"HAzRL KIRKE" AT THE GRAND OPERA
HOITsE

"HAZEL KIRKE" AT THE GRAND OPERA
HOUSE.
"Hazel kirke," the great dramatic
success Of New York, was produced for
the first time in Wilmington, last night,
a. the Grand Opera House, before
large and fashionable audience.
The play, on first Impressions does
not seem to be Of such character as TO
warrant the tremendous success il has
received in New York, but withal il is a
smooth and pleasant drama, aud one
which,iD the hands OF good company
such ~ that performing II last evening
cannot fail OF proving amply satisfactory
10 all who witness II. IL Is not as char
acterlstic as "Jane Eyre" "nor as emo
tional as "East Lynne" but ii possesses
mystic vein of attraction that grows and
strengthens as the simpls story OF human
love and passion, pathos and humor,
speed with the most delicious foolish
ness aud folly, IS gradually unfoldei un-
I'll il reaches the height OF dramatic con-
ception, aud finally ends as pleasantly
as q smiling morning 1t May. Gu the
whole, "Haxel kiike," while at first it
may not prove "ail that fancy painted
H." Is likely to become as popular with
tho general public as it las been with
the theatre-goers Of New York tor more
than twslye-mOnth.
The presenting company was all that
could DO wished for being thoroughly
good. With exquisite feeling Miss Ellie
EIlsler depicted poor HdzcPs touching
woes, while the naturally kind heart
but stem, unloading will OF DunstdH
Kirke was ably presented by Mr. Z. w
Couldock. Gustayus Leyick made q
graceful and finished Lord Irarers
while every original point supposed To
be wrapped within the character ol
Pittacus Green was developed by w. J
Furguson. The balance OF the support
was equally good, and the play proceeded
In smooth and perfect manner to tht
end, gaining, as 1t richly deserved, the
frequent aud genuine applause of the
large audience.

For death and birth on the page of eartn
Together must written be; fT
And weep as we do for 81,
We must shout for 81. 1857 "
Toll, toll the bell with parting knell,
And roll the muffled drum, -
As the mOurners sweep in column deep,
With a low and stifled hum.
But jolly peal, till the steeples reel.
Must fling out its music free;
We were gay when 81 was born, 81.
Wen be gayer with 81.
With heavy dread the mighty dead
Wen follow to his grave;
There let him rest In sluInber blest
Where the churchyard grasses wave.
But spirit of mirth DER the gladstone earth
Must revel and riot free

Hurrah, young 82!

Old Father. Time.
BY MATURIN NJ. BALLOu.


Another sheaf from the field of time
Hath the reaper gathered in;
A rare old farmer is he, Ween,
With eternity for his bin!
He swingeth his scythe with burly swath,
For well doth the cd man know
That nothing withstandeth his keen-edged
steel tz7s.5
He moweth the high and the low.
Onward, right onward, his pathway lies,
And he presseth on his way;
For his mission is plain, and he marks it we'll
1t brooketh no delay.
In the spring he smileth with opening flowers,
Watching the soft summers glow;
He bindeth the autumn's ripening grain,
Nor feareth the wintry snow.
A dainty reaper is Old Father Time,
Who oft his age doth renew;
He walks in the sombre twilight hour,
And brushes the morning dew.
For sure in his crop, when the hour hath come,
AS the laws of nature prove;
Eighty one is gone, and the sun hath broke
On this eighteen eighty two!

THIRD EDITION
THE GREAT TRICHINoSIs PLOT.

Sir Edward rhnrnfon conld perhaps
do no less than to sustain Her Britannia
Majesty's remarkable Consul at Phila-
dsiphla. That Jealous ofncial has been
industriously propagating the belief that
.thaupigs and the pork-eaters OF America
are alike writhing in the embrace OF the
tIichinI spiralis, and that the introdac-
tion Of American pork into the Engli
market IS likely TO be followed BY like
epidemic in Great Britain. Sir Edwards
backing of his Consul is not of an en-
thusiastic kind. He confines it to OBJ
serving that "trlchina spiralis exists
among hogs in the United States, aud
that some individuals have died from
eating pork containing that insect"
This Is no doubt the tacl, but 1t is not OF
itself a very tremendous fact. How
much Of fact it is the Secretary OF the
Illinois Board Of Health happily informs
us by mentioning that since 1850 eleven
deaths have occurred from trichinesis
ia that State. Eleven-ffLeenths Of an
lllinoisan have thus fallen an annual
fraction OF victim 20 the Tell destroyer
in question. No doubt an annual trac-
ton considerably larger of the population
of Illinois has been struck by lightning
during the period covered by this inve sLl-
gallon, and nobody, in Europe. or in
America, would be likely to pay large
premium to insure himself against death
by a stroke OF lightning. Moreover, every
person can insure himself against tue
danger OF death from trlchinOs's by the
simple precauton Of abstaimt Z from raw
pork, which will not by most persons be
regarded as an extreme hardship. 1t ap
pears also that during the asst two years
the percentage of death by dis ase among
the hogs oflllinois has been considerably
smaller than for the preceding years
The evident fact is that there never Wa;
more seul,ss ''scare" in the world thar
the attempt to make out that there /:
any appreciable danger to BE- appfehend
ed from the importation If AiaencaI
pork. The attempt is so baseless anC
absurd that il is hard To believe that it il
made in good faith. That il should b,
made at the same lime ia several Euro.
