THEATRIcAL.-At the st. Charles, tonight, the
tragedy of "Othello " will be performed, Mr.. Mac
ready playing Iago, and Mr.. Ry-no-Mr. Vanden-
hoff appearing as Ohello The change in the cast,
that is the substitution of Mr.. Vandenhoff for the
inimitable Mr.. Ryder, will cause much rejoicing
among the pay-goers. Last evening Mr.. Mac
ready played King Lear to large audience, and
their qualification was much increased by the ap-
pearance of Mr.. Vandenhof, for the first time
during the engagement Of Mr. Macready. His per-
Torrance of the part of Edgar was happily con-
ceived, and elected great applause.
AT The American, our old favorite, Booth, appears
as Sir Edwdrd Mortimer, in "The Iron Chest a
character in which he has no rival, and in which
no one will tire Of seeing him when he attempts to
do it justice; and now that the other star is d.
viding with him the theatrical armament, it may
reasonably be expected that he will do his best to
shine brig htest and longest.
Al the Orleans, the celebrated grand opera of
" La Muette de Portici," (the Dumb Girl of Por-
tici0 by Auber, will be given tomorrow evening,
in which Madame Monplaisr will appear, for the
first time in this city, in the part of Fenella, the
dumb girl.

The STATE BANK.-The Circular of the new
Directors, owing to our having pointed out its
beauties to the public eye, is likely to become quite
a celebrated document. 1t formed the principal
topic of discussion in financial circles yesterday,
and is justly regarded-and it deserves to be-as
remarkably clear logical, candid, and clever fnan-
cial document. Some suppose it " has done for :"
the Bank others think that it will do for the Drec.
tors, and few-but there is no need of detailing
all the speculations upon the subject; they are as
various as were those of members of Congress and
letter-wriiers about the Protocol, and about as
substantial

Hamlet, like many other men, was man OF
strong determination, not to be diverted from any
purpose he had once resolved upon putting into
execution.
His interview with the ghost determines him first
TO corroborate this unnatural communication, and
if true, to revenge it it will be observed that he
| only gives it partial credence at first he does not
even communicate i 10 any one save his bosom
friend Horatio ana even with him he qualities his
suspicious:
''Observe my uncle; if his occuled guilt
Do not itself unkennel in one speech
1t is damned ghost that we have seem
A A. x my i%sg .,I,sI are as foul
By this it will be seen that he gives the guilty party
every benefit of doubt even surmisng that it may,
after all, be nothing more than the vision of
diseased imagination; but, when the result of the
play leaves him no further room to doubt-when he
is convinced that the communication of the ghost
| although preturnatural, was strictly according to
truth, his determination to punish his fathers MUIR
! derer is settled, and from that time forward his
character is altered-the trick of assumed lunacy
has served its turn, and is no longer necessary
he burns for revenge, and only waits for opportunity
to take it to his mother he is austere yet speaks to
| her little more in sorrow than in anger; she is
| still his mother under the head of ambiguous
| readings something more will be written on this
point to the King, whenever they meet, Hamlet,
who can hardly restrain his hand from taking instan
revenge, behaves, from this point, in manner
which is positively rude-quite different to the
polished civility with which he previously treated
him; still he obeys him as his sovereign, and in
| obedience to his mandates, departs for England
On his return, it will be observed that with re-
igious feeling-considerng the church-yard as
much sanctuary as the church itself-and with a
due regard to the soemnity of the occasion, Shaks
peare does not make Hamlet take his revenge whilst
Ophelia's grave is yawnng in front of the guilty
monarch but, in the following scene, after disclo
sing Horatio some more of his villanles, he says
Does it not, think thee, stand me now upon.
He that hath killed my King, and wonged me- mother
Popped in between the election and my hopes;
Thrown out his angle for my proper life.
nd with such cOZenage is I not perfect conscience
To quit him with this arm ~
He only waits his opportunity, when, without com
hitting any outrage upon religious ceremonies or
courty proceedings, he send to his long account
the royal villain. Even when he knows that his
own existence is drawing to a rapid conclusion he
will not be defeated from his determined purpose,
but spares few moments to complete his long
cherished revenge; then, with a mind at ease, sat-
isfed that he has fulfilled his mission yet STILL with
natural fondness for life, TO which he would cling
still longer if he could-he dies
And flights of angels sing thee TO thy rest

MARDI GRAs.-The day once so highly honored
in our city, by masks. pageantry, mummery and
sensible fooling," came and passed. yesterday,
with no other notice than that which was given to
it by some dozens of boys, throwing dust and -four
about the Streets and occasionally pelting with mud
and bricks some desperate and solitary masker.
This was rather poor fun especially to quiet people,
who had business in the streets, and might well
have been omitted in the programme, for all the
good it appeared to do even to the boys. We hope
we have seen the last of Mardi Gras-at least of
its nonsense

CoMPLIMENTARY.-Ar recent copy of the German
Wiener Zeitung, the official gazette of Vienna,
contains well-written sketch of James Buchanan
and speaks in terms of high commentator of his
dispatches as Secretary of State Most of his
writings have been translated into German-as was
the whole of his celebrated argument on the Ore
gon te-and all, the Zetung declares, have been
warmly admired for their lucid perspicuity, their
chaste and temperate simplicity, and their entire
freedom from useless and Ostentatious ornament

LEcTURE-The Rev. VIM. r. Nicholson will
deliver lecture this evening, at the Armory Hall,
on Civilization in its relation to indulgence, or civil
lzation the friend of the poor" The object of the
series of lectures, of which this is the first is to raise
money to aid in the establishment of an asylum for
the relief of destitute females. The cause is one
which should fill the Hall, even with an Indifferent
lecturer and IN ordinary subiect-but the lecturer
in this instance is one of distinguished talent, and
his subject the most important that can engage the
attention of the philosopher philanthropst or states
man. 1t affords large field for the most ample
powers, and if the lecturer shows that civilization
has been advantageous to the poor, he will have
accomplished a task which has been beyond the
capacity of some of the most renowned men of this
generation. At all events, the attempt to do so
much, by one who can certainly do great deal,
will draw together large audience.
