Musical entertainment becomes more abundant "a
the season advances. Mr.. Anschutzs German Opera
company commences series Of performances this

tha" is announced for representation this evening,
with Meslames Rotter and Zimmerman and Messrs.
Lott, Weinlich and Graf in the principal parts.
Mr.. Theodore Thomas's concert takes place on
Thursday evening at Irving Hall. Mr.. Nixon opens
the Academy Of Music next week, and Mr.. Gotta
chalk gives bis first Fall concert on the ID Of Octo
Der at Irving Hall.
The tbeaters are competing vigorously for public
favor. The strongest attraction of Miss Bateman's
engagement at the Winter Garden-her appearance
a. Lady Macbsth-hss been reserved for this week.
She this evening undertakes the character for the
FIRST time upon any stage. Mr.. j. w. Wallsck, jr
personatss Macbeth aud Mr. Edwin Adams Macduf
The "Summer season' at Niblos Garden having
closed last Saturday evening with the benefit of
Gabriel Ravel, on which occasion the house was 70
crowded that the sofas in the obbies had to be
pressed into the service of visitors who though
tsrdy in attendance yet "would not be denied"
The regular Fall and Winter business will COM
mence this evening with the engagement Of Mr..
Forrest, who appears in Hamlet" On Tuesday
evening Mr.. Haekett willplay Fals'sfin King Henry
w., Mr. Wheatley appearing, for the first time since
bis assumption of the management, ss Prince Hal.
We learn that during Mr.. Hacketts presen. engage
ment he will play Shyock, in "Tbe Merchant Of
Venice" Theatrical amateurs wAl find great inter-
est in tins announcement. Mr.. Hssketts name has
been mainly associated with the higher order of
comedy, but the certainty that artist OF his rank
would venture 10 experiment that could hazard his
reputation, justifes high expectations Of his per-
fsrmance in this opposite style. The Merchant OF
Venice" will probably be presented about three
weeks hence. In reference to Mr.. Forests engage
msnt, we should say that its continuance beyond the
period at present announced depends upon the
advent Of Madame Ristori. Should her arrival be
deferred, or should her appearance be postponed 10
another season, Mr. Forrest VIII remain for perhaps
two months.
Mr.. Wallack's Thester viii reopen on Thursday
night. In the absence Of official announcements, We
will state that the first representation will be OF
"The Love Chase" which has probably been Sc
leced from tho fact that it introduces larger num-
Der Of the company than almost any other piece
could do. This will be followed by 4" London As
surance." Among the new engagements cautiously
referred to in Mr.. Wallsek's advertisement, 1t is
understood that The most important ia that OF Mr.
John Gilbert, who is to share the business OF "oid
mel" with Mr.. Mark Smith.
Tie fret benefit Of label Cubas occurs this even
ing at Nixons Cremorne Garden. She will appear
in the "French Spy" for the representation Of
which dramatic company has been engaged. The
operatie artists Of Mr., Nixon's troupe have volun'
teered their assistance, and will sing, for tho only
time this week.
The success Of "ClRude Marcel" ut Barnun'.

of ito repetition until further notice. IL will be
performed as hitherto every afternoon and evening
The dramatic entertainment, be it understood, Ii
only an incident Of the numerous attractions o. sn
establishment. From the fsh below stairs 10 she
flesh above-from the aquaria TO the Happy Famil,
each floor is crowded with objects Of singular
interest. The attendance of visitors during lac
week was No large that it formed special euriosii,
Of itself.
