JATEKVITG. tbe elder booth. A Sketch of Bis “Macbeth.” The subjoined paragraph will be interesting, to theatrical readers at tbe present time, when Mr. Booth’s Macbeth is a centre of thoughtful attention. It relates to the elder Booth’s per formance of Macbeth, and is copied from The Theatrical Register (No. 14, page 258), pub lished in New York, Dec. 25, ,1824 : “Mr. Booth, alter a successful engagement at Philadelphia; on Monday played Macbeth, for his benefit, which was his first appearance in that character in our country. The eminent ability with which he sustained that arduous character adds fresh lustre to his reputation as a tragedian. He gave new horrors to the dag ger scene; and, in the interview with. Lady Macbe'h, after having ‘ done the deed,’ when the ! regicide is urged to return and leave tbe bloody daggers, tile audience were completely electrified by the manner in which he delivered these words: “ ‘ I’ll go no more. I am afraid to think what I have done; Look on’t again 1 dare not. « Never,” says an eye-witness, “ did I behold such a picture of agonized contrition.” “It is thought by the million that none but an actor of the grenadier grade will do for a proper representative of Macbeth, and much is said of the towering dignity of that ambitious chieftain. Where the truth of this conclusion lies I cannot perceive. No allusion is made to Macbeth’s gigantic dimensions, nor does he perform anything herculean before the audi ence ; he is merely spoken of as valiant and ambitious, which is often the case wjth little men. He is endued with some power of con science, hut not enough to stand against golden temptations. He dwells mostly in the world of imagination, and deals in enchantment. All this may happen with a man less than six feet high. He is very much governed by bis wife, and this certainly is sometimes the case with a little man. I believe'the little man Gar rick acted Macbeth far better tban any strapping tragedian in the world, and I would not be surprised to find that tbe little man Booth per forms it better tban any of the gigantic actors in our country.” A TEBBIBI.I TRAGEDY. *jbe Double Murder In Henry County. 11- llnolß--A Farmer and Mis Wife Mur dered in Their Bed. [From tho Chicago Tribune.V Cambridge, 111., April 7.—One of the most brutal murders that has ever been committed in this county, was perpetrated near Colooa, HI., on the sth inst. A. K. Mumford, a farmer living about three miles west of Colona,had just sold his farm, intending to move West. Two ruffians, attracted doubtless by the money supposed to be in the house, effected an en trance while the family were asleep. A little boy was lying awake in a trundle-bed, and saw one of them attempt to reach under the pillow of Mr. Mumford, and gave the alarm, which awoke Mrs. Mumford, and she screamed, awakening her husband, who sprang up. Both were immediately knocked down with a club. Mr. Mumford’s head was com pletely severed from bis body with, a knife. The little boy was then knocked down and left for dead. The ruffians then left, after securing over $1,600 in money and some notes. In the morning, when the deed was dis covered, the spectacle presented was an awful one. Mr. and Mrs. Mumford and the boy ail lay npon the floor weltering in their blood. The boy was found to he aiive, and was re stored so as to relate the dreadful occurrence of the night, but the parents were both dead. Two strangers, pretending to be cattle-buyers, who had been hanging about the neighborhood for several days, are supposed to he the mur derers. One has a light complexion, blue eyes, light hair, large features; weight about 175 pounds; dressed in dark coat, and bad on a black felt hat and leather shoes. The other was tali and slim, witli dark eyes, black hair, pale complexion and nervous temperament; wore a blue soldier’s coat and thick boots. In tense excitement prevails in the neighborhood, andlf caught there the ruffians would undoubt edly he lynched. They traced one of the ruf fians some two miles over fields by blood from the wounds whicli he had received in the tus sle with Mr. Mumford. Every effort is bein<* made to arrest the murderers. ° , ■California Pearl Fisheries. The pearl fishery on the eastern coast of Lower California is prosecuted with profit, and probably might be developed considerably by the application of capital and intelligence. It is now in the hands of sixteen armudores , who employ 5'20 Indian divers. The principal sta tions are La Paz, Loreto, and Muleje. The gross receipts of the last season, extending from May to October, were valued at $77,000, one-third in shells and two-thirds in pearls. Yankee ingenuity could, perhaps, devise some cheaper and earner method of getting the pearls than that now in use; and it might pay some of our inventors to take a trip to Loreto .next summer. The pearl diver boat made at Boston and tried at Panama was well , devised, and if properly managed would probably have proved a success.—Alta California.

NEW l'lIW-It'AHONS. Edward Wortley Montagu. An Autobiogra pliy. Philadelphia. Turner & Cd. IS7O. The eccentric rad® of the Montagus gave ; ample food to’tlie Soeerwells of contemporary society, while its luck has been to suffer long delay in the appearance of Ibose memoirs and authentic documents tyhich might go some way in justification. In the first place, more than a century and a half ago, the literary masterpiece, of the mother, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu,— of which, by the by, the best edition is that ar ranged in Philadelphia by Mrs. Sara J, Halo in 1850—was put out surreptitiously, against the .wishes of the family, and under circumstances which afforded no guaranty of., authenticity., , We refer, of course,, to jthe, letters—the first good pictures of oriental life, imported into English literature, and the abiding defence 9 f Lady Mary’s character against the injuries of tiiat other great letter-writer, Walpole, as well ; as against the insults of Pope. Her status "in history has, in fact, been granted according to the evidence of those letters, and not after the testimony of her defamers. A certain Indul gent liking is accorded to the brilliant; Ambas-’ sadreasj'iri the first place for her charming cor respondence, in the second for her utility as the introducer of a great medical discovery into Christendom. Writing from Constanti nople of inoculation, or “ the invention of ingrafting," Lady Mary told the'world of Europe: ' . ’ “ Every year thousands undergo this opera tion; 'and the French ambassador says pleasantly that they take the smallpox here by way df diversion, as they take the waters in other countries. There is no example of any one that has died in it; and you may believe I am well satisfied of the safety of this experi- 1 ment since ! intend to try it on my dear little ■ son. I.am patriot enough to take pains to briDg this useful invention into fashion in Eng land.” We now have to do with the boy upon whoinJLady Mary risked this experiment, so terrible as it must have been to her motherly feelings. After serving in people’s minds as a type of the maitvais mijet, he has rested with out defence from his death in 1770 until now. ' The extraordinary delay in the publication of these memoirs, their mysterious debut, and their often problematic air, makes them an in felicity in the way of family revelation com pared with which the mother’s indiscreet escape into print was high credit and good fortune. The people whom Edward Wortley Montagu defames in a series of acrid personalities have not the importance for us that they had for his and their contemporaries. The grandfather whom he bated,—the cold country squire who fathered him, disliked him, and disinherited him, —even the mother whom he accuses pub licly with her cicisbco, Lord Hervey,—Cibber and Savage and Bully Rooke—the whole crowd of personal with whom the book has to do is a crowd with which our age has lost sym pathy. Changed manners, changed criterions, have lowered our interest in the court scandal of the first Hanoverian days. If these stings were to tell, they should have been dealt earlier. Nearly a century has removed the venom from a live condition in the serpent’s tooth to a bot tled state in the museum of slander. Yet the bookissiDgularly interesting. , It is a kind of supplement to Grammont’s memoirs, and traces with his own minuteness and intimacy the lives of the successors to his intriguing courtiers and complaisant beauties. It only professes to narrate the adventures of a certain short and youthful period, and, although there are no dates, must cease some time before the year 1747, when Montagu assumed his family position in England, arid represented the county of Huntingdon in ■ Parliament. A whole history of adventures and escapades as wild as anything in the present autobiography must be added to it in order to complete the story. Montagu, es caping to France from under a mountain of debts, became a Papist in Italy, and then a Mohammedan convert in Egypt, and finally died in Lyons on his return towards England, all alter the period at which this wild glimpse of autobiography terminates. At whatever date the sketch is written—(and it hears on its face the inconsistency of being very boyish in conception and scope, yet of a later literary i style than that of the author’s youthful day)— | it is composed upon a scale which would have j interfered with its termination, or else have | swelled it to such a bulk as to be unreadable. 1 The young Montagu goes off into historical i pictures at every chauge of scene. No canvas j would be large enough to contain a life 1 begun iu this way. The description of the ! Apollo Club, with long invented conversions j jn the style of Tac.tus—that of the Opera j House ball, with an elaborate procession. or i masque of all the society of the day—of Curll’s | garret of liack-w riters, sweating and scolding | together like a den of journeymen tailors—the i election-scene at “Bilgewater,”—and the | grandiose exhibitions of gypsy life and the Spanish Inquisition, in which the writer evi dently feels safe from witnesses, and romances and lays on the color as lie thinks would look best,—these efforts are too taxing to the inven tion, too artificial iu scheme and arrangement, to have been continued through an honest and conscientious chronicle, or to have occurred to j a man reviewing life iu his old age. Whether 1 we take the fragment as a very boyish effort, or I as the beguileuient of some quarantine idle ness or other in later times, it has, in the most j -charitable view, the unmistakable air 1 of desperate story-makihg.. Whether the I hoy describes his truancy and pre ; ixicious love affair in the house of the fish , monger,—or happens with suspicious oppor -1 tuneness to overhear his mother’s cruel pea) | of laughter as she receives Pope’s addresses— | or magnifies that woman in very humble life, ; almost old enough to be his mother, with" i whom he lived as husband for a few weeks, I into a superb heiress stolen by gypsies, and i finally rescued by him from the chambers of j the Inquisition at .Seville,—iu all these pro | digious inventive feats the accent of-truthful . 1 ness is completely lost. Yet the local color is preserved to a considerable degree, and it is j difficult to think of the work as a modem | forgery.. From the "horrible old Duke of j., Kingston, who in the first pages sits upon his pedigree and in his coronet like the figure of the old father in the first ■| plate of Marriage a la : Mode, down through j titled degrees such as those of Chesterfield, the Duchess of Marlborough, and Fox, and I then through Sir Richard Steele into the.'whole throng of Grub street and Wills Coffee-house —for each figure the writer has the traditional .•yiniafe, ilirt historic accent, besides a-wealth * of'private Scandal too apposite to be misap- generally tod,4ipi‘ri|>le 'to iVebtSd!

Tho reader mixes again in that painted, furbe lowcd, mincing throng thht distinguished tho Augustan age of British civilization; ~aml if the scene is horrible, it is now and vivid. ■ Such are the memoirs which, although re cently fuajlq public have ; been generally'snubbed, and ostracised’ from criti cism and discussion, As such personalities in deed deserve to be. ‘ In their American intro duction they wound no family pride, exhibit ho incobvenfent secrets, and tread on nobody’s Corns. The transaction, as far as. the Ameri can publishers are concerned, was an open and even! a liberal One., Messrs. Turner Bros., hearing of the, work in the hands of Mr. Thomas Newby—a London . book-publisher with a highly respectable class of publications —paid a handsome honorarium for the privilege Of an Ataefican issue, which thtey haye noW prepared in 'a neat form,and which they pre sent as a : literary problem tp: the reading wdrld. Dr. Shelton Mackenzie, in ji few pre fatory words, acknowledges the interest which ■ the singular pages have‘had for 1 him, hut does not attempt to account for their flights, their contradictions, nor their odd concealment hitherto* All we can say of the work is that it indicates a career as varied and astonishing as that recited in any of the famous autobiographies—as chaugeful as that of Benvenuto Cellini, as blind with passion and distorted/with vanity as that of Haydon; that it wanders over the earth,and runs a-mok through reputations and characters, as Poe loved to do; but that it revives, with galvanic energy, the figures of one of the strangest episodes of English history. Its legitimacy may be better determined, —whether for vindication or de tection—by any reader for himself, through a collation of dates, and a comparison of style with the author’s avowed works, his “ Reflec tions on the Rise and Fall of the Ancient Re publics,” and his papers contributed to the “ Philosophical Transactions.” With this much by way of presentation, we commend it as an enigma to those who are interested in the “witty’’age of English letters. .
