ISTERSAL REvEyUE.-We understand that
the amount of internal revenue assessed in
the First District embracing Richmond and
several counties) for February was fifty five
thousand dollars: of which amount, Rich

burned down, and broken-up city like Rlch-
mond. These tangible evidences of loyalty
should, and doubtless will, have their due
weight at washington.

FAIR AT THE LEtGH-sTREET BAPTIST CHURCH
The ladies of the Leight-street Baptist
Church opened their fair on Monday evening,
and will continue it during the week As al
ready stated, the proceeds of the fair Will be
devoted to repairing the church and defraylng
the cost Of extending the gas pipes from the
corporation limits into the church. 1t Is dlffi-
cult to say anything new on the subject OF
fairs, but that 10 which we now allude, al
though last in point of time, will be among
the first TO tempt the minds of the charitable
by the tasteful character of its arrangements
and the diversified objects of interest which 1t
contains. The ladies who preside at the diff
ferent tables are as attractive and charming
rs few but Southern girls can be, and man
must be finty hearted indeed to resist their
pleadings in favor of a cause of both religious
and general Importance. The ladies deserve
success in all they undertake, and 1t is sim
cerely 10 be hoped that in this instance their
labors will be fully and handsomely rewarded.

THE OPERA To-SIGHr. To night, Max Stra-
kosch, with his fine Opera Troupe, will inau-
gurate a season ut the New Theatre with
Eerdis beautiful opera "a III Trovatore.'
1.-The Opera" has been the talk of the fashion
able circles of our city ever since the announce
ment of its coming, and we expect to see to-
night brilliant assemblage of the beauty and
fashion of Richmond. The opera OF Iroya-
tore is one of the most brilliant and popular
of the age. Eerdi's music Is alike remarkable
for it's briliancy and its originality. he
stands amongst the musical authors as one Of
the most highly gifted. His Troyatore con-
tains some of the richest gems in all the con-
ceptious of modern music. The story is quite
tragic, and forms play Of very great drama
tic effect Two Counts are in love with the
heroine, Leonora, a Court lady. They have a
duel, and one of them, rebel, Manrico falls
into the power of the other rs the fate OF war,
and is condemned 10 the stake. Leonora
offers her hand to DeLuni, the victor, II he
will spare Manrico, whom she really loves, 10
which he agrees. She conveys the news 10
Manrico, but he refuses liberty on such terms
Leonora takes poison, Manrico is burnt at the
stake and rs the flames curl around him, De
Luni is informed that ManriCo is his brother
gipsyanna explains this mystery. her
mother had been burnt at the stake on suspl-
cion of having poisoned Count DeLunls Dro-
ther: she to ayenge the mother deatn, seiZed
the Counts brother, and, awaiting an oppor-
tunity threw him, as she supposed, In the
fire which consumed her mother; but INTO Inc
confusion Of her haste not TO be observed, she
threw her own child into the flames! She tnen
adopted Manrico, the Counts brother, ana ne
grew to manhood. The incidents OF gypsy
camp and life heighten the effect OF the play
A full house will very much helghten tne
spirit of its representation, and we nope TINS
will not be wanting.
