throughout In admirable style, and reoelved by
Ibe andlence with the Heartiest aoplause. Tbe

C lonel FitEfter a.11 new drama of Wclvrt at
Boy was prod.aee4 last evening at the Arch
Street T beat ve, vtVta all tho accompaniments
f new soeoery, atattling sensation effects,
plrltei actrng, and a a Immense auflienoe la
an Immense utate r-entbuslasoa. Indeed, all
that was mHjisary to make this performance
the most nvecessful-ever given tn this city, was
the dle'ii lout Ion among tbe audience of a few
Slvaon bottles of tbe Colonel's fi pedal Carle d'or
.trfetcn figured so prominently on the stage. If
this feature should be Introduced la the future,
-we hope that due notloe will be -given, so that
-we may be hreere lo do honor to the oocaslon.
Bcrloaaly.kowever, Wolvttot Bay was a suocess,
and we think; 'that Col. Fit Jtgerutd Is to be 00 a
graiulated on that fact as well as on his eaorts to
create a distinctive American drama. As a
pioneer In this field, who has to contend against
many obstacles, his works are enimed to be
Judged with a certain amount of lenlenoy, and
to be considered very mach in the lWat of
experiments. Fuvure playwrights may give u
more elaborate and finished productions, when
the way Is made clear for them, but Colone1
Fltaerald will still deserve a recogultlon of his
aervioee even if his dramas should be doomed
to perlfth In the abyss of time, and their names
and titles be remembered only in tradition. At
the same time, In Justice to the public, to the
author, and to ourselves, we fuel It to be ouf
duty to give our impressions of tne piece pro
duced last evening, without partiality, and to
point out what we consider Us weak p ilots.
Woive at Bay Is In some respects superior to
either of the other dramas given to tbe public
by Colonel Fitzgerald. It Is more enter
kttlnlua than Liyht at List and more
carefully constructed than Tanjica Tnreua.
The plot Is quite simple and not altogether
novel, bnt tbe great bulk of the drama is mado
up of a mass of extraneous mailer which has
no direct connection with the main Issue.
Indeed, this Irrelevancy of the substance to the
subjeot is carried somewhat to an extreme, and
in his tfforts to lntroduos a little of everything
In order to gratify the tastes of everybody, the
aotion Is delayed, tbe climaxes are woakened,
and tbe play unnecessarily length
ened, without any coirespoudlng advan
tage being gained. Judicious pruning,
each as usually follows a flrat
performance, will make tne piece aot better.
Thus, tbe scene in the third aot, where "Jaok
Bomervllle" and "Tom Dolyer" get hilarious
over a couple of bottles of Carle d or, was unne
cessarily prolonged, until it became tantalizing
to tbe andlence, most of whom were strongly
convinced that tbe bottles were selected iroin
tbe choice collection In the author's collar.
Under tbe circumstances, the considerate
aotion of "Tom Dolyer" in summoning each of
tbe ladles to their chamber doors after they had
retired for tbe night, In order to present a glass
of the foaming beverage, is easily understood,
although It bad no particular bearing on the
plot. This feature, however, will probably be
omitted In the future, unless, Indeed, the Colo
nel Intends to keep the thing ap during the run
of the play.
In Wolves at Bay there is a dlsousslon of the
labor question, and tbe main points of the plot
turn upon a strike by the men engaged in "Mr.
Drayton's" mill, under the leadership of a
Villain, "John Llpp." who aspires to tbe hand
of the rich man's daughter. This fellow not
only instigates the men to strike, bat he plies
them with liquor, and enoourages them
to effeot the destruction or "Mr. Drayton"
and "Arthur Levering" by catting away
tbe celebrated trellis bridge on the Calawlssa
Rallroad.so as to precipitate into the chasm the
train of cars which Is bearing them with a
party of soldiers, to the scene of strife. "Luoy
Drayton" hears ot the plot and betakes herself
to the bridge in the middle of the night, olluias
upon it and waves a red lautern to stop the
train. Tbe train la saved, but the locomotive is
precipitated over the bioken bridge into the
chasm, thus producing a grand sensation etl'eo1
for the concluding tableau of the fourth act.
There Is considerable love-making, and the
ingenuous manner in which the lovers 00 me to
the point and make each other aware of their
feelings is particularly charming. The idea of
an amorous bachelor making advances to a not
too reluctant widow while laboring under a
c'am-f rliter indigestion, is certainly novel, if not
elegant. Mr, Craig, who sustained tbe part of
"Jack Bomervllle," acted only too well in this
scene; and without wishing la any way to lu
teriere with the effectiveness of the play or the
enjoyment of any portion of the audlenoe, wo
wonld suggest that a little less of this sort of
thing would be in better taste. A good deal of
base-ball talk Is woven into the dialogue; and
aa this la a subject with which Colonel Fitz
gerald is perfectly familiar, he has peppered the
conversation of his representative base-balllst,
'Tom Dolyere," with all tbe slang terms of the
game, to the huga delight of a large portion of
the audience.
Tbe distribution of the characters was as
follows, and we may remark that they were
generally performed In a creditable manner:
'Lucy Drayton " Mrs. Drew; "Arthur Lever
ing." Mr. Barton Hill; "Mr. Drayton," Mr.
Muckay; "Mr. Jack Komerville." Mr. Oralir;
Tom Dolyee," MUs Fanny Davenport; "Mr.
Leary." Mr. Hoyiler; "Jntio KnUev," Mr. Wal-Hi-;
"John Mpp," Mr. Mnagher; James," Mr.
Ohborue; "Mrs. llarmer Duly," Mrs. Clara F.
Ustdei; "Miss Becky Homervllle." Mrs. Crease:
'Alary Kelsey," Miss 1'rloe.
Wohei at Bay has been put upon the stage la
tbe best style, with handsome new scenery, ap
pointments, effects, etc The following scene
are all good: Tbe west wing of Mr. Drayton's
mansion In tbe valley of the CaUwIssa, by
Hawthorne; The octagon room, by Hawthorne;
The Osk Hall, y Fetters; and the valley with
tbe trellis bridge over the chasm, by Fetters.
At the conclusion or the third aot ''toot Dol
yer" seats himself at the wlndow.aod appa
rently goes to sleep while on guard. The flats
are drawn back and a tableau la disclosed or
"Lucy Drayton" on one aide with her red lan
tern, and on the other a group or the strikers
Tbe meaning of thta effect we are unable to
comprehend. It may be a representation ot
"Tom Dolyer'a" dream, but la this we acknow
ledge our llabllitytobemlstaken.

INDIANS.
I refer to the report of Lieutenant-General
BLeiruvn lor an Instructive atalemeutof ftots
and valuable suggestions In respect to iudiau
a flu Irs. 1 believe 11 mauifesl that an Important
cbauge should be made lu our ino-te of dealing
with the Iudiau s. Wulle good fltn and sound
policy alike require us to sir icily observe ex
isting treaties so long as the Indians maintain
like good faith, wbeu any lriie has violated lis
treaty It should no longer be regarded us a na
tion with which to treat, bat us a dependent
uncivilized people, to be cared for, foil wuen
neceseary, aud governed.
It is manifest that any branch of the public
service cannot be efllciently and economically
managed by two departments of tbe Govern
ment, ir tbe Interior Department can alone
manege Indian affairs, aud tut s save tbe large
expense or the army In the Indian oountry,
very well. But if tbe army must be sept there
for the protection of railroads and frontier set
tlemeuts, why not require tbe army off! jers
to aot aa Indian agents, and thus save alt the
expeuee of tbe civilians employed. Besides, an
aiiny officer has bis military reputation and
commission at stake, and is subjeot to trial by
court-martial f ir any mlscouduct in ottloe.
Thus is a Horded the sirongrat possible security
tbelUovernment can baveioran bouesl aduiiu
lbtrailou of Indian afl'ilrs by oftioera ot tue
army; while the civilian agent, being only a
It mporary officer of tbe Government, and prac
tically exempt from trial and punishment fur
misconduct, gives the G overnment tbe least
posblb'e security for honest admlulstratioa
For the sake of economy to me Government,
for the sake of more eOiulent protection to the
frontier Battlements, and fur tun sake of
Justice to tbe Indians, I recommend that the
management ol Indian affairs be restored to the
War Department, with authority to uiiUa
regulations lor tbelr governmnul and for luelr
protection against lawless whites.
