THE DUTCH GAP CANAL.
TO The Editor.

The natural Inference from reading your
article on the Dutch Gap canal in this morn
ing's issue is that the famous ditch has not
heretofore been used by navigators, and that
it is now, for the first tme about to be put to
practical use, when the fact Is that nine tenths
of the commerce of Richmond for the last ten
years has passed through tho canal. BY the
combined efforts of the United States govern
ment and the city of Richmond, the ditch dug
by Gen. Butler and which was failure for
his purposes, was widcned and deepened
about 1873, TO admit the passage of vessels
drawing sixteen feet While Butler was
mover able, notwithstanding the herculean
efforts to that end, to make use of this cut off,
the people of Richmond undoubtedly owe to
him to-day the vast benefits they are deriving
from its use, by means of which they are
brought one hour in time nearer to the sea-
board. G..

An Intcrcsti1,E Occasion.
The annual election of officers and direct
ors for tho ensuing year of the Young Moai's
Christian association took place last night Iat
1880 o'clock in their rooms on New York
avenue, near Fourteenth street.
After hearing the reports on members hip
and on branch associations, all of which were
Of decided interest, the president, Mr.. Ames,
appointed the following committee 7npon
nominations Mossrs. Pratt, Baldwin, II ard
ing, Hail, Vaughan, Youngs, Fisher, SIM son, F.,
and Darlington, who retired for consulta ton.
During their absence Miss Lillebiidge
favored the audience with & solo, accom- amy
ing herself upon the piano. The song: was
received with applause.
The following names wero then reported
by the committee and duly elected Fresi-
dent b. H. Warner; first vice president
Charles Lyman second vice president, A. s.
Pratt treasurer, Il. u. Barnum; secretary,
James l.. Ewin; directors for the term ex-
piring in 1856, +. w. Woodruff, f. f. Simp-
son, J. +. johnson, and Mai. Hall; director
for term expiring in 1884, John b. Wight
An interesting account of the work of the
association for the past year was given by Mr..
Brown.
President Ames, on vacating tho chair,
which he has occupied moro than six years.
spoke in a very feeling manner Of the support
which had boon accorded him by tho fra
ternity. The newly elected president, Mr.
Warner, made an excellent speech on accept
ing the presidency
The association is in lourishing condition,
and the new officers are encouraged by tile
fact that they begin their administration with
property owned by the association and n
sound financial backing Those present Last

n debt of $500. After the business had been
transacted the audience adjourned to the

1t is said the Madison Square management
have authorized Bret Harte to dramatize
his story, Tho Luck of Roaring Camp" for
that theater, his previous dramatizations of
the same work having proved unsatisfactory.
1t is strange that the most popular humorists
make the worst comedy makers. Mr.. Harte
says Music and Drama, has failed twice in his
dramatic efforts, while the stories from which
he attempted to build dramas have world
wide celebrity. His " Two Men from Sandy
Bar" dramatized by himself a few years
since, did not interest the people, while his
" Luck of Roaring Camp" which has been
read by capable stage managers, has been de-
clared lily constructed and refused produce
tion. Mark Twain undertook to write u
comedy ("Col. Sellers"), and failed, and it
was not until Raymond and others showed
him its glaring faults, aud had it "doctored"
by an experienced dramatist, that it achieved
anything off, success, and that success was
due in the main to the capital acting of Mr..
Raymond. In any other hands IL might
prove dismal failure an. Quad" the
humorist of the Detroit Free Press wrote q
comedy from his papers upon tho Lime Kiln
Club" which proved as pronounced q failure
as his newspaper writings were successful.
Other comedies and dramas have been written
by well known humOrists, but they have all
becn put aside as worthless. 1t is quito an
easy matter for humorist to sit down at his
desk and grind out squibs that are copied far
and wide 1t is straight work no cimpli-
cations--no stage business to consider no
machinery to introduce; mono of the nitric
acies of stage manipulation to think about !;
no situations and climaXes to ponder over |;
no effective incidents to look after nothing
but the ovolvement Of his joke engrosses his
attention. Bat when he feels that his pres
tige as humorist warrants him in branch
ing out as dramatst, he makes fatal mis-
take. In order to build play, the most
essential requisite is at least partial know
ledge ofthe stage and its workings. This but
few, if any, of our humorists know anything
about and ii is better by far that they stick
TO the avocation that has already brought
them fame and dollars, than to attempt to
seek additional glory through the medium of
the stage.
