THEATRIcALs-The theatres did very good bu-
siness last week, particularly the Park, probably
owing to the circumstance of its being the week of
the races, which brought vast concourse of stran-
gers to town. The Seguins have closed their en-
gagement and have gone to Philadelphia, to sing in
new opera by Mr.. Fry, of which a great deal has
been said. few years ago, these Fry's, of Phila-
dephia, brought out English version of an Italian
opera, "Norma," but it did not by any means sue
coed SO well as was expected. We very much fear
that the new opera, now ushered into the world
with SO much noise, will not answer the anticipa-
tons which have been raised. 1t is good rule
among opera composers and poets, as well as pio-
neers-snever holloa till you are out of the woods"
Castle Garden has been very well attended on the
pleasant evenings, but the weather for few days
back has been rather dsagreeable. Tonight, the
avorite and delightful opera "The Barber of Seville
is to be brought out and if the evening be pleasant
a crowd will no doubt throng that magnificent
place.
Tryon is making considerable Roadway in the
Bowery Theatre, and is taking the place Of Hamblin
and the old house very rapidly. The talented and
highly popular young actor, Mr.. Clark, takes his
benefit tonight and capital bill is presented MIR.
