-ER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
Laereea Borgia was to have been played last night, and
great curiosity was'excited as to the success of Moriani in the
Part of Gennaro. However the following notice, which ap-
peared at the top of the Opera bills, showed that such curi-
osity was not to be satisfied :
"4 It is with great pain that Signor Moriani is compelled
respectfully to announce to the nobility, his friends, and the
public, that a severe catarrh and hoarseness, under which he
is suffering, has increased to such an extent, as to render it,
impossible for him to sing this evening, and, instead of thee
opera of Lucrezia Borgia, will be presented Douisetti's cele-
brated opera of Don Pasquale."
As the audience had probably been gathered together
chiefly by the prospect of Moriani's singing, it was quite " on
the cards" that some dissatisfaction would be expressed. In-
deed, had a less favourite opera than Don Pasquale been sub-
stituted, or had that been performed by less eminent artists,
the chances would have been in favour of discontent. As it
was, Grisi, Mario, Lablache, and Fornasari, charmed as much
as ever, and Don Pasquale was followed by loud applause,
without a murmur of disapprobation. The quartet in the
second act, and Mario's serenade were encored. The Llcat do
irois, from Les -Maris, by Cerito, St. Leon, and Ferdinand,
was introduced between the acts, raising an agreeable doubt
as to which was most fascinating, the grace and elegant
groupings of the slow movement, or the energy and spirit of
the quick one. This pas created general enthusiasm.
