The purpose Of the Republicans is tt
overcome the honest Democratic majority
by such frauds as the above, and the stat'

them. This board in 1872 counted out W

afterwards obtained his office through th

ed that Hemenway was chosen at the dy
ing request Of Ferguson, and that he had
been a candidate and had resigned in favor
of Ferguson. The action of the board was
no doubt in accordance with what was con-
sidered. fair and just, but it really looks as
if DIR. Morey was the choice of the people
and should have been chosen. While Mr.,
Eerguson's wishes were, in measure, en-
titled to some weight yet it does not follow
that it was binding on the board to appoint
Hemenway on these grounds, while MOrey
came backed with a petition clearly indi
cutting that the board would best please

RAViValS I'm London.

From the London Letter OF the New York
Herald
AntigOne was brought out at ClVent

on book shelves. Its revival is due en-
tirsIy to Mr.. Charles Wyndham, known
in America as an admirable light COM
edian; known in London as al equally
admirable manager. Three years sgO
Mr. Wyndham had 8 brilliant thought.
He conceived the idea Of making the
Crystal Palace thester as nearly as pos
sible the Thester Frapeais OF London.
The facility Of obtaining all the best
actors and actresses playing in London
and the provinces tempted Mr.. Wynd-
ham to try an experiment which has
been crowned with great success. Re-
member, please, that the Crystal Palace
performances take place in the after
noon; consequently London artists can
act there and return in time for the
night duties. Otherwise such casts IS

have never seen more attentive sudi-
euceg, despite the fact that q certain
portion OF the theater is open free
to ali who have paid their shilling
admission to the palsce. Books Of the
play are bought and read as rfligiOusly
AS though they were prayer-bO0ks. The
page turn simultaneously, and az every
turning you think q small hail storm
has broken out. There is nothing dra-
matte that Mr.. Wyndham has not tried
on this receptive primary school public
Sheridan, Goldsmith, Knowles, robin,
H0lcroit, BuJkstOne, Gilbert, Byron,
Offonbsch, LeeOcq, Shakespeare, and
lastly SophOcles. Beginning last De-
cember with AntiCgOne, its success
was so prOnOunced-Miss Ward appear
| ing as the heroine-that the tragedy was
thrice repeated. Thus encouraged. Mr..
| Wyndhsm determined to essay CE'dj-
pas, finding in Mr.. Hermann Vein
the on artist capable Of interpreting
the title role. Were there an E1glish
version OF SophOcles comparable with
MiltOu's SdnlsOa's AgORiStes, an actor
might take delight In rendering its
stately measure; but Mr.. Bartholomew
is not even an inglorious Milton. To
make his GdipAs human is about as diff
cult as putJing life into q corpse. Mr..
Vein accompanies this feat, being ably
seconded by Miss Ward in "Antigone, ;"
part vastly inferior to that of the trag-
edy bearing the same name, but one
which no other English actress could
fill. Miss Wards repose and statuesque
figure lend themselves to the classic
drama. Mr.. Vein, admirably made up
as the blind, hoary headed king, COM
bines grace with dignity, while his fine
reading makes the poor verse sound bet
ter than it is. The poses OF "CEdipus"
and "AntigOne' deserve the attention Of
both painter and sculptor. The chO-
ruses, rendered by gentlemen amateurs,
were, on the whole, well done. Men,
delssOhn's music to both tragedies should
be sung by the choral unions Of our own
country.
