BJUert Telegraph: On my xrriral in New York mb* two w#el “ ,ilce i the city vu pro- jjoiijed mmioally doll, though in the eyes of to.*) much accustomed to the quiet of our towns, the appellation seemed pecu- ^j, .appropriate. Since that time, howerer, ■fuhionabl* New York" has begun to return (to,, its summer wanderings, and the streets jj,, begun to assume .their metropolitan air. It is tn>*> the milliners and dry goods princes ksssnotyetbad their “fall openings," nor has tbetity yet donned it* gay winter garb in which ,, ippeefi so peculiarly charming to the stranger; Tf , tb. signs of the summer dullness are fast Jinppsaring, the change being apparent even u the inexperienced eye of your correspondent. y.cr Southern people have already sought tbeir far-off homes, after leasing all their “spare euj," behind them, though not a few still linger .t this, (the Fifth Avenue,) and the St. Nicholas Hotels Almost the entire company which one month tgo, was assembled at the “White Sul phur Kprings," seems to have found ita way to Kev York, and the familiar faces whieh one con- i,.pdy meets, forcibly reminds him of his re- rrutcharming visit to that “Saratogaof the Sooth" 1 will not, in this unsolicited favor, (?) trespass upon your time by attempting descriptions of ybee* sad things, which have been before ao ‘tun described by your correspondents, and iritoeeoed by your renders, but will oonflne my all to giving some account of the amusements sow offered to the Metropolitan pnblio. Aa the •tundsooe upon the muaical entertainments forma one of the chief attractions to the visitor tan, I hope the aqiject may not be nninterest- ^The “ballet” has almost entirely disappeared from the Now York stage, and, for the present, the eye of the lover of the “spectacular drama,” is it modestly styles itself, can only be gratified at the “Tammany,” where a monstrous mass of sonaente is nightly gone through with in order . to (tire employment to the ballet girls who once nhibited themselves with such eclat in the "Black Crook" and “White Fawn." Why it baa thus disappeared is to me a mystery nnfuth- ouable, for as long aa it reigned at Niblo’a and the Olympic its popularity knew no bonnda; and eren now ita diminished glory nightly fills one of tho largest theatres in the city. But fashion able Sew Y’ork baa deserted it, and, for the tine, it ia to all appearances dead. Aa tho age, kowfrer, seems decidedly progressive in de pravity, may wo not fear that ita plaoe will be tiled by something more reprehensible ? This question was partly suggested by the thought that a substitute has already been pro duced at “Niblo’a Garden,” the former temple of tho “nudo drama,” wUch baa awakened a lengthy diacnaaion among moralists.' I refer to Roucioault’s now play “Formosa," whieh has recently appeared in London, and almost aJmul- t.neoualy in New York, and with great peeuni- ery success. To prononnee devoid of merit a piny which receives the practical endorsement of nightly crowded honeee, may ba regarded aa presnniptnons, and to criticize as shallow a pro duction of the gifted and popular Bonoicanlt, may be prononnoed heretical, bnt such never theless must be my judgment. Merit it cer tainly possesses, if merit it can be called, to appeal to the lower classes of society against the upper—to exposo in the moet glaring man ner the vices of the rich in order to excuse the leas refined, bnt not lea heinous vices of the poor. The antbor avows it to be bis objeot to deter from vice by exposing its enormity. In this he must moet signally fail. It is far more likely to allnre to ruin by ita fascinations than to deter from danger by ita warnings. The plsy is certainly deficient in literary merit, nnd wofnlly shallow as regards dramat- to interest. Tbongh lea offonsive to tho eve •y« than “Blaok Crook,” I cannot see that its successor “Formoh*” is far behind in its bane ful influence on tho morality of tho community. The only really first chua piece of acting now on tho New York boards, is Jefferson's "Rip Lin Winkle," So many have undertaken to describe tho wonderful effect which this play produces nnd hsve as often failed to convey any ■dequate idea of the power of delineation whieh is evinced in every movement of the actor's countenance, and every modulation of hia in comparably sweet voice, that I will not attempt a like description. The one peculiarity about hia acting which at tract* me more than all else, ia the exceeding quiet which rans through tho whole. No rant ing, no mad gesticulation or fiery declamation. All is calm and perfectly natural, nnd yon feel although yon were in the immediate presence of the veritable “Rip." The play is better put upon the boards than ever before, the scenery neing truly magnificent—contributing in no misll degree to the pleasure of the audience.— Miss Bateman succeeds Jefferson at Booth’s theatre on Monday noxt, when abo appears a* "Lesh" a character in which she has acquired her greatest reputation. I liope she may prove herself worthy so able a predecessor ns dear old “Rip.” On last Friday evening Edwin Booth appear ed at the “Aeademy of Music,” in tho charac ter of “Iago." The occasion was that of a , benefit to the family of a deceased actor, and >■ »* were consequently not favored with a repe tition. Aa Iago, Booth is grand—almost per- wt; indeed, I may say altogether perfect in appreciation and delineation of tins most difficult of Shapespearc's characters; bnt he failed in making himself heard, which was a •ore disappointment to those who were so un fortunate as to be beyond the reach of his voice. Thia was in some measure owing to the nature of the building, which is ill-adapted for a thea- tre, being intended alone for musical entertain- ^ Eor example : Txxob——“ Unloose mv hand. ” Bass—“ What for V Tenor—“There's ftomething in my eye.” This may all be very fine in Italian, when most of the audience would only understand the music : but when sung in English the absurdity of the thing certainly de tracts from oar enjoyment of the music. ** of music, I may mention that the fall season has opened at moat of the fashion able churches, and the music at some of them cannot be* surpassed even on the stage. The ^oirs are, most of them, heavily salaried—the J at Dr. Ewer’s church, which is only a quar tette, requiring $3000 per annum to support it. The Sunday afternoon exhibitions given, by the choir at St. Stephen’s Church are truly grand, and large crowds attend them, just as they do tho opera. The only apparent difference be tween these services and the opera is, that the former is in a church and the latter in a theatre; r ~r the whole service is a choral, and the music of the same class as wo hear at the opera. I —n an advocate of fine music in our churches; but I do not believe in making the House of God a concert hall. Revolting as this custom appears, it is certainly not more liable to be held op for the condemnation of the Christian world than is the custom which prevails among tho fashionablo churches of this city, of closing their doors during tho summer, just as the the atres do, and opening tho “season” Again in the fall. I am happy in the thought that our South ern people are not yet so far advanced in civili zation. I cannot close this letter without mentioning the important fact that President Grant took a rido in Central Park a few days since. Not having tho opportunities possessed by the World reporter, I am sorry I cannot inform you how many cigars ho smoked daring the ride. I hope to be able to inform you in my next. “Rep Van Wunnjc.” Mr. McCulloch’s “ Othello” was good—in •ouie parts excellent. lie has evidently studied »nd not altogether without success.— With this one exoeption the New YoTkers hnve been for some months without the Shakspeareon «»ma, and at present have no prospect of — immediate revival. i T?‘"!8 h . t regular season opens at “Wal- J?**i w »th Sheridan’s great play of ‘‘The School for Scandal,” and as Wallack has tho "*** atock stock company in tho city, the plav- g°ei» may expect a treat. In mono a dearth prevails, as ia unusual at r“* season. It ia true, English Opera has been » °ut under very favorable auspices at jh* "French theatre," the voices, many of them »emg first class. Parepa Rota's acknowledged superiority need* no comment from me, while lawk i Tenor is really superb.

The Terrible Drought and Dietreee—Crops— Chinamen—Superior Court. Kxoxvmuu, Ga., Sept. 17, 1869. Editors Telegraph : The drought yet contin ue*. We have had no rain sinoe July. All veg etation is dying—the streams are drying np— the wells are failing great difficulty in getting grain gronnd at the mills. No pastures, no pea- crop—potato crop very poor. The forward com ia abont an average crop—late crop entirely cut off. Cotton crop will be all soon opened. As no ootton was made in tbe cotton month, August, Crawford county will not yield one-half it prom ised on the 10th day of July. The river farms have suffered worse thin any portion of the county. As to tho manures used, some few aro of opinion they have been benefitted; others ay not so—that it will not pay, a the ootton factor always controls the price of cotton nntil the merchant’s drafts are liquidated; and aa long u they pursue thia snieidal course, they and their children must be tbe hewers of wood and drawers of water, and they are murmuring to themselves, etc. ■ We are like your Fort Valley correspondent, we are opposed to tht) Chinaman. We are by him, like an aged divino that we have beard of once, when be was considered to be by bis medical attendants almost beyond recovery with ady namic fever, one of his brother preachers ap proached bis bedside and uked him how it would be with him should he make bis exit from thia world, what wonld ba hia promised hopes in another world ? His reply was that be knew the people in this and be did not know them in the other world, so he preferred holding on here a while longer. I am much of his opinion aa regards John Chinaman and tha nsgro. I know the negro will steal my shanghais, kill my pigs and eat thorn, bnt that is an instinct in his ner vous system that cannot be eradicated; bnt with all these foibles I like him; be ia useful. I know his ways, and he knows mine. I was raised with him, and he with me. When tbe white man's blood is not mixed with his, he is easily controlled, docile in his nature. He is not fit for a mechanic, bnt exactly suited for the oorn and ootton fields. They don't remem ber malioe, aa a general thing. History does not teach or inform ns of snob a people. John Chinaman might not treat my children as well as Aunt Itottio or Uncle Bob does. Our Superior Court vu held here last week, Judge Cole presiding; one man tried for mnle stealing. His Honor informed him by hia aen- tenoe upon bim, that tbe way of the transgres sor waa hard. Evil doers stand a poor showing before him. Well done thou good and faithful servant. Judge Cole—wo lovo nnd respect yon. We noticed that many of Georgia's ablest bar risters woro T—It aeemstUat several weal thy old gentlemen have made their demise in the past few years and negleeted to give off their property to their children whilst the lamp held outtoburn; and hence wo see Colonels Milt Smith, Sam HalL Bob Tripp,\ James Pinkard, Dad Hammond, Washington Poe, John Ruther ford, Clifford Anderson, Simmons, Persons, Best and a host of others no doubt to aid onr friends, Cnlverhotuo and Avant, in diatribnting these estates according to equity. Every body !>oth black and white, thinks the laid Governor Bollock has abased the pardoning power in the Henrietta Greer case. No doubt the Gov ernor wishes to hear of the Ktt-Klux Elan. Yours, Ciawtoxd. Wa clip the following items from tho Atlanta Constitution; . Ynx at Jokxsbobo.—Wo learn that the ware house of T. Byrne, at Jonesboro, with fifty-eight bales of cotton, was consumed by fire on-yester day. When tho train passed by at noon, the fire was still raging. Oid Dzkalb Ahead.—Dr. G. K. Hamilton, of Stone Mountain, informs ua of the birth of a male child in DeKaib county, a few nights sinco, twenty-six inches aronnd, and weighing fifteen pounds. Both boy aad.notbar an doing vralL Resioxkd.—Engene Davis has resigned the position of private secretary of Governor Bol lock. nnd will return to New York to his “first love”—reporting for the press. H. C. Corson, of New Y'ork, has been appointed to the position occupied by Mr. Davis. Madison.—Tho town of Madison is rapidly recovering from the effects of the late disastrous fire. There are now fourteen elegant houses in process of erection, and Phcenixdike, Madison will rise from tho ashes of desolation with greater magnificence than ever before attained by it A Cute Thick.—Wo learn that, ono day last week, an individual residing on the line of the Western and Atlantic Railroad, had the misfor tune to lose a calf. He regretted the loss so much that ho took the body of the calf and laid it across the track. The freight train ran over it. Tbe conductor stopped to examine it, and found it cold already. The trick didn't win. Heaetixss Wbetches.—Wo leam that some unknown parties have of late, on several occa sions, placed rails, cross-ties and even iron rails across the track of the Macon and Western rail road abont forty miles from this city. The heartless wretches, if caught, should be severely punished. Sms and the United States.—The English papers continue to discuss the affairs of Spain nnd the United States. They assume that this Government has concluded to recognize Cuba as a belligerent, and find in that fact the defeat of all our claims for damages by the Alabama. It is also stated, that a war with Spain would be long nnd costly; onr commerce wonld be de- stoyed; onr debt increased, and Ihe result wonld not be worth the means employed. It is added, "there is still ground for hope that peace may be preserved. ” Undoubtedly. The talk of war is all on the other side, nnd to most people here the idea that any war is imminent is a novelty. The London papers are belabor ing a phantom. The London Star says that the Spanish Gov ernment is about to issue a proclamation guar anteeing freedom of election, and of religion to Cuba. It adds, if reports are true, a merciful treatment of the Cubans is a necessary prelim inary. A Single lucifer match factory in this country is credited with using in a year 720.000 feet of the best clear pine: 400.000 feet of basswood for boxes, 400 barrels of sulphur. 0600 pounds of phosphorus. It also '.ses weekly four tons of pasteboard, t'.OOU pouno.) of paper, for small boxes, and nearly 400 pounds of flour for paste. It employs 300 hands, and pays daily $1500 for revenue stamps.

Upon exominstion of the record in said ease it appear* that the testimony ggsinst the con demned was wholly circumstantial, and that her con viction was founded upon her own confessions, which confessions, when taken together, are contradictory and evince the influence of fear nnd mental imbecili ty: and WBKtKia. The perfect social intimacy of the con demned with the deceased, precluded the idea of any malice aforethought, and moet conclusively shows that the blows which resulted in death, were strrzek In the heat of passion; and Wiiirk a«. It has been made known to me that the condemned was brought to trial when the public mind was much excited, the pressure of pnblio opinion for conviction was great, and in addition to the fact that the counsel appointed to defend the said Henrietta Gregr at tho time of her trial, is said to hare been young and inexperienced, and failed to present the evidence in its proper bearing to the jury; Now, therefore, in consideration of the ficts and circumstances aforetaid, and to the end that impartial justice may bedonepl.
