The, Dramatic Censorship In England.
9rvn the rall Hall Oatcllr.
The recent intervention of the Lori Cham
,,5. ia r8r(i t0 lg costume has natn
raiiy directed attentlou to the power aui
ontiee e( his offioe. Some Interesting; evidence
on ke8 points was given before a Committee
of the Uouse of Coinnious a conple of years
go by iVrd Sydney and Mr. W. B. Donne.
Lord Byduey was then, as now, Lord Jhaui
berlaiu, and expressed himself quite Bitiaflml
with the authority Tented in his office. His
department had, he said, Bnflioient powers for
all neoessary purposes. lie oould, if he
thought proper, interdict either the produo
tion of a new play or the repetition of an old
one; he exeroised a general supervision over
the internal arrangements of the theatres
under bis jurisdiction, both before and behind
the curtain, in regard to everything affecting
the safety of audience or performers. As to
dramatlo literature Lis powers were absolute
and unlimited. He had only to say, Suoh
and suoh apleoe or part of apieoe is Improper,
and if it were piodnoed on the stage in
defiance of his interdict, he oould stop the
manager's license. He held that he
oould withdraw a lioense in the middle of the
year, or at any moment, if anything were
done by the manager against the tenor of it.
As legaidssuch matters as precautions against
dancer oatchrng fire, etc, he found managers
centrally willing to carry ont his suggestions,
but li'S authority was so far only negative; he
oou'd threaten not to renew the license when
it expired at the end of the year. In 1805
Mr. Mapleaon applied to him to interfere as to
the admission of gentlemen behind the scenes
at her Majesty's Theatre, but he deolined. He
understood that visitors made their way there
without Mr. Mapleson's permiasian, and aooi
dents resulted, some ot the singers' dresses
being barnt; that of Mad'lle lima deMurska
among others. The Lord Chamberlain held
that in that case the responsibility must rest
with the manager, and refused to interpose.
Mr. William Bodham Donna supplied mere
detailed information as to the working of the
censorship. The office of examiner of plays,
which he has filled for some years, was first
established by act of Parliament in 1737.
Walpole was very much annoyed by the
covert bits at himself and Lord Townshend in
the characters of "Peaohnm" and "Looket"
in the Beggar's Opera, and also by a threat
ened continuation of that famous pieoe, under
the title of Polly. A play entitled the Golden
Rump, full of political allusions and grossness,
which was laid before him by the manager of
the Goodman's-fields Theatre, exhausted his
patience, and he brought in the measure now
known as the 10th of George II. All plays
performed at any theatre in Great Britain
must first go through Mr. Donne's hands. In
addition to a modest annual salary, he re
ceives a fee for every pieoe he reads 2 2a.
for five and more acts; XI Is. for less than
five aots; 5s. for a new song. If he finds any
objectionable passages he marks them on the
license, with a direotion to omit them in
representation; if doubtful about the
whole bearing of the pieoe, he refers
it to the Lord Chamberlata to confirm or
reverse his decision upon it. When a lioense
is altogether refused, he is in the habit of
giving a reason for it (although, aooording to
Lotd Sjdasy, not bound to do so), suoh as
"indecent, profane, religiously or politically
objeotionable." Since he entered offioe, from
1857 to 1865, he has read as many as 1800
plays. Only a comparatively small propor
tion of these seven in all has been rejected,
and the number of rejeotions has diminished
very muoh of late years. "All the excisions,"
he said, "wbioh I made in 1865 would not
oooupy more than a sheet of paper; not be
cause I overlooked what was wrong in them,
but beoanse they .did not require it." His
busiest time is in December, just before Box
ing Night; in the course of that month he has
some twenty-seven pantomimes and bur
lesques to read, besides five or six regular
plays intended for production later in the
season. wnen any vroraa nave 10
be omitted be underlines them in red
ink. lie seldom has oooasion to visit a theatre
to see whether his instructions are oarried
out not three times in a year. When he
hears of any transgressions, he "exeoutes jus
tioe at onoe by telling the manager he must
either withdraw his play or mind what is said
to him." All the action of the ballets and
pantomimes is wnueu m aewu, tu aaatuon
to the aiaiogue, dui - gag is Deyona nis
reach. Clown and Pantaloon can say what
they please there is no possibility of pre
venting them. In regard to opera, Mr.
Donne is disposed to be more indulgent than
in regard to the ordinary drama. '1 think,"
he said, "that if there is a musioal version of a
pieoe, it makes a difference, for the story is
then subsidiary to the mnsio. . . . (In
an opera) it must be something almost of a
soandalous charaoter to warrant interference.
Where there is an obvious intention, or a
very strong suspicion of an intention, to make
wrong appear right, or right appear wrong,
. these are the cases in which I interfere; or
those in whioh there is any open scandal, or
any inducement to do wrong is offered. But
stage 'morality is the morality of the
stage, and generally quite as good
as the morality of the literature
of fiction." Mr. Donne holds that the
propriety of a pieoa depends a good deal on
the olrcumstanoes of the day, especially in
the ease of political allusions. As instances
of pieoes prohibited after having onoe passed
the censorship, and having beea actually per
formed, he mentioned Jack cheppara and
Oi'uer 7'it'i. King Lear was also interdicted
during George Hi's madness for thirteen
years; so was Ruy Ma in French before
Queen Victoria's marriage, but it has since
been produced in an Kogllsh version. Scrip
tural subjeots are rigidly prohibited. Onoe
an application was made to license a drama
fnnndarl on the story of Joseph and his
' brethren, bnt it was refused "because it was
almost the Scriptural story; offers were made
to alter ., out it was impossible to unsorip
n.itTa tha r.lot " In another case. The Pro
digal Son, a lioense was granted on the ground
that "the plot of many comedies may really
be said to be the story of a prodigal son."
Th following plays have been rejected during
Mr. Donne's term 01 onice:

of the Reacb-r of the Plava to be panlonlarly
directed to these points, and to oonsMer It his
duty (wltb tbe HslsUtice of a professional
surveyor), annually, or should It be deemed
neeBHHry, more frequently, to report to tbe
Lord Chamberlain the siaie of progress whloh
Is made In these respects, and to oiler any sug
gestions which may advance the objects tue
Lord Chamberlain has In view."
Mr. Donne, it may be added, is disposed to
take rather a hopeful view of the present con
dition and prospects of dramatic literature.
The number of new pieoes aunually produced
has rather deolined within the last twenty
years or thereabouts. He recollects "a time
when at the Surrey alone seven or eight new
pieces were brought out every quarter ot a year,
or even more." On tbe other hand, there has
been "a very remarkable improvement in the
authorship of plays;" "a higher style of
writing is very peroeptible." Mr. Donne
scouts the idea of a decline of the'drama. "It
must be remembered," he says, "that in
looking back we see the top of the mountain
only, the two or three good plays whtoh have
lived, but not the masses of rubbish that were
aoted in those dajs, and that L-.o oinoe sunk
out of sight and mind." Among "the moun
tain tops" of modern dramatio literature Mr.
Donne specifies Richelieu, Lady of Lyons, Vir
ginius. Jon, 7ht Patrician's Daughter, Still
Waters Run Detp (adapted from the French),
The 'J icktl-of-Leave Man (taken from the
French), Arrah-na-Pogue, the Colleen liawn.
These are, he believes, "likely to survive,
ana are oertainly far more deserving of sur
viving than two-thirds of the plays of the last
eentnry ana a nan."
FOREIGN ITEMS.
In the new number of the Fortnightly Re
view there is an artiole whioh, under the guise
ot a fragment of history, is evidently meant
for a bit of satire upon two personages who
are as vet only on the way to being historic.
"Necker and Calonne, an Old Story," Is really
a new story, in eight pages, about two states
men whose names we will not disclose, for
fear of spoiling Professor Beesly's point. A
sentence or two will perhaps do as well as
names:
Calonne (says Professor Beesly) was a man
ahhi lutely free from all prejudice or predlieo
tlon in politics. His ambltlou was not of a lofty
kind, ft amounted merely to a determination
to get to tbe top of the tree, to be looked up to
by good society, to have tbe power of dispensing
favora and distinctions among personage of a
more exalted rank than himself; and he had no
objection to govern well If It conduced to that
result. Calonne oared little for the ap-
Srobation of anv one so long as he could elt in
lgh places. The device of an Assembly
of Notables seemed to blin peculiarly happy.
It was old. It was new. It waa startling. It
was safe. He could leer with one eye at the
ardent champions of reform, while with the
other he winked at the alarmed defenders of
privilege.
Andeotn. Neoker was a muoh better sort
of man. But
His Intellect, cot being under tbe control of
a ationg and simple obaraoter, embarrassed
him by Its very acuteness. Clear-sighted In
details, hazy in bis conception of general prin
ciples, he was eager to strike at this or that
abuse, bnt be shrank with nervous dread from
anything like sys'emallo, coherent thought In
politics. "Cuez Necker," cays M.Henri Mar
tin, "la protestation en faveur des prole tal.-ea
reste a Petal de sentiment." In a word, It was
soft stuff.
The ereat finanoier, too, wrote a "Cours de
Morale Religieuse" just, by the way, as a
, . fln-nou,, in our time has written a oom
on ..Eo08 Homo." The episode ends
with significant abruptness, when Necker
"came into power witn every qnatinoauon ior
governing, exoept a strong oharaoter and some
knowledge of his own intentions." uu me
substantial jus tioe of Mr. Beesly's parallel we
do not pronounce, but it is very ingenious
and very amusing, after the manner in whioh
rebellious Frenchmen write dooks sdoui tne
Roman empire and a wicked Augustus drawn
uncommonly like Napoleon III.
Mrs. Sterlinsr. the distinguished English
actress, in a speech at the dinner of the Dra
matio Association recently, gave the managers
and authors present a bit of her mind on the
subject of modern dramas:
"I thould first suggest to managers to cater
for the higher Instead of tbe lower tastes of the
public, and to see whether there is not a large
class that might be drawn to the theatre by a
I etter style ol entertainment, xo some auuiors
I would say, if we are to have burlesque, let 11
be of the humor that we remember of old, aud
be iuadaol better material tuan Dinger meiu
dies, breakdowns, and wiredrawn puns, i
would advise tbe more serious urumatiut to oe
rea ltllo In higher mutleiathan hansom cabs
and practicable pump, aud to give us charac
ters and Incidents us like the truth ai the
painted scenes belore which they are played."
The onoe celebrated Hungarian insurgent
leader Gbrgey is now actively engaged in soi
entifio pursuits, and professes to have entirely
withdrawn from politics. It is reported at
FeBth, however, that the Emperor, having a
very high opinion of his military talents, has
exDressed a wish that be should be consulted
on various important matters reiauug tu we
, . 1 . A
organization of the new Hungarian army.
(Jorsev IB BlUl so unpopular among ma coun
trymen that no ollioial communications are
made to him by the War Department, but it
hit been observed that he has of late had
frenuent interviews with Count Miko, who is
very intimate with the Emperor, and is a
member of the Hungarian Ministry.
