MIR. BANDMANN DEFENDS HIS HAMLET.

To THE EDITOR OF THE uERALD:-
The extended and analytical criticisms that have
been made in the HERALD aud other prominent jour-
nails upon my production of Hamlet invite from me
q discussion of the reasons why tho time honored
tragedy has been presented in "new dross" rs
some OF tho critics have described it, to the Ameri
can public. 1 desire to be understood making
this explanation only from an artistic standpoint.
as one would argue old picture any work
that admits of wide difference of opinion.
and not because feel agsreved at any
of the exceptions that havo been taken by the gen.
temen of the press in their comments upon the
play. With this preamble let me briefly orumcrate
some Of the reasons why have appealed to an in
tclligent and critical public for judgment upon
production that has caused not little antagonism
between those who believe themselves familiar with
Shakespeare and who should not be to the
ception of any new light that may be thrown upon
a theme that will be u subject of criticism and the
basis of argument as long rs the momory Of Shake
speare lives.
FirstSException has been taken to the snow scene
in the first act.
The play begins in May and the action is com
prised within ten weeks. Ophca speaks of dasios
and violots in tho fourth act which is day or two
before the last acther funeral. violets aud daisies
do not grow In 80 late climate as Denmark
beyond July. In the third act In answer to Ham
let's reverio, "My father died within these two
hours" Ophea replies, "Nay. 'tis twice two months
my lord" Now. either Hamlets father was mur-
dered In April and the play begins in May. or vioots
aud daisies grow in Denmark in September ana oc-
tober That snow falls In that part OF the world as
late AZ May one will dispute when 1t Is known
that IL has fallen In Scotland as late as Suho.
Against the above theory might DC sau ,hns
tho ghost speaks of having been murdered IN
his orchard and that the glowworm shows 'ne ne

fathers death at two months before the cginning

Ohio Democracy.

The nomination of General Ewing by
the democrats Of Ohio, at their state con-
vention at Columbus, on the 4th, is one OF
the very strongest nominations that could
have possibly been made. The further
fact that there was no coalition with the
national party, whose convention was held
at the same place on the same day, is an
evidence of democratic strength and conf
dence. AS the national party has shown
that the only object of its existence is to
divide the democratic vote, thereby con-
tributing to the success of republican can
didates, a coalition would have insured
democratic defeat, as there would certainly
have been al independent greenback ticket
in the field; and, with such coalition, the
democrats would lose the respect and act
i've support of the great mass of the party
who believe in the constitutional principles
of democracy. The platform very clearly
defines the issue between the democracy
and the republicans, and forces the repub-
licans to defend the use of troops at
the polls, and the system of par
tisan juries, whereby the highest interests
Of justice and free government is imper-
lied. The platform further condemns the
revolutionary and unconstitutional action
of the factious republican minority in con-
gress 10 refusing to pass the appropriations
unless they are permitted to use the
federal troops to control the ballot
boxes 10 the interest of the repub-
lican party; and unless they are
allowed to appoint an army Of partisan poll
workers with power to arrest peaceable
citizens without cause, without process of
law and pen them up like cattle unless
they agree to vote the republican ticket,
and 10 pay them out Of the public treasury.
These issues are alone Of sufficient import.
ance to ensure the election of less popu-
lar man than General Ewing. He GER,
taiDly stands upon a platform that will
call to his support the better element Of
all parties and all men to perpetuato the
principles Of free government, which, il
view Of the position of the republicans il
congress to which they are Internationally
pledged by the Hayes unconstitutional
vetoes, must overshadow all minor ques
lions of finance and local interests. Gen
Ewing is a candidate who will force The
fight and leave nothing undOne to keep hi'
party on the safe ground of public ap
proval and endorsement for the great fgh
in 1880 of which this electioa is only thu

The Mask Failing Off.

shout Wolf aud predict all sorts Of
dire things rs about 10 be done by the
southern democrats. The timid aud short
sighted who cannot. behold objects much
over three feet IN front of them, soon took
the alarm, and the newspaper ghOuls con-
tinued 10 ply their imagiuatiOns with an
avenging cloud of what they call confeder-
ate brlgadiers, cap-a-pie and ready for
bloody reprlsals. The real disturbers of
the public peace, and the real culprits at
that time, were the very men who raised
the cry against the southern democrats
The republicans had made up their minds
to steal the Presidency, and thus commit
the crime which President Dwight sixty
five years ago predicted would some day
be committed, to the irreparabie injury of
liberty and free institutions. President
Dwight, perhaps the longest headed man
New England has produced, iUrsaw inlSl4
the catastrophe which the Hayes republi-
cans would bring about in 1877, and
although he could not foretelI by what
party the deadly blow would be dealt, he
declared that when it should fall the time
would be at hand for the best men in the
land to rally for the defense of the union
and the constitution, for then the peril of
both would be supreme.
The republicans were cunning enough to
see that unless an alarm of some sort was
excited, the villainy and enormity of the
crime which they themselves we're engaged
IN committing would be too clearly reveal
ed to allow of its successful accomplish
ment. They, therefore, shouted them
selves hoarse over the mythical confeder-
ate brigadiers, filled their presses with
lies and lurid appeals to sectional passions,
aud accomplished the theft of the CHIEF
Maglstracy while the vultures were dis
