mr. Howard and the Drama.

MIR. Bro G. Howard, In letter we
printed yesterday, declares that his comedy
of Saratoga is not an adaptation from the
French. Mr.. Howard is young author of
conspicuous merit who has won fame as
dramatist- We are glad to think he has
kept away from French ways and French
plots in his writings. We are especially glad
because it indicates on the part Of young
writer's desire to work in American mines
and with American ores. It has been
wonder to US that our dramatsts did not see
the immense advantage of home themes for
their plays. American character is as full of
angles and observant points as French or
English character. We have as many scenes
worthy of illustration as in Fra nee
OF England, and we tire of the end
less chateau and wooded grange. In
humor our literature already surpasses
that of any other English writing and English
speaking nation. We send the humor of
Mark Twain, Artemus Ward and Bret Harte
to England, as well as the romances of Cooper,
the poetry of Longfellow, the essays of Emer-
son and the his tories of Motley and Bancroft
Our authors ore read and quoted as household
words Why is it that we have made no such
impression upon English, or even upon Ameri-
can taste with our dramas?
Why is it, also, that America has produced
no really great or even relatively great dra-
matte work? We have had many bright
sprightly, clever things like "Moorcroft"
Saratoga" "Belle Lamar and the "Gilded
Age,' but nothing really great "Trip Van
Winkle" and "Uncle Toms Cabin" have made
profound dramatic impression, and might in
some respects be ran ked among high creations
But they are based upon novels, and their
whole merit is that they are works Of fiction,
not merely dramatic works. In the "Gilded
Age" which is now the current sensation,
the play rests upon one part alone.
This character-Colonel Sellers-is virtually
character part, like Solon Shingle,
and would be almost effective as q recitation.
Beyond this the play has only Indifferent
merit, and its success may be accepted as an
indication of the great desire of the American
people to find something Of their own in
dramatic art. Our dramatists should take
courage from this to attempt something new
and bold. Why should not our dramas be
the work of more than one man? Let Mr..
Hay Mr.. Harte, Mr.. Howard, Mark Twain
and some other of our young men of genius
combine and write play, just as it is said the
wits around the court Of Elizabeth wrote the
plays Of Shakespeare. In this age many minds
are as necessary to compose first class play
as to compose first class newspaper. Mr..
Howard has had SO much success as
dramatist that perhaps he will lead in the
work. Let us see if we can have first class
play. America has succeeded in too many
things to fail in the drama.

A Total Eclipse OF the Moon.

Throughout the United States and over all
this Continent and far out in the Atlantic
Ocean and the Pacific the total eclipse of the
moon, which will take place in the evening of
the Oath and the morning Of the 25th inst, or
in the night between Saturday and Sunday,
will be visible at all points not cut off by
q veil of clouds from the beautiful phenom-
light shadow of the earth to the observer
on Manhattan Island at forty-eight minutes
past eleven P. M. Saturday. She will begin
to melt away in the earths darker or COM
plete shadow at fifty minutes past midnight.
She will be totally eclipsed or melted away
into darkness at four minutes past two A. NJ,
and at ffty-six minutes past three A. NJ, reap
pearing in all her glory, we shall, with favor
ing skies, again see
Meek DAMS crest
Float through the azure air an island Of the blest.
A full description OF the eclipse, with ac-
companying illustrations of its various phases
and brief historical review of eclipses of
the sun and moon from the earliest records Of
these phenomena, we give on another page of
this paper. Of all the celestial wonders of
the passing year, excepting Coggia's comet,
this eclipse to the people of this Continent
will be remembered as the most interesting, for
with fair sky they will have the opportunity
to see, from the beginning to the end, the
passing of the moon through the shadow cast
across her path by the earth. There was
total eclipse of the sun on the 10th of April
last but it was invisible in North America;
there was partial eclipse Of the moon on the
LIST of May, but it was invisible in the United
States; there was an annular eclipse of the
sun on the 10th of this present month that
peculiar eclipse in which the SUMS disk is
wholly obscured by the moons shadow ex-
cept bright ring around the border), but it
was invisible in America. In December
there will be partial eclipse of the sun, in
the transit of the planet venus-that is, if q
small black speck gliding over the face Of tho
sun may be caliedeven partial eclipse; but
it will be visible only in Asia, Australasia,
q part of Africa and some Of the South Sea
islands. This eclipse of Saturday night will
be the first and the last for this year Of
celestial eclipses visible in the United States,
and il may therefore be distinguished here
after as the grea. American eclipse OF the
moon of 1874.
For scientific purposes an eclipse OF the
Amoon is Of little or no value. 1t may, per-
haps. serve through powerful telescopes to
The New York herald., 1874-10-22

bring into bolder relief along the line of the
retreating and returning light over the moon
the hideous volcanic projections and cavities
of her rugged surface; but otherwise it is Of
no scientific value beyond the confirmation so
far of the ascertained clockwork OF our solar
system. Far different in its Importance ta
the world of science will be the approaching
transit of Venus, whereby the true distance Of
our great central luminary from this little
satellite which we inhabit is to be fixed and
established, and whereby the sailor upon the
high seas is to be correctly guided in his
reckonings.
We hope that an unclouded or favoring sky
through Saturday night from the Atlantic to
the Pacific will afford the American people an
inviting occasion for full observation Of a
total eclipse of the moon; but upon this point
they will doubtless, during the day, be en-
lightened, SO far as possible, from our national
clerk of the weather.

General Dix and tho Third Term.
As will be seen elsewhere, General Dix has
declared himself to our reporter upon the
question of the third term. The General an
nounces that he is opposed to the whole
scheme-to the very idea Of third term as
repugnant to our institutions. If any one
will write him letter on the subject he will
make his views known in an emphatic form.
So that if any of our autograph hunting fell
low citizens have fancy for the Governors
manly writing they have only to address him
letter on the third term to receive response.
1t is too late Centennial Dix did not
wait until the rebellion was overland he was
his order to shoot any man On the spot who
ventured to profane the American flag. He
took sides in the beginning, and commended
himself to the patriotism of the country by
the prompt blow he struck at exultant and
aspiring treason. Here for eighteen months
the third term has been stalking over the
land, growing more and more mighty every
day, menacing the peace and liberty Of the
country, and Centennial Dix, like the rest of
the republican leaders, was afraid to speak,
lest he might offend the President. But Ohio
and Indiana spoke, and now the General finds
9 voice.
What q great impression Centennial Dix
would have made had he said eighteen months,
or even six months ago, "Whoever ventures
to haul down the flag of republcanism for
the flag Of Cesarism should be shot on the
spot!" But it is too late-too late I

A TERRIBLE STORM IN ENGLAND swept over
the northern section of that country and along
its seacoast yesterday, involving the destruc-
ton Of q great amount Of property and of
many lives, it is feared, from the losses re-
ported. An October tempest on this side
the Atlantic may be the next development
from this atmospheric disturbance on the
other side 1t is the season of the year for q
wide range of storms in all these latitudes.

LOUISIANA AFFAIRS continue in an inexplic-
ably mixed up condition but as every day in
which extreme measures are postponed is
day gained for negotiation between the con-

will be persevered in until full and satisfac-
tory compromise is reached, or at least until
the meeting of Congress.
