ACADEMY or MUSIC.

Last night witnessed it ought TO- full house to
see and hear new opera-new in composition well
as performance here. II was about time that the pub
lie should give over secession from the Academy in
Irving place, unless they wish TO &c. up fresh musical
conlederacy in the ndopendency Of Brooklyn. Not
only is the opera ncw but the is laid in America
But the Other day Garbadi and Ssyi were making
candles and shooting woodcock Staten leland, and
now the senior partner of the finn is Lighting up I'LL
Italy with the flame Of liberty and shooting It's foes.
II is perhaps owing 10 this heroic rePccussion ai

America and still more in the Daby.umper Of
liberty, Boston.
The most difficult thing regarding foreign countries
s TO learn who's who, and what what. The com.

task, and when done should be handsomely recognized

Brignoli particularly distinguished themselves IN II.
The audience were waiting fer salient melody, ana
found some at this juncture. OF Miss Hinklcy we
have only to say she looked very fresh and pretty ard
her colo being good for nothing as composition no
effect could be produced. She has voice with the
charm Of youth, and must advance in her career win
increased stage experiences.
a first hearing of an opera is more or less unsatl-
factory. Until the themes become familiar the al-
dience is not too well pleased. The best parts OF IN
Ba2o will grow with additional hearings.
The splendid audience last night preGagcd well. Un-
de- the skillnl direction Of NJ Mnzio the present sea-
son, with its new opera, ought to succeed.

am unable to see any reason, and
know Of no facts, opposed to the war
camp as proper place for intelligent wo-
men. Order is essential to the service and
must be had-just such order as woman
desires to see and is hest able to establish.
Women are better qualified than men 10
introduce order into some departments Of

There are sweaters aud ynlgar-behaying

OF the usefulness Of women in the army,
their presence is Just as essential as at our
homes; their kind of work, and most Of
all their almost boundIess influence, are
Just as fitfuI, we think more so. The
rough, almost tameless man, while in the
presence of women, becomes watchful over
every word passing his lips; he minds his
walk, would not appear filthy, desires more
intelligence and has more pride when
women are about than if all are men; and
the came is true Of an army Of men.
Such thoughts offering to my mind,
while writing, would have Gov. Rainfall
dismiss his useless, meddlesome army
agents and select women to fill their places
At least five women ought to accompany
each Regiment, But these hobby army
agents are humbugs-the only one we eyel

well to place under guardianship; and We
