Sontag, Lablache, Nm Giuliani and Bertrand,
as well as Messrs. Gardoni and Ferrant have play
ed the principal parts; and the music of the new
composer sung with the most bewitching method
and perfection. The plot of this opera bua is very
good; and one of its features is to offer Lablache,

have been requested by many Americans resid-

sevcring, ungenerous, and unfair system adopted by
this company to break down the Collins and other
American transatlantic steamers. The American
public should understand at once the mode Of action
also adopted by the British Post Office to aid the
Cunard line in the accomplishment of their object.
The British steamers take freight from Liverpool to
America for forty dollars ton. The American
steamships have adopted the same tariff from Liver
pool, Southampton and Havre. But the Cunard
company have established line of small steam
boats from Havre to Liverpool, for the express
purpose of drawing of the Havre freight from the
American line. No complaint could be reasonably
made if the charges from Liverpool to New York
were the same goods shipped directly from
England to that city. But no, the Cunard COM
pany maintain the Liverpool and Havrc line Of
steamers not to freight at the usual prices,
but they bear all the expenses, and charge only |
quarter for freight brought by these steamers
from Havre that they charge on English goods.
That is to say, the Cunard company carry the |
valuable goods of France at loss of thirty dollars
Il ton rather than permit the iavre and South |
ampton lines to carry the goods at the usual
rates. This system is seconded by the English
government, and must prove fatal to all trans
atlantic lines, and OF course to navy Nor is |
this all, the only kind Of hostility which the
American steamers habtually meet from the |
English government and its employees. II often |
happens that American and an English steamer |
arrive ut about the time in Liverpool and at |
In all such cases it Is uniformly |
found that there is n delay, which cannot be |
planned of one or two days, in the transmission |

brought by the American steamer. What remedy |
