To the Editor Of the National Era
Ii you think the following account of the
representation of Uncle Toms Cabin at the
National Theatre, Philadelphia will interest

me n few days since, from an Intelligent gentle
man of that city:
81 went last night TO ace Uncle Toms
Cabin. at tho National Theatre. 1t ia worth far
more, to the philanthropist, to nee the audience

and thus the ears and hearts Of Il large class
are reached, who have heretofore been igno.
rantly ard cruelty bitter in their projudIces
against color. Tho piece IN dramatizcd, acts
well and il full Of incident and pathos. Its
tone is extremely religious, and well calculated
to produce powerful and beneficial impression
on the moral nature, 1t any piece that ever was
| played on the stage can be said to have such u
tendency. In sentiment it is, ~ you may sup
| pose, thoroughly abolition, and cannot but lend
essential aid ~ the caase we have 80 much at
heart, There WAS much applause manifested
ut the expression Of the sentiments of love of
liberty and equality of rights (among men,
whatever be their color,) and also at those

and the slave hunter and dealer foled-as in
the escape OF Eliza Harris across the ice, and
that of George Harris and the rest with Phin-
cas- Fletcher at their head As u general thing,
there was much more deep feeling than bos.
ferrous applause, owing to the religious and pa
thctc character Of the play. Tears were shed

confess that was affected little more strongly
