DawJaeJtircrioDwii Color Dlind First JUiht Performance, Acton Und or or Oter-rate Themselves. iChlcaso HoralJ.r la my leisure momenta I Lava written reminiscences of a loa end very happy career on the stage, and among the huadred and one amusing occurrences none can excel the chapter of accidents that happened to 'The ShaUaihrAar." oa its first night. Everything went well until myecene, ia whicli I describe the fox hunt, to attend which Conn steals 'So aire Foley's horeo. The public took fire bifore I expected, and exploded in the wrong place. This took me by surprise and I orjrot the words. Tarnint to Alme. Toalsl Iaaid: "What ia it?" Bae replied: "1 don't know," and there we stood. 1 made up the rest of the speech as best I coal J, or rather staggered through it. In the second act, when a front scene should Lave been drawn to discover the rained abbey by moonlight, with the silver ripple the moon made cn the waters, tüere was a long wait. The slow music was played Spain atd again. I became dreadfully impatient, when Tommy Bardos, the gasman, who managed a'.l the lime-light efloct?, inciadirg the mocn, rushed toward me with despair convulsing his features. "V7hat s tbe mutter? ' I cried. 'Ob, eir, the moon has busied." Ha meant that the lees which is focused on the circular orifice representing the mooa had broken utder tte h?at. "No matter." I cried, "draw the scene," Tommy tore his hair when, on discovering Matt Lforpan's lovely work, a round black hole in the (ky represented a total eclipse. Nevertheless, the water below showed the rippiirg reflection of the satellite absentee. Tommy bad fcrotten "to tarn o3 the ripple' A roar of lauster saluted the blunder. But all this was nothing compared to what occurred in the last scene of the play when Molineux has to search for the wound in Kiachela'a body inflicted by Conn's pistol shut. The text directs Molineux to feel the breast of Kinchela's ccat, exclaiming: "The bullet entered here, bat something has arrested its progress. Ah! this pockethook has sived his life!" Montague, who played Molineax, could find no pocketbook. I heard him whisper: "Where's the pocketbook?" "Oh, Lord," murmured Kinchela, "I forerot, it'a in my tail pocket." Montague rolled him over, and extracting the book from that spot, continued, without thinking: "The bullet entered here," etc. The Homeric xoar of laughter, in which every one on the stage pined, shook the bullding. I tried to speak the rest cf my part, but how I got the few words out I cannot remember. In the Winter Garden opened its doors in New York with a version of "The Cricket on tha Hearth," rechristenei "Dot," n which play the character of Caleb Plummer had been written for Jefferson, who was then emerging from obscarity. It was July. I was staying ia New?ort. The theatrical season was to open n September. The parts had been seat out to the company. In a few days I received a visit from Jefierson. He cimo to decline the part. He said he had appeared in the character at Baltimore and elsewhere, and had failed dismally in it. I assured him that my Caleb was another kind of character there was nothing dismal about it. Still he refused to risk it. I pointed out to him that only a few days intervened before the opening of the house. We had no other play ready and no scenery In the new building. We had no one else to play the part. At last he reluctantly consented to play It If he was allowed to perform on the same night ths character of Solon Shingle, which he regarded aahls "war horse." Of course this was yielded. We assembled to rehearse "Dat." After the first scene I took Jefferson a3ide and said to him: "I say, Joe, don't sulk over the part You may as well rehearse properly." "I am not sulking at all," he exclaimed. "You see I am light In saying the part don't suit me." I Presently I detected the error. He had mistaken the key and was playing Caleb in a melancholy minor instead of a brilliant major. I asked him to sit in my author's chair facing the scene while I rehearsed the rest of the part for him. He did so and watched me as I proceeded to give an imitation of himself as ne should have drawn the character. He shifted about uneasily for some time he had caught the ides of the childish old man, until at last he jumped no, crying: I seel All right I did nut understand it before. I can do iL" MAi ' waa produced ani the conixiim scored one ot the greatest successes of his career. In 1805 he arrived in London from Australia, where he had been starring. He was desirous of appearing in the Eogllsa metropolis, but all hia pieces had been performed there, and managers declined to give him an opening unless he could appear in eome thing new. He offered them his old play, "Hip Van Winkle." The piece had been presented by Hackett and subsequently by Burke. Managers returned it as being too utterly bad. So he came to me for help. Af ler turning various subjects over in my mind, it occurred to me that an entirely new version of Kip could be made Hip aa a young mm, the thrif tlesi vagabond, the joy of the boys and girls and dogs of the village, a kind of Xutch Bhanghrann. The Idea was presented to Jefierson, who declined to see it. He could see the we ird.alovenly old drunk; ard, but a young Rip in curly, brown wig, a young scamp, waa out of his preconception. 1 pointed out that there is no in terest in old men, they had no fature, no one cart s what becomes ot them, and a drunken old slouch conveys so pleasure aa a contemplation. Still he shirked Rip in that shape; but aal failed to see it in any othor light, he had no alternative but to accept the proposal. I reminded him of oar disagreement over Caleb Plummer, but he held back hia confidence in the proposed version. A few weeks afterward, while the play waa In rehearsal, be came to me and took it all back. "I don't think," said he, "I could play the old piece now. You have completely dethroned tbe character I conceived from Burke." Jefierson was color-blind, though not so completely so as Burton. Burton, confident, saw himself in characters he coald not represent ; Jefferson, lacking in confidence, could not see himself in the parts for which he was best fitted. The instances of perverted vision In our art are so numerous that clearness of judgment on one'a self in such matters seems to be the exception. The artist, as a rule, undervalues what he or she does with the greatest ease, and therefore what ia done best. They cannot see that effort and exertion are the signs, as they are necessary results, of incompetency. Tbe actor see himself, and not his part, and he fails to understand that the best part Is the part teat suited to him, and the worst part in s piece is that to which he Is unsaited. To play a part in your own mind is one thin, at to play it in the minds of the epectators is another. I believe that I am the only Hamlet on the stags, and if I hay not appeared in the character, it if because i feel that I could find no one else to hare my conviction on the subject. But I shall die in that faith, as Barton earned to the grave hia conviction that the world was blind to his Triplet, as the world woald.b to xoj iUaljt, Jq Mtuf any-

Concerning the time for the march to be taken up, he refuted to glrs any definite information, but it Is inferred that it will be near April 1. He say: tbe organization is more powerful than ever before, and that this winter every effort will be made to prevail upon Congress to c??n the country, bat Ehonld they refuse to do this, there Is no doubt but that trouble will ensue. Couch will give the matter his personal attention this winter at Washirgton. A. Story About Uean Ilichmond. The following story in regard to the late Dean Ilichmond a reporter cl the St. Louis Globe-Democrat claims to have received from a railroad man, who alleged that it was true, as he was there : "It happened up in New York in let me Ete V, 1 believe. Dean Ilichmond had an oflice in Buffalo then, in a little eeven-ty-nine tnilrting, that he held sole pcfs-eesicn cf. Well, one clay while the eld rran was ecribblln away you know he wrote a hand in comparison with which Horace Greeley's writing was like print a fellcw that had a lot of shingles piled up at a station fifty or sixty miles down the Cf ntral, walked in. Dean looked up and asked: 'Whatd ye want?' "I've go some abing.'s down here I want to sell you.' 'Well, you go back home, and when I want 'tm I'll s-nd for 'em.' and the old man began ecnbb'.ing egain.' "About three months afterwards the ebicf le men wanted to go to Albany for something or other, and wroto to Richmond asking for a pass. In a day or two he got a letter about eight words long, written oa plain note piper and signed 'Dean Ilichmond.' Tr-.ere wasn't a man in that town that could make out any of it except the signature, but the shingle speculator supposed it was Dean's way of makmg out a pais, so he took the train for Albany end presented it to the conductor, who glanced at it, said. 'All right," and handed it back to him. Well sir, he traveled four weeks on that pieceof paper, until one dav he landed in Buflalo again. Passing Richmond's office, he thought he'd drop in and thank the old man for his courtesy, He said: 'Mr. Bichmcnd, I am very much obliged to yon for that pa a. " 'What pass? was the gruff response. " 'Why, that pass you sent me a month or two ago.' " l didn't send you a pace." '"Yes, you c'U; Lere it Ja,' Eäidthe Ehirele man, producing the paper. "Old Dean took it, studied over it a minute, got purple in the face, and shout ed in a voice trembling with anger: V by, you tool you, that ain't no pass,' and then shaking it in Lis visitor's face, he pointed at it and adei a yell: That says: Why in h I don't 'you send me them shingles? Dean Richmond. D'ye understand that, you iduu' "The shingle man beat a hasty retreat. and it took the old man a week to cool down."

A special to the Advertiser fro.a .Laufaala, tells or a horrible murder in Henry County. Two sons of Bradley Johnson, exShe rid of that County, Robert and James. cot drunk on Thursday, and in cold blood butchered an older brother named Charles, aged twenty-seven. The mur derers are aged eighteen and twenty trerreetively. Their father. when he went to his murdered sons rescue, was made by the two younger sons to kr.ee! on the floor and beg for mercy. Tbeir old mother came into the room and tried to separate them. She was knocked on the head by tbe eons and horribly punished. Their brother-in-law and an other broth er, Len, also drunk, were made to leave the house. When the murderers found their brother was dead, one whistled and the other danced in his blood. The sur rounding country is greatly excited and the latest newaia that lynching is almost certain. The victim was asleep when his brothers began their murderous work. Presbyterian Conference. Louisville, December 16. The commit tees of the Northern and Southern General Assemblies of the Presbyterian Church of America, appointed at the last annual ses sion to confer upon the subject of organ ized union and the issues dividing the two branches of the church, concluded their meeting to-night The sessions were secret, but it is understood that an adjournment took place without any definite ac tion having been azreed upon. Rev. Dr. Joseph It. Wilson, of the Saathern church. wno was made secretary or the confer ence, stated that another joint session of the Committees wou'd be held before the general assemblies convened next May. The time and place, howeve'. have not yet been determined uncn. Members of the committees declined io atate the reasons for the adjournment with out having settled upon any recommendtion to the general assemblies, but natural inference la that they were unable to dis pose of some questions at Issue. Possible New States. Niw York, December 1C A Washington special says that there is every indicacatlon that the Territories of Dakota, Washington, Montana, and possibly Utah, will be admitted into Statehood. While Utah has adopted a new constitution, which prohibits the perpetuity of polygamy within the Territory, Congress will make the provision that in the event of the Ter ritory's admission in the Union of States, mat clause ox ine constitutiDnannot baa disturbed without the consent of Conrress. If matters not, however; if they are admitted at this session they will not be granted tbe tight of national franchise until 1832. Tbe same special says that Jamea A. McKenzie, of Kentucky, will . probabl j be tbe next illnlster to Mexico. Cat Oat Iter Tongue. Mcridian, Miss., December 15.
