METROPOLITAN THEATEE.-One of the
most chaste, polished, and in every way
complete dramatic performances seen in
this city for years, was that given last even
ing by Miss Charlotte Thompson, c. g.
Craig and the excellent support afforded
by a wcll-trained company. Jane Eyre
was the play, and it was given in a manner
to leave the very least possible room for
suggestions of improvement Miss ThOmp-
sons grace, ease, naturalneSS, and depth Of
feeling, and the personal magnetism of a
charming presence st once won the audi
cncc She was not Miss Thompson, but
the Jane Eyre Of the text, the ideal Of
the author OF the romance There was no
posing or phrasiug or clocutiOnary efforts
for effect. She dealt with the situation as
il it were real, evidently profoundly con-
sciOUS thai thC highest achievement OF art Is
attainable by the closest approach to nature.
Mr. Craig, Mr. WoOderson, Mr.. Doyle
and Mr. Yerance were very nearly the
equals of Miss Thompson in their fidelity
to the roles intrustcd to them. The sup
port Afforded by Misses Seymour and
Adams was thoroughly good, while Miss
/ Watson was the ideal uld-timc English
housekeepcr-a very nearly perfect rcaliZa
ton of the character a 1t runs through
English text The company received such
cordial and earnest manifestations of ap-
proval rs audiences but rarely bestow To-
night the attractive play of " Nell Gwynnc.'
That it viii be excellcntly presented is Il
certainty.
TIyoLI.-The Ward company played
Arrah Ma Posue' again last night to Il
good house, and will repeat the perform
ance this evening The play is quite as
faithfully given as the capacities of the
stage permit.

at present is the opinion of all, and when
the sprinklers dump all the water in one
place, making mud puddle, or on Ia cross

ii is time that the thing should be looked
after and regulated. Several alleys in the
city are not sprinklcd once week, when

festival of Hanuckah, which began on
Monday, December "a. The feast is one
of The oldest in the Hebrew church 1t is
commonly known as the Feast of Dedica-
ton. 1t began over twenty centuries ago,
when Aniochus, king of Syria, sold the
Israe)ites into slavery Matthias, one of
the Hebrews, rebelled and with his people
fed to the mountains, where they observed
their religious customs. They had one
cruise of oil which furnished them with
the light used in their services for eight
days, The soldiers of Antiochus pursued
Matthias, but were defeated, and in time
Matthias and his people returned to Jeru-
salem and rededicated the temple This
festival is also known as the Feast of
Light, and lights are kept burning in
Hebrew households during eight days.

THE CANAL ROUTE.
Sensible Talk From Genese0an in
Regard to the Proposed HenHe-
pin Canal.

GENEsEo Dec. 24-Editor ARGUS: The
canal between lake Michigan, and the Up
per Mississippi river from Green Bay to
the mouth of the Illinois river You are
right in saving this is a matter OF interest
to the people of Rock Island 1t is mat
ter of very great interest to all the north
west. Now that there is some prospect
of getting congress to construct the Hen
nepiu canal all the elements OF opposition
are quietly at work TO defeat this great
measure. Heretofore they have laughed
at the idea, and looked on with contempt
Since the tide has turned aud the people
are educated 10 know their great interest
in having this new water route to the lake,
and are determined on having the Henne-
| pin canal, all the elements of opposition
are actively at work to defeat the meas
ure. Little private interests, local jealous,
les together with the great iron bound cor
porations, are now quietly at work in every
conceivable way possible to create preJu-
dice against this magnificent proposition
to complete an all water route from New
York to the upper Mississippi. You are
correct in saying this is of interest to Rock
Island and vicinity 1t is of vast import
ance to the entire northwest. This inter
est extends to the eastern states and cannot
possibly do any wrong cheapening trans
portation from the upper Mississippi via
the lakes to the Atlantic and through the
most populous portion and vastly greater
business interests of Our country. must OF
necessity create influence for good to all
sections of our common country.
| By reference to the latest reports of the
| tonnage east and west to and from the
northwest, you will very readily discover
that the Hennepin canal, when ready for
business. will pay its cost annually, by
competition of freight charges.
| Another danger now threatens the cana
interest among its friends. A feeling OF
security in success; and that all has been
done that can be done.
Now is the time for active, determined
and iudcious work The friends of the
Hennepin canal, of the Improvement of
the Illinois river and the Illinois and Mich
igan canal should now redouble thei1
efforts The friends of the measure should
swarm in Washington and take that city
by storm if no other strategy will avail
Every possible conceivable influence
should now be brought to bear for sue
sess. Yours truly, JAS. nj. ALLEN.
