Sincerity is an opening Of the heart.
We find it in very few people; and that
which we generally see is nothing but
subtle dissimularion to attract the con-
6dence of others La Rochefoucauka.
Mere bashfulness without merit, is
awkward; and merit without modesty,
insolent. But modest merit has double
claim to acceptance, and generally meets
with as many patrons as beholders. =

From the Evening Telegram Of yesterday.l
VIA FRENCH ATLANTIC CABLE TO THE
EVENING TELEGRAM.
PARIS, Dec. I4.-"Pot- Bouile," " Zola's
too famous novel, put into dramatic form
by Nj. Busnach, was given for the first
time last night at the Ambigu.
M. Busnach is to be congratulated on
having managed to extract the most over
spiced features of its naturalism, without
detracting from its excellence as mirror
of the shortcomings ana backslidihgs oil
the Parislan 6on1geoiS, and not over hall
dozen really revolting expresslonfI
remain.
The scenery is good-one very natural
scene, representing dry goods shop,
with silks, satins, laces, ribbons, the
cash desk, clerks and constant arrival
of customers in real Paris cabs, with
spawned horses-very life-iike.
Delannoy's impersonation Of Josser-
and, the honest, ill treated father, is a
masterpiece, and his acting in the last
act. where he falls dead under the shock
of the domestic shipwreck about him,
bears comparison with the best achieve
ments Of pathetic acting given on any
stage, and last night brought tears 10 the
ewes of even the sterner sex.
NJ. B rtal acted very well as tha
lady-killing counter-jumper. VI. Petit,
in the unsavory r0ls Of Troblet, was very
amusing, but at times rasher oyeracts,
Most Of the professional critics went
to tha Ambjgu fully prepared to enjoy "A
tumultuous scene of Kissing and bolster
Gus dsapproval on the part Of the public,
surprising that Of the "Rois en- Exil. =
They were, however, disappointed, as
nothing Of the kind took place.
The play certainly contains severa
strong and thoroughly dramatic situations
and these Delannoy never fails 70 make
the most Of, and he was warmly, and a
times even enthusiastically, received.
pephaps it is pity that, as the It'll,
suggests, the play was not "boild" dowI
little longer, to get rid Of at least on,
of five lorg acts. But on the whole
Zola and Bushnach achieved last night
victory, and the play is sure to have
good run.
This would be a good play for Bou
cicault; or some good American pay
wright could transplant it to New Yor
by putting local color in it--for instance
in the dry goods shop, which might b
any well known New York establishment

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?

WAsHlNGToN, Dec. I5.-Ofiicials at
the War Department say that the criti-
cisms on that department because Of the
failure to recapture Captain II. w. How
gate, are unjust and unwarranted, for the
reason that he is an escaped prisoner
from the civil authorities, and the War
Department is no more responsible for
his being at liberty than it was for his
escape.
