Rather curious post office case has just
occurred IN Paris In is . rule in France
to deliver registered letters only to tbs per-
sons 10 whom they are addressed. A pest
man who had such letter for . married
lady would not give 1t to her husband on
demand. That parsonage insisted that, %
1t was from . man known to be rather too
insinsts with bis better half, he could le-
gally claim 1t, and the postman still declin.
Ing to deliver 1t he brought tho matter to Q
crisis by knocking him down and thus Sc
caring the document. The Tribunal decid
cd that the husband was right, be produc-
ed the letter confirming bis suspicious; that
the postofics oficials ought not to lend
themselves to aid adulterons corrrespo nd
snce; must pay damages and costs. and
that q husband has the right to claim bis
wiie's eorrespn ndsnce.

a,uo-t;on,marst OF tsc school Funds
for 1879 and 1872.

The following is Il statement of the third
annnrtionment Of school funds for the pre-
sen, wear and the sixth for last year.
The superintendent in the first column IS
for the wear 1S70-'1l. and gives eight cents
for every person Of school age. The amount
now apiortion ed for that year may be re-
,r,,rdei rs the t.st, and the business of the
districts be wound up accordingly. No doubt
faxes levied for 1870 will be coming in slowly
for months, and perhaps years to come but
in order to avoid leaving the business OF last
wear so long unsettled, the Board of Educa-
tiop has determined to cut the matter short
at this point, and to merge the remaining taxes
of 1870 into the funds OF lSTl-'12. Any ba-
lanccs from this money left uncXpendcd after
the debts Of the year 1901 are paid must
90 into the genera, schoolfun for rcdivision
with the money of the present year. IL the
funds of 1S1C-'11 are not sufficient to pay the
debts of that ye.ir in any school district, the
deficiency may be made up, by authority OF
resolution Of the Board Of Education, out
Of the appropriation to that district for the
wear lS1l-'12. AS directed heretofore, coun-
lies and districts having no unsettled liza
bi,itics for last year are not expected TO draw
their quota from the funds here apportioned
for that year.
The apnoltionmcnt in the second column
is fer the year lSI1-'T2. and gives fifteen
cents for every person of school age. For
this year other apportionmcsts will be made
hereafter.

JANAUscuEK AS MAcBBTu.-81ary Stuart,
Deborah, and Lady Dcdlock, had led the
Richmond public to expect great things of
Fanny Janauschek rs Lady Macbeth, and we
venture to say that not one Of the immense
crowd thronging the Theatre last night
was disappointed. We have never seen
in Richmond an audience more cultivated
or more critical, and certainly we have
never seen one more delighted with a
dramatic performance. Reviewing the
four nights of Janauschek's engagement,
we feel the awe, the elevation which the
royalty of blood, the nobility Of nature in
spire as we hear in tones of imperial passion,
" And am Queen Of England" We shud-
der, and are thrilled by the terrible warning,
can eye for an eye, tooth for tooth, q
heart for a heart" We laugh when we
hear Madamoisele Hortense shrek that Mr..
Buckets words are Lies, lies, lies ~ More
over, our old familiar "Biedt House" las
suffered in its transformation into "Chcsney
Wold," and Esther Summerson, the ten der
est, the sweetest, the most delicately define
atcd, and softly shaded Of all the great
masters lifc-lihc portraits, is unrecognizablc
in Lady Dedlock's rather insignificant maid.
But, rs Lady Macbeth, Janauschek regains
her proper sphere, and most nobly does she
sustain this character, which is generally con-
celed to be one Of the most difficult Of COLI
ecpti0n and execution. Mrs. Siddons, at the
acme Of success in her line, was dissatisfied
with her Lady Macbeth: which disSatisfac-
tiUn WAS founded OH the fact that her figur,,
"divincly tall" her features regally naughty
and somewhat strongly marked, did not ac-
cord with her ideal OF the character she per-
soniticd. which i'll Imagination she had draped
in the guiSc Of 4 fair and, until disturbed
by ambition, most womanly woman.
With the doye-eyed softncss and the
melting witchely, who so irrcsistibly lead cap
tive the heart Of man, who yet beneath that
winning exterior bore Il latent ambition, re-
qiiring only The prophecy Of the weird sis
tcrs to rouse it into desperate action. Janau-
schcll has as nearly realized this ideal as is
possible. We cannot but rejoice to learn
that after so many years the dream Of one Of
the most .justly-distinguiShed women the
world has cvclsknown, Mrs. Siddons, has be-
comca reality III ,!aaauschek's Lady Macbeth.
To-nicht-tllc occasion Of JanauscheE's ben
