The Bainbridge Volume 2. YORK'S CHAMPIOH OF THE ^ laughers. < .t,. f hing Bill" Convulsing a Whole Audience. jTi'IJuai Bennett, better known as ^ggjing Bill,” visited Wall street, fork, recently. A reporter for ^eSnn»y* : His appearance in the •G„ld Room was the signal for a general fW pension of business and a universal l»oph Mr. O’Brien took care of him, jod after a formal introduction request- fd Laughing Bill to favor them with an exhibition of his wonderful powers of laughing. Bat there was no laugh there. The brokers laughed at Bill, hot Bill wouldn’t laugh at them. After leaving the Gold Boom, Bill visited the jotoek Boom, where he was met by a Mitchell, the champion laugher of Wall afreet. The room was crowded, and as soon as it was known that Laughing Bill was among them, a throng of brokers gathered about him and clam ored loudly for a laugh. And Bill did laugh. The chandeliers vibrated like pendulums; the gold and stock indica tors refused to perform their functions; and many grosses of buttons from coats, vesta and pantaloons strewed the floor when the champion laugher had done. In the evening, in company with some friends, Laughing Bill visited the theatre comique. He occupied the upper right hand proscenium box and quietly surveyed the immense audience. The entertainment was of a pleusiu nature, and consisted of diversions of all kinds. There was tjie serio-comic drama, the performing mules, the girl who never saw a man, clog-dances, and Arrah-na-Pogue, all for fifty cents.— And there was Laughing Bill, too, thrown into the bargain. The perform ance commenced with the new local drama. ‘‘Empire City.’’ The third scene represents a pic nic party in Jones’ Woods, with the inimitable John Wood as a colored waiter. When Hart reach ed the stage he unconsciously looked to wards Laughing Bill. The champion laugher th n began. First he ha-ha’d, then followed with a titter, a giggle, a 'chuckle, a shout and a peal of laughter that lasted about ten minutes. The au dience became infected and began to smile, simper, smirk and grin, in quick succession, and at last they broke out in such a jteal of laughter as was never heard before in a place of amusement. But above the din could be heard Bill's loud laugh. It was the same infectious, unceasing laugh that made everybody risible and ludicrous. At length Bill stopped, and the manager ordered the play to go on; but the whole scene had T>ccn entirely lost. Aa soon as quiet was restored, Mr. Joseph Hart sent a polite message to Laughing Bill, requesting him to stop •laughing. The polite messenger was accompanied by two bouncers and three policemen. Bill laughed at them, and they retired discomfittcd. Prof. J. J. ^bowles and his wonderful performing donkeys, Pete and Barney, next occu pied Laughing Bill’s attention. He laughed so hard at the mules that they became stubborn, and refushed to per form. At this the audience again hurst into a peal of laughter, but whether at the mules or Laughing Bill, it was hard to tell. At any rate it made no differ ence to Bill, for he laughed jusf a; heartily for about ten minutes, the au dience laughing and cheering him by- turns. At length a gentlemanly appear ing youth with a red nose, a ponquet in his button hole, and hair parted in the centre, entered Bill’s box, and told him be must either stop laughing or "get- the same house at the same time. So Josh Hart summoned all his ushers and a few extra policemen and ejected the famous Laughing Bill. This enabled the actors to discharge their duties to the satisfaction of the manager and the audience, and show went on. Mr. Bennett has shown his ability as a laughist. He made an audience of two thousand people laugh while he laughed, and keep quiet when hq was quiet, and has, therefore, well earned the title of Laughing Bill, the champion laugher of the world. Awaiting Events. It is a pity that so many able journals, says the New York Tribune, wear out their time and their readers’ patience, threshing the air. Here is one, insist- ^gcuoitzee headed by the hatlUsoifRt y/f? i coJha-Ml -Di partyiituYJJ^ow “All right,” said Mr. Bennett, “I’ll atop laughing when the funny part be gins.” At this the red-nosed youth began to laugh, then the other ushers and the three policemen took it up, and finally the whole audience was laughing. Bill was putting in his best licks. His vhole body was fciughing, and his mouth looked like a gash in a beefsteak. A third time Mr. Josh Hart sent him word to stop laughing. A big policeman, brandishing a fierce looking club, bore the message. Bill stopped as suddenly as he began, at which the audience hissed. Then Mr. William West sang the audience into a good humor, and tn*de way for Frank Kerns and John Queen, the Morning Glories. They were funny, so Bill didn’t laugh; but as soon * they left the stage he gave the audi ence a 4th edition of a genuine laugh. e laughed immoderately. The audi ence lay back exhausted, and shouted or some one to take the man away. At f, st *? e °f the proceedings it became evident that Josh Hart and Laughing Bill couldn’t run opposition shows in be straightway revived in its integrity. Here is another, declaring that the un ion of the Liberal Republicans and the Democrats is a marriage for better or worse, till death do them part. Here is a third, clamorous for free trade, or at the very least, revenue reform, as the great focal idea, about which is to begin a new party crystallization. Would it not be as well to remember that parties are not manufactured, by politicians out of employment, but grow from the wants of the day ? And the want of to-day is quiet. The public mind is not unnaturally weary of incessant demands for reform and ex posures of corruption. No good is going to come of forcing further discussion out of season. It will come up in season soon enough—only too soon, we fear, unless the approaching session of Con gress proves an exception to all that have of late years preceded it. 'But just now, the politician who insists on de manding of a wearied public, which, satisfied or disgusted, has acquiesced in the popular decission, fresh attention to new lines of political attack, mistakes the time and the popular temper, and hinders the cause he would help. Gen. Grant has just received a new lease of p«ver.. Let him have time to show what he is going to do with it. When he goes wrong, attack him. While he does right, sustain the President of forty mil lions. If he places more unfit men in office, give him the same censure with which,of late, he has been justly visited, rf tho (’ascys and Cramers should get no further countenance, the men who have censured him ought to be tbe first if they have the good of the country rather than partisan advantage at heart —to recognize aud encourage the re form. The grievances which the Cincinnati Convention recited were real grievances. One of them, the refusal of Amnesty, was largely remedied, almost before the delegates had reached their homes.— Others the Philadelphia Convention liberally promised to reform; and, since the election, we have seen a willingness to make the promise good in at least one conspicuous instance, in the Civil Serv ice. To the Liberal Republican move ment both gains may be fairly credited. So long as the leaders of that movement contented themselves with protests, little seemed to come of it. When they or ganized open opposition, the Adminis tration men hastened to confer Amnes ty. and to reproduce in their promises the essential demands demands of the Cincinnati platform. If these promises are kept, we shall be the last to complain that opposition has succeeded in extort ing what support and appeal could not win. A\ e welcomed adoption of our principles, and abandonment of the old hostility to the results of the war, by the Democracy With equal gladness, we shall welcome any step which the Ad ministration may take in the way of effecting the reforms we have demanded. A OAT DECEIVER. The Capers of a Sharp Youngster. The bold and adroit lover who baffles both the indignation and vigilance of the parent, and bears off the object of his tender affection, unquestionably de serves credit for dash and courage. But the thrilling and delicious diversion often has its drawbacks. • The maiden has generally to leave her wardrobe with an enraged father, who may or may not be appeased, and sometimes has to carry out the resolution which Lady Wortley Montague was resolved upon, should the emergency require—of going to the arms of her lover “in nothing but her night-gown.” BAINBRIDGE, GA., DECEMBER 5, 1872.

The deer, hares and pheasants are dying by hundreds near Bath, England, and post-mortem exam inations develop the fact that the livers of the dead hares are full of worms, and that the deaths of the pheasants, too, are owing to the presence of parasites in their bodies.

Although each succeeding number affords a fresh pleasure to its friends the real value and beauty of the Aldine will be most apprecisted after it has been bound up at the close of the year. While other publications may claim superior cheapness, as compared with rivals of a similar class, the Aldine is a unique and original concep tion—alone and unapproached—absolutely without competion in price or character. The possessor of a complete volume cannot dupli- catethe quantity of fine paper and engravings in any other shape or number of volumes for ten times its cost; and then there are the chromos besides. Am Department.—Notwithstanding the increase in subscription last fall, when the Aldine assumed its present noble proportions and representative character, the edition was more than doubled during the past year; proving that the American public will appre ciate and support a sincere effortin the cause of art. The publish rs, anxious to justify the ready confidence thus demonstrated, have exerted themselves to the utmost to develop and improve the work; and the plans forthe coming year as unfolded by toe monthly issues will astonish and delight its most san guine friends. Tne publishers are authorized to announce design^ from many of the most eminent art ists of America. In addition, the Aldine will reproduce examples of toe best foreign mas ters, selected with a view to the highest artistic success, and greatest general inter est; avoiding such as have become familiar, thruugh photographs or copies of any kind. Tho quarterly tinted plates for 1873 wili reproduce four of John S. Davis’ inimitable child-sketches, appropriate to the four sea sons. These plates, appearing in the issues of January, April, July and October, would be alone worth the price of subscription. The popular feature of a copiously illustrated ••Christmas” number will be continued. To possess such a valuable epitome of the art world, at a cost so trifling, will command the subscriptions of thousands in every sec tion of the country; but as the usefulness and attractions of the Aldine can be enhancf ed in proportion to the numerical increase o- its supporters, the publishers propose to make “assurance double sure,” by the fol lowing unparalleled offer of premium chromos for 1873. Every subscriber who pays in ad vance for the year 1873 will receive without additional charge, a pair of beautiful oil chromos, after J. J. Hill, the eminent Eng lish painter. The pictures entitled “The Village Belle,” and “Crossing the Moor,” are 14x20 inches—are printed from twenty five different plates, requiring twenty-five impressions and tints to perfect each picture. The same chromos are sold for $30 per pair in the art stores. As it is the determination of its conductors to keep the Aldine out of the reach of competition in every depart ment, the chromos will be found correspond ingly ahead of any that can be offered by other periodic Is. Ifyery subscriber will re ceive a certificate, over the signature of the publishers, guaranteeing that the chromos delivered shall be equal to the samples furn ished the agents, or the money will be re funded. The distribution of pictures of this grade, free to the subscribers to a five dollar periodical, will mark an epoch in the history of art; and considering the unprecedented cheapness of the price for the Aldine itself, the marvel falls little short of a miracle, even to those best acquainted with the achievements of inventive genius and improved mechanical appliances. For illustrations of them chro mos see November issue of the Aldine. The Literary Department will continue under the care of Sir. Richard Henry Stod dard, assisted by the best writers and poets of the day, who will strive to have the litera ture always in keeping with the artistic at tractions. Terms :—$5 00 per annum, in advance, with oil chromos free, Tlfe Aldine will here after be obtainable only by subscription.— There will be no reduced or club rates; cash for subscriptions must be sent to' the pub lishers direct or handed to the local agent, without responsibility to tbe publishers, ex cept in cases were certificates are given, bearing the fxc simile signature of James Sutton i Co.
