NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBEK 41, 1870.— ‘KIPLE SHEER Prussia will occupy the French capital and en give France the opportunity, free and trammelled in any way, to elect her govern- We are encouraged in this opinion by desponding language of M. Trochu, who after Bismarck, the master of France, the government which France may fehoose, be it republican or Orleanist or Bona- t, Prussia will make a treaty and abide by it, This explains the attitude of Prussia fo-day, and what sensible man dare say that he attitude is Dlameworthy? Peace, it is is now a necessity for France. [Peace is desired by Germany. But Germany pannot retire from French soil without national osrantees. Jae Porvration of Broox.yy.—The pensus in Brooklyn has been completed, and ows an aggregate of 396,661 population as @ result. Ovmparing this with the census of 860 we find that Brooklyn has increased her mbers by one hundred and thirty thousand within the last ten years, and nearly two undred and forty-six thousand since’ 1850. is a highly enconraging exhibit for the [ittle village that has the good fortune to be 1 chief suburb of the metropolis, and no one congratulate.our handsome neighbor on er rapid increase more heartily than New ‘orkers, since, in truth, a great portion of inerease is to be attributed to the habit New Yorkers have of going to Brook- yn to sleep. Tue Doyonvg Murper, for it will probably Yesult in murder as Donohne lies apparently jn a very precarious condition, was the result ef a political feud which has already brought about one murder, The man Scannel, who is joharged with the deed, had attempted to Kill Donohue once before, when Donohue ‘was acquitted of the murder of his brother Florence. For this attempt he was merely put under bonds to keep the peace, when he Bhould have been tried for an assault and com- mitted until his desire for vengeance on an Innocent man had cooled. As it is, political considerations are not likely in the present aspect of politics in this city to interfere with the strictest punishment which justice may mete out to the guilty man.

Lina Epwin’s THEATRE.—At this charming little eatre the burlesque of “Black-Ey'd Suzing” still ps its place upon the bill, coupled, tor the first time on Monday night with the farce of “Camille.” Black-Ey'd Suzing, in the person of Miss Lina awin, apparently maintains a good position in popular favor, and 1s nightly encored in the songs which occasionally enliven the, picce. Mr. Robson, ps tne fat Captain Crosstree, 1s also a brilliant puccess; while Miss Emma Cline as Wililam and Mr. Parsloe as Lord High Admiral deserve a ‘word of praise. ‘“Uamilie,” however, short as tt ia, $s the great feature of the bill. It is a parody on the well known “Traviata,” and affords a good oppor- tunity tor Mr, Stuart Robson to display his peculiar wers in the delineation of a broken-heurted and ughted maiden. The closing scene, in which Camille dies in the arms of Armand, 1s especially good. There can be no doubt that the farce will in & good | nights, and it will certainly stand the severest tes Of really amusing acting—a second visit. Woop's Mustum—“‘As You Like Ir.""—Tnis splen- fla comedy of Shakspeare was on Monday evening brought upon the stage at this house for the first time this season; and ff one may judge from this first performance it promises to have gn excelient run, Mr. Wood appears to have Bpared no expense in the getting up of the play, the Greases and the scenes being elegant without being gaudy and tiring, and altogether the play only Fequires to be seen to be appreciated by the public. Mrs, Scott-Siddons shone forth as the special favorite as Rogalind—this being the piece in which phe excels—and deserved in great part the numerous tokens of approval which were accorded her by the pudience during the performance. It cannot be paid, however, that she has quite lost that undue atheticism, if the term may be allowed, to which ue Is prone; she has all the finesse and accomplish. mnents of the stage, and her attractive persona ap- Dearance is greatly in her favor; but there is Blightiy too much pachos in rendering. Shakspeare’s jays do not bind down to technicalities, and Mrs. Biavons mnay osrtainiy allow herself a tris more of the natural without infringing upon the spirit of this play. Yhe same ‘may be said of Miss Alice Logan. Her movements ure graceful and her acting gave general satisfaction; but she aiso may adhere more stricily to nature without fear of spoiling her part, Mr. Charles Thorne, as Orlando, did weil, and his renderiug of the part of the lover im the jorest of Ardennes to the supposed youth Ganymede (Mrs. Siddons) was weil sustaiued and applauded. The various other actors are entitled to credit also. The scenes, painted by Mr. Eyres, are exceedingly appropriate, and the close proximity of the colors to nature in the lorest scene entitle him to credit. Altogether Mr. Wood and Mr. Barnes, the manager, may feel satisfied with their uuder- taking, aud rest assured that the pubiic will be abie to judge of and appreciate the entertainment so weil brought forward, PARK THEATRE, BROOKLYN.—Mr. Robert McWade, an actor who comes from the West and Southwest with considerable reputation, made lus first ap pear- ance at this theatre on Monday evening In a version pf “Rip Van Winkie” writtea by himself. The cosey ite theatre was crowded in every part by a critical gudience, who were very favorably impressed with the new comer, and rewarded hia efforts in the flelineation of the dificult character of the worth- Jess and drunken Rip with frequent applause. Mr. McWade’s version differs in very many respects [rom that of Mr. Joseph Jefferson, his rival, gud adheres more to the original story pf Washington Irving. Mr. McWade's dialect is very good, and his delineation of the character was strict accordance with the ideal Rip, as See trkyedl by tHe great author, The support was ery good. Ni to the worthiess Rip tne interest of the iudience Wentred on Dame Van Winkle, wnich character was personated by Mrs. Anne Llewellyn, who divided the applause with Mr, McWade, ir. Chippenaale, as Knickerbocker; Mr. Mark Bates, gs Leopold Von Hector; Mr. J. w.
