THE DAILY . EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1868, Mis Ilateman la Mosptillial'g New IMar, "Pietra." From the London Timt, December 7. In Herr Motentbrs ner play. Pietra, Miss Halomsn bas achieved a auecess that worthily follows that of Leah, nor is there an; reason to doubt tbe correctness of the statement made last nlRht by Air. Bdckstone atit-r the fall of the curtain, amid loud and unanimous applause, that tie piece will be repeated every evening until the ct"e of tbe ladj's engagement on the 24th lust. Whatever question there may be as to the merit or the play conslrleied by itself, there can be none with respect to tbe uctrees. Gradually an! surely she ruiied her audience to a pitch of enthusiasm, which expressed Itself nt the end of every act, and more strongly than ever nt the termination ot the piece. Although written by the same author, Pie'ra Is totally dissimilar lu character to Leah, being a bona fide tragedy, In the sense understood by our la'hers, with dialogue written in blauk Terse, and spoken by pcrsontores in ideal cos tumes. altLuelber denoting a disposition to soar above tiia'pioa'c reality which has lately ruled tbe atape. The action of Pie ra is supposed to occur in Italy during oue of tbe earlier struggles betweeu the Guclphs and Gbibellmcs, the historical per sou mentioned, though not seen, being tho noto riously cruel (ihibelline Ez-zelino dt Kimano. Tbe scene is laid in and about a castle on the Btenta, belonging to Tisodl Com pen I (Mr. Chip pendale), a zealous partisan, of the Uuelpbs, who e bslred of tho opposite faction bus been nourished by the cruel death inflicted on his eons by EzzeliDO. At the commencement of the Btory ho has gained a signal victory over his enemies, and his iolo surviving child, Fietra (Miss Btitemao), tralucd in her father's animosi ties, ha been searching that held of conflict in hopes ot fludlug the body of a son of Ezzelino reported to be among the slain. Her nurse Marca, who hns been her companion in the search, has given some signs of tenderness, and "lias theieby incurred the suspicion of Ttso's stern castellan, GasparUe (Mr. Howe), who is ipsis Guephis Ouephior; but Pietra, who is equally without lear aud without reproach, Touches for the integrity of hr nurse. So com pletely occupied is her miud with thoughts of sU iie aud faction that she turns a deal' ear to the wooing of ber amiable cousin Leoniaio (Mr. W. Gordon), deeming her heart wholly unlike that ot the rest of ber sex. Marca, when alone with her charge, ventures-to lutrust her with the por tentous secret, that from the heaps of slain she has taken a youth, dying or dead, and has con cealed him in her chamber, on account of his supposed resent blauce to her own son. Tho decoration, representing the ba'l of the castle, changes to a picture of this very room, and Lere Pietra, who keeps her nurse's secret, rteholds tbe lifeless form ot tbo yonni; Guibelline. This Bight Inquires her with a strange emotion, which eains intensity when the youth, who is notdfal, recovers from his torpor, and lu a half-dreamy t-tato addresses her In toue3 ot admlra lOD. Forpetiul of the prejudices of her childhood she resolves to rave him. and ref jses to unbolt fho door for the entrance of ber father and Gasparde, till she has secured his safety by removing- him to her own room, which adjoins that of Matca. With Gaparde, who at last enters with Tiso, she has more difficulty than she expected; lor he has missed a jouug man, evidently of noble l auk, whom be observed amoue the enemy's forces, and a track of blood convinces him that the object of his quest has been secreted somewhere in the casilo by Marca. The attempt of GaspurJe to enter her chamber she is able to resist on the plea ot maiden modesty, and during tbe alterca tion that ensues Marca enters, who, knowing nothing of what has passed between Piotra and tbe young Ub.ibe.linc, tears that she has been 'betrayed, but is sooq uudeceived, when the cur tain thai concealed him is withdrawn, and the conch Is shown without an occupant. Tne pur suers are about torctiie to continue their search in another part of the castle, when Lconisio arrives wi'h the intelliaence thut the missing man is Manfred, the natural son of Ezzelino, the murderer of Pietra's brother. Hence, when Pietra is again left alone, a revulsion occurs in ber feelings, aud it is In no soft mood that she accosts Manfred, wben be reappears from his second hiding place. Manfred. Derceivine the state of the case, desires nothing but deuti at her hands, but again ber sentiment change, and as she hears the return of the pursuers she warns him back to her chamber. TheGuelph and Ghibeliine embrace each other, aud thus enas tne nrst act. Tbe decoration Is not changed inthesoconl, but wo are still in Marca's room, when Pietra Boiritles her nurse by revealiug the iaut that she is in love with the young stranger. They both, however, resolve to protect Manfred, and wheo he reappears he is counselled bv Pietra lo ooen an iuner door in her chamber, and thence to escape through a crypt to the back of the Brenta, having first unlocked a gate with a key which be receives frjm her hands. The sound of a chapel bell on tho opposite bank is to be the signal of his safety. No sooner is he fled than Tiso enters in a state of somnambu lism, and increases the horror of Pietra by narratincr the details of his children's deaths. and lamenting that tbe son of the murderer has escaped his vigilance. When he has recovered from his traiico, Gasparde comes in with ; the tiding1 that a herald is at the castle gate ' speaking with Leonisio, and that Manfred is not yet discovered. Pietra' chamber must now be searched, and while Gasparde ij engaged in that task, Leonisio brings in the herald's message, which is to the effect that Alberigo, the nephew of Ezzelino, and commander of his army, is ready to conclude a treaty ot peace if Manfred is restored. Peace with the hated Ezzelino does . sot, of course, accord with the honor of Tiso, and be is greatly shocked to find that his - daughter is more pacifically inclined than him ' self. A further comproniUing faet Is the dis covery in Pietra'c room of a sardonyx, eoeraved with the arms of Ezzelino, and Gasparde now bethinks biojeelf of the inner door leadiug to tbe crypt. Pursuit by that path is resolved upon, retainers are summoned, but just wben the destruction of Manfred appears inevitable, Pietra, who has been in an agocy of suspense, hean the chapel bell, which assures her of bis safety. In the third act Pietra, who has returned to her chamber from the crypt, whither the accom panied ber father, is aroused Irom the reverie into which she has sunk by tbe strange informa tion that tbe castle is about to be attacked by a party of Ghlbelliues, furnished, by the treason of Manfred, with tbe means of entering tbe gate by the river. Love now gives way to the m tensest hate, and Pietra implores hT cousin Leonisio to drag the base young man into her presence, it he is able to secure him. The last scene is the crypr, wbitber Pietra rushes to meet Minified. She finds him mortally wounded by LeonlBlo, but with brea'h euougtt to tell her that the key was forcibly obtained from him by his cousin Alberigo. Thereupon, after the ap proved fashion of old tragedy, she stabs herself, and dies avowing to Leonisio ber love for Man fred. In the German play the transmission of the key from Manfred to Alberigo is more 1 clearly shown, but the compression that has . reduced five acts to three involves the erasure of . Alberigo's name from the list of drarnuiia fersonce. ' It U possible that the mere description of the plot ot P teira will cause some to regard the play as an attempt on the part of a Shake spearian Geiman to produce J a novel Komeo and Juliet," varied from the older one by the fierce attributes with wb'ch the principal figure 1 is endowed. Be that as it may, there is no doub t ' that it atlordsaeanvason which Miss Bateman is able to display all her power, and that In filling np tbe outline oi Mosenthal she has achieved a creation of her own. That stern figure which . appears at the beginning, and pertains to a heart that has never been touched by a tender erao- - ' tion, teems likely to inspire respect rather than sympathy, till the ice is broken, ana then all the varieties of passion ara revealed by tbe artist ' till tbey ' reach their climax in the burst of ' hatred to which she gives utterance when Pietra i believes Manfred to be false. This electrified the audience much alter tbe manner of tbe ' famous imprecation In "Leah," and, like that, ' was iollowed by a scene which drew many ..tears. The grief of Pietra over tbe dead body of ber lover, though the situation is by no means novel, Is elaborated so as to produce a '. wonderful picturesque effect. A great point, too. is made at the cud of the second act, liy action rather than words Pietra has Indicated tbe anxiety that she feels during tbe interval between the escape of her lover from the castle and the signal of the ebapcl bell. During ranch of the dialogue In this situation she Is merely a Whtchcr in the background; but she makes the aiioicure sha-fl ber anxiety until the outcry of. rupture that f llow the sound of the bell comes a a relict to all. The other characters of minor nil ortance are fairly played, and wo mav slva a woru of especial prso to Mr. Kendall's per f oi m au ce ot the youthful Man'red. But Pietrt bercelf is the all-nbsnrbinir figure in thn piclure, end will doubtless ba an important ajomon to me lepertory orsius fiateman. ; "In the Secret." I A Precedent for Mr. Dkmpli'a vnlimlin mr. j - i. v u vviuubtsaj u ui rewier in antlclpitioo of an adverse vote in Parliament has been sought in the reilgnation of lord Goderich (afterwards Lord Kipon) in iota, it was ra ner, nowevcr, from luteruat dissensions in bis own Cabinet than from anv other cuw,e that Lord Goderich retiied. He bad been accepted as a stop-gap Premier on the death of Cannin.:, but, though au excellent de partmental Minister, he deficient in the ability and spirit required for the leadership of rather a turbulent party at a 1 1 mum time, ins appointment oi wr. Hemes, a politician of the Liverpool school, ns Chan cellor ot the Exchequer, had estranged a section of the Whigs who wished to see Lord Althorp at the Treasury. Domestic affliction added to his distress of mind, and when several of bis col leagues threatened to desert, Le resigned in despair afte barely six months of office. Another precedent of a voluntary resignation in anllc'pation of impending ..efeat is furnished by Lord North's career. Tho incident is de scribed both In Wraxall's "Historical Memoirs" and In Lord Holland's "Memoirs." The account given by the latter is lively and amusiug. He bad the facts, he tella us, from his uncle Fita patrick. In the beglnuing of 1782 throe suc cessive resolutions, implying in suostance a want oi conuueoce in tue Ministers, though varied in language to meot the rules of the House of Commons, had been proposud by the Whis within a tew weeks. Lord North had obtained a victory on each division, but his majority was constantly dwindling. From twenty-nine on the 27th of February it had fallen to ten a few days after, was one less on the 15th of March, uud threatened to disappear altogether on a motion of Lord Surrey's lor the dismist-al of tbo Cabinet, which stood for the 20th. On that day the House was crowded with au anxious audience expecting a decisive strug gle. It was known, however, to the chief men amotg the .Whigs that the Premier had satisfied himxelf ot tho hopelessness of his position, and had persuaded the King reluc tantly to permit his resignation. The substance of the victory, however, would not satisfy hts opponents, who were anxious to have the show ot it as well. They were uuxious, therefore, that Lord Suriej's motion should come on before the resignation of Lord North was otli dally announced, "Ihuf 1ub removal from oflicc might be more manifestly and formally tho act of the House of Commou3." Lord North and Lord Surrey rose together. It was a race between them which phould first catch the Speaker's eje. "Atier much clamor, disorder, a.d s( me insignificant speeches on order." sava Lord Holland, "Mr. Fox, with great quiclrness and address moved, as the most regular mctuoa oi extricating tne JUouse irom its em barrassment, 'That Lord Surrey now be heard.' But Lord North, with yet more admirable pre sence oi mind, mixed with measantrv. rose im mediately and said, 'I rise to speak to that motion,' and as his reason for opposing It, sta'ed his resignation -and the dissolution of the Ministry. The House, satisfied, became im patient, and ai'ier some ineffectual ellor's of Fpeakers on both sides to procure a hearing, au adjournment took plHce " Lord North's pleasantry, however, was not jet exhausted, and he had another opportu nity of taking a good-natured revenge on his successful opponents. The day had been re markably cold, with a fall ot puow. Wben the House dispersed "Bnow was fulling aud the night was tremendous." Members, expecting a late Bitting, had dismissed their carriage.1, and Mr9. Bennet'fl room at the door was crowded. Lord North was more fortunate. His carriage was at nonn, "He put luto it one or two of bis friends, whom he had invited to go home with bim. and turning to the crowd, chiefly composed of his bitter enemies, in the midt of their triumph. exclaimed, in thi3 hour of defeat and supposed nionificatiou, wlih admirab'e good-humor and piea'-untry: 'I have my carriage. You see, ecnneinin, tne aovautacn ot oeing in the Bccret, Good-Dight.' Pall Mall Gazette. An Old Challenge Accepted. Tbe Pad Ma i Gazette says: "About fifteen years ago a certain Father Ron, of the order of jeus, exclaimed at the end ot a series or mis siorary tervlces held at Frankforton-the-Main. from the pulpit: 'If any one can produce before the juridical faculty of Heidelberg or Bohn a book wiitien by a Jesuit in which, according to tbe judgment of that faculty, the simple axiom "l'be end justifies the means" is found, either in those or in similar word, I shall pay to that pirton wno produces sucn a oooic one thousand florins Kbeuish currency. Whosoever, on tho other hand, without bavins produced this nroof. ascribes to the Jesuits' order that digraceful noctrine, eitner oy word ot moutn or in writing, blm I deolare to be a dishonorable slanderer.' Neither of tbe universities, however. Jeelintr in clint d to ask lor tbe deposition of the sum mentioned, tho reverend father repeated his oner nom time to time at thediaerent missions. Some one at lust teems to have takn tbe mat ter fccriously, and a very interesting 'case' will probably come out of lu "A letter is going the rounds of the Swiss papets, addressed to this Father Koh, who at this moment happens to be in Switzerland, written by Dr. Franz Huber, of Berne, dated tbe 18th cf October. It concludes as follows: 'Although I do not know how you, having taken the vow of personal poverty, can promise to pav a thousand florins, nevertheless 1 am ready to brim; the demanded proof. If vou are ready to stand by your public declaration, and will p'pim uui auy junuicai lauuuy 10 UHuenu&B luu arbitration. I consider the latter point as necessary, since tbe Heldeloere faculty has replied to my question regarding It tba. it could not, as long as the desire to that effect was uot expressed by both parties, undertake tbe arbi trament in tbe matter. I look forward to your equally public answer, and sign Dr. Franz Huber.' No reply has as jet been forthcoming." A Travelling Dentist. Remarkable character: A travelling surgeon drntist, who has taken a room In tbe North Adams Iloute. and sticks up his advertising bills on the pillars of the piazza, and all about town. He is a tall, slim young man, six feet to, dressed in u couutrj-niade coat of light blue (taken, as he tells me, in exchange tor dental operations), black pantaloons, and ciumsv cowhide boots. Self-conceit is very strongly expressed in bis air; and a doctor once told me that he owed his lire to that quality j for, by keeping himself so stiffly up- ripDt, ne opens nis cnet, ana counteracts a consumptive tendency. He is not only a den tist, which trade he follows temporarily, but a lie t used preacher of the Baptist persua sion, and is now on hit way to the West to seek a place of settlement in his spiritual voca tion. Whatever education he possesses, he has acquired bv his own exertious since the age of twenvy-oue be Demg now tweniy-iour. vte talk together very freely; and he has given me an account, among other matters, of all his love atlars, which are rather curious, as illustrative of the life of a smart young country fellow in relation to the gentle sex. Nothing can exceed the exoulslte eclf-conceit whieh characterizes thete confidences, and which is expressed ininu tably in bis tace. hi upturned nose, and moutn so at to be truly a icancature; and he seems strangely to hud as much food for his passion in having been jilted once or twice as in his con quests, it is curious to notioe bis revengetul it elmg apaiust the false ones hidden from him self, however, under the cuise of reliirlous intemt, and desire that they may be cured of then lollies. uawnorne t American NoteBook$, COTTON AND FLAX, , BAIL mjC'i AND OANVA.B,- Ol all number aud brand, ir.nl IbhIii.
