The JaJsIese, with suayity begged to be excused.
The Con miriee inristed. The japanese firmly de-

Madame Cortesi who is sumptuous woman, made |
a diiect appeal to their hearts. they thongnt, |

paeans who put Der TO death.
In addition to the Opera, we bad March composed |
in honor Of the occasion by Sgror Muzio, said to be
on japanese arr. IL go the airs not genuine
they are too clean and artsticay of European cut.
