HOOth as 'AtuR Lear
Mr.. Booth played "King Lear" last evening at the
Walnut to a large audience, and earned the cordial
thanks Of every lover OF dramatic art by restoring
shakespeare's text. Leaving poetry aud proprety
out OF the question, the tragedy as Shakespeare
wrote II is much more e1eotive in representation
than Tate's adaptation that IL ia disgraceful the
latter should have kept possession OF the stage so
long. Mr.. Booths impersonation of "King Lear" is
artistic in an eminent degree, and it S based upon
an intellectual and scholarly conception of
the character. Not q point Is missed
from first to last, ana in many OF the scenes Mr.
Booths Interpretation throws a new light upon the
character. As an artistic whole it surpasses the
LEAR" OF MIR. Forrest in many particulars, Mr.
Booths exquisite taste In costume and makeup"
rendering his impersonation much the most pic
turesque OF the two and the most satisfactory the
eye. Where MIR. Forrest, however, is greatest Mr.
Booth is weakest and his performance, very excel
lent IL is lacks the thing necessary TO make 1t
great-inspiratlon. "King Lear" Is a valuable add-
ton TO Mr.. Booths repertoire, and although It is not
his best role 1t is that admirers OF the Shake
spearian drama can witness with m ach pleasure.

General Lafayette.
For The Richmopd Whig,

It was often remarked of General LAFAYETTE.
when be was on his tour through the United
States, in 1924. he possessed, in very extra
ordinary degree, the faculty of recogn izipg at
glance his old comrades in arms, whom he
had not seen for moro than fifty years. He
could call by name as we'll the prlvatcS in the
ranks as the highest officers OF the line.
The following Incident was related to me in
the year 1882, by the late Judge Brooke, of
the Court of Appeals Of this State, who bad
been captain in the war of the Revolution
Whilst Lafayette was in Richmond, a guest
OF Virginia, an obscure individual living in
Person county, n. g., who was known in the
Revolutionary army as Sergeant Hood. who
BELONGED to the company commanded by Cap
tain Brooke, and who, on account of bis sing
ular daring and uniform good conduct, was
pet Of his officers, visited the Capital for the
purpose CT greeting his old commanding gen.
eral.
Judge Brooke said that On walking across
the Capitol Square one morning he met an old
man who erqurca of him if he could direct
him to the quarters OF Gcuera L 4tayette, ad
ding that be had fought under him when be
was youth, and had come cue hundr,d Il and
fifty miles to see him. Before the judge had
time to respond, the stranger said to him
is not this Captaiu Brooke to whom | am
taikipg7'
On receiving an affirmative answer, he said,
You DO not appear to rccoeuz. me; | am
Sergeant Hood, who belonged to your company
during the Revolutionary war. The judge
told me that he was Immediately filled with TIC
most pleasant recollections of the scargent's
many deeds of vaIor performed under his own
inspection, that he gave him cordial grasp,
and went with him to IIaayetc's room.
On entering. and before word was spoken
by any one else, the Marquis, who was in re.
mote part ofthc ROOM. eagerly approached the
strange Old man, and cxciaiming, "Sergcant
Hood, fell on his neck and wept tears OF joy.
He recognized this humble private io an ia
slant, and recounted some of his deeds Of dar
Ing to the astonlshed company.
That he should have recognized any OF his
brother officers, ettcr separation Of more thai,
halt century, during which time they must
have undergone the usual change wrought in
ones appearance hy Oil age, whilst his own
eyes must have grown dim, vas amatter Of
no little surprise, but that he should have
hailed an humble private in the ranks, By name,
excited the astouishuent Of al! who were
present -. ..- .- Vs. -.-.--
The judge remarked that it was one of the
most agreeable and joyful reunions in which be
ever participated. THOMAS p. ATKINSON.

pose has been already formed By the under

Maryland to Texas-We appeal tor aid, '.
The fourth Sunday in November Nov. 27th)
has been selected as the day on which cocc

out the length and breadth Of our Southern
land, This is the only possible way by which
voluntary aud simultaneous Offering can be
made to the memory OF him whom we would
honor in death as we have honored and loved
him in life. With perfect confidence in the
love which his people bore him, and Ia their
zeal to do that which, in honoring him most
will most rebound to their own credit, We Can
have no doubt OF the success of this pan il it
can be brought directly to the notice OF every
clergyman aud congregation IN the South !;
and that this may be accomplished we call uD
on you to assist us. Let the committees which
have been appointed for each State act prompt
ly and with vigor. Let them urge, that on the
fourth Sunday ia November. each member
OF every family should 20 to church witt that
SUN, small or great, which their mcaps will
allow them to dedicate to this sacred object.
To those cereymen and congregations who
object to collecting for such an object 90 the
Sabbath. we would suggest that they should
appoint some suitable day in this month when
meeting of their congregations should be held
and the collection taken up.
Let it be remembered that this monument is
to be raised by the whole South; that Ii Is 10
