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

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.
