Special Correspondence of The Chicago Tribune. Lonvos, Eng., Aug. 30.—What Londoners call “ the season,” with its fashionable fetes and popular recreations, has reached & hight. In the matter of amusements wo suffer from 2n embarrassment of riches such ns was never known before. If it was hard to decide between Henry Irving’s benefit and the opening of Hayerly’s ‘Minstrels, last Saturday evening, it was very much harder, except for those who had booked seats be- forehand, to get into either. ‘The English are said to take their pleasure sadly; but, sadly or gladly, they manage to take it. The truth is, we need a deal of amusing in this basin of the Thames, where disconsolate skiesare forever weeping over us; and such a play as “ ‘fhe Danites,” or such a troupe as the Mastodons, comes like a godsend. It is curious to note that an American Jeayen has begun to spread among us lately, and to manifest itself in various directions, though chiefly for the moment in the direc- tion of the stage. In English family-life the Aierican ingredient is not large as yet; but what there is of it Is VERY DISTINGUISHED, and, in the English homes which they preside over, such women as Lady Vernon Harcourt, Lady Randolph Churchill, and the Viscount- ess Mandeville gracefully represent, and let ‘us hope will also transmit, American beauty and vivacity. The first-named lady, it may be remembered, was formerly srs. Ives, the daughter of the historian Motley, and, as the wife of the Home Secretary, she occupies a position in official circles only second to that of Mrs. Gladstone herself. Lady Churchill a few years aco was Jenny Jerome, daughter of Leonard Jerome, of New York’s Her hus- band is a son of the Duke of Marlborough, ‘and has’ some brains. with which he succeeds _ pretty well in harassing the Government; and, al- though his Lordship was never meant to remind us of Apollo Belvedere, his wife fortunately has good Jooks enough for both. ‘The Viscountess Mandeville is another well- dowered daughter of New York, whose beauty is greatly admired in. very high cir- eles here, and who will some day be Duchess of Manchester. I might add indefinitly to the list of American women who have be- come noted English wives; but I need hard- ly do so, for it-is a fact now receiving fre- quent illustration at Hymen’s altar, that the most exclusive and insular Briton don’t look on marriages with American women as for- eign alliances. The English very rarely in- termarry with the French, the Italians, or other Continentals; but, judging from what we have seen in late years,.the fashion of Anglo-American matches is likely to spread. Outside of family-circles, and amid inter- ests more public, the American leaven be- comes more obvious, although certainly not more decided. IN THE ARTISTIC PROFESSIONS ESPECIALLY, Americans are finding abundant expression in England. The fact is, they have some corners of the wide dumain of Art almost to themselves. Madame Antoinette Sterling hus for long been the prime favorit of Lon- don concert-rooms; and more recently Mrs. Osgood has taken a place beside her in pub- lic ‘favor and social esteem. ere, where the observances of Court-etiquet are as the jaws of the Medes and Persians, it was talked of as an unprecedented mark of Royal grace when Queen Victoria’ con- sented to have Mrs. Osgood sing a ballaa to her in a2 high-necked dress; but I dare say we had in this instance an in- verted ‘application of the saying, No song, no supper. The above duo of concert-room favorits is likely to become a trio by the ad- dition of Miss Thursby; and_by-and-by a quartet by the addition of Miss Hope Glen,— another native of America, as yet profession- ally unknown in her own country. When I y to think who are the three English ladies who may compete at our concerts and pri- vate fétes with Madame Antoinette Sterling, Mis. Osgood, and Miss Thursby, I must frankly confess I cannot name them,—no, not even one, unless it be Miss Mary Davies. The forward movement on the part of American artists in London is not in one de- partment only, but in all,— EVEN IN-THAT OF DRAMATIC RECITATION. Recitation has perhaps never been a very popular form of entertainment, but London’s Gargantuan appetite has always shown some relish for it when it bas been first-class of its kind. It is worthy of note, therefore, that the only readings which have attracted atten- tion this season were those given by an American lady, Miss Gertrude Kellogg, who attracted many of the better class to Willis’ Rooms. Miss Kellogg seems to-have been imbued with a high patriotic purpose, for her programs consisted exclusively of the prose and tic productions of American authors. And, sooth to say, we are rather in need of having American books read to us if our mental state is fairly represented by the Peer’s daughter (and she was not an imma- ture daughter either) who, after listening to a drawing-room recital of “+ Tennessee’s Partner,” asks the quesiio! is Bret Harte aliving author?” Bret Harte himself gave the best answer to this question by deliver- ing his lecture on “The Argonauts of ’49” afew evenings subsequently, on which occa- sion I hope my denighted countrywoman had ocular demonstration of his existence. In Glasgow they seem to entertain no doubt about the matter. THis appointment to the Consulate of that city was ‘hailed with lively satisfaction by the Scotch, and 1 have seen several odes of welcome to him in the Glas- gow papers. When last heard from, Mr. dlarie was the guest of Vi in Black, the novelist, at Oban, in the West Highlands. PERDAPS THE MOST UNQUALIFIED TRIBUTE (Lam sorry I cannot in the circumstances call it a compliment) which England has Tendered to. an American, was that paid by the Royal Academy, unconsciously and un- intentionally, to Ernest Parten, the land- Scape-painter. Mfr. Parton wields a masterly brush, and last year he had two pictures. ac- cepted at the Academy Exhibition. One of these, “ The Waning of the Year,” was pro~ nounced the feature ofthe gallery in which it was hung, and general ‘satisfaction was felt when it became known that it had been purchased by the Academy from the Chant- Tey fund. The purchase, however, was mide under the erroneous supposition that Mr. Parton was an Englishman, and the Academy, as soon as they learned their mistake, had the bad taste to seek to cancel it There was no reason either ‘to expect or to wish Mr, Parton would agree to this, and I ‘should be sur- prised to hear that he did. A few years ago viewed in New. York some Scotch-High- land landscapes, so true in feeling that I was beguiled into the belief till lately that the artist must have been born and bred among the scenes depicted; and the incident I have telated recalled to me the all-but-forgotten fact that his name was Arthur on. No doubt Arthur is Ernest’s brother,—in Art as Nell as by nature. ‘ Turning now to the dramatic stage, the movement, which may be called a reconnais- sance in otherdepartments of Art, is found in this to assume : THE DIMENSIONS OF AN INVASION. Itvisa new thing for Londoners to behold four of their most impurtant theatres all at one time in- possession: of American actors, and given up to the production of American plays; and the fact.suggests the question what this amicable and welcome invasion of the British boards may signify. Does it point toa time when the Stage on both sides of the <Atlantic will be the common ground of English-speaking actors,—when, in a profes- sional sense, there will exist no distinction tween the British andthe American born? It has certainly not been so hitherto. A few actors and actresses come and go be- tween the two hemispheres, but such luminaries are few and far between, and, so far as’ the profession generally is concerned, there never has any com- merce or free exchange between its branches on the two sides of the Atlantic. ‘The inferi- oe of the pecuniary return made to actors country, when compared with Amer- fca, hasno doubt been one obstacle to such a conterces but there is afield here which orth the attention of may yet become ee neir heated tern), American actors duri J and perhaps even during the winter, sehen 8 new sphere of operation is desire ‘e Harkins has set an example which some of hiscountrymen may be tempted to be ae During the season just over he took a company through the British provinces, and met with a recognition 2 coin both press and_ public which must ave agreeably surprised him. His heas3 ‘Ys 9 1 style, yet effective tragedy was a Nt juistrionisin that has not been seen in this country of recent years, and people probably enjoyed it as a reniiniscence of the past. jiose Bytinge, the Knights, and others who till then were strange to English audiences, have been in the provinces,—with uo reason, 1 suppose, to complain of their recep- tion. It appears, therefore, there has been a considerable theatrical commerce during the past year between the two countries. The importation has not been allon one side and the exportation on the other, but on both sides. Nevertheless, if a balance were struck, England's imports would be found greatly to exceed her exports; and of course exactly the reverse must be true of America. THE FOUR THEATRES NOW PRESENTING AMERICAN ATTRACTIONS are the Globe, where the excellent McKee Rankin company are appearing in “The Danites”; the Gaiety, where Raymond is holding forth as “Col. Sellers”; Sadler’s Wells, where the Knights are playing ee and ler if esty's mheatze, ui pare Hiaverly’s Minstrels have begun to i To these names will shortly be added the Florences in “The Mighty Dollar,” and per- haps by-and-by Edwin Booth. Booth’s prob- able appearance in London is looked forward to with interest by all, here-who are familiar with his acting, and by the much larger number who have only heard of it, In the event of his appearance in such a character as Hamlet, comparisons with Irving would be unavoidable. In my humble judziment— and I am uot blind to Mr. Booth’s faults either,—Afr, Irving’s Hamlet will not bear a too rigid comparison with Booth’s, either in formorconception means orend.body or soul. Inthe firstrespect, Buoth’s Hamict is less fantastic than Irving’s; in the other, itis more poetical. Irving may be more dazzling, and even more perspicuous, at certain points in the play; but Booth shines. more steadily throughout, Nature, also, has rather heavi- ly handicapped Mr. Irving as compared with Mr. Booth. Though the former is even something more at the present moment than the gloss of fashion, he is very far from being the mold of form. Only power, origi- nality, and taste in a marked degree could haye enabled him to take London by_storm as he has done season after season. Hamict is not his masterpiece; but neither is it Mr. Booth’s. If Booth should play in London before he returns to America, no doubt he will avoid seeming to challenge at the out- set a comparison with London’s idol, and I would like to see him make his first appear- ance here either as Bertuccio in “The Fool’s Revenge,” or as Cardinal Richelieu. ‘The appearance of THIS POWERFUL BRIGADE OF AMERICAN ARTISTS in London gives great satisfaction to the amusement-loving public, and bestows on the present season .a character of its own. It may even accomplish something more lasting by stimulating the native drama, “The Danites” is a production well calculated to do so, and the success with which it was in- troduced months ago at Sadler’s Wells still attends it at the Globe. Imade acquaintance with “The Danites” at the first-named theatre,.and marked the curious interest which it awakened in the swells of Moyfair, and the noi sto with which the Clerkenwell an its success, V Kicked suddenly in the rear, cries ‘‘O Hellee!” the “ gods” fairly roar with delight,—recog- nizing in the ejaculation that touch of nature which establishes kinship between the Ce- Testial and ourselves. Mark Twain‘s eruder play has not won the same uustinted ap- proval, but in Raymond London has recog- nized a fine comedian, and in Col. Sellers only one fault: there is not enough of him. There issome room for doubt as to the reception awaiting the “The Mighty Dollar”; but old playgoers ‘here have not forgotten the Flor- ences. or the extraordinary vogue which Mrs. Florence gave the song of “Bobbin Around,” fully twenty years azo. Undoub' cay, {oe greatest success of al! willfall to the ot 0: HAVERLY’S MINSTRELS, 3 who began a season on Saturday evening to an audience which is described as the largest that ever assembled in Her Majesty’s. By an- nouncing in their advertisements that all may come dressed as they please, the troupe have ‘won the thanks of sensible people. ‘he rule requiring occupants of the stalis and boxes to appear in evening-dress causes great an- noyance, especially to strangers; but I have dnown it to be ingeniously evaded. An ac- quaintance of mine from Cape Colony was not long since turned away at the door of the Gaiety because he wore a frock-coat, and notthe regnlation swallow-tail. But he was aman of resource and resolution, and betook himself to an adjoining tailor’s.. ‘* Look here,” he said to the tailor, “I have bought a stall atthe Gaiety. They refuse me posses- yn ;because Iain not in a dress-coat. Now, 1 don’t mean to buy one for the occasion. But don’t you think you could turn in the corners of the coat Dhave on, so. and put a big stitch in here, and another big stitch there, and so make it look something like a swallow- tail?” “T can at least try to make it pass at a pinch,” said the tailor; and in three min- utes the thing was done, the man from _tho Cape laid down his shilling, and in his Pro- tean garment passed without question to his stall. : The facts given above goa long way to prove what Isaid at the beginning: that an Aterican leaven has begun to spread among: us, and to manifest itself in various direc- lions, but chietly at present in the direction of the stage. Art has been often helped by friendly ‘Tivalry;. and Dramatic Art, both here and in America, may be greatly assisted by a friendly reciproc’ RANDOLPH. “A STRANGE LOVE-STORY.

She tried on many occasions and in various ways to poison him. she donned the detestable garments of a “dushwhacker,” and fay in wait amid the pines and among the sumach-bushes to macr- der him. She organized guerrilla bands who sprang out from thicket and brake to rob and murder his friends.
