this is done we can speak of its merits.

stadrInr for the stage.

The Spirit of the Times hss the fol.
lowing report Of an interview with Miss
Emile Leicester, said to be the most
reliable and eminent teacher of the art
Of acting in New York" y:
How do you begin to teach your pu-
pilsT"
"At the bottom Of the ladder. They
must learn to walk. The stage walk
differs from the street amble. | take
my pupils to a real stage, that of the
Lyceum, and make them practice on the
inclined plane, which is very difficult for
. beginner to tread. dislike affectation
or the least unnaturalness. But acting
is an art, and its greatest beauty is to be
easy and natural, and yet artistic. You
cannot know too much to be an artist in
any art. Your costume is a matter of
profound study and consideration. Il
must be accurate, picturesque and ap.
propriate, and the result Of as much re-
search and Of as much reflection as the
costuming OF o painters model for a
great picture. Originality must be pro.
tected by the teacher. Ny pupils are
allowed to have a good deal their own
way, because | am afraid Of rendering
then. conventional and affected. l am
only DO glad TO see them do something
graceful Of their " accord. | reason
and make them understand what | mean
by dint Of reasoning skilfully with them
IN the part they are about to play and
the piece
do you believe in what is usually
called elocutionT'
Certainly not. Il kills genius and
breeds gross a~ffectation. There is no
elocution worthy of the name but that
which is produced by study, which comes
from the heart chsstened by the reason.
Perish, and forever, all pedantry Of pro-
R%uuciation, all = rolling. all stiltedness,
and above all, hard breathing and artif.
cial emotion"
Who do you think to be our best &C.
tresses2'
"Native2'
Yea"
CLARA Morris and Augusta Dargon
have the most genius. Miss Charlotte
Thompson, Rose Etynge, and several
others have much talent, and my excel
lent pupil, Miss Pomeroy, has proved
she possesses some ability, for she has
become very popular. But sll our actors
and actresses, without exception, lack
fundamental training, and subsequent
study and art industry. | want my pu.
pills to be always visiting art galleries,
looking at pictures aud statues, and
reading we'll selected books, histories,
criticisms and reviews. / want them to
be artistic, and not persist in being am
bilious gossips who make of the stage a
means for the display of ridiculous cos.
tumes.'
you are, then, an enemy to dress2"
Not at all. Bat for mercy sake, do
not make all yeur art consist in q aounce
and a furbelow. If you act a kitchen
maids part, dress like one. Does a re-
ally great painter dress up q working
Wench like a princess, or a princess OF
austere virtue like a cocotte2 Mrs. Gil.
bert, Of the Union Square Theater, late
Of the Fifth Avenue, knows how to dress

pirate c~ostuming. No real artist will
overdress."

Can the state be sued?

Nashville American. 18th.
Some Of our exchanges are discussing
the power of the citizen to sue the State,
with reference to the coupon part of the

quite generally enough to demand an
answer, IF the coupons Of the Ten
nessee bonds were receivable for taxes,
would not the Federal courts have the
power to make the people pay2" The
query would suggest a very grave ques,
ton, it the auswe we're not so easy. Il
there we're even danger OF such an exercise

an open question, nothing could compen
safe the State for mourning such a dau.
ger. The ninth amendment to the con,
stitution, passed at the instance Of the
State Of Georgia, is conclusive. Georgis
refused to submit to such Jurisdiction
and rightly insisted that a sovereign
State could not be sued. To set all
doubts at rest, this amendment wa.
passed:
The judicial power of the United
States shall not be construed to extend
to any suit in law or equity commenced
or prosecuted against one Of the United
States by citizens OF another State. or BY
