so eager were our theater-going people
to witness "The Two Orphans" rendered
by company Of performers whose fame
as artists had preceded them.
w. J. Cogswell, in the character Of
Chevalier de vandrey, performed his
part with neatness and taste than was
truly commenable. NJ. J. Jordon, IS
Pierre Frouchard, the cripple. gave evil
dence of high order of talent. He Is
certainly and actor of ability. and In the
last scene the audience was fairly carried
away with his captivating delineations.
j. B. Everham and De Marbelle,
were well up in their parts. and may be
classed as actors Of ability. Silas Robin
son, as Picard, valet, deserves particular
mention, and was in great favor with the
audience throughout the piece.
Miss Fannie Matthias, rendered the
character of Louise, the blind girl, faith
fully, and pathetically. Miss Eliza HUI.
son, as Henrietta. proved pleasing
and attractive. Miss Edna Cross
as Mother Frouchard, would bs
hard to equal in that character. Mis-.
Ella Wren, as Countess de Liniers. acted
her part to the life, and besides being q
good actress, is fine looking lady. Tc
say that the Cogswell Troupe Is good
would not fill the measure of its merit.
1t is splendid. and will leave lasting
impression Oh the minds Of the Cairo
public.
1t will present "'The Two Orphans
for the last time Oh Saturday night, an,
those who fail to 60 will miss an intellec
| tlial treat.

Mr. BEEcnER AS A MISSIONARY. A New
York Herald correspondent informe us
that kissing is unknow in China. Civili-
zntion in that country has never been
considered to be MS fully developed rs it
is in the East, and the Chinese are un-
doubtedly ignorant Of much with which
younger nations nre familiar Human
nature, rs Nine. de Stael says, is tho
same everywhere, and there will be
found nothing all over the world but
men, women and children. TO Amcri-
cans kissing seems to be so<pstnral that
we can hardly understand how the
Chinese nre ignorant of the art. Indeed
If we should physiologicnlly enter into
i'm investigation of the subject, the mys-
terry would become more profound. The
intelligent correspondent proposes that,
as the nrt of kissing appears to be en-
tirely unknown to the Chinese, mis-
sionnries should be sent from this conn
try to give them the proper instruction.
He wishes to export the Rev. MIR. Beechcr
as the champion kisscr of the United
States. Pnroxysmal, pnternnl, sisterly,
reconciliatory and inspirational kisses
appear to be as familiar to Mr.. Bcocllcr
M household words. The honorable de-
fendnnt, according to his own account,
has done II grent deal of kissing. He
has kissed Mrs. Tilton, (sisterly,) Mrs.
Moulton, (inspirationally,) Mr.. Moulton,
(experiInentally,) SIr. Oliver Johnson,
(unwillingly,) Sam. Wilkcson, (una-
voidably,) Mr.. Evarts, professionally, }
G1r. Sherman, Indignantly, Bessie
Turner, (fatherly, and Theodore Tilton,
(reconciliatory.) After this extrnordi-
nary experience in osculatory perform
ance, Mr.. Beecher should certainly be
fully qualified to teach the barbarinns
oil that they are ignorant of in the deli
cate art. Brooklyn might probably miss
him, but Pekin would be the gamer. If
he should, after the trial, consent TO go
to China in tho capacity of Plymouth
missionary, he might conjugate the verb
''to kiss" with greater success that he
has done at home. The conjugation II
kiss Tilton, thou kissest Tilton, he
kisses johnson, johnson kisseth us,
Wilkeson kisseth Bowen, Bowen kisseth
Beeoher, might have wider application
in the experience of Oriental climates.
But as Mr.. Beecher has kissed almost
everybody in Brooklyn, it would be q
pity if he should go to the home of the
Brother Of the Sun and Moon and leave
the unkissed Mrs. Morse out of tho
category.

CRED1T.-The why of tits this. a man
writes, 81 want your paper, but am not
willing TO pay in advance for.it. If YOU
are afraid to trust me for year, I am
afraid to trust you. How do know that
you will send ME the paper for year?"
Such conundruns mark the conservatism
of ct least one careful man. There is no
reason why he should trust us with two
lollnrs--perhaps il is best that he should
not. There is no reason why druggist
should ask pay for the medicine no sells
before it operates, or that railroad com
pnny should ask pay for o ticket before
tho ride is finished; or that carpenter
should ask pny for building house till
1T Is worn out and the owner moved
away. 1t costs many thousands of dol
lars to buy n good printing Office, and
make ready for printing newspaper.
Paper, ink, labor, and MI these lituo
accessories to paper cost the money in
advance. We have not the means neces-
snry to furnish So 900 persons each with
newspaper for n year, then to employ
score Of men to collect bills ell over tho
country. unless we charge Mt leat ten dol
lars year for the paper. 1t is better for
$4,000 men to pay each two dollars
quarter in advance, than for us to hnve
S1OO, OOO scattered nll over the country,
two-thlrds of which We cannot collect
man can easily forget to pay what he
owes for the paper. He can move away
and never be found, no matter how
much that publisher may be in need Of
the dollar or two the subscriber may owe.
1t Ii not easy for newspaper to dihap-
per. The editor who has tho earnings
and reputation Of n lifetime invested in
business, and who has built up q news
paper to large circulation, is not apt to
cheat q man out of two dollnrs, more or
less, for ON unexpired newspaper sub
| scription.
Another thing. We should never takc
paper edited by man we could not
trust with the price of the paper. If you
have no more confidence in us and our
business honesty than to be afraid to
trust us, keep your money. We cannot
afford to give credit to everybody, and it
would be unfair to discriminate. For
more than twenty years we have been
printing newspaper, and never yet
have fniled to send the paper each week
to the persons who have pnid for it. It
is not likely TINT we shall commence
| being dishonest now. We cannot, with
out making great change in. our man
ner of conducting business, give q
dribleting credit oil over the country
We are not afraid to trust our CORES
pondent for So, but prefer to have him
read his own pnper than one he hns not
paid for. Ho buys a pound Of tea, an d
partakes thereof day after day till it Is

Getting up in q cold room to make o
fire is like getting up in life. If you
crawl timidly out of bed, 60 on tip-toe
to the stove, and allow the shivers to get
control of you before the kindling starts,
your fire will probably be q failure, and
you will half freeze to death in the ope-
ration. But If you jump out bravely,
hustle around, pull on your clothes,
knock over chair or two, and pitch in
the stove-wood, You will probably be too
warm by the time the fire gets to burn
ing, and have to open window. SO in
life. Attack it timidly, md you will
fail. Grapple with it, hurry up things,
stir around. conquer fortune, and you
will be success.
