ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA..

In consequence of the severe hoarseness of Mario,
which completely disabled him from singing tho
music of Goner°, the opera of Norma was substi-
tuted hero last evening for that of Lucretia Borgia, which
had been originally announced. Grisi was in excellent
voice, and sang as brilliantly and acted as majestically
as ever in the Character of the Druid priestess, and was
throughout applauded to. the echo. Mademoiselle Ber-
traudi sung the music of Adalgisa with great taste and
sweetness, and Tamberlik made the part of Pollio a
part of importance, a feat which very few tenors have
yet been able to accomplish. The Oroveso of Formes
was magnificent.
