Aa It Is, bowever, kwUng tiack npon tbe record of the \ag- txrak, and flndlng therein a measnre or sacceaa fkr exceeding dnr most sangnlne expectations. It Is only natural that our long To;age should seem eminently pleawnt. Inasmach as The CLTrrzi^ does not jnake a tioeor sounding ItSioVn prelflc^'it moj the 'more readily be pardoned for talking aboat Itaelf on ex- ceptional occasions. This lieslnnlng of a new tdI- mne furalshes ancta an occasion. That we aie--dn- cerely thankful for the favoring vrlnds that have car- ried OS Into tbe port of propperity we cheeifuilj acknowledge; but that we regard our success as wholly or mainly doe to fortiMtonB clrcomstsnces Is not true. Clicomstanoea are a result quite aa often as a cause. That pleasant record of the lug-book has not come thningh good luck alone. It haa been written largely with the pen of honest effort dipped In the Ink of unwavering patience. The Cutpkb did not glide at once Into the placid waters of snc- cesa, bot was guided there throngti tempestootiB seaa, and after breasting the Btormi of advetM lUe. Pluck and energy and perseverance -were needed to keep the vessel In ber course, and it is morally cer- tain that without these qualltlesahe woold have gone to pieces on the rocks of disaster. The success which has attended her ctrUae baa, pertiapm been due moie to this one teot than.-to any other— Tbb Cuppbb bas never lost sight of the purpoae for which it waa originally founded. It la tbU holding fast to a well-deflned aim that compels sncceaa. We entered a Held which had never before been occu- pied by »as Journal In this country, and for twenty- six years we have been content to labor In that field. At Omt there were not vrontlog ihose who confidently informed us that the soil we ondertook to cifltlTate was shockingly barren, that at best nothing but this- tles could be forced to grow, and that we would have our labor for our pains. Afterwards, wlien a modeiat e harvest began to be reaped, and some uf tbe tblsUea had turned Into golden grain, there C4me a small army of laborers Into the fleM to help In tilling this same unproductive solL As, In the case of those who prophesied fUlure, we thanked them and went atmut our woric, so when otbeni came to share In the IMts Of the field we bad opened up we never sought by Uhmably means to Injure tliem. If, at this riper age, they can look back opon tbelr efforts with as much gatlsbctlon as we do upon ours, it will cause ua not a twlDge of envy. On the contrary, we staafl re- joice In their protipcrlt;, Just as It would pleaK us to believe that they rejoice now la ouni. The time has long pa-ssed when anything Uko an apology was needed fur the C-Ylsicnce of this paper. Tbe objects to which It 13 especially devoted have emeiged nom that onjiut shadow Into which they weie cast by oarrow-mlnded bigotry. Xo htw of to- daly makes the actor a vagabond or the attilete a ruiuan. The. stage stands forth as an Instmment of civilization, recognized not only as a necessity, but also as a benefit: The Tttlmages and Agnews of our time may bray a little more now and then, but they do absolutely no harm, because they utteriy Ihll to renect public sentiment. As for the wlde-epread popularity which all outdoor sports enjoy, the tkct, we think. Is to be accounted fur on the theoty that common sense has Incteased amazingly of late. Else why do even cor strictest preacheta and onr gravest eollege-prafesson) often countenance and Bometlmea openly advocate those veiy sports which were once so openly coudemed? Xo; The Cup- per nee<ls no apology for Its existence. It U tbe recognized organ of the dramatic profes- sion, as It la tbe earnest promoter of all man Ij sports. For. mote than a wore of yean it has labored unceasingly to advance tbe Inter- eats of the stage, and at the same time to oilng ath- letic games Into wider public favor. How far Its efforts have t>een soceessftil we must leave for othen to decide. In the fonbcomlng volume It will be the aim of the editor, aa It has always been In the past, to make the' contents of tbe paper accurate, trust- worthy and entertaining. Beyond this simple state, ment we have no prellminaiy aimoiucements wherewith to startle our readers. The policy of promising great things has never been adopted in this ofllce. So far as It lies within our power, the twenty-seventh volume of The Cuppeb shall In no respect fall below the standard of Its predecessors. We may even entertain some Ideas aa to mawng it superior to any of the previous volumes; but If we du, we prefer to cany out those Ideas qoletly. In the full belief that all Improvement will be promptly ap- preciated. It may be safely ossmned that the caigo on the current voyage will be selected with as mnch care as In tbe past, that It will be as varied In Its character, and that Its weekly delivery -will continue to be onr pleasantest. If most exm-tlng, duty. In every department which has come to be a featnre of the paper the same thoroughness and accuracy wUl be maintained as beretofoie. Strict Impartiality In dealing with all questions, entire neeaom Itom per- sonal prejudice, and a sincere deabe.tovtvance those intetests wblcb It advocates will, as In tbe past, dlsUngnlab tbe paper. With a bomptete sommaiy of theatric events and all sbownetn^'there will be foimd the freshest Intelligence boncenilng baseball, pedestilanlsm, tbe torf, the oar, and ,gll other out- door sports. Billiards, chess and checkers wUl not be neglected; and these solid meats of the cargo wU be sea8onal)Iy spiced wldi fiction, poetry, and editor- ial discussions. Success Is always pleasant. Pettaps that Is why the futnre of Tbe CurrcB never seemed to us more fUll of promise than it does to-day. Buoyantly she sails forth upon her twenty-seventh aimual voyage. 80 many are the friends that crowd her deck, we cannot hope to muster them alL Bhe Is manned by a larger crew than ever before, and one, perfaapst better fitted to make her sail her prettiest- If slie does that, she will not, we hope, disappoint hi.r thonsands of well-wlsbers.

Bad dW'':vlcilm of this hnitai and cow- ardly assault tieen as greata rufflan aa his mttrderer, the manner of his destb most stm have aroused pnl>- Uc Indlgnatton. As It la, instead of a rufflan, he was one of the moat 'widely popniar men In his profes- sion; so that his nntlmely Ihte has naturally excited Intense feeling, not only of resentment towards tbe murderer, but of sympathy for the Ikmlly and friends of tbe dead actor.. From all the teiwrts that have reached as of this most deplorable event. It appears that there was not a shadow of an excuse far the attack made by the desperado. It was a oold-blooded, anprovoked. oowanlly murder. Nor could any human' fbnalght bave averted, apparently, the Hlwyklng oectmence. Mr. Porter did not thrust himself Into danger. He did not Invite a qoaneL On the contrary, beseems to have done all that he could honoiably do to pie- veni a ooUIstoa with the rimian, whUe'he still sought to stand by hla- 'ilend Mr. Banymore, and .to. pro- tect tbe lady lipder their charge. If the patty bwl Seen In convtdil mood, U tberehad been boisterous hilarity demonstiatlons of any kind to attract the attention of omen; we can imderstand how the man Conle might bave been prompted to pass comment upon-the n^ranfleni; but aa It wa^ Ur: Fbri«r ahd his friends conducted themselvea with the strictest pro- priety, and, even after Currie had begun hla abusive attaok, did tbelr ntmoat to prevent the fatal Issue. It la natural, although perhaps nseless, to denotmce such 'wretches as this Carrie, and to exhaust the Eng- lish vocabolaiy In describing the bmtallly of tbelr na- tures. It Is eqiaUy natural, and by no means useless, to demand, lit Ol^niM^ that speedy punishment shall follow the crime; and tjiat the law shall be Invoked to Its fullest extent In bringing the criminal to Juatlce, If any lesson Is to be diawn from tbe tragedy, It Is one of warning. It Is a lesson for the public nther than for the profession. Time and again baattils Journal called attention to tbe Insults and groas mls- repiesentalluns to which women of the stage are subjected. The opinion seems largely to obtain, and that, too, athong many otherwise Intelligent persons, that the private aiDilis of an actress are as legitimate a matter for criticism as her elocution and acting. In other words, no distinction Is drawn between the artist and tbe woman. Between strictures upon ber Lady Teazle and praises of her Juliet we find sand- wiched an account of domeatlc troubles, or doubtful alliances, or personal peculiarities. All this Is as un- just as itIspemlutouM. Tbe moment tbe actress steps fTomthe stage and assumes the character of a private lady, she should no more be made the object of crit- icism than any other private lady. Her art Is sometlilng which the public has a right to dlscnas; hot her personal affhlts, so long as she does not her- self obtrude them opon the worid, sboald be held inviolate. It Is b«r pilsroitone, If you piewe, that Bbe most exett herself oh the stage to satisfy all rlamifn wbo pay their money to kc and bear ber; bot It is ber glory that, when she stepa off tbe stage and assumes her own character, she may bold bersdtf aloof IVom all poUotlng assoclatloua This la the Ihct which Currie and other radians of his stamp should be made to understand. In tils own coarse and vulgar way the Uatsball desperado availed himself of what, no doubt, he regarded as a lawlul privilege—the right to lusnll an actress. Others of a- trine finer grain would have offered tbe Insult differently, perhaps by a brazen stare, perliaps by an inslnuutlan, rather than naked speech. But the motive would have been the same. In either case. It would have been the duty of a gentleman to protect the lady under hLi charge from such giatultons insult. Here, tbeo, Is the lesson of Ihe trage<ly. In at- tempting to afford such protection, Ben Porter paid the penalty of bis life. He was shot down by a drunken desperado, wbo could not have harbored any ill will against a man be had probably never seen before—shot down because he presumed to question Mr. James Currie's tight to Insult a lady. Mr. James Currie, it la to be hoped, will learn before long that the ladles uf the stage are not proper subjects for at- tacks by rufilans of his class. LtlSOTICI. a very high tt fortosea.
