The TEXAS MEETING IN TANMANY HALL LAST
NIeHT.-We give to day copious and faithful re-
port OF the proceedings at Tamman any Hall last night
These Texas meetings are now noticeable chiefly
as they indicate the activity, squabbles, and in
trgues OF the various cques OF Office beggars They
are all intended merely for effect at head quarters,
and II is really laughable to observe the struggngs
which take place for a chance to repeat some Of
the old "catechism," as Mike Walsh calls it, about
Texas. The people have already decided the ques.
tion, and that too in spite of not few of those
who are now loudest mouthed in its favor The
enthusiasm with which Mr.. Calhoun's name was
received by the meeting was remarkable, almost
matching in intensity the feeling displayed by the
groans and hisses on the meHtion of Governor
Wright in the same place few weeks since The
two facts present striking commentary on the flu.

persons assembled on the occasion. Two or three
bnef addresses were delivered, and every thine

PRooREss or THE Cry The growth Of the city

the vicinity OF UnionSquare within the last year, and

The PosTAGR BnL.-So then, after all, the Post
age Bill has been taken up in the House of Re-
presentaves and there is comfortable assurance of
its being made law. And yet this great mea-
sure Of universal interest and value, has only es-
capped by the narrowest chance in the world being
thrown overheard at this session OF Congress
We believe that the country will have to thank
the independent press for the passage of this Bill
In the squabbles and intrigues Of the mere party
politicians, the public interests are uniformly for
gotten, or thought OF only when they can possibly
be made to serve the "base uses'' of partizanshp
But In this case the independent newspaper press
has SO perseveringy pressed the subject of postage
reform, that the political tricksters and traders
have been obliged to yield, and we trust now to be
able. very soon, to congratulate the country on the
success of its patriotic and unabated efforts.

PALMo's THRATRR.-Last evening the burlesque
opera Of "La! Som Am De Beauties" taken
from the opera of La Somnambula," was re-
peated at this establishment, and elected roars Of
laughter from a numerous and highly respectable
audience Mrs. Phillips and Sharpe in the charac
ters OF Dnah Crow and Rosa, exhibited their mu
seal powers to a great extent, which called forth
the applause of those present. The tenor parts Of
Mr.. Holman told we'll, particularly in the Duets
with Mrs. Phillips. Messrs Lynch and Murphy
also acquitted themselves well IN their respective
characters, exciting considerable laughter by their
comic humor Mr.. Kavanagh as primo basso was
equally successful, and his good bass voice told
we'll in the chorusses. Mr.. Kneass, the director,
deserves every credit for his arrangement of tn.
music. The new piece promises to be still
greater favorite with the public, particularly the
mirth and music loving portion Of it, than the
"Virginia Girl" and is we'll worth seeing. There
are other entertainments between the acts equally
novel and interesting.

The STREETS AND THE WRATHER.-Every body
remembers how thrilingly Dibden has sung about
the "Sweet little cherub that sits up ao," to take
care Of the soul Of ''poor Jack" It would seem
as if some equally watchful and benevolent spiri,
above occasionally took charge of the streets OF
New York. Recently there was every reason to
dread the breaking forth of some pestental fever
from the indiscrbably filthy state of our thorough
fares, but down came a deluge of rain from the
heavens, and in single night the streets were
cleansed of the filth and impurities which had
been accumulatlng for months. The city now &C.
tually looks like the abode of civilized human be-
ings The sidewalks on Broadway are positively
clean, and down town the crossings are passible
Yesterday the air was balmy as in the
month Of May, and the gentle breezes, soft
and fresh, "sent into the heart summer feeling !"
Broadway was a moving panorama Of fashion,
beauty, elegance. millinery, folly and loaferism-
Winter, like the "natives," appears to be fairly
broken up.

ITALIAN OPRRA.-Palmo has not leased his thea
tre to De Begns as is stated in some OF the papers,
but the veteran Figaro is very busy drawing up
plans, and concocting schemes, and entering into
negotiations for the re-estabshment of Italian
Opera in this city. The Signor's plan is on mag.
niicent scale. He proposes to engage four prime
donne-two soprani, and two contralti, two " first
rate" tenori, four bassi, two bassi cantanti, and
two primi buff also, two "excellent" secwnde
donne, one second tenor and one second basso. He
has negotiated with Pico and Sanquirico, who ex-
press readiness to enter into the project, and VAL
telna, it is supposed, will also coincide. New
operas are to be produced, including n don Giopam-
nj, II Matrimomio di Figaro, the two chef d 'euvre
OF Mozart.
Such is the project of De Begnis, who, having
settled his late affair." with the brigadier-poet by
bringing the latter to his knees, is now devoting all
his energies to carry it out. The plan certainly
looks admirably. The Signor has had great expe.
rience as manager of the Opera, and he has our
best wishes for his success. We have even now
amongst US materials for ON excellent operatic
company-Madame Otto, Madam Arnault, and ad.
mirable Rapetti, and others. A good scheme for
the Reconstruction of Italian Opera, energetically
carried out, ought to succeed and must succeed
