Janauschek.

The most complete dramatic performance of
the season was that given last evening at the
Opera House. The play was Mary Stuart, with
Madame Janauschek in the title role, and she
was supported by q com pany that for uniform
excellence has seldom been surpassed. The
tragic career of the unfortunate queen of Scots
was the theme of the playa career that needs
no dramatic establishment to render it tragic.
The regal mien of Janauschek as she first ap-
ton of the audience, while her admirable
reading of her lines inspired the
heartiest enthusiasm. While it cannot be
claimed that the articulation of the
artistic is above criticism, her appreciation of
the character is certainly all that could be
asked. Her every look and act is indicative of
the fullest appreciation of the character, as we'll
as Of the interpretation the dramatist thought
to give 1t. She has an admirable faculty of
conveying to an audience the intensity of an
emotion-love, hate, or distrust-by simple
facial expression, and in none of the scenes was
she more effective than in those where words
were few and all depended upon the emotions
expressed in actions. In the third
act she was especially effective in
when, from being suppliant she was trans
formed by the intensity of her passion into an
accuser, and fairly carried the audience away
by the terrible earnestness of her invective.
Her acting was studied, but not SO much SO as
to divest it of its emotional passionateness
While in certain sense it was mechanical, it
was in the highest sense natural and artistic.
This enchanting though melancholy historical
drama was never before presented to a st. Pail
audience in such an effective manner SO far as
the principal role was concerned.
Madame Janauschek's support was exception
ally good. Mr.. Edwin F. Thorne, as Sir Edward
Mortimer, was excellent. He displayed consid-
cradle of the fire that characterizes his brother
Charles in some of his best presentations, and
in his facial expression reminded one strongly
of that excellent actor. Miss Isabel Waldron
made good Elizabeth. The male charac-
tiers throughout were well taken.
Tonight Mother and Son will be presented
with full and strong cast. It cannot fail to
attract full house.

COOKING.

Just now, in Paris, you will see the art of
great cooking in perfection with the least
fuel. In England and America there is an
absolute and unnecessary waste of fuel as
well as viands by the employment of huge
fires. England is more wasteful by reason
of being more prejudiced than America in
this matter. In one day in England cook
will consume more fuel and produce less
good dinners than q French cook will in a
month of superb cooking! Count Rumford
laid down practical rules by which dinner
for one Thousand persons could be excel
lently well cooked and served at cost of
ten cents Now this process is improved
upon, and a dinner for fifteen hundred per-
sons can be well cooked at fuel expense
of five cents! Not by gas-that is wasteful
expense--but by the carbonated refuse of
the gas-house, known as coke. This coke
is placed in peculiarly constructed stove,,
which permits none Of the fumes to pass
into any other place than the closed Chin
ney, The coke is generated into bril-
liant fire by powerful draft, then toned
down as per the wants of the cook by q me-
chanical damper. At this point all the
odor of the gas has gone, and nothing but q
clear fire. minus smell or dust, is ready.
The fire in the broad top stove does duty
for several dishes at the same time. You
get your dinner hot and well cooked at
cost of less fuel than was ever before
known. The owner of the patent is about

Al WONDERFUL WORM.

There is kind of sponge which grows in
the depth of the Mediterranean sea, and in
its tissues wonderful worm is found
This Syllis, as it is called has blind head,
a long body, and is marked with rings like
other worms; it has number of short legs
sticking out from the rings, and covered
with bristles. The worm buds like plant,
and each bud turns to worm like the par
ent. Hundreds of these buds occur on the
head and on the two legs nearest the neck,
and they speedily grow into long ugly
things, which in their turn produce buds
and new crops of worms. When these
budding young worms are nearly full grown,
the parent appears to be very tired of
their company, and wriggles about and en-.
deavors to move backward SO as to leave it's
attached children behind. Considering
that all these worms produce eggs, which
when Matched become worms, in their turn,
and that every individual produces others
by budding also, there can be no reasonable
doubt that nature has some good reason for
placing q vast number of these creatures on
a certain spot during short time. Prob
ably there are many fish that consume the
majority of these young worms before they
! have been long time separated from their
parent. .f ,

ANECDOTE OF HENRY CLAY.

A correspondent of the Albany IN. Y. Jour-

Henry Clay's visits to that State: "Mr.
Clay went to Kinderhook..to visit Mr. Van
Buren,. The town was filed with people
from the surrounding country, and at a re-
ception they were presented to Mr.. Clay by
Mr.. Van schaick, a prominent lawyer of
the county. Among those who came to
be introduced to Mt.. Clay was very beau
tiful youpgplady. It happened that just at
the moment of presentation her name awk-
wardly slipped from Mr.. Van Schaick's
memory His hesitation naturally embar-
raised the young lady. Mr.. Clay, perceiy-

saying in his. chiyalrous way: "Oh the

THE sAon nEnclfY.

What q singular spot is Benares, the
sacred city ofithe Hindoos. From all parts
of India pious Hindoos come to spend their
last days and die sure of thus obtaining
/, their peculiar form of salvation. All day
long, from the earliest dawn till sunset
|, thousands of people bathe on the steps of
the CHATS, which run along the rivers bank
for nearly two miles, in the sure and certain
hope that by such ablution their sins are
washed clean away.
1t is an extraordinary sight to sit in Q
boat and quietly drift with the stream
alongside the whole length of this great
city, and watch the bathers who fill up the
entire line. Men and women are thus
piously engaged, and the usual plan is to
bring down plain robe which they deposit
on the stone steps, while they descend into
the water in their other robe, and there
perform the necessary amount of ablu-
tions.
While the bathers stand up to their waists
in water, devoutly folding their hands in
prayer, or shedding offerings of leaves into
the running stream from large baskets, the
priests are squatting on the shores by
scores, each under an enormous umbrella
of plated bamboo some ten or twelve feet
in diameter, and each with a continually
increasing heap of small coin presented by
the bathers-for what purpose we do not
know
One of the CHATS is called the burning
CHATS" where are stacked great piles of
wood, and where the boats that you see
coming down the river with enormous
stacks of wood upon them unload their bur-
dens. Here, in the midst of the bathers,
the dead are burnt by their sorrowing
friends The body is brought down lashed
upon small hand-bier. If man it is
wound tightly in white robes, SO that every
part is covered; if woman, the robes are
red.
The body is then plunged ever head in
the stream, and then left lying in ts.e water
half submerged, while the friends build the
funeral pyre. When the pile is half built
the body is laid on, and then more wood
and then the torch is applied, and the
smoke of the burning soon pours forth in
thick, murky yrcolumes. When the wood is
burned, all the parts of the body that are
| left unconsl1rned are thrown into the Gan
ger down which they float till the birds
and fishes finish what the fire leaves un-
done. This cremation goes on daily; and
during one short visit before breakfast we
saw six funeral fires lighted but did not feel
called upon to watch the entire destruction

The. respect paid to courage by the war
like tribes of the Anglo-In Indian border is
strikingly illustrated by an episode of
Napier's famous campaign in scinde. A
detachment had been sent against one of
/ the braNest of the native tribes, almost
every warrior of which bore the proof of
his valor in the green thread tied around
his waist, badge more priced by the chill
men" than the Cross; of the Legion of
Honor by French soldier. In the course
of the skirmishing that ensued, an Eng
lish sergeant and eleven of his men, mis-
taking the order given them, advanced up
a narrow gully, where they suddenly found
themselves confronted by. more than 100
of the enemy. The gallant handful charged
without moments hesitation, and were
slain to man, after killing nearly thirty of
their opponents When the last English
man had fallen, the old chief of the tribe,
one of the most renowned warriors of
Northern India, turned to his men and
said: "How say ye, my sons? were these
Feringhees (Europeans) brave men ?" '"Phe
bravest we have ever met" answered the
mountaineers with one voice. "Then,"
cried the old man, taking the precious
thread from his own wrist and fastening it
to that of the dead sergeant, "bind the
green thread upon them all, and not around
one wrist only, but around both, Unbe-
levers though they be, there are no Drawer
souls in Heaven; and it may be that when
God sees how we have decorated them He
will grudge such heroes to shaitaun (Satan)
and give them place beside his throne"

SIIOK EKS.

Robert Hall is said to have preached his
most eloquent sermons after smoking
pipe in his vestry: the same with DR.. Parr,
who sometimes smoked twenty pipes in one
evening, and ''neyer wrote well except un-
der the inspiration of tobacco" According
to Bishop Kennel, Thomas Hobbies, the
philosopher of Malmesbury, retired to his
study every day after dinner, and had his
candle and ten or twelve pipes of tobacco
laid by him; then, shutting his door, he
fell to smoking, thinking, and writing fol
several hours; and although such an ex-
cesssve smoker, lived to the good old age
of ninety -and two. All knew how the great
Sir Isaac Newton smoked; and how, on one
occasion, in moment of profound abstrac-
ton, he placed the little finger of his lady
love" into the hot bowl of his pipe, in place
of a tobacco-stopper. Thomas Carlyle

Louis Napoleon, and many other eminent
men. Campbell, Byron, Moore, and Lord
Eldon were moderate smokers and fire.

tobacco. Sir Walter Scott was great
smoker; so was Lord Palmerston-and the
use of the weed did not shorten his days

as some men toll after virtue. To say all
that can be said in favor of tobacco would

HALF MARRIED.

johnson township, Knox, county, Md,
was the scene of q funny attempt at a wed
ding recently. In that locality lives Melis-
sa Underwood, the daughter of an honest
and respectable old farmer. Two young
men, one P. H. Donovan, a farmer, the
other, VIM. Ayres, a miller, were paying
court to the fair Melissa. She could not
decide which one to favor, having promised
each one to marry him, but finally being
wooed more ardently by Ayres, she con-
sented to take him if it could be kept Sc
cret from Donovan. Ayers went and
secured a license and the necessary
outfit, and in company with justice
of the peace, proceeded to the Un-
derwood farm. The bridal party were on
the floor, and the squire had nearly finished
the job, when Donovan, to the surprise of
every one, rushed in and declared that the
ceremony should proceed no further.
Donovan grabbed the girl by the waist and
exclaimed in piteous accents:
''Oh, Melissa, don't you consent, for you
promised me first"
Ayres had her around the neck and yelled
in stentorian tones:
go on, squire; we are half married
now. Finish up the job"
The magistrate, under the circumstances,
refused to proceed and Ayres, although
half married, is no better off than he
was before, and Donovan is disconso-
