John Ruskin on Modern PantOmime.
Mr.. JOHN RUsKIN, whose opinions on art
matters have attracted more attention than
the writings Of any other modern critic, has
published a letter on the pantomime, in which
he speaks of the philosophy Of being amused,
and condemns those who believe all time
spent in pleasure to be time wasted. Feeling
desire to pass an evening pleasantly, he
visited Covent Garden Theatre, and was there
regaled with one of those pantomimes which
have inundated America, and taken the place
of the good old harmless, laughable play of
other days. He thus gives his experience of
modern play and of popular appreciation: -
THE pantomime was AH Ba6a and The Forty
IhieUeS. The forty thieves were girls The
forty thieves had forty companions who were
! girls. The forty thieves and their forty COM
! panions were in some way mixed up with
| about four hundred and forty fairies, who were
| girls. There was oxford and Cambridge
| boat race, and the Oxford and Cambridge men
| with a forest in which the flowers were girls
| and n chandelier, in which the lamps were
| girls, and a great rainbow was all OF girls
| "Mingled anonymously with these seraphic
! and, as far my boyish experience extends,
| novel elements of pantomime, there were yet
| some OF its old and fast expiring elements.
| And there was a little actress, Of whom have
! chiefly to speak, who played eNquisitely the
| llLLle part she niltl 10 play. III was Jne nome
scene, in which Ali BaOas' wife, on washing
| day, is called upon by butcher baker, and
mtlkman, with unpaid bills. and in the extre-
nifty Of her distress hears her husbands knock
at the door, and opens it for him to drive in
| his donkey laden with gold. The children,
! who have been beaten instead Of getting break
| fast, presently share in the TapJures of their
| father and mother, and the little lady spoke
of-eight or nine years old-dances a pas de
! deJlI with the donkey.
"She did it beautifully and simply, as a child
ought 10 dance. She was dressed decently she
| moved decently, she looked and behaved inno-
Gently, and she danced her joyful dance with
perfect grace, spirit, sweetness, and Sef-fOrget-
| fulness; and through all the vast theatre, full
| OF English fathers and mothers and children,
there was not one hand lifted to give her sign of
praise but mine.
Presently after this came on the forty
thieves, who, as told you, were girls, and there
| being no thieving to be presently done, and
| time hanging heavy on their hands, arms, and
| legs, the forty thief girls proceeded to light
! forty cigars.
"Whereupon the British public gave them a
| round OF applause.
"Whereupon 1 fell a-thinking. and saw little
more of the piece, except as an ugly and dis
| turbing dream"

Why only one eye fixed on the star What
does the other eye do? Or was the legislator

The following decidedly energetic sentence
is worthy of place in our paper
"The whole family who practise these Sabbath
excursions, with their parents, is not only with
them on their way to the beer-house, but the
poor-house, the work house, the house of ILL
fame, a divided house, house OF shame,
house of horror, to no house OF their own. and
will soon reach the garret of the DEVILS kitchen,
and in the end take up their final abode in the
house of hell.'"
But we cannot protract our extracts further.
Giving the speech as its own words present
it, we ask our readers if it was any injustice
on our part to characterize it as "remarkable?"
The keynote to the whole performance, how
ever, we think may be found in the following
little paragraph
Are Senators who advocate this bill wiser
and better than three hlndred disciples of Jesus
Christ and John Wesley, 7OW present, and whose
hearts are upon their knees before God that
your souls may arise to the Importance Of this
great question ?"
Can it be that it was to curry favor with the
Methodist Conference, and gain its approba-
tion, that the address was delivered? How
many Methodists does the town and county of
Erie contain?

A Mothers Voice.

Since the prevailing Indian troubles
commenced, an Indian camp was captured.
together with q number of prisoners, in
cluding squaws, and some half dozen white
captiyes, boys aud girls, from fvs TO
twelve years of age Word was sent throuh-
out the country, inviting those who had
lost children to come to the camp aud
identify, if possible, their children, as
none of them could give any account who
their parents were, or where they were
taken from, SO young were they when they
were taken captives by the indians.
Numbers went TO the camp-maBy more
than there were children--and of course
many Of them returned with heavy hearts
at being unable to find their lost ones.
Among the number who went hundreds
of miles to the camp, was mother who
lost two Children boy and a girl, one
three and the other FIVE years old-years
ago. Efforts were made to persuade her
not to go, and so long time had elapsed,
it was certain she could not identify her
children, even if they stood before ber.
But she could not rest; she must 90, and
60 she did, On arriving at the encamp-
ment. she found the captiyes ranged in
line for inspection. She looked at them
frst from distance, her anxious heart
bounded in her bosom. But she did not
see her children; at least she saw nothing
in the group that bore the slightest resem-
blance to her baby boy and girl as they
looked when playing about her door step.
She drew nearer, and peered deep into the
eyes Of each, who only returned her look
with stony gaze yet anxious one-they
too hoping to see something in her that
would tell them she was her mother.
She looked long and steadily at them.
as her heart began to sink aud grow heavy
Ia her bosom. At last with tears aud
sobs. she withdrew, and when some PAGES
of she stopped and turned about quickly,
as, apparently, thought had occurred to
her. Drying her eyes, she broke forth in

to her children as lullaby. Scarce "a
line had been uttered when two of the

The mother went home perfectly satisfied
she had found her lohg-lost children.

Christmas Day is regarded throughout
the Christian world as the important day
OF the year, and whether the birth Of
Christ occurred on the twenty-ffth day OF
December, or few days earlier or later,
isa matter Of no great moment. The sig
ni6cance Of setting apart day consists in
the fact that all Christians. by general
consent, accept q specified time for the
celebration of this event.
In pagan Rome there was yearly cell
, ebration called the Saturnalia, or Festival
of Saturn, which was marked by the prev
alence Of universal license and merry
making. The slaves we're then permitted
10 enjoy period Of freedom in speech
and behavior; every one feasied and re
joiced work and business were entirely
suspended; houses were decorated with
laurels and eyergroene; presents were
made by parents and friends, and all sorts
cf games aud amusements were INDUCED
in by the citizensls In the early ages Of
Christianity, its ministers frequently ex-
perienced difficulty in inducing the con.
yerts to refrain from indulging In the
popular amnsemen,s which were so largely
participated in by their pagan neighbors.
At last convinced, partly by the ineilicacy
Of denunoiations, and partly iDfuenced
by the idea that the spirit Of Christianity
might thereby be advanced, the Church
endeayored to amalgamate, as IL were, the
old aud new religions, and sought, by
transierriog the heathen ceremonies 60
the solemnities Of the Christian festivals,
to make them subseryient to the cause Of
religious piety. Engrafted thus on the
Roman Saturnalia, Christmas festivities
received in England further changes and
notifications by having superadded to
them FIRST, the Druidical rites and super
stitions, and then. after the arrival Of the
Saxops, the various ceremonies practiced
by the ancient Germans. The result has
been the strange medley Of Christian and
pagan rites which contribute to make up
the festivities Of the modern Christmas.
Thus ceremonies, rites, and symbols, once
full OF meaning TO pagans, have been
transferred without their meaning TO
Christians, and have come to have an en-
tirely new aud different Specification
This, at least, is true; they have come to
mean Joy at the birth Of the Saviour, JOY
in view Of his love for mankind, JOY in
burying animosities and reviving friend
ship among men. and last, but not least,
in opening peculiar JOY to millions Of
little folks who are not old enough to un-
derstand the mysteries Of mythology or
the intricacies Of theology.
On the evening of the twenty fourth of
December, or Christmas Eve, the Christ
mas holiday may be said to commence.

mas Eve in the olden time in verse, as
