LEVANT MAIL.

We have received Constantinople journals to the
14th inst., and Athens to the 18th. The former
publish a memorandum addressed by the Turkish
Cabinet to all the foreign embassies at Constantinople
on the closing of some hells at Para and Galata. It
is as follows :

" Certain individuals, subjects of friendly powers, have
been for some time engaged in games of hazard, which
they do not hesitate to carry on, against the duties of
society, in certain hotels and shops situated at Para and
Galata. Experience teaches that games of that nature
lead to disturbances which but too often end in murder and
bloodshed, and which it is the duty, as well as the right, of
the local authorities to prevent, and to foresee the loss
and danger which accrue to the public from such dis-
turbances. It has therefore been judged useful and
necessary to direct that the places resorted to for gamb-
ling being once discovered, shall be henceforward imme-
diately visited by the police, to imprison all those who
shall h .ve been taken in the fact, and to subject them to
the punishment they deserve, without any regard to the
nationality they may claim, but with the co-operation of
the legation from which they depend. Being convinced
that you will be anxious to lend your assistance to the
execution of such a measure, the only object of which is
to maintain public security, I g, Monsieur le Ministre,
you will bring this measure to the knowledge of all the
su'ojects of the power you represent, and to accept, Sec."
The Courrier cl' Athines states that the Austrian
Minister has addressed a note to the Greek Govern-
ment complaining of the protection afforded by
Greece to the Italian exiles, who thus transform the
country into a focus of revolution, by forming socie-
ties, striking medals with the effigy of the most pro-
minent men in the late struggles, and thus exciting
the sympathies of the Greek people. The note con-
cludes, with a sort of menace, to the effect that the
more interest the Greek nation takes in those unfor-
tunate men, the more severity will be displayed in
Italy by the Imperial Government towards its subjects.
The same paper mentions a note addressed by the
Greek Minister of Foreign Affairs to all the members
of the diplomatic corps, informing them that, in con-
sequence of a new regulation adopted by his col-
league the Minister of Finance, they will henceforth
be obliged to specify with the greatest precision the
contents of the different sealed parcels or boxes ad-
dressed to them from foreign countries, exempt from
daty in consequence of international custom.

ITALIAN OPERA IN PARIS.
A brilliant and crowded audience, to witness the
second dibiit of Madlle. Duprez, proved incontestably
the powerful impression the charming young vocalist
has created in the public mind. Her second part was
Adina, in that prettiests of Donizetti's rustic operas,
Lt Efisir d'Amore, in which ehe displayed the
same elegance of execution, and, what we
prize much more, the same sweet musical
feeling that pervaded her singing in Lucia.
Adina, of coarse, bears no comparison in point of
interest with her former part, but the music is
Peculiarly adapted to the brilliant style of embellish-
ment which Madlle. Duprez introduces with such a
delightful effect, and, mingled with the coquetry of
the village beauty, there is a sentiment of tender-
ness which make her one of the most charming of
Adinas we have ever seen. Needless to add that
she was applauded to the echo, and fully
the judgment confirmed
formed of her brilliant power on her
first debtit. The fame of the renowned D Ulatalara
in the hands of Lablache is too widely known to
demand a word more than to say Lablache was all
himself. His solemn entrée into the village in the
ell-known phaeton, with his address to the as-
sembled thaw-bacons, have not lost one jot of their
ra,..dness or effect, and convulsed the house with
laughter. He came out superbly in the duo " Io son
ricco," and perhaps never played with more spirit, or
received heartier applause. The unfortunate swain
Nemorino is one of M. Calzolari's best parts. He
sang the principal air, " Uno furtiva lagrima," with a
pathos and beauty which drew down the warmest
applause, and his execution of the music throughout
was worthy of admiration. He makes himself; how-
ever, a little too wo• begone in the part. He should
remember Suckling's well known lines :
" I'Ly b‘hy, fond lover,
why so wan and pile?
If looking well won't move her,
Will looking ill prevail?"
Fulling was the Sergente, which he gave with
the spirit and vivacity which characterise every-
thing be does
;ea he gave the first air, one of the most
striking more.,,. in the opera, very effectively,
and plaudits bravos and recalls, bestowed liberally
throughout the night, abundantly proved the satis-
faction of the auditory. M. Gardoni was expected in
Paris yesterday, from Madrid, and will appear in the
course of a few nights. Madlle. Amalia Ferraris,
and Madlle. Rosati, two of the first danzatrici in Eu-
rope, have arrived. Madlle. Rosati remains in Paris,
being the spirit Ariel in La Tempesta, the opera by
Scribe and Halt":sy, which is now in active rehearsal.

Amalia Ferraris starts immediately for London, to
eommence the rehearsals of a splendid new ballet with
which Mr. Lumley intends to ope❑ her Majesty's
Theatre.
