Tragedy in iPILmWE!ind—A Murder and
Stilellde.
The Cambridge (Md.) Democrat and Herald of
Wednesday contains the following particulars of
a terrible tragedy :
On Monday evening last, about six o'clock,
Shadrach Bell, a farmer, living on one of Col.
James Wallace's farms, located about two miles
from Cambridge, met his death at the hands of
William E. Rook, a young man, lately married,
who was employed by him.
From all we can learn it appears that a diffi
culty occurred at the supper table between Bell
and Rook,' the wife of the latter running out of
the house through fear before any blows were
struck. One of the two men, during the melee,
procured an axe from the wood-pile, and this
weapon was fearfully used by Rook, the dying
*olds of Bell, if they are to be believed, show
ing that be was struck more than a dozen times
-with the murderous iron.
The contest resulted in the disabling of Bell,
who was afterwards found by the brother of Rook
aid Mr. G. W. Squires (whom the younger Rook
went for after the fight), lying by the side of a
fodder stack. He was in a dying condition; and
Insisted that Rook had struck him a dozen
times with the axe and dragged him there.
He was taken into the house, and. John-
Rook came, to Cambridge after a physi
cian. Dr. Chubb went out, but his services were
of no avail—the case was hopeless. Bell• died in
an hour or two.
Rook was arrested on Monday night and com
mitted to jail by Justice Winterbottom, who on
Tuesday morning . summoned a jury of inquest,
which; after hearing the testimony of the exam
ining physician and two other witnesses, was
journed until three o'clock in the afternoon, news
having reached the justice that Rook, the perpe
trator of the homicide, had ended the dreadful
affair by hanging himself in jail.

Ritualism in New Jersey.
In the Episcopal Convention of the Diocese of
New Jersey, held in Newark on Thursday, Mr.
Ccrtlandt Parker offered a series of Resolutiohs,
deprecating the . Ritualistic tendency of some
parts of the church, and deploring the introduc
tion of changes in rites and caremonies, such as
processions, transforming the communion table
into an altar, towing whenever the Saviour's
name is mentioned, Sz.c. The text of two of the
resolutions is as follows :
Resolved, That this Convention deplores the introduc
tion of said changes in the manner of worshipping God.
by whatever ancient practice in any other church the
same may have been recognized, and whatever their in.
trinsic merit, and expressing the hope that the same may
cease from among UN.
Readout, That among the practices to which allusion Is
made, this Convention will particularize the following:
Bowing at the name of Jesus at other times than when
occurring in the Creed ; turning especially to the east or to
the goniumnioretable then making ascription of praise to
Almighty God, or to 1 y person of the. holy Trinity •

Pions immediately before. after, or during divine worship ;
and generally all acts intentional postures and condutst in
the celebration of divine worship, which tend to make
the same resemble,ln outward seeming, that of the Church
of Rome.
• Mr. Parker earnestly advocated his resolutions,
referring to the innovations at St. Aiban's and
elsewhere, "as novel to our people and not con
templated by the Book of Common Prayer and
the Canons of the Church," and pleading for the
preservation of the evangelical standards of the
Church. The resolutions were seconded by Rev.
Mr. Clark, whereupon a motion was made to lay
them on the table. Finally the whole matter was
decided out of order.
The following persons were elected delegates
to the General Convention :
Clerical—Drs. Hodges, Stubbs and Abercrom
bie, and Rev. Mr. Rice.
Lay—J. M. Thompson, J. C. Garthwaite, R. S.

where he was reared. After attaining his fifteenth
year ho was apprenticed to a saddler, but disliking

Term. Kraut.Jolt,"filmy Stuart'?
For the first time since her reappearance capon
the platform hi , this country, Mrs. Kemble
last night forsook Shakspeare for a
lesser poet, and read Schiller's ' drama
of Mary Stuart. Even Schiller's genius
is robbed of its effulgence when it is contrasted
with the brilliancy of that of Shakspeares and
the entertainment last evening was less delight
ful than those previously given in the exact pro
portion of the relative merits of the two poets.
Any extended comparison of the qualities of the
two would be wholly unnecessary, and, indeed,
impossible here, but it is not inappropriate to say
that one reason why Schiller's drama is not as
suitable and as pleasing for the reader's desk as
any of Shalomeare's, is, that there is a sustained
gravity, and a want of variety in the several
episodes of the former which never occur in the
latter. 'Shales - pease invariably gives to the
figures in his plays a distinctive and life-like
personality, • which affords to the
interpreter opportunity to outline them more
clearly to an audience than is possible with the
conceptions of other dramatists. Even in his
severest tragedies he, also relieves the intensity of
the terrible episodes with passages of humor, or
else, as in Macbeth, with scenes in which a union
of the grotesque with the fearful affords the same
relief by giving diversion. Schiller, in his Mary
Stuart, sustains throughout the melandholy
solemnity which distinguishes the earlier scenes,
and while the climaxes are skilfully reached, and
are effective in the greatest degree, and while the
whole composition is filled with rare poetry, and
conceived with the spirit of a true and great
artist, it cannot be denied that it sometimes ap
proaches tediousness as nearly as beauty ever
can. The sombre color needs the contrast of a
few brilliant tints to heighten and develop its real
loveliness. s •
The occasion of this reading gained interest
from the fact that the translation was Mrs.
Kemble's own, and it seemed an excellent one.
The best in existence in print, without donbt, is
that of Mr. Joseph Mellish, who was an intimate
personal friend of Schiller,and was commissioned
by the poet to produce the tragedy upon the
English stage. He has translated it into graceful
and elegant blank versa, which is as nearly literal
as it can be. It would be impossible just now to
say that Mrs. Kemble's version is either inferior
or superior to this. Probably the difference is
not at all material. The text last night, in many
instances, closely resembled that of Mr. Mellish,
although an occasional passage was observable,
here and there, in which even the sense differed.
If there were any deficiencies in the text, how
ever, they were more than supplied by the voice
and manner of the speaker.
There was some curiosity felt to hear Mrs.
Kemble read this drama, because of late it has
had many interpreters. Ristori, Janauschek,
Mrs. Lander, and one or two lesser artists, have
produced it, and each has given a somewhat dif
ferent personation of the character of Mary.
Ristori is the only one of the three named who gs
worthy of comparison with Mrs. Kemble, and as
she used the Italian version. there can onlY be
comparison of the histrionic skill in giving each
conception shape. Here Risthri had the advan
tage that she personated but 'a single character,
and that with all the surroundings and appoint.
ments of the theatre, while it devolved upon:
Mrs. Kemble to assume each character success
ively, unaided by the illusions of scenery and
costume. Bat even allowing for this, we think
that great:as was the power exhibited by. the lat
ter, the palm mush be awarded to the great
Italian. Her conception was more subtle, and
her performance was beyond expreasion pathetic,
powerful and wonderfal. Mrs. Kemble, under
the same favorable conditions, Might have
touched her audience as deeply, bat she did not
so last night.
The passage in which the greatness of Mrs.
Kemble's genius was most apparent last evening
was that wherein occurs the interview between
Elizabeth and Mary in the park at Fotheringay.
First the wild exultation of the captive queen
over her liberty, and the sweet poetry, of her in
vocation to the flying clouds to carry her message
to her beloved France, were given with unsur
pugged eloquence and fervor, that lent additional
pathos to the wildness of her dismay when she
heard of Elizabeth's approach, and_presaged the
resulsof the coming interview. The scene be
tween the two queens was, in many particulars,
managed as Meter' managed it. If Mrs. Kemble
surpassed the Rollin at all, however, she did it
here. The straggle with obstinate -pride, the
forced humility of tone, and then the calm fierce
sarcasm that preceded the outburst of the torrent
of invective, were all given with vivid in
tensity. The manner in which the climax was
reached was worthy of Mrs. Kemble's great pow
crs,and the applause that greeted her was the evi
dence that the audience felt it to be the crowning
triumph of the evening.
Upon the whole, however, we are sure that
Mrs. Kemble need not be afraid of wearying the
people with Shakespeare. Most persons would
prefer that she, as the greatest living interpreter
of the English poet, should present him only to
them. Any one would go twice to hear her read
Hamlet or the Merry IVires of Windsor; but few
would care to hear a second reading of Mary
Stuart. The fault is not with the reader; it is
the difference between a greater and lesser poet,
—between a grand original and a man who,
noble as he was, in some sense at least was an
imitator:

GEOGRAPHICAL SURVEY.
Very fair and fall of promise
Lay the island of St. Thomas;
Ocean o'er its reefs and bars
Bid its elemental scars;
Groves of cocoanut and guava
Grew 'above its fields of lava.
So the gem of the Antilles— -
"Isles of Eden," where no ill la—
Like a great ;creel' turtle slumbered
On the sea that it encumbered.
Then said William Henry Seward
As he cast his eye to leeward ,
"Quite important to our commerce
Is this island of St. Thomas."
Said the Mountain ranges,"Thank'se,
But we cannot stand the Yankee _
O'er our scars and fissures poring,
In our very vitals boring,
In our sacred caverns prying,
All our secret problems trying—
Digging, blasting, with dynamit
Mocking all our thunders! D— It!
Other lands may be more civil,
Bust our lava crust if we will!"
Said the sea—lts white teeth gnashing
O'er its coral-reef lips flashing:
'Shall I let this scheming mortal . '
Shut with stone my shining portal,
'Curb my tide, and check my play,
Fence with wharves my shining bay?
Rather let me be drawn out
In one awful water-spout!"
Said the black-browed Hurricane
Brooding o'er the Spanish main:
"Shall I see my forces, zounds!
Measured by square inch and pounds,
With detectives at my back
When I double on my track,
And my secret paths made clear,
Published a'er the hemisphere
To each gaping, prying crew?
Shall I? Blow me if I do!'
So the mountains shook and thundered,
And the hurricane came aweeping,
And the people looked andivondered
As the sea came on them leaping;
Each, according to-his promise,
Made things lively at St. Thomas.
Till one morning, when Bill Seward
Cast his weather eye to leeward,
There was not an inch of dry land
Left to mark his recent island.
Not a flagstaff or a sentry,
Not a wharf or, port of entry—
Only—to cut matters shorter—
Just a patch of muddy water,
In the open ocean lying,
And a gull above it flying.
