persouators OF Hamlet: You may talk

tests. Going over the grayey ard of the

what did he?" inquired the iucredulous
Joshua. Why said the clerk. :" he

distinguished scholar as being that of
the greatest man there; but the clerk
pooh-poohed the prcposJerous sugges-
ton, saying: " No such thing: / only
get a palhytwo slillings for that grave. :"
His test OF greatness was purely pro-

ROBSON & CRANE.


On Monday evening Robson & Crane, the
celebrated comedians, will commence three
nights engagement at the Academy of
Music. The opening comedy, "Our
Bachelors" is said to be their best, and
already the sale of seats assures good
house. The play is one well calculated to
show these fun makers at the best possible
advantage, and all who wish to enjoy few
hours of genuine fun should attend.
METROPOLITAN THEATER.
Yesterday evening the season at the Met
ropolitan was brought to close. The at
tendance was excellent and the plays passed
off in an excellent manner. Daring the sea-
son Mr. Murray has furnished the amuse-
ment public with 224 entertainments, and
has produced sixty-seven different pieces.
Of these fifteen received but a single per-
Torrance. The longest run was "Around
the World in Eighty Days. which was
played thirteen times. The next longest
was "Pauvrette," ten times. One week from
Monday Mr.. Murray takes his company on
the road for short season, playing the
great success, "Around the World in Eighty
Days" A movement is on foot to give Mr..
Murray complimentary benefit before he
leaves, and the date will doubtless be Friday

Gen. Heintzelman was born in Pennsyl-

the United States military academy
in 1922, graduating in 1866. His
first conspicuous service was when he
had attained the rank of captain in
the Mexican war, being breveted Major for
gallant and meritorious service in the battle
of Huoamantla. March 5, 1855, he was pro-
NOTED major of the Third infantry,
and at the outbreak of the civil
war he was commissioned colonel
of the Seventh United States Infantry. At
an early period of the late rebellion he as
sumed conspicuous duty, which he discharg-
ed to the satisfaction of all concerned. He
commanded division as Brigadier General
OF volunteers under Mcdowell at the first
battle of Bull Run. He was appointed
Major General of volunteers March 5, 1862,
and was assigned to the command of the
army corps. In the second battle OF Bull
Run he commanded the right

A New Occupation for Women.

With the exception CT the double
bass (violin) and the heavier brass-in-
deed, I am not sure that these excep-
lions are necessary-there is no instru-
ment of the orchestra which woman
cannot play successfully. The extent,
depth, and variety of musical capabiity
among the women of the United States
are continued new sources of astonish-
ment and pleasure to this writer, al
though his pursuits are not specially of
nature to bring them before his atten-
ton. It may be asserted without ex-
travagance that there is no limit to the
possible achievements of our country
women in this behalf, if their efforts be
once turned in the right direction.
This direction is, unquestionably, the
orchestra. All the world has learned
to play the piano. Let our young la
dies-alwavs saving, Of course,
those who have the gift for
the special instrument-leave that
and address themselves to the violin,
the flute, the oboe, the harp, the clar-
ionet, the bassoon, the kettle-drum. It
is more than possible that upon some
of these instruments the superior dain-
tiness of the female tissue might finally
make the woman more successful
player than the man. On the flute, for
instance, certain combination of deli
cacy with fexibility in the lips is alb
solutely necessary to bring fully out
that passionate yet velvety tone herein
before alluded to; and many male play
ers, of all requisite qualifications so far
as manual execution is concerned, will
be forever debarred from attaining it
by reason of their intractable, rough
lips, which will give nothing but cor
respondingly intractable, rough tone.
The same, in less degree, may be said
of the oboe and bassoon. Beside, the
qualities required to make perfect or
chestral player are far more often
found in women than in men; for
these qualities are patience, fervor and
fidelity, combined with dizziness of
hand and quick intuitiveness of soul.
To put the matter in another view,
no one at all acquainted with this sub
ject will undervalue the benefits to fe-
male health to be brought about by the
systematic use of embellishments.
Out of personal knowledge, the writer
pleases himself often with picturing
how many consumptive chests, dismal
shoulders and melancholy spines would
disappear how many rosy cheeks
would blossom; how many erect forms
delight the eyes which mourn over
their drooping-under the stimulus Of
those long, equable and generous in
SEPARATIONS and expirations which the
execution of every neutrality-suspicious.

The Hound.

The hound is most interesting dog.
How solemn and long-visaged he is
how peaceful and well-disposedl He
is the Quaker among dogs. ALI the
viciousness and currishness seems to
have been weeded out of him; he seldom
quarrels, or fights, or plays, like other
dogs. Two strange hounds, meeting
for the first time, behave as civilly to-
ward each other as two men. I know a
hound that has an ancient, wrinkled,
far-away look, that reminds one of the
bust of Homer among the Elgin mar
bles. He looks Like the mountains to-
ward which his heart yearns so much.

could not reach the ticket, even by
standing on his toes, and his comical
efforts made the passengers laugh up

tenance, he brought a step ladder, leaned
it against the big man, climbed up to
the ticket, and then went on as though
nothing had happened.
