FRENCH OrKRA.--The second performance OF La
Favorie" went off extremely well last night, and we
can positively assert, that there never has been
brought out in New York an opera of that msgni-
tnde with such remarkable ensemble, from the
first bar to the last. There reigns throughout per-
feet symnetry-in the orchestra-the chorus-and
the singers Calve and Arnaud did extremely well
as on the first night. but Garry took the public by
surprise; ne sung with an entraim fire and express
sion, particularly in the third act, which, in connec-
ton with his rare and melodious voice, cannot fail
TO place him-with proper study, as he evidently is
a debutanf-in the first rank amongst baritones.
Much praise is due to Cpuriot, the first tenor of the
comic opera, for having taken upon himself minor
part; it materially contributed to the unity Of the
whole opera. Prevost's leading is the best we have
ever had in America he carries every thing along,
from his being fully identified with the part of every
individual performer he truly leads the singers
stead of following them. One of the most interest
ing features Of the opera is the chorusses, both
with regard to composition and execution; they
admirable. Mr.. Davis has really evinced uncom-
tact in the selection Of the company and all the
arrangements in general, and we are certain, that
his efforts will be crowned with success.
CASTLE GARpKN-A large audience again last
night were attracted to this delightful spot and found
beyond comparison the coolest and most delight
full spot in the city. The promenade outside was
thronged with VISITORS who were enjoying the cool
sea breeze and beautiful view Of the bay and sur
rounding scenery. The entertainments are varied
and interesting, comprising Overures, Ancient Sta
tuary, dancing and comic tableaux. Tonight a
most amusing bill is set forth.
NJ. n n "

excellent selection of entertainments is announced

Family in their astonishing and graceful PERFORM
ances, and the last new piece Of the "Trumpeter's
Daughter" In the course of the evening, Mr.. Ro
berts will sing the celebrated comic song by Parry,
called the Musical Wife This is an admirably va
ried bill of fare, and will, no doubt, at ract all Mr.
RS friends, and many of the strangers in the city

To RECRUIT HEALTH AND Envoy LIFE should
be the object of ALPHABETICALLY the trade bound of
the great towns with which the earth is dotted 1t
not every large city that affords such ample means
for this most necessary object of our existence as
"Old Gotham" herself. But be that as it may, they
are of little utility unless they are amply appreciated
by those who need it. We cordially respond to one
of the able writers of this country
go forth into tho fields
Ye jewellers in the city's troubled mart
Go forth to know the influence nature yields,
To sooth the weared heart"
And for this object nature in her all bountiful prov
dence has given us Hoboken; and it is pleasing to
know that it is daily growing in public estimation
Indeed it cannot be well otherwise-hundreds daily
flock this delightful spot to recruit fatigued nature
and hide from the busy turmoil of this fe if only
for few hours.
There are other spots to some-to many, equally
inviting-we have Staten Island, with the capacous
BAY, i,s splendid sablisbments-where every thing
that is needed for health and comfort is amply
provided. The beautiful ride along the beach
to Fort Hamilton affords both health and ex-
ercise, afording beneficial effects alike to the care
worn invalid and the pent up citizen. Here, too,
there is every comfort provided-every courtesy Of
fered, at the establishment of one of the best Of
caterers, Alonzo Reed and in addition to which,
the ride per steam packet, which now runs regularly
is worth more than all the expense or loss OF time
incurred. There are others too, in the immediate
nelghborhood equally worthy OF notice. The Tri-
ton Mansion House, at McComb's dam, is well
Long Branch, New Jersey, fall behind in respecta.
blity and accommodation, with the best Of sea
bathing. The Wlliamsburgh Cottage, too, affords
every accommodation that can be required. But
Pavilion, Rockaway, for all these comforts and ne
cessaries combined. Here the most. perfect seclu
sion may be obtained or, If it isdesired, the most
respectable and intelligent circle Of visitors
Nor are these the only places where these mos
desired objects are to be obtained On this island
we have some most beautiful retreats. There is
Nowlan's, near Harlem; the Abbey, Stryker's Bay,
and host Of Others What can be more delightful
than ride along me avenues, or otherwise to
LAKE MAHopAc-one Of the most quiet, beau
titiul places in the vicinity of this city, and those
fond Of fine SAILING, and good fishing, will find
every facility for the enjoyment OF these SPORTS
The lake is about seven miles in extent, and af.
ford some delightful places on its shores for picnic
parties. 1t is of those peaceful retreats where
the citizen can enjoy all the comforts of a pure
country life, undisturbed by the hustle and noise Of
a more fashionable watering place.

The vauted allies by Haunting folly trod,
And meath the temple Of the uplifted sky,
Go forth and worship God"
