MUSICAL.
ITALIAN opERA-AcADgMY oP MUSIC.


The production of Meyerbeer's Huguenots
attracted brilliant audience last evening. We re-
member all sorts OF casts to this opera we remember
its first production at the Park Theater, Aug 8. l5i5
by the French Opera Company from New.Oreans Tho
cast was strong in general excellence but the stars
were the Raou. Nine. Arnoud, and the Marcel. Mme
Douvry, both grand dramatic singers. Mile. Cave
the vaentn was artist in method, manner and CO.'S
tune. singing and acting with spirit and passion but
lacking in the heroic sentiment Bat she was charm
ing and 80 were Casni aud Richer, the Marguerite
and Urban. The present cast has stronger points In
Zucchi Phillips Mazzolen and Bellni. Antonucci Is
also excellent, but lacks sorority In the lower tones
The whole voice indeed for such part, needs pro-
fundy and gravity to give due weight to the music
and render the character sufficiently impressive.
Zuech and Mazzoeni were tho great successes Of the
evening. They had studied their roles earnestly and
intelgently and sang them with marked force and
effect Mazzoeni sang his aria in the first act with
much dramatic expression and he was especially admi'
rable in the whole OF the second act His duo In the
fourth act with valentn, was marked by intense
tenderness and earnest pathos and force OF express
sion which was viv''y real Zucchi created Juror
in her duo Will Mlrr .a third act. She conceived
IT, and sang # gar 1' 81 received the weldeserved
honor Of an encore Wheh these two artists feel more
at home in these to them new roles shall rank them
among the very best of their efforts.
Miss Adelaide Phillips was the realization OF dash.
ing and shapcy Page. and sang her beautiu! arias
with exquisite taste and grace.
Antonucci sang the music OF Marcel excellsnty well.
with due appreciation and dramatic emphasis but as
we have said his voice lacks depth and gravity OF
quality Beln and Ardavani were careful and accept.
able In their roles and did all they had to do well.
Malle. Caroi is quite unequal 70 the role OF Mar
guerite. The other characters were ably filed The
choruses were all well sung, some Of them with much
effect The Hugucnst chorus in the third act was given
with so much spirit and accuracy that 1t gained all the
honors OF an encore. The orchestra performed with
more spirit and effect than accuracy or delicacy. The
time devoted to the production OF the opera was too
shor, TO achieve anything like perfection. What has
been accomplished is really wonderful, and would
hardly have been achieved in any other country. The
whole work had an a r OF ncomple,eness and In many
places the roughness was very apparent.

President johnson has issued Proclamation
declaring the Rebellion at an end and Peace
fully restored TO the country through the COM
plete submission Of those lately in revolt to the
Constitution and laws. He has fortified this
brief declaration with an exceedingly long pre-
amble whereas" the fact above set forth
assuming it to be a facts all the justification
required. If the Rebellion is completely sup
pressed and renounced, proclamation of Peace
is a matter Of sourse.
The President is silent with regard to the
prisoners Jefferson Davis and Clement c. Clay,
who are still held in custody by his order. If
the War is ended, and the late Rebels all re-
turned to loyalty they ought either to be tried on
whatever charge may be preferred against them
or set at liberty. We shall, doubtless, soon hear
something definite on this point.

Mr.. WILSON, yesterday, in the Senate re.
ported back from the Military Committee the
bill for the Equalization Of Bounties, in a new
draft. We do not perceive that the fundamen-
tai objections to the measure arc in any way
obviated. The principle remains; some Of the
details are altered. No allowance is yet made
for bounties paid by State or local authorities,
and until that is done it is absurd to call this O
measure for the equalization" of bounties,
b may have had no bounty from the United
States, but $500 from other sources. Under this
bill he will get as much more from the Govern.
ment as A, who never had dollar from any
body. What sort Of "equalizing" is that 7
The changes in the bill affect mainly the ma
