Mrs. Langtry's Rival.

London Cor. New YORK Herald.
The theatrical critics of the Lon
don morning papers appear to have
agreed to slate Miss Calhoun's
Rosalind. The reason why does not
readily appear, unless it be because
she had the audaclty to challenge
comparison with Mrs. Langtry by
undertaking to perform the two parts
in which the erewhile professional
beauty" chose to appear upon the
London stage for the last time prior
to her departure for the States, and,
moreover, at the same theater. Per
haps, however, the reason may be
found in the fact that IAN unknown
American actress" should presume to
come to London and try to teach the
Britisher something about play acting
by essaying one Of the most gracious
and at the same time one Of the most
difficult OF all Shakspeare's heroines.
Be that as it may, not one of the
morning papers had a good word to
say about Miss Calhoun's Rosalind or
OF the performance as a whole, and
yet it was as a whole a most decidedly
better performance han that in which
Mrs. Langtry appeared. 1t was not
by any means what il might have
been; there were many shortcom-
ings and much that could have
been wished otherwise; nevertheless
there were points in it that were de
cidedly enjoyable. One was the fresh.
ness and vivacity which Miss Cal
houn brought to bear upon the i'm
p%ersonation. The performance, like
that Of the Unequal Match" last
week, was undoubtedly given to chal
lenge comparison with Mrs. Langtry,
and was, therefore, perhaps in doubt.
full taste. Mrs. Langtry has a slight
advantage in stature aud in breadth OF
shoulder, and SO figures somewhat
better in "doublet and hose" al
though a witty lady who saw her 10
the Forest of Arden did say that she
reminded her of Ohippendale furni.
cure. She likewise has an advantage
ia that distinction of bearing, that
ar~istocratic carriage, which, whether
it come from birth or breeding, or
from some imperial impulse, is al
ways associated in the mind with the
idea Of princely form" These ad-
vantages, aud they are not small, must
be accorded to Mrs. Langtry. In
some other respects she was inferior
to Miss Calhoun. The scenery was
the same that was used by Mrs.
Langtry, and was fairly effective
Miss Calhoun's forest dress consisted
Of a brown doublet and hat and gray
CATERS, which was exceedingly pretty
aud becoming. The Imperial Theater
was we'll filed, and the audience
manifested frequent and hearty APP
prevail of the actress efforts; and, on
the whole, despite what the London
critics say to the contrary, Miss Cal
houn may take credit to herself for
having given a noteworthy imperson-
alton Of one Of Shakespeare most
charming women.

The Junior Exhibition recently

was made the occasion for issuing a
handbill containing a vulgar travesty
Of the performance. There is nothing
new in attempts to burlesque college
performances. 1t is an old and worn
out expedient, which is falling into
disuse, and the sooner it is abandoned
the better. The burlesque attempted
this year at Berkely, while coarse and
vulgar enough, is noticeable for an
absolute failure of a single witty ex-
preston. The students engaged in
bringing out this travesty are evident
ly in a tender and veally condition.
college wit is usually thin and dreary.
1t is much like ice cream, with the
ice and cream left out, and the
thinnest of skinned milk substituted
The college fe1gling usually tries too
hard to be funny.
