Anna Dickinson who has assumed he role of Anna Boloyn in her own play of the Crown of Thorns has taken up arms against the host of critics who pronounce her a failure. Hero is how she unburdened herself to a New York World reporter a few days since: "I would rather play before a Now York audienco than any other aucli% once in the country. It is composed of old playgoers. They have scen everything; they know how to coin pare and appreciate, and consequent ly are larger-n)inded and more gene rous than a provin1citl audience. As for the New York papers, they did not let me go forth to find my level, and climb if I could. On the contrary, they diggod me a pit, put 1me( in it, pulled up the ladder, and left me to get out the best way I could. I was told that I was ugly, thatI was awk ward, that I was middle aged. Now I never was a raving beauty. Indeed, there is no one more conscious of her personal defects than I. I became so sensi tive after those unkind things which were spread from one end of the country to the other, that when I came to go before my audiences I was filled with horror. On present ing myself to them I would say to myself, 'you must do it,' and literal ly would lift myself up by the hair of my head and set myself down before the footlights as Anna Boleyn. You have probably seen a lot of rubbishing stuff about my love scenes? And you do not take kindly to them perhaps. Naturally I am not a' demonstrative person, but on the stage I am not Anna Dickinsone-I am Anna Boleyn." If I do not take kindly to having a man's armi around my waist, on the stage, I certainly expect to do all that is required of me ii love-mak ing. But even the actors have heard so much of this thing that they think Miss Dickinson is a touch.me-not, and scarcely meets the actual demands of the stage and with about as much passion as is in that claret-bottle. Now, as to the charge that I am middle-aged. When you have made a woman an antiquity, all is said. It is certain that I am not as young as I was ten years ago, and of course not so at tractive, but I am not a middle aged woman. It is unfortunate, it seeis, that I went into publio life s young. I have a marked persou ality, certain movements, ways of using my hands, and peculiarities which are a part of my identity. Now, if I were another person they would be part of my stock in trade. As for me, having so thoroughly travorsed the country, every man, woman and child has become so familiar with my ways that whon they see me on the staga they oec claim, 'Oh, that's Anna Dickinson ; it's her voice ; that is the way she always used her hands'-and that they recognize inc is assumed as an indication that I cannot act-I am still Anna Dickiplson. And the critics have made thme most of this. I am smi:e I would succeed for this reasoni better with an audlience to whom I was entirely unknown." "1)o you think of going to Eng land?" "Mr. Mills, an Englishman, on the Globe-1)emocrat at St. Louis, s[poke to me of that. Ho said I would succeed far better with an audience which is not always comn.. parinlg me with myself. "But my play ! Ah, I am not a bit modest about my play. I know it is a good play, and it has borne the test. Wherever I have .staid a week my audiences have increased steadily to the last. Yet the critics damned my play last spring as heartily as they did me. So, per haps, they have made a mistake even about me. But I have had to amplify all the speeches. Tihe play Monlday night is in many respects new." "You have another play, have you not ?" "Yes; but I do not know that it will be brought out now. Of course, a manager wants a play to run as long as it will." "Have you any objections to tell,~ ing anything of the other play?1" "Yes, except this: it is a society play-a play of to-day-and a come dy. Ithink I will p lay comedy better than tragedy. I have had it proposed to me to play in several standard plays) and possibly I will." It is stated that a prominent fea ture of the Democratic policy in the coming session of Congress will be the prosecution of ex-Socretary Robeson for alleged mrisappopria tioni of the fnnds of the Navy Do-. GENEtAL GOSSIP. A bill forbidding pool selling hag passed the Now' York Senate. The proclamationl convening the extra sessipn of Congregs is being prepared. Chattanooga is to have a supply of pure water from a cave in Look out Mountain. Flour has taken a tronendous julmp upward in consequence of thq European war news. Two young girls in Cincinnati hired a room in a hotel, aid con mitted suicide. No cause is assign ed. Russia has made a contract with a Maine factory for a quarter of q million dollars' worth of po*dor. A very large panther was killed in the woods near St. Augustine, Flori, da, a few weeks ago. The public printer has notified the postmaster-general that the appropriation for printing postofficQ blanks is exhausted. The Louisiana Commissionorq have made a report to the Prsi dent. They are satisfied with the result of their mission. The populatiol) of Maine ba do creased sixteen thousand since the census in 1870. The falling off is largely due to emigration to tlig West. President Hayes will not lereaftej announce the appointnlent of a postmaster until he forwards the commission. This is to prevent trouble from contending aspirants. With regard to the solieitor of the treasury the 1epublican fays: "It seems now that the announcement of the change in the solioitorship of the treasury was a lttle prema ture." Mr. Hayes is glad . o know that Georgia is getting .long so well. This is good news for a people who gave nearly eighty thousand majori ty for Tilden. China furnislhe much labor to this, country, and nine hundred and fifty. cases of small-pox at one shipment will give a general tone to the, market in San Francisco and raise, the price of healthy vaccine. The Black Hills were a barren, waste two years ago. But they found gold there ; and now it is proposed to form a new territory of it called "Lincoln." The population is rapidly increasing. Secretary Thompson,, of Hayos' Cabinet, has been interviewed and states authoritatively that the object of the Administration is to found a, Whig Republican party that will destroy the other two. A fire last week destroyed a por tion of the office of the New York Journal of Comnnerce, the fIlea since 1828, and a valuable library. 'The loss of these files is irreparable as they contained the only complete chronicle of events in the commer cial world for nearly fifty years. The Louisiana case has been defi - nitely settled. Nicholls supplies the hungry Legislature out of the con tingent fund, and Hayes gives Packard his pork and beans in the New Orleans Custom House. All is wvell that ends wvell. Some time ago, Mr. Gunn, of Georgia, who is a stone cutter, bought a picce of land. On that land was an immense quantity of what had been considered granite, but it proves to be the finest black or gray marble.' The sttpply is in - exhaustible. The State of Georgia has sold the' labor of the convicts in its State prison for $25,000 a year, which is at the rate of about $11la year for each convict. The State appears to have been badly swindled, as the contractors are now successfully "sub--letting" the convicts at $60 a year apiece. Secretary Thompson said recently. in answer to a question as to what would have been the result of a recognition of Packard and Cham borlain: "I can scarcely conceive the result of such a course, but think it would have resulted in long confusion, a military government, and, perhaps, in the end, anarchy. In regard to the President's South-~ ern policy, I do not think he could have pursued any other course con.' sistent with his own promises and dignity of character. I think his ichy is right in itself. The re-. moval of troops was absolutely es.. enil to th Nio.nec
