ANTIQUITIES OF Long ISLAND By GIBRiEL PuRSAs Edited
by FRANK MOORE l2no. pp 4'o j. W. boaoh
In the lndefatigable literary housings OF the
editor of this volume, he was fortunate enough to dis
cover the fragments OF old manuscript among the
collections OF dealer in antique books pictures, and
brica-brac in this city. 1t contained series OF de-
sutory notes the early history OF Long Island and
the quaint customs and manners OF its Inhabitants and
appears TO have been put together at ODD times
between the years 1924 and 1888 Mr. Moore has made
few corrections in the dates, and cleared up some
obscurties but other respects the pub
IS he'd as they left by the author. The volume
also includes notices of the town OF Brooklyn by
the same author, repubished from the edition OF 1924,
which has now become that copy Is rarely
met with. photography OF works relating to Long Is
land by Mr.. Henry Onderdonk. jr., is added from q
manuscript presented bv the author to the New-York
Historical Society in 1866. The volume abounds In de-
tails of not little antiquarian interest, illustrative OF
character and history OF the sturdy Old settlers OF
Long Island. They were peculiar generation, those
primeva Dutchmen. from whom has descended so much
OF the " wealth and respectabty" OF the present day
IN Now-York. Their houses lnoie OF simplicity.

into various figures by the broom. Large tables aud

with brass nails along the edge OF the leathern
back and cushioned seat, furnished the parlor gen

Mr.. Barrett's first matinee performance
was largely attended yesterday, and the
old St. Charles Theatre was made to appear
lovely by the presence OF so many ladies'
who came out to see their favorite' actor in
the Dukes Motto" The piece ran smoothly
and was we'll received. The Marble Heart"
was played in the evening. There is nothing
in the character of Raphael to command
the sympathy or respect of an audience
The hero is anything but a hero; he has not
even the grand passion in love; he is q
whining fool, without the ambition to
the character for all it is worth, but
the performance appears a waste of
genius. On the other hand, Foliage is
practical character. Every line set
down for him has pith aud point. The
characters are Mercutio and Romeo, with a
very sick Romeo. l'oldge is exactly in the
line of Mr. Nortons spirited, volatile style
of acting, and he fairly shared the honors
of the evening in playing the part. Miss
Pierson played Marco very acceptably.
Miss Emma Madden had the neat part of
Marie and .he looked and acted it truth
fully. Misses Hattie Vallee and Jennie
Cook went on and stood round and said
something for C'ementine and Marieue,
bellies OF Paris. Tonight Mr.. Barrett will
play James Hare6eH in Wills poetical
drama OF the Man O. Airiie."
At the Varieties Theatre the opera bouffe
troupe will give thanksgiving matinee to.
day, consisting of the performance of LA
Grande Duchesse;" in the evening the opera
will be Nine. L'Archiduc."
Haverly's Minstrels will fill out the week
at the Academy, appearing in a new pro-
gramme, and giving Saturday matinee.
