‘Praise every native wey deserve — THE AMERICAN DRAMA. What American Authors Have to Say About Themselves. What an Old Manager Says on the, | Same Subj<ct. Wanted—An American Author Who Has Nothing to Say Aboat His Play or Himself DALY ON DALY ET AL. New York, Oct, 24, 1874 To rus Eprror or THE HeRaLp:— Will you permit me to say that I think there is @ome inconsistency in the position occupied by a large portion of the press oi this city towara the | “American drama?’ The inconsistency lies in the | imaportanate demand for native piays, and then in ‘the systematic condemnation of such plays when | produced. li we have not an indigenous drama mow we evidently wish to foster the growth of | @ne; but we shall hardly succeed if we cut the young shoots up by the root and belabor those who are trying their best to cultivate them, 3 suomit that the only people who have en- eavored to estabush an American drama so far are the authors and the mavagers. Journalists, | and particularly dramatic critics, have not assisted | fm the work. They have, in fact, done and are now @eing their best to discourage it. Ido not believe | they are aware of the fact, but a little reflection | ‘will convince them of it, Let us take the history ef this season. “Belle Lamar’ was produced as an American drama. It was founded upon @ series @f actual occurrences in the late war Letween the North and South The characters were noticeable for traits of individu- ality, caretully studied from models living ana dead, easily recognizable and distinctly | american in type. This play was denied all claim to the utle of an American drama by the press, Decause—wark the reason!—the incidents might | Bave occurred in any otuer country besides america. It was not suMcient that they were | confessedly local; they might have taken place elsewhere, and thereiore they were not American! “The Gilded Age’’ was produced soon alter. Critics ‘were ratuer bothered here, Jor there stood “Colo- | mel Sellers,’ a true Western character. But the atuacking party were not to be repulsed Dy the gallant Colonel, and they deciared | M% still doabiul whether tuis drama were the coming American play or not, since | there was but one distinctive American type in it, It was not sufficient that the play dealt | With one subject and invoived one class; it ought | to take in every possible American characteriza- | tion in order to be truly American. Immediately | alter came *‘Moorcrott. This play is founded upon | a state of things which existed nowhere save in | the United States. The characters it presented are | to be seen every day in every part of our country. | | } i The attacking party, however, rallied in force; Mey judiciously passed over the piot in silence, for that Was unquestionably American, and fell upon the dramatis persone® with the dreadiul | ebarge that they might as well be English or | Wrench as American, As if Americans | Were creatures possessing mo characteristics | common to the rest of tne human race! | I wrote three American dramas myseli— | Divorce,” ‘Horizon’? and ‘Under the Gaslight.” | A forget what reasons the press gave for outlaw- | tng these native dramas, but they did deny them the right of American birtn and citizenship. 1 | enly recollect with pleasurable sensations the | public verdict on them. In consequence of that | Verdict these dramas wave remained in the coun- | try, with every prospect of permanent residence | nd influence. The author of “Moorcroft” has wubmitted two other plays tothe public, “Sara- toga” ana “Diamonds,” each claiming distinc:ly American characters. in addition to aramas upon American suvjects there are scores of plays vy native authors on pabjects other than those afforded by @er own country. Jonn Howard Payne, N. P. Willis, vr. Bird, J. H. Boker, George P. Mules, @haries Gayior, Jonn Savage, Mrs. Muratt, Mrs. | Bateman, Mrs. Howe and many otters have con- | tribuied to the acting drama oj tae Unitea States, Lrecite their names avd their works to show that | We have ap American drama; that vative theatri- | eal literature has its briuiant and snccessiul vVotaries; that, in fact, the tuimg asked for vy the exists, 18 growing, Wili attuin an enviable tion im the dramatic aunals of the worid, only | press does not seem to be aware o! the fact. | Autuors and managers have been steadily javoriug %0 produce tne iruit desired. The puolic have tasted and approved. The press only tas eyes and sees not. I claim for these labors of authors and managers recoguition trom the great power whicn can be #0 impaitial and so just when it 1 do not speak jor myseli as one man- r, but for ali managers in the United States wi desks are loaded with manuscripts irom American authors, and who are forced to ackuowi- edge that it 1s a dangerous experiment to produce such plays in the face of the determimed hostiity of journalists. American press writers are proud ofeverytning American except otner American Writers, it suould be the giory of the New Yor« mewspapers that tuere are New Yorkers capabie of writing plays that delight great audiences uight after night; each new effort should ve heralded ‘With pieasure and the public should be informed | that the work of estabishing a native drama ‘es progressing. Of criticism 0 one can compla.n; periection will not ve attained by indis- eriminate praise. Errors should be rigorousiy pointed out, but meri. should be as pointedly rec- egnized. ‘The dramatic critic, deal “ witn the Bative drama, forgets naif nis duty. He blazons the imperiections of the work dnd leaves tue World 10 find out its good points. This discour- ‘@ges authors, but It does worse in the case of man- agers; it is Calculated to deter them from under- taki Which entail a showeroi abuse.

The new piece will be abused by American critics, for the sake of its American paternity. He must, thereiore, ve actuated sviely by 4 desire to neip the cause Of national literature. Tne only way to get an American drama is to have American mau- agers produce the plays sent to them.

B“WARD ON HOWARD. os TO Ty» Eprron or Tux HRRALD:— I thank you most heartily for the very Kind V.ords im your editorial columns on Thursday morning. So far as tney related to the charge of @Frenca origin of “saratoga,” the anende hono- rable could not have been made with more cour- tesy aud apparent sincerity. ‘This acknowledg- Ment would have been made by me I a strictly private note had not a paragraph in your edition Of Friday renewed the former charge, distinctly calling upon me lor a public repiy. Your dramatic eaitor says :— We have the author's word for it that neither “Saratoga” bor “Moorcro.t’ is taken irom the French. We are sorry tor it, We had hoped doth were, But he insists that in the deed of duiness he nad no accomplice, Atone he did it. The critic of tue London Times, animated by kindness, sue gested that some Frenchman was to blame. We thought Mr. Bronson Howard had seen a French comedy, called—u we remember correctiy—‘Les | | Eaox.” If that ta not the piece Mr. Howard will set us right, Toe London critic evidently caugot atthe same hope; but Mr. Howard gives us his word that be knows nothing of such @ source as | “Les Eaux,” and we are voand to believe him, The French play ‘“‘Les Eaux,” nere reierred to, ‘was the origin of my controversy wit the London | Times, during the past summer, which resulted in my acquittal in England of the charge of plagiar- It is from the columns of that paper that your dramatic editor takes his bint, The words | originally used by the Times were as lollows:— “Whispers have been uttered about a piece, now forgotten, Which Was Once acted with tue sugges- tive title, ‘Les Baux.’?? In my response, | used the following language, which your own dramatic editor wiil please con- sider as now addressed to himself instead oi to the ediior o1 the London 7imes :— “As to what you have intimated about certain Mysterious ‘Whispers’ and the play of ‘Les Eaux,’ 1 can only say that this play is as unfamiliar to me as itis to yourseif, 1, lke you, have never seen or read it, but | am willing to stake my reputa- tion on the chances, Ii it happens to resemvle my play you may u-e it to sustain your charge. You say it 18 ‘forgotten ;’ advertise for some one who remembers wiere the last copy was misiaid, anithen give me the benefit of something more | than @ ‘whisper’ in the way of 80 serious a charge as that o! liierary theit.”? The editor of the Times made no effort whatever to sustain his cbarge. The paragrapn in the HERALD 18 Dut an echo, [ imagine, of this English “whisper,” aod I am not likely to get any more definite information about the “forgotten” play on this 8.de of the water. It the London editor had forgotten it no dramatic critic in this country 18 likely to rememper it. M. Scribe wrote a piece en- titled “Les Eaux du Mont-Doré,” That, however, Was a simple vaudevilie in one act, and the plot in no Way resembles that of the five act comic drama “Saratoga.” Besides, | should dislike exceedingly to intimate that the dramatic editor of the Lonaon | Times could refer to a piay by the greatest comic writer of the nineteenth century as ‘orgotten; much more would I hesitate to charge similar i alee upon a represepiative of the NEw YORK RRALD. As to what a correspondent “Boisel” says in to- day’s HERALD about a French novel ‘of very light literature,” entitled “Le Monsicur,” I have nothing to say except this:—I have never read the werk, and | cannot answer bis ques- tion as to whether one chapter therein re- sembles “the last act of ‘Saratoga’” or not. | I you, or any reader of the HEKALD, wish to charge me, herea‘ter, with imitation oi any work in Frenca, Chinese, Hindoostanee, or any other Jamiliar language, I trust the charge will pe made iu some defiuite form, aud that a description oi the work, to enlighten my own ignorance, will accom- ee, your questions and imainuations, It seems ardiy to merely ask @ question or throw out an intimation, aud then cail upon me to “prove my innocence.” I cannot hunt up foregn plays and novels at the instance of every man who cares to write a let- ter to a newspaper, or of a dramatic critic wLo does not pretend to have seen the work to which he relers in charging me with plagiarism, Ii you have the works ‘e you Vell me and the puolic exactly what the scenes or | characters are which you think I have borrowel Witnout dne recognition. In such a case 1 will meet you fairly, good naturedly and respectfuliy. I will conceal hothiug, bor resort to any subter- Tuge, and the public can decide between us, Ire# main, very truly yours, BRONSON HOWARD. Loros CLUB, Oct, 24, 1874. THERE'S MILLIONS IN IT. To Tue Eprror or THE HERAL! The great success of Mr. Raymond at Mr. Stu- art’s Park Theatre affords anotner gratifying evi- dence of the growmz popularity of the purely American stage. It is true that Mr. Raymond has shown himself a genuine artist, and created a character which will live upon the stage; buat the spirit which Mark Twain bas thrown into the play, and which breathes tnrough every line, has also done much. Toough this country is young the progress is so rapid in our era tuat the Augustan political age of Washington ana the early traditions and episodes of the Republic come down tous almost in the shape of mytho- logical associations, and the lapse of time gener- ally required for the popular dramatization of na- tional characteristics and events seems to vanish in the gian: strides and the velocity of American Progress. Yet but few attempts have been made so far to show torth American incidents with the Picturesque accessories which the stage alone can furnish, althougt the fine arts have seized upon some Oi the most briliant of them, for instance, even tn Bis condition of drunkard an attitude of refinement. The lady, Miss Kellogg, who sustain: Colonei Sellers in the serious parts ac's witn ad- mirable naturainess, and even somewhat of Rachel’ ensity, and the young lady 13 a pieas- ing stmile of the pretty U o1the period. Alto- ether there is @ unity of excellence in the per- rmance seidom witnessed on any stage. The ony two American dramas which have yet found creation are the *Octoroon” and ‘the Gilded Age.” The iormer has ail the fasti- djous finish of tts author and his clear, close dia- logue, cut with the caunimg chisel o! a literary Canova, But the latter appeals to larger and more laughing sympathies, and thi quaint humor, woich, to the American, ia a sensuall'y. ‘The danger ol'such dramas as “ip Van Winkle” and ‘Ine Gtided Age” is that they te @ great ar/ist (o the ope part, like Mazeppa to his steed, Who has not listened with aelighted smite to the many exquisite creations of Jefferson; but when you look jor them or any new emanations of his jancy the raven above the bust of Rip Van Winkie ansWets—never more, Stil, they both come in the dramatic heavens as the cross came to Constantine or the star ied to Bethiehem, the sign of @ healthier @ud holier American dram: racy Of the soll, For the drama is a teache Esto perpetua, AN OLD MANAGER. AMUSEMENTS. Italian Opera. Marchetti’s opera, “Ruy Blas,” was presented at the Academy of Music yesterday as a matinée tracuon, and it drew a very slim nouse. Tho cast Was the samo as on its first representation, Mme. Potentiol appearing asthe Queen of Spain, Miss Cary as Casiida, Signor Varpl in the title rdla, Sig- nor Del l'uente as Don Sallust, and Signor Fiorini as Don Guritano, On Monday next “11 Trovatore” will be given, with the following cast:—Leonora, Mile. Marie Heilbron; Azucena, Miss Cary; Man- rico, Signor Carpi; Di Luna, Stgnor Del Puente. Mile, Albani makes her rentrée on Wednesday in what is considered her most impressive rdle, Gilda, in ‘Rigoletto, wito Signor Tagilapietra, the new barytoue, as the unhappy jester, “La Sonnam- buia” will be repeated on Friday, and next week we aball probably bave “Mignon” and “The Mar- riage of Figaro.” ‘Lohengrin” wiil also be placed im immediate rehearsal. Signor Muzio proposes to bring out during the season, on Sunday night, at tne Academy of Music, the last great work of Verdi, the Kequiem Mass, written in memory of his distinguished compatriot, Alessandro Manzvol, with a chorus of 300 voices and an orchestra of 100 Pperiormers, The mass wili then be heard in tis entirety for the first time. Booth’s Theatre. An overfowing house last night assembled to greet Miss Cushman on her appearance as Lady Macbeth, Although novelties had been promised by the management, the chief attraction for the public was the actress whose genius makes her the central figure whenever she walks the stage. It may be well doubted, therefore, whether the Shakespearian music and the chorus of the in- evitable hundred voices, more or less, in the witch scenes, added any real attraction to the perform- ance. For our own part, we could have been con- tent toadhere to the traditional three hags, who were very much more dramatic than the crowd of chorus singers, dressed in dominos, who jostle them on the stage in the revival. If the music were of a lighter kind it might be welcomed as a relief from the intense gloom of the tragedy; but it certainly 1 not very weil calculated to do so. Its introduction nas, how- ever, the merit of being an honest endeavor to Present the great English dramatist with com- pleteness, and from tais point of view deserves applause. We may well doubt, however, whetcer those who present him just as he was are his best friends. Judicious pruning is rather an advan- tage even to so great an author as Shakespeare, The choruses were given with excellent effect, but it cannot be said to heighten in any way the aramatic effect of the tragedy. The management deserve much ¢redit for the completenes of the mise en sccne aud the general correctness of the costumes, In the role of Lady Macbeth Aliss Cush- | man has the widest scope for the display of the ex- | member Franklin crowned with flowers at the Court | ot Marie Antomette, No theme could be possibiy more tempting to the dramatist; the beautiiul and unfortunate French Queeo, ana the homely, but celebrated, American forming striking contrasts, while the brilliant life of the French Court abounds With fascinating dramatic materiat. Jefferson, as Envoy in Paris in the miast of the reign of terror; Hamilton siain by Burr, and other | Startling episodes in our early history are full of theatrical elements. What could be posaibly more so Uhan the assassination of President Lincoln by an actor in a theatre on the anniversary of the crucifixion of Christ. But the last event is perhaps too iresh to be ripe for dramatization, and ior many reasons it may be unwise and premacure, as in ‘Belle Lamar,” to | make the incidents of the civil war the theme of theatrical representation. But this does not apply to events of our eariier history. effort has yet been made in that direction, al- though those made in the pathetic and humorous line have been eminently successful, as the Rip Van Winkle oi Mr. Jeferson, and now the Coionel | Mulberry Sellers of Mr. Raymond, Mr. Stuart has shown at ail times a great desire to promote American genins and the purely Amer- ican stage, While manager of the Winter Garden he brougat out the “Octoroon,” dealing with one of the most intewesting problema of the conflict of Traces on this Continent, and which won immense populartty, He evinced his regard for American authorship by bringing out the “Leonore” of Mrs, Juiia Ward Howe, and has never spared any sacri- fice to promote and encourags native talent and a truly national theatre. In naturalizing Colonel Mulberry Seilers among the househoid gods of the American stage, Mr. Stuart has taken another step in his iifelong ambition to delve thts country from its joreigo theatri Importavions, His success 18 attested by tue mill- jvns Who resort \o the Park Theat to beara numerical testimony to Colonel Sellers’ repeated asseveration, “Lyere are millions in it.’ such tsonations, af long as they do not degenerate vo nd caricatures of living characters, ae exceedingly acceptable as portraying geueral ‘and collecuve types without being offensive to the particular dividuals or classes of society trom h they og. Mr. Raymond has created such a ty ia Colonel Mulberry Sellers, waich rds fair wo vecome as immor- tai as dam Weller or Micawber. He ts as periect aad inimitable as seilers as Mr, Jeffer- son isin Rip Van Winkie. He reacaes the climax of avoriginate grandeur in the dinner party, A poor Irishman in the last throes of starvation Would scorn to ‘east upon anything of lesser aig- nity than potatoes and water, and would ratuer aie on the spot than degrade bis stomacn to the level of caruips. Not so Sellers, He disdains potatoes as being the traditional starvation jood of the old country, and shows the originality of the new hemisphere by tustaliing the turnip on the pauper tirone of the potato. The vicissitudes of potentates fill the most thrilling pages of nistory, #ad no habitus of the poorhouses aod of the dwellings of tie lowly can witness the downiail of the potato from its time-honvred throne without au agouy of sorrow. Raymond has accomplished this great historic change and has given an immense elevation to the turnip With one mighty pound of his nistrionic genius. Not the most imaginative ot these esca- jent roots could have anticipated such a sudden degree of exaltation, not even in the boldest ta- petinas of its most ambitious fibres, Even Barney yiiuama will nave to take to turnips now. fis ext great hit is in revealing his scheme of replen- ishing his fortane vy inventing 4 remedy tor the cure of the sore eyes Of 400,000,000 of Higdoos and negotiating @ loan of ten cents pending the realization oc hia great project, Sellers creates throngNout the play a ceaseless matter of merriment, wake presenting a faithful tyne of charecier peculiagy American, aud prese Hardly any | | Spain | nature. tensity and vigor shonid survive at the Close 01 @ | cellence of her method. There is a spontaneity and electric sympathy in her manner which in- clines us to jorget that it is but an illustration of that highest art which conceals the art andim- | poses on the audience the belief that what they see ig the outcome simply of nature. There ts in | her conceptions of passion a boldness and freeaom that awes by its intensity. The effect is due to the majesty of her action and admirable delivery. Every line 1s repiete with thought, and bears witness to the ripe intelligence of the actress. Her conceptions, too. have something grandiose in them, and are stamped with @ creative power of no ordinary It appears wonderful that so much in- long career. But the truto 15 time has dealt lightly with the great tragedienne, aud what ever ravages he has committed have been more than repaired by the maturity of intellectual power which has resulted from wide and constant study. The great secret of Miss Cushman’s suc- cess 18 due to the fact that she never ceased to be astudent in the best sense of the term, it would be well if our younger actresses who aspire to fill her place would re- this, for no amount of natural talent can replace the culture and learning, with- out which none can hope to acquire permanent fame on the stage. The converse of this proposi- tion 1s Hiustrated by Mr. George Vandenhoff, whose Macoeth displayed much more jearning than power. His method has the favor of the old sock sud buskin school, and ap- pears to us cold and iormal. it altogether tails to excite sympathy, though the reading can- Dot fail to attract attention, Mr. Warde, on the other hand, displayed 4 warmth an passion in the part of Macduff whicu won for him the applause of the immense audience. This actor has a very bright iuture before him, His voice is remarkably sweet, flexible and sympathetic. Its tones go directly to the heart, and excite sympatny, while his manner 1s bold and striking, Without any marked tendency to exaggeration, It only needs some role to jailin bis Way which will allow him to use these qualities to the best advantage to secure him a jeading place among the actors | of the day. Iudeed, a goodly numver of tne stars nave made fortunes with abilities not at all equal to bis, Of the rest of the cast lite can be said. The company, with- out being strong, is eMfcient, and tnat is all that is needed. Mr. Connolly, the musica! direcvor, de- serves much credit for his admirable and appro- priate selection of music. Miss Cushman wiil continue to appear as Lady Macbeth during the ensuing week. On Saturday evening next “Guy Mannering” will be put upon the stage. It is probable, however, that one of Shakespeare’s plays will be produced jor the last night o! Miss Cushman’s engagement, SHIPPING NEWS. OCEAN STEAMSHIPS.
