PARIS, Thursday, July %, 1882.
The Prince-Prcsidcnt, as he is inya
riably styled has gone on a starring tour in the
provinces. The prejudice against the stage as
profession, Is unaccountable, unless it be for the
reason that the pulpit and rostrum have 90 many
comedians in Europe, that they are Jealous of the
regular drama, and degrade their rivals for public
applause. For surely it is as thorough game OF
personal show-ofi, of gold, gimp, silk and purple,
of star and stock actors, of knee-bendings, hand
fittings, incense, grease powder pun, strut, sword
exercise, hired singing melodramatic bosh, and
concatenated swindle gag in the one as the ether
The idea Of being simply man, OF soul vast,
oyerarching the heavens, throwing its lasso over
the milky-way, and bringing it down in mathe-
matical beauty to the earth, of finding dignity and
consolation in the temple Of the Infinite, making
saints and prophets look as bubbles that have
burst on the sea of eternity which forever and
forever bears up the majesty of the intellect, and
puts the material insoence Of politicians and
priests into the toy.shOp of babes-this as yet
has not radiated over Europe. To recount the
doings of oppressor and oppressed is pretty
much all that is left to the writer in Europe OF
democracy ostracised, Of Romish Remuneration
of thought and the liberty Of the press, OF drl-
matte parade without the beauty OF lyrical poetry,
music and idealization of abused rhetoric TO hide
yillany, Of sneaks, spies, passports, conscnpuon-
sing heavenly muse!
