FIRES. There were two fires in the city yes
terday. The first broke out about S, A. M, in
q stable belonging to the residence Of the late
John Robinson, Esq, situated on Franklin, be-
tween 9th aud 9TH streets. The building, which
was old aud not of much value, was destroyed.
The second fire broke out about half past 8
o'clock last evening It occurred in the bell aud
brass foundry of Mr.. S. D. Denoon, on Main, be.
tween 9Th aud 9th streets. The fremen turned
out aud promptly succeeded in extinguishing it
ere much damage had been done.
Both of these fires were unquestionably the
work of incendiaries.

SlGNoRA STEFfENoNE's OPERA TROUPE gave a
brilliant entertainments at the Theatre Friday eve
ming. The attendance, we are sorry to say, was
slim. True, the dress circle was partially filled
with the beauty and fashion of the city, but the
parquette and second tier presented beggarly
account of empty boxes. The performance.
however, was spirited and brilliant Signora
Steffenone sang aud played admirably, and was
most ably sustained by Signors Taffauelli and Ar.
nodi. The first and third acts of Verds beautiful
opera of Erna nj, were rendered with briancy
and dramatic effect never equalled on our boards.
Signora Steffenone's ssElyira was chaste in con-
ception and brilliant in execution, whilst Siguora
TaffanelIi's Don Ruy de Silva was by common
consent admitted to be faultess. He possesses
rich barrytone voice. sings with great accuracy
and animation. and is withal an excellent actor.
Signora Arnold, (the tenore) who personated the
character Of the Bandit Erna ri, sang sweetly,
but to our conception he falls below the standard
of first rate actor. Signora Bangini sang an
aria from Somnambula quite sweetly-the fasci-
nations of handsome face and finely moulded
form assisting materially her vocazation. But
the gem of the evening was the last act of the
opera of Maria di Rohan. The music was su
perb and the acting of Signora Steffenone chaste,
vigorous and natural. Signora Taffanelli and
Arnold also played with great spirit and effect.
Indeed, we scarcely recollect seeing on any occas-
lon, the passions of the human heart more beau
fully portrayed than they were in this act by
Siguor Tahane.
Signora Steffenone, it is needless to say, is the
bright, particular star" of the troupe. Her
tinging eicied the warmest Plaudits, and not a
few are indisposed to admit that she has any SUI
perior, Saving Sontag and Alboni) in this coun-
try.
We understand that an effort will be made to
induce the troupe to gvie another entertainment
before leaving for the North. We trust the ef-
fort may prove successful, because we are con-
vinced that the people of Richmond will extend
TO this highly talented troupe the countenance
so justly duo, when they learn that it embra-
ces, beyond all doubt, the most talented and effec.
tive artistes we have yet seen in this city.

~ Yesterday evening we had the
Measure of a short chat about things
generally" with our friend Col. W.
J. A. Roberts, and Mr.. D. Mitchell
Of New Orleans. Though not SO ex-
pressed, we believe they were in search
Of some good place to sleep during
the coming session. Others desiring
comfortable quarters had better follow
the example. The town can comfart-
ably accommodate " the members,
but the hangers on, for small fayors Of
Office, are always so numerous-they
come so early, and stay so late, that 1t
is thew who overrun the magnificent
Hotels, of which this expanding city is
already possessed.
Col. Roberts, stands prominently
before the next legislature for the
Speakership. He numbers a host of
friends in New Orleans, where his
manly efforts were elloquently arrayed
against the great monied monopoly of
Slidell & Co. If Col Roberts is
elected Speaker of the House, we shall
regard it as good omen Of a better
condition of things.
