A mast rose through tha tniddlc and there were a hatch and a btei&ueck companionway at each end. The fyrwat d coin nan ion gave into the fo'csle andEthe ad upon the forward deck.

The steerage •towards bad no mind to bring more water than a minimum, and two or three times we were threatened with the entire stoppage of the supply if we did not drink out of the common eup and refrain from drawing water in private mugs. Had one of ns come on board in the incubating stage of a disorder its transmusion to fifty others before ito existence was suspected by tha ahip’s doctor would have been easier than winking. Our food, which, though coarse, was probably as good as we had any right to expect for the passage money, was dished ont to o* in our own tins, bnt we were required to wash our dishes in one common water tub set by the galley cook on deck close to the lee rail. About thia tub we would stand in circle* six deep waiting for a chance to rinse our platter*, in a few minutes the water would he cold and diversified with archipelagoes of meat and potatoes. To reaeh the tab first while the water was clean wav the chief object of steerage ambition. Otherwise it was nece^ary to risk the cerUinty of grease ana tne pc*«ibility of disease or tip the galley cook for private supplies of hot water, which was against th# rules but could be accomplished, Dotwitnsfanding. z The lavatories were in the fo’esle and Acre in the condition to be expected from other circunistsn' es. When the ship rolled or a woman was seasick she could not reach them except by asking help from toe sa lor*. This was always given with a rough hut very kindiy conrtesv. wiihout which the situation would hare been int 1erabie. This close association of sieera.-e and fo’esie explains the ea^v epreai of cholera from emigrants to crew. The isolation of steerage and laloon r*'senger* appears on the surface complete, hut throughont the voyage we steerage people found it one of the chief of our few amusements to v»a»'*h the opening of the great supplv c’oHets in th« fo’c<ie from which the meat, fi-h and vegetable! for tne first cabin tabic were taken.

CUVtlF.I.IN AS MON C.ESAR DE HAZAN.

The pretentions of M. Coquelin as a politician excite smiles instead of indignation, lie might, witn his features of a great orator, trace out for the Cabinet the way for ihem to walk in, make and unmake mimsteries, hrcaafafit w ith presidents of the council, and address familiarly illustrious tribunes, yet one watched him amused—he wa- never taken seriously. He might transform the stage of the Fre: ch theater into a platform, utter the monologue of Figaro in his clarion voice which he intended should reach lar beyond ihe I,mils of tne gullerv, yet fie succeeded, iu Fans at least, in interesting omy a lew diletianti, who siuih-d at tlie assured air of this new defender of the

revn iitnm.

Thin Figaro, it must be admitted, w as one to seduce such a man as Coquelin—tins

th# “Pioideor*,” “Ampbitrioa,” the part of | “Sosie,” Coquelin created with great power j Gringoire, and took ap again the F.garo of ! whom we have spoken. Then ha piayed { the amusing role* of.Don Annibal in ths “Avecturieres” of Emile Augiar, a sort of romantic personage, inspired from the Cesar De Baxan of Kay Bias, a species of braaging, hectoring bally, who, with felt drawn over his eers, curled mustache, hich color and echoing spars, trails in the dost his long Uttered mantle,when not majestically draped in its folds, with as mach as* curaoce as if it were of parpU* My A me neon readers have doubtless seen Coquelin in this role, and they will agree that no cleverer gradation could he put by any one into the scene of the iatoxication. Don Annibal seats himself at a table opposite Fabric*, and at first shows only a goodhumored enjoyment, inspired by the sight of a good sapper. It is only littie by little, when he has drank to the health of'oli his relatives one after another, his three aunts, six cousins, tbs seven foster-brothers of Fsbnee, that he becomes more communicative. Then he softens, crie*. and finally, in a voice foil of tea s, ends by betraying the secret of bis sLter, wbo is no othsr than the celebrated actress, Cleopatra! • Auer Don Annibal, the most original creation of Coquelin has been incontestably, in modern parts, that of the Dqe de beptmonts in the “L Etrangere” of Dumas

the younger.

One of Coqueliu’s latest creations, one which, aias! the Parisians have but little eujo/ed, was that of Labussiere, a personage in the famous drams of "Thermidor,” by M. sardou, unexpectedly interdicted at tne third representation, after bavins been authorized by t!;e Censure ; board of censure.) Coquelin had become absorbed in Ibis role, tne piece had become his own, his work; so the measure wnicb struck at it exs-perated him so far as to make him lose sight of his pohticjl preferences. Without stoppine to think that the revolntionaries, with M. Clemenceau at their head, had made of the question a war horse, withmt taking note ot the politics of the ‘‘croup/’ winch admitted no doubt or blame on the part of kobe«pierre, without stopping to consider that he had for ailies in ths affair his former enemies, Coquelin in his indignation sided with hij former enemies and aguin«t his former friends. it is said that the desire of plating in other lands this part which he had so much at heart, and which ail who have seen him are unanimous in pronouncing superb, decided him to leave the Theater Francaise. We may be adowi-d to regret him, mid consequently to regret no longer having the perspective of representations such as those of the past winter, where we applauded at the same time tne three Coquelms. Iu truth, this revival of the “Fourberies of Scapin,” with Jean Coqtieliu as Scapin, C<>queiin eider and Coquelin younger as ihe two fathers, was a veritable event for amateurs of good play.

The finance committee of ths hoard of i.hool commiasioneiB is engaged iu making an estimate ot the revenue needed tor the city public schools during the eusuing year.

rate.

lienry Russc, chairman of the finance committee, believes the rate may .aiely he reduced to 2U cents this year. According to ins computation a rate oi td cents would produce a revenue o» #13e,249.39.

COQrWtlN IN HIS LIBRARY.

His ease on the stage, the mastery he displayed from Jiis earliest youth, his entire possession, so to speak, of the boards, the unxffectedness of his gestures, the thrilling sound of his voice, clear as a trumpet, the tine bantering, good nature ot his opien countenance, that naturally comic mask, the brilliance of his small, lively eyes, full of play—ail those qualities which make of him a boru comedian, won for him from the ouuet the sympathy of the public. His public so won has never abandoned him, not even when led bv ambition and developing talent he attempted characters for which be did not seem made.

torney is positive can be secured tor the city. Mr. Ruase ia o. the opinion that tins income oi ;■>45,412.87 with the probable addition o. *6,003 w.ll be sutticient to carry ou the scboo.s tnis year. Economy in ail departments would be ngoeasary, Mr. Russe said to-day, but tnat be regarded as a desirable thing in any event. A leenug that the board has p»enty oi money is nearly certain to lead in.o extravagance, he sa.d. “We have been spending a great deal ot money for school-houses in tne last year,” he added, “and in the next twelve months tnere will be little needed in mat direction; possibly one or two more burJdingl w.ll have to be put up. 1 believe that by exercising care we can pay all necessary expenses oi the schools during the next year with a twenty-cent tax rate and pay off thirty-five or lorty thousand dollars of our debt beside. Oi course if we make the iate twenty-two or twepty-three cents we can nuy olt moieof the debt, but I do not leei that it is lair to tax the pcop.e so heavily when the debt can be paid aradualiy, in a way w> ich will not be burdensome.’’ William Scott of tne finance committee thmks a ra.e oi 20 cents too low, and is oi opinion mat the board will sinx deeper into debt tuan ever u it undertakes to ma.ntain the schools at a rate lower Loan 22 cents. At toe meeting of the school board next Friday night it is iiitely there will be majoritj and minority reports trom the finance commutes. Messrs. Russe and Roth will probably report in lavor oi fixing the rate at 20 cents, while Mr. Scott may advocate a rate ot 22 or 23

cents.
