Flotow's comic opera, Martha, performed at
Covent Garden last night, Is not a new work, though it has
only now been produced for the first time on our Italian
stage. It is originally a German opera, and was brought
out at Vienna with success, more than ten yeses ago. In
the present dearth of operatic novelty we are rather *m-
yriad ant tt has not appeared earlier at the ens or the Miter
dam Italian houses ; for, though it ie net • work of a may

It has the sciventage of having a lively subject, in which
gaiety and sentiment, in the French fashion, are plea-
Neatly blended. It is founded, Indeed, on a French

mime in Paris ; and it will be remembered that Belie made
the mane subject the foundation of his °wilt% TM Hoist

_ .
his companion is enamoured, in a lighter way;
of her maid. Some time afterwards, the lady, while
on a hunting party with the Queen, suddenly meets her
rustic lover in the forest. He discovers her rank, and the
deception she has practised upon him ; and the asses of In-
jury from the object of his love preys upon hie mind till he
loses his mown. It is now discovered (we do not well under-
stand how) that Lionel is of noble blood, and she
offers him her hand and fortune, which he refuses with
frantic indignation. As a last resort, she tries to cure his
malady by reprodueing the scenes and indulge of their firs
nesting. Richmond Fair le again got up. He is brought
there, and finds once more his fair one, in hes guise et
Lithe, the servant damsel, who succeeds in dispelling the
clouds from his mind ; while the other pair of lovers mobs
