The idea that Edwin Forrest could
ever have been astonished by the voice
Of any body except himself seems al
most preposterous. but MIR. Wallack
has recorded in the following anecdote
the fact that there were other tre-

that Of the great and tempestuOus
Americans:
"Gustavus Brook WAS an Irishman.

and with great deal Of variety. On

In view OF the large increase 10 the
public debt the last two months, Il is
matter for qualification that President
Harrison has returned to Washington.
The absence Of himself and every caoi-
net officer may not have had bad effect
on government business. but the splain
people, ~ Mr.. Lincoln termed the mas
ses. would be better satisfied II public
officers would remain at their post %
duty and do the work for which they
are paid. The custom OF deserting
Washington two Or three months every
summer is very reprehensible. Ninety
nine out OF every hundred people ae
home have to stay and work and "sweae

our rulers cannot do so, amidst the most
dclightful surroundings. IL difficult %
