CHARLES DICKENS.
Mr.. Dickens' Third Reading I'm Boston
"NiChOIRS NiOkleby'' aAd "BOOts at the

Mr.. Dtckens' Third Reading I'm Boston
"NiChOlaS NiCklsby'' and "BOOts at the
Holly Tree Inns
Boston, Mass. Dec. 5.-Mr Dickens gave his
third entertainment this evening, reading por-
tions of nicholas Nickleby" and that high
iantastical scrap of story, Boots at the Holly
Tree Inn" There was the same full and fash
ionaole attendance as on previous nights
fashion here being much milder term, and
meaning far less as regards millinery and
haberdashery, Than In Gotham. 1t is aston
ishiDg TO note. the number of young ladies in
an audience who are compelled t. bridge their
pretty noses with spectacles This is understood
to be consequence of their devotion to lite
rary pursuits.
They cultivate their intelects and acquire
comparative indifference to the splendors of
feminine attire; but it must be admitted that the
spectacles, even with good taste in literature
behind them, are a tame substitute for that
delicious minglng of the magnifcence of silks,
satins, and diamonds that contribute so much
to win mems hearts in the gaYer latitudes.
Those, moreover: who come out to see Dickens
here are especially the weather. citizens with
their wives and daughters, not at all the regular
patrons OF the cheap and pitiiul theatrical
amusements
Nicklebyn which recounts the hero's sojourn at
DothebOys Hall, including the personalities OF
Squeers, Mrs. Squeers, Miss SqueeIs, and Smlke
and the Yorkshire Lover. 6queers is revolt.
ing and offensive character, very family lighted
by some touches of grim humor, but not sutti-
Ciently so to make him an agreeable person to
meet, so that In this case the impersonation was
If anything too real; so also was the delineation
of smike. The wonderful loyalty of the artist
to his subject made the picture painful, and the
perception of the actors skill was lost in the
wounded sympathles of his audience. Though
less pleasing than some others, this reading
affords a notable instance of the range of the
readers power, running minute by minute from
the affected simplicity OF the lispng Miss Squeers
to the broad, coarse Outbursts of the bOisterous
Yorkbhireman.
An impression given by the entertainment is
that of most thorough and accurate study.
There are but few actors on the stage who
playing but one part, are so earnest or so sue
cessful IN the effort to throw aside their own
pecularities and adopt those ct the character
they peTsonate. Many can do this bat to small
extent, yet few have the fidelity to this art to
make the effort fairly, and show what capabil-
ties In this way they would have. We have
seen but few actors who would do SO much to
present the ideal of one character in an evening
as Mr.. Dickens does to present twenty; and II
actors and actresses would attend his entertain
ments as SO many lessons, his visit might have
an excellent effect on the mimic art in this coun-
try. "Boots at the Holy Tree Inn" was read In
style that made that quaint piece of fancy
quite fairy tale.

THE NEW BRITISH MINISTER TO THE U. S.
Ths Hon. Edward ThOrnton.

A cable despatch informs us of the arrival OF
this gentleman in England from Bio Janeiro,
and all doubt rs now at rest as to his appoint
ment to the post of British Minister at Wash
ington. Mr. Thornton, who is q son of the late
Sir Edward Thornton, commenced his official
career about twenty-five years ago as an attache
Of the British Mission 10 Turin.
In 1916 he was appointed paid attache at
Mexico, and In 1851 Secretary of Legation to
the Republic Of Mexico. From April, 1852 till
October, 1853, ne was secretary TO the late Sir
Charles Hotham's special mission TO the River
Plate. In May, 1854, he received the appoint
ment OF Chdrge dAfdfTes, and Consul General
OF the Republic of New Grenada, but did not
proceed 10 BOgota; and In September ofthe same
year ne was transferred to the Oriental Repub.
lie OF Uruguay. He flled that post for Ave
years, at the end of which period he was ap-
tine Republic.
On the 9th of July. 1865. he was sent on a
special mission TO the Emperor OF Brazil, and
on the 10th OF August following was appointed
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plen,poten-
tiary TO the Emperor OF Brazil, from which post
he has just been recalled TO succeed the late Sir
Frederick Bruce as head of the British Embassy
in the United States. 1t will thus be seen that
twenty-five years OF Mr.. ThOrDton's official
career have been spent on this continent In
different diplomatic capacities. In February,
1863 he was made Companion of the Honora-
pie Order of the Bath, the distinction being con-
fefred upon him as o mark of his Sovereign's
approval Of the ability and fidelity with which
he had discharged the duties OF the several
offices he had successively filed In his country's
service.
Mr.. Thornton bears Portuguese title of no
bility-Count of Cassilhas--to which he sue
was conferred by King John II OF Portugal for
three lives, his own being one, and the Others
