Laurence Barrett.

Mr.. Lawrence Barrett, the eminent TRACE
dian, is announced for two evenings at the
Opera House this week, on which occasions
he will appear in "Yorick's Love" and
"Richelieu." Mr.. Barrett needs no intro
duction to the people of st. Paul. He has
been here, and he has achieved q proud
prominence among the favorites who are
certain to draw houses that will overflow
the Opera House. The sale of seats yester
day was encouraging. There is every indi-
cation that there will be standing room only
on the nights upon which he will appear.
A valued exchange speaks of him in these
terms:
''He is known to our pnblic as the most con-
scientiuus, studious and scholarly actor that
has ever appeared on our boards. With an
assiduity that never tagged, with a keen intel
ligence that had wings of honorable ambition,
with conscientiousness lightened by iuspira-
ton, Mr.. Barrett has devotedly kept in view
high stand ards. He has not expected to win
wide recognition by chance or favor; he has
kept close to his mind the conviction that
merit alone secures the creditable plaudits of
the people. individuals may honestly differ
as to s.rauk In the dramatic profession, but
of this fact they cannot be Oblivious; all must
agree that he has never held his vocation
cheaply in estimate, that he has always hon.
ored it by lofty ideals. 1t is with acting as
with every other great calling wherein unmea-
sured possibilities lie, and lustrous examples
exist; the leaders, those most foremost in the
ranks, are generally most conscious of
their defects and failures; such we know to be
the case in painting, in preach
ing, in singing. This careful
and painstaking spirit which has
governed Mr.. Barrett extends to the production
of play, the cautious manipulation of access
cries, the discreet testing of its capabilities.
In regard to MIR. Barret's style of acting it ia
almost too familiar for description, yet we fire.
quently love to have our own impressions
stated in another's language. He is emotional
aud intense: his greatness lies in the surcharge
of feeling which denominates his expression.
But this earnestness is controlled and super
vised by high art. Probably no tragedian on
our stage to day has SO much pathos as Bsrrett;
his Zines are usually rendered with rapidity
and fire, yet in quiet scenes the words flow

ENGLISH GRAIN.

LONDON, May 31.-The Mark Lane Express
says: Showers and warm winds the past week
have promoted vegetation wonderfully, and, if
the weather from now to harvest should even
be droughty, it will probably be beneficial to
the wheat crop. Supplies of English wheat
continued small. but trade was not very ami
mated either in Mark Lane or ia the provinces.
Prices were fairly steady, and only receded for
inferior products of wheat. However, large
proportion of offerings in London consists of
imports of foreign, principally American and
Indian, but the total arrivals in London have
been moderate. Owing to the Absence of
speculation, favorable crop prospects,
and the apathy of large milIers, trade
lost the buOyancy which was apparent previous
to the holidays, but the country demand was
sufficiently strong to check any marked down.

the next President of the United States.
The expectation may or may not be realized.
The Indications at present are that the can

The GLOBE gave good and sufficient rea-
sons yesterday for the belief that the inter

sufficient to accomplish its overthrow. The

pert that can be found in the country. They

shall be placed in nomination, and judging
from the manner in which they have gov

A Ton0 Ticket.

Mr.. R. S. Hair, general ticket agent for
the st. Paul & Duluth road, yesterday sold
two long tickets to q Mankato gentleman
who has planned an extensive summer tour,
mostly by water. The tickets, each costing
$93 35, have each % coupons. The route,
emitting part of the changes, is as follows :
st. Paul to Duluth, Duluth to Buffalo, But
falo to Montreal, Montreal by Lake Cham
plain to New York, New York to Philadel-
phia and Washington, Washington to Balti-
more and Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh to Chicago
and Chicago to st. Paul. The gentleman
will thus sail over each of the great lakes,
and down the st. Lawrence, and his journey,
both by boat and rail, will be crowded with
the finest and grsndest scenery of eastern
North America. But those great long tickets
suggested to Hair possibility that the pas
senger might insist upon having porter
supplied to carry them for him.

stic1s to the aggressive Policy.

Otcourse newspaper man must feel favor
able to a railway policy which gives him
something to write about and news to print,
but making all possible discount for that,
the following from the Sioux City Journal
is pretty near par, that is to say correct:
''Next after the result Of the Chicago con-
vention the public in this part of the North
west are anxiously awaiting the outcome of
the meeting of the stockholders of the Chica-
go, Milwaukee & st. Paul road at Milwaukee
June7. The stock of the road has, under the
aggressive management of 8. g. Merrill, been
steadily rising in value during the past year,
until the recent bear movement which has
lowered the quotations on all the leading
railroad stocks. A western railroad that is
not aggressive in these latter days must
soon go to the wall. Surrounded as
the Milwaukee is by other power
full corporations it cannot live
without growing, and its growth must keep
pace with that of the portion of the West of
which it is SO important part. Some of the
Eastern papers seem to think the stockholders
at the coming meeting will be frightened at
the estimates of the costs of the extensions
projected, and will call halt. 1t is to be
hoped that they will do no such thing. Under
an aggressive policy the road has retained the
confidence of capitalists, and it would lose
this if any backward step is taken. The thou
sands of immigrants that are hocking to this
country, a large proportion of whom settle on
the government lands in the West, justify all,
and more than all, the railroad lines that are
being built west of the Mississippi. The other
leading railroads in the West are pushing out
into new territory with renewed energy, and if
the Milwaukee keeps pace with its rivals and
with the country, it must grid up its loins
anew, and go on toward sunset.

ready 410 votes, and if the unit rule is
broken, he Is sure of $50 votes in the con-
vention."
Ex-Gov. Dennison "Then there is no use
of our coming here. We might as we'll 90
home"
Col. Grant: go, no; we want you here to
help make the nomination unanimous"
Ex-Gov. Dennison: 1 find that newspaper
figures are not always reliable. You have to
find the politicians in order to get the
news.
81 am now in favor of breaking the unit
rule in the convention. If the unit rule ia
broken, know that father will get ten dele
gates from California, six or seven from
Michigan, and several from Iowa and other
places"
Elk Gov. Dennison: Then you favor the
breaking of the unit rule.
Col. Grant: Outside of the convention l
would favor the breaking of the unit rule,
but if were delegate would be opposed
to it.
Ex-Gov. Dennison: should think if you
could gain SO many votes you would want
the unit rule broken.
Col. Grant: No, 1 think the States should
vote as a unit.

that you would gain ten votes from Cali

Col. Grant: Because have been told so
by our friends there. | know il is so.

ton would favor it.
Ex-Gov. Dennison That has keanKthe

have battled against since 1885.
Col. Grant: That's all right, but believe
in the unit rule.
Ex-Gov. Dennison: You will support the
nominee of the Chicago convention?
Col. Grant: That depends upon who is
nominated. We might support some of
them, but Blaine 1 know we wouldn't. He
had no business to come into this State and
make the fight he did.
The Tribune representative ventured this
remark to ex-Gov. Dennison: "Will Score
tary Sherman accept the vice presidency on
ticket with General Grsnt?"
Elk Gov. DennisoH: Secretary Sherman
will accept the Presidency or nothing. Mr..
Sherman would not take the vice-presidency

The great violin virtuoso, who will this
evening fill an engagement at the Opera
House, scarcely needs an introduction to the
ST. Paul public on the Sd of May, 1879, the
GLOBE passed it's opinion. On his perform
ance, and that opinion was wholly COMPILE
mentary. Mr.. Remenyi brings with him q
number of artists of well known celebrity,
who are entitled to recognition. Of the per-
formances OF Remenyi the New York Tribune
says:
The Hungarian violinist, Edouard Remenyi,
who made his first appearance ut Steinway
hall, is one of those phenomenal artists who
can be measured by the standard of no other
men. Comparison, in most cases, is but a
pinckbeck criticism, and with such an excep-
tional and original performer as this it is en-
tirely useless. All his work bears the mark of
his own strong character, and in everything
that he does, whether we consider the iDtellec-
tual conception of the piece or the technical
execution of it, the differences which separate
him from other violinists are differences not
so much in the degree of merit as in the kind.
The elegance, precision and neatness of
Remenyi's work is not less notable than its
brilliancy.

CAMERON AND CURTIN.
The Venerable Ec-Senator;s Memory CAM

The Venerable Er-Senator;s Memory Can't
Be Trusted to Make History.
New York Herald.
We are afraid that the venerable Simon
Cameron, good Grant man as he undoubt-
eddy is, cannot be trusted to write the his
tory of this country. His lapse of memory
as to primary facts is against him. Here he
declared positively the other day to one of
the most careful of our correspondents that
he, on great occasion, helped Mr.. Curtin,
of Pennsylvania, to an enormous
slice of the public goose-made him gov
ernor of Pennsylvania, in fact-and through
his son loaned to the said Curtin three
Thousand dollars. We were sorry to hear
that, because we had always fondly regarded
Simon as one of those game old boys who
never let out on q fellow in shabby way, no
matter what the provocation may be; and to
make merit of having helped fellow in
his impecunious circumstances and to blurt
it out before the whole school was not
handsome. Naturally we are rejoiced to
hear that it was not true; pleased to learn
from MIR. Curtin that the Camerons
never loaned him any money, and
we take Mr.. Curtin's denial to be a
demonstration of the fact sustained uncon-
sciously by Cameron. If Cameron had ever
loaned Curtin three thousand dollars he
would not have boosted about it subsequent
lY. Not having loaned it his speech was
free and he could fiirt little with that fair
lady Truth, who, in fact, if only little older
than the Widow Oliver. 1t appears also
from Mr.. Curtin's corrections, which the
reader will find in full elsewhere, that Cam
eron did not help him to the nomination for
Governor - opposed him, on the
contrary, and did all he could
to beat him, and that the nomination
of Curtin and the defeat of Cameron. Or
binary observers will note between this and
the statement of Mr.. Cameron given in the
Herald on Tuesday the broadcast possible is
sue on point of veracity. That, however,
we take to be of exceedingly little conse-
quenence in Pennsylvania. But what we
take to be of great and Unreasonable moment
is the pretence behind Mr.. Curtin's declara-
that there was period in the past history of
this country when Pennsylvania was
not the property of Simon Cameron time
when he could not have done withfthat State
and its offices just what was agreeable to
him. If there is any reason to believe this,
Simon Cameron has given the country Or
roneous views of his relation to the State of
Pennsylvania Aud again we declare he
cannot be trusted to write the history of the
nation; that will have to be put into the
hands of some odd literary feller.'
