The outline of the engagements published in our paper of Wednesday last held out a brilliant prospect of sport, which, we are happy to state, has been realised to its fullest extent; the fields were large beyond our expectations, the betting was animated, and th e compet i t i on, part i cu l ar l y f or t h e T wo Yrs Old and Selling St a k es, c l ose and exc i t i ng ; t h e mee ti n g, in short, as well in its getting up as in its issue, must have proved extremely gratifying to those who had the good for tune to be present, and was in a high degree creditable to Mr. Dorling, and that powerful body thslicensed victuallers of the metropolis, by whom its staple feature has been so steadily and so bo unt if ully supported. The meeting, i rrespective of the sport, came off under the most favourable c i rcumstances ; the weather was b r i g ht and warm, and th e attendance —thanks to the fac ili t i es afforded by the B r i g ht on Railway Company—the largest we have seen on Epsom D owns on any other occasion than a " Derby Day." The enclosure was thronged, so also was the stands, in which, if we missed the "beauty and fashion" that of old formed one of the chief attractions of a race course, we noticed many of the not a bilities of the turf, amongst them the M arqu i s of Waterford, Lord Strathmore, Lord George Lennox, L ord Airlie, Lord Canterbury, L or d Adolphus Fitzclarence, L ord Exmouth, Lord Clifden, L or d Stanhope, Count Bathyany, Sir George Armitage, lion. Ge• neral Anson, Hon. Maj or Pitt, Hon. Captain Rous, lion. Agar Ellice, Colonel Ne w t on • Messrs. Payne, C. reville, Mills, G. Fitzroy, H. Fitzroy, J. Stanley, Itleiklam , Osbal deston, Gratwicke, Milne r , M.P., Gregory, Waller, Drinkald, S. Graham, Magenis, Bast ar d , Rudston Read; &c. Hi s Ex cellency the Swedish Mini s t er and several other f ore i gners were also present. In giving Mr. Dorling credit for the efficiency of his arrangements for the dispatch of business on the coarse, we must especially compliment him on the increased of the ac commodation he has provided in the weighing-room; we have also to thank him for the attention he has paid to the convenience of.the xepresentetives press , by appor tiOning a niche for their exclusive use—littlifitale•sPlice" and a little more light would h ave left them nothing to desire. Of the mode in which the details of the manage ment were carried out it will be unnecessary to say more than that they were entrusted to the Newmarket staff of officials; and that, so far as it rested with them, every thing passed of unexceptionably; the only salient point was the time, which, owing to a variety of little incidents that preceded the start for the first four races, was not so well kept as could have been wished. The cl er k of the scales, however, and his subordinates were so completely up to their work that the last race of the day was only half an hour be hind the time fixed. The following is a return of the racing;— The Epsom Trial Stakes of five sovs. each, with 50 added, for three-yr-olds, Est 12Ib ; and four, Bst 71b. One mile.

Puritan, rushing to the front immediately after starting, led three clear lengths to the turn, which he took so wide as to let up his followers, and the lot ran well together to the dis tance. From this point to the finish Puritan and Stapleton were singled out, the latter obtaining the lead half way up, and winning cleverly by half a length. Run in 1 min. 51 sec. The City and Suburban Handicap of 15 sovs. each, 10 ft, and only 5 if declared, &C., with 150 added, the second to receive 25 sovs. olt of the stakes; winners extra.

She was remounted after a short delay, and proceeded quietly to the post. The Estelle filly went away with the lead, and h av i n g Sister to Iracundus in close attendance, cut out the work to the distance ; here she was headed by the favourite and Gold Dust, the former, by patient and fine riding, win ning a most exciting race by a head ; the Estelle filly was a good third.

In the rush for places at starting it was impoisible to say • which was making play, nor was it until the horses' had run nearly a distance that anything had a decided lead. Kate then went to the front, and on turning out of the course was three or four lengths in advance, followed by Kick-up-the-Dust, Sally Warfoot colt, Achyranthes, Stilton, and Officious lying off in company with Backbiter and El thiron. Kate went on with a tremendous lead to Tattenham Corner, her attendants at this point being Sally Warfoot c and Stilton, next to whom came Officious, Joe Miller, Acy ranthes. and Backbiter. From the road Stilton and the Sally Warfoot colt gained rapidly on Kate, and at the dis tance she was beat. Joe Miller now went up, and heading Sally Warfoot colt and Stilton, carried the running on to the stand, where he was challenged by the favourite, quitted without difficulty, and beate n cleverly by a length; Offi cious a good third, Kate a bad fourth, the Sally Warfoot colt fifth.

In Maria we trod back Madame Fiorentini, who was warmly greeted. She was in her best and most powerful voice, and her execution was more rapid, brilliant, and correct than ever. The graceful melody, "Cups Fatal," which forms het first aria, was very sweetly sung and capitally accompanied. Madlle. Ida Bertrand is increasing in stage aplomb and effectiveness, and her voice was also in excellent order. She gave her arch contralto song in so musicianly a mari ner, and wi'h such dramatic propriety of sentiment, as to call down a loud encore. In the first act there is little ' ing for display in the part for the baritone, but the mingled manliness and tenderness which he threw into the air " Ab, non Avea" at once established Signor Ferlotti's footing. The concluding concerted music was satisfactorily performed. In the second act i,ldlle. Ida iiertrand's piquant and saucy song, " Zu scherzi o un.tr," very narrowly escaped an encore; and the concluding duo between Maria and Chalais, excellently given by bah performers, brought down the act-drop with great applau,.. The third act is strong ground for the baritone. We drettly characterised the general style Of Siti;or Fcchrti's acting and singing, and we have little to add, save that'll:B delineation of the outraged husband was at once patirefie, manly, and full of genuine power. The burst of pa'sion addre*ed to the wife—the intensity of the sneering words which succeed—the triumphant rage when the husband (Mils his betrayer in his power- all this was given with a vigour and artistic effect which quite took the house by surpri-e. the singer remaining perfectly in command of Li, voice I I!r, ii the long And trying scene. (Fittn the Morning ) We could have desired something better for the inanga ration of the :.e..rion than the illaria di Bohan, which, the seventy-fourth ( :) of the works ascribed to Donizetti, is far from being one of the strongest and most original of the composer's etiorts. Moreover, the edge of novelty has been blunted by its contemporaneous performance at another establishment, where R •nconi, the artist who has given the principal character its chief vogue, is at hand to embody i . Signor Ferlotti, however, comes with a greed reputation from Italy. The part in question is stated to be one of his masterpieces as it is of Ho coni's. He is a tall, hand. some man. His voice is of thick and heavy volume, and not altogether so flexible as it might advantageously be. During the early part of the evening he made but little impression, the hopes of the audience being especially reserved for the last act: • And these hopes were not disap pointed. He depicted the anguish and remorselessness of jealousy with power and intention. Nor was the portrayal wanting in those niceties of colour which we have been taught to look for. His illustration of deep and absorbin ! passion sTas , odaSIVRl4.gT with9nt the loss of . pew Iv _ d*nitlti• *IC , llll4 '• e, • . , kattititl4w. • , •rairs i 'dr kV • '""*"— tita,'! which overfkrieed sensibility, notwithstanding the solidity and gravity of the tones. The personators of the other characters were old acquaintances of the habitats. Madame Fiorentini, who represented the heroine, has seem ingly made advances since she was here in 1851. We ob serve a greater degree of finish in her mode of delivery, a superiority of style when compared with herself, an increase of vocal ease and self-pessession. In the air " Cups fatal," which first lets the spectator into the secret griefs of her heart. Madame Fiorentini was eminently successful; though her executive tact was more boldly displayed in the cabaletta to the preghiera near the close of the opera, which she sung with force and brilliancy. Calzolari, who opposes Tamberlik at the other house as the representative of the Duke, was smooth, correct, and earnest. His execution of the opening romance" Quando it cor" was sufficiently sentimental, and his duet with the Duke in the second act sufficiently emphatic. The perform ance, in a word, if not distinguished by any of the surprises of genius, was satisfactory, and did not fail to command ap plause. Mademoiselle Ida Bertrand sang the music of the amorous Gondi agreeably and tastefully. The ballet has not yet put forth its strength. Mademoiselle Guy Stephan, who was the " star" of the evening, was a "star" some seven or eight years ago ; and a period of this dimension in the career of a danseuse is little short of a lifetime. When Guy Stephan was here during the early years of the Lumley dynasty, she was liberally admired and talked about. Her piquant looks and equally piquant style of dancing were good reasons for euthusiasm ; and though the schools of " realism" and " idealism" were not then determined by ingenious critics, her graceful liveliness was a theme of copious panegyric. Since those halcyon days of the ballet Guy Stephan has been in Madrid, where she has been a permanent favourite for several years; and she ris now lured back again to her Majesty's Theatre, in the full cdour of Spanish glory. Time does not seem to have rifled this clever artist of her personal charms. We ob serve but little alteration in her appearance. Perhaps she is a little stouter; but for that we care not. Between the acts of the opera the divertissement entitled L'Aurore, identified with the name of Durnilatre, was revived for her rentree. She was welcomed with pleasure by those who remembered her in her more youthful days, and with interest by those who were cognisant of her continental fame. Nor were either disappointed. Mademoiselle Guy Stephan evinced consum • mate practical ability, displayed not only in the French arti ficialities of the divertissement, but also in the fuller-grown ballet Un Bailie de Candil, which came after. In the latter, the scene and sentinieet of which is purely Spanish, Guy Stephan was seen to excellent advantage. In a .‘ Valise Comique," and a Madrilena, " her Castillian experiences wera brought into pleasant use, and the national dancing of Spain was exemplified without the sophis tications and corruptions of the ballet master. Nothing could be more hue> ant, vivacious, and exhilarating. The National Anthem was sung between the opera and the ballet, the leading vocalist being Madame Fiorentini. (From the Daily News.) The principal character, the Duke de Cbevreuse, presenting a picture of jealous fury, wrought up to the utmost pitch of intensity, demands a tragedian of the highest powers, the qualities of the singer being of secondary importance. It is Ronconi's greatest part ; for the defects of tbat great per former's vocal organ are unnoticed whenever he has full scope for his dramatic genius. Itonconi, in the last scene of this opera, is not unw• rtby to be compared to Kean, in Othello. It is no disparagement, therefore, to the new corner, Signor Ferlotti, to say that his pelbrinaLce is not of so high an order, slid that it Las been placed at a disadvantage by being brought into unavoidable comparison with a perform ance which is admitted to be unrivallei. Signor Ferlotti. nevertheless, is an excellent artist—not only a highly-finished singer, but an actor of no ordinary ability. His voice is ulle of the finest baritones we have ever heard, combining great power with mellow sweetness. and almost the flexibility of a tenor, His style is pure, and he singe with energy and passion. He has expressive features, a good person, and that di-tin guished air which fits the actor for the higher walks of the stag e. In the trying scene of rage and despair which con. e l u des this opera, he made several telling points; but his fault was a deficiency of impulse and abandon. He had too many of the conventional habits of the Opera stage; and by not allowing the audience to lose sight of the actor and t h e singer, weakened the effect of what was, in many respect:: , a very powerful performance. The part of the heroine was performed by Madame Fio rentini, whose beautiful face, graceful figure, and fine voice, were well fitted for it. She sang exceedingly well; and though she did not rise to the pitch of tragic passion which the concluding scene demands, yet her performance on the whole was pleasing and interesting.

One of the most striking effects produced was the assembling of the cantons to take the confederate oath of freedom in the second act. We trust the public may be afforded more than another opportunity of hearing Ros sines master piece performed in so masterly a manner. The critic in a Morning Contemporary has the following just re marks on the new tenor :—" Herr Ander had to contend against the recollection of Duprez and Roger in the name character, than which he could scarcely have undergone a severer ordeal. So much the greater, therefore, is the tri. umph of his success. His first recitative at once stamped him as a great dramatic singer, and his singing of the great duet with Tell in the first act satisfied all that we have gained a new tenor of the first rank. Herr Ander's voice is a hign tenor, answering readily the utmost demands made on it in the strongest burst of dramatic passion; while his cantabile singing is distinguished by great refinement and purity of style. So exquisitely did he sing the slow move ment of the trio to the second act, that it was unanimously re demanded. Herr Ander is a valuable acquisition, and we have no doubt that future performances will confirm the success of last night."

Signor Fortini exe cuted what little he had, to do most meritoriously. The orchestra and chorus were in excellent strength and har mony- The honours of a recall were accorded to the prin cipal performers, and a cerdial greeting was most fitly given to Mr. Balfe on his entering the orchestra. In the way of ballet there were two dinertissements, in which Madlle. Guy Stephan made her re-appearance after a considerable ab sence, and danced and looked as charmingly and freshly as of old. The season may be pronounced, altogether, as hav ing been very brilliantly inaugurated. (From the Chronicle.) Signor Ferlotti personated the character of Chevreuse, and Signor Fortini the humbler part of De Fiesque. The latter gentleman is possessed of a strong and vigorous bass voice, which he uses like a thorough musician. The cha racter presents no feature for dramatic display, but Signor Fortini is evidently at home upon the stage, and did what little he had to do straightforwardly and well. As a steady and conscientious artist, he will be an acquisition. Signor Ferlotti, however, the new baritone, is a personage of very different metal. He took the difficult and trying part of Chevreuse, and represented it with treat and genuine effect. We have seldom seen a more legitimate or well-deserved success. Signor Ferlotti, with a good and compact stage figure, possesses very strongly-marked fea tures, capable of great expression. He walks the stage well and boldly ; his attitudes are capital—the beauty of his poses calling down repeated plaudits upon that account alone. As an actor Signor Ferlotti possesses much of the true dramatic power. He is forcible and impressive, and. can fling either passion, tenderness, or rage into his voice, with very strik ing effect. The organ itself is full, round, and son e oroug.
