Kctn'a "Othello."
A correspondent of the New York Clipper
gives the following Interesting reminiscences of
Kean's performance of Othello:
1More than a year since I accidentally encoun
ered an old gentleman who had once seen the elder
Kean perform Othello at a theatre In Dublin. The
following was the description given me, as well as I
remember It:
I did not get to the theatre until the laoond act was on
Em'i entranoe to Deidemona from the ship waa the
moit perfect exhibition of stair effeot I ever witnessed,
liis eager at en, outstretched arms and 4aaoing eye were
things! shall never Bee again. Uis apnarh to Camo
"Michael, look you to the guard to night,' had in it the
command of the general and the reqaest ef a trusting
friend. But when ne dashed on afterward and threw up
the swords to stop the affray, bis aotion had something in
it like the boumii of & Hoa int the old Roman
circus. How indignation fairly blazed in hla voice, as,
alter swiftly and hotly recounting the enormity of the
offense his officers had committed, he said : "' ris mon
strous!" The reproof to (Jaseio was exquisitely musical.
He walked slowly and majestically up to the fallen lieu
tenant, observed him attentively as he hung his bead,
paused for a long time, as if struggling between the
promptings of love and those of dut y, and finally, in a low,
eweet, sad voice, mellow and tender as a llnte, he called
to him "Oassio!" The other, with an effort, looked up.
"I love thee'1 Cassio clasped his hands, as if in hope of
forgiveness "but never more be officer of mine!" A wail
Of anguish broke from the degraded and disappointed
Soldier: his general quickly turned his face aside, as if to
bide bis own griof, and went slowly up the stage.
The third act was supernatural, Nothing can be
imagined so effective as was its alternation
of light and shade. All the first speech ea
were subdued and quiet. Everything about it then re
minded me of the calm before a storm. The first eleotrio
flash followed the warning of Iago, "My lore', beware of
jealousy." Yet even the speech succeeding, "Way, why
Is this f Tbink'st thou I'd lead a life of jealousy 1" eto.,
was, as it were, laughed through; though I mn-a confess
there was an nnderourrent of uneasiness in this jooularity
perfectly apparent. But when the tempest burst it was
appalling. A a icy perspiration broke out all over me.
When Othello seized lago by the throat and looked into
his eyes, even the traitor's face seemed to te scorched by
the terrible saze. He writhed, bold devil as he was, under
such furv. My words are absolutely powerless to give the
faintest idea of the scene.
The old gentleman who witnessed the above per
formance lives In Baltimore, and has seen many
Othellos since; bathe says the only one wnlcn
reminded lilm in any respect of the pewer and
beauty of Edmund Kean's was Mr. E l ward Daven
port's. One especial point of resemblance was Mr.
Davenport's delivery of the speech containing the
words: "I could have borne that too well, very
well," etc. I forget how It begins, but It Is la
Act IV.
14 Kean's walk was something marvellous. It's a pity
our tragedians do not walk, oetter. Davenport's, I
think, is perfect; but he la almost alone In tale pecu
liarity. Booth's is ungraceful in nearly all his prts,
Adams' is awkward, Barren's U stagey, James Wal
laces Is well enough in the Drat acts ef the "Iron
Mask" and one or two other plars, Mayo's is next to
Davenport's. But most of our uotors, In my opinion,
tread the stage by no means as gracefully as they
might. W.M.
"The Soldier' Daughter."
In connection with the performance of the
comedy of The Soldier's Daughter, announced
for Mr. Adam Everly's benefit to-morrow even
ing at the Arch Street Theatre, the following
Information about the play and its author will
bo of Interest:
Andrew Cherry, the author of The SoUier'a Dawih
tr, was an actor of repute upen the London stage,
and from the practical knowledge of the clap-traps
of tils profession, availed himself of a time to pro
duce this play when England was In a perfect blaze
of patriotism ; when every man was a volunteer, and
every boy a soldier, anxious to defend his native
land from the threatened invasion of Bonaparte. At
Buch a time, with such a theme, upon every tongae,
not to have applauded patriotic speeches, uttered by
a young and handsome woman, would have been
worse than treason; the author, therefore, risked no
failure, for he had carried hla audience by a coup ie
main.
No play has been more roughly handled by critics,
or more warmly applauded by tne audience fuuteiu
bled to witness Us representation; and, although
the characters belong to a past age, Governor
Ueartall, Widow C'heerly, and Timothy Quaint,
will aiways keep It ;ainoiig the catalogue of acting
Plays, the dashing style of the laughing young
widow making her a favorite part wlili actresses of
eminence! to select for their debut, before a strange
audience ; and improbable as the incidents may be,
they never fall to meet the approbation of the audi
ence, who, having eDjoyed a hearty laugh, are not so
captious when leaving the theatre, as to Una fault
With the author of their amusement.

Progress of the Work.
The building of the Northern Paclflo Railroad
(bfgun July last) Is being pushed forward with great
energy from both extremities of the line. Several
thousand men are employed in Minnesota and on
the Pacific coast. The grade Is nearly completed
SC6 miles westward from Lako Superior; trains arc
running over 130 miles of finished road, and track,
laying is progressing at tho rate of one to two miles
ptr day. Including its purchase of the SS, Paul and
Pacific Road, the Northern Paclflo Company now
has 413 miles of completed road, and by September
dent this will be Increased to at least 5C0.
A GOOD INVESTMENT.
We are now selling and unhesitatingly recom
mend, as a Profitable and perfectly Safe Investment,
the First Mortgage Land Grant Gold Bonds of tne
Northern Pacific Railroad Company. They have 30
years to run, bear Sevea and Three-tenths per cent,
gold Interest (more than 8 per cent, currency), and
are secured by first and only mortgage on the en
tire KOAD AUD ITS EQUIPMENTS, and alSO On
23,000 ACRES OF LAND
to every mile of track, or 500 Acres for each $10 f
Bond. They are exempt from United States Tax;
Principal and Interest are payable In Gold; Deno
minations : Coupons, fl00 to 1000; Registered, 100
to 110,000.
LANDS FOR BONDS.
Northern Pacific 7-30's are at all times receivable
at ten rER cent. ATiovK FAR, In exchango for tho
Company's Lands, at their lowest cash price. That
Is, in addition to their character as a first-class
prompt-paying Railroad security, these bonds are
in effect Land Tarrants bearing a profitable rate or
Interest until exchanged for Homesteads, at ten
I-EIl CENT. PKEM1CM.
SINK1NO FUND.
The Land Grant of the Road exceeds Fifty Mil
lion Acres, having an average soil of great fertility,
In a climate that la simply unsurpassed. The Trus
tees or the Mortgage, Messrs. Jay CooKe and J.
Edgar Thomson, are required to devote the pro
ceeds of all Land Sales to the repurchase and can
cellation of the Company's Bonds. This Immense
Sinking Fund will undoubtedly cancel tho principal
of the entire Issue of First Mortgage Bonds (now
selling) before they fall due.
PROFITABLE AND SAFE.
With their ample security and high rate of inte
rest, there is no Investment accessible to the peo
ple which Is more profitable or safe. In view of
the Government's expectation soon to call for the
surrender of its outstanding 6 per cent. Bonds,
under the present movement for funding the debt
at lower Interest, many holders of United States
Five-Twenties are exchanging them for Northern
Pacific Seven-Thirties, thus realizing a handsome
profit, and greatly increasing their annual Income.
OTHER SECURITIES AGENCIES.
All marketable Stocks and Bonds will be received
at their highest current price In exchange for
Nrthern Paclflo Seven-thirties. Express charges
on Money or Bonds received, and on Seven-thirties
sent in return, will be paid by the Financial Agents.
