What ffIlade a Minister Laugh.
"Well, brethren," Field a Maine minister
to some of his fellow -evangelists, , " I never
was guilty of laughing in the pulpit but
once. Some years ago I had in rey-congre.
gation an old man who universally went to
sleep in church and snored' very loudly
throughout the whole service. One Sabbath
raornieg, glaucing in his direction, I EttliW
him enjoying a nap, and right above him
in the gallery it young man was 'rolling a•
large quid of tobacco around in his ,mouth.
As I looked he took it and poised ,it care-.
fully over the open mouth below. -I
became so interested in the proceedings
that I forgot to cantata -lie the sermon, but
stood watching the young man. With is
wicked smile be took careful aim and
dropped it squarely into the old man's
mouth. " With a gull:pep lp the sleeper
started up and, it face as red as it beet,
rushed frona the house. The pepple np
doubt washorrilied, but I could not have
kept from laughing if it sword had bung
over my head ready to fall. The old roan
did not come for several Sundays, and
when he did he changed his seat and re-
mained wide awake.' '

_LeeThis new and thrilling drama was
played for tea first time at the opera house
• last night, after a run of one consecutive
night in Harlem, to an inamense audience.
• The drama i3 founded on stirring incidents
which were unusually interesting about
twenty years ago, and would be
interesting yet but for oue reason -
they are not. It 'is very sad, but
it is a fact. The prinoipel characters in
the play are some inoffensive bloodhounds,
and it very savage donkey. The denkey
chases it colored lady:adross a river full of
iee and water, but she encceeds in getting
previous and making the fierce pursuing
'animal quit subsequent. The ice is not
real, but the blood -hounds and colored
lady are very life -like. Uncle Tom is a nice
old dlolored man, with a VOiCe like it bass-
epinger in a coal hole_and_a_seate_oLintoxi..
cation.. The heroine is a very dizzylittle
girl named Eva, who becomes too fly for
her years, • and goes • up in the
flies in the third act and a state of feli-
city. le is said theatre managers charge
_troupes playing this drama double rent,
beoause everybody cries so much- that 'the
cerpets are ruined. It ill'a :vary eleVating
drains, and eornewhat cheerful in some
parts, especially that part when the curtain
goes down on the last act. The eaters
have played their parte so often that they
die very naturally. Some CritICS seyethat
the /reddest part of the play is the thought -
that the actors donot really die. Uncle
Tont is not really a colored man. He was
born in Ballynaslough, county Kerry, -and
is therefore a German, but he has the
dialect down fine and keeps up hie end."
