THE TuEATRE.-It would seem impossible
to imagine more faithful conception of the
character of Othello than that presented by
Mr. Davenport last night as "the jealous
Moor" But, though powerful, it was not
up to his standard, as he seemed to labor
under the annoying consciousness of having
a support not equal to the demands of such
a play. Some members Of the company
performed their parts well, but others
Showed an entire want Of appreciation OF
the pats they assumed to represent. To-
night we shall have Hamlet and better cast
of characters. Let the company that at
tempt to support Davenport remember that
without careful study they will surely de-
tract from his success and render themselves
ridiculous.

PUEErc CELsBs ATsoN OF THE RICHMOND ANA.
TEuR LITERARY AssocfArIeN.-0n Monday
night the Richmond Amateur Literary Asso.
ciation celebrated the anniversary Of the
birthday Of George Washington at the rooms
Of the Young Mems Christian Association.
It was the first public entertainment given
by the Association. Kcssnich's band was Ia
attendance, and delighted the large audience
with choice selections OF music. An address
Of welcome was delivered by the President,
Mr.. Theodore A. Johns. The address was
brief and very appropriate.
Mr.. G. &. Moore, the eulogist, was then In
troduced, aud delivered beautiful eulogy
upon the life and character Of Washington.
Next in order was the debatc-yiz.
I" Which has been more beneficial to his
country, the warrior or the statesman -
Argued in the affirmative by Mr. e. NJ.
Hubbard, and in the negative by MIR. AL.
Owens.
Mr, Hubbard argued that the warrior was
merely an instrument in the hands Of the
stai esinsn. that the warrior thought more Of
sel;-ascrandizement than of benetiting the
neopie in general; aud that he wors hlpped
no god hut ambition, aud in countries Where
the wise counsels Of statesmen were not pro-
perly appreciated tyranny and disorder pre-
vailed to an alarming extent; that the true
s.atesmau's mission has always ana VIII ever
| Ike 10 secure liberty aud TO build up his go
rernment upon firm basis.
Mr.. Owens argued that the warrior mas
been of more benefit 10 his country than the
statesman because he adjusts difficulties
which could not otherwise be settled; tnat
| the true patriot was the warrior, who Will
incly endangered his life for the protection
Of the liberties Of his people: that free ana
civilized countries are more indebted 10 the
| warrior than the statesman for their advance
| meut and prosperity. =,
MeSSrs. d. Pulliam, OF Manchester, Nj;
| Elock, D. S. Morrison, George W. Gary, and
DR., A. S. McRae, Of Richmond, were ap-
pointed the committee to decide the question
upon the merits of the arguments advanced.
The committee stood: Affirmative, 2; mega
tive. 3-alter giving to the question mature
dcliberalion.
The declaimer. Mr.. R. S. Ellyson, was next
! introduced. Subject: "Las Casas DiSsuad'
ing from Battle" His voice was we'll modu'
lated. and his gestures very appropriate
Beyond question lie won the laurels OF the
evening.
The oration was then delivered by Mr. f.
Waddy, on the mobility of Labor" dc
painted in bright co colors-the greatness OF those
nations that placed the proper estimate upor
labor, aud proved that labor was the mother
| of all greatuesS-the heart Of nation. AL
were highly pleased, and pronounced 1t
success.
