1.-THE HueuENoTs AT THE NEW OPERA

This opera was again performed on Saturday
evening with the same ecat that attended its first
representation on Thursday evening, and a notice
of the same, which was unavoidably crowded out
in our last edition, will be found below:
Ed. Crescent: Another triumph was added to
the well-earned successes accomplished at this
magnificent lyric temple, in the production of this
masterpiece of the great Meyerbeer. On Thurs
day evening last large and fashionable audience
was present, and unanimous verdict of satisfac-
ton "recorded " in hearty outbursts of applause
and continued braves at certain intervals of the
performance.
The occasion was the true debut of Mile Gels
mar, in the part of Valentine; and, although APP
parently still suffering from her recent indispo-
stion, she substantiated, in the highest and most
fattcrng degree, the good opinion that was formed
of her at her first appearance rs Azucend in " The
Trovatore." She proved herself fully equal, and
in some parts really great, in the difficult role OF
Valentine; and in the last scene of the fourth act
with RdoA when she declares her love to him
the expressions of her countenance portraying
the feelings, and her postures and positions as an
actress, with her fine soprano voice, conjoinet
with the clear and powerful tenor of Matthew, pro
duced an electric sensation through the house
such as have not felt or seen Tor long time nnt
they were both complimentcd with hearty cal
| at the end of the act.
Mile Fetlengcr as Marguerite, in the first act
was in several points nearly half tone above tn
orchestra which caused some sharp and shril
tones, by no means pleasant; but she well re
deemed herself in all her other scenes and gave IL
the pure, sweet metal of her voice.

expression and animation into her acting, would
be much better. She dressed the character well ;
and, with her finely formed Developments, made a
very pretty picture.
Matthew as Raoul, fully equaed his already we'll
merted reputation, and in some scenes, partctl-
larry in the finale Of the fourth act in the Duet
with Valentine, was immense, with his synpa-
thetic and effective notes.
Genebrel, the great basso, az Marcel, fully as
stired ME that he had improved even uponhis we'll
known qualities az a highly cultivated artist; in his
roles he has no compeers here; he u always at
ease upon the stage, with an expressive face and
fine figure to develop the requirements Of bis part.
Mclchesidcc, as Nerers, with that rich baritone,
which have before so well commended, had not
much opportunity, but he is always good and per-
feet in everything he undertakes.
Petit. as Losse, made the most Of his part his
agreeable voice is always satisfactory.
Vanlair, second basso, as 81. Bris, proved him
self the possessor of % much better voice than /
had credited lin with.
Carriere, as Boiaose was too bosterous in the
celebrated " Ratapan'' chorus and not altogether
in good time. He is good artist but be must not
| get too excited.
| The chorusses were very effective, and great
credit is due to the admiral precision Of the or
chestra and its talented leader, Provost.
| The new scenery, as well as the appointments
and properties, Of the very best, and the mise
en- scene,' in the second act, perfect picture,
with its huge trees and large flight of steps and
baustrade, assuring the looker-on it was no such
affair as the humorous Sol Smith describes as hav
ing happened to Romeo and Juliet balcony. which
caused sweet Juliet to utter her text in this wise
Oh! Romeo! Romeo the balcony is falling. hole
it up: this was addressed to the scene shifter,
| wherefore art thou Romeo!
The promises made by the gentlemanly ant
liberal manager have been fully carried out in re
gard to this theater; there is one thing would
however, call his attention to- in the deviation from
the good old habit of punctuality in commencing
the opera at the time appointed, and if our j" fash
ionables will not appear until three quarters of a
hour after the time, not to detain those who ar
y punctual, and keep them until the wee hours t
hear the end of the performance; shorter tin,
might also be allowed between the acts in Ion
, five act opera.
) Summing up the evidence, have good authorit
for saying this difficult opera was never 10 we
