Maud Muller.

The play-bill of "Maud Muller says that
the play was suggested" by Whittier's poem.
There is a similarity of names to be sure; but
the playwright appears to have taken the
suggestion and then acted precisely contrary to
it. In the play Caphetua lifts the beggar maid
to his throne-and the natural result follows,
the only natural thing about the drama. The
Judge is given local habitation and name,
carries Maud as his wife to the aforesaid local
habitation, and is there visited by Mr. and Mrs.
Muller, much to the disgust of the proud and
cold sister. All this makes pretty enough
play but the spectator to enjoy it should forget
that such poem as ''Maud Muller was ever
written, or comfort himself with the thought
that the sameness of title is merely remarka-
BILE coincidence. Having dispossessed himself
of the idea that he is to see Whitter's MAUD
Muller" he can get much pleasure from Mr..
Philip Stoner's four act play having the same
name.
The play is well-coustructed drama, afford
ing chance for series of pretty pictures, of
dramatic effects, and for some very effective
emotional acting. In other hands than that
of Miss Genevieve Rogers the heroine might
fare ILL.,. but Miss Rogers gives characterize
ton remarkable for its consistency and finish
and sustained effect, peculiarly fine in its joy
GUS attributes, and strong in its delineation of
passion. 1t is certainly not the Maud Muller
of Whittier, but it is dramatic creation
remarkable for its originality and strength;
and the young actress who has made it COM
mands unequivocal praise for the strength and
1istinotnacs of her ption and ho
and admirable finish of the portrayal. As
delineated by her Maud Muller is one of the
most pleasing of modern stage representations.
The actress may be roughly described of the
Lolita school, possessing all the archness,
vivacity and natural ways of that popular
favorite, and many Of her tricks and manners;
but she is Eot extensively initiative, ard pre-
sents Characterization quite her own and
thoroughly original.
The play was we'll presented at Fanny
Marsh's Theatre last evening, and its scanic
effects duly emphasized. The husking scene
in the first act and the mountain view at the
close were particularly we'll DONE The COM
pany gave adequate support. Exceptions may
be taken to the costumes, which were shocking
illustrations of a Lecess .rily unsuccessful at
tempt to combine the traditional peasant
costumes of the stage with the rural dress
(which by the way differs but slightly from
the urban dress) of New England. Miss
Williams, who personated CHESTER wore a
gown which is never seen outside the theatre,
aud Mr.. Gossin wore hat which, SO far as age
is concerned, deserves to rank with the judicia
wig of England But the eccentricities o.
costume did not prevent some very good acting
| by both these players.
"Maud Muller" will hold the boards a
Fanny Marsh's Theatre the rest of the week
and those who wish to see a very pretty piece
| of acting will attend.

DIR. ScHENcK's STANDARD REMEDIES.

The standard remedies for all diseases of the lungs
are ScHENCK's PULMoNIo SYRUP, SCHENcK's SEA
WEED TONIC, and ScHENCK's MANDRAKE PILLS.
and, iftaken before the lungs destroyed speedy
cure is effected.
To these three medicines DR.. j. H. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of pulmonary diseases.
The Puimonc Syrup rpens the morbid matter in
the lungs nature throws it off by easy expectora-
ton, for when the phlegm matter is ripe slight
cough will throw it off, the patient has rest and the
lungs begin to heal.
To enable the Pulmonic Syrup 10 do this Schenck'
Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic must
be freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver.
Sclenck's Mandrake Pills act the liver removing
all distractions, relax the gall bladder, the bile
starts freely, and the liver is soon relieved.
Schencks Sea Weed Tonic is gentle stimulant
and alterative the alkali of which it is composed,
mixes with the food and prevents sourng. 1t assists
the digestion by toning up the stomach to healthy
condition, so that the food and the Pulmonic Syrup
will make good blood; then the lungs heal, and the
patient will surely get well if care is taken to pre-
vent fresh cold.
All who wish to consult DR.. Schenck either per-
sonaly or by letter, do so at his principal Office
corner of SIXTH and ARCH SITS, Philadelphia,
every Monday.
Schenck's medicines are sold by all druggists
throughout the country. maleod&w2msn

FREE STREET BAPTIST CHURCH The OPEN
ing meeting OF the series advertised to be held
in this church during the week, was fully
attended last evening The services were cor.
Quoted by Rev. Jas. McWhinnie, the pastor of
the church, and commenced with singing by
the congregation of the hymn II hear thy
welcome voice." followed by reading of the
Scriptures and prayer.
The sermon was based on the 18th chapter of
Luke, 24th verse, "And He said unto them,
strive to enter in at the strait gate, for many
l say unto you viii! seek to enter in and shall
not be able" From this text the3 preacher
presented the following thoughts: This was
Christs solemn answer to one who was specu
lating about the number to be saved. The
exhortaton, "Strive to enter in,' &C., Jesus
never chose words negligently. In this case
He uses word which describes the intense
struggle OF the Roman games. Men must
agonize to enter into His Kingdom. The world,
the flesh and the Devil combine to deny any
such necessity. With these, earnes.ness to
know the will of God is undue excitement
zeal to do it is ''fanaticism." But Christs
precept remains. Men must resolutey break
away from the sirens who entce them to
destruction, and lay hold on eternal life.
Second-The reasons for the command. The
straitness of the gate, repentance. A man
must leave all his sins at its threshold. Re
must lay aside his self trust, his self will
The failure of the many, who are satisfied with
feeble wishes for salvation and half hearted
efforts to secure it. The door is to be shut,
and an entrance refused to those who, working
lnquity, have refused the offered life.
The sermon was listened to with the closest
attention, and at its conclusion the congrega.
ton Joined in singing "Knocking, knocking,
who is there?'
After the sermon prayer meeting of half
an hours duration was held the time being
fully occupied in prayer. exhortation and
singing
Similar services will be held in the same
church this evening at u o'clock.
