IRVING, TERRY AND ARNOLD.
The Actor and Actress in Charles the
First-How Arnold Looked, and
What He Said.

New York Special.
Mr, Irving, as Matthias is violator of
nearly every known law of grace and oratory-
AS Charles the First he is as Jealous and
rigid a supporter The first is as Wild rude,
weird and unreal picture as Dore could
draw; the second is as sweet. as delicate and
full OF grace as it is possible to conceive,
His dignity is true his nobility that OF in
heritance and not of requirement, and
his pathos goes easily and without effort
to the heart His voice, that most cruel
emptiness for which nature is to blame, is
often made doubly disagreeable by rhyth-
mical and discordaut method of delivery,
for which he himself deserves the highest
censure. l cannot accept Mr.. Irving's mo-
notonous informing of his lines in the first act
as artistic. or anything but hopelessy bad.
1t produces no other effect than wild de-
sire to scramble out OF sound OF it. Yet that
same voice, au hour later, in the camp
scence, where it reproaches Murray for his
Judas-like treachery, is as musical as lutte,
and used with most judicious skill; and in
the scene of parting with his wife, its true
| heart tone and perfect pathos make tears IT.
resistible
Miss Ellen Terry was welcomed with en-
thusiasm not second to that accorded Mr..
Irving. Miss Terry at first sight is pictur-
esQue, but not beautiful; but her face Is mar
velously fascinating, and you soon lose sight
of its Irregularities. 1t is a face lighted by in
telligence and full of the sweetest poetry OF
womanly nature, In expression it runs the
entire gamut. Angered. scornful queen,
tender mother, earnest friend or wife, rap
tured with her beloved's kiss, or heart broken
at parting, she is equal to the demand She
has great tragic power, and she woos as de-
! liciously as did Nelson. She won immedi-
ate recognition, and the quadruple recall

THOMAS SCOTT II member of the first Con-
gress, was probably the first person TO apply the
word "contraband" TO slaves. In a speech, de-
gress over slavery he said: "If these
wretched Africans are to be considered as prop
erty, as some gentlemen would have it, and con-
sr1uently as subjects of trade and commerce.
they and their masters so far lose the benefit OF
their personality that Congress may at pleasure
declare them contraband goods"

One of Mr.. Buffers New Methods.

Boston Special to New York Tribune.
The Butler managers have printed and are
circulating among the Swedes in this State
q pamphlet in the Scandinavian language,
having for its object the arraying of that
people against the "aristocracy" of Massa-
'chusetts. 1t tells long story of an old
sailor Eklund, who was an inmate of the
Tewksbury almshouse. and a portion of
whose skin it declares was tanned. More
over it tries to give the impression that the
skin must have been cut from him while
living. as certain tattooed designs still show.
Following this is the horrible wood-cut taken
from Governor Buffers illustrated pamphlet.
The Journal says: This infamous PAM
phet has been prepared by the Butler man
ayers to circulate among a people who can
read IN their own language, but who cannot
understand English. It's object is to gain a
few votes, but its influence upon many of the
Swedish people will not end with election
day. They will regard with suspicion the
people with whom they have employment,
and will even regard them as monsters who
have no regard for those who come from
abroad to make homes in this country. The
Butler managers are guilty of great many
disgraoeful performances during this cam
paign; but for downright wickedness, they
have done nothing so repulsive and infamous
