The opening performance of the opera company
at Holiday Street last evening, in NnriRr, was, in
every respect, a complete success. The house was
filled in every part with the beauty and fashion o
the city, and the Guard, in their sh0wv UNIFORM
scattered through the boxes and parquete afforded
gay and and picturesque effect. The opera wat
presented in capital style, and we heard nothing
but entire satisfaction expressed. Madame Cogor
was admirable as Lody Henyicto, aud gave the part
with charming piqUancy. She received warm
greeting. Miss Phillips is a very fair contralto
and Susini was quite up to the roIc Of Pl,nkcff-
Brignoh was in magnificent voice. and sang in a
way to make the ladies vehemently clap their kids
In the aria in the Sd act, and in the finale of the
same, he well deserved the applause so abundautly
showered upon him. The chorus was about as
usual, and the orchestra the best we have ever
heard in opera in this city, being complete in every
department and Thoroughly drilled.
Tonight the regular season will open with the
Stcttian Vespers an opera in which Verdi has de
veloped style different from that EMPLOYED in anv
of his other works. In its general handling the
elaboration of its orchestraton and the massiveness
Of its construction, it resembles the best produc-
tions of Meyerbeer. The subject is heroic, and the
music is appropriately grand. The scene is laid in
'J' "''AtiS '4S iSlSh uoihiHatIoil, anu tle plOt
turns upon the oppression of the intruders and the
massacre which ended in their expulsion. Madame
Colson will tonight sustain the rolc of the Duchess
Elena, Brignoi that Of Arrigo, Susni that of John
Of Procido, and Ferri that of Nonyort, the French
Viceroy. This is an admirable cast, in every re
spect; and it viii be long time, we apprehend, be
fore our public will have the opportunity of hear
ing this great opera brought out in such perfec-
tion. The role entrusted to Madame Colsen is one
Of her best, and in it the fayorite prima donna
will achieve another of her brilliant triumphs.

possess neither State sovereignty nor indepand-

then it is absurdity to say that they can change
