was sgnaized by the reentrance Of Mr.. George
Clarke as Jacques; and the dreamlike mood. gentle

this fine comedian were again heartily enjoyed. in a
most natural and touching performance Of difficult
and often msrepresented character.
Miss Ada Rehan, as ROsalind, acted with uncom-
mon power and sustained brlliancy. No represent
atiye Of RosalInd in our time has made the personality
so various in the first act as Miss Rehan makes it
thus distinctly fore,hadowing the free. exubcrant,
dashng mschievous boy of the woodland frolic The
gleefu element in Rosalinds character is strongly
accented in this mpersonation and result is that
the audience is enlivened and never wearled. No
actress since Adelaide Nelson's time has put so
much glee into the forest with orlando The
woodland passages last night rippled along in the
unbroken sunshine Of mirth. The occasion should
be marked as one Of exceptional interest. certainly

The first appearance Of Ernst Possart. the great
German tragedan, in Faust" at Ambergs Theatre
last evening" attracted an audience which filed the

varied powers and he was rewarded with the deepest

If there is one city on the continent which is
regarded sufficient unto herself-at least in
her own eyes-that city is Boston. Yet the hard,
heavy fact remains that Boston is largely in
debted for her distinctive nourishment TO our own
State. Statistics show that Monroe County raises
more beans-we said beans o BOston-than any
other county in the United States, while eight
counties Of Western New-Yorl1 produce more than
one-third of all the beans grown in the country.
Perhaps when she comes 10 reflect upon these
figures il will occur to Boston that mCekness
would become her rather than bumptiousness.
The members of the Italian colony In New

jefferson Daviss funeral, they were not exempt
from the inhiction. The origin of the custom
is-so TO spcak-shrouded in the cohwebs of ira

The old adage IN regard to curses like

TO Mr.. Blaine these days. Mr.. WINDOW,
the successor of Mr.. Fairchild In the Urea
sury Department, has been struggling tor
the past week with the problem OF now ne
could mitigate the evils of Government IN
reference with the money market. 1t has
been suggested TO HIM by Republican bank
ers that one step in that direction might
very properly be the deposit OF the Gov
ernment's current surplus In the national
banks on such terms rs would be entirety
safe for the Government. But Mr.. VIM
dom was in no position TO accept TINS sug-
gestion-not because il was not, 50 far as
II went, n wise one, nor from any fear that
the money would not be safe, nor be-
cause. properly distributed, the money
would not have produced sensible mea-
sure of relief. He was embarrassed solely
bv the fact that in the campaign OF 1888
Mr.. Blaine impudently and falsely charged
favoritism in the pursuance OF ike
policy bv the Treasury under Mr.. Cleve-
land Administration.

has got another since and does not seem to

tracts from his speeches made in October
two wears ago. 1t will be seen that he
stopped at nothing that he thought would
awaken prejudice in the minds of his hear
ers. He accused Mr.. Fairchlld of putting
money in New York banks in preference
TO western banks. when he knew that the
| deposits were made in the order OF appll-
! cation for them, and that. with the securi-
| " required, the deposits were not proiita-

with $50. 900 a year for his political ser.

Tho Jewish Feast of Irumpets.
Iaro1A aAitnyial

The Feast Of Trumpets, which has Just
been celebrated, as described in yester-
DAYS Herald, is crowded with the most
thrilling memories of Hebrew history. 1t
elouueutly proclaims Israels unquencha-
bic hope of future restoration TO more
than their pristine power as a nation after
emerging from the purifying fires OF ages.
This feast of old was celebrated on the
first day of the civil year. which was in the
seventh Jewish month, Tisri, answering TO
our September. The soulstirrlng day was
kept solemn-all servile business suS-
pended and particular sacrifices offered.
Every Jew knows full well the siRnif-
canoe of the trumpet in his sacred oracles.
Not only was its sound the signal for the
display of conquerlng power. as when the
walls Of Jericho fell down, but II was the
signal for gathering the armies and even
the whole nation of Israel together rs
unit, however scattered they might before
have been. The ordinance which has Just
been observed. therefore, points onward,
as by divine presage and promises, to the
time when that scattered people, reunited
under one invincible standard, shall regain
their long lost glory in their own loved
land beneath the very shadow of Zion's
eternal hill.
II thousands of years hence, our Union
surviving, an American celebrating the
fOQtlD Dl July viii phlilptic 'ubuuSlaoiu
should be told that the Declaration of In
dependence was merely myth or legend
be can confidently point TO the unbroken
observance of the national anniversary AS
an undenisble proof that the event thus
brought TO mind did actually happen.
Even so now. by a like irrefragable. ada
mantine cham Of proof. the Israelite can
answer all who challenge the facts upon
which he bases his keeping of the Feast Of
Irumpets.
That mighty "river in the ocean" that
bursts like an army of waters from the
Mexican Gulf INTO tho North Atlantic,
though driven back, divided. and dis
persed by the forces of the hurricane.
when left to itself rehnites and resumes its
majestic sweep, bearing the exuberance of
tropical warmth and fertility to the other
wise frozen regions o. the North. SO the
lsraelitish people, though now scattered
and denationalized, will one day reas-
semble ut the sound OF the anti-typicsl
trumpets 40 unit TO become the glad dis
penser OF blessing to the remotest corners
Of the globe. Many historical events Of
recent years seem to point TO the resliZa-
ton Of this their sublime hope ct no very
distant day.
