The LudicrOus-Supernatura on the Stage.
The Diabler1e of "Der Freischutzo Cap
italy Comic. .. .--
The musical critic of the New York Tri-
bune, in a notice of Der Freischutz as per-
formed at the Academy of Music, has the
following:
The incantation-scene was as ludicrous a.
usual. The German sense of the sublime, if
we may judge from the form of its express
sion, is neither refined nor subtle. The fear
producing power of simple mystery the Ger
mans do not recognize, at least in their the
atrieal representations. Every element of
an awful scene must be palpably dramatized:
The goblin introduced must be substantial
goblin, and he must well earn his money.
The lazy ghost who should undertake TO
curdle The popular blood by standing in
dreadful silence, grimly pointing over his
shoulder, would be discharged from the
company at once. If he wishes salary and
applause, he must go jerking about the stage,
as neither men nor devils ever ought to
walk; he must clatter his jaws, grin like an
'unhandsOme corse," wag his head; if he can
spit blue fire and sparks his pay will be
doubled, and he shall have the satisfaction of
frightening many women into fits, besides
being printed in large letters as the princi-
pal devil of the theater. r.
The diablerie of Der FTeiSchutz furnishes
one of the most comic scenes upon our stage.
The benighted traveller who should stray
into glen haunted by such a select party as
last evening occupied the Academy boards,
| would wake the echoes with laughter; as for
awe under such circumstances, he would
clap the first loW-cOmedy specter on the
shoulder, saluting him with boisterous in
quiries after his health. However, if all
this stuff makes the German heart quake
we need not complain of it; that nationality
is in the majority just now at the opera.

The INDIAN FIGHT AT PYRAMID LAKE.-A
correspondent of the San Francisco Herald,
writing from Genoa, May sth, says:
The man who most distinguished himself
in this battle, was unfortunately not of our
race Minnemocker with his little band OF
six hundred Pah Utes, decoyed his enemies
nearly hundred miles into his own terri
tories To his own position and a better was
never chosen, he drew up half his men in ad
miraOle form, resorving the other half to re
leve the first in the fight and during the
whole engagement he gave his orders as
coolly as he would eat his breakfast, and all
his commands were instantly obeyed. He
did not enter the battle himself but stood
upon an emnencea a little way off. His com
mands were given by elevating, depressing
and waving what some say was battle ak,
some say spear His aids were watching
for those signals and in words communicated
the orders to the warriors. AS is usual with
savages, they came to battle with yell.
Observe the consummate generalship of
this old Chief; he displays hundred horse
men In the center, who provoke a charge and
retreat only to expose his enemies to the
deadly cross-hre of his hidden infantry
Notice his reserve, with weapons in hand,
ready to sustain any weak point. They say
