FINE ABM EXHIBITION OF FRENCH AND FLEMISH PICTURES AT THE GALLERY, PALL-MALL. The cosy little gallery,l2o,Pall-eall,opened to-day to the public with an interesting exhibition, although scarcely equal to former displays la this room. Art should be of uo country ; yet year by year we en a most approximation in the write of asthenia artists to the subjects and treat mat of our own school—a sehnol, however, be it remem bered, frve free solienal poulleity or converifonal tradi Ike. The emirates expressed by K.

And any In this exhibition we tee the deft of this intelligent appeedatka in a frailness and gishiby, an aerie of theatriee exaggeration, and a purity lei oho, hardly (mown to the French art of a few years dace. Doallthes this is loam perceptible in this gallery than it is la the see' exhibition of the French school at Paris, for NM the area ohs "Obit here are probably resident in die amiry, sr bow a salseal tendency tl develop English dieseadelies, ebbe be lea taken sinew of by Mr. Cleneset, d bieltaigehle director of this exhibition, he eider r maier II non interesting to the English visits.

Nevertheless, " The Sheep" in a landscape bas medal and wallas murk. The sheep, so fleecy and helplessly silly. yet with a touch of mutual recognition In their meek eyes, an evidently pain'ed " from the life." The moorland Brittany landscape (not unlike the Janda of the artist's native Bordeaux), with its rough growth of heath and futze, and the reesmion of the distance which, with so low an ho rizon, preemie no mall dimcalty, is also rendered with great fidelity. Two stadia of an apple and a cherry tree in blossom are still more valuable as illustrations of the close and faithful Whams to nature which ha been the founda tion of Mademoiselle Bonheur's well-aterited reputation. We miss the Walkable pictures of poultry by Juliette Bostheur, but maths, of this must-family is well tem.:seated in "landscape with Sheep." This work, by M. Auguste Boehm, has more of the old materiel' brows tone, and learn of the fresh ovum* effect than we have ban accustomed to me is landscape tam this hand. If we admit, however, that smatakine may be degraded to the varnish tinge here reply mated, tide pokers has peat richnees of dusky colour, and molt hmwsooy within holt MUSIC. ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA. The new Covent-garden Theatre opened far the Royal hell= Opera season on Saturday evening with vary favourable promo= of encase. We underatand that the subscription Y large, both for boxes and stalls, and en Sa turday night dame parts of the how, had • brilliant and fashionable sepia. The pit was crowded—though it is now reducel to such narrow dimensions as to have become quite insignificant—little better than • nun*. How different front the old days of the Italian Opera—the days when the pit was the focus of musical amaMmino, and ‘. Fops' " was the favourite lounge of the fashionable lfmnew•s of the day. The upper regions were well tenanted, and altogether there was an excellent home. We trust the augury of a good num will prove moth ; though the lawn will doubtless find it an arduous one. He has, very unex pectedly, got rid of his old and formidable rival, Her Majesty's Theatre; but he will probably find a new rival of a serious daseripekm. The Drury Lane manager is about to take the Geld at the heed of a powerful force; end each pasty will find it necessary to exert himself to s` hold his own." Competition will be good for the public, pounded that both competitors are able to stand their ground ; and this we think mey be the ease, for Italian opera now =joys in London a degree of favour much more general then at any former period. We merely mention the fact, without at pneent speaking of its muses, or inquiring hew far it is desirable that the English metropolis should lure two great foreign musical theatres, without supporting a single English opera-house worthy of the name. The open of Saturday was the Zander*. Will thl a tern out to be the beginning of another Verdi season like the last, when both the opera-houses gave us the Trovatere end the Trendies every week—not =- frequently both houses giving the one or the other of those pie= on the game night? If so it be, we shall not think ourselves settled to complain. We shall not blame the managers of either house ; for a manager will naturally give those things which fill his house. He will give them be cense the public desire to have them ; and though, for our poor part, we are heartily weary of the Innate and the Trorato"", we are far from setting up our own impression sealant the general feeling. Pieces which attract so greatly and so long mmt have qualities intrinsically attractive; and this, at all events, is certainly the case with the Truest ors, which is probably the beet of Verdi's works. Whether considered M a dramatic c r • musical point of view, it is • strange mixture of good and bad. The plot ent iui. dente ere unnatural, and se alaurd that it is actually =pos. tibia to relate them intelligibly; while aU that poetics which filet., to the glpere vengeance has a wild and startling horror that =prams us in spite of ourselves. Then, with regard to the nnuic—emid much that le Delay, commas. place, and trivial even to vulgarity, them are really fine and striking impiratices ; and these, it can scarcely fall be ob served, are almost all to be found in the =am fa which the gir sy beers a part. The Nene of the gipey camp, with the chorus and dances interrupted by Amicena's wild, passionate tale of her wrongs and her terri ►le tevenge, is the best thing in the opera; and the whole music of the last act, Including the famous peens of the "Him. nee," displays power as well as beauty. When we com pare there pastimes with the oahaletta of "Tama la nolo," and such like trivielitier, we can hardly imagine thin so d.fferent emanating from the same mind. Oa Saturday evening there were two new a.piranta to the favour of the English public; Sigeora Lotti, who appeared in the character of Leonons, and Signor Detareini, who per fermed the part of the Count di Lona. Mlle. Lotti may be cleamoterieed i• one word—she Is charming. She has all the bloom and freshness of youth, end her beauty le of a kind as rare as It is touchier ; for it Is the beauty of form and fasten united to the visible signs of • beautiful mind. She is of middle stature ; her figure Is elesile , , but premien to grow fuller; bar herd is of the Grecian type, and her ta rsier features vast intelligence and feeling. She hes a par e soprano voles, w►ose beauty can hardly be exaggerated by , descriptive. It is at once MIA and brilliant, and is emitted so freely that it puma from the softest planbeimo to its utmost strength without strain, effort, or the slightest loss of sweetness. As an artist she has sunithtng to learn, both In Merl= and acting. Her execnUen was ocoasioneliy deficient in animation and Inisb a defect especially apparent Is her aria gringrata, most usgratefal recreate, (Or it is florid and devils, without grace cr twaaty. She was, too, overwhelmed with timidity, sad this air, her fist nosy, did not give proaVte of what she afterwards achieved.

On Saturday night "a new and original three-act comedy," by Mr. Stirling Coyle, entitled Everybody's Friend, was produced at this theatre, amid such continuous laughter and applause that Its SUOMI/ did not admit of emetics. The laurels of the evening rest with Miss Reynolds and Mr. Compton. To the spirit, vivacity, and perfect stage knowledge of the lady much of the success at the play was doe. She latoured raelonely throughout, and gave point and effect to many speeches which would have fallen dead from the lips of a less practised actress. In the pow trayal of ecesetricity of a special kind Mr. Compton is unrivalled, and be hu never been more ettoometally fitted with a character. Mr. Buckstone seems to have sank his comic speciality in his laudable managetlal desire to strengthen the cut, and he seldom now Ia able to appear to his best advantage ; he made the most of wh►t he bad to do, and it is nudism to say delighted the audience.

Mr- Charles Mathews cannot edit]; he made Ms nearest approach to bad acting, perhaps, on Saturday, but there was evidence of the smiet beaming through his languor, his lack of viva city, and his imperfect knowledge of his pert. The piece wee, as we have said, greeted with the loudest applause, and will, we have Ito doubt, draw very good houses.

His lordship says :" I should have been proud during the debate to have proclaimed the abhorrence wi'h which almost universally this innovation is viewed in my native country. Although Scotland was not laoludeA in the bill, Scotland did well to petition sedan it ; for sa addi tional objection to it was that it gowned to estriblieh a dif ferent law as to the ementials of the marrisge contract In different part of the United Kingdom, and if the bill were to pass, Scotland could not long maintain her existing cherished law spinet incestuous marriages, which I believe t 3 le agreeable to Scripture which is sanctioned by the Confession of Faith, and by a S cottish act of parliament, end which is so highly conducive to the purity and happiness of domestic life."

The mistake arose from Mr. Robinson supposing he had a balance in his favour at Weatherby's, and when the nomination was sent in, had the least hint been given, all arrears would have been paid ; but it was a decided blunder to include the horse among the so entors if this were too much trouble ' and it is to be hoped that such a case will not be allowed to near spin, as it created a great deal of dhs defection and ill-feeling, the backers of Newcastle, thinking they were dons out of a " pod thing," while the " bookmakers" suffered a heavy = e ry mattering bat little to them whether Bevis, or New er Gladiolus., or any other favourite, won; but, em hie, they have to pay over the winner, while they are not en thled to receive over enact the most beavily-backed horses in the race. I have an opinion that it was fortunate fur his backers he was not allowed to start, foe, wall asks Inked, there was nothing to alike me believe he ceald have given a stone to Bevies, or even to }tension. As re gards looks, Little Agnes was fairly entitled to the position of first favourite, for she was in tiptop fettle, and not so email as many would imagine et tint eight—a low lengthy animal like her, generally deceiving th e canal ' observer. Gladiolas exhibited as much improvements. was expend on his early sprieg form, sad the wretebel-looking Beam we eaw at Goodwood Last July was hardly . recognisable hare. Blue Jacket hoe also grown into a magnificent animal, and over a comes that will better serve his sweeping stride he will do a "gce.d thing" yet. The backers of the Bald fated Stag have nettling to ow:imbue of oa the score of matinee, and Bliley stick to him it is pretty certain he will make up their looses, for he is undoubtedly Ia reserve for a great event. The same may be also said of Precious Stone, decidedly more in condition than her stable companion, Harratoa, who was so in ferior 11, to Bevis In that particular that nothing but defeat could have been expected when they got together for a tussle. There is none too much at Bevis, but he is just the horse for the Chester Cap, although with flat his party cannot be sanguice, and it is not improbable that little Adams will tool Ran Avis for their money in that en counter. The race was not an exciting one at the finish, although several changes took place during the early part of it. Paul Jones and Precious Stone mede running, and at such a pee that it could not have been for themeless; Pan overpowered his rider soon after starting, and kept them company, the three being immediately attended by Little , Agnes and Hairston, with Bevis, Gladiolus, Yellow Ron, and the Courier well up, Blue Janet running on by himself dear of tho ruck, the moat prominent colour in the front of which was the cherry of Sir J. Hawley. The pirate axe through tclear of his companions, and made such hot work of it the dip and up the hill that the tall began to stretch at an alarming rate, the only animal who appeared capable of materially improving hie position in suck a slaugh tering pace being the Beacon. Paul Jobs had does his duty by the time the kill was fairly mounted, end on his retire ment Precious Stow, who had been steadied on ascending the kill, again got to the hem the enshrine still respectable, considering bow they bad been going it from the commence ment. Little Agnes non pulled herself alongside Precious Stone, and close to the latter wen Harraten, evidently "in &Undersea," Season and Pan running on about even terms with him, with Bevis, Blue Jacket, Yellow Rose, and Courier sleety laid up, there being nothing else in the race. Oa they came up the straight, Precious Stone maintaining her lead till shout two distance. from home, when she retired pi e elpitataly. Little Agnes and the Beacon, who had berm left in trout for ea instant, being immeele by collared and shaken off by Hatratres, end then retiring beaten. Herndon now looked like cowing in alone, for he Increased his lead at every stride; but Bevis came up to him with • wet mall, gad at the Stead had decidedly bested him, all Daley's desperate efforts failing to get him to make another effort, so that Bevis won with case at last, "Third" place was obtained by Gladiolus, If a horse beaten slaty yards is entitled to such an honour • but It was at least gratifying to me to ass a No. S placed ag ainst his name, for it made my selection of Harre l= to be first, with Gladiolus and Little Agnes next, worthy of being noticed, as I then placed the second and third horses with the assistenoe of an outsider" and a favourite. In my analysis of the Spring Handicap acceptances, some two months back, I also made a most happy selection of a lot to beat the field, the following being my summing up In reference to the Nerthamytonabre Stakes : " Bevis being the only acceptor of W. Day's Nottbampton lot, he must become a favourite for that event if pulled out, theca being many who cling to him so the beet even of hie Classier Cup lot—and, if to, the Northamptonshire Stakes may prove too tempting a bait for him to despise. He would prove a formidable opponent to the Meldleham teans,whlch is very string—J.ollx.rtie having Little Agars; T. Dania. Precious Stone sod Barret= ; and W.Oates, the strapOng Gladiolus. Between these the race apparently rests, unless the good looking half-aister to Yellow Jack, Yellow Rise, impress oce her last yell's performance, which is not at all improbable." The above lines were petted at • time when theqoailty of the animals weathered was but little suspected, for they were nil disgracefully beaten last neon, with the exception of Pre clone Stone, and for Om bat four in the race to be thus sup plied is • fact to which I caa point without beam awned of egotism.
