10 THE DRAMA. “Qecture by Mayor A. Oakey Hall a ! Brooklyn. Last evening Mayor Hall delivered a lecture in the ‘City Assembly Rooms, Brooklyn, under the auspices of te Brooklyn Catholic Library Association, se- Jecting 28 his subject one on Which his Honor, it is well known, can most eloquently discourse. Nor did he speak on the occasion to @ miserable array of empty benches; nor was he “damned with faint praise;” for the beautiful and commodious room Was filled to its utmost capacity, and the plaudits of welcome which he received personally on his ap- pearance were the Hirst faint overture to the more genera! and hearty applause which followed lum throughout his very witty and entertaining lecture und crowned his efforts at the close. ‘The lecturer was introduced to the audience by mr. Edmund F, Burke, who said that in the absence from the city of the worthy President of the Catho- lic Library Association it became his pleasing duty to introduce to them the distinguished lecturer of the evening—Mr. A. Oakey Hall, Mayor of the city of New York. 8 THE LECTURE. Mr. Hall, on coming forward, was again received with a burst of applause, On opening his subject he said he did not expect to meet more than the mem- bers of the association and their families; certainly not so large and critical an audience as was before him, or he would have better prepared himself for, the occasion. He came (he said) from the City of ‘Theatres, as they say in New york to Brooklyn, the City of Churches, and the embarrassment he felt was increased by not Knowing whether his audience were from the high, middie or low church. He had to speak of the modern drama at the very moment that the clocks ofjBrooklyn and New York struck eight o’clock, There are now gathered within the sound of any gun that may be fired from Brook- lyon Heights those that worship under any form or semblance the modern drama at least five hun- dred thousand people or worshippers. Quite a gene- ration; quite the population of a village, or the Population of one of the counties of this State; even the population of a Western citya few years ago, before the West assumed its present gigantic pro- portions, And there they are assembled and will be for three or four hours, partaking of the feast of the modern drama, which, while they enjoy a whole course, we can only partake of a few dishes. Ifink you may come to the same conclusion, that they are in danger of mental dyspepsia, and nothing but a miracle will save them—such a miracle as i read of the other day in one of the Brookiyn papers. I had the honor of addressing a@ jury over here the other day and was badly beaten—a jury up for the most part of Dr, Beecher’s church. The miracle of which I spoke was alluded to by a Methodist preacher, who delivered a very pleysant little ser- mon upon the parable of the loaves and fishes, He stated it somewhat in this way.—There were seven men and five women who devoured five thousand loaves and seven thousand — fishes. His arithmetic was slightly at fault, When*he got through with his sermon one of his hearers asked, “Where docs the tniracle come in? You say that seven men and five women devoured five thou- sand loaves and seven thousand fishes.” The reacher said, “I have so stated it and will stick to it, The miracie was that none of them died of the dyspepsia.” If any of the fifty thousand who are g@atlered within the sound of that hypothetieal gun of which L have spoken that might be fired from Brookiyn Heights shall escape mental dyspepsia it Will be a strange thing. | need not apologize in any sense for having selected lor my considera- tion and yours the subject of the modern drama, or, iudeed, the drama at all, The word Mosel €Xpresses almost all the most pleasant reia- tions of hfe from childlieod to old age. The great qnaster says, “All the world’s a stage and ali the men and women merely players.” it is something ‘tuat appeals to the strongest und the kindest and the taost fervent of all the feclings of our lite. There 1s scarcely @ profession, there 1s scarcely an occupation iu Jife that has not connected with it to some extent -something that 1s dramatic. There 1s something of plot, something of pecuiiarity iu the life of almost everybody that would make any play writer rejoice. When the chiid 1s old enough to toddie across we Noor to its father’s cane in Clie corner it takes it and g0e8 advut as grandpa goes. So with the littie girl, She takes her doll and does as her mother does. ‘the schoolboy writes some satire of his feliows a8 he observes whatever is ridiculous in them. Whatare they but actors and dramatists? And this brings us back agam tote ay or the great master, that +All the world is a si biG. dn the profes-ion which Ihave the honor to belong there is no consideration tiat makes it more inier- esting than the dramatic inverests which are asso- ciated With it. The physician hes a lictle of this dra- Zoutic element in fis life, mdeed. Has life is a tragedy, sometimes a cont and if an apothe- cary sometimes a farce. The doctor of di- vinity, he has tragedy and melodrama. It is, however, m the legal profession alone that the great dramatic interests settie. You who have satin the jury box aud have been witnesses feel this. The lawyer feels it as he 18, pleading the cause of bis cueat. There is not a iawsuit gi any kind in Which there ts not a dramatic cement Involved. it ‘will be perceived as we go farther that there is uo heed Of an apology for speakiug upon the subject. But to attempt to discuss the drama im an exhaus- tive mapper would be like a speech in the House of Varhament by an English statesman which lasted nine hours. After he vad been speaking seven hours ue Of bis Colleagues Woke up and asked hit how far he had got, and was tola he had got down to where Nero fiddled. te shut his eyes and sud, “Wake me up when he gets to Eliza beto.” ‘the drama could not be properly discussed in oue evening. nor in ten evenings. He would speak of tle drama as aifecting ali kinds of representations—(he ballet, tae opera, things pas- toral, comedy, farce—every representation on tie stage which modern ingenuity bas made part aud parcel of stage represeniuuion. The drama had ite cradle in Greece, and was irom there brought and adapted in Rome, and there improved on to sorme- thlag of What it is al the present day. The drama owes Its origin to the days of Solomon, a3 may be seeu froin Lis Works, Which no one can read without / oelog convinced of the fact. But it was in its erude wiate until the Athenians took hold of it, when they brought the draina and the stage to something of its preseat shape. it is my imtenUon to compare the ancient with the modera drama. Now, in the time ul the Atheuians there Were Lo newspapers—notiung wo militate with the drama—no antagonistic seusu- tons—noiuing presented wo the people to Use or counteract the eilect of the piays to which they gatuered im such Dawbers. there Was pothing ib the ite or the circumstances of the aucients antago- Bigtic to the drama, and the people Who gathered to the representations came a¥ tw great senssconal scenes. Lvery enactment of the Atuentan drame Was a matinée—for ali the representuuons in those days were given lo the peopie in the alleruoon. Tne theatres of the ancients were always open Lu ti Ume; gas Was not discovered in those days, nor tue Oxygen light that Dr, Doretuus makes such a point of ‘The Open air was the great amphitheatre in the performances were held, with uothing biue sky above tet, and as the sun aucient representative on the sta; orb of day, used the famous passag Deciining orb of day whom now we hail The theatres of those days were the miwlity ¢ theatres of nature.

It is this commingling of region and politics that is to blame for all the licentiousness and revelry that exists, not only in the drama, but among ali classes, occupations, business, and soelal relations, We have passed through the conflict between roundheads and cavaliers during the civil war, and now we have come to the gayest times of the cavaliers after the gloom und storm of war.

BERRYER. - Lecture by Mr. John Bigelow—Inuteresting Reminiscences. Mr. John Bigelow, the predecessor of General Dix as American Minister at Paris, and before that the American Consul General in France, delivered a lecture, giving his own personal reminiscences of tue great French barrister, M. Berryer. The lecture room of the Historical Society, corner Eleventh street and Second avenue, was weil filled by one of the most intelligent audiences ever assembled to lusten to the lecture of any literary man, and the ap- plause Mr. Bigelow received must compensate hin for many disappointments and many drawbacks he must bave experienced in his dipiowatic career. Mr. Hamilton Fish, as president of the society, cailed the assemblage to order and introduced, with a few weli put remarks, the Jecturer of the evening, Mr. Bigelow, who had been the former secretary of the society. Applause greeted the introduction, and Mr. Bigelow at once entered into the,main subject of huis discourse. He said that Berryer was a remarka- bie man and probably the most remarkable forensic orator siuce Mirabeau, and, perhaps, siuce Cicero, From his youth up be was fiabued with the spirit of feudalism, ye. such was his character that he could comprehend the spirit of liberty and of republican- isul. ‘the leciurer then referred to the coutempora- ries of Berryer, the greatest of whom was Guizot, Who for sow tlwe after 1830 was the Prime Minister of France. Further reference was made to the Parliamentary triumphs. of Berryer in the Jnana frou 1845 to 1851, and to te great edurt tue deceased made to have the then Prince President ousted from bis office.

Special Committee on Railreads Appointed. The Hudson River, Erie and New York Cemtral Roads to be Hauled Up—Passage ‘of the Gas Companies Investigation Reso- lution—Increase of the Police Force—Sale of the Elm Street Arsenal Proposed. ALBANY, Feb, 16, 1869. Several days ago @ resolution of Mr. Bemus was passed requiring the Speaker to appoint a commirce to investigate the affairs of the Erte, Hudsop, ‘River and New York Central railroads, in order to ascer- tain by what right extra stock has heén issued and various other things done, of which the public are already cognizant aya to which the unfortunate stockholders “are painfully sensi- tive, but until to-day the Speaker had not appointed such committee, although the members had been anxiously waiting to see the committee set to work on this mmportant business. No doubt the ublic shared im that anxiety, for the operation of Ihe railroads throughout the State is a question of general interest not confined elther to legisiators or stockholders. ‘The following itlemen were eo ted on this committee :—Messrs. Bemus, W. M. sly, Walker, Gleason, , Jacobs and Suffern, an excellent committee in point of intelligence, and one from which the public may expect a very search- ing investigation. Another very valuable committee has also been called for by a resolution introduced by Mr. Mitchell, of New York, and passed last night. I be- fore alluded to this movement as in contempiation. It refers to a thorough stirring up of the transactions of the New York gas companies, the materials used, ‘ices charged, profits realized and frauds pe! trated upon the g4s consumers, the names of W! are legion and the bulk of wich is almost immea- surable. It is to be hoped that Speaker Yi love ‘wilt not protract the fF evepen nae of the gas commit- tee unnecessarily. There will be probably no mea- sures of more importance claimiug the time of the Legisiature during the session than these two questions. We may anticipate an exciting time when they come before the Legislature fully for discussion, It is understood that the railroads are throw golden obstacles in the way of ‘The gas companies will doubtless not spare means to evade an ov of their affairs. ‘They know that “their offence is rank ‘and smelis to heaven.” ‘The bill of Mr, Whalen to increase the police force of the Metropolitan district provides that the Cem- missioners may add 1,000 men to the force, with cep and feces esr iu proportion, at en hey may deem such addition is required. is giving the Police Board a wide margin of authority; but the present Somer of affairs id the city would seem to warrant Judge Campbell, of Otsego, reported a bill to-day tat tho sBaliroa Couunitiee providing aa the jority of taxpayers and taxable people in any town may bya vote juire the County Judge to ap- poimt commissioners to lay out and assess for Yailroads that they may require in their district, that official to consult the taxpayers as to the fitness of such commissioners, ‘The Broadway Rauiroad, Mr. Genet’s pet, was be- fore the Senate to-day, but no important progress was made with it, The sale of the old Arsenal on Elm street, and the constraction of @ larger edifice for a similar purpose on property owned by the city; capable of accommodating several regiments 0! multia, was the subject of a bill introduced by Mr. Kiernan to-day.

Notwithstanding the excitement which was created some time since on account of the ravages of tricht- nosis and the numerous cases of futal results from induiging in uncooked meat it appears that there are yet many who disregard the examples which have been given in this regard. That such is the case may be adduced from the fact that several per- covered to be trichinosis 18 tius described by Dr. Buck, house physician at the City Hoxpiial. On the Yist of January last e German sailor, bearing & per init [rom the Custom House, was adm to the hospital anc treaved for, wiat was supposed at first to be, typhoid ever. There were accompanying the fever in symptoms witch the physicians could not account for and suspicion was aroused to the fact that the disease iuight pe Urichtnosis, It waa determined to obtain a piece of the muscular tasue make @ microscopic examination; bat as the it Was very low and continued to sink the experiment was ed.

On Saturday iast another German satior named Kobert Campbeli was admitied to the hospital, having ‘ayinptoms pointing clearly to typhoid fever, He was treated for that disease, but on Sunday compiained severe pain in the and there was found considerable soreness in all muscular parts of the body.

The vases of Mr. Ludlam and Others=The Bite of am Angered Dog as Poisonous us That of a “Mad” Dog. It has often been said that crime, like fevers, is epidemic at glven periods, and it would seem, judg- ing from certain deaths which have occurred in this city and vicinity within the past fortnight, that almost the same thing might be said of that terrible alsease called hydrophobia, In Paterson, N. J., & gentleman named McCarthy died on Sunday after- noon from the disease, caused by a bite he received from his dogon New Year’s day. Last Monday a Mr. Ludlam died from the same disease, he having been bitten by his dog four weeks previously; and two or three other fatal cases, which cannot now be readily called to mind, have been brought to public notice since the 1st of the month. All the cases referred to, with one exception, oo- curring as they did in the winter,.bave more than Corroborated the evidence given by many learned physicians to the effect that sultry weather is no more provocative of hydrophobia than the cold months of January or February. The old super- stition about dogs going mad only while the dog star rages is left, therefore, without ground to stand upon, The case of Mr. Ludlum is rather a pecular one, and although it may not, like the other in- stances peep mneert add to the force of the argument against hydrophobia as being a disease peculiar to @ certain season of the year, it may surprise many who believe that the disease is produced solely by the bite of what is technically called a “41 if dog. It appears that Mr. Ludlam, about four weeks ago, endeavored te ih @ little dog he had for chasing a favorite chicken about his yard, and the dog not relishing the Kicks and cuéls he received turned upon his master and bit him in the hand, causing but very slight cuts, from which, however, the blood flowed quite freely. The dog, according to the evidence of Mr. Ludiam’s family, had given nO signs of madness before the occurrence alluded to, nor did he show any after Mr. Ludlam had been bitten, and they fee) confident that the animai was not mad at any time, Mr. Ludlam, it is said, knew this fact, but apprehensive and probably supersti- tous as to what might occur to him should the dog go mad after he had been bitten had the cre ature killed shortly after receiving his injanes. Ina few days the wounds healed up very nicely and no sign of any serious result made itself known unui Fri- day last, when he was seized with agit of extreme nervousness, which caused him so much misery that he sent for Dr. Peanoyer, who was one of his neighbors. Dr. Pennoyer states that on call- ing on Mr. Ludiam he perceived no indications of the terrible disease from which his patient after- wards died, but on paying him a second visit, the following morning, he became convinced that he was suffering trom hydrophobia. From the first mo- ‘ ment he had felt unwell the patient grew gradually worse, and seemed to be all the time well aware of the cause of his agonies, and even had the presence of mind to warn every person who cailed on him, as well as his family, to keep away from him, for fear of being bitten. On Saturday Dr. Pennoyer called in Drs, Alexander Hutchins und Goodwin, and the three gentlemen held @ consultation over the case, but were, unable co do anything what- ever to lessen the tortures from which the unfortunate victim labored. Chloroform was used at times, but it seemed to have no effect on the pa- tient. ‘the physicians did all in their power for him, but he gradual ly grew worse and finally so terrible were his spasins that they found it necessary to tie him wi ts upon his bed; but in his struggles he tore them mto ribbons and even broke the bed- stead upon which he was lying. It required the combined strength of six men to hold him during his struggles, and up to the time of his death the speama con med of the most violent character. e physicians state that Mr. Ludiam was perfectly conscious during the whole time, On one occasion he attempted to swallow some farina broth which Was served to him with a a. After a desperate effort to master his involuntary repuisiveness to the liquid he succeeded in throwing it down his throat after the fashion a person would thrown a glass of water against a window aud immediately exclaimed, ‘Thank God that’s down.” Drs. Pennoyer, Hutchins and Goodwin are of the opinion that the saliva which enters a wound made by the bite of an angered dog is just as poison- ous as that of what is commonly called a mad dog, and that this opinion is not founded on theory the death of Mr, Ludiam seems to be very strong proot.

Shipping Notes. ; ‘The brig Star, 814 tons, on the Erte basin sectional dock, be- longs to Mesars Revver & Hardy, of Salem. She was built at Bast Boston in 1862; is to be stripped of ber old and fur- nished with new metal sheathing. The schr Henry Clay, 118 tons, is on the dry dock foot of Gouverneur street being caulked and having her bottom painted. She was built at Perth Amboy in 1833, The brig Machias, 225 tons, of Machins, where she was built in 1858, fs on the little sectional dry dock near the foot of Rutgers slip. Judging by the appearance of her bottom {t will merely be necessary to patch ber eheath- ing. It will be mteresting to the general publicto know that the Union Ferry Company's boat Nassau, on the creat balance dry dock, near the foot of Pike sifp, is to have new timbers and new plank (copper fastened and retrenaile!) covered with heavy oak sheathing, new kelsons, hor cabins remodeled and enlarged and be oiberwise so improved as to be almost a new vessel. A recent decree issued by the Swedish government states that from February 1, 1862, the tax or inward vence, called Infartspenmigar, will cease to be collected on vessels leaving Swodish porte after having been entered from over s Waalemen.
