NEW I’IIIUICATIOSS. ■'( Hurd.& york,h a y c puWi^V. a new dramatic poem by J- C; Hoy wood, called., “Salome.” Although In lleOlf “Salomo” is acontatmtoddJdwfcg", wood’s '“Heredias" and “Anionites" to throe poems forming a connected hiatorj?sf ttjedaugh to of Heredias. The author bite taken high ground as a dramatic poet, to has rapidly woh amputation as a classical Which-IS sustained In his new poem. The plot of »» lome” is cast at the siege of* Jerusalem, a slight anachronism, by the way, in regard to, SiUotn^ herself, who\ntist hare been well advanced in years in 70 A. D., when she Is an attractive maiden. Thh scenes ■•••«*“■*■£• without lie -walls of the doomed city, tne sufferings Ofthe besieged Jews, andl tHeir POtee cutions of to little band of •women who lie concealed In secret the dissensions among the fotiowcrs and Simon, the machinations of Kaliphllns, the Wandering Jew, the Inter and Josephus, the portents preceding the fall of the city and Its final capture by victorious Homans, led by the desperate .Matah, a Jerri* woman who has slain her own child to escape starvation, are all worked in by. Mr. Hcy.wood with a mnstcrfnl hand. There arp, here apd there, weak points, as when Kallphilns describes his passing from one continent to another, on the bottom of the ocean, which is a hyper-extrava gance, even for to Whndering Jew, but such dm lects are few and faT between. Inmanyplaces the poem rises to real grandeur. The scene in whichJpMjph'Bs; standing at night nppn an over- hears'Yengoance calling upon Discoid* ..Wur* Famine, Pestilence, Conflagration «T,fl f>p«nlatlnn. tmcb. to empty their vials upon the fated city, Is very fine. The inlervl&w be tw&tfßaloifaerattd her Roman lover, Soxtns. n prisoner within the* city, is very beantlfnU The dramatic effect of '.the poem •gains , great force from to introduction of the various classical choinsses',' by the priests, to Roman soldiers, and to lQbrlstlsns. . This Is admlrably dono in many parts of to poem, one of the most Striking examples belngin the death-scene of Bernice. Without' quoting : any of to numerous passages' which ' are ' especially worthy of noio, we congratulate tho author upon this ‘fresh evidence of Iris talent as a dramatic writer. The three- consecutive poems which he has produced are ail h ighly indicative of culture, taste to poetic talent, to as Mr. Heywood is yet a young man,there Is much .to be hoped for in to future from his pen, which has already done eo well. “Salome” is fof sale by J. B. Llpplncott CO* ■ : ■ ' J By a Bingular coincidence, Lessing’s great dra matic poem of ‘‘Nathan the Wise" has been pub lished by Leypoldt & Holt, New" York, contem poraneously with ‘‘Salome,’” both poems deriv ing their inspiration from scenes within the walls of' Jerusalem. “Nathan the 'Wise’’ is one of the finest productions of the German author,. Gotthold Lessing, who has often been styled the Luther of German literature,; drama and art. •'iVathan der Weisc" was written in 3799. Its principal character, Saladin, a captive Templar, and the Jew Nathan are used to inculcate those coromon!? lessons of tolerance,; charity and morality which the author held to be the tests of all true religion. Lessing is so little known in this country, that Leypoldt & Holt have done a real service in publishing this admirable transla tion. Ills prefaced by a very interesting bio graphical Bketch of the author, and supplemented by a well-digested criticism upon the prominent characters of the poem. It is for sale by J.

Vesuvius excites no less interest than would the health of a royal patient Bulle tins are issued daily, by Prof. Palmieri, by the Polite, and others; and these are re ported eagerly by‘the journals. I propose, therefore, to give you a general statement of ■what’ the, mountain has been about since my last continuous report, which was published in the Times of January 2. About the end of last month a number of rivulets were flowing ovtt of the cone, whiCh/interlining the snow, presented a most lemt^hhble appearance. At the same time, deiiie hiasses of white sntoke ascended from the shialler cone, giving notice of the activity ♦tiftfc .prevailed below the surface. Signor Siivestri,.already known to ' soience by nu nhßprvatians on fEtna, had taken np his residence in the Observatory, and, together with' Palmieri, recorded the various move meuts bf the scientific instruments, and the everchanging phases of the eruption. As has the case, eveiy fresh discharge of lava .was marked by, deep hollow sounds in the crater, and by disturbances in the appa ratus of the Observatory. Dp to this time the streams have been flowing over* ground broken up by former eruptions, thus finding frequent interruptions to their course, sometimes being compelled , to, deviate and make a circuit, at others pass ing and rising until: they surmounted the black, rugged mass before them. The direc tion takenhy the great proportion of the lava *t that timn waa Ottaiano. where it had ar rived at the point caued the Cognoli di Otta jano. on the bed, ih fact, which was formed in 1886. now’evat'i it was said, to Re sina and Terre del Greco if the 1 lava flo wed in the direction of those cities. sAs if the apprehensions of tbe,prophets had invited. it to do.BO, about the 4tti and Cth of the month it ' assumed yet vaster proportions. More- like a torrent than a stream of fire it burst out from the principal' cone, overwhelmed the smaller one, and rushed down over the western side of the mountain on the beds of lava formed by the crayons of 1856, 1859, 1860. Just above the Piano delle Giuestre it divlded into two branches, one running toward the north, in thedirebtion of Resina,pasBing within,a quar ter mean hour's walk from the, observatory; ibq ; southward, in the direction of the Tdrie del Greco. According to certain pro dictipn% s»erefore, those cities were in '-great dai&pq but : sufficient account had not been takepiof'the periodicity of the course of the law jfWdrit! been continuous the danger would have been great, but there are always short’intervals of repose, and cessation';": the motmtjfe fitbP B how and then to recover its» . during these intervals the lava.hardens on the surface and. a “new stream , has to begin its lahore. Underneath this blackened surface, however, there is a burning, red-hot mass, and woe to, the rash pedestrian who atiefopM ; to cross it., In; this state the mountain continued for a ..... tbe-most .bruliant.spectaclc it hM.yet exhibited.

For .the lagt three or four days, though the in struments in the Observatory have been as active as ever*the lava has advanced with less rapidity, not more than 800 or 400 metres a day in the direction of Torre del Greco, which? may now be considered safe, as it would take a month at the same rate to ad vance as far as the town. The measurement of the depth onthe.Bifiiio, delle Giuestre, which .was taken on the night, oi the ,1 2 th, was eight metres.' According to last nights report, the quantity of lava ejected was much diminished, and the Seismometer was less active, but these facts are not to be regarded as indications Of the approaching cessation of the eruption. On the contrary, such intervals Of repdse we have had continually, ana-the probabilities are that a more violent -outburst will follow. Of.late, the road to the’ Obser vatoty has been deserted by visitors, who take'-that rather which lies between Itesina and the Favorite. Thousands go tip every night—it is the great, .noc turnal promenade —and many, misled by the apparent proximity of the stream, go up on foot, but it is a (tugged land wearisome road, over huge masses of lava, and many are the tumbles and tattered:’ dresses, which are the consequence. Perhaps 1 at the present moment the best pioint of observation is the Church of Pogliknb, which may be reached -without difficulty and without much fatigue. Who, however, thinks of either m the face of this most glorious spectacle? On one night this week* , together with .the crowds. from the foot of the mountain, came up a band of music which played waltzes and polkas, and tarantellas arid,'selections from the “Ballo in Maschera.” ' But is not a scene so solemn to be hest enjoyed in, solitude and silence? It is a beautiful, a grand, or h sol emn scene, aocording to the turn of one s mind, and thousands have contemplated it in each one of its phases. . . CRETAN EMIGBATIOS. Translation of a Report Addressed to tine Italian Envoy at Atbens bytbe Italian constU. at Nyra. In reply to the letter, dated the sthinst., which I had the Honor of receiving from your Excellency, I make it my duty to give you some information which I obtained-from re liable sources on the subject of Cretan emi- to state, even approximately, the number of Cretan families that are here because they are scattered, a few at almost every point They may,however,be estimated as at least two thousand women, children and oldmen. Of this number quite a goodly portion "arc men capable of bearing arms, but who prefer the quiet of a residence at Syra to association with the insurgents.. The Her mopolis Commune spends . eight thou sand drachma every lortnight to assist, the emigrants; but this amount is quite insufficient, for when divided among s» many persons it amounts merely to from ten to thirty lepta a day for each one. The bulk of the emigrants are poor, and those who have arrived at Syra have been forced to sell whatever articles of value they possessed, or the jewelry of their women, to raise wherewithal to live. A great number of the emigrants are sorry that they left their native soil, and seek continu ally the means of returning, but the.local authorities in an underhand way,, and the committee by all means at their command, succeed in preventing them. At every departure of the Austrian mail for Crete the committee have then cruising about the landing for the purpose of preventing, by any means, the departure of, Cretans; and such as fail to get away when once ashore again are denounced -by the populace as -traitors. Those who succeed in sailing for tbeir native shores are forced to have their effects stowed away as merchandise, destined for some port of call on the island:. In. this way they have suc ceeded in evading the vigilance of the com mittee’s agents. I am certain that several Cretans in eas/ circumstances have addressed the acting Ottoman Consul-General asking to be amnestied and allowed to return;home,"and that the assistance sought, was granted. This Consulate issues from fifteen to eighteen pass ports per week at government expense. The, emigrants do not make their complaints openly; but when they find a person whom they can trust they curse those who dragged them into their present sad situation, and their only aspiration is to see the island-speedily returned to obedience, bo that they can re gain their homes.’ , There is no doubt that the insurrection holds out on account of the support given by different committees resident here, at Athens and abroad,'as well as by the Greek govern ment. Whoever first conpeiyed the idea of transporting those families to "Greece cal culated well the profit that would, .result in the way of keeping up the insurrection through the Cretans themselvea < The un fortunate father or husband who has sent his family to Greece, must of necessity join the combatants through fear that ( those who, are so dear to him ana are cast ambng foreignefs ; may suffer from-vengefulness. they quit this islapd, as they know not iwhat fate awaits them in Greece, where they would be received as traitors; The policy of : intimidation is tM only lever that makes them fight; and, notwithstanding the desire of the insurgents to compromise matters with the government, they cannot do so while their families remain m Greece. These refiectionslhavaheardftomCretana when speaking of their situation and that of the insurgents. The protfadtion of the strug gle will only augment the misery of the emi grants, for aid becomes more and’ more re* : stricted, and when it shall cease entirely the consequence will be sickness' which al ways follows privation. In setting forth what prer cedeß for your Excellency’s information I shall be pleased should you pardon the loose style of my report, as my objeefrhae been to comply with the wish expressed ,by your Excellency, feeling confident that I should meet your approbation. 1 ■, : Shalrespoare in Germany* An interesting contribution to Shake spearian literature has just, been published at Vienna, under tlie,-title pf“Bh»kespeare's .

[Fromllepworth Dixon’s New Book, "Spiritual Wives."] / THEORY OF BFIRITBAI. WIVES. The higher theory of Spiritual wives may be stated in a few words. , The common no tion of a legal union between a man and wo man iB an- act of pairing for life. At the altar we promise to take each other for good and ill, for better arid worse, engaging before the world to dwell together, cleaving brie to the other, and to none else, until death shall part us. What do we mean by these large words? That we take each other for life, and life only? That the bargain made in time is . only good for time? That the affections and the ties which bind them cease with 1 the grave? In short, do we mean that marriage is a tempo rary bond which has no part in our eternal life ? This is the usual teaching of the schools; and in all those countries where the Church still reigns and rules, this view of the mar riage yow is never impeached by adverse de cisions in a court of law. The vow is for life, arid for the whole of life. It lasts until the grave,it ends with the grave. The Latin max im is, “once married,always married. What God has hound let no man put asunder,” says the Western Church. The husband shall be to his wife,' the wife shall be to her husband only, until death shall break the seal and tear the record. So far runs the contract, arid no farther. Death only makes men free. Now, this theory of a marriage vow being good for life, tod only for life, is more than simply un satisfactory to men and women of a certain typeof mind, it is absolutely repulsive. Hus bands who care nothing for their wives, wives who care little for their husbands, may learn to bear it. When there is no rich estate of love, I no subtle yearning, no blended life be tween the two sexes, they can look- forward to the grave as to an end of their wedded bends, if not with ardor, yet still without agony of soul. But then, as the mystics say, in such a case, there has been no true mar riage, either first or last. Such unions, they allege, are only partnerships in business and estate. Two properties, perhaps, have been made one; two family lines may have ran into one stream; a dull and legal act having been solemnized with religious forms, - and beautified by orange blossoms and bridal benedictions. Suchan affair of trade, it is alleged, may end most fitly with the hearse and shroud. But when a marriage pf true hearts has been blessed throughout by love, as well as by the -priest;. when. two young souls have grown one in feeling, in desire, in aspirations; then the thought of. husband _or wife ever ceasing to hold that dear relation to the other is hardly to.be borne. The spirit kicks against that doctrine of a life apart, even when the promise is that it shall be passed in a brighter and better world. Love, wanting no brighter world, refuses to admit the thought of a separated life. To true mates mairiage is cot for the tinie now only, but Tor the time to come. ; Carnal ideas have no do minion in the sphere of love. Once bound to each other, true mates desire to be always bound. Loveseeks no change; and why, if lo ve is etemal, should the union which makes it visible end with the greater sleep? Men, it is alleged, who have found their mates on earth can never fall back into such a view. To their eyes wedlock is a covenant of soul with soul, made for all worlds in which there is conscious life; for the heavens above no jess than to the earth below. Huron Haussuiann’s Success. An Englishman writes from Paris to the London Examiner: “It is becoming more find more difficult to find one’s way about here. Not only have innumerable new streets been opened to cir culation, but the names of one hundred and forty-four old streets have been changed by : Imperial decree. Even cabmen lose their heads under such bewilderment as this, and the trouble consequent.on it is very real. A quarter of a century must pass before the new names will be finally adopted.. Even how Old people talk of the. Place Louis XV. and the Rue de Mont Blanc, forgetting that the Place de la Concorde and the Chaussea d’Antin 1 legally lost their former appella tions some forty years ago. The new names,.. adopted how are almost exclusively those of famous Frenchmen; but it may be doubted 1 whether the public will learn history from them any more than it learnt virtue m 1790:' (from the attempt then made to accustom ci tizens to the practiceof moral qualities, giving to the main streets of .Paris the names Horn esty, Magnanimity, Truth and Self-Sacrifice..

The House fhen, Of 1:30,' proceeded, as thebhslncss of the morning hour, to the consideration of the bill reported from the Committee on Foreign Affaire, conccrplng the rlghte of American citizens in foreign States, Mr. Judd, of Illinois, continued his speech In criti cism of the bill, and, read r some extracts from a letter rewdysabyhjm this morning, from a German ,1a the wept,, asking why the bill made any distinction be tween native and adopted citizens. The exception made la the bill Of persons escaping from a conscrip tion detnally ordered wonld, he said, Snbject to arrest , and conscription all Germans returning to their coun try who bad emigrated when over twenty-three years of age. The proposed redress in the second section, that pf .reprisals, Mr. Judd considered aathe most re markable provision of tblß . very singular bill. As a means Of redressing a wrong the proposition was a farce, as a mode of pnnisbmcnt It was barbarism, and -it waa at-variance wlfh all the principles recognized by modem civilized governments. He believed that Congress should pass a general declaration of what the law of the country Is as,to, theperfoct equality of na tive born and nstorali2ed citizens—eligibUUy to the Presidency being the only exception—and of what the government proposes to do in case of refusal to abide by such declaration.

He recognized the first column as containing something which, his colleague had eaid after being dreasequp, but the rest of it he did not recognize at alb Mr.MansiUix expressed his amazement atthe course takeuby his colleague, who was a man of gen' is, and of classic education, and it was perhaps nop , weary lor him, as It was for most members, to' ■ i and correct the notes written obt by repo' ue de clared that the speech as published. ip' >bt was the speech as delivered hy* him In the Me, with some additions and amplifications, he admitted, but there was,not a sentiment in the speech is reported that had ootbpen ottered by him in the House, and if any gentleman asserted the contrary he asserted what wps not true. He admitted additions and amplifica tions In carrying out expressed ideas, and he under stood that to be the universal eastern of members. Mr. Loo Art refei red to the insinuation which he said Ida colleague ~ h4d made with such bitterness, as to bis (Mr. Logan) "being illiterate.
