MIR. BARNAY,

and last night he appeared IN " Criol Acosta"-

performance will occur to-day and will presenr
"Tbe Orphan of Lowood" Jane EyreH with
Mr.. Barnay as Rochester, In Hdmlet this actor is
for impressive stateliness and rich and
beautiful elocution. His ideal of the character
differs in no respect from that which has CUSTOM
arily been presented upon the stage. He makes
Hamlet the victim of personal grief and mIsfortuns,
aud tho perfectly schemer Tor a revenge which
he has not will enough to accomplish. The madness
is treated as entirely feign6d. OF the bordcrland
condition-between reason and lunacy-and of the
dream-like and drifting temperament of Hamlet
the performance contains no indication. Its
sion of bitter sef-disgust and of sad satirc humor
is, however, particularly strong. The work of an
artist who knows sorrow through the mind and lot
through the heart often vastly impressive, but IL
lacks the last touch that makes perfect artistic

4 rE1pOT TEMPEST.


The forged TELEGRAM sensation in connec-
ton with Senator Hoar's reelection had BRIEF
but noisy existence. 1t was born late on Thurs
day night and was dead by noon on Friday, yet
in the short intervening period it attained
national proportions and made the professional
scoilers at political virtue extremely happy.
They were sure from the outset that the rum0r
of forgery was true, and they nursed the SEN
sation and their own imaginations so skilfully
that bv o o'clock yesterday morning they had
proved the fraud and had Mt. Hoar in such
corner that resignation was his only way oil es-
cape. Then Mr.. Grape emerged to view with
the remark that he had sent Dispatch that
there was no forgery, and the sensation was
dead in twinkling.
Governor Butler and all the sympathizers with
his peculiar political methods have our most re-
soectful commiscratiOn. 1t afforded them mex
prcssibe 10y to believe for few hours that Mr..
IIoar was no better than they were, and 1t must
have been n cruel disappointment to find that
their ubilation was based on misapprehen-
sion. The defenders of the Saratoga forgery,
by which Mr. FOlger was nominated FOR
Governor, were among the rejoicers, and APP
reared to find much solid satisfaction in saying
that this case was as wicked rs theirs had been.
We commend to their thoughtful consideration
the speedy and conclusive manner in which
lhe alleged forger in Mr.. Hears case was
hunted down. 1t was proved in very short
time that no such person existed. II we re-
member rightly, such n conclusion has never
been reached in the Folger case.

The proposition to give this city supply OF
salt water, to be employed in putting out hres
and in cleaning the streets, has been urged
upon the Water Supply Commission. ms Is
an old plan, and one that has never been
favored by persons who are best informed on
the subject. 1t would not pay. A separate
system of pipes would have to be lald at gtea'
expense, and even then the salt water cOuld DC
used for only few purposes, while Oro1oh
would be useful for every purpose Inc
amount poured out yearly III eXtlhguisiiins
fires is not large. 1t does not exceed, accoro-
ing to some estimates, 4O,OOO,OOo gailohs'
A separate system to furnish this amount
would be an extravaganza. Moreover, sait
water thrown on goods in burning bulidlhS
does more damage than fresh water. 1t is also
objected to the use of salt water in cleaning the
streets that it would be unhealthful. In fact,
when we get Croton enough to supply the
needs for which only fresh water will do, we
can afford to use it for all purposes.
