LITERABY TOPICS.
LITERATURE AND IBB STAGE.
Why rlaya that are Weak Catch the feputar
Fancy, and TtieM FefMMlne heat
Dramatic Merit rail.
Chicago Inter Ocean.
The relation of literature te the stage is
being discussed somewhat in England and
te a less extent, in this country. The
wonder expressed is that there is no close
alliance of the two in either country. The
condition new existing is thought te be
the sti anger for the reason that ether
learned countries, notaeiy r ranee, uer
manvand Spain, yet maintain a high
order of dramatic literature, the men of
letters in these countries having principal
control of the stage as in the days of Mo Me
liere, Corneille, Goethe, Schiller and Cal Cal
deren. It is claimed that the writers for the
theatre are net, in the Eeglish speaking
countries, the men who exert the greatest
influence en literature, and that in con
sequence no plays of a high order of liter
ary merit are produced in either country.
The observation is net made without some
foundation. It is very trne that diamas
are new fashioned mere for temporary
benefit than permanent value, te please
passing fancy rather than te afford con
tinual delight te intelligent appreciation
of real excellence. It is also true that the
best material of our writers gets into the
reading instead of the spoken form ; that
books are made the vehicle for the
thoughts that formerly fenud expression
in play.
But it is a question whether the reason
for this is te be found in the preference of
the author. It is possible the men of the
highest literary ability feel themselves
forcibly excluded from a tiefd they would
very much like te enter and control.
Indeed, there is evidonce that they are
net without aspirations in that direction.
Tha fault tcems lather te be with the
people for whom they write, the varied
public. The demand is fei diversion, net
instruction ; amusement, net improvement.
Comparatively a small portion of a the
atre'H patronage find pleasure in the
polished language, the cleverly turned
phrases or the poetic beauties of the
author. The majority waut action, heroics,
vehemence, passion, the qualities that
appeal te the emotions, uet. these that
impiess the intellectual faculties. Even
Shakespeare is net an attraction in himself
nowadays. Something mere than the
verbal glories of the diviue text is neces
sary te attract profitable patrouage.
The public does net care as much for
the scholar who can give the bast reading,
of the text as it does for the actor who can
infuse the greatest spirit if) te his work. It
is net the student who can most intelli
gently interpret the soliloquies of Hamlet
who gains most favor, but the player who
can give the most intonse realism te the
ghost and passion scenes. In short,
people k te the theatre te fee!k net te
think.
Were it otherwise, Alfietl Tennyson
would uet have seen his tragedy scorned
from the English stage while the vapid
melodramas of Pettitt and Reade were
being represented before crowds. True,
the Shakespearean revivals by Henry
Irving have been magnificently successful ;
but Irviug is an Euglish deity. Thore is
no objection commoner with managers
who read plays for approval than this :
" It is tee high for them, it will sheet
ever their heads." This, interpreted,
means that inanageis are afraid topreduco
thoughtful plays, plays directed toward
the mind of the public.
We have uet been without our iliustra
tiens that plays which are literary preduc
tiens an; generally financial failures, as
put forward in these times. W. D.
Hewell's wrote Yericlc's Leve, a beautiful
composition ; but his experience has net
taught him that it is worth his while te
cultivate the stage. Pendragen, by
William Yeung, is a work of very high
eider of merit, but the public did net in
dorse it. Tlie Beuse of Mauprat, by the
same talented author, was of great liter
ary worth, but it failed. The thiee plays
named had dramatic strength, though
they were without realism or eccentricity.
There is nothing in li te ratine, geed, bad
or indifferent, mere profitable than a suc
cessful play ; aud if our best writers
gained the encouragement of recognition
en the stage thay would naturally prefer
play making te book making as the readier
way te fertuue. Every one interested
declares that the drama The Thunderbolt,
written by the poet laureate of Canada,
was an admirable piece of literature, vet
it was a dire failure, and was at emcj
withdrawn.
It is such rebuffs as this, in the face of
the popularity of plays that are very low.
in the literary grade, but seems te con
firm the doubt that stage litcrature of
high order is desirable with the public It
is net the fault of the theatre, nor the
manager of the theatre. The fault is
popular. It U fact that new literary plays
generally fail. The greater number of
successes are from among plays written te
define certain maunerisins or meet specific
demands, net from among the number
composed for the purpose of developing
dramatic art and promoting letters. The
question of nativity has very little te de
w ith the drama.
PHRASE MAKING.
Ttie Art et Putting Tilings Eplgraminatlc
ally and of Giving them tbe Currency.
Londen GloLe.
In the wider sense of the term, phrase
making is net " historic" at all. Te gam
marians, for example, it is simply the art
of forming intelligible combinations of
sentences. They offer elaborate rules for
the strengthening of the phrase, xeu aie
taught te " err" en the side of brevity, te
use adjectives sparingly, net te employ
superlatives at all. And by dint of care
ful "rounding off," with tbe aid of an
indefinable sense of harmony and propor
tion which always shape the better essays
in composition, rough hew them hew we
will, the phrase may be turned out in a
fairly presentable condition. This, at any
rate, will be tbe grammarian's view of the
matter. But the rounding off process
often leads te inaccuracies and exaggera
tions that are apt te escape tbe eye of the
pedagogue intent 011 mero grammatical
perfection. -
A critic who insisted en absolute truth
fulness of statement would find a sad
amount of dry ret in the phraseolegical
structure of language. His first impulse,
no doubt, would be te set at liberty the
emnicient school boy, new kept a prisoner
in the various educational establishments
under the pretext of tuition ; yet second
thoughts might lead him te refrain from
troubling the world with any unnecessary
proof of its own unfathomable ignorance.
Hirdly less interesting as a piece of
phrasemaking machinery than the omnis emnis omnis
e'ent school boy is the " acknowledged
fact," never se loudly asserted as when
called into question, and elten net a fact
at all. One hears of much which " it is
idle tr deny," but which, nevertheless,
many show themselves very industrious in
denying. There are people who are never
at ease save when telling things that " go
without saying," just as there are Lon
doners te whom everything is as "clear,
as day," even during the foggy season.
These Englishmen whose conclusions en
most subjects are undisputed by "the
shadow of a shade of doubt," have made
en important discovery in optics and
ought te be held te a full and circumstan
tial avowal, under penalty in default of
exhioitien as results of the new system;
science teaching. It is " pure madneai
te venture upon certain enterprises, yet
upon these very enterprises men venture
who are net in any degrea mad. And when
one thinks of the number of people who
annually escape from Bedlam te play vari
ous pranks in politics, science and art, one
hardly knows at which te wonder the
mere, at the enormous resources of that
establishment, or at the infinite pains
taken te placa a constant supply of its
worst cases at the disposal of the country.
''Experience," of course, "teaches" many
things that are absolutely true, yet it may
be well net te forget that it was experi
ence which taught the king of Bantam
that water could net beceme solid. It
was " common sense " moreover, which
proved te the satisfaction of the men of
antiquity that there could be no anti
podes, for hew could people stand with
their heads downward, like flies from a
ceiling ?
EVENTS IN EUROPE.
Occurrences that Have Connection With
America.
Sir Charles Dilke, president of the
local government beard, replying, in the
Heuse of Commens, te Sir Stafferd North,
cote, said that in the last fortnight there
had been thrce suspicious cases of sickness
in England, which were declared te be
cholera, but it had been ascertained that
they were what is known as simple cholera.
There is no Asiatic cholera, he said, in
England or in Europe. The deaths from
simple cholera in England this year, he
stated, had net reached the ordinary aver aver
age ; Inst week the number was only half
of the usual average. Mr. Cress, under
secretary for India, stated that 1,101
deaths from cholera occurred in the Bom
bay presidency during the first week of
June. At Liverpool Mr. Packard, the
Ameriein consul, bes appointed a doctor
te irspnet passsngers and cargoes of ves
sels bound te the United States. Mr.
Packard has sent te Washington a de
tailed dispatch concerning tbe shipment
te Bosten of rags received from Egypt.
Professer Putlitss (net Zuputhtz, as
heretofore given), who killed himself in
Berlin after drawing a death let in a sc
called American duel, refused te fight the
duel in the ordinary way becanse his an
tagonist was short-sighted His death
attracts serious attention te the dueling
mania.
A dispatch te the Londen Daily Tele
graph from Berne says : A conversation
between Switzerland aud the United
States, according te which any differences
between the two republics are te be set
tled by arbitration, is about te be submit
ted te the Swiss federal assembly. The
convention has bsen accepted by the
United States.
At Constantinople, Qen. Wallace, the
Americau minister, has scut a fresh note
te the porte demanding a prolongation of
the treaty of commerce between Turkey
and tbe United States, but agreeing te a
revision of the tariff.
Governmental Matters.
Yesterday's ballet for U. S. senator in
tbe New Hani p.shire Legislature resulted
fellows : Messrs. Ladd, Stevens, Benten,
Lyman, Prcscett and Patterson, 1 each ;
Gallagher, 2 ; Tappan, 10 ; Burns, 27 ;
Marsten, 31 ; Chandler, 3C ; Pike, C5 ;
and Bingham, 89. Necessary te a choice,
134. It was rumored that befere leaving
Concord yesterday afternoon for their
homes tbe Republican leaders, except
Marsten, " arranged te transfer their
strength te Pike and elect him en Tues
day." It is understood that " friends of
Rollins will boom It a Celby, of Clarement
next week."
It was reported in Monterey, en Thurs
day night, that the Spanish minister te
Mexico has been lecalled, and that a
serious rtipture between the two countries
was possible. War is net anticipated, but
serious commercial trouble. The disa
greement is supposed te have been caused
by Mexico's repudiation of her Spanish
debts.
Captain S.irauel Perrinp, of life saving
station Ne 19, en tbe New Jersey coast,
lias resigned. It is said his resignation is
because of the new rule compelling tbe
keepiug a daily leg book during the sum
mer. The Massachusetts Legislature yester
terday adjourned sine die, after a session
of 20U days, the longest record of that
body. The only bill passed ever the
governor's veto was one te increase by
$500 the salaries of the legislative
clerks.
Allen Campbell, controller of New Yerk
city, yesterday scut bis resignation te
Mayer Edsen, te take effect en August
1st. Failing health is assigned as the
cause.
Up a Tree fur Twe Hours.
Cambria (Pa.) Herald.
Seme five miles west of this place in
the wilderness commonly known as the
" Devils Track," resides Mr. Hugh Rees
aud his family. About two miles from
their habitation is the " Old Springfield "
meadow, entirely hedged in by laurel and
large hemlock. In this wild r.nd lonely
spot Mr. Rees pastures his horses. Oue
morning recently, while his litt'e seu was
wending his way leisurely along the path
through the dense weeds te the " Old
Springfield" for bis father's horses, he
noticed what he supposed te be a deg run
ning along near the path. He whistled
and then threw a stone after it. The ani
mal quickly turned and approached the
boy who ran and climbed up a small
cherry tree. The wolf, for it was nothing
else, commenced gnawing the bark of the
tree and howling, aud in less than ten
minutes four ether wolves made their ap
pearance, and for two hours they made
the weeds ring with their wild, angry
howling. They then bounded ever
tbe rocks and disappeared in the laurel,
and that boy made double quick time for
home. There is scarcely a year passes
that these vicious animals de net kill a
number of sheep and calves for farmers
living in that section.
A Clever Weman.
Chambers' Journal.
A Parisian journal some time ae re
corded an exceedingly clever bit of match
making executed by an American lady in
brilliant style. Her eldest daughter had
sailed from New Yerk with some friends
for a tour of Europe, and after " doing "
the continent had returned te the French
capital for rest and pleasuring. Attractive
and clever, she had many suitors, some
mere, some less desirable. She could net
marry them all, se she adroitly reduced
the number te two the best of the let of
course. Then she wrote home te her
mamma, explaining the exact condition of
affairs, adding that tbey were both se
handsome, agreeable, well connected and
rich that she could net decide between
them, and closed with the questien:
" What shall I de ?" Ten days later she
received a cable dispatch from mamma :
" I will sail te-morrow ; held both until I
come." The next transatlantic steamer
brought Mrs. Blank and her second daugh
ter, just turned 18 and fresh from school.
On her arrival the old lady at once took
the helm of affairs and steered se deftly
through the troubled waters that in a few
days she reached pert with all colors flying.
Te drop metaphor she attended the wed
dine of her two daughters at the American
chapel.en the same morning. After due
examination she had decided that neither
of the nice fellows should go out of the
family;
Here is an illustration of a much less
skilful attempt at match making with a
very ainerenc denouncement : a. certain
member of Parliament, who owned exten
sive stables, was spending a few days at
the residence of a noble family. There
were several interesting and accomplished
young ladies in tbe family, te whom the
honorable member showed every attention.
Just as he was about te leave the noble
man's wife proceeded te consult him upon
a matter which, she declared, was causing
her no little distress. "It is reported,"
said the countess, " that you are te marry
my daughter Lucy, and what shall we de?
What shall we say about it?" "Oh,"
replied the censiderated M. P., with much
adroitness, "just say she refused."
Seir-Discipline at Amhurst.
Philadelphia Ledger.
Amhurst college is te try the experi
ment of self-government for the pupils.
Questions of discipline instead of being
referred te the faculty are te go before a
college senate composed of four seniors,
three juniors, two sophomores aud one
freshman, each class electing its own rep
resentatives. The president of the col
lege is te preside at meetings of the son
ate, and te have the power te veto its
decisions. This plan of government is
well worth a trial. It should serve as
a useful branch of education te the young
men, and help te make the least tractable
students under rigid rule, mere self
respectful. The best governed classes in
colleges are theso whose teachers treat
the students as gentlemen, and demand
similar treatment in return.
Laber Notes.
Vice President Lee, of the amalgamated
association, arrived at Bethlehem, Pa.,
yesterday, and a secret meeting of the
union was held in the afternoon. The
manager of the Bethlehem iron campany
said that, as far as the company is con
cerned, the trouble is at an end ; that
mere men were returning than could be
given employment at present. A ma
jority of the union men are still holding
out.
The dress and cloak makers strike in
