Mccullough at the Ns,lons, Theatre

Mccullough nt the National Theatre.
Right here we take OCCASION TO say Bravo
for the Washington public! Such an ovation
aS WIS given to the great tragcdiau, John
Mccullough, last night is an assurance that
once more the legitimate drama is asserting
its sway on the histr0nic stage Tho play
selected was one Of Shakcspcare's very best
"Othello" Itgivos perfect pJrtraiturc of the
passions Of man. In this tragedy shakespeare
paints with his inspired pen the loves the
hates. the dccoits, the honesty, the simplicity,
the contidrnc" the Friendships, and, most of
ell, the jCalOusicS Of mankind.
Mccullough ~ the Moor, is at his very best
aud last night he dressed, looked, and acted
the lover, soldier, and monster as never he did
| nclOre. lie seemed determined to receive the
overwhelming ovation with which he was hon
| orrd by giving to his auditors q delicious
dramatic treat, such as they had not enjoyed
since the days of FORREST, Booth Kcan and
Adams. When Mr.. Mccullough first came
upon the stag, accompanied by his lieutenant.
faSsi0 his voice was for the nOnce drowned
by The plaudits OF the multitude of ladies
and gentlemen that had gathered at the
National 10 greet Americas greatest tragcdiau.
As this subsidized the play proceeded, with
here and there alternate applause. The people
became 50 much interested in every action and
movement of each and every one Of the cast
that they rat IN broathlcss delight and wonder.
ment not thinking of appauding, but acting
as IL they wished such performance would new
er cease. Mccullough in his speech TO the Duke
and Senate, detailing his courtship, and how
he won DesdemOsa, was simply perfection. lie
continued On in the snme strain at each and
every turn of the plot and progress of the play
At the scene where he meets his wife
In Cyprus, he was the exquisite young bride.
J groom, all tenderness and affection. When, IN
the same act, he discovers the midnight brawl-
ers and disarnis the oombatants he Ia for all
the world u true soldier, In speech, manner and
bearing As the play goes on he gives t0 the
very life the turn Of mans nature, from eonfid-
Ing love to suspicion, then TO jealousy, and
finally to hate ending In the awful determine
ton 10 finish his troubles with the life of his
wife, whom the devil Idg0 had taught him to
believe was false 10 him and false 10 herself

NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, TUESDAY MORNING.

IL IL wonderful that man can conjuro mp so
much knowledge Of man, even with the
nid oil such nm author, so as to portray his
every passion ~ completely rs did Mccullough
while last night impersonatins the Jealous
Moo.
Miss Eleanor Carey made one Of the most
charming Ecsdemonas that has ever graced the
stage. She reminds us of Miss Anderson who
so often supported Forrest or the elder Booth
in the same character. Miss Carey makes up
magnificent stage appearance; and in the
role she csslycd knew Just what was expected
of her. The sweet, loving, and confiding mis-.
trcss was therc. The unsuspecting, faithful
wife. She loved, and that truly, beyond all
doubt, and the beautiful manner In which she
gave every line and performed every stage
action was equal to any favorable criticism that
may he given. She Is an artist, and the SIM
plieity Of the character she Played seemed 30
natural In the actress that she evidently won
her way completely into the affections OF her
hearers.
vs. cannot say too much for Milnes Levick
as IoCO. Honest Iago was given throughout
the entire play in as complete manner US ever
Edwin Booth gave il. Indeed we thought at
times Mr.. Lcvick had trsnsgrcssed some
what In giving us Booths version of this
Immense pieco Of acting. The spectators
last cvenin proved to him that his hgo was
highly appreciated. Mr.. James as Casio was
an agreeable surprise. He spoke aud acted the
roe most uncxccptionably. His drunken
scene. his night brIw and his "loss of reputa.
ton" were excellent. flanagan. rs he always
dOes, gave BubaRtio in the good old style.
RIderico has been played better, and we are
confident that Mr.. Wavcrlv can improve II II
he puts II little more of the simple comedy in
the part. II is intended to be asimple, foolish
young man, with more money than bniins,
aud this TACT must never be lost sight OF
through the play.
Mr.. Lawr, nee as Montana and Miss Allen as
En,e,ie were well up in their acting and the
delivery OF their lines As q whole, Mr. McCul.
Tough need be proud of his support. We have
never witnessed better performance of
"OthelJ"
This evening we are to have Sir Lytton. Bal.
wers beautiful play of ".lchelieu," with Nr.
Mccullough aS The Cardinal and Miss Carey as
Jufe, with the r'st Of the able company max
ing mp the balance Of the cast. This is one of
the great trLgedian's hest roles, and of course
the house will bc crowded.

A Rl,npIc Oem Ocrnt.

A gentleman In this city has just shown
us certified Transcript from the records ol
the United States Circuit Court for the
Northern District of Georgia This record
shows that on the 22d Of September, 1870, n
law firm in Georgia collcc cd for some
clients in Baltimore the sum of S6Oa40, and
that on the 3lst Of December, 1871, ono
year and three months aftcr it was col.
lcctcd, this law firm paid over TO their
clients 5000, leaving unpaid at that time
including interest ut six per cent, s455.37
From that date until August 10, 1878, this
model firm Of lawyers failed, refused, and
neglected. to pay over any of the moneys
they Ind collected, and the Baltimore firm
brought suit in the United States
Circuit Curt, prsilel over 10y
MORRISON Il. WAITE, Chief Jus.
ticc of tic United States A writ WIS
issued, return ,blc on ;hc first Monday in
September, 1873, and both the defendants
acknowledged service. The crsc went tc
the jury on the l4ih of March, 1877, and the
jury returned verdict for tie plaintiffs
On the SINE day Judgment WIS entered
against the law firm for S4553j principal
and Sl5303 intcrest, with t;ic casts Of thc
suit. Gre oi the defendants came in and
paid onc-half the amount of the Judgment
We have thus seen by the record that
tkcsc Ia Syers collected money for their ell
cnts and applied it TO their own uses in
other words, violated u trust conGtled in
them and were guilty of n crime for which
lawyers Gc always d.sbarrcd when proceed
in"s for that purpose arr taken, They held
and used this mon y for nearly seven years
and then raid over onc-half OF it after tho
ju lrmcnt of u court
The name of the senior member Of this
law crm is HENRY W. HILI.IAaD. who has
been selected by President HAYES as the
most fit and sensclcss man" in this great
Republic TO represent it cs Minister to
Brazil. We are glad to lnow that the
Transcript viii n we have Gcrn will be filed
tomorrow morning with the Senate Com
mittcc on Foreign Relations, and the nation
may he saved the disgrace OF being repre-.
sentcd abroad by such u man.

A Curious Anecdote.

An anecdote illustrative of an animal abandoning it's artificial for it's natural taste, when once it has learned what it is, may be told of tame ichneumon, which kept and fed with milk. One day I brought him small water-ser- pent alive, being desirous to know how far his instinct would carry him against a being with which he was hitherto totally unacquainted.
