THE FRENCH PLAYWRIGHT.
W take the following from mo of an in
tenrnf ing Bcries of articles on "The Men of
Ihe (Second J'mpiro," in course of publication
in the Fall MM iiazttU:
Unfortunately, tlx'sn argvnunnts of Froneh
liboraliHin usually fail to oonviiuio oither his
MujcRty's I'onrtiors or his Majesty's ('(-nnure.
Most iiupm-iidiats are thinly porNiimlnil that
the empire runs danger of destruction twenty
times a week, and overy music-hull pout who
fireR ft Hcpiib of doggerel at il is a foriiiida'ilo
nrtilleryman who must be suppressed. I was
lately talking to a favorite French playwright,
M. Victor Coeasse. F.verybody knows this
gifted author. It is ho who wrote ''La Sardine
a l'huile," which had a run of three huudrod
nights at the Falais Koyal, and "L'Kpouso do
mun Voisin," which reaped such a woll-de-erved
Kuecess at the Varietes. When I saw
M. Coi asse'he had just terminated a new piece
destined to eclipse all his preceding onosj but
Le was melancholy, and with despair on his
brow was pondering over a manuscript, pro
fusely adorned with red scratches and margi
nal notes in red ink. "What are these
scrntclios ?" I asked. "Those are the correc
tions .f' the Censure," he said; "there are
about a hundred of them, I believe; see if you
tan make anything of them; I can't. There
was a few minutes' silence, during which M.
Victor CociT.se gazed ruefully at mo through
his eyeglass, trying to divine what, I thought
of it. "The Censure," ho said, "is a collec
tion of ollK'iiil journalists and government
clerks; there are ton or twoivo of them.
Sometimes you get a journalist to read your
play, sometimes you get n clerk; it's all a toss
up I got a clerk. The- fellow is lean and
mischievous. The first thing he did when ho
saw my piny was to run his pen through the
title a splendid title, too: 'Co iju'il coute de
se bathe.' 'Monsieur,' said he, when
he gave me back the manuscript,
'1 can't let that title pass. Uuinors
of hostilities with 1'mssin are again rife, and
it would be highly inexpedient to prejudice
ihe public against war by reminding them
that lighting costs money.' "Jut. Monsieur,' I
exclaimed, 'the wars 1 have treated of are do
mestic wars between man and wife; 1 know
nothing of the others.' 'Very likely,' he an
swered, 'but that doesn't change the title.
There is another thing, too. M. lialancher,
the ridiculous husband in the piece, is a
deputy and a knight of the Legion of Honor;
he has made his fortune by gambling on
change, ami his antecedents are shady; on
the other hand, the virtuous young man of
the play is culled Woiiget. and has been ruined
by the' Credit Mobilier. All (his must be
changed. The morality of the piece would be
enhanced if it were the virtuous young man
whose antecediuts were shady and whose for
tune had been lost, not won. by gambling on
'change. The name of Kuuget must, how
ever, be altered. Houget was the Christian
mime of M. de Lisle, who wrote the "Mar
seillaise;" it is also nearly akin to the word
roiiffi, which might give the public to infer
that virtue grew exclusively in the ranks of
the republicans. As to the name Jlalanehcr,
I need not point out how totally unfitting it is
for a deputy and a knight of Ihe Legion of
Honor, The deputy should have a name to
command respect, and it would be good, I
think, if you were to divell upon the fact that
he had become enriched, not impoverished,
by the Credit Mobilier; this would help to re
More public confidence in an institution
which has been maliciously attacked by a
spirit of factious opposition. The other cor
rections you will find in the margin. Good
morning.'" "Of course," went on M. Victor
Cocasse, "I felt disposed to howl and to
throw the manuscript at his head, but what
would have been the use? The dictum of
that Vandal is law, and I must submit."
tSo saying, the chagrined playwright heaved
a sigh and made a cigarette to comfort him
self withal. As for mo, I turned over the
leaves of the manuscript and tried to under
staud the corrections in it. I should confess
here that my former experiences of M.
Cocasse's plays had not led me to the conclu
sion that a judicious amount of censorship
was at all undesirable. There wore passages
in the "Sardine a l huile" which had sent mo
home marvelling, and whole scenes in
'L'F.pouse demon Voisin" which had inclined
me to believe that the Censure must have
been asleep when it set its vise to the play.
When I took "Co m'il coute do se battre,"
I rather hoped to find that the Ceusuro had
awoke at last, and I was half prepared to learn
that it had been reading ju. (Jocasso a small
marginal lecture on his fondness for divorce
court incidents; but I had not far to read before
discovering my mistake The only passages
touched were those which seemed to roileet
in any way on constituted authorities; but the
Ncenes between the virtuous young man and
the wife of Balaneher (renewed from CJeuesis,
chapter xxxix), those between M. lialancher
himself and Mad'llo Justine, the soubrette,
and finally the conclusion of the piece, where
the virtuous young man draws a written con
fession from the tail pocket of his coat and
explains to lialancher w hat lialancher would
probably much rather have ignored all these
scenes of lofty morality had been allowed to
Stand. "Come, come," I said, laying down
the manuscript, "do you really believe that
any lialancher on earth would consent to give
his daughter to the virtuous young man after
a confession of that kind?"' "(uo voulez
vous?" responded Cocasse; "il faut un de
nouement, and ho looked at mo with
Huprrise not unminglod with pity:
'I am afraid you don't ipiito enter
into the spirit of the piece," ho remarked;
'I am of the realistic school, and this is
a sketch from nature." "Yus, 1 could see
that; but what if you had toned down nature
a few shades, don't you think the effect would
have been as good V" M. Cocasse took three
whiffs at his cigarette, gazod at me again
through his eyeglass, and then shook his
head. "I see what you are. drivini; at," ho
nam, uiu mai won i uo. ion think my
piece immoral, and you would have liked mo
to write one in the old style; virtue dejected
in the first act, combatant in the second, and
triumphant in the third; conclusion, t renin
lous music, and emotion in the boxes. Inci
dents throughout of strict propricry; young
man a tttoi Ot rw young girl ditto; Ua
lancher rich and paternal, M'uie lialancher
sympathetic and virtuous; ambitious villain
in the background, and two detectives in the
shifts to lay hold of him before the curtain
falls. This would have been what
I too should have liked if it had
only been original and paying; but it isn't
cither one or the other. The public in this
country are tired of that sort of drama; they
want novelty and they want emotion. Of
conrse, if I chose I could give them emotion
enough by combining with a machinist and
getting up a melodrama in five acts with a
guillotine, a steamboat, and a roal water-mill;
but then 1 should have to divide the profits in
unequal portions with the machinist he tak
ing the lugger and 1 the lesser part which
would be pleasant only for the machinist.
' What roiliains to mo thereforo is novelty
jjQvclty pure and simple, stum machine a ct.
peur. The field is a wide one, yon will niy;
but yon forget the Censure which
sstand in one's way to mount
guard over all subjects that affect
politics, religion, or political economy. The
Censure has forbidden the plays of Victor
Hugo, and half of those of Alexandre Dumas
the elder. Why? Solely because thoro are a
few political ideas scattered about them, a
few lines hero and there in defense of liberty.
What would it, sevvo me then if I could write
a play like 'ltuy Jilas," or the 'Chevalier de
Maison Ron go,' when Corneillo himself, if ho
had lived during' this reign, would never havo
seen his 'Cinna' performed? The famous
lines
"I.e sac ties I'iniipiiKiies ct. le plllaee des vllles,
I.es proscription ct U m Kiierres elvllcs.
Sent, lcs item.' siincMats ilnnt, .niruwe a fult cholx
I'our niontcr snr le irone ct nous iloninT sen lois"
would been voted seditious. Corneille would
have been set down as a Republican. Look
what, happened to l'onsard. lief ore the Second
Empire he wrote 'Lucreee,' his best work by
far; but 'Lucreee' contained this passage:
"Entln Home nc ineurt si, pur an brusque eifori,
Vac crisis in: v lent. 1'ai rui'lier a la inort,
I'our la rcRencrcr ct In! rendrc I tunc,
lie son ormicli cicint pour maimer la nnnuue.
Pour U't'lle 'ante r ilorir en clle nn. pubcrte
11 n'y a qu'iin seal moyen, et, e'est, la liliurtej''
And so 'Lucreee' is no longer played. Turn
ing now to Moli- re, he would have been in as
bad a way as (.Vrncillo hail he flourished
nowadays. What chance would his "TartunV
have had of being accepted when, only a few
months ago, the Censure cut Victorion Sardou's
'Devote' to pieces, and made him change the
title of it into 'Kcraphine'? If 'Tartu Ho' is
occasionally played now at tho 1'raneais and
the Odeon, it is because it is more than L'OO
years old, and because everybody knows it
by heart." "And what, do you conclude from
nil this?" I asked. "I conclude this," replied
Cocasse, "that if tho French stage is more
corrupt at present than it ever was before,
the fault is not ours, but the Government's.
The Censure leaves us no choice of subjects.
If we attack oppression, superstition, or hy
pocrisy, it comes down on us in tho name of
order and religion. If we write a drama to
prove the necessity of divorce, it upbraids us
lor immorality. If wo denounce joint-stock
robberies, it throws our plays into
Ihe waste-paper basket as calculated to
cause pertuibatiou in commercial circles.
The only themes it leaves us to develop as we
please are Reduction and adultery. Those are
the sops it throws us. "lie as immoral as vou
please,' say the censors, 'rail at virtue, sneer
at propriety, make light of family ties, but
don Usurer at us or our gendarmes. And the
consequenee of all this is that we do what you
see. Those of us who havo genius, like F.mile
Angier, Alexandre I umas the younger, orVic
torien Sardou. make themselves the apostles
of adultery, and write 'l'aul Forestier,' 'Les
blees de Madame Aubray,' or "Maison Neuve,'
by way of proving"Miat women who have for
gotten tho seventh commandment are mostly
victims to bo esteemed and pitied. Tho lesser
stars of the profession, like myself, content
ourselves with relating the connubial woes of
lialancher, to which the Censure gives full
assent so long only as lialancher is not called
a deputy or a knight of the Legion of Honor."
Here. Cocasse threw down his cigarette and
laughed. "(live me the manuscript," he
cried; "I'll make of lialancher a Chinese mau
ilarin and la morale sera Mauve."

The House being definitively prorogued,
there is but little political news to record.
Tho event of tho hour is the biography of
Napoleon III, which will appear in a few days,
by Louis LTbnch, better known under tho
pseudonym of "Forragus," editor of La
Clueit', which scarlet-bound weekly pamphlet
has replaced tho tlame-colored and fiery Lan
ti riie. "Ferragus" begins by a description of
the sovereign's physiognomy. "'Tho head,"
writes Louis llbach, "would indicate
obstinacy were not persistence in hesi
tation revealed by particular signs. The
forehead is clouded; the eyes sweet, dull,
of a hue peculiar to China, implying
more imagination than judgment and yet
more dreaminess than imagination; tho pupil
has the dull tint of tho wing of a blue butter
fly, and possesses a misty hue; the nose is
long, prominent, and indicates no vivacity. I
do not like a statesman to wear moustaches,
especially such long ones as those of his Ma
jesty, liy concealing his mouth ho easily
hides the impotence of his smile and the
weak point in his thought. Moustaches are
too oiten adopted by people whose characters
are void of any originality. You will never
see them worn by men of cenius." Louis
Ulbach next explains the well-known
mystic tendencies of Napoleon's mind. He
reminds his readers of nn engraving
which had a great, success at tho time of
its appearance. Tho subject of tho print
was tho First Emperor in the clouds, hovering
uoove ino weeping willows oi rr. Helena,
leaning toward his son, while France, in
tears, with imlilted arms, turns for heln to
this Olympus. Friuce Louis Napoleon had a
vision of this subject in his childhood. Edu

certain degree of romance to his studies and
to his regrets; who mingled the sound of the

easily imbued with sentiment, ho interpreted

feminine ;";..,', according to his tempera
ment, the legend of which ho was the heir,
and he converted it rather into a mystic re
ligion than into an opinion. He repudiated
the man of the nduiijotv m j of the Colonne
Vendome; and as soon as ho could do as he
pleased, he placed in its stead nn almost deiiied
Napoleon. The description given by lioranger
in his song was lud calculated to produce any
effect on the mind of tho man who only
views modern realities through a Ftopia. and
who consented to Lis own apotheosis, now to
bo seen on the recently-built wing of his
palace, wherein he is represented with un
covered legs, his head crowned, and, in tact,
as a demi-god. FnswerviiiL' in his .'eiiHe ob

Until my mission is fulfilled I am not in dan

Ulbach passes to external indications, and re
lates UiV follvwing incident; "A writer,

Ihe only confidence he ever made in his life?
However that may be, on tho throne as in
cxilo, at the Tuileries as in the fortress
of Ham, the acts of Louis Napo
leon assume a mystery and a prestige
which bear the stamp of conspiracy. It is
not alone the result of education; it is the
natural characteristic of his temperament.
Men who aro timid with women have at times
bruspie and sudden outbursts. They only
throw off their hatiitual reserve to startle f he
world by thunderbolts.' T have but time for
one more quotation: "Tho Emperor does
not like discussion. He listens without an
swering. He interrogates in order fo prepare
his reply, but not to receive advice. It is
often at night that he makes up his mind,
and as soon as he awakes he writes to dismiss
a Minister or issue a manifesto. He believes
in himself which is strength: but in himself
alone- which is weakness. Nevertheless, he
is accessible to all modern ideas, against
which he never raises an objection."

Dxcllliiu Scene in n London Tlicmrc "l.nrv

approached too near one of the trays of the
burning composition, her dress limited, and In
an instant she was enveloped ill llames. The
audience (says the Star) rose in a dale of sud

and boxes leaped on to the stage, and threw their
coats over the actress, who preserved the utmost
cooliics throughout the trying t-ccne. The cur
tain fell, hut was raised shortly afterwards, hi
compliance with the demand of the anxious
spectators, and it was then discovered that
though the slight dress worn on the occasion
had been completely destroveri. Mari'llo Schnei
der bad fortunately escaped without injury.
An eye-witness thus describes the paiufully
thrilling scene:
"In the last scene of Orpin e a.r Fuft occurs

one side and Pluto on the other, she Htiinriiny;

been at least 1:2 feet. The actors closed round
her, but she broke lrom them. '.Jupiter' caught
her, and with his mantle, which lie had torn
from his shoulders attempted to stiilu the flames.
As an opening occurred in the. crowd, 1 could
see the jirhiiii donna struggling on the ground

"Some gentlemen sprang trout the pit boxes
and assisted in throwing coats or whatever
came to hand about her. Just then the curtain
was dropped out. It seemed an age before it
rose again. It was pushed about by the assist

aud screams were heard. A lew of the actors

to-morrow night. The prima douiia left the
theatre in about an hour after the accident for
