THE DRAMA.
8HAKF.SrEARE AT DALT'S THEATRE.
Mr. Daly has again rendered a slgual servioo to this
BommnnltT by a suitable, and Indeed, a remarkably
ante production of one of the great plays of Shake
?pe*i*e. " A Midsummer Night's Dream" was brought
t-orward 1**1 night at his theatre, mounted and clothed
In saenery and attire as rich and beautiful as any that
has ever been used to drem a play upon the American
Itage. Viewed as pagesntry alone this prcnontmcni
ls delightful: but lt ls by no means upon pageantry
alone that the rellauco has l*ecn plaoed. Tbo great
company lhat fillod every part of Daly's Theatre, on
this occasion?an assemblage especially notable for
mind, ivilncment, tano. beauty and fashion-saw a
tight the like of which has not been visible since the
storied days of Burton; a thoroughly successful ellon
to Interpret tlie most ethereal, ovauoscout and tn
tangible of comedies, not as a spectacle, not as an
opera, but by the legitimate means of the art of act?
ing. Thone wero, tt Ls obvious, formidable obstacles
In the way of this endeavor. How completely and
how well they have boen surmounted tho reader will
niiderstat.il and truly appreciate only by becoming
also a spectator of the follclton-. and brilliant art of
BUr. Daly** comedian*. The representation, notwith?
standing an occasional weak place In tbo cast, was
entirely competent aud full of Charm.
BaaanOS " A Midsummer Night's Dream" is swathed
In an atmosphere of poetical and grotesque fancy lt
commonly has been shunned by theatrical adventure.
Tbe feeling with respect to lt was?and lt ls a feeling
which still exists-that this play Irs in tlie air and not
upon tho earth , that lt move* with wing* and not with
feet. Yet the moment lt I* examined, without respect
to Ihe adverse presumption of Itu being Impractiosble.
tt ls found to possess itibstanea-i, form, artistic sym
rnetry. and a perfectly distinct practical dramatic
utility. That eminent critical authority, William
Hazlitt, many yean ago dogmatically announced that
Ibo poetry of lida piece alienates lt from the stage;
and this Judgment bas. In tho main, been accepted
as final. It ls a doctrine which wonk! dcprlvo the
theatre of one ot tike noblost influences which lt can
exercise, and lt ls a doctrine that neither reason nor
exjaerieuee will sustain. The delicate ground ls, of
course, tho Fairy Land. Bhalirispeare, first lu many
tldngs. was the first author that ever, la a drama.
Bui-elated tho proceedings of falrlos with those of
human beings This play, ll ls thought, was written
by lum al a time when bis mind was full of sympathy
with his fiinnd and benefactor, 1Kb Earl of Sotith
ampion. a bo was about to be married. Obviously
Ihe poet must havo rejoiced In h's largo and gene.ons,
nnd golden conception of the happiness, of every hind,
that aw.'iited those lavara. In tho days of '- Eliza and
our James" j)(k-Ls did not think lt a virtue to affect
cynicism or pretend to bo ashamed of their natural
emotion*. The mind and heart that aro revealed
through '? A Midsummer Night's Dream" aro all ablaze
wltli passion, and sensuous pleasure, and mirth, and
reaskless fancy ; and yet, behind all this e.xuboranco
of f-elliic tle-re ls th" calm, grave, dorn eyed creative
faculty, th.- dominant deign, the poetic wil o! sha! e
spear*- that vi,,niel fol, self-poisod genius, which, al
oven Ihe topmost heipht of Inspiration, never aban?
dons purpose nor loses control, never falters Into ob
*>Ciirlty nor wanders Into delirium Nothing could be
atore natural or more felicitous than Ihe poet's ascrlp
tlou of a spiritual guardia?ship, typified In Titania
and Oberon, to the fate en I fortune* of the lover*;
Whom lie lovod ; but when ho Introduced sprites and
elves, when ho Imagined this tissue of sweet and merry
Buluiiglemcms. when he made his I airy play, ho did
liol Mull l*t construct a perfectly practical dramatic
plan, and tn crown h<? work with ti," ono wo.-d which
li, Its complete elucidation. He callod !! a Dr-am.
There ts abui,dance of gossamer In the comedy,
abundance of airy plc turo and ethereal imagery, over
Which tho Is ney. whethor of a re.-ulru' or au auditor,
Olav wander far and witto ; but. aller nil. Shakes peate*
Fairy Monarchs an* very human. The same web In
which BS entangles Ihe four loveis ls casi over
"?Oberon" and " Titania." They also are Implicated
In a lovers' i|uarrel. and ou each side the motive ls the
Basts?tha human motive of Jealousy. Even '? I-uck,"
tbo most Lui;,i-l ic pema In the piece. Ls very li ho a
mischievous, but good natured boy; thero ls nothing
of " my delicate Ariel" here. The main requisite,
accordingly, to a suitable performance of this plrcr Is
that the actors concerned In lr should, while ttaatleg
lt as a dream, and not striving to BU?8 I! the literal
copy of sumo preconceived aspect of actual lifo, be
?arnest enough to maintain interest, without bSSamlag
prosy and thereby despoiling Illusion. "Oberon" may?
be like an earthly prince; but we inu-t not be made to
tee!, as we behold him. that he habitually walks In
{'roadway and dino* at Delmonico'!. '* Fuck" may bl
Ilk? a boy, but ho must not, lor tbe spectator, be
actually a boy ; h? must maintain his civisli character.
lt ls a question of personal capacity and of atmos?
phere. Portly, ir may freely bl admitted, ls alienated
from tike stage, and must remain Ba, If wo exisx't thal
lt can bc bioiiglit uj-ion tho scene by the man hy the
man who brings on the chairs. The representation
last night w,is competent and charming because .he
actons Bara lt without tho least Insistence upon Us
plausibility, without ever once seeming to consider, or
to care, a belber what was talking place could or could
not orrin In actual lifo. Moore's phrase might well
bc used ui doscrlbe the general effort of the entire dis?
closure. lt was "fire and wandering.-' Thc scenery,
Involving liberal and deft use of dim woodland vistas
gliding mist, glancing meteors, th" waning moonlight
and the pm plo blush of dawn, entirely harmonised
willi lids drifting, dream like view ond treatment of
the thama Absolute sympathy ali!.-- with tlie spirit
of tho piece aud ths glimpse of the production was
evident in every detail of the work and In every mo
mont of the performance. "Lysandei" and " i_*iii
BBB?Ba" '' Htlena" and " Hermia," wandering about In
''tho palace wood," lying down to bleep of aaa mind
sud rising up of quito another, seemed perfectly jirob
al.le, and no one could havo thought of questloning
eitlmr tho likelihood ot " HuttomV tran-Uguremont,
or the pranks of " Fuck." or the infatuation of "ii
tania" Mr. Daly, with true di amalle liisllnrt. has
curtailed the original text at tin- precise und only point
where lt approaches tediousness-1| the scene of tho
imminent sc ii tomago of the furious lovers: so that not
an Instant of tho pl*-*"* was si) Ho md to drag. Po far.
Indeed, was this comedy Lom seeming to be shadowy
and Banal thar, acted and (BabaUish-d In this way,
ft excited tarprlSf al Hs abundance of human vitality,
Its wealth ot diversified materials, aud Its absorbing
Interest. Tho stately, yet teeming, pause tssforc tho
royal nuptial* of *? Tbrvous" and '* Htppolyta," tho
restrained auger of "Aegeus"?a skilfully arrested
action, very helpful toward suggestion of domett!*:
environment tho perplexities of the four lovers,
l.oil.c.ed, Ladled arid blessed by fairy Influence tho
ttrlfe of "Titania" and "Oharas," the humoious com?
mon ufo of the mechanic amateurs oi Athen-, and thar
hilarious Interlude of " Pyramus and Thisbe," which ls
the father of all burlesque all those, fused and welded
In a lexi which ls one golden stream of melody, make
th** opulence of a sprightly, wise, and significant al
loL'-.ry of luiiiiiin life, a play that cornea as near to
human syinpaihy as anything thal Slialiesjioare ever
wrote. It wein a pity indeed that (his, ho great a
"...ince of jileasuro, should be abandoned and lost to
the stage upon the theory that exquisite poetry must

Actoi-s. who try to Interpret a poetic play often spoil
lt I'roclsoly so. There ls a hind of -poetic play
which ls poetic and nothing else, and Unit kind of play
lot tin beat acton on earth can make significant ob
tl,* stago. Consider, for example, "Tbe Spanish Stu
deut," by Longfellow, aud "ibe Promise of May," by
Tonny-an. Hut, when the play ls dramatic is well as
po.:!.r ti,* actors do not ipoll lt ?li* they aro good
lints*. Ibis ls the case now. Mr. Daly ha* revived
"A .Ylil.u'i.i.'i i Night's Dream1' with an essentially
powerful .asl, lt not quite a perfect one. and that I*
au advantage which lt has not enjoyed before, ou the
New-York stage, *lnee HintonV time. Even when
?ffered with a positively bad cast, as tl was at the old
Olympic Theatre about twenty years ago, lt ran for a
r-nnclied nights, to good houses. How much more
Should it rcnsliily prosper when brought forth, as
now. al a much more ar.ljlclons place and time, with
all ibu trappings aud the tull* of beauty, aud with
inch players as Ad* 1'ehan. John Drew James Ijowls,
Virginia I)r*_er. < haries Fisher. Otis Skinner. William
lid bert, charles Leclercq, Joseph ll*.Hand and little

Much attention centred upou Mr. L/-w!s as "Bot?
tom." Il seems to be thought by various Judges that
this comedian has much to dread by way of com?
parison No method oi crlticista could be more stu?
pid, but. even when lt 14 adopted, the fact ernaln* that
nobody since Hutton has given au extraordinary per

"Last Man," wat a failure la " Hot tom " Fox, won

NICE MORAL DISTINCTIONS AT THE BUB.

Conversation at ibo afternoon teas ls taking ? little
wldcj; raugo. Tho litoraturo clac,sos, very popular
Just now, have progressed a* far as Dryden, and now
that Chaucer and hpeii*er and Milton have been
studied, the available lund of literary Information
and of anecdote ls larger than lt wat. I'nfortunstely
for Milton, he ls out of favor wtth tho so-called literary
ladles of Beaton. To bo sure, he wi ute some good
things, and had certain conception* of poetry, but his
treatment of Mary rowell, the weal society ehit,
whom he unwisely married, and his speculation* ton Ti?
ing divorce,have banished him from their ?-ood books,
and blot, In their opinion, hts literary fame. Bul
they lust dote on Dryden, who married a woman of

ADVICE TOA DERCTANTR.

Just a word, Miss Deburarte, before you bogil
that next dance, lou seem to think that you ian
walt* yourself into a nenplretion. and then stand
.millugly in a eallllng draught without injury. 1 o t)
really believe that you can go through all tko nun
bei*i of this programme and hop around ou this floor
until late t? morrow morning and (till seep th*-**
rose* In your cheek* arte that merry laugh In your
voice Relieve us, MUs Debutante, yon cannot do lt.
If yon, want to grow np Into healthy womanhood: l(
von want lo escape an Invalid ? fate; If you wish lo
know whit real bappiue** ls, you alli havo to slop
thi* Indi.sciIn,malo sinning against tho laws of com?
mon sense. You will h*vo to go a little slower and
pay moro heed to tho advice of ymir mother. You
may think lt Jolly to Jeopard"** Ihe health of a lite
Mino for the careless folly of one german, but If you
will eton about two seeomLs to mushier, yo,, may
think otherwise. Just think a little amt don't risk
your own self ami bankrupt your ta.her, who ha* to
pay your doctor'* bill*.
And a won! with you, Mr, Droas coal I You ar*
yoting; you have a good position; you expect to rita
In the world, and make money at,I success In your
work. Very well; but le do that yon must lake ctr*
of yourself. No guardian angel l, going to follow.
