CITY ITEMS.

ITALIAN OPERA-BuRTos's THEATRE large and
brilliant audience was present last night at the per-
formance of II Tropatore. There was an array of
toilets and a crowd Of strange faces. Operas hur-
red-up" cannot be adequately well done as whole,
though going well at times; hence the orchestra par
ticularly, was occasionally hesd.over-heels The
applause was ample, however, and the audience de-
lighted.
Signora Csrant improved on her first appearance.
Sgnorina Vestvali adequately Gypseysh, andifthe
orchestra had not been bewldered, could have made
decided hit in her principal role. AmOdio, being
improved In voice last evening, gave his audOnte and
hero air finely. BiignOi was encOred and called
before the curtain for his solo,
Dir. Burton has made hit with opera, mauger the
hot weather. With such houses bis brief must
be profitable.
On Friday Signorina vestvali will appear in the
part and opera of "Romeo," by Belni.
Among the passengers by the Arabia was Madame
BrezzoliDi, the famous soprano.
