UMr. Fry a Dramatic critic who

presses himself in the following man.
ncriu reference to Women playing
male parts in the Drama
We have a constitutional horror of
seeing the worst of farccs-that of wo-
men dressed in mems clothcs-touch-
ing sword hilt, chllcnging, and SO forth,
all in The harmonic tones Of the Sex
consccrated by nature to gentlcncss
and love. Alboni even was a NUS
ancc in such characters; they arc ut
terly and Incidentally bad, running
in the face of Nature.
Alboni, we agree, was stoulish as
Oyslnl, and Pico was a bouncing
Picretto; but Iwhat do --Messrs.-

structures on "W ebster," a"ainst whose
rules Tor spelling, we sometimes rur
counter, is from the pen ofthat learned
philosopher DR.. Dowler. Every one
feels sinsibly, the silly changes made
from time to time, in English Orthog
raphy, as it would seem for no other
purpose, than to call out a new edition
Of "Webster." Judge of the business
Of the these remarks for yourselves.
In photography Webster was pro-
fessed inovator. lie came forward to
the work Of innovation wholly uninvi-
ted and his bold attempts which if
successful, would have wholly corrup-
ted and polluted the language, have
received the countcnancc of no one
who loves the language Of Milton,
Shakespeare and the American Consti-
tuition. The venerable photographer
was indeed mortified and disguised
with his own wretched tinkering and
bctch work in his early efforts, and
Webster beganto alter Webster, in
hopes of compromising and making
a treaty with offended good taste, but
without success. There was still a
casus bclia unsettled. The latest
Of his mutations are embodied in the
Merriam Qua:to. Here he shows him
~elfcon Mt to write sou1eagu and not
Suvcran bridegyoom and not briige-
goona; and such like vast concessions
are made. He however, prefers Z in
place of an in chemistry, though no
practical chemist does; and he will
by no means, allow the to join the r
in centre, metre, and theatre; al
though he is obliged to unite the d.
vorced letters, tr, again in the deriva-
tives, central, mctrtcal, and theetrl-
cal. in order to avoid constructions
which are no more nor less than the
consequences of his altered
photography; namely, mcierical, cen
'eraI, and McateracaI. These are
'nly sample of the great mis-spcller
,; English.

: MORALS IN GoTHAM.--It is not a
, all hattcring to the intelligence, Of th'
age, to look on the ate Of morals il
the great London of America.
would seem that the light of intelli
gcncc and the refinement Of human
life, which is the offspring thereof
dims the eye of frail man, and leads
him into the unnerving cffeminacy o.
vice and immortality. This is a hu.
initiating reflection one that we
would fain get rid Of, by supposing a
steady progression to a better order Of
things, notwithstanding an occasional
rctrogression.
Scarcely paper of late, reaches us.
that does not bear on its face the de-
tails of the fall of some new victim,
at the shrine of Mammon-somc man
who has commenced life with "honor
bright" and a clear prospect of early
acquiring a competency, ifnot super
fluffy, of the worlds goods and chat
ties, who to crafty the thirst for gain
in order to be tic "chicf Nabob of
Gotham" has fallen from grace to
bring shame and ruin upon himself
and family connection, forcccr. Is
this the legitimate result of refined So
cicty? No, we think not. The press
should continue to heap the whole
weight of public odium upon such
men, and drag them down to the com
mon level of the low Williams, and
thieves who inhabit the "Toombs''
they arc no better; indeed if we come
to examine the causes of crime in the
lower walks of life, they arc much
worse ; for they have not the excuse
Of poverty, to tempt them. There
should be no sympathy for them
neither on account of the position
they once occupied" Or on account
IF family connection. Let them be
made to pay back to society their ill
sottcn gains, and as partial recon
pence for. their unjustiliablc iniquity,
crve tho State in their declining days
n public Prisons to keep company
With the commoncst fcllons. There
hould be no effort to screen them, or
id extended in getting them where
he stern arm Of justice cannot meet
ut the reward of sin 4; and we opine
hat a few illustrious Examples"
'ould serve to check this growing in
luity, and shame to the nation. {

TerY near at H0mc.-At the an

serve College, in Ohio, on the oath
ulto. Mr. friedrich Douglass addressed
the literary societies. His theme was
"THE CLAIMS OF THE NEGRO RACE
vie1ccd IN aphycological anil phys.

There would be some sense in such
a lecture at "Dahomy," or in Genital
Africa, where it is difficult to distin-
guish his fellow citizens, in their ma
ked symmetry, from the graceful Gu
rapg-ou-tang. The idea Of an "inky
son of Africa's swelling Shore" en-
deavouring to eplighten a congrega-
ton Of Anglo-Saxons on such a sub
ject, must have been--to use the
homcly expression, a very great cry,
and nothing but wool. We have no
marvel for such manifestations of "a
naticIsm. 1t is readily accounted for
when we consider that the moon does
not return regularly to "Apogcc."
