MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC ART.

formancea Of Lortslng's opera OF The Csar aud zm-
norman to very fair audiences. The different oherac-
tors were with ono or two exceptions, In the hands
OF amateursi but In the rendering Of the OPERA the
chorus excelled-a department in which almost all
companies are sadly deficient Frau Kenkel, who
sustained the character Of MARY" lisa capital act
ress, pretty and gracefui WOMAN and her manner
far more than her singing, won the hearts Of her
audience Tho orchestra under the direction Of
Professor Darus, was admirably drilled, and the
orchestral portion Of the music was performed in
excellent style. Altogether the production Of the
opera may be considered a success and we expect TO
see some others brought out by this company Of
amateurs. - "a. ....-...
This evening, Hooley & oOmpboll's Minstrels, 20
popular upon their recent visit to tho CITY, will COM
mence "a series Of entertainments, which we doubt
not will draw largely. They are fine troupe Of
singers, and in their delineatons Of negro life and
character are natural and complete that all lovers
Of Ethiopian minstrelsy will find in them all the
qualities which have tended 10 render this class Of
entertainments popular, cultivated to high degree
WooD's TuEATER.-Mr. and Miss Richings are still
at this cosy and popular place Of amusement, and
during the week past have been playing The Enchant
ress to fair audiences both in quantity and quality
We have already spoken at some length in regard to
these and the play and have little to add to
what has already been said The fair Carrie is quite
not deserve one-half the encomums that have been
avished upon her, and she is doubtless aware Of it
She pretendsto be an driste; have spoken Of her
entirely from m art standpoint and unlike some Of
our cotempornries, afford TO tell the truth Her
style If she has any is chaste and clever, but will
not bear analysis It may please the senses but can
not satisfy the intellect. This evening The Enchant-
ress will be repeated, and tomorrow Mr. Ellser the
manager Of the establishment, will have a benefit
NATIONAL TnEATER.-The Ravels have been emin-
emily successful during their present engagement at
the National, and have drawn throughout large and
brilliant audiences. Their pantommes are full of
life and incident their ballet good and the feats of
Mile Chiarini and Young America on the tight rope
wonderful. They will remain but one week longer,
after which there will be a short dramatic season at
the National, with James Z. Murdoch as the chief
attraction.
ANTONIO AND BRoruERs's GREAT WORLD CIRcus-
This excellent company of equestrians and aerobats
will perform on the City Lot, corner of Ninth and
Plum, next Thursday Friday and Saturday Tho
troupe in all that appertains to tho cirque have an
envlable reputation, while that of the Antonio
Brothers, in the way of gymnasts is unsurpassed.
Their reputation is well established and they will
undoubtedly, be largely patronized.

be, to some extent, exaggerated in our mind but If

Miss Pennoyer, who is quite an agreeable danseuse
will leave the city sometime during the coming week
for the East, having we believe, an engagement in
Philadelphia, during the summer season. She il
graceful modest and clever, and for these qualities
will be doubtless admired among the Quaker City
lovers of the ballet.
