Well, [ bardly kuow If 1 can be considered a quahifieit wituess on the puh}cul sceing that for thirty years my visits to the theatre lave only avericed ono in thres years; bLut still I hear and resd what otlicrs thlok, on vorions sides,— snd am watching sl the time the dritt of all auch influouces and Institutions,—and 1 cannot s.c that there §a any reason for 8o condemniog the drama or the theatre. [ cantot help think- fjog that o good deal of talk about the decay of the drama s very much of a8 plece with the —genersl for “the good ola times,”” We hear of g hasiera af the older state,—we don't hear of themultituds who were as much telaw our average as those few were atove it. 1t Istrue tne drama of our day has found no special form of 1ts own, but tlen fn that respect {tis only intho predicsment of all art, The originality of this sge does not run into art. We have no characteristic nincteenth-century arenitecture; and 1€ Wuaner hus evolved ** the musicof the future,” even ho would be hard set to deflue the musle of the present! But, howevar, #s for the question of artistic or in- tallectual decay, religion has no concern with it. ‘That must take carc of itsell. Taoking as the theatro in the light of Chrls- (fanity, it I8 ite3moral cbsracter alone that wa have to do withh, And In this, I do not hesitate to clalm that {nstead of any decline, thery has in the present day heen a ateady und marked fm- provement. itls wortu remembering, indeed, 1lmt the nctusl opposition to theatres on ro- ligious grounds has never re:ll{ had much to do with thelr inoral character. 1 hear peuple 8a) gomatimes, *Oh, Il the theatrs were what It must bava been in 8hakspearo’s doy, wo should not oppose it.” But it was preciscly av that time, fo the pafmicst season of the English drama, when some of the world's grandest works were belng produced,—not for readiog, but simply a8 acted plays,—it was wvreciscly then that the staze began tobemost veheinently denounced, sud actors to be licld up as the es- eclal :hu(fruu of Batan, Thesimplo fact {s, that o that Elizabethan drama it was by no means sl Bhskepeare; and fn tho succecding tinea the atgpe somctimes sank to the very lowest Tevel, fi has gomie very fow leyels to-day, and ftlsoften those loweat and foulest develop- ments of it that make most glare und show, shall baye & word to say ol these directly. But the gensral moral status of the stage aa a pro- feshion was probably never 50 high s it s to- day. There nover probably wers so many peopla connected with theatres living respectable, do- meatic lives; It was never before so posaible for actors and actresacs tolive such lives. Amongmy warmest friends (n Eogland I have counted somo who wers actors, and cuflmmr enough the flrst man who came to greet me as [ came down from this pulpit, the first time I ever stood in it, was an actor {n one of the best American companies, who reminded me of the days, thirty yeara ago, when he had been a scholar In my Sunday-school class, I know ft must be a lifo with great temptations in it,—In lta usctiledness, its lsto hours, Ita excliement,~yet of lato years the Ieading lights of the stage have been as clcan as sny athers,—cleaner than many! Certainly, I shouid be Inclined to back the stage for purity sisainst politicsl 8o that, on the whole, I cannot sce any valld reason why the theatre should not hold its rhm I mako no sentimental argument for it do not claim that it is a great moral teacher,— though, at times, {t has beon. But it is one of the torms to which thie mind of inan betakos ft- self for amusoment, recreation, and intellectual mutus und change, und all that has to bodone 18 togive it the saine cars which atl istitutions 1equira to keep it as clear as possible from evil, aud to furlly and elevate it tone, And 1 have to say that the care thus required {othe present duy, not in tho theatrc only, but fn ol kinds of amuscment, is very me For 1t can “hardly be debled that n regard to pleasure and amusement there 188 laxer tona thraughout soclety than there OuRDL to be,—a disposition to accept auythin ibat {s pleassut without much acrutiny, wnh.-fi {s weakening tho lines that divide &ood fromn evll, und fo many ways lowerlng the moral Btaming of soclety, And so in the theatre, while, a8 1 hayo sald, the moral character of actors has, on the while, markedly improved, it 18 widely chiarged that thero is great moral de.

THE REVIVAL.

CmicAdo, Jan, 20.—As my name has been so promninently brought forward in the unfortn- nate offair of the Fidelity Bank, I feel com- pelled to make a Dbriel statement of facts con- nected with the same. When I first learned of the abstraction of the bonda, eo far from at- tempting any concealment, I alded Dr. Turpin in thelr recovery nud in securing the person of my son, As soon as practicable, | made resti- tution of the bonds, not becauae I was legally or morally bound to do so, but because [ was determined the depositors of the bank shonld lose nothing by me or mine.

Accordingly, took measures to bring him te- fore the County Court, and ptace Ul in the osylum, where he properly belongs. Both his mother snd myrell had been satisiled for months nreviously that his mind was seriously fnpaired, hut wers afrald to precipitate the ‘matter by untimely in- terference, The Court was regularly constitut- e, the witnesses of undoubted futegnty uid truth, many of them having lived liere miore than twenty-tive years, and their testimony wus un- tmpesched i every particular. ‘The physicians, three in number, were men of learniug aml large practical experience, cqually beyond sus- plefon, The members of both furfes were en- tlrely nnknown und never belore neen by any of the ‘witnesses. No lufluence, dircetly or fndi- rectly, was brought to bear upon them to con- trol the verdict, ‘Ihe first jury disagreed, after belng out several houra; the sevond unfi pon a verdlct almost upon cnterin 1he jury-room.
