Hereafter, the double sheet of the Ney Yak
Herald will be published every Tuesday morning.
We have come to this conclusion, in order to ac-
commodate the vast body of new advertisers who
are pressing forward for admittance into the CO.
lumns of that edition of our Journal. The enter.
prise of publishing double sheet for the benefit
of the business community, has succeeded beyond
our most sanguine expectations; and although we
begin with the issue only Of one such sheet week:
ly, we mean gradually. to extend this accommoda,
ton, by publishing similar sheet, whenever me-
cessary, twice a week, gradually increasing the
arrangement, so as to be enabled fully to meet the
wants and wishes of this rapidly growing city, b.
the publication of double sheet every day. But,
for the present-and during tho approaching sun-
ner, when the activity of business slackens-
We shall restrict ourselves to the issue Of enc
double sheet each week and Tuesday is fixed
upon for the permanent day of issue. Advertisers
of oil kinds will please take notice of this an
nepncement, and govern themselves accordingly.

OrERA AND FAsHroN.-We understand that the
propretors Of the Opera House have made ar
engagements with Mr.. Maretzek, well known as
the accomplished director of the orchestra last
season, and that he viii take the whole manage
ment of the Opera into his hands next season. and
be, in fact, the manager This is quite curious
revolution in musical affairs and operate manage
ment; but perhaps not more so than many of the
movements connected with the history of the
Opera House for the last two years. Mr. Maret-
eek is German, an artist of very considerable
talents, and what Is more, understands his profess
sion, and has good deal of tact and business
ability.
The Italian Opera, and all that concerns it, has
been growing dreadfully unpopular during the last
two years; and the late tragic events in that neigh
borhood have not by any means diminished the
popularity. But if any man can succeed in resus-
citating on popular and practical basis, the re-
fined amusement of the Italian Opera, probably
Mr.. Maretzek will be able to succeed in doing so.
He must, however, change many of the rules and
regulations which have hitherto been adopted II
possible, the whole thing should be popularlzed,
and the subscription system utterly abolished.
The little set of exclusives-some of them very
respectable people, and others anything but res
pectable-who monopolized the best seats at the
Opera during the last two years, should be put on
the same footing with the great mass of the in
telligence and responsibility of this city, who do
not make much noise here or at the watering
places. Nothing but popular system can sue
coed in this any other kind of amusement in
such city US New York.

Owing chiefly to the awful ignorance and stupidity

tee, good deal of alarm has been created about
the cholera in this city. Is it, indeed, impossible
to get full plain, and Ineligible report about all
this subject, from competent and reliable sources
Why does not the Medical Society of the city and
county, appoint committee. not of humbugs with
great names, but intelligent and competent physi-
clans, who may be able to give the public correct
information =! 1t is said that large quantity Of
damaged hams were sold at three cents pound,
in the ncghborhood of the Five Points, just before
the Of alleged AsiatIc cholera appeared there.
How are the facts Again, we call for sensible
report, so that the public r3ay really know what
the facts are in relation TO this most important
