ITTbe beaaUfDl weather of last week brought out the amusement seekers In eilraordlnary force, and every place of pnbllc resort In the cltyioame In for a very liberal ahars of tho circulating me- dium, which waa apent with a locaaness eipreastve of anything ehia bnt allRhtneaa In the money market Notwithitanding the Tory unhealthy condition of the city, as deieloped by lbs opera- tions of tho exsmlning board of the draft commission, the etreeK are throDRedwllbrctamlog absentees and consorlpled inTslids; soldiers also continue lo arrlTo ^nd encamp In our midst, all In- tent on aeelng tbe alghta of tbe great metropolis. Zrerytblng glTOS ertdence of a prosperons season and a sapertbnndance of amusements for tbe entertainment of those who like a gay and Jolly lite We have hal aeveral noTeltles presented to onr no- tice since last week's Issue'of the CurpzB, amoDS tbem being John Drongham's drama of "Lady Audley's Secret;" there-ap- pearance of Edwin Forreel; Itaeappearancs of the Oerman, Band- nann, tn a new tragedy; the ddiut of Terrecke, the European gymnast; tbe opening of Ibe Albambrs, with Arabs, ecL; and tbe arrival of an heir to the fame and fortune of MatUda Heron; and ■0 forth, and so forth; all of which OTenta are treated of In sepa- rate articles In this department Itls a fact worthy of notice that the critics who do the "heavy" buslneaa for the dalllea are nnnsually quiet tonchlDg the perrormsncea of Ur. Forreat, and aatbat gentleman has heretofore received many a peppering at tho bands of tboee critics, the question arises whether Ur. For- rest has played them oat or not Certainly he bae ouUlved the slanderaof bis enemies, and attracts as large audiences at the present day as he bas ever attracted since bis Ural appearance upon tbo etage. Probably, like the two oppoaing armlea In Vir- ginia, the critics may be laying off for real, ana recuperation, previous to commencing another vigorous onslaught One of tboie events which we, with alngniar foresight, foretold a few weeks ago, came to paaa on Wedoeaday, Sept 2d, whan Ura. Ma- tilda Heron Stapel hod bom unto her a dangbtor Speaking of matrimony and Its reanlts, "why Is wedlock like a railroad catastrophe?" "This query wss proponoded lo us by our Incor- rigible devil, "Sbceslcks," whosoemeto be troubled with the conundmmanla juat now. Not having lime to make tbo necos- sarr Inquiries to solve tbe problem, we, like Oen, Pemberton at Vlcksbnrg, gave It up. "Because," said the Juvenile fiend, snap- 'iton stags, that It was qulto a treat to lUlen to It, eapeclallr when 'VUr. James U.

The period of the scenes In the drama la that of tbe time ofLonIs XV., wbrn the noted conrteun, Madame De Pom- fiadonr, beld away In the ooart of that diaslpatad monarob,wbose ovely wire, Blanobeof OaatUe, was negleeled for the brUllantaod fasdnotlng Pompadour. The plot, though almple In oonatmo- Hon, Is remsrkably attractive and efTeoUTS In lis doTelopment flxlng tbe attraction of tbe audience fMm the tlalng of the onr-. tain to Its final fall Karolaae, the hero of tbe drams, la the com- plete penontficaUon of the visionary, phllosophlosi and Intelleo- toal Frenchmao,who, diaappolnted Id bis heart's great affeoUons, becomes wild and reekleas, and Indifferent to all worldly mat- ters, save bis chivalrous regard for hla honor. In Ibis caae, Nar- cliae, when yonng, hod married a charming girl from his own class, tbe Itiurgmii, whose ambition had been to leave blm for a dissipated career at conrt Ho, of coarse, monrns hla loss as only such Intellectual beings as Nsrclsao do, and not knowing of her ambition, ha aetks hor ss a parent would a lot daughter. The first act opens with a reception room In thebonseof one of tbe Parlblan pbllosophets, whore a party of Ibe conrt nobility Is assembled, discussing the affairs of tbe kingdom. Anon, Nar- clsse,who Is simosi In rags, and who bears tbe reputation of a mad cap wit and a reekleas wild fellow, Is seen reading a play bill In the street and thereapon some one suggests that he be called np to amuse the party by hla aarcasm and wit He accordingly ap- pears, and soon bis cultlng remarks marred tbe vanity of those preaent right and left, and be aoon glrea the party enough of bis quality to satisfy them, The neit aotpresonb tbe apartments of the then Premier of France, tbe noted Duke De Oholsenl, who, between bis love for Madame De Pompadour and bis ambition to relalD bla power. Is In a very faesllaUng mood as to which party he will aid, that of the Pompadour or tbe Qaeea He la suddenly called upon lo decide In the matter by one of tbe Queen'a anp- Sorters, and finally agreea to give In bU decision on the following ay. Then follows a acene In which the celehrtled actreaa, Ulle. Quinanit baa a (de a Me wltb Narolese, the reaolt of which la his agreement to be guided by her In certain actions that are to muk the next few days. Next we have tbe aalonof UsdsmeDe Pom- padour, and tbe Duke and her ladyship have a private Interview together, during wbloh aba reveals to blm that aba Is tbe lost wife of Narolsse, and that aba bas never loved any otber being. Of course the effect of tbis revelation Is to remove oil ct^eotlons on the pert of the Duke to bla resigning bis Interest In her af- fairs In favor of tbe Queen, and he enorlly afterwards concoots a plan that he hopes will lead to the death of tbe relgnbig favorite, and the placing of blmaelf firmly In power again u the supporter of the Queen, Acts 3d and 41b develope the working of bla scheme, the Interest In tbe progress of Ibe plot Increoelng up to the very denmumml, when all ends to the satlsbcUon of tbe au- dience and the credit of the drama. We can scarcely find terms adequate lo do Jualire lo tbe admirable acting of Mr, Bondmann as Nsrclsse, and that of Madame Ponlsl as Marquise De Pompa- dour, Often aa we have seen this lady excel In ner rendition of leading characters on the metropolitan stage, we have never seen her approach the excellence ahe displays In thia performance, andasregardsher jxrtmtiel. ahe has certainly not presented such an attractive appearance for many years post as on this occaalon. In this latter respect we do not consider that aba waa excelled by the ever charming Mrs. Allen, whose personal attractions were fully presented In the several scenes of tbe drama, her ap- pearance In the last act being ezcecdlDgly attractive, and her act log very effective. As for Mr. Bondmann, be truly deserved the / ping a melon seed at the eye of our favorite' cat "bccauee It Is one of the casual.tlesofllfe."....Tbe "Ohoit" bnslnesa "thrives apace," and every nigbt developes some new feature In these mysterious appearances wblcb have opened a new and rich vein to dramatlo enlerprlae, Tbe Bowery theatres give tbe best dis- play, and Introduce cffecis which thebr Broadway "confreres" nave not yet allempled Those churches whose patrons do' not require spiritual consolation during the hot seoaon, re-open- ed yesterday for tbe fsU and winter compalgo, under the most favorable auiplcea, the attendance at all of them being Urge, faahlonable, and appreciative.
