cuted what little he had

to Mis entering th e orchestra. In the

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 Chevrense, 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,
1 is a personage of very different metal. lle took the difficult
and trying part of Clievreuse, and represented it with great
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 expresion. He walks the atage 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-
ingr effect. The organ itself is full, round, and sonoeus.
