LEMOINNIER of the Paris Jatin declares that the whole duty of a dramatic critic is to give to the public, not his own private opinion of a play and its performance, but the opinion of the audience. One or two New York editors have this same idea; but it is wrong, or else the box-office is the sole criterion, ONE GOOD TERM DESERVES ANOTHER. HAMILTON'S inauguration cartoon speaks for itself, as a good cartoon ought todo. Well, it has a happy subject. This is a full dinner- pail inauguration, and the contented smile upon the face of the chief who in triumph advances honestly reflects the general expression of this whole broad land. JUDGE is in the procession, too, and hopes to keep nght along with it for at least four years more. EARLY AND OFTEN. EX-SHERIFF JAMES O'BRIEN charges that in 1865 Richard Croker was the head of a gang of repeaters and voted fourteen times in one day for William J. Lynan, who was running for constable. Mr. Lynan himself says the ex-sheriff_ is in error—that it was seventeen times, instead of fourteen, that Croker voted for him that day. And yet some people have accused old “ Dick” of shirking his duty as an American citizen. A BAD EXAMPLE FOR TUSKEGEE. HILIP V. FITHIAN, whose journal of colonial times has just been published, was a student at Princeton college in 1772, when he wrote home from that seat of learning as follows: “Tam sorry that I may inform you, that two of our Memibers were ex- pelled from the Col- MT Ny! i tay ti HN \ THAT FLORIST who is advertis ing “rubber-plants for bath- rooms" should pause and reflect a mo- ment, SER has been the cure at Vichy, and writes home to the boys that he is feeling fine and vicious.

RICHARD MANSFIELD offers the very pertinent suggestion that Mr. Carnegie should lop off a few libraries from his list of benefactions and endow a theatre “ which should be all that men of artistic hopes have longed for and aspired to create.” INISTER WU (whose own birthday anniversary falls somewhere about Saint Patrick's day) says that although Washington, Lincoln and Li Hung Chang were born in February, it does not follow that alt men born in other months are bad. . James GANNON, who has been in jail six years at Scranton, Pennsyl- nia, for contempt of court, complains bitterly because the authorities are trying to drag him out and set him at liberty.

CHICAGO'S GREATNESS. se] SHALL NOT LEAVE until I have seen what makes Chicago so great,” de- clared Madame Sarah Bernhardt on the occasion of her recent visit to the city of wind. What was it she wished to see? Was it Mayor Carter Harrison? Was it the university—the Chicago river—the saloon of Bath- house John, the poet alderman, author of “Dear midnight of love" Heinege Budler’s—or Cyrano de Cornville Gross, without whose aid Rostand couldn't have written a thing? No; none of these wonders, nor all of them combined, were regarded by the illustrious tragedienne as being the true source of Chicago's greatness. wave of the hand, “ Drive me to ze stoc fast JOY FOREVER. my new wife up fer to have her pictur’ took.” Full length or bust?"

PREPOSTEROUS at first sight seemed the recent news paragraph to the effect that a cast from the original death mask of Napoleon Bona- parte, taken at St. Helena, had been rescued from an ash-barrel in Plain- field, New Jersey. Yet such was the literal fact. ‘The identity of the mask is clearly established and accounted for by its having been at one time in the private art-collection of the late Mr. Spooner, to whom it had descended directly from Jerome Bonaparte, brother of the great Napoleon,,and who, as every one knows, was for some years a resident of New Jers is a pretty close call to actual exemplitication of Shakespeare's couplet : Here famous ~ Imperiat Cxrsar, dead and turned to clay.
