Tba climate England, whloh bad such a blighting effect upon the health of bis wife, seems to bare agreed per- 1 (ectly with his mere robust constitution, and the Voyage home after bla labors In London proved of tnaeh benefit to him. la the midst of nts great domestic affliction be was not In a mood to say roach about bis recent professional experience In England, but what ha did say was directly i to the point. "I never was reeeWed more heartily la my life, be said, "than by the audiences drawn together when I played la London. I have had a most delightful i experteuoe. socially, professionally, and in every i respect, with the exception of tbe unfortunate 111- turn of my wife.

But for that I should still be i emong the many friends whom I have made la Iceland. I left New-York just oae year ago to dar. tbe last Wednesday la Jane, and I thea in- 1 tended to remain abroad at least two years. I bed my arrangements for a provincial toar all made i and my company enraged, and was going to start tbrounb the Provinces as soon ss I flnlsbed toy engagement with Irving, but Mrs. Booth's ,1110 obliged roe to give up all my plans for tbe tireeent.

It was a bard struggle for me to play, snowing that she was lying sick, and liable to die af any moment, and this fact plaoed me under a treat disadvantage on the stare. But I labored card to forget my troubles when I entered tbe theatre, and. convidering everything against me, I think that I did fairly well. From the first night of tny appearance to the last my audiences were full of satbnslasm, and during my entire stay abroad was overwhelmed with ail sorts of courtesies, had to accept more Invitations to lunches and dinners aad reoeptlons than I ever did in America, and If I bad staid the full measure of my two years I. am afraid I bouid have eome home full-blown society man.

all bands I was treated with the most rearing kindness. Even tbe orltlcs, I am inclined to think, treated me with fairness. At first they seemed a little disposed to 'damn me with faint but on the whole they evinced a very kindly spirit toward me. My engagement with Irving was one of tSe most agreeable that I ever played In my life, lie Is one of the most delightful mea that I ever met; always obllriag, and always kind in every possible way. He; Is very popular In London, both socially and professionally, and, I think, deservedly so.

lie Is a very superior actor, and Is gifted with a remarkable talent for stare management, two quallnratioE for tbe stage which are seldom found united in the same fersoa. Irving, with all his popularity. Is a very modest maa. He has been the Idol of London for the past 10 years, and has been ridiculed and caricatured constantly In tbe eomlo papers of London, so tbat he is one of tbe best known men In Great Britain, but with all this he Is not st all puffed np with a vain Idea of his owa importance. He is altogether a charming man.

and if he ever visits America be will be liked no less for bis qualities as a man than for his powers as a great actor. There seems to be an Impression In this country that Irving Is very much of a society man. 1 don't think this impression is a correct oae. Be Is a very quiet man and seldom goes out in society now. whatever he may have done years ago.

He spends most of his time at bis theatre, the Lyceum, glviDg his attention to ice minutest details of tbe work which be has on bsnd. Tbe fact Is, Irving Is such a hard worker r' that he has very little time to devote to society, even he felt disposed to cultivate It. He took cue to a friend's house to see the Prince of Wales oue night after iwe had attended the theatre together. We remained but a short time, and bis actions oa tbat occasion certainly would not give Pie the Impression tbat be was violently attached to society life. Irving may be summed up briefly as a remarkably superior astor.

an Indefatigable worker, and a thoroughly true and manly fellow." Is it true." asked the reporter. tbat Mr. Irving Is contemplating a professional trip to this country Irving told me the day before I left London," said Mr. Booth, "tbat be had no time to content-flats coming to America, for tbe present at least, lie Is lu the full tide of success in London, aad bis entire time and attention are taken up by his theatre Just now. He renewed his lease of the Lyceum for a term of SI years Just before 1 came away, and.

he told me thea that he had concluded to purchase tbe property. I am afraid tbat Americans will have to go to Loadoa to see Irving for seme years to come yet. He commands a princely Income, and for that reason money Is no inducement for him to leave bis own held at home. Tbe profession at large In England." oontluued Mr. Booth, "were all very courteous toward me.

and treated me with th greatest cordiality. 1 have never received such unl-, versa! kindness as I experienced in London. The Kntlnseat toward American throughout England is become a very warm one, and there is a very excellent feeling betweea the two countries. They have certainly treated our at lists very finely, and a sen tesury to tuat I act I rum toe personal expert' eoreof a Tear." "How do the London theatres compare with tboee of New-York asked the reporter. "Our theatres are very much better than those or London," I was the prompt answer.

The theatree of England are very uncomfortable, and tuey strike an American, especially a person from this CHv. where we have so many elegant buildings devoted to tbe drama, very unpleasantly. Half tbe pleasure of seeing good play depends onoa the surroundings of the audience, and tbe player In a weil-oonstructed theatre has a great ad vantage over-nis orotber ia a poorly arranged play house. Tbe theatres of London are old fashioned, stuffy, and almost all of them badly ventilated, Tbe old Haymarket. since lu, renovation, is tbe best in tbe oltv.

but msnv improve ments on tbe American plan might be made even la this house. One of tbe most objectionable features of the London Theatre Is the pit. This is situated Deck of tbe stalls, from which Itlssep a rated by a railing, where tbe oarauet of our thea tree Is located. "The pit' Is tbe eheap part of the mws, aaa aere in raoDie eonrregate ana annoy the better classes la tbe stalls by their ill timed and Often senseless comment. Here we nlaca thus people la tbe gallery, where tbey eaa indulge ia as muco aoiay conversation as they please, srltbout disturbing anybody but themselves.

There are ne centre aisles in anv of the theatres. so tbat the ailing aad emptying of the bouse Is a very difficult and tedious performance, la case of a Are or a sudden panic, 1 canaot, for the life of me. see bow one person ceuld escape from tha n1t' live. A- movement has been on foot for soma time to do away with tbe and some few the atres, including the Haymarket, have already abolished it. But It reeulres some courage to make an Innovation of this kind: The 'pit' is an tnsututtoa of the English theatre made sacred to kivrer classes by long years of oocu nancy.

They look npoa It as their special place and claim a sort of proprietary Interest In It, To banish them to tbe gallery now Is sure to brins? down nnon the head of the Independent manager the enmity of a v-laas which, after all. is a very important element in his aadleaos la a financial point of view, and which he cannot wall afford to lose. But the movement has begun, and I have no 'doubt that tha days of the 'fit' are numbered. The managers will 'ail to Una one by one. and when tba habitues ot the old 'pit once became aecastomed to their new quarters they will probably like them as well as.

if not better than, thalr old nlaeea. All the Loadoa theatres are doing remarkably well jaw. now. -i ney are nearly au asvoted to eomedy aad opera houffa. which cav wall in Laadon.

The Lyceum. Irvlng's theatre, is really the only house in the eity which is dedicated to the) standard fcaakespeareaa drama. Irving raled tha prices wbea 1 began my engagement with him last month. There was a great outer against this at first, but tbat dldnt prevent the people from filling the bouse athe advanced rates. It Is avery good sea-Son for the legitimate as well as the sensational drama taLeadon.

and I ans mnVlnnul that If I eoutd have carried out my projected tour of the erovtncee I should hsve bad a remarkably good season outside of Loadoa.v Wow do too English, actors compare with oar Well, Ithtak wsj have better material for form ing rood eompealee la tals country than tbey have to England. The company at the Princess, where I began my Loadoa engagement and played 119 airtata. was not such a bad company In Itself, bat It was unfortunate aad subieotad ta bad sssaam. menu The leading man. who was a very good actor, met with aa aeoldent st the first rehearsal iw uie-i.

-iDis ten the eompany without a head. i nan, tee javeaue man aaa aad some Iron tm with a former who secured Intuaetlea forbidding him to plsy at baa Ftfsnsis. Of ooaxte wa 'bad to fill un tbeea gaps at short notice with tha best men tbst we could secure, and tbe pest were not rery good. Irving has got together a very exoeUent company at the Lyceum, aad his discipline as a stage manager Is so thorough tbat they all work together In perfect harmony. The company which supported me waa not a very numerous one the oast of Othello ia sot eerr iarre.

yoa knew but every member of It was a good artist. I think, however. rem what I saw tbat tha English aotors, as a rule, do not compare favorably with those of our owa country. Maea better companies ran be made up here la a rery short time than eaa be securer! la London. Most of tbe English artists are Ignorant' of the require ments or Bbakespeareea characters.

Tbe Shake spearean drama is seldom played la Loadoa, except at Irving theatre, ana toe a rusts engaged to support ma at tba Princess had been playing oomedy or sensational parts all their Uvea. Perhaps It was more thsa 1 had a right to expect that they should rail at oaee into a aew ana moss aimouit nne or baslness. I am sure tbat all of tbem tried to do their best, and all ware courteous and kind to me, accept ing ail my suggestions xinaiy ana doing their best to carry them Into execution. With a sick wife at home. ana a company to support me woica knew scarcely anything of tha business of tbe Shakespearean drams, yoa eaa see that my heart and hands were full during my engagement at tba Princess The theatre, too, was an unpopular one with tbe class of people to whom Sbakespeere appeals.

Stnoo Fechter bad left It the house had been used for tbe production of sensational dramas. To be sure, tha old building -had been torn down aad a new oae erected la Its place, but tha odor still olaag to ft, and tbls was anotner obstacle to success against which had to eontend. Tbe manager, also, bad been connected with a variety daaoe-bouse, end this was not a pleasant ebaraoter to be introduced by to so critical a psblle as tbat of England. Still, notwithstanding all these stnmbllng-blocks, I am proud to think taat I secured a genuine success even at tbe Princess, and a magnificent one at Irvlng's Lyceum. I am wholly satisfied with my Lon don engagements, aad I left England with great reluctaace.

leaving behind me many true and warm-bearted friends, social and proressionni." Do von Intend to return in tbe future ana carry oat your projected provincial tour asked tbe re porter. I think I shall go back some time next year, but that, of course, will depend upon circumstances. with my wire la bar present condition I cannot in dulge in making plans for engagements too far ahead. All that is settled at present Is my coming tour of the United States. I have a contract with Mr.

Abbev to appear in tbe principal cities of this country next Fall, beginning at my old theatre here la October. Beyond tbat engagement I have as yet no definitely arranged plans for my future movements." PARK DEPARTMENT AFFAIRS. TUB COMMIBSIOKERS BTILL QUARKELIKQ MATTERS DISCUSSED.

A BEPOBT THAT HE IS NOT IK PRISOK GARB DENIED BY WARDEN FOX. It has been rumored for several days that Harry" Genet, of the old Tammany Ring, recent ly sent to the penitentiary for misdemeanor, Is net In prison garb, and is not subjected to the ordinary discipline of tbe institution. A reporter of Thb Truss visited Blackwell's Island yesterday. and had a conversation with Warden Fox concerning the matter. The Warden said that the state ment Is untrue.

Genet Is attired like the rest of the prisoners sentenced for misdemeanor, and Is subjected to the strict rules of the prison. He was at work for a time in tbe garden, but the Warden thought he might be made more useful as a clerk, and for tbe; last month be has employed him in keeping tbe gang list" of tbe prisoners and In copying. At the expiration of tbe term of service of a prisoner now employed In the prison offise, tbe Warden thinks of nutting Genet in bis place, as the prisoner would be a valuable man In tbat position. The prisoners have tbe privilege of seeing whoever tbey like outside ot tbe prison officials, but Genet does not desire to see any persons excepting his family and a few intimate friends. Many persons called to see him during the first few days of his incarceration, but he bas but few callers Bow.

Commissioner Tbomas 8. Brennan said that whenever be had seen Genet in the prison, which was seldom, he was clothed like the other prisoners, and he believed that be was treated by Warden Fox la the same manner as other inmates of uie, peaiteauary are treated.

DOCK VBPABTMZ3T BUSIMU3. At yesterday's meetfng of tha Dock Commissioners, tbe board, la tbe presence of Controller Campbell, opened the proposal received for repairing several old piers and building a sew oae.

Tor repairing tbe piers at tbe foot of Seventeenth, Eighteenth. Thirty-fourth, Fortieth. Forty -seventh, and One Hundred and Twenty-ninth streets. North River, two proposals were received, one from T. Jc A.

Walsh for $30,000, the other from R. Sandford Roes and Joseph B. Sandford for $22,500. For building a new pier near tbe foot of Twenty-second street. North River, there were three bids.

as follows: Josepn waiso, isy.oro: Jona uuiis, R. Sandford Ross aad Joseph B. Sandford, $53,000. The law requires eaoh bid to be accompanied by a certified check oa some national bank for $250 in tbe ease of repairs and $750 la tbe case of the new pier. Gillls's bid in the bitter case was not accompanied by any oheok.

aad tba bids la both oases of R. Sandford Ross and Joseph B. Sandford were accompanied by checks oa the Bank of North America, and that, aot being a national bank, doubts were raised ia the minds of the Comptroller and the Pock Commissioners as to the legality of Ross Sandford' bids. Tha whole subject was therefore laid over until tbe opinion of tbe Corporation Counsel be obtained thereon. On Thursday last tbe Dock Commissioners addressed a telegram and a letter to Got.

Henry V. Crawford was elected Trustee of tha Fifth, and Patriek Carroll of tbe Tenth. Ward Schools. Miss Susan M. Day, assistant teacher ia Primary Department Grammar School No.

58, was fined one month's pay, about $40. for violating the by law prohibiting corporal punishment In striking one of her pupils. When tbe report of tbe Committee on Teachers dismissing tbe appeal of Miss M. E. Neary, Primary Department Grammar School No.

58, from the action of the School Trustees of tbe Twenty-second Ward was called up. Commissioner William Wood opposed its adoption on the ground that the aotlon of tbe Trustees was too severe. By that action Mfss Neary was degraded In rank and fined $170 a year because. It was alleged, tbe general average of ber class bad aot during the year isxooome quite up to the standard. Commissioner Wood hinted tbat tbe real reasons for tbe action of the Trustees were personal differences between the Principal and vice-Principal ot tbe school and Miss Neary, and showed by extracts from school reports and a letter from ex-Superintendent Kiddie that Miss Neary' record, both as a pupil at school at the Normal College and hitherto as a teacher, was remarkably high.

Considerable discussion followed. Commissioners Donnelly and Wetmore arguing for the adoption of the report and Commissioners Wood and Kelly for Its rejection. Tbe report was finally recommitted, after several members of the board had said mat tbey bad not been able to learn from tbe report or the remark's of those who defended it with what offense the young lady was charged. VIOLA TIOX OP TBE LOTTXBT LAWS. Richard K.

Fox and James UcGowan, indicted for misdemeanor in publishing a lottery advertisement, pleaded guilty, in tbe Court of General Sessions, on Tuesday, explaining tbat they had inserted the advertisement complained of because other newspapers did so, and in ignorance of the fact that in so doing they bad violated the law. Recorder Smyth adjourned the matter until yesterday, in order that be might thoroughly examine It. When tbe case was called. District Attorney Rollins said that heretofore otber news- tapers In tbe City bad been in tbe habit of punishing lottery advertisements and notices, not-witastandins- tbe law prohibiting such publication. The defendants had stated to him that they had no wish Intentionally to violate tbe law.

In publishing tbe advertisements complained of tbey bad but followed the example of other new papers, and bad no criminal intent Tbey bad pledged themselves not to violate the law in the future, and in proof of their good faith had thrown out the advertisement complained of. Under tbe circumstances be thought It a case deserving of the leniency ot tbe court. Recorder Smyth said tbat. from tbe facts which had been brought to his knowledge, he thought the recommendation of the District Attorney a very wise one. It was well known tbat heretofore the Lottery law had been simpiy a laughing stock, but an honest effort was now being made to enforce Its provisions.

Tbe defendants had shown a proper spirit in stopping the publication ot the matter complained of and promising not to violate the law in tbe future. Under tbe circumstances, be theugbt the ends of justice would be amply satisfied by a suspension of sentence. His Honor then suspended sentence, reminding Messrs. Fox and McGowan that a repetition of tbe offense would be attended with severe punishment. PASSES QEBS POB EUROPE.
