Il lustrated by 50 coloured Engravings, on the Anatomy of t he Repro ductive Organs and their relative conditions in Health and Disease. By SAMUEL LA'MERT. M.D. 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the Univers it y of Edin bargh, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c. The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful consequences resulting ftom irregularities and excesises, which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation: in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The, treatment adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country and in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here concbmsed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert, himself one of the few egaliy qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases. incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself :s. sufficientnt guarantee that those who may place themselves undor will, in every instance, meet with that delicate conside ration and Inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cases.

(who made his appearance when the soldiers came) to direct that the streets should be cleared, and the dragoons were then moved round, and charged upon the mob striking them with the flat of their swords. Numbers rolled on the ground, old and young, and were ridden over—many were severely hurt, and had to be carried away. The scene was one of great confusion during the two or three minutes it lasted. It was soon apparent that the nature of the streets would not permit the cavalry to be efficient, and a company of the 4th Regiment was sent for to Ashton, to take action within the narrow passages, should they be required. There was no regular hourly poll issued by either party, but the supporters of Mr. Fox took the lead at first, and main tained it throughout. In fact, at one o'clock they were as much as 280 ahead, though the Heald party continued to creep up, and at last they made the majority much less than it was at first. At a quarter to four o'clock 896 electors had polled for Fox, and 781 for Heald. The number on the register is 1,890, so that Mr. Fox polled nearly one-half the voters, and won by 115. A protest was laid against the poll proceeding about three o'clock by Mr. Heald's friends, on the ground that the presence of the military in the town was detrimental to their in terests ; but the mayor, under the advice of the town clerk, declined to listen to it, and it was continued to the usual hour of closing. Tfib ptest y ,give rise to a petition on the election, as,..tuttler liam IV., c. 45, s. 17, all votes take,' after such'pr st are understood to be void. Soon after the,g4e o poll, Mr. Heald's committee announced the majo against them to be 112. A company of infantry marched' into the town at twenty minutes past four, but there seemed to be no disposition to repeat the disturbances of the morning. (Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland) with which I entrusted ! May I not use it as an argument iwn fellow-countrymen that they have not man totally unworthy to fill the office of (Cheers) The time that has elapsed since ------ --lies were conferred on me has been compara tively short, but it has served to show me very much that is great and good and interesting in that people, and to determine me to devote all the energies I possess and every power of benefiting them which I have to promote their welfare. (Loud cheers.) There is no country in which education should not be a pri mary object ; but in the full carrying out of education depend the whole hopes of Ireland's future prosperity. (Hear, hear, and cheer's.) Feeling as Ido that such is the case, I have made it one of my principal objects, since I have been in that country, to examine the educational establishments there, and from what I have seen of the intellect, of the quick perception, of the powers of ap plication of the people, I will say confidently that my kind Irish - friends in this university are not behind their fellow-students in availing themselves of the-advantages offered to them. (Cheers.) Coming as Ido from that country—where academical institutions on a national scale, with the single exception of Trinity College, Dublin, are in their infancy—to a land where they have existed and flourished for the last 400 years, I see around me the proofs of the carrying out of the social instruc tion of the people. 'What is in Scotland a matter of realisation and history; is in Ireland a matter of hope and futurity. The prosperity of Scotland is the best augury for Ireland's future. (Cheers.) 300 years ago, Scotland was more convulsed with civil and religious dis sensions than Ireland is at this day—(a voice, " True,") but our monarchs gave us universities, our Parliaments parochial schools, England gave us our Union, and we see the gratifying proofs around us. I believe I may say that one half of the population of this great city by birth or by origin are Celtic; and the glorious results of the blending the Celtic with the Anglo-Saxon blood form the best 113 answer to that mischievous controversy which has lately been got up as regards the respecti - fe merits of the:two races. (A laugh and cheers.) I should little envy any man who could find himself suddenly and unexpectedly, ut intimately, connected with such a city as Glasgow, and such an institution as her university—who could find himself so connected—without feelings of the most lively gratification. Glasgow—which is the emblem of Scottish enterprise—the mother of Scottish commerce and trade —she who has already taken the lead in every enterprise of industry and commerce—has not neglected the charms of literature and the wonders of science. (Cheers.) She boasts, has boasted, and can still continue to boast, of her Finlays, Stirlings, Ewings, Campbells, and her Bairds. (Cheers.) lam afraid almost to go on with the list of great names that rises to my recollection ; but she can always point with pride to the works of a Hutcheson, a Spottiswoode, a Reid, a Clelland, an Adam Smith, and an Alison. (Loud cheers.) She can point to the ingenuity and enterprise of her Watts and her Napiers ; but • she can also boast of the genius of a Jeffrey, a Thomas Camp bell, and a Lockhart. (Loud cheers.) She can boast, too, of the piety and learning of a Melville, a Smeaton, a Chalmers, or a Macfarlane—(loud cheering)—and she can also glory in the military renown of a Moore and a Munro. (Renewed cheers.) The comparison between the state of the city at the date of the foundation of this univer sity and the present time was so well and so beautifully drawn by Sir Archibald Alison in a speech which I had the pleasure of hearing along with many of you now present, that I cannot venture to dilate upon it, but I will only call, in a few words, your attention to the state of this city now with what it was then. Then there were religious persecutions and civil wars—raids were made on the city by the Highlanders, and extortions were made by Cromwell—your river overflowed its banks, famine and pestilence raged in the city. What is it now ? There is peace and plenty : there is entire religious freedom ; you have a harbour within the very heart of the city ; a river bound up within safe boun daries ; and science to preserve the safety of its inha bitants. In those times ministers of religion were obliged to wear coats of mail and carried " whangera" —(a laugh) for the protection of their persons. The Bibles were so scarce that they were chained to the desk, and read to crowds of persons at the same time. Now the ministerial brethren are secure and respected ; the Bible is within the reach of the hum blest member of the community. (Cheers.) And let me for a moment call your attention to the differ ence between the state of this city at this pre sent moment and the Glasgow of a much later period than what I have alluded to—the Glasgow at the Union, About that time the population did not exceed 14,000., and even in the middle of the century it did not amount to 20,000, and depended on Port Glasgow for its liar hour. There were scarcely any manufactures, there were no tonnage dues levied till 1770, and these only amounted to 1,0001. There were no banks—that is to say, the Bank of Scotland, in the beginning of the last century, could not employ a circulation of 30,0001., and it was not till the middle of the century that any banks were established in this city. About the same period it was that a caravan was set going to ply twice a-week with Edinburgh, but the speculation was too daring for the spirit of the age—(loud laughter) and it was shortly afterwards abandoned as utterly hope less ; and I believe men now living have been obliged to sleep on the journey between this and Edinburgh. Now let us look at the other side of the picture. The village of the 15th and the small town of the 18th century have swelled into the enormous proportions of some 370,000 inhabitants, and its harbour swarms with ships. The revenue of the Clyde amounts to 75,0001, a-year. Your customs' duties, which so late as 181.2 did not exceed • 3,0001., now amount to 650,0001. a-year. (Loud cheersr) The circulation of the banks, I believe, may be calculated at 3,500,0001., and the deposits are not less than 11,000,0001. It is not now that a caravan is plying twice a-week with Edinburgh, but the city is surrounded by a positive network of railways, three of which alone conveyed along the rails last year, nearly 5,000,000 passengers. It is energy, combined with education, and aided, too, by science, which has achieved these wonders, and which is every day raising this great city, and dis playing the invincible industry and indomitable perseve rance of her inhabitants. (Cheers.) And now, gentlemen, allow me to address a few words of advice ahorta tion to you—(hear) — to you , my young frien nd ex ds, who by your kindness have not only given me the right, but have made it a duty, that I should speak to you with some authority, and without reserve. The few years which you spend in this place are the most important in the whole history of your lives. The choice which you make here will probably rule your future destiny ; on the principles which you here imbibe will probably depend your fate in eternity. There may be some individual ex ceptions, which prove the rule, but in the great majority of cases the character of the after man springs from the character of the youth ; his career in after life is fore shadowed by his career at school and college. (Cheers.) Every one of you is as much engaged in the formation of your character as the sculptor is with the shapeless clay ; every one of you has an immortal soul committed to your keeping. There is not one of you who cannot make for himself respectability, at least, if not fame. It is for you to decide whether you will be hereafter respected and honoured, or whether you will be a pest to society and a burden to yourselves. I trust you will all accept the first offer that is held out to you by the advantages you now enjoy, and that few indeed will take the latter course. There are, no doubt, some among you with better intel lects and keener perceptions than the rest, and every one cannot hope to attain to excellence or to climb the high est pinnacle of human ambition ; but there is not one of you who cannot, at least, attain to mediocrity, and if you cannot gain the a dmiration, you will at least claim the esteem, of your fellow-creatures. Never allow yourself to despair of anything beyond your reach ; never think that any branch of knowledge is beneath you, for there is no intellect which cannot be sharpened, there is no memory which cannot be improved, there are no bad habits that cannot be rectified in the plastic season of youth. (Loud cheers.) There may be some of you whom I am addressing who are not destined to cross the threshold of that busy life on which you are now standing, and to realise those expectations they and their friends have formed of the youthful promise of them. I will say especially to them, " Remember your Creator in the days of your youth ;" and, if you do, there is no happiness which any imagination can conjure up, no brilliant destiny which talent and application can give to you, or no honour which any earthly power can bestow upon you which will equal those blessings which this will bring to you. For some of you there is probably in store long life and chequered circumstances. To them I will say, seize upon the present advantages you enjoy as a drowning man seizes on the last hope of his preservation, and profit by the excellent education which is here afforded to you.

THOMAS HOOD'S GRAVE.—The publication in Eliza's Cook's Journal of" Lines written at Kensall-green Cemetry," has induced numerous readers to express an earnest de sire to assist in raising a fund for the purpose of placing a memorial over the remains of "Poor Hood." Many a burst of merriment. has echoed above " Hood's Comic Annual," from the lips of all classes. For many a year he cheered our Christmas firesides with racy humour, that never wearied by its frivolity nor offended by its coarseness. Far and wide was he known as the Post of Mirth: bat the higher development of his genius and the nobler purpose of his muse were shown in such glorious hymns as " The Song of the Shirt" and the " Bridge of Sighs." Those who have read either of these poems will acknow ledge that such a man deserves to have k mark upon his sleeping place. so that it may be found without the help of a grave-yard servant, and all who have laughed at his inimitable wit, or sighed over his human tenderness, are now earnestly solicited to spare what they can in aid of a purpose which is alike praiseworthy in the living and due to the dead. At the request of the committee, Miss Eliza Cook has consented to be Treasurer to the fund, and Mr. John Watkins to be Honorary Secretary. Subscriptions will be received by Mr. William Strudwicke, at the Whittington Club, Arundel-street, Strand ; at the office of Eliza Cook's Journal, 3, Baguet-court, Fleet-street ; by Miss Eliza Cook 54, Great Ormonde-street, Bloomsbury ; and by Mr. John Watkins 34, Parliament-street, Westminster.

The whole of yesterday the town was in a state of the utmost excitement ; in the main streets the shops were not opened, and most of those in the smaller streets were also closed. The poll commenced at eight o'clock, and after that hour, Oldham was literally living in the streets ; all the places of business were closed, and the operatives were perambulating the town in a state of the greatest excitement, running to and fro, as news of any demon stration reached them. As early as half-past eight, at the Lord-street booth, two voters lodged a complaint with the deputy officer, and demanded a larger force , as the y had been well thrashed in going to the poll. A few ad ditional specials, out of a force of 600 which had been sworn in, were sent out, and additional arrangements were made by which the peace was kept for some time, only broken by a few blows struck at the polling booths, and some interruption to voters. Between eleven and twelve o'clock, however, the turbulent spirit broke out afresh. The cabs of Mr. Fox were not distinguished by any colours or placards, and as they passed any of Mr. Heald's party in strength, they were attacked, thrown over, and the occupants beaten. The signal for war was an umbrella turned upside down—for peace, an umbrella with the point upward. The Commercial Inn, in Royton-street, one of Mr. Fox's committ the rooms, was was attacked about half - p ast eleven, and front windows were broken, and the Fox men within were beaten. A messenger bringing in the state of the poll from Chadderton was attacked, knocked down, and received a severe gash on the scalp. He managed, how ever, to get to his committee-room, and deliver his re turn. A piece of a flag-staff was th r own through Fox's cen t ra l committee-room window, and one of the clerks L narrowly escaped a very severe injury. The Working Man's hall was attacked about the same time. It had become obnoxious as the depot of the non-electors, and between eleven and twelve it was attacked by a mob armed with crowbars and sledge-hammers and pieces of stone, which they used most effectually, and the occu pants had barely time to escape by the back before the assailants entered. They broke all the windows and the forms, and then left the place. Such riotous proceedings naturally excited much alarm, and the more so as the mayor had never b een seen, nor shown any sign of abi lity to take repressive measures. An information was therefore lodged at the Town-hall by two of Mr. Fox's committee, and four of the county ma gistrates, including the Rev. T. S. Mills, the chairmen of the bench, proceeded to the Working-man's hall, and there read the Riot Act, which had the effect ofquieting the mob. It was, however, clear that the special con stables who were perambulating the town in detach ments under the command of the various police-officers were of no use whatever ; and a message was sent to Lees, about a mile and a-half off, where a troop of the Ist Dragoon Guards were stationed, having been re moved from Ashton for the purpose, under the com mand of Captain Hort. The military soon arrived, amid the cheers of many and the hooting of others. They were drawn up in line, and remained there for some time, until they were led round the town by way of showing that they were in the town. As they were re turning through one of the streets to the Town-hall, they were followed by a mob, hooting very much, and when they came to the Town-hall and were drawn up in line, cries of " Peterloo" were raised, some stones were thrown, and the flanks of the horses were struck with caps. This led to an application to the mayor LAURENT'S GRIND CASINO. A RGYLL ROOMS, Great .

A BM embracing the proposed objects of the present Company was before the last Parliament, when, after passing the Standing Orders and the first and second reading, it was submitted to the Select Committee on the Metropolis Water Supply. The Government and the other Bills occupied the attention of the Committee till the latter end of May, when this Bill was called on, and the evidence gone into ; but from the improbability of being able to pass the Bill through the House of Lords in that Parliament, and in order to avoid large and useless expenditure, by the advice of Counsel, it was withdrawn, upon the understanding that the same measure would be proceeded with in the next Parliament. The Metropolis Water Bill passed last Session removes all uncer tainty as to the extent of interference by the Legislature with regard to Water Companies, thereby enabling the Promoters of this Under. taking to frame their measures to meet all the requirements of the New Ac' and likewise to offer to the capitalist a perfectly secure means Ac', The Water of the River Wandle has long been celebrated for its great purity, and its recent analysis by eminent chemists, fully con firm the high character given to it by the late Mr. Telford and Dr. Bostock, in their examination by the Government Commissioners on Water t-upply. Ev e ry Householder South of the Thames paying W a ter Rates, is aware of the high charge for tho present inferior and insufficient supply. The proposed rates of this Company will be upon a much lower scale. It will thus be evident that upo n the point of ecsnomy alone, they must command the preference of consumers; but be when the purity of the water is considered, and that the :upply will constant and unlimited, all competition will necessarily be su perseded. altr ough inordinate profits are not contemp lated by th's Com pany, yet it is firmly believed, looking at the vast extent of the surrey District, and the daly increase of buildings there, that the present undertaking Ns ill afford an immediate, sound, and steady inyeement for capital. with every prospec, that the maximum di vidend, n w al'owes by the Legislature, namely, 101 per cent., will be speedily attained ; proposals having already been made by large consumers, to take several millions of gallons daily. After payment of the Deposit, no call will be made until an Act de be obtained, in which it will be ovid that no Call shall exceed It. per Share, or be made at m pr ore frequent intervals than three months.

The poll opened at eight o'clock yesterday morning, and from that time -until its close, great disorder and rioting prevailed among the unruly mob which had as l i - sembled around the polling-booth. Police-officers and special constables were on the spot to protect the electors proceeding to record their votes ; but the force was scarcely sufficient to render effectual aid about the middle of the day, when a large mass had congregated so close to the booth as to preclude any voter getting near the poll-clerk, unless he was known to be a sup porter of Lord Norreys, the popular candidate. The collisions and affrays among the people were frequent and severe ; and many a fellow was carried away thoroughly exhausted with the drubbing he had received from his antagonist. Precisely at four o'clock the poll closed, and Lord Norreys' committee a few minutes afterwards published the numbers as follow :—Lord Norreys, 153 ; Mr. Burr, 129—majority for Lord Nor reys, 24. The town was in a state of great excitement, and the tradesmen in the streets contiguous to the polling-booth closed their shops, the uproar and con fusion reaching a height never before known on such occasions. DURHAM. ----- The polling took place yesterday, when Lord Adol phus Vane was returned, the numbers at the close of the poll being 514 for Vane, and 496 for Fenwick. BURY ST. EDMUNDS ELECTION. The nomination for candidates for the vacancy in this borough, caused by the appointment of Mr. Stuart to a vice-chancellorship, took place yesterday morning ; and although on many former occasions complaints had been made of the disorderly conduct of the people when called upon to exercise the elective franchise, it was universally admitted that yesterday's proceedings were the most tumultuous and disorderly ever witnessed in the town. The two candidates were Mr. H. P. Oakes (Conservative), the son of a banker carrying on business in Bury, and Mr. J. A. Hardcastle (Liberal), who represented Col chester in the last Parliament. The friends of both candidates paraded the town from an early hour in the morning, with banners of all sorts and sizes, the designs on many of them being of-a personal rather than of a political character. This circumstance caused much exasperation, and it not unfrequently happened that the two parties came into collision while pursuing the route marked out for them. But it was not until the candidates made their appearance on the hustings that the bitter feelings which had been engen dered broke out to any very serious extent. As soon as it was known that the Mayor was on his way to the hustings, a body of horsemen wearing Mr. Oakes' colours, and consisting of country squires, magistrates, and gen tlemen farmers, rode into the vast mass of persons who had congregated, and took up the,t, position in the mid dle of the crowd. This circumstance called forth loud rebukes from various quarters, and some of Mr. Hard castle's men endeavoured by means of their flags, which were of enormous size, to drive back thelfintruders. This was resisted ; the horsemen formed 14emselves into a line, and at a given signal from one of the party, rapidly advanced, and rode down flags, men u , and ‘vAiwthing that came in their way. The police, assisted by a large num ber of special constables whom the mayor had judici ously sworn In, conveyed some of the ringleaders to the lock-up, where they were confined during the remainder of the day. This was not, however, sufficient to ensure order, for during the whole of the subsequent proceed ings the disturbances continued. Mr. Beaven proposed, and Dr. Drake seconded the nomination of Mr. Oakes, while Mr. H. Le Grice pro posed, and Mr. Collins seconded the nomination of Mr. Hardcastle, the show of hands was declared to be in favour of Mr. Oakes, but a poll was demanded and fixed for to-day, GLASGOW UNIVERSITY. INSTALLATION OF HIS EXCELLENCY THE EARL OF EGLINTON. GLASGOW, Nov. 30. - • This afternoon his Excellency the Earl of Eglinton, who was recently elected Lord Rector of the University, was duly installed into office in the Common-hall of the college. The building was crowded in every part, the galleries being appropriated to ladies, among whom was the Countess of Eglinton, who was received with several rounds of the heartiest applause. His Excellency was accompanied to the Common-hall by the Principal and the Professors of the University, and by Sir Archibald Alison (the late Lord Rector), Sir Michael Shaw Stewart, and other distinguished persona. After the formal proceedings had been disposed of, His Excellency the LORD RECTOR rose, and was re ceived with the most enthusiastic applause. He said— Very Rev. Principal, Professors, Students, and Gentle men,—There are occasions when it is no easy matter to express the feelings with which we are animated, and the present is one of those when it is most peculiarly difficult for me adequately to express my sense of the kindness which you have shown me. (Loud cheers.) It is, indeed, most gratifying to me, or to any man, to be singled out by any large body of my fellow-countrymen as an object of esteem and approba tion ; but there is something which comes more especially home to the heart, and which warms the feelings—to be singled out and welcomed by the youth of one's country —to be singled out by those whose happy countenances and joyous looks bring one back to years long gone by, and which also point to future energy and usefulness. (Continued cheers.) It is, indeed, most gratifying to me to be singled out by the members of this University, by the educated youth of the west of Scotland, and by those learned and pious men who direct their studies, to fill a chair hallowed by the recollections of antiquity and by the memories of those grea t men who have occupied it—that wonderful list of men who have occupied this chair, from the bold and patriotic Andrew Melville, of the th century, to your own Sheriff Alison, of the 19th. (Loud cheers.) The mighty orator who has en chained millions by the intense power of his eloquence, the statesman who has swayed the destinies of empires, the poet who has enthralled the passions, the philo sopher who has roamed into endless space or pointed out the hidden treasures of the earth—the skilful lawyer, the eminent divine, the truthful historian, have all filled this chair ; and each, in his turn, has addressed the students in words of power, and in the fulness of his intellect. (Renewed cheer ing.) I cannot claim to myself the eloquence of a Stanley or a Macaulay—(cheers) ---the ripe states manship of a Peel or a Lansdowne, the varied genius of Brougham, the brilliant acquirements of a Jeffrey or a Cockburn, the learning of a Mure, or the pen of an Alison ; but I will yield to none of my predecessors in my appreciation of the kindness which has been shown me in my earnest determination to uphold the sacred cause of education, or in my desire to promote the in terests of those who have thus conferred on me the greatest honour in their power to bestow. (Cheers.) Believe me, that honour, though unsolicited, has been earnestly desired, and I have long look ed to it as a worthy, but perhaps unattainable, obj ect of my ambi tion. I trust I have no more vanity than. other men, but if anything could at such a time be a_ d the gratification which I feel, my part, as well it is that I should have been opposed, however unwillingly as on his, to a nobleman whom I esteem man - d admire so e t cheering)—one much as the Duke of Argyll—. who, though young in years,. is already rich in ne who has elo quence, in learning, and in wisdom al ready earned for himself a n iche in the temple of fame, and a high plac e in the estimation of his fellow-coun trymen—who w ho has never prostituted his great ta lentsitt to factious purp oses or selfish ends—unblemished character as he is unsullied in hereditary descent--a, worthy representative of perhaps the greatest family among the nobles of Scotland. He is worthy of the encomium which Tbomson bestowed on his greatesi ancestor— " From thy rich tongue Persuasion flows, and wins the high debate ; While mixed in thee combine the charms of youth, The force of manhood, and the depth of age !" (Cheers.) I should have cheerfully submitted to defeat in such a contest, and hailed him with pleasure as your Lord Rector, in the well-known words of Cicero. I trust I shall be pardoned for alluding to one circum stance connected with my election, which has, among the rest, given me the most sincere pleasure. It is that I have received the almost unanimous support of the Irish students of this university. (Cheers.) May I not claim it as a proof that I have not forfeited the good opinion of those whose interests are for a time committed , to my charge—that I have not sullied the dignity of the FOREIGN THEATRICA _ ITALIAN OPERA.—The loveliest pastoral ever given to the world in the form of an opera, the Sonnambu/a of Bellini, was produced on Thursday night for the debut of Mlle. Beltramelli. Mlle. Beltramelli possesses a good soprano voic e, and her st y le, without reaching th a t ex- Well-taught school, and a requires that rare treme finish of execution which forms pillars of Hercules the inmusaicancleof art, Am is tihnaat, whichof com bination of the highest skill in vocalisation with deep i pathos and expression, was rende re d her performance to create a highly favourable impression, The recitative to her cavatina was unexceptionably delivered, and the air itself " Sovra it Ben," sweetness that was given with a taste and The finale of the commanded general approbation. second act, in which she takes so prominent a part,creditable, to Mlle. Beltramelli's powers, both was tatrice. In the .as an actress and a can well-known finale of the opera, she like wise showed herself an accomplished vocalist, though evidently somewhat fatigued by her previous exertions. On the whole, the debutante may justly claim an honour able rank in the list of M. Corti % prima donna. In the other characters, the audience had to welcome two fa vourites. M. Calzolari's Elvino is already well known to the habitue of the Salle Venta,dour, and he never sang the part with more taste, tenderness, and expres sion, than on Thursday night. The beautiful cavatina, "Il piu triste de' mortal'," particularly, he sang with a sweetness and truth of expression that commanded the admiration of every real dilettante. The Count was M. Beletti, whose "Vi raviso " was among the most applauded morceaux of the night, and left only a regret, that the part contained so little for this always accomplished artiste to sing. The choruses and orchestra did their " spiritings" excellently. Verdi's opera of Luisa Miller is in active rehearsal both at the Italian Theatre and at the Grand Opera ; at the former, the principal female characters will be sup ported by Mmes. Cruvelli and Borghi ; at the latter, by Mmes. Bosio and Masson. At Bologna, two prime donne are dividing the favour of the public, Mine. Frezzolini in I Puritani c and Mlle. Gazzaniga in Norma. 2 0 0 1 11 6 4110, APILI STEAM COMMUNICATION WITH i„rge AUSTRALIA . 11,•••tits, a „2 1(1 Powerful New . Screw Steam-ship ADELAIDE, i f4 ble i",,'„ 450 -borse power, G. W.
