THE OPERA.

Madame Cora DE WHHoRsT appeared as Elvira
in 1. Paritani, on Tuesday night The theatre was
quite as well and fashonably filled as it had been
the night before, and the highest appreciation of
her exquisite voice shown in the almost breath
less attention with which she was listened to by a
large portion of her audience. Music however,
seems to affect different people differently, and
there were some persons present who manifested an
almost continual disposition to clap their hands,
which was, doubtless, very well meant but not a
htte out OF place in the brilliant passages of an
opera. Madame De WILHoRsr, eminently deserves
the appreciation which she has everywhere re-
celved, and must certainly be ranked as among the
most delightful singers on the stage Her
hlstrlomc powers are by means equal to her vocal
lzaton, but in this respect her fault is ONLY that
which has distinguished several of the most cele-
prated prime dome, and is one which she will very
probably overcome. JUNcA, with his powerful
and thoroughly cultivated voice, gave universal
satisfaction, and with AMoD1o and BRtGSor1 Of
whom we have before spoken, ably sustained the
leading roles. Last night, Madame CoLsoN made
her second appearance in the popular opera of La
ftde dW Regiment, and again greeted by
crowded house. The graceful and perfectly natu-
raj manner of the light -heart ted child of the Regi-
ment, was happily exhibited as the reckless and
violent emotions of Violetta had been faithfully
portrayed.
The performance concluded with the second
act OF L"cretia Borgia, in which PARoDI appeared
with her usual success. Thus ended our short
Opera season, but we sincerely hope that NJ. SrRA-
KosCH may be induced to come among us again
with his excellent troupe.
Mr.. FORD does not mean to let us suffer for the
want of amusement, however, as he already an
nounces for this evening the beautiful play of
ga Winters Tale" which will be presented with
an unusually strong company.

After having tried in vain TO encourage the crll-
tvation of the Cotton plant in India, the Man
chester Manufacturers are turning their atten-
ton to Africa. What success their efforts will
meet with in that direction can only be determined
by the experiment which DR.. LIVINGSTONE has been
especially charged TO make. At present, their
hopes are jubilant. Lord BRoUGHAM, whose in
tense opposition to Slavery is well known, has al
ready publicly expressed his satisfaction that Man.
chester was about to be supplied with Cotton from
a new quarter. He read to the National Associa-
ton for the promotion of Social Science-or,
as Lord LYNDHUEsT once called it. the socio-
logical gathering-an extract from letter
written on the Zambesi river by DR..
LIVINGSTONE, in which the writer stated that, 'as
the expedition proceeded up the river, they found
ION both shores an almost general and easy, and
economical cultivation; and that no doubt ex-
listed that with very little encouragement, and
Every little addition to their means in point OF
machinery, the article of cotton might advan-
''tageously and proftably be cultivated on that
"river." This, at least, looks hopeful for Man
chester, but there appears TO be one slight draw
back to the probability of receiving supplies o.
cotton from that quarter for some time yet &c
come. A previous communication from DR.. LIy-
1NGsToNE-which Lord BRoUGHAM did not read
inasmuch it would have exhibited the Other
side of the tapestry-stated that the fierce wars
which then agitated that promising cottor
district would prevent the natives from extending
the cultivation of the plant until peace was Sc
cured. This puts somewhat different face upon
the matter. The soil and the climate may be every
thing that is desirable, but something more thar
soil and climate are required in the production o
n staple article of Commerce. One especial need
is thrifty and industrious people, and secon(
condition of successful culture is that they shall
not be harassed by desoating wars. As it ha:
not been proved, in the first place, that the free
Africans on the Zambesi are any fonder of hare
work, or more provident in their habits than thu
free Africans of jamaica and as it is also eviden
that they are occasionally subjected to hostile in
cursions we are incliLed to believe that our cottor
States of the South, will in all probability, pretty
much monopolize the market for their staple
commodity for some years yet to come.

THE JAFFA 0UTRAGE-ANoTHER OUTRAGE UPON AN ENG
LIsH LADY.
From, the Boston Journal, Oct 261
letter Just received from Beirut bearing date of
September 90, says:
'There is no truth about Moslem disturbances at
Tripoli and Lattakia
''The trial Of the Jafa murderers was continued
in Beirut, and the Jafa mejiis Tor counc) with wit
nesses to the number of sixty, obliged to come
on here Mr.. Peters, the Vice Consul, sent on from
ConstantinOpe by our Minister there, pressed the
business quite theoretically before the arrival ofour
new Consul, Mr.. Barclay. Since he came he has
been forcing matters to crisis with equal if
greater determination. Five men, convicted by the
Jaffa mejiis, brought up from that place, but
only one of them, on examination, could be proved
to have any participation in the affair. After cross
examining the mejiis, however, for several days,
new discoveries were made, and a few days since
two of the real murderers lodged in the Beirut
Jail. Two more have been taken and are at ,Iaffa,
and Mr.. Barclay has gone down with twenty sol
diers to b. ing them up. The fifth is known, and
officers Of Justice on his trail.
''Another sad affair occurred near Jerusalem
about fortnight since. An English lady spending
the summer in tents with the family of Mr. Finn,
the English Consul, started to go alone to Jerusa-
lem. Nothing was heard of her till few DAYS az

EXPLORATIONS IN THE RED RIVER CoUNTRY-Mr.
Dawson, engineer of the exploring party sent by
our government to the Red River Territory return
ed by the last trip of the Rescue, and is in this
city. He will prepare his rrnnrts of surveys far
made, and will return to the territory about the
middle of winter, to rejoin the parties whom he has
left there carrying the work. We understand
territory between the Red River and the Assinib0ne
prairie country. well wooded and is exceedingly
fertile. Mr.. Dawson brings with him specimens of
Ignite, which, we believe, place it beyond question
that considerable deposits of coal will be found in
various parts of the country, more particularly on
the Souris river. The indications of its existence
are very numerous. 1t has been known for a length
of time that on the Saskatchewan plains near the
base of the mountains, large beds of coal existed,
but it has hitherto been by means certain that it
was to be found further to the eastward. The dis
covery supplies additional reason for believing
that the first railway to the Pacific will be made
through these magnificent prairies. The opening
of the stage route from St. Louis to San Francisco
has produced in the American papers proofs of the
unfitness of the Southern territory to support
railway across the continent. We find in the itin-
erary of passenger who through to st.
Louis by the first expedition, statements of long
Journeys performed without water; and even at the
stations the road, the water is furnished by
of expensive wells. In such a country, of course,
there is no wood, neither has coal been discovered
south of the boundary. At no point in the British
route would there be a scarcity of either fuel
water. From Lake Superior to the Red River there
abundant supplies of the finest timber, and be-
yond that coal be found almost throughout the
entire region.
