The METROPOLITAN THEATRE-FRsT APpEAR-
ANcE OF MADAME ANNA THILLoN.-The Metropol-
itan, as matter of course was more densely crowd
ed last evening than ever before. Not only the
seats all taken, but great many were obliged to
stand in different parts of the house, all eager and
impatient to hear the first notes in California of the
world-renowned cantatrce, Anna Thilon. Expec-
tation was on tiptoe and long before the curtain
rose the house was packed with ladies and gentle
men who had heard the famous songstrcss in other
lands, of others equally impatient who had heard
much Of the rich and silvery tones of the famous
songstress. The performances chosen for the
opening night were the opera of the Grown
Diamonds" It is not our purpose at this time to
istics of Madame Thilons singing but rather to no.
tice her reception. We will endeav0r on some other
day to give our Impressions on this latter head To
say that her reception was cordial would be tame
1t was enthusiastic When her voice was first heard
and she came bounding on to the stage, the ap-
plause was loud and long, and from first to last,
whenever the music would possibly tolerate inter-
rupton, it broke out almost boisterously Whatever
cxtravagant notions she may have formed of the
welcome she was to receive Judging from that of
others who had preceded her, she must have been
more than satisfied. During the whole of her brief
engagement here she can hardly fail Of drawing
equally good houses as that Of last evening. Our
people are liberal to encourage art, and occasion
like the present Is one Of rare occurrence, and it
will be long again before notes like hers can again
be listened to. We would gladly allude to the
others by whom she was supported, especially to
Mr.. Hudson, Mr.. Leach, and Miss Gould, who most
materially contributed to render the performances
acceptable. But this, too we must defer to another
time

Seasons" will be sung tonight at the Musical Hall,

who wish to hear some good music, and at the same
time assist the ophan, will not forget to attend.

ACcIDENT.-Three painters, at work upon stag
ing at the American theatre yesterday afternoon,
engaged In painting the dome, were considerably
injured by the falling Of the staging They were
engaged In painting at the time at the prosccnium,
and fell about twenty feet. All were French. Mr..
Albert one, and another was Mr.. Prom, decora-
tive artist Of talent seldom excced by persons in
his branch OF the profession for bold accurate and
graceful drawing, clear and harmonious color, and
forcibe light and shade None of the party had any
bones broken, and all will probably be well in a
couple of weeks. Mr.. Jones, with commendable
liberality directed them to be provided with the
best medical attendance at his charge-dhd, 10Th
