Thoorljrlnal tragedy of 1'hatitra ( I'htdre, ot lia
me) was presented lor the first time ai the Ftieatre
du lioto, Kurguiidc, by tne Royal Company, on
.lay, January 1, 1077.
The plot, to a considerab'e extent, appertains to
Ihe om tireek mythological diama, inter voyen with
supposititious and historical incidents. "1 hoseut,"
KnRof Athens, has, b Ins first wi!e, a youn and
noble on called 'Uippolytus." and by his soooud
wile, "I hajdra," abo a son. who, However, docs not
appear among- the diamatis persona) "Theseus,"
lon absent from his k'niidom, and supposed to
have Riven himself up to some new amours, is
mourned ai dead. In tho mran'imo "I'naedra"
eonseives an unholy passion for hor son-in-iaw,
Uippolytus," whioh she seeks in vain to conceal,
and in tne endeavor to crash out whioh and appease
the sods, she persecutes him with relentless oruolty.
lie, bein unaware of Thiedra's" lata! passlou,
attributes her persecutions to her jealous enmity to
"Aricia," an Athenian princes hold in bondage at
his lather's court, with whom he is deeply
enamored, and who returns his love. There is,
however, a latal bar to thoir tin ou, owinv to ran
corous b ood between their ancestors. Doubly tor
tared, "Hlppoivtus" determines to leave the spot,
tn the vain tiope ot finding oblivion and discovering;
il bis lather still lives ) before departing-, however,
ne desirts to see "Phiedra." The latter, being torn
with passion, desires death to appease hor anguish,
and on tho appeal ot tier confidant ' Cfinone,"oon
lenses tier determination to die, to conceal hnrshame
and it morse. At tins moment "l'harira" loarnj
that the tieath of "ihescuo" is a certainty , and tiie
people are discussing wtio; her kIio ("I'b.iedra"), her
ion, or " Ancia," then lutio better than a 'lave at the
court, shall be hio ("Theneus"') suoccssor. Trior to
bis departure, "Hippo!) tus," in an interview with
"Aricia," confesses his love, and warns her of the
dangers which surround her. "fhajdra," in an in
fciiview with "Uippolytus," believing 'Thosous '
dead, reveals to him the reasons ot her apparent
hate, and confesses that he is tire object of hor adora
tion. I'erceivina that be does not rociprooate her
paosion, she desires death at his hands, and on his
relneal she snatches his sword from him, but is hur
ried despairingly away by ' tEnono." tXM 9ti
Intelligence arrives that "Thosous" has absolutely
rem tried, and sock iter presenoe with "Hippo
lyvus." Urged by ,,lEuon"nnd tho jealous anger
attendant on the oonlesion ot a rojtctea lover, sho
at once charges "Uippolytus" with the attempt to
ii.doce her to defile nor marriage vows during tho
absence ot "Thesou," and, as a proof ot bis per
fidy, she exhibits his sword (a piecious gilt from nis
lather), which was left in her hands.
"Thewns," loin by anguish, la confirmed in ttie
apparent baceneps ot his son by "Uuoue,w and im
plores the vengeance of Neptune and the (rods to
consume him during the eniei'i rise on watch bets
about to depart, after taunting him with his perfidy,
believing that "liippo ytus' " avowed love for
"Aricia ' is but a subterluge to escape his father's
anger. "Putetfra's" anguish is inoreasod by the
knowledge gleaned from "(Eoono" that "Hippo
ljtu" real y is enamored of "Aricia," and she goes
mad with remorse at the knowledge that she has
been the means 01 destroying "U'PPOlytun," and
ebocomes to "Theseus" but to comers her crime,
and die in his j resenco the tragedy terminating
with ber death.
the, strong points in this treat work are the scene
between "Paajdia" and ' Uippolytus," those bo
twttu ber and "tEnone," her grand soliloquies, aud
tbe foei.es with "ibeeens."

notoriously unable to agree among themselves.
W clip the following, which Is of Interest to
shipmasters, from the Liverpool (England) Jour,
sal of Commerce, of a recent date:
What are the American Consul's Powers'!
To the Iditor of the Journal of Commerce.
Sir: Captain O. J. Bishop, master of the ship T.
J. Southard, of Richmond, Maine, U. fc., having
gone to sea under protest of tbe American Consul
at this port, I should feel obliged by your giving
publicity to the following statement of the captain,
which may be of use to those masters and mer
chants who do not understand the exact reading
of tbe law, and what the law actually is in refe
rence to the disrating of officers and seamen In
American ships. As shipmasters at present nn
Oersland the law of tbe UiAted States, a master haa
nower to disrate an officer or seaman after an ao-
sence of twenty-four bours without leave. For
twenty. four hours' absence, without leave, an
officer or seaman forfeits all waist due, and after
forty -eight hours be forfeits all wages, goods and
chattels.. In some Instances three days' pay Is de
ducted tor every day's absence, instead of the full
penalty being Imposed. The facts in connection
imth the T. J Southard are these: When the ship
arrived in Liverpool laden with deals, and was
placed In a berth for discharge, the captain ordered
tbe ohief mate to see that the orew ass u ted In land
tnv the carzo. and tbat the seoond mate superin.
tended and assisted them. Tbe second mate ob
jected, and went on snore to toe uonsui, wnerenpon
the Consul sent for the captain, wbo made a state,
ment at his office. The Consul then ordered the log
book to be produced, and tbeoooK naving oeen tor
warded, nothing more transpired for a tew days,
and ths second mate absented himself from the ship,
The captain afterwards had occasion to go to
the Consul's office, and the Consul then told blm
that he would have to pay three months' wsges
eitra for tbe second mate on account of potting
Aim to superintend and assist in tbe discharging
tit the rargo. Aftr this the steward, who had also
abvraled himself, applied for bis discharge, al
though the articles stated that he and tbe neeond
tnte bad shipped lor a voyage from New York to
timber port in North America, thence to Liver
pool ana oiner roreign ports, ana d&ck io tne
United States. The captain told him that be oould
not glyo blm mora than one-tblrd of his wages
doe op to tbe arrival in port, as that was the Con
sul's order, and the law of the United (States pro
vided that an officer or seaman could claim that
amount, but did not state that tbe captain was lia
ble to pay more. The captain, therefore, paid tbe
advance of one-third, but the steward was not
satisfied, and again went to tbe Consul, and the
rnptain was called npon once more to appear.
The Consul having heard the captain, held that be
bad acted rightly nd legally, and sent tbe steward
on board ship. In tbe meantime, however, tbe
ceplain bad employed another steward, owing to
tbe desertion or absence oi his first steward; but
wben tbe old steward came on board he set htm to
clean the brass work and puint, and to cleat the
cabin floors, which he considered part ot a
steward's duty, and which the steward had
actually been In the habit of doing on the voyage
from New York rooud to Liverpool. The captain
further told the steward that he most go as a
passenger, and the steward was not allowed
to cook or to wait. The Consul held the
tblp's papers, and the ship was detained two
days In consequence. During this time the
steward went on shore, where be met tbe second
mate, who advised him to go again to the
ttonsnl, as he would get three months' extra pay.
He went to tbe Contal's office, and did not again
return to tbe ship. The T. J. Southard then cleared
at tbe custom-bouse, and the captain applied at the
Consul's office for the ship's papers, but the Consul
detained her register, crew list, and articles, and
refused to deliver them up unless the captain paid
XSUf Ktra for tbe second mate and steward, which,
oi course, he refused to do, stating that he would
not allow his owners to be robbed In any such
manner, but that he would let tbe case go to the
United (Suites Supreme Courts. The vt-sse! then
had to go to sea without tbe second mate or stew
ard, as tbe captain could not Induce them to return
ou board, and the ship sailed under protest. Tbe
roaster of the T. J. Southard Is naturally very
much surprised at the action adopted by the Oou
snl, and cannot understand that the articles made
out toy a notary in the United States are, according
to the Consul's view, not worth the paper npon
which they are written, and that the Consul is
armed with supreme power to act contrary to the
letter and spirit of all tbe acts of Congress relating
to tbe mercantile marine which have guided mat
ters of b b:ps for years past. The master also com
plains of very great irregularity in the conduct of
buBiness at tbe American Consular olllce at Liver-
fiool, which ennses great annoyance and throws
mmense difficulties In tbe way of shipmasters.
Surely, sir, these are matters which demand some
investigation, or some explanation, from tbe
American Consul and Vice-consul at this port.
Yours, &o., An Ambrioam Captain.
