GEhMAN OPERA.
We were enchanted on Thursday by a performance of Mozare°
Zauberflote, exquisite in almost all its parts. This opera it
has been of late the fashion to underrate, not only in this coup:
try, but by a certain set in Germany ; for even in that late:
of melody and correct musical taste, the modern Italian school
of music has its disciples, and these, we are told, consider Mo•
zart passe, and no longer to be admired, with the Exceptions
perhaps, of Don Juan and one or two others of his compesi-
tions. These critics condemn the Zauberfiote more particu-
larly ; but the experience of last night, the exquisite perforta-
anee of the opera, and the enthusiastic reception it met with,
from a well-filled house, should go far to prove, first, that the
detractors from Mozart's merits are in the wrong ; and secondlY,
that their numbers are not great in London. We never wit-
nessed a more continuous, judicious, and enthusiastic applause
bestowed on any performance than Staudigl, Haitzinger, Mel-
linger, and Frunlitig, Heinefetter, and Schumann, earned last
night. Indeed we may say truly, that with the exception of one
part we never heard the opera better peifermed even inGermany•
Had 111 r. Schumann numbered among his company one lady of
adequate voice and talent to do justice to the character of
Astrafiammante, to the music written by Mozart for this pert,
which requires a very hieh soprano of great—compass, JO;
night's performance would have been faultless. We cool,'
not but regret that both the great and beautiful bravuras be-
longing to this part we: e, for want of an adequate performer,
necessarily omitted. The leaving out the music was a great
loss, and the insignificance of the Queen of Night understood
only by those who find an allegory in the confused story of Sa-
rastro, Tamino, and Pamina, to represent the evil principle st
war with the good, deprived the plot, if plot there be, of even
the little coherence that might otherwise be found in it.
Where all was so exquisite, it is difficult to find_ any one
piece more worthy of notice than the rest ; but to us the
air of Sarastro, " U ! Isis and Osiris," with the chorus belong'
ing to it, the terzett between Sarastro, Tamino and Pandas,
" Soll ich dich Theurer nicht mehrschen !" appeared the gag°.
of greatest price. The overture, the duet well known
England as the " Manly Heart," and the charming scene be'
tween Yemen() and his Papagena, in which Madame
Schumann excelled, were encored. We must not emit to
state as a fact highly honourable to the singers, and worthy o,f,
imitation, that they adhered most strictly to the music se'
down for them by their great composer. W e heard no note
which was not incontestably Mozart's, and if we observed that
Madame Heinefetter added two little embellishments on the
word Creatur in her first duet with Papageno, we are willing t°
believe that these were omitted by the singers we bad heard
before. At the fall of ti.e curtain the audience called for the
principal singers, and Staudigl Haitzinger and Heinefetter ar
peared to receive a final cheer of thanks, which mus.t haYj
highly gratified them, for it seemed a unanimous expresseon of
delight.

THE LATE MURDER AT LIVERPOOLe".
On Wednesday morning an inquisition was taken at the Ses;
sions7house, on VI illiam Jenner, jun. The testimony addui e"
was similar to that heard before the magistrates. This fott
pistols were produced; three of them had been found in l
midden by the officers. 1 hese were found to be loaded el,'
in one barrel with powder and ball. One barrel in each w. 15
empty, and exploded caps were on the nipples. The prison'''.
appeared yesterday even more distressed than on '1 uesdaP•
While his son was giving his testimony the prisoner wept ai"
most incessantly. When the boy had concluded, the prisoner
made a request through his attorney, Mr. Wardle, that his sof
might be allowed to sit beside him. This was acceded to, and
the boy wept over and took his seat beside his father, vih°
received him with open arms, and with every demonstration of
intense affection. He entered into a whispered conversation
with his son, sat with his arm round his neck, and appeared
greatly comforted by his proximity. Ihe Jury returned a
verdxt of wiliul murder. The prisoner was removed, and tho
boy George Jetiner was consigned to the care of his uncle'
St.on after the termination of the investigation, the Coroner
entered, accompanied by Mr. James Aikin, a member of the
town council and of the dock committee. The Coroner state?
that Mr. Aikin was desirous of taking the boy (Mr. Jermer
son) to his house, where he should be taken great care of, and
where i very kindness should be shown to him. This offer the
uncle respectfully declined. The sympathy eucited on behalf
of this unhappy family is unbounded.
