WARRINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP.

b The REVOLUTION IN EURoPK-The news re-
ceived Yesterday in New York, from Europe,
settles the question Of general war on the Cont.
nent, apparently. Victor Emanuel ard Garibaidi
are believed to be by this time in full narch upon
Rome, from different directions; while Russia,
Prussia, and Austria, well as France have
probably by this time drawn the sword against
the revolutonists, who are secretly aided by Eng
land that does not dare avow any such purpose as
being her governmental policy. Without active
English countenance, the revolutionists could not
raise tenth Of the money necessary to carry them
to the present point of their war In these
times being little more than the measurement of
the depth Of national or party purses Victor
Emanuel means well, and SO does Garibaldi,
doubtless. The frat desires to secure needed re-
forms for the people Of Italy; while the second
aims but to aid him to the same end But, alas,
they both bid fair soon TO find themselves in the
tolls Of red republic anism--the element Of politi-
cal and social evil OF modern times, infinitely
worse in its effect upon society than the direst
existing continental despotism as bad as that may
be. Everywhere throughout Europe there are at
this moment secret political clubs actively at
work In all their attributes they are similar to
the clubs that worked the destruction Of the pros-
pect Of civil liberty in France at the beginning of
this century, while originally aiming to secure 1t
for the people at large. 1t Is utterly impossible
that their interference In public affairs can fail to
operate as dsastrously for any good cause as in
France in times past. From this time for some
months to come we may almost daily look for
news from Europe of intense interest.
The OPKRA.-Last evening, "Lucrezia Borgia"
was given to the best house Of the season 30 fa-
and We doubt very much il more select and
no hon ,,Qic
Of "Lucreza,' like all Of Donizettis, requires
master mind to phrase it, but Miss Milner sur
mounted the difficulties, and repeatedly received
the hearty cheering Of the audience Nothing
could be better sung than her cavatina, " Come
bello quale incanto, nor anything more exquisite
than her dying scene, "a M odi, all M'odi :" Mr.
Bowler as Genarro sustained her, and divided
the applause. His beautiful aria, {. Di pescatore
ignobile," was admirably rendered Mr. Cook
as Duke Alfonso was very good. In the first act
lie sang an aria In fine style, and received hearty
call before the curtain. Mr.. Boudinot al Gabetta
was most happy. Miss Kemp as Orsini dis PLAYED
commendable talent as vocalist In her opening
aria, " Nella fatal di Rimini," she was warmly
applauded throughout. The execution Of the
pretty brindsi " II segreto per esser feice," was
very fine. I...r
