MUSICAL MAT1ERs.-Among the revolutions Of
the day, there is one in relation to the amusemens
of society," which is indication Of the progress of
events as expressive any other. II is an astons-
ing fact, after several years of aDguor, loss, and
bankruptcy, that all the theatres and concerts and
all the other places of amusement are crowded more
than ever they have been for the last twenty years
in New York. We shall only note musical matters
to-day.
Madame Chit Ddmoreau, celebrated operate
singer from Paris, has given two concerts at Wash
ington Hall, and they have been attended by as
fashionable crowd as we ever recollect TO have
seen since the time of Malibran. She is accom-
panied by distinguished young artist the violin.
We remember hearing the vocalist Cinti about five
years ego, at the Opera Comique in Paris She is
veteran in the art. She has probably been on the
French stage quarter of a century, and her expe'
rence and skill can hardly be paraleled in the pre-
sent day unless set Grisi in opposition to her.
In point OF voice the without the compass or vo'
lume either of Mrs. Sutton or of CASTELAR,, but with
the materials she possesses, she gives grace and
finish that attracts every one, and gives delightful
impressions to her audience. Artot, the vioinlst,
Is OF the same school as that in which she is so dis
tinguished feature. We have had several violin.
lists of great merit here bat amongst them, perhaps
none possessed the singular versatility and genius
OF Wallace; but on the violin, as single instru.
ment. Artot is probably superior to Wallace in
finish, though he by ne means possesses his extra
ordinary genius for music. Wallace divides
his attention between two instruments, either
of which is sufficient to occupy the &c
Mus of any artist. We perceive those two
distinguished artists, Demoreau and Artot, intend to
give another concert, and we have TO doubt it will
be attended by all the dildtani, but we particularly
recommend all artists, especially all vocalisls, to be
there whenever she sings, for they can learn much
from her, even though they possess many qualities
In greater degree than she does.
We perceive also that Max Behrer, so celebrated
on the vloncello in Europe, has just arrived after
an extensive tour OF nearly year. through the
South and West, and also through Canada Bohrer
Ia also an artist without an equal on his particular
instrument, and we understand he intends 10 give
concert sometime next week, in which he will
be assisted by Mrs. Watson and Rakeman No
doubthe will have brilliant assemblage, for he
has just come IN the harvest time when every
thing Is prosperous and encouraging.
Mrs. Sutton, who possesses undoubtedly one Of
the richest voices amongst the vocaliss, combined
with which is her good taste and finish, is we learn
engaged in some negotiation for the revival of the
Italian Opera We have not learned the particulars
but as soon az we do we sha II announce them
CASTELAR, has just returned from Boston, where
she set all the musical people in phrenzy OF delight
by her extraordinary power and the compass of her
voice.
All these fashionable artists must be treated with
just discrimination, and their several merits must
be fairly given to the world without any feeling OF
Partially, or any sentiment that may create any
rivalry amongst them. They may have their zeal
ousies, as others have, but we shall enter into
Of them, but shall be always happy to do justice to
all.
Russell is at Washington. and doubtless he is de-
lighting his audiences with his simple ballads, and
astonishing them by his novel adaptations of the
30 iloqules of our most eminent dramstists.
De Begins his just returned from Canada, and
may probably become an important unit in the revi.
val Of the Italian Opera. In const quence of the
want of Croton water in Montreal, and the necessi
~ Of submitting to the OF water from bad springs
there, he has been rather unsIer the weather but
We understand he is recovering very rapidly and is
expected 10 be perfectly well IN lew days we 90
not conceive that Italian Operas be got up here
without DE Beguis as the principal buffo.
In short, we are only on the commencement OF
The fashionable season, but We do not remember in
twenty years that it ever began with such favorable
appearances. Business is getting brisk, money is
circulating, every one is getting something to do,
the taoIs are getting more Tor making breecbes,
the shoemakers expect 10 get more Tor their handy
craft, the sailors want more, every one is gong
ahead, and Mr.. Webster is going TO set the wing
party on its legs again; in short the whole world
expects property, with the exception OF Mr.. Van
Buren, and the democratic party, which seems to be
on its last legs-and them we advise to attend the
theatres and the concert rooms, as a solace under
their calamitous loss Of every thing TO which they
aspire. t.,,y. NJ esrssife
