KoFF's DIPLOMACY Works WELL-The master
~ diplomacy Of the Chevalier Wikoff in con-
nection with the two italian Opera troupes and
the Academy of Music, has evidently reduced
the Chevalier Webb to capitulation. AL the
doDkeys Of his oyster house clique, Including
the long tailed donkey Of the Courier, the
cross- grained and excessively bilious donkey Of
the Tribune, and the little woolly donkey Of
the Times, have become as tractable and docile
as ever were o lot Of donkeys following q buu-
die of hay. Heretofore, between the two Ope
ra troupes, they were like the donkey in tine fa-
BILE between two bundles Of hay-so puzzled
which to choote that he lost both while max
ing up his mind. 1t is evident now, on all
sides, that the diplomacy Of Wikoff is infinitely
superior to that Of Webb-that Webb is van
quished, and that his o. ster house critics, like
the donkeys of Cochin China, as related by
Monsieur Hue, have had q stop put upon their
late discoroant bray ing by the tying Of some
heavy weight to their tails sufficient to keep
them down This singular discovery of tue
Asiatics, that the donkey has NO desire to bray,
and becomes perfectly manageable with stone
to his tail, has thus been turned to the best
practical account by the Chevalier WkoR
Tits just the policy which the Know Nothings
have been pursuing to the old, boistsrous,
braying dorkeys OF the whig and democratic
parties.
We congratulate the public upon the success
OF the Chevalier Wikof's operatio tact and
tactics. Instead of having the Academy OF
Music closed, subject to the wishes Of the Che
waller Webb and bis oyster house troupe of
satellites, Wikoff has thus secured us not one,
but two, in quick succession, Of the best Opera
companies, in the best style, and in the highest
perfection of art. The public are satisied-
the Opera is established in New York-.he
problem is solved. The Chevalier Webb, we
believe, is high chuIchman. Let him prove
the quality of his cloth by doing justice to
