position that.old melo-dramatic posturing and
exciting horror ought not to be revived.
Such walk for example. as Mr.. Irving's, is
unnatural and ungraceful. We have been

walk like nature on the stage, and here comes

O'DONNELL'S DEFENSE.

LONDON, Nov. The Times, discussing
the proposal to allow American counsel to
defend O'DOnnelI, says: 'To give audience
to foreign counsel is a novelty in England,
and no ground is shown for making an ex-
ception in this case"
General Pryor says he has not applied to
take part in O'Donnelrs defense and does
not propose to make application. He is
aware that the rule excludes any but an
English barrister from the British courts,
and does not imagine it will be relaxed in
his behalf. General Pryor states that O'Don-
nell in already provided with counsel in
whose fidelity and ability his friends have
implicit confidence.
1t is expected that all witnesses for ODon-
nell will reach England before Nov. %, the
day the trial begins.

GREENCAsTLB, Nov THE residences OF
Milton Thomas and Dudley Burke, near
Morton, Putnam county, were burgiarzed
last night between 10 and IL o'clock. Mr.
Thomas was aroused by the click of revolvers,
and on opening his eyes saw three masked
men standing around his bed with their
revoivers covering him. One of the burglars
demanded that he reveal the place where his
money was kept or they would kill him.
Thomas said it was under his pillow, and the
robbers on searching found $13. Not con-
tent with this they commenced a thorough
search of the house and found $500 in gold
in collar-box in a wardrobe. After secur-
ing their booty they departed.
The residence of Mr. Burke was next
visited, presumably BY the same parties, and
he was relieved of $780, This is in the same
vicinity where the Crawford outrage and
robbery occurred a short time since, and the
opinion prevails that there iss an organized
