CESMr HUDsoS's LECTURE oS OTHELLo, Nc-
This able lecturer delivered the second of his course al
the Society Library last evening. The subjects selected
were the characters OF OcO and his gentle lady DeSdt-
uoaa In reviewing the former, Mr.. Hudson gave us
novel idea of the disposition of who has earned from
the critics the title of jealous Moor. Mr.. Hudaon en-
deayored in some very clear and elegantly worded
marks TO show that Othelo had such trait in his char
acer-bene of 100 noble mind to suspect OF his own ac-
cord her whom nc had chosen for the partner OF his for
tupcs Jealousy argues Mr.. Hudson is feeling which
,djpo,,s the possessor to doubts and suspclons-we
;ve only the substance OF his remarks whereas II will
annear 10 any one who reads the book that Oheos tenn
norarv doubt of his wes purity created and SUM

fore be properly termed jealousy for Othelo TAR from
having ha, disposition it will be remembered was very
10th indeed 10 distrust Desdemona. Such view OF
the Moors character is at reasonable and adnlra-
bic His noble disposition which proving ITSELF by bra
very in battle does not restrain him from perccving Bra
ban,os right to brand him with the appro5ous epthcs
which are to be found in the play and therefore dsposes
him 10 check the quarrel which had arisen between his
own friends and the ncensed fathers retainers and &C
company the latter whittier he may appoint to hear MS
charge and answer it, ably expaated upon and also
Desdemonas reasons for loving notwithstanding GER
tain well known point in womans character which dis
poses her to give the preference in matters OF the heart
to those who have honoraby distinguished themselves
whether as heroes or those who have gained renown in
more peaceablc though less brilliant and honorable
pursuits.
She loved me for the dangers had passd,
And loved her that she did pity them
The lecturers conception of the gentle Desdemona
was no less admirable than that which he had formed
with regard to Ohello Mr. Hudsons clear and concise
style of narration is peculiar adapted TO such eNposons
and we would advise all admirers OF Shakespeare 10 hear

him with perjury in swearing before Judge lngraham
that he had not en,iced Esther Gouldng from her home
