Dramatic Performance.
Comspondenes of Washington Star.
Hotel National, Lccebne, July 12.—
Next to William Tell, no figure in Swiss
history stands forth more prominently or
is better known to the world at large than
that of Arnold von Winkelried. Tne first
wan the best type of the fearless, self-as
serting freeman—the latter the highest type
of the noble, self-sacrificing patriot. The
hirtorical e*ents which brought Tell’sname
into prominence may be shrouded soihe-
wbat with doubt; but no one has ever
essayed to deny the verity of the deed of
Winkelriei to commemorate the five hun
dredth anniversary of which all Switzerland
seemed to have gathered at the pleasant but
ancient adjacent town of Sempach, on the
Oth inst. As nsnal on such occasions in
Switzerland, the town assnmed a gBla attire.
Banting and garlands gracefully feBtooned
met the eye in every direction; appropriate
inscriptions conid be read on buildings, and
every lady ahont the place wore the
PICTURESQUE COSTUME
of the locality. At sunrise already people
were everywhere astir; trains commenced
depositing load upon load of visitors, wagons
freighted with gaily-dressed human beings
arriving from all quarters, an l by 7 o’clock,
amid the ringing of church bells and boom
ing of cannoD, a large procession, preceded
by a band, was moving ont of tiie town
towards a memorial chapel situated at some
distance on a knoll overlooking the battle
field of Sempach. < -
upon arrival at the chape* t„s ««c-c as
semblage, kneeling, repeated the usual
battle prayer, which was followed by the
annnully read report of the battle. A short
batimpressive sermon was then delivered
by an eminent divine, who selected as text
the words of St. Paul: “Let every man
abide in the same calling wherein ho was
called."
The preacher enumerated the many
national blessings which followed the
struggle for freedom, pleading, in conclu
sion, for a faithful fulfillment of the
niMion’s calling—the preservation of free
dom by the maintenance of unity. Mass
was then said, and this concluded the re
ligious part of the exercises. Meanwhile,
some 5UU officers of tho Swiss atmy. in a
bodv, took posses-ion of a portion of the
battlefield adjoining a grand amphitheatri-
cal auditorium, from which aroBe a unique
triple arrangement of receding stages or
spacious platforms, with steps along their
entire front leading up from one tier to
another. By this time an audience of
abo'.'t 35,000 peoplo had gathered in and
flanking the vast auditorium, iutent to hoar
tho orators of the day and witness tho
GREAT DRAMATIC DISPLAY
that was (o follow. The first orator, the
Hon. 0. Zemp, deputy speaker of thiftiwuis
House of Representatives, with n stento
rian voice recited how, in the summer of
lfitiO, tho young, ambitions and courageous
Duke Leopold, of Austria, had collected to
gether an army of bis adherent*, numbering
some 5,000 well-armed men, including u
body ol no loss than 700 finely mounted
nnd heavily armed nobles. With these he
purposed to bring into subjection and pun
tab tor dialoynlty the inhabitants of tho
canton of Luoorne and adjacent territory.
’When marching forward toward Lucerne,
just above Sempach, the Duke, however,
encountered an armed force of 1,300 Swiss,
headed by the intrepid Oundoldinges,
posted on the edge of a clearing skirting
the brow of a hill. This body of men, when
the Austrian host came in sight, knelt, as
was the custom of the Swiss before engag
ing in battlo, and reverently repeated
THE BATTLE PRATES.
Then rising they formed into a huge
■wedge-liko'coVutnn, preparatory to ntehing
from tneir vantage ground upon the ap
proaching enemy, lint the daring Loo-
I iold in tho uieantimo bad caused his
mights to dismount, send their horses to
tho reir, and with their sixteen feet long,
hastily spiared lances, in solid double
pint! tux. aw ait tl o onslaught of the daunt
less Swiss. These latter, armed with huge
swords, greet iron-spiked clubs, immense
battle-axe. and all manner of striking weap
ons, a line of archers on their flanks, and
being tannted, with nnearlhly shrieks, yells
and blowing of horns, charged impetuously
upon the serried double line of lances.
Xeitber th» fury of their attack nor the
powerful blows they dtalt made any im
pression upon the solid wall of iron. Al
ready their leader and many of the bravest
men hail fallen. Toe situation sonisd
hopelessly desperate, when
ARNOLD VON WINKELRIED,
of giant stetnre and noble mein, cast away
his weapons and resolutely stepped forth
uttering those ever remarkable words
"Confederate, I will make a way for yon
remember my wife and children!'’ extended
his muscnUr arms, clenched with herculean
grasp well nigh a dozen of the projecting
lance! pressing their spesr heads towards
his bosom, and throwing his whole weight
forward while blood gushed from a dozen
self--indicted wounds, bore them to tho
ground. In.-dantly.cre the gap could be fill
ed, Winkelrcid's fellow confederates rushed
in over the dping hero, and, striking right
and lei t, penetrated to tho rear ol the enemy's
lino, carrying dismay and distraction into
tho midst of tho heavily encumbered
knights, who, nnable to defend themselves
or take flight, became a ready prey to the
embittered mountaineers. No less than
1,500 Austrians, among them Hoke Leopold,
were slain, whereas the Swiss lost only 900
men. ‘-This victory," said tho speaker,
•’cemented firmly tho nDion of the confed
erates, and five centuries have not obliter
ated its effect."
Tho President of Hwitzerlaed was the
next speaker. After alluding to the trials
and struggles which the country hod passed
through and the marked success which bad
crowned the efforts of the people in main
taining intact their liberties, be went on to
speak of the unsettled political horizon
which Ebrope at this time presented. Dan
ger appeared to be threatening in every
quarter, and it became Swiss, not merely
to be content with having their libel ties
glaranteedon parchment, bat they should
s so show that these rested upon e solid iron
basis, upon thoughtful preparation for self-
defense, thorough discipline and a unity
which fearless hearts rendered unassailable.
It behooved them, said President Dencher,
to give proof that small states too had a
destiny to fulfill, and recognizing this in all
it* bearings, likewise offered w ell-founded
reasons for their national perpetuation. He
would impress upon them the word* of the
immortal Pastelozzi: “Uuarditn spirit of
the land, proclaim aloud through mountain
and vale, that freedom Is of the people;
proclaim aloud ’the eternal truth,’ that in
protecting the liberties of *11, lies the safe
guard of individual freedom."

HISTORICAL DRAMA AND LIVING TABLEAUX,
illustrating tho events and significance of
the battle of Sempacb, the whole conducted
upon u scale of simple grandeur heretofore
nnattempted. No less than a thousand
actors must have taken part. Upon the
lowtst of the three immense stages or plat
forms, erected on the geDtle slope, there
■is assembled a chorus and an orchestra of
some COO musicians. Upon the tecond,
somewhat receded ami wider stage
above, were grouped in the
ancient costumes of tho period
numerous peasants. Upon the third
and uppermost stage stood, immediately in
the rear of some veiled object, a colossal
figure of Helvetia. The introductory move
ment {of a cantata entitled "Freedom’s
Hj mn of Viet ry” was then rendered in
most effective manner by the chorns and
orchestra, introducing a pastoral melody,
when a body of joyous harvesters mounted
on a gaily decked wagon came driving
across the second, or middle stage in front
of the grouped peasantry. These were met
by villagers coming from the opposite di
rection bringing refreshments. 'The har
vesters alight, the wagon passes on, and
soon the immense stage becomes a moving
mass of peasantry engaged in the mazes of
a harvest dance. Suddenly the music
ceases, and two peasants step forward re
counting in dialogue the abundance of tho
harvest, and the recent closer UDion
among t e confederates. A huntsman has.
tily steps up and interrupting them, reports
the approach of the Austrians under Dnko
Leopold. An invasion by tho enemy wes
imminent. Commotion ensues—the peas
ants hasten away—a vocal and instrumental
descriptive piece is rendered by the chorus
and orchestra—nrmed bodies of confedei-
ates coming to the rescue pass over the
stage in clues array, displaying their several
banners—groups are seen testing their
weipons, and with the assistance of women
arraying themselves for conflict.
Farewell scenes are enacted, and every
thing on the spacious central stage assumes
iue Lcuiiucn of picpnintiou ’Ol until,
tho music, both vocal aud instrumental
portrays the bustling s-'ene above.
Meantime the warriors have all do-
larted aud the battle is presumed to be
aking place. Then they commence bring
ing wounded, among them the intrepid,
now dying leader of the Swiss, who ex
claims: "O! beloved country! Shall I not
see thee fr. e! Is really all lost!” Mean
time the music gradually changes from the
plaint.vcness of a sceno of wounded aud
dying to the inspiring sounds of victory
Suddenly detachments of the fleeiog enemy
in their rich costumes afoot and on horse
back come rushing across the Binge, inter,
mingled among them heavily armored
knights ill ntter dismay—pursuing blood
stained Swiss follow in rapid succession-
astonished peasants halt aud ques ion tho
detacncd groups of returning warriors as to
the particulars of the battle. Then follow
in close column the main body of the con
federates, bearing an immense quantity of
SPOILS AND TROPHIES,
the choraa meanwhile singing a song of tri
umph, which changing into a hymn of
gratitude, finally ends in prayer, wherc-
npon the peasantry remaining on tho stage
take a kneeling posture. Meanwhile there
enters a solemn train of warriors and peu
Hants bearing the dead, among them the
body of Winkelried, which is reverently
deposited in the center of the stage, when
bannerlieurers and sorrowing friends gronp
themselves around tho deceased patriot anil
do him homage, tho chorus and orchestra
rendering an appropriate dirge, Tho group
ing of returning warriors mid peasants
increases, and now extends up the second
flight of ships and oa to the third
stage, with the veiled menu
meat in front of tho colossal
figure of Helvetia as the oentral object,

hushed nnd expectant, amid soft and rnjs-

Further Details From the Volcanic DIs-
turbnooM In Ne\r Zealand—Only One
Volcano Active June 25th—
Analysis of tho Ashes.
San Francisco, August 9.—Tho steamer
Mariposa, which arrived here last evening
from Anstralia, brings further details of
great volcanic disturbances which
lately occurred in New Zealand. Heavy-
earthquakes were still felt in Farornwa and
Sulphur Springs districts. The relief party
that was sent out reported Lake Farorewa
had fallen in considerably. The old crater
Whakarewareda was throwing up stones
and mud to the height of twenty feet, and
the great boiling lagoon of
1’apa‘angi would suddenly use as much as
two feet, and then as quickly fall. Similar
phenomena were observed at the Knirra
Caldron, which would rise two feet in half
hour, then as quickly return to its nor-
gl level. The telegraph officer in charge
: Rotonia station, near where tho earth
quakes were heaviest, reported on Jnn« 25
a*, volcano No. 1 was dead, and that Nos.
and 3 were steaming. No. 1 was still
throwing up mud.

very eccentric courses, overleaping one sec

makirg a scientific examination of the
volcanic districts, said he expected that the

was displayed to view. Immediately
front of it stood a sarcophagus, upon which
lay tho outstretched form of a dead warrior.
A woman, plainly attired as a widow,
leading two childreo, also dressed
mourning, then ascended the gentle
rise in front, and all threa knelt
beside the monument, while the genius
of Helvetia loomed up in the rear bolding,
ae it were, a vietor'e wreath of laurel over
the deed warrior in one hand and with the
other pointing to the kneeling wido w and
orphans. This mlse en scene was overpower
ing. Thousands of eyes moistened; men
who hud not shed a tear for years admitted
they could not repress them on this occa
sion. Twenty-two plainly dressed little
boye, each carrying a small cantonal banner
in one hand and a laurel wreath in the
ether, low ascended and in tnrn reverently
deposited their wreaths aronml and npon
the monument. Then followed tho closing
anthem, tbe whole vast assemblage joining
in the final refrain,
"acmrr do mein vaterland."
Every one who hail witnessed the superb
grandeur of this unique dramatic representa
tion st clued carried away with 1U excep
tionally powerful impreaaioD. "Verily tbia
is a Swiss Oberamuiergan play," said one,
while several declared, "here was given a
type and foretaste of the popular drama of
the future," Later in the afternoon a more
elaborate monument, commemorative of
the event, erected in the town of Sempach,
was also dedicated, after which followed a
banquet to tbe more prominent guests
aud participators The doling event
of tbe oeremoniee, however, was a grand
illnmination of the city, harbor and lake of
Lucerne, when a perfect chain of fires all
along the mountain-girt lake rendered
luminous the heavens for mile* around.
Countless rockets, bursting in mid-air,
showered down th> ir snperhly brilliant con
tents upon the placid waters below as they
reflected the inunmerable colored lanterns
decorating the constantly shifting craft in
the harbor. The music of a splendid band
contributed to make tbe weird scene one of
unsurpassed impressiveness and beauty,
and thus closed the five hundredth anni.
