HON. SCHUYLER COLFAX'S tSTI-
NATE OF ANNA DICKENSON'S
HAMLET.

The Tribune, noticing that Mr.. Colfax
seemed very rnuch interested in Miss
Dickenson's rendition of Hamlet, asked
him his opinion. He said he had been
most agreeably surprised. From the
comments of the New York theatrical
critics, he had supposed that she had
found it impossible to overcome the diff
culties of sex in playing the part, or to
escape from the tendency towards the
monatone, caused by so many years of
lecturing. But she certainly crossed the
stage back and forth like gentleman
sat down ON sofa like careless young
fellow would, and walked about with
Hamlet's companions as naturally as any
young man before her would have done;
and her voice had certainly as wide a
range in lis infections as any of the Ham
lets he had ever seen. Indeed in those
striking passages in the drama which de-
veloped the most intense feelings, she
had not been exceeded by any of the
great impersonators OF Hamlet in our
own country, and called to his mind her
war appeals, in which her imprisoned
eloquence was SO universally con- eded.
4 uc utleSL lSabuIc III U0T TOUulLloU OI
Hamlet seemed to him the sharp rebuke
of Hamlet to the courtiers, Rosencrantz
and Glldenstern, sent by the King TO
sound hin-his denunciaton of the
Queen-mother, with the contrast between
her two royal husbands-and the obiur-
gation of his former lady-loveJ Ophelia,
''get thee to nunne1y,' etc. He regret
ted her omission of Hamlet's advice to
the players, so often quoted to this day by
the elocutionists, and which was intended
to make their playing before the King
more effective in the revelation as to the
murder and the murderer
Mr.. Colfax said Miss Dickenson's idea
of Hamlet, in regard to whom the most
eminent writers and actors still differ,
and always will, is evidently that he was
lad in the earliest years Of his mar
hood while Booth regards him as of more
matured judgment But, if there could
be a competitive playing of Hamlet by
Booth, Barrett and Miss Dickenson, on
successive nights in any city, he was sure
that in an average American audience,
the latter would be commended for as
many striking excellences in the imper-
sonation of the Danish Prince as either of
the others, even if in some other features
Barrett Or Booth might be regarded IS
superior.-,SouM Bend (Ind.) Tribune

A writer in an English journal points
out some noteworthy lapsi in the revised
New Testament. From more than ], 800
prssages collected for the purpose, he
shows that san half occurs eight and
ga half five times; that "hand'' is pre-
ceded by "an" seven, ''mine' forty-three,
my forty-nine, ,,thine" ninety seven,
and "thy'' forty-three times; that the
word "heart'' is preceded by "an'' three,
"a'' three, "mine'' thirty, 'my" fifty-two,
thine" fifty-two, and "thy eighteen
times. The only word which never va
ries is "an hundred" The relative which"
when referring to persons, has been some
times changed to "who,' sometimes to
.'that," but more generally retained.
There is the same want of uniformity in
the use of'whence" and "thence" in
many passages "from whence and "trom
thence being employed.
