There is, poeeibl), nothing wonderful ur startling in all tbia, yet auceeavin any of tbe profeaaton of life ia always plena ant to oonder. Thin, therefore, ie my xcuee for a brief aketcb of the life of ooe of tbe moat euooeaaf ul comedian of tbe day. A day or two since I bad tbe pleasure of meeting Mr. Vincent at hi ruomt at (be Hotel Lincoln and panned a with hour conversing delightful him regarding hie own life and the life .if other succeeaful actors. Aa an item of inteceet I inject tbe fact that be is a of Sir Robert Lush, late justice of the Court of the Queen's Bene! , London, England, and so lias the claim of blood upon the great royal family. At tbe age of 1 4 years Mr. Vincent aran- o on the stage made his first aj at the Lyceum tVater. Boston, .'L and attracted tLe attention, of James W. Wallack. tbe famous, of New York, and shortly afterward was transferred to his Original theater, at tbe corner of Brxnie and Broadway, where he remained f r four year. uMgMg ror a change, wnen he attained bis majority, be joined John world. m - -- Kllsler. father of Ktlie EllBler. tbe ord Hazel inal Kirke, at Cleveland, Ohio, and continued with him until 1859, when h joined Laura Keene's cjmpany, tbe lady whoD.played at Ford's C., the night theater, Washington. that John W ilkee Booth assassinated 'resident Lincoln, plunging the civi lized world into mourning. At the close of his engagement with Ellsler he went to "starring," and at the breaking war was Then he hied in tbe South. himself north, locating at Indianapolis, ml and managed the theater of that city until 1801, when be organized a troup and took the road, making a trip to London, the home of his childhood, in hile there he made but one an lmS). (tearance, and that for the benetit of Julia Daly, of Philadelphia. Pa., at one time the most famous female actress on the continent. Sxn afterward he re turned to New York and went to Niblo's to support Lotta. the great soubrette star, and probably the wealthiest actress of her sex in the world. He continued at Niblo's one year. When John Feehster, the great French actor, appeared in New York as "Hamlet," Mr. Vincent played the "(J rave Digger" with him, after which he organized a company of his own and has been a junketting star ever out of the civil , ' ' ' since. HIS MARRIAGE. Exemplyfying the fact that actors. like the rest of tbe human world are iiu man, he wedded Miss Eva Jardine at Haginaw. Mich., in lHi2, and it is need leee to say that she has been his "other half" in every appearance they have made together on the stage. Mrs. V in cent combines tbe platonic. the fur anything" and the emotional equal to any actress on the continent. During hie management of theatres at Cleveland, Indianapolis, Detroit, and other cities of the Mississippi valley it was his portion to play all the prom; nent people. Among tbe number may be mentioned Edwin Forrest, Charlotte Cushman, John Wilkes Booth, Matilda Heron, W. J. Florence, Barney w illiains. and W. E. Burton. "By the by," observed Mr. Vineent, "Forest was tbe most erratic man I ever knew. When in Cleveland I took him riding to tbe "Rocky river," some seven miles west of the city, very many times. The drive was through beautiful oak.timb ered land, Autumn s golden leaves had fallen, and they lay on the ground ankle-dee- p Alighting at a convenient place during one of our drives we texture to walked through the moss-lik- e a bluff skirting tbe great lake, nearly or quite 200 feet above the water's edge. The sun was sinking in the western borizen and I do not think I ever saw a more beautiful sight. Forest was unusually quiet and leaned against an g oak aappling the bluif. "What in the world are you thinking about, Forest? Pausing a moment he drolly replied: , ' "I was thinking, perhaps, that or some other famous Indian, might have leaned against this very tree a hundred years ago and watched tiiat sun go down.' " "I thought the remark very ridicukxut considering the fact that Metamora bad lived scores of years before, while the tree could not have been more than a half dozen years old. "On the night of Forrest s arrival in Cleveland, Chariotte Cushman was playing 'Lady Macbeth,' and he occupied a box with me. It may not generally be known but Forest hated Miss Cushman with a bitter hatred. It seems he associated her with Macready who hissed him on his first appearance before a Tm-read- over-lookin- Meta-mora- 00 frfrOOOPO&CQOQOOO OOOOOOOOC y ii Snaaay toad of aaav ps-s- iJy I maaaeal talent.

To this day, I think he formulated the 'groat conspiracy' at that time.
