ENGLIsA OPERL-AARITAHA - Ne ware
ashamed to see so small an audience pres-
ent At the second rendition Of Mariana. At
the Academy of Music, BY the English op-.
era Company, last evening--ashsmed of tba
musical ability and taste Of the people Of
Cleveland. True. there were last evening
many and diverse attractions turning at
tention from the Opera: and vet Z eity
like Cleveland ought to welcome such 9srns
Of musical art as have been nightly pro-
dueed before rs with crowded houses. m
matter what the rival attractions. The
English Opera Company remain with uS but
two more evenings, as they open in Detroit
on Monday night next. In justice to than
TO the musical cultivation and sbility
which they have been Offering. at personal
and peeuniary loss, throughout their whole
season-let them have crowded houses dur
ing the remainder of their Stey.
Mariana was produced last evening FIR
the second time, and, nosEithstsndine the E
diseOuragingly small audience, the sinraT,
acquitted themselves even more brilliantly
than on Wednesday night. Mr., Csstis
gave Us the gay and gallant, the reckless
and rollicking Don Cesar de Bazan =.
aecurately as before, and sang the mateh-
less music Ofhis role with great success.
Mr.. Csmpbell, as Don Jose de ssutsysm
succeeded most admirably. His acting 4
always good, and his magui hcent baritone
unequaled. Mr.. seguin, IS Charles see-
cOnd, renewed the favorable impression
which his PrsyiOusappearanees have made.
HIS duet with Mr.. Castle "surely a. thsu
art Don Casar," was nna of tha zrsatsst
successes of the evening,
Miss Stockton was in much better voice
than on the previous evening, and her ex-
quiSite grace and beauty, and the charm of
her acting, secured most favorable Judy
msnt from the audience. We trust that va
may yet have an opportunity OF hearing
this fascinating young singer under more
favorable circumstances than the present.
Mr.. White, who is, BY the way, one of the
very best "old men !" we have seen for
years, won great snccsss as the Marquis
de Montefore. The chorus was unusually
goOd-the orchestra weak.
Tonight era DisvOlo" win be-
again produced, on occasion of the benefit
OF Miss Fannie Riddell, who won 50 dsci-
ded success in the opera last week. Misa
Riddle appears as zerlina, Mr.. Castle "a

Governor Magrafh and the ChfvaRrv.
The intrepid, balligerent, frs-breathing
Governor of the blood and thunder little
State of South Carolina, thus addressed the
ehivalry when it became evident that
Sherman was TO invade her sacred soil:
Let him read everywhere and in every.
thing that in this State, from one portion
of it to the other, there is but one purpose
and fixed resolve. That purpose il TO meet
him at every point; fight him at every
road; that resolve is to undergo all suffer-
ings, submit to every sacrifice, welcome
any fate, sooner than subsection to hig
army, or submission to his terms.
One would have supposed in reading thiS
illumination that the breasts Of the chivalrv
were boiling with courage; that men, wo.
men and children would have lined every.
road and infested every swamp to pick of
the merciless Yankees. But instead Of
welcoming any fate, as the Gubsrnssorial
Msgrath suggests, the hre-sating chi7alry
prefer 70 indulge in an amusement which
leaves their cOat-tails trailing horizontally
in the rear. They have no notion of dying
notwithstanding all their vehement pro-
testatiOns in the beginning Of the war.
They prefer the " vital air. of North Caro-
lima and the sweet privacy of their own
delightful sWamPs, to cleaying blus-eoats
in twain. Indeed, despite the touching
sppsal Of Skedsddling AAgrsth, aLittle
Carrie" seems disposed to conduct hsrIslf
meekly. She will soon be ever the suIks.

RICHMOND Examiner UPON THE srFUA-
u 9 TIoE.
The Richmond Examiner of the 21st has
an article upon the situation, from which
the following is extracted;
There is not at this moment so much to
alarm US in reality IS there was last May
It is true we have not so many troops, but
neither has our enemy by great deal,
on that occasion, too, when Butler could
and did land his forces at City Point with
out any opposition or loss; but this year
Sherman has to fight his way through
many swsmps and lakes, or turn many
batteries and leave many bluecosts' corpses
behind him ere he can hope to see Vir-
ginisn railroad.
It is hoped the President will not re-
Gevs Beauregard at the very crisis of his
campaign, and appoint General Pember-
ton in his place, with orders to the latter
to slip around to Sherman's rear and march
away to Mobile, but, barring this, or some
other equally erroneous blunder or crime,
it seems evident that Sherman has before
him a much more difficult and perilous
part than Butler had last year, and in the
meantime his devastating march through
South Carolina is no more conquering that
State than his great raid through Georgia
converted that State to Unionism.
Richmond is safe if all parties do their
duty.
GEN. sUHoFHLD's REPORT.
Gen. SchoAeld makes the following
report;
Fr. ANDERSON, Feb. 10.
Lieut.. Gen. Granti
GENERAL: Il have the honor to report
the success of our operations against Fort
Anderson and the adjacent works on both
sides of Cape Fear River.
Yesterday, while the guns maintained
heavy fire upon Fort Anderson, I passed
the enemy on both sides of the river and
sent Gen. Cox about sixteen miles around
q swamp to turn the enemy's right.
This force made its way along a narrow
defle between two swsmps, completely
turning the enemy's position. As soon as
the movement became known to the enc
my he abandoned his works and retreated
toward Wilmington. We captured ten
guns, uninjured, and a considerable
amount of ammunition. We have about
five hundred prisoners. Loss in killed and
wounded small on either side.
The troops are pursuing the enemy and
the gunbOats moving up the river.
Fort Anderson and its collateral works
are very strong, and rendered almost mac
cessible by swamps. A small force could
have held them till the supplies were ex-
hAusted.
Ny impression is that the rebels have
lines of defense behind Tom Greek, where
they propose to make a stand. If 50, it can
probably only be short one.

THOMAS PROGRAMME.
The Richmond Examiner, of the goth
says We have distinct confirmation of the
report of the movement on the part Of
Thomas. His force consists almost entirely
of mounted infantry and cavalry. His
workfs to open the Alabama River from
mou1 to source, involving the capture Of
Mobile, Selma and Montgomery, the cap
ture Of Columbus, Georgia, for the aestruc-
tion of the machine shops there, and the
destruction of the railroad through central
Alabama and the Mobile & Ohio Railroad
from Oorinth southward.
ARHIEG NEGROES.
The W6ig, of the goth, in an editorial on
"Arming Niggers," says "the proposition
has gained favor rapidly of late, and prom
ises to be adopted. So far from exciting
repugnance in the army, as at first appre-
hended, it has been called for by many reg
iments, and by nearly all the principal
oficers,D 10.
A prominent officer of the rebel army
writes to the Whig, "The enemy has taught
Us an important lesson; he has caused the
negro to fight as well if not better than
white troops. Our prisoners declare they
are the best soldiers and the most thorough
ly drilled of the Union troops. myself

white men could not be kept.

Demise of n Famous L.iOn.Tamer-..
Death OF Van Ambureh.

. ,
Isaac A. Van iAmburgh, the famous
"lon-lIing,p died Thursday morning
in Philadelphia. His decease was
quite sudden and unexpected, as it is
but few days since he was ap-
parently in the enjoyment of good
health. -,
Van Amburg was born in Ffshkill,
in this State, and, early in life became
connected with travelling menagerie,
where he had an opportunity of becom-
ing practically acquainted with the
habits and. dispositions of the brute
creation. Finding that the fiercest
species in time became familiar with
their keepers, and that they were sus-
eeptible to the influence of training, it
occurred to him that a striking peffOr-
nance might be produced by entering
den of lions, tigers, DC, properly sub
dued, and forming them In a series of
groups or tableaux. Ambitious, fear
less and energetic, he soon had a cOllec-
ton OF performing. animals ready for
the proposed exhibition, which was
most successfully given, BE made his
nrst appearance in Yew York at the
Richmond Hill TheAter in the Fall of
1893, and his performances being then
entirely novel in character, created a
great excitement. Later, during the
same season, he apparel at the Bowery
Iheater, under the management of I.
8. aambhny in, u melodrama written
for him by Miss Medina, entitled t'The
Lion Lord; or, The Forest Monarch, /"
IN which he introduced n royal Bengal
tiger, apparently loose, upon the stage.
From 1884 Until 1893 Van Ambureh
performed every Winter at the old
geological Institute in the Bowery,
where there was an extensive menagerie
In the summer of 1888 he visited Europe
forthe first time, making his debut in
England at Astley's..1 Shortly after
ward he was engaged by Buan for
Drury Lane, where his success was OF
an unprecedented character. Buno, in
his History, of the English Stlge, .
says' at is impossible to conceive a
greater degree of excitement and inter-
est than that which attended Mr.. Van
Amburgh's exhibition upto the close OF
the year 1898, unless it be that which
followed it through the early part OF
| 1888 while he remained with me."-
AfterWard, in partnership with a COM
pany of Americans, Van Amuburgh
travelled through England, Ireland Scot
land and Wales with inenagerie. re.
turning to the United States in 1886
where he has since remained, excepi
during several temporary visits tC

and several years since he surrendered

his partners. FaF1 g
