FITzJAMEs's BESEFIT.-There was quite
fair-not crowded-attendance at the Opera last

sion, and the fact made marked difference in
her singing. She has been trained in a good
school, and her excellent method almost makes
amends for the unsympathetic character of her
voice. Still we do not think hervocsl talent, even
with more severe training and familiarity with
the stage which will allow her completely TO
identity herself with the character she takes, suf
fcient TO compensate for the social sacrifice her
new vocation demands The duett with Trulh ia
the second act best displayed her capacity: it
was carefully rendered, and warmly received by
the audience.
Fitz-James achieved quite triumph in her
new character Her singing of Grace Grace
was well seceived though her voice showed an
occasional sharpness which was unpleasant;
she was called out again, aud cordially applouded
But in the scend from lombard, she quite
took the house by surprise. She gave the brisk
allegro with exceeding spirit and taste. Her voice
is amezzo-suprano, of agreeable quality add under
good management; her gestures, though now and
then showing little Of the dsnseuae-are always
graceful. She was called out twice and vOcifer-
ously encored-a compliment which, under the
circumstance, must be considered as decided
success. Her Terpsichorean performance at the
close was made more interesting from her previous
appearance as a vocalist. Ii she could find some
way to combine her two talents in the same r6ie'
we should have the stage novelty of the rarest
and most attractive kind.
We should not omit to notice Bertucca's grace
ful performance on the harp, in the center ofthe
orchestra. Her appearance among the stringed
instruments excited the good humored applause
of the audience
