EARLY yesterday noruirg placar,s were post
'esi up through the city stating that The crew Of
the British steamer had threatened violence to
all Who dared express their opinions at the En-
gllsh Aris'2cratic Opera House" and calling Gil
all working men to stand BY their lawful rights
IN consequence Of this aud similar threats a
large body Of police was ordered 70 attend at the
Opera topse, and in case this should not be auf-
hclent to preserve order, The Seventh Regiment,
Col, Duryea, and two troops of horse Capts Var

In anticipation Of riot the rush for tickets
wac very great, and before night, none were to
be had. The crowd increased with every nc
ment, and when we came upon the ground, at

way to the boWery We're nearly full. Inside, the
house was filled but not crowded, aud the am
phltheatre was not more than half full I he ger

and it was hoped at FIRST that there would be no
serious attempt at disturbance We noticed
however; thai the windows had been carefully
boarded up and The doors baricadell--the object
OF which was afterwards made manifest
The first two scenes passed over with roeif-
esous welcome to Mr.. Clarke as llalcola, The

the signal for perfect storm of cheers, aroans
and hlasns, The whole audience rose, anel the
1tlne-tenths Of it Who We're friendly to Macready
cheered, waving tlleir hats and hondarehiefs i
large body i. the parqnette, with others in the
