MISS MARIE MYooErH's DEBUr-ft seldom falls
to the lot of any individual mounting the ros-
trum or stage to confront the public for the first
time to have as numerous respectable and intellt-
gent an audience az that which assembled at the
Tabernacle In Jersey City last evening to witness
Miss Marie Mycoeth's debut a reader. This young
lady not only possesses great talent for the career
which she has marked out for herself, but is EVIL
dent In all her movements on the platform that she
Is fired with ambition to pursue and to persevere.
Her readings were "Tne May Queen" Poe's
Craven" "The Bride OF the Greek ISLE" "Beaurful
Snow" and selections from "Mare Stuart' and
"hiawatha." she gave her readings with cool D.
upturned faces that was calculated 10 dispel the
idea that she Is novice. As she is destined to
achieve distinction 1t Will not be amlss to offer o
suggestion or two which she may probably trca-
sure up. Her voice Is masculine, intensely so In all
her imprisoned utterances, even In those
passages which call for full express
sion OF feminine sweetness and tenderness.
This was painfully evident In her recitation from
"Marie stuart" where the falsetto broke out with
an effect that grated on the ear. As usual with be-
ginners her voice lacks 1exiblity, and her delivery
Is accordingly rather monOtonous.

WASHINGTON-GRANT.

From the N. Y. World
Between the first and the last of our long
line of Presidents there are some points of
resemblance, and some of contrast. Both
were generals who had commanded the ma
tional armies in O successful war, and both
were elected to the Presidency in conse-
quence of their military reputation. Neither
had much previous experience in civil affairs,
Washington having served for few months
as a member of the Continental Congress and
presided in the Convention that formed the
Constitution, and Grant having filed for
few months the Office of Secretary of War
under President Johnson. Washington, like
Grant, was no orator, although he could and
did make occasional speeches with great
dignity and propriety; whereas the few half
inch shreds of vapid commonplace uttered by
General Grant in the presence OF audiences
give his friends reason to regret his meagre
and costive deviations from total silence.
These, we believe, are the only points of
resemblance.
The contrasts are so many that full emu
meration would be tedious. As commander
Washington always lacked men and ammu-
milton, and his shoeless army often marched
with bleeding feet over frozen ground and
slept in the open air without tents or
blankets. He accomplished great results
with slender means. He also differed from
Grant in refusing to accept any pay for his
services, either as General or President, be-
yond the reimbursement of his expenses, of
which he kept scrupulous account. He took
no gifts, appointed no relations to Office,
spent no time in junketing excursions, was
no dog g-fancier, and though he had an eye for
! good horses, had none of the tastes of O
! jockey. In composing his Cabinet he Sc
lected the most gifted statesmen, like Jeffer-
son and Hamilton, entertaining no mean
jealousy lest he should be overtopped and
outshone by eminent abilities. Instead of
intriguing for a reelection, he reluctantly
yielded to the wishes of his country and the
urgency of his friends in consenting to take
the Office for a second term.
We hasten over these and pass many other
points of contrast to come to one which more
nearly touches the public welfare and the
perpetuity of our free institutions few
weeks ago, when thessbuds were beginning to
swell on the trees at Mount Vernon, General
Grant vent, on a bright spring day, with q
small retinue of friends, to visit the tomb of
| Washington. Instead of this cheap act of
ostensible homage, prompted as much by his
restless love of amusement and recreation as
by reverence for the memory of a great pa
tTiot, we wish General Grant had bethought
him TO look into the history and try to i'm
bibe the spirit of the first and purest
of our Presidents. There is not much to
be learnt by gazing at sepulehral mason.

GERMAN CITIZENS IN AMERICAN
POLITICS.
From the NJ Y. Times.

from ute M H. Ieteos
Our remarks on the strange anomaly that
so large a portion of the German vote is
secured by the reaetionary party in our prin-
cipal cities, have called forth many responses
from the press of the country. Various
attempts have been made to explain the COM
parative weakness, politically, of our intelli-
gent German-American population, while the
Irish Catholics are so important political
power in the republic. An able German
American correspondent of this journal has
suggested one fact which must have struck
many minds, and which promises great
changes with the German race through
out the world. The- Franco-German
war has created a new power. Ger
many is henceforth the name of a State
and a nation. To traveller, the most strik-
ing and melancholy thing about Germany
has always been the entire want of national
sentiment. Each province and kingdom had
its prejudices and local grounds of pride, but
there was no grand general feeling of coua-
try, or even of race. National sentiment has
