Opera House, on next Thursday evening,
bids fair to be the richest dramatic treat OF

his first appearance in this city, and besides
the support Of his able dramatic company,
has secured for the performance the distin-
guished tragedian, j. Booth Roberts, who
will appear as Iago, one of his most
famous roles. The Othello of Mr.. NJ. Don-
ough is masterpiece OF acting and cannot
to-day be excelled upon the stage.

COMMITTED TO THE DEEP.

We hear the solemn sentence, :" Earth to earth
Ring DER our dead
And fancy since creations mournful birth
No words e'er said
Have brought more bitter woe to hearts half broken
Given clearer voice to sorrow yet unspoken,
Or been TO suffering souls a Eurer token
That all Of hope is fed.
But yet sadder, drearier phrase than this
Sounds o'er some graves
Those that no loving mourner bends TO kiss,
So deep the waves
Have drawn the loved one to their wild protection
Within no earthly bed Of mans selection,
To wait alone the trump of resurrection
That wakes the seas deep caves.
To wait alone No friend may follow him
To that sad place,
That vast abode where phantoms wild and grim
Meet face to face.
Lo all around there breathes Of desOlation;
No lowly cross there whispers resignation,
No crown there tells Of Christs sweet compensation
And pardoning grace.
To wait alone The dreary waters close,
And they will keep
Their secret we'll; the All-seeing only knows
Where he doth sleep;
His only requiem is the seas pulsation
A soul has passed beyond Hfe's sad probation
All that remains of Gods divine creation
Committed to the deep.

Dress and Fashion Notes.

The old Tuscan straw braids are re-
vived.
Open, lace-ike straws are coming into
vogue.
Only the plainest script letters are al
lowed on visiting cards.
A mixture of black and white laces is
now much used ON ball dresses.
Round hats are worn only for shop
ping, travelling, and demi toilet.
The novelty in ladies' summer gloves
will be white lace mits that reach to the
elbow.
Wool stuffs to match the coldr of the
camePs hair goods, are preferred to silk
for skirts.
The empress, modified Normandy
shape, is the bonnet most worn by mid
dle-aged and elderly ladies.
Perfume is not used in profusion, but
the mode is for a lady to select some
particular scent and always use it.
The new American percales rival in
the beauty of their designs and colors
the imported productions for spring
wear.
Small shawls to match the color of
the dress, when the latter is of plain
cashmere, will be the favorite spring
wrap.
Only the upper part of the sleeve is
shirred in the lately received style. The
lower part is plain and fits the arm
tightly.
A pretty fashion common among New
York ladies, is the wearing of bunch
of violets at the crossing of their bonnet
strings.
Visiting cards for unmarried ladies
should invariably have the prefix Miss
with the name, whether the given name
is used or not.
New black silk sacques are partly of
brocade and partly of plain silk, and are
trimmed with galloon, lace fringe and
ribbon bows.
The most exquisite Torchon lace che
mise yokes and sleeves, all in one piece,
are shown to choice customers in some
of our best lace-importing houses.
Artificial violets are sold in Paris to
great extent. They resemble the nat
ural ones, and have the same perfume.
They are made of Chinese silk, dyed.
A miniature gilt bird cage serves for a
combination inkstand and letter-rack.
On either side of the cage are ink cups,
while the letters are to be slipped be-
tween the wires.
Knots in black velvet with two stand
ing loops, and one dropping with two
ends, finished with knot across, are
now sold in sets to complete muslin or
silk toilettes.
Blue will be the leading color in
spring silks. Lophore, new style of
greenish blue, is seen among the impor-
tations for early spring wear. Tur-
quoise blue is also very fashionable.

PETROLEUM AS A LUBRICANT FOR
TURNING TooLs.-Considerable COM
ment has appeared of late in foreign
mechanical journals relative to the use
of petroleum as a means of facilitating
the action of turning tools in operating
upon very hard alloys. A writer in Les
Mo1des states that mixture of seven
parts zinc, four copper, and one tin, re-
sisted all tools even when the latter
were tempered to extreme hardness. As
soon, however, as the cutting edges
we're moistened with petroleum, the al
10y Immediately yielded and was turned
without difficulty. 1t is also stated that,
by using a mixture of petroleum and
turpentine, steel annealed to straw yel-
low can likewise be turned.

Several incidents which occurred
during General Ignatieff's visit to Eng
land are not likely to increase kindly
feeling between the two governments.
For instance, when the Queen received
Madame Ingnatieff-a beautiful lady
Her Majesty suffered her visitor, who
entered leaning on the arm of Lord
Derby, to remain standing, while she
herself was seated; and after three min
utes of chillingly formal conversation,
dismissed the Russian lady with wave
of her hand.

Secretary Sherman says that he never
suffered more pain in his life than he
did in the recent removal of employees,
many of whom are helpless, poor and
needy. His predecessor had testified
and told him that the force must be
reduced, and when he entered the office
he appointed three of the most trusted
officers of the department to make an
examination, and to select those
who are not needed or were least eff
cient in the service. This was done.
He held the list for weeks, and handed
it over to Governor Mccormick, by
whom it was carefully examined and
held until delay was inexcusable.
There was no other way but to reduce
the force to barely sufficient number
to do the work.

A gentleman has just died in Paris
who owes most of his celebrity to the
quaint manner in which he managed to
disembarrass himself of his creditoas.
No sooner did a dun present himself
than he was ushered into room hung
around with variety Of mirrors, some
convex, Others concave, etc. In one
the unfortunate creditor beheld himself
with head as fiat as founder, in an
other his features were nearly as sharp
as a knife, in third he had several
heads, and in fourth he was upside
down. Here he had the broad grin of
a clown, and there the long-drawn WIS.,
abe of an undertaken. On one side of
the room he saw himself all head and
no body; on the other side it seemed as
if dwarf had put on the boot Of as
giant. No applicant, however pressing,
was known to resist this chamber of
horrors for more than quarter of an
hour.

The death of Field Marshal Sir John
Fitzgerald, of the British army, at the
age of 81, recalls the frauds which used
to prevail in that organization about
eighty years ago. He was the son of an
Irish NJ. p, who had an interest suf-
ficient to get him nominated an ensign
when he was only years old, and by
the time he was he was a captain on
half pay. 1t was not till seven years
later that he actually joined the army,
and within two years of joining it,when
only II, he was Brevet-Major. He
saw some fighting in Spain, but was
made prisoner by the French, and
afterwards exchanged. He saw very
little active service subsequently, and it
is difficult to understand how he con-
trived to rise step by step until he at
tanned the honor which is usually re-
served only for very distinguished Cen
erals and for members of the royal
family,

There is in Paris vast establishment
the most extensive Of its kind in the
world-where the imitation of pearls,
diamonds and precious stones generally,
is carried on with all the skill which
modern ingenuity renders possible.
The sand, upon which the whole art
depends, is found in the forests of
Fountainbleau. False pearls are lined
with wax and scales of the roach and
dace, which have to be stripped from
the fish while living in order to retain
the peculiar glistening hue. The set
ting is always of real gold and the fash
ion of the newest kind.

A few weeks ago the Gar Alexan-

by that of the Empress brother, Prince
Charles, of Hesse. The Imperial court
is constantly in mourning. The Gar
Alexander married Maria Alexandrow-
ma, Princess of Hesse, in 1941. His
son, the Crown Prince Alexander, mar
ried the Princess Maria Sophia Freder-
