It is generally admitted by the musical world, and
amongst critical amateurs that La sonnsmbuls In
artistic design in pathos and neral conception, Is
of Belinis most exquisite productions and most
tsply is no bad criterion Of the musical taste and
knowledge Of New York audience to have to say that

CIRcus-BowERY AMrHrrHEATRE.-Fun and merri-

cue, where Gosain and Donaldson the famous clowns
and comic singers, are performing The various per-
forman in the way Of horsemanship vautng, gym

TABERNAcLE-HERz AND SIvoRI's CoNcERr.-A very
fashionable and audience amounting to about
three thousand persons assembled last evening" In the
Tabernae witness the last appearance of these cee-
brated artists. The concert brilliant, and though
did not admire all the points of the pieces performed
we were AZ well I'D the public, satisfied with ie
,em5ie The overture of civilian Tell" was first
introduced by the orchestra Its sublime beginning,
which opens with morceau d'ensen6Ie, PLAYED by six
viooncel was executed with taste and ability rms
charming passage belongs to that romantic school of
Rossipi which had so many imitstors David in his
DESERT has initiated this Introduction for the sun
rise" Of his chef dGupre. The second part Of this
overture did not correspond to its first. We the
harms and the trumpets They made such discordant
noise out of time and harmony that we could not
cognise the talented musicians who ordinarily play
under Signor Rapetti's able leading M. Knoop, who
came mex displayed fine specimen of his musical
knowledge, in Pot Pourri" OF his own composition
though his notes We're not strong enough for
such large hall The singer, Signor Rossi, sang
TOT his debut Romanza di Maria di Rudenz,' which
We think possesses but little melody and wholly suit
his powers This barrytone who had been much
-poken Of IL really under his reput"tion The compass
OF mis- voice Ia small and his style quite ordinary We
remarked that he listened too much to himself IA
tempts TO make de ptftt are often failure In the
duo which he sang with Madame Poo, during tue
scond part Signor Rcss wanted OF those sarc
tic aud intoDatons which make the wit OF
this duo from the Elixir d. Amore Mr. Macfar-

he requisite nstru and went of very well The
symphony written in 6s fiat Is solemn ana imposing

This overture reminded us OF the Symphonic Paste
ralen OF Beethoven IL 10 descriptive music and TINS
srve ia entirely Of the old school, aud passe Never
th.less, Mr. Macfarren's partition Is worthy OF no
tcs M Herr played he usually does with that abb
lily and perfection Of touch for which he lie so much
renowned His fourth concerto, In minor, is indeed
lovely compositions like its melody and the Rondo
Russe which ends it, has peculiar chei which Is al
ways appreciated by the public and the connosseurs
Mr. performance the panino, Of the Last Rose
OF Summer" also excellent This little instrument
possessea richness Of tone and purity OF sound
which make 1t grand acquisition for a fashionable
boudor An ordinary piano Is piece Of furniture, bu
a panino is really jewel Madame Pico rendered the
