ADJUSTMENTS.
This evening at the ST. Charles is the first
night of the new Italian opera company. &c Nor
| ma is to be performed. Madame Rose Devries
| will take the part Of Norma and Sig. Lorini,
the celebrated tenor, will make his first appear
| ance in this city in Polftone. We are glad to
see this frightening out of the opera season, and
we do not doubt that as full and fashionable
houses will be seen at the St. Charles this week
as were during the last. The part of Norma,
in which that charming artist Madame Rose
Deyries appears tonight, is one in which she
particularly excels, and in which she received
the most enthusiastic applause at her appear
anee in it lately.
new domestic drama entitled 1.-The Old
Plantation, or Uncle Tom as he Is, is to be pro-
dueed at the st. Charles during the coming
week in which the author, that excellent actor,
Mr.. Geo. Jamison, will personate Uncle Tom
The piece is not mere burlesque, but is q re-
presentation of negro life in it's varied phases as
it is found on the plantations, the fidelity of
which description will be recognised by every
one ct all conversant with negro life or eharac-
ter. We have no doubt but it will be well
received The public has had enough and
become sick of mere caricature of negro charac-
ter, but just delineations will always be success
full. In Mr.. Jamisons performance Of the part
of Uncle Tom we shall expect to see Cuffy in
all his glory.
At Placide's tonight Shakspeares sublime
play Of the Tempest z with the same cast as
on previous nights, will be played, and also the
farce of '' Capital Match
We learned at q late hour last night that the
opera Of g Norma which was to have been
performed at the st. Charles tonight, is una
voidably postponed until Wednesday night, as
Sig. Lorini, who was to have taken the part of
Poitaone, is unable to appear owing to a severe
intermittent fever. As he the only tenor at
tached to the company adapted to the part the
opera is necessarily postponed. Vieti and Pico
are expected by the next steamer from Havana
which will probably arrive by Wednesday, SO
that should Sig Loriui's indisposition continue
the opera will probably not again be suspended,
as the former can fill his part.
