Tragedy at tbe Chestnut. ■ ll Othello” Is an excellent tragedy by which to test the talent of the stock company supporting-the con ventional star. Whether the assumes the impersonation of Othello or logo, he ought to find a sufficient counterpoise in -the leading man who stands first in his support. The contrast between Othello and 4jyo is most picturesque and startling. Mountains whose, tops are capped with sun-tinted snow, and whose bases are cleft with tropic fiower _fllled ravlncs,neve'r afford contrasts more splendid 'and opposed. An actor of good' sense, whatever be his genius, will never demur as to. which character he shall assume, because of the ques. tioned prominence of either. In these days of the degenerate drama the public has ceased to ex pect a performance in which all .Die delineators shall be’ symmetric In the proportions they bear to 'one another.- Eat those who attempt to star lt'wlth Shakspeare generally have some ability. They are at least familiar with the traditional points. Per haps they have some hereditary talent as well as a decided natural tact for- the stage, and It,is likely that, amid all the chaff of meretricious applause obtained through the favoritism of a biassed publlo and press, some few grains of the wheat of criticism may have bosh vouchsafed them for nutrition. At all’events, the plays of Shakspeare possess a natu ral ttfcrmony which no injudicious casting of cha racters or remediless woakness of conception can wholly destroy. , Wq have selected the play of •< Othello ” to dwell upon, both because it is so fair a teat of’ the capabill ty of a'stook company, and because it is one of'the freshest in the recollection Jor the pubiio. It was produced at the Chestnut-street Theatre on Satur day evening to an audience which, considering .the remarkably small number of legs present, produced no Inconsiderable amount of pedal applause. Mr. • Juilusßrutus Booth was the logo,'Mr. Frank Mor daunt ’Othello, Mr. Lewis Baker Cassio, Mr. J. T. Ward Rotterigot-Mr. W. S. Higgins Brabanlio, Miss Annie Ward Desiemtma, and a Mrs.Eaker, we be lieve, (and not Miss BelleVauglm, as stated in the bills, j Emilio. To these, as the prlnclpal charactors of the cast, we shall conflnCour remarks. , It has always been ourconvlotlonthat no aotor should enjoy a monopoly of praise or blame, be-, oaufehe la so fortunate or unfortunate as ,to be a star.: If Ms talents are preeminent, or.if they are .only ethinent, be will naturally elicit a larger share of attention. But it la unjust to the dramatic ap petite of the public; It is detrimental to the ulti mate interests of the dramatic profession, for the critic to permit the whole action of the play to rest on him, by imputation,' by confining orttiolsm'to him alone. The stock and the star actor should fare alike, according to the measure of their merit, and judgment should be meted out to both without fear or favor. In the case of Shakspeare, par "tioularly, the old Mosaio law of an eye for an eye, a tooth for a- tooth,, must bo reinstated. If they lay violent hands upon Shakspeare, violent* ‘ hands must be laid upon them. Were the eye and the tootk law rigorously observed, however, It Is to be feared many a stock aotor wouldbe left in a most * deplorable condition, a living illustration ol_the line,“Sans teeth,sans eyes,sans taste,Bans eve rything.” In playing Shakspeare they ought at least to make their attempts with modesty, and* venerate thej reputation of the bard. Although many praise him In a blind way, merely because to do so has become an evidence of civilisation,still,* In almost every stock company are to be found those ready to assume any character with the utmost non chalance. They forget, when with rash hands they mutilate Mm, that although they may shatter the > ’ vase of his poetry, the scent of their roses will hang, round it still. , • . * It is not onr Intention minutely to crltioise the* acting of Mr. J. B. Booth In logo. Being neither very had nor'very good, hls delineation Is not worth. It. When an actor shall arise who shall give a now reading of the part, worthy to he a oompanloh.pio tnre to the one or two retained fn admiring memory, it will he time enough for that. The rendithm of Mr. Booth is fair and gentlenaanly. It is far batter, than that of any stock aotor in this city, and doubt less superior to that of many a leading main who has entthe traces of respectable stock acting and ■ 'is starring it dlsrepntablyin the provincial harness. It was a conceit of Coleridge that Kean was not a. sufficiently thoroughbred gentleman to play Othello-. Accepting the world’s definition of a. gentleman, It. seems to ns that the character of logo is the one to* whoseportrayal gontlemanlineas is most essential. He has the blaadness, the suavity, the soft words, the smooth accents, the glib manner of the man of society. It Is precisely these requisites which Mr- Boothpossess.es. It is worse than useiess to inform an aotor who attempts a part that has bean lnfintto in voTumoana evprßSSlSß,ahTtlfst- J. K. CAX.DWBII, bis physique Is not of an order to support with effect -so laborious a rdle. Mr. Booth, cannot be accused of not understanding Hie part. The intellectuality . of the Booths is the character of his countenance. His bearing throughout the great third act, and Ms dumb - action at the close, were well con ceived, and fulfilled the promise whloh the more than ordinary Intelligence of Ms face hed out, But' the Impression whloh the whole Impersonation pro duced was that It was that of a man who possessed a natural' love and talent for the stage, a laudable ambition to be a fine delineator or Shakspeare,.oc- • oaslonally large ideas of the character attempted, but without the physical attributes necessary to a first-olass performer. Neither la Mr. Booth faithful in Ms readings—an unpardonable error In an actor whomust have played the part many, many times,' Whether Ms lapses were occasioned by Ms impetuo sity of stage action, or whether he was In the first place careless hr the study of the part, or whether on Saturday evening ho deemed the character of the audience justified an Interlinear “cutting” of. scenes, wo are left to conjecture only. No occasion exists for Mr. Booth attempting Shakspearean parts. No one wishes to see Mm In them. There are one or two actors whose Tare genius bids Mghest ' for them, and who accordingly should be allowed a monopoly. He is going to attempt Hamlet this even ing, when life may feel sure that no one will desire to witness him in it, after having seen the really fine conceptions his brother Edwin.' ' Let Mr. J, B. Booth hew out another path for Mmself in the his trionic forest; and we dare say he will discover an elegant sufficiency ofbays and laurels. If we had not been informed by the play blllß that Mr.Mordaunt essayed the part of. Othello for the first time, we should eertalnlyhave supposed It the last, so heavy and burdensome’was the style in which It was given. TMs .pay have been due, however, to the faot of Mr, Mordaunt’s being the heavy man of the Qhestnut-stroet company,' and to hls cherishing a conviction that It was Ms duty to display the politician’s virtue of consistency. Mr. Mordauntis impersonation would have been very good, probably, If It had not been very bad. The only point he made throughout the whole play was thepolpt of speaking in a most heavy and lroh tongued voice, and as If each sentence weighed so many pounds. He acted In a most ponderous and massive stylo, and In not one'single In stance developed any of the delicacy and grace of Othello's character, in some scenes lie did justice to its force. We have the Idea—an erro neous one it may be—that Mr. Mordannt would •make an effective actor in the BUI Sykes school.' He has a massive and compact frame, and a voice capable of much sledge-hammer execution. In sneh a character as Othello he ta even more out ofplaoe than Mr. Booth as logo: Before he again performs it, It will be necessary for Mm to study it, so as to be at least perfect In the words ofthe part. On Saturday evening he transposed whole sentences In the most startling and original style, and evolved a number of new meanings. The good soene in , Mr. Mordaunt’s acting—for It Is not to be denied that he possesses seme merit—was In the second scene of the second act, where Othello rushes in from the guard-house and confronts the drnnken Cassio, exclaiming, “ Hold, foryourUvosU” In scenes of subdued passion and pathos his groans were of the most dismal nature; more sugges tive, It is to beremarked, of pangs oforamp than,of pangs of conscience. .. . > . Mr. Lewis Baker, was excellent as Cassio, giving ns th« only thoroughly sensible and consistent piece of noting to the performance. The oharaoter of ito derigo waß worse than Wasted on Mr. J. T. Ward, who did net begin to entertain the slightest concep tion of what was required of him. He was llkeffar lequin on Ms good behavior. Mr. W. S. Higgins, as Brabantio, acted with more vigor and discretion than he haß been-Jn the habit of evlnolng. Mlsa' Annle Ward was the Desiemona. She knew her part and dressed handsomely, and was as mnch Desiemona as a vivified fashion-plate of a pride would be, simper ing and attitudinizing on the stage. Lastly, a Mrs; Baker was the Emilia, Commencing with Mr. Booth and going through with the characters as we have, the merit of the several characterizations in the de scending spiral may be'jald to grow small by degrees and (all bnt the) beautifully less. In a word, the New Chestnut can never hope to succeed in producing tragedyuntilltengages tragic stars of the first class, and a oompany with at least a tincture of traglo talent. The management has yet to learn that all leading men with musde wUI not do for Othello, and that a singing chambermaid Is hardly the Desdemema the pnbllc have a right to expect, however charming she may be in her legiti mate sphere. It must learn, too, that the business or the stage must be conducted with ..promptitude, and that, In order to give efficiency to a tableau, all supernumeraries shonld be decently drilled; and that the more of them there are of age the better. pshapeucbia.

He mur dered a Mrs. Chamberlain, wife of Lewis Chamber, lain, of Shamokln towns Mp. The evidence m the ease was aIL circumstantial. That wMch weighed most heavily against the accused, was the imprint ofthe heel'of ahoot on a leather trunk in the house, which had been broken open and robbed, and wMoh was said to correspond with the hoot of the accused In the rows and position of the nails shown by the imprint.'

My—' Thjb Ooj tera&y, In Committee of the ] unanimous yote t the tonrih, eigtUi Beotlops of t£e bIU of tl tojra: Fourth, That ftU p6UUoal po' The author of these resolutions, and those who concur in his views, appear to me to commit the radical error of supposing that the obstacles to ob taining. the peace which we all desire consists in the difficulty or finding proper agencies for negotia ting, so that the whole scope of the resolutions ends ■ln nothing but suggesting that, If the enemy will treat, the best agenoy would be State delegates to a convention! whereas, the whole and only obstacle is that the enemy will not treat at all, or entertain any other proposition than that we should'sub mlt to their yoke, acknowledge that we are criminals, and appeal to their mercy for pardon. I win add that history was replete with Instances of the Interminable difficulties and delays which at tend the attempt to negotiate are numerous. If this has been the oase where the parties possessed. full power to conclude a treaty, what oau we hope from an assembly of negotiators from thirty or forty States, who,ln the..midst of an exasperating war fare, are to meet without power to oonolude any thing! In the history of our country we find that In a time of profound peace, when the most cordial brotherhood sentiment existed, and when a long and bloody war had been brought to a triumph ant olose, It required two years to assemble a convention and bring its deliberations to an end, and smother year to procure the: ratifi cation of their labors. With such a war as the pre sent In progress, thevlews of the large assemblage of negotiators proposed would undergo constant changes, according to thevlolssitudes, according to the snuggle, aud tbe attempt to secure concordant views would soon be abandoned, and - leave the par ties more embittered than ever, less hopeful of the possibility of successful negotiation. Again, how. is the difficulty resulting from the conflicting pre tensions of ,the two belligerents In regard to several of tbe States to be overcome 1 la it sup posed that Virginia would outer into a convention with a'delegatlon from what our enemies choose to term the State of West Virginia, and thus recognize an insolent-and violent dlßmemberment of her territory 1' Or would the ..United states consent that West Virginia should be deprived of her pretensions to equal rights alter having formal ly admitted her as a State, and allowed her to vote at a Presidential election 1 Who wouldsend a dele gation from Louisiana, Tennessee, Kentucky, or Missouri! The enemy claim to hold the govern ments of- thOße-States,-while we assert them to be members of the Confederacy. Would delegates be received from both sides! If so, there would soon be a disruption of the Convention. * -If delegates are received Grom neither side, then a convention of the States most vitally interested In the result would remain, unrepresented; and what value oould be at tached to mere recommendations of a body of nego tiators under such circumstances ! •We have received, In connection, with the above subject, the following despatch: Washikbtoh, Jan. 22.—1 t Is untrue, as has beeh. reported, that Francis P.

What '"is- the Object of Blair’s Second Trip to Biclimonti T Mort Speculations, Burners, Opinions,, and Facts, J6ff Davis on Peace and Reconstruction—An Xmportant Document in view of the present Peace Excitement, Denial of'the Reported Interview of ' Hr; Blair with the Wash ington Cabinet. WisHiHfiTOK, Jan. 21.—The Intelligencer ofSatur day, referring to the departure of Mr. Blair on Fri day, says: ' - . “The pertinacity with whleh the lnteUtgencer has determined to adhere .to a grave view of the Blair mission—based on its confidence in the veracity Of persons in high position, as well as on the signs of “» times—ls strengthened by what appearedto be very reliable rnmors or. the action of the rebel Con gress In regard to Peace Commissioners., con jolntlv wlth this apparently aoourate Intelligence ftom Richmond aeours the generally conceded fact that Mr. Blair Is again on his way Bom Washing ton to the rebel capital. It Is for the public, as well as ourselves,'to draw•tlnferenoes from, those colnoi-, dences, which tally so'remarkably with ail the speculations made in this column in regard to this mission.” . . In another paragriph it says: ' “We have good reason—not to say authority—for, stating that Mr. Blair, Sr., goes to Blohmond upon no hollow or heartless mission, bUt upon one of sub stance, giving hope to patriotic men that an Oppor tunity for the' highest reason will be afforded to statesmen tb bring the present civil war to a elose by negotiation.” : The; Intelligencer also says that Mr. Blair will freelyconferwiththe members of the rebel Con gress.* This statement Is corroborated by a' pri vate letter which liasbeen received in this city from a gentleman of some prominence in Washington. He says, thatFranols P.Blair, Sr., returns to Blch mohd with full authority from President Lincoln to give sale conduct to Washington for peace oommli ,sionors from Jederaon Davis. 'On the'day Blair left (Friday) the Cabinet, was several hoursla ses sion,and.lt was understood that the oenferenoe re lated to his movements. But beyond the fact that a conference was held, nothing is known, although the spebnd visit has some significance following so cloeMy as It does on the first. DAVIB ON PEAOK AHB BEOOHSTEtJC'riON. On the lTthof last November the Senators from Georgia, In the rebel Congress, Inquired of Jeff Davis what were Ms opinions concerning separate State'actlon In the direction of.peace. In reply, he Condemned separate State aotion because “ The lm medlatefand lnevltabletendenoy of such action Is to create discord and to suggest to our enemies the possibility of a disßOlutlon of the Confederacy, and to encourage them by the spectacle of our divi sions, to more determined action against ns.” After: thus comiemhlng this policy he speaks,, of united, as opposed to separate action of the States, and says: IT all the States of the two hostile federations are - to-meet In convention, it Is plain that such meet* lng'can oniytake place after an agreement as to .time, place, and terms on* which they are to meet. Now, without ClsouEatag the- minor, although hot trifling, difficulties of agreeing as te time and plaoo. it is certain that the States would sever consent to a convention without a pro ' vtous'agreement as to the terns on which they were to meet. . The proposed convention must meet on the basis either that no State should, - against Its own will, be bound by the decision of the convention, or that It shall be so bound. -But It is plainly an-agreement on the basis 'ihatno State atoll be bound, without Its consent, .by the result of the deliberations, would boan.aban sdonmont on the part of the North of its pretended ; right of coercion—wouldbe an absolnte recognition ;.of the independence-of the several States, of the Confederacy—would be, in a -word, so complete a concession of the rightfulness of our cause that the . most visionary cannot nope for such an agreement. Jn.advance or the moettog>f-a convention the . only Other possible baste ol meeting is that each State should agree bafnighana tn hq hnnnd-hy the - 'lesipiuirormc convcntion; and such agreement is but another form of submission to Northern do minion, as we well know that In such a convention we should be outnumbered nearly two to one on the very threshold.of the scheme proposed. Therefore, we are met by an obstacle-which cannot be removed. IS not the Impracticable character of the prefect apparentl Yon will observe ttot I leave entirely out of view the suggestion that a convention of au the Statesof both federations should be held by common consent, without any,prevlous understanding as to the effect of Its decisionsj should meet merely to debate and passiesolntlonß ttot are to bind no-one. It is not supposed that-thte can realty be the meaning attached to the proposal by these who are active In its support, althongh the resolutions to which you Invite my attention declare the function of snoh a conven tion would be simply to propose a plan of peace withthe oonsentof the two belligerents; or, In other words, to-act as negotiators in treating for peace. This part of the scheme Is not Intelligible tome. If the convention Is only to be held with the consent of the two belligerents, ttot consent cannot be ob tained without negotiation. The plan then would resolve-Itself Into a scheme that the two Govern ments should negotiate an agreement for ttoap pointment. of negotiators -to make proposals for a treaty. It seems much more prompt ana simple to negotiate fl>r peace at once, than to negotiate for the appointment of negotiators, who are to meet without power to do anything but make proposals. If the Government or the United States 1s willing to make peace, it .will treat for peace directly. Ifun wllllng, it will refuse to consent to a convention of States, ‘.

Sib : Colored people ride In all the city oais to New York, and have done so forabdut eight months. ju&st spring a colored woman was eiocted from one of the city oars by the conductor, aided by apoUceman, whom he'oailed on. The woman proved -to be .the. wife or a sergeant to one of the stored , regiments to New York. The mattes was- taken to hand by toe “Committee on BeorattlnW” -of the trnlon League cinh, nnder the superin tendence of Mr. Oolyen, the late Mr. Ta Coates Noyes volunteering as counsel, and was brought to' legal adjudication. It was found that there was no law, State or municipal, making any dlsttaoHrin of color to pnbllo conveyances, and the . action of the conductor and policeman was entirely condemned. The policeman was examined by toe Police. Oom ; missioned, and confessed be had no Instructions which authorised toe action he had taken. He was severely censured; and threatened with expulsion in case of a repetition of tho offenoe. The directors of all toe city railroad companies then at once gave notice, that colored persons could In future ride in their oars, and they have done so from that time forward. No feeling exists to New-York against riding with colored people, and the re-opening of toe question here would not be for a moment tole rated by public sentiment. .

The Trenton Monitor, describing It, says: “Mr. Culver, toe stalwart Copper son of Hud son, drawing his Inspiration from the mischievous Han Holsman, who sat right behind him, to oppos leg the rescinding of the role first adopted, gave himself .full swing, and spoke exactly as follows: ‘ Mr. Oltrk, honor is toe foundation of virtue.

Some of the subscribers took. alarm, and infused to make good their offers. Of coarse the one per centum advanced was hat, the consequence of the defection was; that the eredit of the Government was seriously injured, and the rising patriotism of the nation At the end. of Tear years these gen tlemen who then shrank from, the hazard of lending their capital to.-their country, qame forward with a claim for their forfojtod pledge, money, and by some means or other succeeded In presenting their claim so Insidiously as almost to. have escaped detection. Thanks, however, to Mr. Stevens, these capitalists, who are willing to, lend- to the Government only when they can serve their own pockets, have been completely thwarted. Ifanyof the subscribers to the loan of ,18(9 are entitled to indemnification, theyare those.patriotic citizens who fulfilled their contracts, although the loan had sunk ten per centum in consequence of the political troubles at the Bonth.
