is Kiralfy's Nero: or.
the destruction of Rome" This spec
tacie is panoramic. and an immense
number of people are employed in pic.
turing to us the life of the palmy davs
of the Roman Empire. Fetes, tri.
umphal professions, gladiatorial exhi-
billions, games, sports. chariot-raciDg
and tahleaux form the featurs unon
which the spectacle is based. In ac-
cordance with past custom, Barnum
states the present exhibition is simplv
the greatest great show he has given
alongside of which all former efforts
are dwarfcd. Great gift of the gab
has Baruum. He delights in being
called humbug. and he has certainlv
made it pay better than any man of
our times.

Love and the Leaf.
BY HUNTER MACCULLOCH.

Love and the leaf were born together:
Tender, pale green leaf unfurled
10 a half-awakened world:
trembling at the breath of spring;
Startled by the robins wing:
Dashed with sunshine, drenched will
rain;
Made to serve the wind as a vane,
All through spring and summer weather
Love and the leaf were born together.
Love and the leaf were doome together:
Fragile leaf, sere ashy, curled
Fallen in torpid world;
Chased by winds so cruel cold:
Soon to be but mould on mould;
Read from emblematic leaf
Life and love are brief, are brief;
AT the end comes wintry weather.
Love and the leaf were doomed together

THREE SIGHTS WORTH SEEING.
Among the MANY opportunities
which this city furnishes for diversion
there are three at this time which are
OF more than usual interest. The first
IS Prof Gleason, the horse trainer and
tanner, who is giving exhibitions of his
prowess in conquering vicious and un-
manageable animals. Anyone NAV
take him horse for treatment free of
charge; the most obstinate bakers.

storm with her graceful figures. She
mas an engagement at a concert-hall
at which ladies do not attend, but she
IS constantly in demand at private par
ties, and enjoys a popularity as rare as
1t IS great. Her dancing is considered
the highest poetry ofmotion.
Dividing public attention with her
to great extent are the Vienna LADY
tencers at the Eden Musee. There are
six of them, and their exhibition is
one of the prettiest and most scientific
sights imaginable. Their performances
are attended by vast crowds of people.
ard they are deserving of the patron
age.

CITY OF MEXICO, Nov 17.--Advices

After a brief cannonading the walls OF
