[SPECIAL COKRRSPO.VDBNCK COlUMliUS ENQUIRER.]
New York, January 1, 1874.
Happy New Year, O, reader! I saw
the old year die last night iu a perfect
halo of glory. It was, perhaps, the first
clear, blight moonlight New Year's eve I
can recall to mind for many years. Well,
1873 is gone, and with it how many hopes
and aspirations that were born with it.
Happy is he who possesses philosophy
enough to meet with calmness and con
tentment all the vicisitudes of life, never
thinking of “what might have been," but
resting content with “what is.” *
making ni:w years* calls.
To-day wo nro all forming new resolu
tions, buildiug now airy castlos and get
ting drunk. Not a lady is to bo seen on
the streets. Lnvinia is receiving New
Years’ visitors nud of course cannot prom-
euade. Chillies Augustus has already
paid sixty visits and drank sixty glasses
of wine. As might bo imagined, Charles
lias become somewhat muddled and has
jiiBt made his third visit to Lavinia quite
forgettiug that ho has beeu to see her
twice before. His white kid gloves are
getting somewhat soiled, his new tile has
lost its iuimaculateness of this morningand
his eyes aro heavy and inflamed. About 12
o’clock to-night Charles will affectionately
embrace a stalwart guardian of the peace,
call him u dom'd good follow, and .with
tottering steps allow himself to be con
ducted to the parental mansion. Just
what Chailos has done, is doing and will
do, one hundred thousand others have
done, are doing and will do on this natal
day of the year.
THE VJROINIUS AFFAIR.
Since my last let'.er, tlio principal events
transpiring have been the arrival of the
survivors of (ho Virginius and the sinking
of the steamer. The victims have nothing
new to say, but they very fully conlirm
all that has beeu written concerning the
brutality of the Spaniards and the ille
gality of their capture. Touching the
sinking of the Virginius, it is generally
believed that when sho was ordered to
this port the authorities at Washington
were fully apprised of her condition. The
order was peremptory, although it was
known that she was uusoaworthy. Her
loss bus relieved the Administration from
a part of the embarrassment into which it
was plunged by the opinion of Attorney
General Williams. On the other hand,
Mr. Patterson, the owner, will bring a suit
against the Government for the value of
the steamer. While it is very probable
that he was paid all she was worth before
she started lor Cuban waters, there seems
to he no doubt that bor ownership still
vests in him. Attorney General Williams
having, on Spanish evidence, decided that
PatteiHon has beeu guilty of perjury in
taking out the papers of the steamer, that
gentleman proposes to give to the courts
his evidence, and it is quite likely the
future Chief Justice will find himsolf
wrilteu down an ass, in blacker letters
than ever, before this affuir is sottled.
WHAT CALEB CUSHING IS EXPECTED TO DO.
Whether or not this Virginius affair is
to lead to war is yet. undetermined. Caleb
Cushing is a gentleman of great legal
acumen, but ho will find it diffioultto deal
with the Spaniards. Castellar, the Span
ish President, occupies a precarious posi
tions and can scarcely recede from his de
mand for restitution. Nothing can be
more certuin that, with the opinion of
Williams before it, the Spanish Cabinet is
fully justified in its demands; for if
Williams is right, the United States has
been guilty of a gross outrage upon Spain
in compelling the hitter power to surren
der the Virginius and her crew'. Cush
ing s principal business, as I understand
it, is to satisfy CJastellai's government
that Williams is a natural fool, who did not
know what he was writing when he penned
his “opinion." Cushing can easily prove
this but whether ho can satisfy Spuin of
the faot, sufficiently to induce her to with
draw her demands, remaina to be seen.
THE TUORNE-HMI.LHAMMER SCANDAL.
If you will pr mptly hang the intelligent
compositor who spelled Mr. Thorne’s name
“Thorne” in one of my recent letters 1
will take grave pleasure in writing the
wretched man's obituary. This Thorne-
Seillhaunuer seuudal has resulted in u row
between the 7Jerald and tbo Uniou Square
theutre. Some of the revelations made
are really scandalous. It is asserted by
Messrs. Shook & Palmers, the managers,
t'^ai Keiilbamtuer is iu the interest of a
rival establishment, (Daly’s) and that the
new watch he wears was given him by
their rival. Seilltiamnier is charged with
couiplaiuiug that “thole is uo money" iu
dramatic oritieitm ; that he made plenty
of money in Washington, and, in fine,
hinting pretty strongly that he was open
to a fee from the Union Square theatre,
which he did not get.
“THIS ESTABLISHMENT DOES NOT ADVERTISE
IN THB HERALD.”
It must be said that a criticism pub
lished in the Herald on the performance
of “Led Astray” went out of the way in
ita personalties. It charged Mr. Thorne
with leaning on barroom counters and
boasting of his successful intrigues, and
stated that Miss Weathersby, who per
forms the character of a soiled dove, acted
as if she was acoastomed to perform, in
reality, the part of a woman of the street.
This was going outside of the bounds of
legitimate criticism. Thorne not only
denied the accusation brought against
him, but very justly claimed that a
dramatic criticism has nothing whatever
to do with the private character of an
actor. So feeling aggrieved he met
Seillhaminer and thrashed hiiu. Shook
& Palmer also acted foolishly. They cut
down the advertisement of their theatre
in the Herald, and notified the manage
ment that if the attacks on their house
did not cease they would withdraw their
advertising and job printing patronage
entirely. As a response, the Herald re
fused to receive their advertisements and
job work. If Mr. Dennett, the proprietor
of the Herald. was in the city he would
promptly investigate the charges against
Seillhammer. They alone are injurious
to his paper. The idea of a critic being
in the pay of auy theatre is damaging,
nml I speak from porsonal kuowledge
when I say that Mr. Bennett would not
permit any member of his staff to re
main on the paper one hour after it was
discovered that ho had boon prostituting
his profession by taking bribes.
ANOTHER OUTBURST OF MORALITY.
Last Sunday night the police distin
guished themselves by entering a ball room
and arresting all the iumates, who were
confined for a couplo of days aud then
discharged. But few of those arrested
were disreputable characters, nearly all
being young men aud working girls,
whose several avocations prevent their
having auy other day than Sunday for re
creation. Your unco-righteous reader
will denounce Sunday balls as immoral
and ungodly; still, while I would not at-
teud them, I cannot blame those who do.
It is all a question of conscience. Mark
you, too, there are a dozen or more places
where “sacred concerts” are given every
Sunday night, at which they play and sing
everything but sacred music, or where
they sing “Old Hundred” to the tune of
Champagne Charlie, or one of David’s
hymns to an air from La Belle Helene.
These places are never disturbed because
they are “protected” by political in flu-
ice.
FECHTER, THE ACTOR, IN TROUBLE.
Talking of theatres reminds me that
Charles Fechter, the great me’o dramatic
stor has got himself iuto trouble again.
He is quite wealthy, having made a
fortune during his first engagement here,
(who couldn’t at five hundred dollars per
night and all expenses paid ?) Fechter,
who is an Englishman of a German father
and French mother, took a fancy to this
blarsted country, you know, and decided
to settio hero. He went to the Hub
where some capitalists who aJmired his
geuius offered to build a theatre for him.
Churles accepted, but before the temple
of the drama was completed got into a
row with his patrons and quit. Ho next
came to this city and a wealthy banker
agreed to build a theatre (the Lyceum)
for him. Before it was finished ho rowed
with his second patron aud retired. A
short time ago he made an engagement
with the Lyceum, which was abrubtly
broken two or three nights since by a
delicate aff air. It appears that ho sent a
gentleman to Europe as his dramatic ngeut
This gentleman 1ms a beautiful wife and
Fechter undertook to console her during
her husband’s absence. Ho succeeded too
well. When the Benedict returned he
was supposed to ask, from sundry rumors
which reached his ear, “Who’s peeu hero
since Ise peon gone ?’’ He took out a
warrant for Fochter’s arrest, on a charge
of seducing his wife. The deputy Sheriff
went to the theatre and awaited the end of
the performance before making the arrest,
Meanwhile Fechter lmd been informed of
what awaited him, and as soon aH tho play
was over slipped out through the rear of
the theatre while the Sheriff was entering
through the front door. Next morning
“ the fair, but frail” wife, also left the
city, and the two aro supposed to be to
gether now, temporarily safe from the
law’s clutches and from avenging bus-
bauds. Abtca.
Progrena in Mexico.
Mexico has just achieved a most sig
uitioant triumph. A series of amend
ments have beeu added to the coustitu
tion which eff ect a complete separation
of church aud State, and put religious
freedom on a solid basis. They declare
that no laws shall effect the establish
ment of auy religion whatever; that
marriage is a civil contract; that no relig
ious institution ahull acquire real ostate
nor use the rents therefrom, except for
the single purpose specified io the cousti
tution; that the simple promise to tell
tho truth shall take the place of tho re
ligious oath hitherto dictated by the
church: and that the Stato cannot allow
io bo carried into effect any contract,
pledge or agreement whoso object may
bo the detriment, loss or irrevocable sac
rifice of the liberty of man, be it either
on tho account of labor, education or re
ligious outli. Tho amendments were car
ried amid general rejoicing, and the Pros-
rdont of tho Republic made thorn tho
theme of an able and commendatory ora
tion, delivered in the presence of Con
gress and the high dignitaries of the gov
ernment.

was vohcuoJ from drowning, while skat
