JOHN R~RouGHAnI.
The Venerable Actor Dying in
New Work.


John Brougham, the author and
actor, is reported dying in New York.
His loss Of $4,000 by the failure of
Duncan & Sherman, fastened his
death:
John Brougham was born in Ire
land, on the 9th of May, 1910. He
first attained fame as an actor about
the year 1910, when he played at the
Convent Garden theater, London,
under the Management of Vestris.
About this time he also turned his at
tention to dramatic authorship, and
produced in conjunction with Dion
Boucicault, London Assurance"
The part of Dazzle, so successfully
performed by Charles Matthews, was
altogether the composition Of Broug-
ham. He came to this country in
1850, and appeared in Wallack's COM
pany. At this time he wrote several
good comedies, among which were
Files in a Web and playing with
Fire." He continued with Wallack
for some time, until he opened a thea
ter Of his own, which he called
"Brougham's Lyceum." This venture
proved a failure, and Brougham re-
turnedt to London, where he appearedin
the Lyceum theater, under the man
agement of Charles Fechter. While
there he wrote "The Dukes Motto"
which had a run of a year. In 1864
he once more came to this country,
and became a star, appearing in his
own burlesques, "Pocahontas'' and
Columbus" the former being the
best burlesque ever written in the
English language. Subsequently he
wrote a number of sensational plays,
such as '"Che Red Light" and 1.-THE
Lottery Of Life" In 1863 the late
James Fisk became interested in
Brougham, and built the old Fifth
venue theater, now the Madison
square, for his especial use, Broughan,
nevertheless, proved a failure for the
second time as a manager, and re-
turned to starring. In 1876 he joined
Days company, then playing at the
present Fifth avenue theater. He re-
NAMED with DAILY until 1878, when he
again joined Wallack's. Two years ago
he was given abenefit at the Academy
of Music, which netted $4,000. This
sum was put into a life policy, which
paid him 81 a day. This income,
however, ceases with his death. Mr..
Brougham was twice married, his first
wife being Miss Robertson. His Sec
ond wife was a Miss Annetta Hodges,
also an actress, who died in this city
six years ago.

THE butter dealers OF this city have
ceased their warfare upon butterine,
or imitation butter made from the
suet fat of beef under a process that
renders it a close imitation to the gen.
uiue article. The dealers made a
strong and persistent fight against the
invention from the time it first APP
peared several years ago, but having
found it useless, nearly every mar of
them now trade to a greater or less
extent in the tallowy commodity. The

How the Prince Imperial Died.

A short time since the details of the trip of
 Ex- empress Eugenie to Zululand were given
 to the world Now we have the description
 of the death of the Prince Imperial, from | General Wood the English escort of this Ex-
 empress to Zululand-collected from the
 narratives of several Zulus, (and lit seems he
 had better luck in meeting the savages than | some of the more noted generals of Her Maj
 esty.) Perhaps the most bitter enemies of the Companies will be kind enough to give that
 unfortunate youth credit of the desperation
 and coolness of hero, which he sought to
 earn as stepping stone to the hearts of his I countrymen. In the words of the savages he fought Hike tiger at bay" and met | death, when it became inevitable defending
 himself against several of his foe with the
 sense of a hero. No doubt he commanded | more admiration from the savages than has | any of the enemy that had invaded Zululand,
 at least it would seem so, and it is as noble
 an .epitaph as the more eloquent adulation that will be engraved on his monument. So
 much is tribute to the dead prince that Is worthy, put at the same Ilulo COmSS 1llo hO"o
 of the decided opposition of the remembering
 Englishmen, to the setting up of monument
 to the unfortunate Prince Imperial, in West
 Minister Abbey, and Victoria ordering It to be admitted into St. Georges chapel at Wind sor This may seem kind in the 6rlush

 other of husband, son, and royalty. Grief n,au come hard to this relict of usurpation and splendor. True, she may miss the court of France and the revels of fashionable roy alty she may even find comfort in spending all night on the spot in Zululand where this youth so bravely fell, and for the first time in her life of fashion, have truly mourned-we will kindly think of her as such-but the fact will creep in our minds, that with him died

TIE MIDSUMMER SoRIBNER August number) opens with remarkable frontispiece engrav- ing by Cole, from the famous picture of Savonarla, by Fra Bartolommeo. This DOT trait accompanies "The Plain Story of Savonarolas Life," written by the English wife of the Italian Professor Villari. The work by the latter on the great Florentine preacher, patriot and martyr is now considered the standard biography, and it would be difficult to find in English more succinct and correct sketch of the life of the great Italian than
 that now offered by Madam Villari. The pa per has illustrations of the tragic life and death of Savonarola, by Mir. VanSchaick, the American artist living in Florence. Another brief summary of a large subj joct is Richard Henry Dana's ''Sketch of American Diploma oy."
