THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21, 18G8. T TTTiT) a mnn-n OF NEW BOOKS. REVIEW S hb TnAOKDiiif ; an Essay on the nistrionto Genius of Junina Brutus Booth. By Thomas R. Gould. Published by Ilurd & Houghton. Philadelphia Agents: Claxton, Remsen & Ilaffelflnger. Wo are disposed, like Mr. Gould, to plaoe a pigh estimate on the aotor'a art. Unlike painting and sculpture, it is evanesoent, and xists but for a moment, and the fame of the kistrionio artist, if it survives at all. must urvive only in tradition. The curtain falls, e Btep from the theatre into the cool night ir, the glamour of the mimio scene passes way, the magnetism of the personal presence genius no longer enthralls us, and only mid confused memories of what our ears are heard and our eyes beheld do cer. tun bright Doint8 and exauisite render - gs oi passages dwell in the mind p remind ns of the legitimate olaims of the Mot to the honored title of artist. Notwith standing this, it is certain that, more than any JLher form of art, the histrionio exerts an im mediate and powerful induenoe, and on that (ccount everything should be done in the way elevating the , drama by enoouraglng the test styles of acting, and by holding up the test models for the inspection of actors as ell as audiences. An intelligent critical analysis of a great actor's personations is par cularly valuable, and suoh an analysis Mr. ould has given us in his essay on the genius f the elder Booth. Mr. Gould acknowledges 'imself to have been an enthusiastic admirer 1 Booth, and he claims for him the position the greatest of all actors, and in comparing m with Edmnnd Kean he says: "The recorded Impression left by Keau on the lnds of bis reporters and biographers is of igli'T Rraup aud overwnelraluK energy in irilal seeuee; while Booth Is remembered for s sustained and nil-relating conception of arxcter, Intensely realized, it li true, bat lefly marked by those Ideal trails whloh not ily chnrtned the listener, but accompanied e scholar to bis study, and shed alight on e subtlest and profoundest passage of snake eare. The Imaginative power was so opulent Booth that be multiplied himself In the jpene, and abolished the dullness of the other payers. Filled with the conception oi the bpernatnral himself, he 'shoot the superflex b them.' In Hamlet he made the tread and felt of the 'Ghost' arler; and in Macbeth trans- (rmed, by his presence and action, the three ntastio old women into ministers of fate," Mr. Gould claims to speak of Booth from an qnaintanoe of many years and from an tendance on innnmerable performances. e does not claim that he was always correct, that his powers were always under con- ol, and he says that "Mr. Booth was per- Japa the most unequal of all great actors." tnd in this connection he mentions that for pme cause or other Mr. Booth seemed to play letter to a thin house. The following is Mr. Gould's description of ooth's personal characteristics: "In person Mr. Booth was short, spare, and inroulat; with a head and face of autlque anty, dark hair, blue eyes, a neck aud chest f ample but symmetrical mould, a step and fcoeruerjt elastic, assured, kingly, tils face as pate, wnn mat neauny pallor wmcu is one en of a macnetlo braiu. Throughout this rief. close-knit. Imperial figure, nature had llanted or dirt used her most viial organic brces, and made It the capable servant of the pmmandlnK mind tnat descended Into and lossesbetl it in every fibre. "The airy condensation of his temperament )und fullest expression in his voice.

This charm lay in trie bind, of which his voice was the organ: a biota miraculous organ,' under the sway of a porougnly iuiormlug mind. The chest voice ecame a iountain oi passion ana emotion. he head register gave the 'clear, sliver, icy, epn. awakenlne tones' of the pure intellect. tnd as the luiHginatlon stands, with its beautl 1 and com foiling face, between heart and rain, and marries them with a benedlotlon, lvlne glow to the thoughts and form to the boot ions, so there arose In the intuitive aotor third element of voice, nara to aenae, nut oi fucing, blending, kindling quality, which we bay name tne imaginative, wnica appeareu ow in some single wora, now wnn tne iuu la canon ot tontH in some memorable sentence, nd which distinguished him as an lncompara- le speaker or tne Kngiisn tongue, 'mat voice as guided by a metbod which defied the set tales of elocution.

And he oitne, lu the tul'ness of lime, to gvo them living form, iiitid vi'al motion, and transcendaut xpenim, anil personal uniiy, anu ever unueareu teuiuiu-branoe." In view of the celebrity of Edwin Biotli'S "Ilamlet," we would like to give Mr. Gould's analysU of the father's .peruonation of the same oharaoter, but our space forbids. It is evident that the son's performance is founded In a great measure on that of his father, and that the points in which they differ are all lu favor of the elder Booth, U our opinion. Mr. Gould gives descriptions of Booth's aoting in the following oharaoters: 'Riohard III," "Ilamlet," "Shylook," "Iago," "Othello," "Maobeth," "Lear," "Casstus," "Sir Giles Overreach," "Luke," in Mas'singer'fl play of 7 he City Madam, adapted to the msdern stage under the name of Riches; "Sir Edward Morti mer," "Brutus," "Pesoara," "Reuben Glen roy,"in Townand Country; "Ootavian," In The Mountaineers "Bertram," "Pierre," and the "Stranger." This little work is exceedingly Interesting to all lovers of dramatio art, more so, indeed, than a biography of the comparatively un eventful life of the aotor would be. It deals with him as an artist and with his perform' ances as works of art, and brief as is the record, it is all that we are likely to have as a memo rial of what Junius Brutus Booth was ou the stage. The book is embellished with a very fine photograph of a bust of Booth, exeouted by the author. Our Rci-frs and ocb Rights; or, Outlines of the United States Government. Ily Aaron Willis. Published by N. Tibbals & Co., New York. Parmelee h Co., No. 738 San eom street, Philadelphia. The design of this work is to give the reader a correct idea of the organization and mode of operation of the United States Government. It treats of the functions of the different de partments and different officers of the Gov ernment, as limited and denned iu the Consti tution, with a large amount of other informa tion which every citizen ought to be ac quainted with. Judge Willis, of New York, has endeavored to set forth the whole subject of our governmental structure and polioy in a clear and understandable manner; and whether as a text-book for schools or a hand-book for students, business men, or politicians, it is the fullest and most reliable that we have hitherto seen. The subjects upon which it treats are those which every body ought to be familjar with, but about which there is nevertheless a vast amount of popular ignorance, and, as the author says in his preface, "In no country is suoh know ledge of so great importance as in ours, where every citizen may make his influence felt in the administration of publio affairs, and where that influence always tells for good or evil." The book is clearly printed and substantially bound, and it will be sold only to subscribers.
