The CLUBS OF NEw YoRK-One If the most
Interesting unwri.en chapters in the annals of New
York, Is the history fits " clubs" vast amount
OF the genius, energy and moral worth OF this city
has been from time TO time concentrated IN the
. 80 clubs" and their influence on the great move
ments Of the age has been prodigious. THUS we
have had the +" Butt.enders' Club"-aLd The
:" Huge Paw Club"-and the Spartan Club
and the " Snufllng Clab"-aKd last. but not least,
the " Empire Club" with the indomitable and
chlvaric Don Giovanni Of the democracy, Captain
Rynders at its head.


All of these clubs-save the g Empre''-havng
like Napoleon, fulfilled their destiny, have gone TO
the dogs or Texas But a new organization has
Just been Effected which already gives very graft
flying assurance that all the principal elements
the moral and intellectual elements-ol the defunct
clubs, have been re-crea.ed and concentrated in a
more vigorous and effective foim than ever. We
allude to the "Uaion Club" of which Colonel
Webb is the presiding genius, and the Courier and
Enqwirey, the accommodating organ. In this sim
pie announcement, we have probably said enough
to convince nostpeople Of the elevated charac.
ter-the honorable constitution-the extraordi-





the noble object of the "Union Club" But
we may vouchsafe little more. The " Union
Club" will blackball every applicant for men,
bership who does not possess the button
Of the Court of Bankrup.cy-interdicts "long
mines" under the most awful penalties-and in
stead of knocking down voters at the polls, will
restrict itself to knocking down stocks in Wall
street. Billiard tables, and other means Of in door
mill ~. ,IaA. anl nhop0
the most respectable and experienced artists Of
Park Row and Barclay street, have been engaged
for the purpose of procuring a constant supply Of
vegetables for the use OF the "Club."


At present the head quarters Of the +" Club" may
be found in Broadway, not far from Canal street,
but alter the first Of May next the "Unionists'' will
meet in the handsome three-story house, near the
corner of Prince street, built by the Patroon Of
Albany, which they intend fitting up in style of
great elegance. In few days we expect to be
able to publish the constitution, rules and bye
laws OF the Club, which will, we think, prove very
interesting and amusing to our readers.

played to very crowded house. Every seat in
the boxes was occupied, and it was with difficulty
that we squeezed curse Ives into corner in the Sc
cond tier. The part Of " Evelyn" is not particu.
larly fitted for the display Of Mr. Anderson's pow
ers. but his conception Of the character was good,
and although in some minor points it was not car
ried out as we could have desired, it was, on the
whole, an effective and excellent performance.
Chippendae, Jas "Sir john, was worthy Of the high
est commendation and Mr.. Fisher, as " Graves" ("

is very clever actress; but she is not competent
to do full justice to the character of Clara." Al
