Mr.. DEMpsTER's BALLAD SoIREEs.-This gentle
man gave the first of these entertainments last even
ing at the New York Society Library, Broadway;
the attendance was not very numerous, but highly
respectable The absent admirers of the sweet
simple ballad have lost treat by not being present
which, we fear, not even attendance at the two
next soirees will compensate for. Many of the
pieces were encored. The song of the " Blind Boy
was most feelingly and sweetly sung, as was ' The
Lament of the Irish Emigrant." The Scottish bal
lad of Mary o. Castle Carey" we feel assured,
will become great favorite among the fairer por-
ton of the community. The new national song Of
of "The Death of Warren" was received with
applause There is little doubt but that on all pub
lie occasions and national festivals, this will be IN
especial rcquisition. The next entertainmenttakes
place on Friday evening.

The PoLIcE.-Our city is at present overrun with
rowdes and abandoned women. Broadway is so
infested In the evenings with drunken oafers and
shameless females that no person can walk along it
without being shocked and nsulted at every cor
ner. As soon as the stores, which close at eight
O'Clock, are shut up, gangs of rowdes cluster about
the doors, smoking, shouting, and disappearing.
We allude particularly to the blocks from Warren
street up to Canal In front OF several taverns
too in the same neigh5orhood, which are dis
grace to Broadway the scene every night resem-
bes the Five Points. On one side of the street a
crowd OF foreign vagabonds and on the other of
native rowdies congregate, and from dusk till mid
night they obsruc the thoroughfare, making beast
y remarks on the ladies' as they pass, and shocking
every ear by their ribaldry and basphemy.
Now, do the new corporation indeed forget
can they possibly have forgotten, that it was to rid
the city of such nuisances that they were elected
1t would indeed seem that they have forgotten this
But they may depend upon it that the public will
not permit them TO let the remembrance of their
duty thus escape them. Pray, gentlemen, do make

ITALIAN OPIRA-Stav)a PALMo's BevEPfr-
I'VE perceive that Signor Paine has Advertised
for benefit on Friday evening, and from what we
have heard of the programme TO be presented on
the occasion, we can state that it will be very
rich one, indeed, and will probably command
great deal of attention. The last benefit, that OF
De Begins, which we supposed would have been
the last night of the season-was one of the best
houses we have seen, and trust that the benefit
OF Signor Palmo will not lack either in numbers
or popularity.
Mr.. Palmo comes forward on this occasion
without the ridiculous mummery or machinery of
complimentary committees, meeting at the Aston
House, or any other hotel, passing resolutions,
drinking healths and making great fuss and great
fools OF themselves order to produce prodigious
impression on the public mind, and extract as much
as they can from the public pocket in order to fill
treasury emptied by gross mismanagement. The
Signor comes forward on his own merits, modest
and unassuming, and pretending to nothing but the
establishment of an opera house, the permanent
vival OF an Italian opera in this city, in a style OF
responsibility and excellence never before success
fully attempted here. II is true we have had fire.
quent attempts to do this, but none succeeded till
Sgnor Palmo came into the field His merits are
well known to the fashionable and enlightened
public. Whilst other managers by their bad con-
duct, or imbecty, or want of discretion, have
been for the last few years gradually running the
legitimate drama-the English Opera-and every
other species of the higher order of amusements,
into wretchedness and oblivion, Mr.. Palmo has.
in one season. established the ncontrovertible fact
that Italian Opera can exist in this city, season
after and year after year. If any one,
therefore, deserves a liberal encouragement, and
splendid benefit, we think Mr. Palmo presents TIE
best cnims for those proofs of public favor.
Look at the history OF our two principal theatres,
during the last few years-the Bowery and the
Park They have been characterized by nothing
but series of msfortunes produced by mismanage-
ment-want of enterprse-bad judgment-and
general imbecity. Indeed, the only theatres that
have succeeded of late years, have been the Chat
ham, the Olympic, and Niblo's all of which have
been conducted on the modern principle of econo-
my, attention, enterprise, and energy, without
trusting to antquated reputation that exists no
where but in imagination, the batteries of fool
ish friends. Mr. Palmo has given ample evidence
that he unders ands the spirit of the present time
although he does not make claim upon the public
to raise fund for the purpose of going out to Eu
rope to secure attractive novelties" He expects
some requital for what he has already done, and il
he even should so or send to Europe he certainly
wont come back with a flea in his ear, and without
any attraction at all.

This is certainly very important movement on
the part Of the Gillian government. With colony
settled at Port Famine, which must OF course
rapidly increase, the Straits of Magellan may yet
become navigabe without the danger heretofore
attending passage through them. This will con-
sderably lessen the time now taken to go from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, and will answer most i'm

ANIMALS of medicine, and also having obtained
the entire confidence and being used in the
private practice OF almost the whole body Of
the medical faculty, in the v S., Europe, Asia,
