A? candid HP for alderman in the first precinct, rMr. Battersberry, dropped dead on the eve of election day, lie had been suf fering'from heart disease for some time but in the active work of .his canvass ■be had forgotton about Jliis weakness, ■nthe evening before the 7th of No- he was engaged bunching his HBts when he dropped down dead, 'fyy Nichols, one of ■Paining lights of Tammany Hall, ill with a fever pr<xluced by ■cold contracted while working for his Party. The Friday before the electiou, ■rubert O. Thompson, the leader of the Koiintv Democracy, fell before an at tack of bnim fever. The prompt and energetic of physicians, however ?re vented the disease frem getting a uli hold on him, and after a week of fenxiety to his friends, he is now in a ■air way f recovery. The saddest ex perience of all, however, Is that of Coun Fty Clerk Butler, who was a candidate for re-election, but was defeated. Those about him say that since election day he has been acting ‘•mieer,’’ and his ' 5 m -p P ■ rj n i. y . go to the country tor ;t while, where he liy obtain that repose so well describ ►by Dr Holmes, when he says that, jlence, like a poultice, comes to heal e blows of sound.” Herbert Spencer, during his stay in is country, has kept very retired, and but onco ventured on expression, in print, of an opinion .upon us and our institutions, but if he had done notlAig else than deliver that hotnMy oH offer work which he presented afthefarewell dinner at Delmonicos on Thuesday even ing, AmericansJwoukVever have cause to be grateful to him.

Fortunately for the public, ■sicolini was indisposed on Friday, and ■fee accomplished artist, Ravelli, took Kina place as Alfreda. Palassi singing ■Germ on t, and Moiiti appearing as Medi icp. These names are enough to show what a treat opera-goers had. Mrs Langtry continues to< hold her own, and it is next to impossible to se cure a seat for any of her performan ces. Mr Wynham’s engagement at Uie 'Union Square likewise continues ex feAmely popular. He is one of the very Wst English actors we have had over here in along time. Ilis pronouncia- Ltion is free from that cockney accent which Mr. Wallack’splayers affect, and which is neither fish, flesh, nor good red herring, and his style is so full of hu mof", liveness and incisiveness that it is positively refreshing to sit through a performance of “Fourteen Days.” Xext week Mr. Myndham will appear in an English adaptation of Mr. Bronson Howards “Saratoga,” called “Brigh ton.” “The event of the week for cultured theatre goers |is tlie reappearance of John McCullough, the eminent trage* dian. at the Ffth Avenue Theatre, His “A irginius is a well known creation but the oftener one sees it, the better Ji appears, for McCullough, who posses* es all the conscientiousness of Barrett/ keeps studying and studying and con stantly finds moans of throwing new light on his work, which make ever'the finest nuances appear |in strong refief.

The Metropolitan Loan Exhibition, now in progress, is very meagre in pain tifcs, but rich in tapestries. In Bei ges are particularly fine in color, though symewhat heavy in execution. Tbe artists who exhibited at the recent display at the National Academv of De sign, are very well satisfied. More pic tures were sold at the Spring exhibi tions. The reason for this is to be foumLin tbe fact that the artists had the God with them,and did not extravagant prices as they have been in the I abit of doing- To mark a picture as for sale at SSOO when it is [scarcely worth £SO. may impose on those who know nothing about pictur es but at the same time do not buy. The intelligent connoisseur who pur chases pictures canhot be taken in that way. The presence of Seymour Haden the great English etcher, is already making itself felt in this city in the efforts of the dealers in prints, and iR likely to revive in artists a feeling and and love for this beautiful art.

Pillow Ihams are going out of fashion at presemi, and when used at all, are no longer made of white linen, but either of colored silk edged with lace, or of cream-colored crash, embroidered in colored crewel or tileselle. The favorite desiwns are Thor waldsen’s Night and othen similar dcsigus*suggestive of repose,™ charming noty for upper mantel de* coration consim in the insertion of a broad band of figured plush between the carving at the top and the frame work which looks very beautiful and en rich the appearance of even tbe most humble anartment. Great attention is being present to the decoration of lamps globes. Colored designs of wreaths or flowers are especially suitable for the latter, and they are as rapidly painted on china; but it is less easy to to have them burnt colors hbweven obtainable in any sta tiOMpry stcfe, will come very handy.
