Musical Matters.

Palmo's Theatre opens on the 10th with opera
and ballet, the latter alternate nights for which
are engaged M. Desjardins and Martin. We would
recommend M. Korponay to introduce the Polka
and other fashionable Dances as no doubt there is
much anxiety existing to witness them performed
in truly national manner. Mad'le Borghese has
returned to town, refreshed and invgorated by the
waters Of Saratoga and the sea air Of Newport,
looking more beautiful thap1ever. Sgr. Valtelni
has recovered his temper through his recent So
journ at Bloominsdae, and will present the sweets
of such ever before the public. Signora Valteini,
we hope will come out in her proper place. Being
an artistic Of considerable promise, we are assured
she will ever command an adequate welcome.
Recently we have heard nothing OF Ole Bull,
but we presume he is al Newport, breathing the
sea air, and completing his new pieces.
Mr.. Jones has Just completed an original opera,
Of which good judges, who have. heard il, speak in
the highest terms, and say il will command great
popularity. The plot is taken from the Arabian
Nights entertainments, and the music abounds
with the most beautiful melodies, OF an Eastern
style. Mad Otto ls likely TO be brought out in IT,
The piece is now in rehearsal at the Park, and
those who have witnessed the same, speak in the
greatest ecstacies Of the production.
