MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.
MRS. HACKETTs READING.

The promised entertainment for the benefit
Of Mrs Hacket given last night in steinway Hail.
and it received with courteous attention by a
friendly audience of about 100 persons The exploit
could not have resulted in substantial beneft-wbich is
Of course fact to be regretted. But the occasion
doubtless served its coveted purpose in once again in
Producing Mrs Hackett to the NewYork public. This
energetic lady, who aspires to high place upon the
stage possessed OF certain obvious qualifications
those namely OF good stature clear voice. expressive
cOuntenaAce, trustworthy memory, and a cultivated
mind She read last night In an intelligent manner, but
her achievement neither better than would
be possible to nine out OF ten OF all the cultivated ladies
In average society. 1t was notable in her rectals
that her natural tones, which are her best,
were reserved for the stage directions In tho uterance
Of the text her voice was invariably artificial Dscrmi
nation as to character however was perceptble IN the
dramatic scenes which she interpreted; and the cor
reetness OF her mechanism throughout implied aptitude
close study, aud good schooling Mrs Hackett gave the
balcony scene, from Romeo and Juliet" but she
did not evince in this either passion, scnti-
ment poetic feeling. She also gave the
quarrel from "The School for Scandal"
In which her dramatic judgment was more evident
than her dramatic facuty-and an extract from Mac
beth" This lady, II evident, has-like many other
ambitious beginners-mOre knowledge Of dramatic
ton than either power skill to use it. Mrs Hackett
would doubtless prove a useful actress for heavy
parts In a frst-class stock company. The applause
mat IL usual on these somewhat dubious occa-
sions WAS abundahty bestowed upon each OF her
efforts. Mr.. George VandenhOG although his name did
not appear upon the programme, participated in the
terianment, prefacing two reCitas with remarks TO
this effect: "As heard that the widow Of my
old friend. the excellent and famous actor James H.
Aackeit, was TO receive testimonial benefit, was I'M
pehed TO oner my humble services; and, hence, am
mere; ana when reflect how fine actor Mr. Hackett
was ana remember how much pleasure he gave to hosts

from expressing establishment that so

DENT-A LETTER FROM SCOTT LORD
To the EdttOr OF me Tribune.
SIR: In your report to-day OF some views
expressed to OF your reporters. make me say
there such perfection in National tribunal as to
ts exemption from the frauds errors and pas
sons which it Is alleged have affected such tribunals
The word state, not such, was used by me-"
friend having assumed that tho Electoral Commits
sion declared who President, and not Congress a. e.
the Senate and House OF Representatives,, which as
sumcd was the supreme tribunal for that purpose. de-
say that the Electoral Commission Bill expressly
reserved to the "wO Houses the constitutional power
and duty OF declaring who was President
The decision OF the Commission in no manner
affected this right and the Houses" in fact exer
csod their high constitutional privilege. The Electoral
Commission decided that the 1.-TWO Houses" had no
power look behind the returns this ended the con-
trOversy unless the Houses" reversed such deei-
sion, which they refused to do
The questions which originally divided the 1.-TWO
Houses" lost sight Of IN the bill On tag one
hand was claimed hat the counting OF the votes was
the Affirmative act II So both Houses must concur III
the count or the vote must be rejected On the other
hand claimed that the returns of the states made
a prima face case which could be overcome only by
Affirmative action requiring, OF course, the concurrence
of the 1.-TWO Houses" Congress- In adopting the Eiec-
toral Commission Bill' sustained tho latter view It's
decision was undoubtedly correct. Respectfully,
