with tho knowledge that It will be something
worthy of their beat rnirards. Tho production
of such operas as this and Tlie Marriage of

C'harie Fechter, the Tragedian.
The first appearance In this city of Mr. Charles
Fechter, the Anglo-Franco-Teutonic tragedian,
which takes place at the Walnut Street Theatre this
evening, will be quite an event In the theatrical
world. Mr. Fechtor's advent has been heralded by
such a blast of trumpets that there is a groat deal or
curiosity on the part or play-goers to see him, espe
cially In the role selected for the opening night that
or "Hamlet." Mr. Fechter was born in Hanway
yard, Oxtord Btreet, London, about the year 1823,
and la consequently abont arty-seven years of age.
Ills father was a German, his mother an English
woman, and he was educated entirely In France, so
that the three leading nationalities of Europe have
contributed to his physical and intellectual composi
tion. For some years his attention was directed to
sculpture, but he early manifested an In
clination for the stage, and when but seven
teen years or age he made his debut in
Le Mari de la Veuve at the Balle Mollere, IVrig, a
dingy little place. Although entirely without expe
rience, his aotlng on thus oocaslon wag so rail or pro
mise that it Insured him an Introduction to Scribe.
A series or lessons at the Paris Conservatory fol
lowed. But after a rew weeks' tuition, we are told
be despaired or acquiring valuable knowledge In an
Institution where four different professors, in as
many weeks, had read to him one part after four
different fashions. So he quitted the Conservatory
and returned to his studio. He accepted directly,
however, an offer to Join a travelling troupe in Italy,
and although compelled by the pecuniary ill success
ot the venture to again take up the chisel, he was
so little disheartened as to set aside a diploma
authorizing him to compete as a sculptor for the
prix de Rome, and to profit, in preference, by an
authoiicatlon entitling him to a hearing at '.the
Comedlu Francaise. From that day Mr. Fechter's
career as an actor was uninterrupted. He was part
of the company of the Comedle for eighteen months,
and he laid on the stage or the first theatre ot
France the foundation or a thorough ra
mlllarity with his art. Leaving this house,
lie passed a year in Berlin, whence he
transferred his services to the Vaudeville, then to
the Ambigu, then to the Varictes, and then to the
Theatre Uistorique. At the latter theatre he was
the original personator or "The Corslcan Brothers,'
and or "Horace" in Pauline. Subsequently, at the
Vaudeville, he "created" the part or "Armaud" in La
Davie avx Camelias (Camille), and that or "Raphael"
tn Lee Fillee de Marbre, and th sn accepted the pro
posals or the Porte St. Martin management, and fig
ured there In Le File de la Nuit, La Belle Oabrielle, and
kindred works. Suited by physical qualities and by
early picturesque surroundings for the delineation
or romantlo characters, he won tor himself in them
a great popular reputation. This portion or his
career was varied by a proresslonal visit to Berlin,
which occurred in the year 1846.
Having now reached the zenith or his
fame as a French romanclst, he turned
his attention to the English stage, and,
after studying the language with the Itev.
Mr. Bellew, a sensational preacher of note, he ap
peared In 1860, uuder the management of Mr. Har
ris, In Iluy Bias at the rnnccss' Theatre, London.
Whatever may be the merits of his acting, his suc
cess was so immediate and so decided that he at
once determined to forsake the French stage and to
plve his whole energy to the easy task or delighting
English audiences. He soon attacked "Hamlet,"
and, casting aside certain traditions or the English
stage, created no little sensation by his
Innovations, especially that ot a flaxen
wig. His suocess In this Shakespearian cnaractcr tea
him to essay "Othello" in 1S61, at the Princess'. His
success In this role by no means equalled that which
,' had attended his "Hamlet," and soon after he re
' turned to his French repertoire, am during the re
mainder of his engagement at this theatre devoted
his attention to a class or plays or which The Comiean
Brothere may be taken as a type. In 1968 he trans
ferred himself to the Lyceum, of which he became
lessee, his first Important production here having
been John Brongham'i adaptation or The Duke's
llvtto, whloh ensured the success of his management.
Bel Demonio followed, and at long Intervals Hamlet
was revived, with stage appointments of unusual
excellence and attraction. He relied, however,
mainly ; upon the more fervid of the French
dramas, until he brought ont Bulwer's Lady
of Lyons, creating a profound sensation in
the part or "Claude Melnotte." His next
great suocess was In the dramatization or 'o Tho
roughfare, a Christmas story by Charles Dickens and
Wilkle Collins, which bad been written with the
special view of supplying Mr. Fechter with a part in
whloh hi imperfections of pronunciation would not
he Inappropriate. Ho Tltorouqhfare was brought out
, at the Adelphl on Christmas day, isqT, during Mr.
Dickens' last sojourn in the United States, the dra
matization having been the Joint production of
Wllklo ColllnB, Benjamin Webster, and Mr. Fechter
himself. His personation in this play ot the role of
"Oberseiaer," although not regarded as equal or his
early triumphs on the London stage, was regarded
as superior to any or his later achievements at the
Lvceum.
Last year It was announced authoritatively that
Mr. Fechter would pay a proresslonal visli to thU
couulir, and bis advent was heralded .by a
highly enlogtstlo article In the August , num
ber of the Atlantis Honthlp, from the
pen or Charles Dickons, which, of Itanlf, would hare
been snfllclont to ensuro him a patlont hearing be
fore an American audience. He arrived In Now
York ai ont the first of the present year, and made
his first appearance at Nihlo's Garden, on the 10th of
January. Two weeks wero devoted to Ruy Ulan,
another fortnight to The Duke'e Motto, and a single
week to IlamUU Mr. Fechter then Journeyed to
Boston, where he played "llamlot" during his Prat
week and "Ruj 111 as" during the second, winding
up his brtof engagement with a slnglo representation
of The l,aAy of Lyon, on Friday evening of last
week.
Such, in brief, has been the lire of an actor who
has had a very successful career on bith tho French
and English stages. The diversity of opinion with
which his performances In this country have been
received Is already familiar to our readers, and we
torbear All comment upon it until he has made his
debut upon tho stage or this olty.
Ilr-i.Mnoi.i). The St. I.onis Republican comes
to us with a largo part of its space occu
pied with Hclmbold's advertisements. It says
that "while many of our ctistomors shrng thoir
shoulders at the price of a fourth, a third, or a
half a column, Holmbold gobbles half-a-dozon
columns at a time, and wishes tho chargos were
higher, so that he, who can afford to pay hand
somely, might come nearer monopolizing all tho
space allotted to advertisements. 'With a good
preparation," say, lioimboid, -judicious ana
liberal advertising cannot bo too dear.' We
know nothing personally about tho merits of
his medicines, but it certainly is a fact that im
mense quantities of them are sold, and It suits
our purpose to attribute the fact to tho character
and the amount of advertising done by the
"Prince of liuchu."'

of its completion; while, In tho development of the
extensive agricultural and mineral resources of Vlr.
glnia and West Virginia it possesses, along It w
line, the elements of a large and prolltaWo local
business.
Thus the great Interests, both general and local,
which demand the completion of the CnKSATEAEK
and Ohio Railkoad to tbe etrlo river, afford the
surest guarantee of Its success and value, and REN
DER IT TIIK MOST IMPORTANT AND SUBSTAN

Its superiority as an East and West route, and the
promise of an immense and profitable trade await
ing Its completion, have drawn to It the attention
and co-operatlon of prominent Capitalists and Rail
road men of this City, of sound Judgment and known
Integrity, whose connection with It, together with,
that of eminent citizens and business men of Vir

of West Virginia, 2 miles, and there remain but 29
miles (now partially constructed) to be completed,
