In many respects the two projects differ, but thetr strange snalogy consists in the fact that now, as under M. Thiers, the government is re- solved to organize a supreme power, meets tho Same adversaries, and is confronted by an irri- tated Right, which will not allow it to effect that organization, and witheut which the Duke de Brogile is said to have declared that he will not remain in office.” Ministerialist Policy of MacMahon.

Weadvise you to continue the truce to partisanship for some years; but you MUSt grve tho Prosident moana for tha protaction and reassurance of society and commerce.” The report goes on to describe the new chamber, which is to be calied “The Grand Council,” and the members of which are to recetve no salary. When the Duke de Broglie concluded the reading of the report there were renewed protests from the Lett, Amid a scene of wild excitement the bill was then read and referred to the Committee of Thirty.

AMUSEMENTS. Booth’s Theatre. Mr, John McCullough appeared last night ina new role, and, notwithstandiug the unfavorable state of the weather, a large audience came to- gether, Richelieu has long been a favorite rdle with tragedians, There are in it passages Of great power, and plenty ofacope 18 afforded for the dis- Play of origimality and the utmost subtlety of dramatic expression. Mr. McCullough’s conception of the part is marked through- out by @ strength that is well in keep- ing with our notions of the great Cardinal. His deciamation 1s fivished, and he improves every opportunity ior oratotical display, The imper- sonation gives proof of careful study and presents & most satisfactory picture of the great French ruler, It is somewhat fortunate for bir. McCul- lough that the interest of the play centre: most whotly in himself, as the rest of the cast, are simply thrown in to fll up the picture. Yet so skiliully has the web oi the plot been woven that this Pecultarity does not obtrude herself, Nothing has been omitted in piacing “Kkichelieu” on the stage to invest it with interest. The interiors are richly ornamented and caretully studied, so much 80 a8 to give @ wonderiul realism to the scenes, This, joined with the lorcible interpretation oi the title réle by Mr. McCullough, creaced a most tavor- able effect on the large and intelligent audience, who gave repeated evidences of tueir satisfaction. Mr. McOullough aiter every act was called be.ore the curtain. Brooklyn Theatre. There was a large audience at the Brooklyn Theatre last evening, notwithstanding the unin- viting condition of the atmosphere without. The admirable comedy of Bulwer, “Money,’’ was per- formed, Frank Roche, whose benefit it was, taking the part of Alired Evelyn and Mra. F. B, Conway the rdle of Clara Douglas. The entire company appeared in the cast, At the conclusion of the fourta act the bénd was called before the curtain, and Mr, Arthur Crooks, stepping forward trom one of the boxes, presented in 4 gracetul speech a beautiiul medal to Mr. Roche, The recipient received the tribute, and in a feeling and appropriate speech expressed his thanks. ‘The medal te in the form of @ double star, the largest bordered with crimson enamel and en- graved gold. The smaller, or elevated star, 1s pointed with blue enawel; in the centre 1s a per- fect sapphire, surrounded with diamonds of the finest quality. Standing out in bold reltef, encir- cling the whole, is the motto:—‘“Palmam qui merutt ? (Let him that has won bear the palm), The whole is connected by a bar of gold, richly engraved, and suspended from a clasp orna- mented with the emblems of ‘Tragedy, Comedy, Mu- sic and the Drama, ‘the weight of the jewel is about turee ounces, On the reverse 18 the inscription, “presented to Frank KRocue by his Srooklyn friends on his third annual benefit at the Brookiyn ‘Theatre, May 15, 1874.” e ‘Walter C. Lyman’s Readings. The success of Miss Cushman and Miss Neilison in Treading shows the popularity of this most intel- lectual and refined character of entertainments. Many of our best people, who have scrupies about the theatre, or who feel, perhaps, that the real in- terest in @ great poem like “Hamlet” or “Faust” is deadened by the dramatic action and the imper- Iection of many of the minor actors, fiud abun- dant enjoyment in the reading of the piay by a tramed, intellectual reader. Mr. Walter U. Lyman, who will read on Monday evening, has gained great celebrity as a reader, as well as a teacher of elocution, and his programme will be sure to at- tract a very large audience. Musical and Dramatic Notes. Offenbach is writing a new operetta, to be called “Mamselle Bagatelle.” A good name for all his works. A London critic deservedly rebukes the harle- quin-like method of conducting an opera indulged in by Signor Vianesi, Covent Garden. Tne Czar proposes to pay a visit to the Syde n. ham Crystal Palace, England, on Tuesday next. A grand concert will be given bya dozen of tne crack military bands of the British army and a chorus of 2,000 singers. “AYda” bas been produced at the Royal Opera House, Berlin, with Mallinger, Brandt, Niemann and Betz in the principal roles. Wachtel is en- gaged for the fall at the Friedrich-Wilhelm’s Theatre, so that his American tour must be post- poned. Amost interesting event will take place this month in St. Petersburg in the production of a brand-new native opera. The Russians reserve the | rights of its representation exclusively for them- selves, as its title is “Opritschniki ly isarkoffsky.”” It differs materially from the Italian school. PERSONAL INTELLIGENCE. Meridian (Miss.) has an alderman named Hogs- head. Pere Hyacinthe is seeking @ new dwelling place fn Germany. Professor M. C. Vincent, of London, is at the St, Nicholas Hotel.

General Joe Shelby, of Missouri, yearns for a fight and has tendered @ brigade to Arkansas Brooks. Major Henry Court recently died in Berkshire, England, where he bad been @ magistrate for forty-seven years, Ex-Governor Seymour 1s not popular with Wis- consin grangers. He declines to deliver the an- nual address at their fair. Colonel Innis N. Palmer and Captains William Hawley and L. H. Carpenter, United States Army, The Duke de Penthiévre having been admitted ito the French Navy asa Lieutenant, has been de- spatched to the naval division in Chinese waters. Count von Arnim has finally retired from the German embassy at Paris. Before leaving he wrote ®@ long explanatory ietter to Dr. DUllinger in Munich. The Marquis de Noailies, the French Minister to Rome, is very much liked in Rome. His eyes, however, are weak and he is forced to lead @ very Tetired life. Governor Seymour authorizes the Utica Observer to announce that he is out of the race tor Gov- ernor, and ‘refuses to be a candidate for any office in the gift of the people.” A pretty Georgia girl will soon make the lips of Washington tingle. She is going to lecture on “Kisses. Alexander Stephens will introduce her, and ashe is not handsome he may saiely be se- lected for the illustration of her subject. THE WEEKLY HERALD.
