AMUSEMENT NOTES.

An exchange alleges that Mary Ander-
son gives such care To the harmony OF
her costume and surroundings that she
will only read magazine whose cover
harmOnizes in color with her dress.
Remenyi saws that it requires q little
lunacy 10 play well on On" violin, and
that hddlers ought 10 be shut up in a
lunatic asylum. But what could we dO
without Remenyi?
II is amusing 10 find the stern critic
OF artistic or literary shortcomings fall
inc into mistakes which an intelligent
school girl might be expect 10 avoid.
DR.. r. A. Won MOschzisker, in the Re-
public. takes Mr.. John Mccullough to
task. because in reciting the "oratiOn"
Oi Brutus Mr. Mccullough was not the
Brutus who, according to Marc Antony,
could "mOve the stones OF Rome 10 rise
and mutiny.' DR.. MOschzisker's mis-
take is not much worse, however, than
that made by those who repeat Marc
Antony's words, a. though spoken in a
sarcastic tone. II Antony had given the
slightest hint OF sarcasm OF the beginning
ofhis Grafton lthc only Grafton in the
plav, for Rrutus makes but a mere plain
statement Of his CaSel, whetherln speak
inc OF the OratOrical force which lac pre-
tends 10 find i'm Brutus, or in the often
repeated words, "And they are honOra-
BILE men," the plebeian crowd would
have torn him in pieces. Asst is, though
he begins all softly, and with praise
only, the rabble will hardly hear him.
Yet we have heard actors OF repute, in
the part Of Antony, repeat the words
"and they are honorable mel" and
"and surely they are honorable men, y
i'm the same tone throughout the ora
ton, losing altogether that gradual
change from unquestiOning confidence,
through hesitation, doubt, suspicion, to
utter scOrn, which gives these words
their pOwer.-N. \. Herald.
