During the past week there has been playing at this theatre an sctor whose name the public is just beginnizg to mention curioualy and witn interest,—an actor who has wrung praise from the piess of every city ho bas played in in his two visits to this OCoctinont, and who Las won from the audiences, which have o far abandoned precedent 88 to seo & good thing without the previous necessity of having its excellence dinned into them, the most flattering marks of approval and enthusiaatic admiration. Wybert Tiseva is this most interestiog artist, an English- man of & fine type, aud an actor of intellectual acquirements,—3a man of fine phyeiquo and grace- ful carriage, of long experience upon the stuge, snd the creator of oue of the strongest aud most picturesque characlera in the modern theatre. g Last senson quite oarly Mr. Reeve arrived in New York a stiauger, undor the unfortanate in- fluence of s pational failing—wodosty. He was unscquaintod with tbe mecessity existing for “splurgg” iuto s sensation. Ho had not leatned that sucient &na essential maxim of suc- cess on this side: “DBlessed 13 he that blowoth his own horn,” not believing it absoluto- 1y estcntial to apprisa American auaiences of his excellence s an actor through posters, bangers, dodgers, or other devices obtaining in the dra- ‘matio profession. Putting himself into the hands of amanager in Naw York, he bired the Old Broadway Theatre, where a miserable companv ‘was engaged to support bim, and there made his Gobut in America. The critics were enthusisstic. They went out of their accustomed way to praise him. They agreed that art was coamo- olitan and know o country. They thought Ir. Beeve's play, ** The Womao in White,” as repared for the staga by Mr. Collins snd Alr. eave, was an intensely interesting play, aod that Mr. Reeve's conception and presentation of Count Foscoplaced it amung the masterpieces of the moderu stage. . oW Ar. Reeve learned from experience of the acorn *‘that patient merit of tho unworthy takes." All the well-earned praise of his pro- fessional critica; all tho earnest, hearty, enthu- siastic applause of his few anditory, failed to popularize his plece. He did not mako s ** bhit™ with the gicat mass. He bas repeated this ex- perience wherever ho bas gone. He has this comforting assurance, hom_.Jr, thiat Joe Jeffer- sou's experience was the same. The bundreda of thousands who flock to worship Rip Van inkle nowadays, as Mr. Jefferson waoders through the country, failed for along time to appreciate the besuty of that sunny character, or the art which cunceived md‘pic:m’efl it. Some day Mr. Reeve will find himsalf famous as Count Fosco, when it becomes the faghion. Meanwhile hie must toil for the few who really sppreciato him already. His week 2t McVicker's laat season was deaperately poor,. It has improved a little. Next season, if he has the courage to come 2gain, ha will ied- hmself growing popalar Alr. Reeve is one of those natures which favor, cannot countenance puffery. He adheres to the highest standsrd of art, sud, by keeping this in _view, will slowly but purely force a recognition. It is tedious work. and not altogether grutifying when the end is accomplished, Tho pecuniary gain could be roached much mora easily. A judicious smount of splurge and bombast, forced eccevtricities, bravado,—anything striking, whether admirable or not.—would secure him the pubhc attantion. e prefers to wait. Mr. Reeve is not the only actor who hias been cotdly treated. In personsting the characier of Fosco Mr. Reeve -utudies rather to prescnt 3 conwistent, intelligible beiog, acting in obedience to certain impulses of themselves inteiligiole to tae audi- enco in euch a manuer as to counterfeit nature in the closest degres. Passing over the general features of the cbaracter, wiich we bave alreadv mentioned, we have s few words to devoto to the closing scones of the piece. ‘The des- porato depthw of his character havo boen gradu- ally developed in the glaring frauds which Fosco has commitied. - There has been but ohe weak- uess 1n the whole of s career, and tbat 18 his love for Marion Holcomb, which tends rather to throw . light upon snd measure tho oxtent of the man's capacity for evil . He bas been shown to be cool; dark, dangerous, and capable of choosing a tarriple alternative. By the insight gained 110 the character, the glimpse given of it in the former acts, the mind is prepared for some catastrophe of wousual atrocity. We ex- pect some doed of horior; this scems immnent, and the intensity of the aituation lies mainly in the'event which is to erown the pieca. The uucertamty is tho key-note of the situa- tion, Consequently the scene betwaen Waller Hartwright "and Count Fosco poesessca elemouts of great dramatio strenzth in itself, Tle dramatist bas done lus share toward work- ingit'up, and bas drawo it out to its utmost tension, prepariny several iugenious surprises to add to the interest. It 18 tho acting of Mr. Reeve, however, that is nocessary to give the tove to the scene. His mauner, his movements, the air of desperate ferocity with which he pre- pares for an emetgency, and tae tranquility with which he meets it. give tothe character -and the ovents espected au mr of deliberate, premedi- tated borror. Whether it is this or some peculiar gift of the actor that holds the audience spell- bound is 8 question.

Thero is a scone in which h appears to be sctoally on tae point of marderiog,—unot 1ago, for the mind retaius enough of the sur- roundiugs tu remember that it is only a counter- felt Iago it contemplates,—but the poor, harm- less actor who i8 ptaving Jago. . Thisoverwhelm- ing fear 18 akin to the fealing produced by Count Fosco. The latter1s the moro clulling, Low- ever, ‘as tho movement i8 more cool and deliberate, and - the senss cf diabolism wmore perfect. Salvini's Othello is a rav- ening brute from which the semblance of humanity is for the timo obliterated by paseion ; Count Fosco is-acting without passion, sud therefore without pellisting ciicumstances. The feeling inspired of inevitable doom is tuat which overcomes one &t an execution, and makes the heart staud still in sgonized expectation of the 'last act of the dismal tragedy. To seek aume ozber object to rest the mind is an instruc- tive desire, but ove waich cannot be gratified. The death of Fosco by the hand of an assassin isa relief, the horror fades away a8 the lovers are united. With the inspiration of a fall house 3Mr. Reove could perform wonders n this part. Thers are four opportunitissleft to play- goers to xee Mr. Reeve, for he plays Thursday myght for the last time, leaving the city next day for New Orleaus. HOOLEY'S THEATBE. After last week's experiegce at Hooley's The- atre we cry “Giva us more of it.” Wo want more old comedy. * Money” ran well for three nights, was played well, and made a popular sensation. But the hit of the week was “London Assurzoce.” Itwas only played twice,—Thuredsy and Friday nights. Saturday, twice Bartley Campbell insisted upon oxercising his suthonty, and so * The Virgio- jan" was played. This was a pity, becauso, though * Tle Virginian ” may be o sterling pro- duction, spakling and biidiant; ** London As- surance” has one or two e comparative- ly good points, snd is nearly as well kpown and almost equally sdmired.. In- asmuch as the iodulgent public has allowed “Tho Virginian™ to sit up longer than is permitt:d to most infants of its age and robustuess, its crying for an extension of privi- lego ufter everybody thought it in bed aud fast asfeep, i, to sav the leas, a littlo tiresome. It 18 more 80 in view of the {actthat we are to have amore of Bartley Campbell this week, in the form of * Peril,” which Mr. Campbeil has re-writter: ; and are to smvive more yet in the form of ** On tho Rbine,” with possibia attacks of * Fate,” + Hearts,” * Risks,” while a vague terror of “Torongh Fire” has taken hold of thepeople. Thua we turn to ** London Assurance " with o gigh, and will cherish the memory of its per- formauce, in view of the long and tedious winter Lefore us at Hooloy's. .. We are induced tospeakof it asa perfect drama,—by contrust,—but have & few words of romonstratce against soms things. Tho open- \nz iutorview between Sir farcourt sod Max tarkaway is becoming tedious "in this age of eentiment and awash, sud if Mr. Willisma will Lindiy go over it some day aud reduca it he will confor a favor. He will leave the cast just as it 16, if 1 can teach Mise Doyle_how to talk with- out clenching ber teath, aud Mr. Crane to add one other gesture to thecne be bhas, With these improvements, and one or two orthoopic changes in the speeches ho may boast of playing **Lon- don Assurauco " admirably at Hooley’s Theatre. 'Alr. O'Neil played tho part of Dazzle. Barang a habitual tendency to force the gayetyof a scone, or & speech, by endeavoring to put tos wuch muscie uto it, he played it well: He pos- sesses the necessary vivacity in his” mauner, but iv uot aware of it, consequently he1s apt to be over-glad, over-reckless, over-dashing. and not quite casy. DBut there are sceses m the part wiich he piays with foll and perfect enjoyment of their frecdom. Dazzle, while ho lives on his wits, and suffers 00 gieat degreo of mortification at Living to spooge s living, is 8 good feilow in tho play; he performs some quite praiseworthy acts, and ministers to the nltimate happioess of all partiesin-a very uoselfish eort of way. Ab the same time Dazile naver ordered wine known as * Maderia.” The ouly idea such a_word sug- gests is maceria medica—a suspicion from which & bon vivant like Dazzie would shrnk in blank dismay. Similarly with Mr. Ryer. If ho must talk Fieuch, let his French bs French. There are more thungs in Freuch thau hie dreams of in his plulosophy ; for instance, the cedjlla, which gives thec in flaccn the youud of 8. We emphasize tis trivial error for the sake of keeping the artists of Mr. Hooley's company slive to tho im- portance of cortect Euglish—and French, too, 1f necossary. 1f the stage is intendod to couserve the Ilanguage, such mistakes are grosa. Tho more imporiant part, the acting of Sir Harcourt, was & clever performauce. 1t wasrich 1o tra- dinonsl poits, but rather stiff ia digoity. A litde oiliug would bave given it more courtliness —and this was needed. Miss Hawthorne played with epirit the part of Zady Gay—the most welcome ever written for au accress. Sue oxcels rather in parts of strong emotional character than in such cashing roles, but there was litile to criticise in her perform- an g 8, ce. Mr. Murdoch was, as usual, easy, cool, col- lected, with s tendency to say ** Madam ™ for “Migs,” and s thorough appreciation of the humor of the piece. Between Charles Courtley and Dazzle it is necessary to exhibit some degree of warmth and familiarity on the stage. Lack- ing this the scenes between the two are luke- warm. To attain tlis necessary cordiality may require no httle rebearsal, but itis the right of the sudience to claim it, and they do so. The public must be served before the actors. Busi- ness before pleasure is the rule on the stage. iisa Doyle played the part of Grace Harka- way, and she did not 1illustrate the character for several reasons. She does not open her mouth 80 &8 to give the sudience the beuefit of r. Boucicault's wit in one of Mr. Boucicault’s hap- iest churacters; ehe mieses the points of her ines, which adds to the other defect, and aids in ngmling tbe ropresentation. 1isa Doyle has not the natural sdvantage of & clear, sympathetic voice, and should lose no opportunity of giving utterance to the good things ‘‘without hemta- tion, and sayiog them boldly.” Miss Doyle dresses woll, and 15 at home on the Stage, and, with a little caro and study of elocution, would appear to greater advantage than she does at prosent. - Mr. Crane's Meddle is & veryamusing perform- ance. Itistull of good poiuts and complete self-forgetfulness, is well made up, acd well acted. But that one gestare remains unchanged. Mr. Futzpatrick's Dolly Spanker was & peat piece of acting, and the romainder of the charac- fers were very creditably taken. Indeed, tbera ia every argnment for and none against the res- urrection of . good comedies at Hooley's, and afier the exhaustion of the stock of **modern society drames " now on hand,—earlier if possi- ble,—we hope Mr. Hooley will coadescend to give us some more of them. ** Divorce " is to follow ** Peril,” aud then comes **She Stoops to Conguer.” The poblic wil be just as well pleased with Goldsmith, Sheridan Knowles, or any other ancient and forgotten writers, 88 with suthors of the present day. * Divorce” will be interesting from the return to the stago of this city of Miss Faany Marsh, Who Was a% one time a strong favorito with the public at McVicker's Theatre. She will alternate with Miss Hawthorno. Tho cast of ** Peril,” which will be played to- morrow eveping, will be &8 follows: Dick Rotheley. Ralph Havden Naomi. i Tha piece will bo richly mounted, and s well dressed a8 life at Long Branch requires. ACADEXY OF NUSIC. Mies Ells Wesner has been playing to fair bustness at the Academy of Music daring the past week, exhibiting her ability to counterfeit the lords of creation in the proper.use of the ‘masculine uniform,—an art in which she excels. The present week Mr. Gardiner has reserved forspectacular effects. Hehas prepared **Alad- din" with great elaborateness, and has collected material for a grand display of 1imba, costumes, coryphees, and colors. He will give the patrous of his theatre a glimpse into the Grotto of Dia- monds, a glance ac the: cascade of real water, and the Amazonmarch from the * Black Crook.” THE ORAND OPERA-TIOUSE. The Minstrels have done an unusually large business during the week, and preserve the afterpiece which has gained so much favor for the present week.

The managers of the Lakeside Lectura- Courso, after making the most strenuons exer- tions to complete Farwell Hall in time for the in-| aaguration of that lecture by Senator Schurz, are compelled to. adjourn to the Weat Sido for their opening entertainmont. Workmen have been busy by day and by gas- light at night, during the pass week, in order to accomplish the desired end. The ball is now completed, but the seats, which are of iron, and mauufactured by a New York firm, have not been received in time to place them in position by ‘Tuesday evening. ‘We are therefore authorized to state that Sen- ator Schurz wiil deliver hid lecture on ** Ednca- tional Problems” in the First Congrogasional Charch, on Washicgton street, corner of Ans, Tuesday evening, Nov. 17. ‘Lhe seats Liers have been numbered, as far 8s possible, to corro- spond with the reserved sea!s sold for Farstell Hall, and paschasers will bo sccommodated mith i advantages for seeing aud hearing with- out the necesgity of exchangiug their tickets. We are requested to state that thenew Farwell Hall will bo completely ready for cezupation by Nov. 23, when the'second of the entercainments of the Lakeside Course will bo given ‘by the Adelaide Phillipps Concert Company.

"Fho remainder of this courss will be given by Bret Harte, Hepwith Dixon, tho Camilla Urso Compacy, and Mrs. Scott-Siddons. . The low price of the course tickets, and theattractiveness of the entertsinments, have contributed largely tosho uoprecedented success in tho salo of tickets ; and it is therefore necessary for those who desira to secure- seats to do so Monday or Tuesday of this week. i % 6TAR LECTURE-COURSE. The sixth ecason of ** Star " entertainments, which havo now become a recognized institution among the popular emusements of the city, is to bo inaunzurated Tuesday night in McCormick Hall by Prof. Swing. In selecting the most popular public spesker in Chicago to open mot only their course, but the local lecture-geason 83 well, the managers have paid a just compli- ment to the city, and that Prof. Swing will honor both it and the Star Courge no one will doubt who bas ever heard any one of his briliant loc- tures. However popular Prof. Swing bas be- come as a preacher, those who have ouly heard him in the pulpit know little of the suppressed power of tho man which is manifested so fully when be feels himsel? freed from pulpit ro- geraints and themos. As a genial satirist, and prillisnt, eententious wit, the Professor has no superior among the public sponkers of the whole country, and in the theme be has selected for discussion Tuesday night scope is given fora fall display of those too seldom exhibited talents. Stace the great fire, when ho was called upon to preparc some articles upon Chicago, the Profes- sor has devoted considerable thought to thesocial, ‘moral, aud political condition of the city, and the broad, philosophic, and catholic spiric which characterizes his treatment of all subjects will novw secare to him the confidence of clagses of citizeus and thiokers, aud impart to his dis- cussion of the themo he has chosen for his lecture an elementof impartiality and philosophy which will give tohis conclusions greas weight in the commuuity. **Tha True Citizen, or 2 New Patriotism for Chicago.” is the title of his lec- ture, and the desire to hear us views, as well as the local interest felt in the subject, will insure the same large and brilliant audience that at- tsndsnpon his every public ‘appearance—par- ticularly as the managers have taken care that this wiil be the ouly opportunity to bear the lectare, baving bought the manuscript outright. With their accastomed enterprise they have also made exclusive arraugements with the South and West Side 'bus lines bv which all purchasers of reserved seats before the lecture are given *bus tickets which entizle them to a froeride both to the ball and bome azain sfter the lecture; s saving trouble and expense to the public. s arrangement bes been made for all the Star entertunments to pe given in McCormick Hall, of_which the lecture on *TLe S:age,” by Daniel Douglerty, and tbe threo readings by Charlotte Gushman, are aiready announced—the former for Thanzegiving night, and the latter on the 30th of November, and Dec. 1 and 2. The sale of “option tickets” bas greatly increased during the week, they baving become a very popular amusement mvestment since the public has fully understood that they entitle to a selec- tion of any of the entertainments given during the whole winter. Tobe nble to secure reserved seats forany of the Cushmsu readings or the Richings-Bernard concerts, as well as all the lectares, for 50 cents, is & privilege which amuse- ment-goers are not slow tu appreciate.
