paroxysm of grief, and there was not a corner of
that house, Dimes, that did not re- echo that poor
actors sobs. The audience was completely over
come, and an honest burst of sympathy made the
painted trees on the stage tremble as if struck
with sudden storm. Women wept loudly, and
strong men silently, and during the remainder OF
the evening the performance was scarcely audi
bic throug h the hurricane of applause which the
crowd sought, after their own fashion, to sooth
the poor actors wounded heart.
There was something very melancholy, in the
thought of that wretched mans coming from the
bed of death to don gay attire, and utter
studied witticisms for the amusement of crowd,
not one of whom dreamed of the anguish that lay
fostering under the painted cheek and stage.

theatre of Life there many around us like that
poor actor, smiling gaily on the multitude, while
at home lies some mystery of sorrow, whose shad,
ow is ever present with them in busy places, and
in solitude revels upon their hearts as a ghoul
among the tombs ?-Putnam's Maya cine.
