When thus powdered the particles are so minute that it often takes half an hotir for them to settle to the bottom of a vessel full of water. This fact makes it evident that a stream may carry large quantities of minerals rich hi metals.

Reiffn of the Great Irish Actor In th Eighteenth Century. The son of an Irish barrister, himself intended for the bar, lack of tueaii and consciousness of ability sent Quip, on to the stage. ' lie made his first success In 1720, when he persuaded Christopher Rich to allow him to appear as Falstaff In "The Merry Wivca of Windsor." After Booth's death he advanced still further in public esteem by what be modestly described on the playbill as "his attempt" to follow that tragedian In his greatest part of Cato. He so delighted the aury nce by his attempt that after his delivery of the line "Thanks to the gods, my boy has done his duty!" they cried: "Booth ovcdoue! Booth outdone!" And after he had spoken the then famous soliloquy on the Immortality of the soul the enthusiasm reached such a pitch that in answer to a vociferous demand for an encore Quin was obliged to repeat the speech. From this night Quin as an actor reigned supreme for ten years. It was a solemn reign, dignified, weighty, traditional. He was unsurpassed In such characters as Falstaff and Sir John Brute, but in tragedy he did no more than uphold with fine elocution, ponderous majesty and rugged independence that solemn unreality of speech and action which both in England and France was then considered the appropriate expression ' of tragic sentiment. As in France Le Kain was the first to restore nature to tragic acting, so did Garrick in England by a similar return to nature expose the dullness, the lifelessness of the settled methods of the actors of the type of Quin. And

Quin had too much good sense not to

see it himself, for as a man he was the rather coarse embodiment of that rough

which we admire and respect In Dr, Johnson.

The few of Quin's sayings preserved to us almost make one regret that be had no Boswell by his side. Lords and

Disnops. ciergy and gentry, all were

represented in the circles of Quin's many friends, wha delighted in bis wit and conversation. He could hold his own in an argument with any man. One Instance must suffice. At some gathering Bishop Warburton, dictatorial and overbearing, was arguing ia support of royal prerogative. Quin said he was a republican and thought that perhaps even the execution of Charles I. by his subjects might be Justified. "Aye," asked the Indignant Warburton, "by what law?" "By all the laws he Lad left them." answered Quin. The rhocked bishop then cited the wrath of the divine judgment as visited upon the regicides; they all, he said (though it is not strictly true), had come to violent ends. "I would not advise your lordship," said Quin, "to make use of that inference, for if I am not mistaken that was the case with, the twelve apostles." Ilorace Walpble greatly admired thi3 Instance of the player's readiness and aptness of retort. H. B. IrTing in Fortnightly Review.
