ANVBEnlExa'a. A Mensemstem IQI6IIIB DREAM.--Shatiospeare'a Midsummer N(ght's Dream is essentially peculiar, not only in kind, but in degree. With the ex ception of The Tempest, there is nothing in dra matic literature that in any way approaches it. It is What its name signifiee—a dream, and a dream of the most beautiful and, at the samo time, grotesque and fgntastical character. The author has filled it with the strangest, oddest and most hwettgrnous objects, and, apparently, in . such confused entanglement that it is not until the drama revolves that We perceive that these characters,like the bits of glass in a kaleidoscope, combine to form a wondrously beautiful and, symmetrical figure. fro-We are introduced to a fairy land whore all , thin4s . move beneath the in• finence of some potent spell. The Athens of the play Is hipal. "Theseus" and "Hyppolyta," who, In fact, serve only as the setting for the beautiful picture, are net real flesh and blood; and even "Bottom" and his crow, "The rude inechanicals That work for bread upon Athenian stalls,. are something more than human hinds. "Boi l tom" is as poetical and fanciful in his way as is "Titania." When she lavishes her tenderest caresses on his ass's head we feel not so much disgust, as a strange sense of pleasure, that the grotesque and the beautiful in poetry should have met so wondrously and strangely with each other. We are in an unreal world, and these shapes that come and'go before us are not more than-the unsubstantial ahadows that people that land of dreams. Their very passions are not of the blood—they are born of a fairy's whim, of the fragrance of a Rimer, and they change and lose their force in accordance with no law of nature. The very rage of the lovers, and their infinite perplexity caused by the mistakes of the mis chievous "Puck," excite no sympathy. They only please us with their beautiful absurdity, and we feel as much inclined to laugh at "Helena," in her piteous flight of wounded feeling and unre quited love, as we do at "Titania" in her strange and unreasonable passion for "Bottom." And even ho does not shock us when he comes forth transformed into an ass. We knew he was one before. It is only a confirmation of our precon ceived idea. He is merely a chrystalized meta -Iphor—an incarnate figure of speech. The whole poem is a fantastical invention filled with unreal characters who flit about amid twilight, flowers, perfumes, moonshine and dew, .who, beneath the green leaves, and surrounded by glittering in sects, tiny genii, malicious sprites, and all the people and the beautiful paraphernalia of the fairy world, pursue their phantoms of passion and desirc,and burlesque the stern realities of life. To attempt to harden this allusion into actual fact and to represent these creatures of the imagination upon the stage, seems almost sacri ligious. It narrows us down to certain painfully hard outlines. It clips the wings of our fancy and forbids us to - minder out of the confines pf fact. We Mow "Bottom" is an ass, but- we would rather see him with our mind's eye and conceive his discordant tones, than have them grate upon our physical hearing. The "Titania" of our fancy may wear spangles, but we do not care tothem glitter before the footlights; and that lithe, g I and mischievous "Puck" is too spiritual for imitation by flesh and blood. The marvelous grace and music of their language Loses half its sweetness when it Is dropped from-a fleshly"tongue, even the most eloquent. We wouddisther declaim it silently in 'our minds and let the mellow syllables make their own dences artienTite — ibiindi. Because this is a Dream of a Midsummer Night we do not wish to have it translated to the stage; but it has been dp4e„ .... and we must make the' Street Theatre last night was 'worthy of the drama just as far, perhaps, as any representation can be. The characters were very w,ell.east, and although nice criticism might make objection to the manner in which the smooth and delicious verse was turned into very commonplace prose by nearly all of the actors, it would be charitable to remember that as some masters have found amplest expression in songs without words, so Shakespeare has written in this dream words that am more beautiful without utterance, and if even the trained tongue of the accomplished elo cutionist would fail to give them half their signs- licence, we need not wonder that ordinary Thes pians are even less successful. The scenic effects produced at the Walnut are unusually good, and give mere than usual pleasure, because the spec tacular drama is often so verbally wretched that we are robbed of much of our gratification in viewing the scenery. It is unnecessary here to particularize; the Whole drama is placed upon the stage in a manner that is a credit to the manage meat. The • costumes are evil, elegant and tasteful; the music is ; delielous, and the transformations brilliant and surprising. There might be more grace in the action of some of the players; we have even heard the vocalism stirpassed, and gazed upon theatrical fairies whose dresses were longer, and whose calves were placed more in accordance with the laws of nature; but taking the performance as a whole, it was really excellent, and will doubtless improve as the actors become accustomed to their parts, and lose that consciousness of playing—that ever pre sent effort at performing which always distin guishes the first representation. The play will probably have, as it certainly deserves, a long run, and we may at some future time venture to criticize it more minutely. And in suggesting that it Is well worth- seeing, we would also urge that the public read the play carefully before they buy, their tickets. The maze In which the char actem are entangled is puzzling in the extreme to those who are not recently familiar with the drama, and it is well to peruse the text, not only to learn to unravel the plot, but to comprehend its beauties in their truest sense. CITY NOTICES. THE GREAT AMERICAN SEWING MACHINE, by which plain and f.aney sewing, overseaming and embroidering upon the edge of the finest fabrics are wally executed, and large and small buttonholes are exquisitely finished, though recently introduced to the public, has, upon its own merits, justly won its way to immense popularity. The tithe will surely come when every well regulated family will have one of these machines In the house. We say without any fear of successful or truthful contradiction, that of all The machines yet offered to the people it is the only pri:feet one.
