IRA ALDRIDGE THE COLORED TRACE
DIAN.

The following notice of the negro actor, Ira
Aldridge, is from the St, Petersburg correspon.
dcnce of lie Nord, under date of Dec. 5.
1.-The success of the negro actor, Ira Aldridgc,
has been wonderful. At his debut, people were
curious to see an Othello who needed neither crap
nor pomade to blacken his face. Many expected
tears of laughter rather than tears OF emotion,
when they learned that Iago and Desdemona
would reply to him in German. The absence Of
an English troupe forced him to play with Ger,
man actors. Those who counted on tuis were
strangely deceived. From hs appearance Oh tie
stage the African artist completely captivated his
audience by his harmonious and resonant voice.
and by a style full of simplicity, nature and disni,
ty. For the first time We had seen a tragic hero
talk and walk like common mortals, without dec,
lamation and without exaggerated gestures. We
forgot that we were in n theatre, and followed the
drama as if it had beer q real transaction.
THE scene in the Third Act, when the senti'
ment Of jealousy is reused in the ferocious Moor
is the triumph of Aldridge. At the first word Of
the willy insiruation you see his eyes kindle; you
feel the tears in his voice when he questions Iago,
then the deep sobs which stile it; and finally
when he is persuaded that his Indebtedness is
complete, q cry of ruge, or rather a roar like tina,
of a wild beast, starts from his abdomen. !
still seem to hear that cry it chilled US with fear
and made every spectator shudder. Tears wet his
cheeks his mouth foamed and his eyes flashed
fire. | have never seen an artist identify himself
so perfectly with the character which he repre-.
sents. An actor told me that he saw him sob for
some moments after his exit from the scene. Ey,
ery3ody, men and women, wept. Boileau was
right in saying to actors; Weep yourselves, il
you would make others weep Rachel. in the
Fourth Act of Les Horace, is the only artist who
ever produced so great an affect. AT the fist rep
resentatiOn the poor Desdemona was SO horror.
stricken at the terrible expression of the Moor that
she sprang from he bed and aed, s~hrieking with
fright.
'In spite of his stony nature, Aldridgo can
adapt himself tie those scenes which require calm,
ness and snbdued passion. In Shy lock, to see
him trembling with fear and indignat on before
the tribunal which is endeayoring to force Chris,
.ianity upon him makes one of those Impressions
which are never efaced. The severest critics find
tut one fault with him that, when speaking to
characters at the back Of the stage, he has the
bad habit of turning his back to the public. The
director demonstrated v it'll him about this, but il
was of no avail"

non, did the thought ever cross your mind that on
that night, when the thermometer was below zero,
and a piercing wind ranged every bill and sought
its way to the very heart of the lone traveller and
roared around your window, that women thinly
clad, rery tbinly clad, were all through the night
bracing themselves against that biting air, stopping
ever ond anon in the shelter Of some bush or fence
and thus wearing the night away, with their eyes
fixed upon that one star Of the North that shines
even for the despised fugitive2 Few thought OF
those who, homeless wanderers, braved the pelt
ings of the pittiless storm for the sake of that lii
erty which so many praise and so few appreciate.
One Of the women is barefoot In a treacher.
Gus slough hole the poor remnants that protected
her feet were lost, and through the long night,
marking the ground with her blood, she still
pressed on, the hope Of freedom in ary cline
doubtless sustaining her, and so at length she
comes, they all come, to a city where the lights
burn along the streets, but all its thoroughfares
are silent. One Of the men limps YEARLY along
on a sprained ANGLE the pour woman has her feet
so frozen that she moves with infinite pain toward
some place where there may be rest aid fire and
food. The other three are nipped with frost, but
their poor clothes have kept them from perishing.
and lie who hears the young ravens when they cry
will not forsake them.
You who think that the slave law, the great
'6uality" should be here enforced all you who
think yourselves bound not to shelter, or feed, or
assist these suffering creatures, see if you NAV not
ind in your hearts one thrcb in sympathy with
such misery.
The law Of God finds those who arc obed,ent to
its behests. A building is found whose doors omen
to the distressed ones. Food, shelter, FIRE, clothes
are there. A physician may probably 10 found
who will use his skill upon the frozen feet, which
are now torn, swollen and bleeding. They are
well provided for. Day after day passes and still
the hand Of kindness supplies them. The masters
are after Thorn they are in fact in a city not a
mile away. seeking the aid of swift runners and
law officers to ferret out their cattle" but none of
the argus-eyed ones succeed in finding them. The
fugitives once more depart for still Other States and
another country, but now under safer and more
comfortable circumstances. They will doubtless
reach a land where the law does not make it sinful
to help them.
The month is not yet gone in which all this suf.
fering and heroism was given to purchase freedom
in the cold land of Canada. The city still stands
where the frozen woman was cared for, and yet we
we're all Ignorant Of the fact, and will go to an.
cient history to read of suferings for liberty, and
lament that the days Of heroism have passed away
with the years beyond the food,

Funeral sermon by Brigham

preached in the Tabernacle at the funeral
Of his sister, commencing and closing as

but be is not here; and we, the four bro-
theirs who are present, have designed to
say what is TO be said, and to perform the
funeral ceremonies of our sister, in this re-
spect. 1t would crafty me to spend an
hour or two to express in part the numer-

The EARTH ONE VAST CEMETERY
Scientific writers assert that the number
of persons who have existed since the be-
ginning of time amounts TO 36,627 ,S43,-
275,o75,s45. The figures, when divided
by s,O95,O0o, 1.-THE number Of square
leagues of land on the globe,) leave IL,
32o,6S0,762 square miles of land on the
globe, which being divided as before, give
l34,T22,976 persons to each square mile.
Let us now reduce miles TO square roods,
and the number will be 1852, ,173,6OO;
which, being divided as before, viii! give
1,2S5, Inhabitants to, each square rood /;
which being reduced to feet, will give about
five persons to each square foot of terra
frma. Thus it will be perceived that our
earth is one vast cemetery-l,2S3 human
beings lie buried in each square rood,
scarcely sufficient for ten graves. Each
grave must contain 1913 persons. Thus it
is easily seen that the whole surface
of the globe has been dug over 1913 times
to bury its dead. y

State.almost unanimously appear to con,
