ADJUSTMENTS.

PERRLLI's OPERA.-Lucrezid Borgid was given
ast evening with degree Of excellence and perfec.
ton that deserves the very highest eulogum. In-
deed, the fact of the company being amateurs was
quite forgotten from the admirable manner in which
the ensemble was given and each individual part
performed.
Mrs. Davis, already fine musician, the sister of
our fine pianist Mr.. Charles Jarvis has most mag
niicent voice. 1t Is high mezzo-soprano, OF most
sympathetic quality, 1ul OF power, and highly dra-
matte she has also admirable style, soul, fire, and
expression, and IN. L1crezia Borgid last evening,
made so un quIvOcal success not rs an amateur,
but as an artist, that, should such be her desire she
can, whenever she chooses, assume her place
amongst the prime donRe of the real opera. or
course, she wants experience of stage busnesswalk
action, GO, Tut the feeling and intention arc
there, and very little practice Will bring the rest.
Mr.. Taylor made q grand and imposing "Ouke,"
though this is the first tune we havo heard him in
opera. He can scarcely be ooked on as an amate lr,
being accustomed TO iace the pub in conc rts. tie
sung the "DuNo" with great effect. HIS cavatina
was gwen with much poT er and spirit. We have few
such bassos ON the stage. Mr. Waterman has I'm.
proved wonderfully from last year. He sang the
music of '6ennaro" WI h correctness and dramatic
effect. HIS pronunciation Italian was the best OF
the whole company, and his recative was well
given. Miss Depegle has also improved; she has
her voice, aud has acquired an excellent
style; she scarcely, however, yet sustains her
voice sufficiently, but as who o, her performance
of 'FOrsn" was satisfactory. The chorus fine
possible; in fact excepting little stiffness in the
acting, the performance might have taken rank, and
hiP rank as regular artistic opera. The trio was
encOred, and gwen with immense power aud effect.
The ensemble was perfect, showing careful rehear-
sails.
SiPnor Perelli is forming school of art which will
make Phiade pha. III time, the musical city OF the
Union. HIS 1ndomtable perseverance, his know
ledge, his taste, his enthusiasm, all fit him for che
leader OF q new idea. AS teacher no has O mag
netism about him that takes the pupil unconsciousY
from mere student INTO art regions His operas
this year show tbs IN their progress from last year.
LacTezid was q grand success, intensely enjoyable
and was highly appreciated by o large and iashlon'
able audience.

DESTRUCTION BY FIRES.

The present year has been remarkable in
many respects. but in nothing more than
the number and magnitude Of It's fires. Al
though the year has not yet expired. and
even c0n6nlng our observations to the area
formerly comprised in the old Union and
its territories. We hnd that up TO this time
the loss by fire nearly doubles the exhibi,
rendered for the whole OF last year. The
total number ofgreat fires for the wear 1865
was one hundred and fifty one, and the loss.
es resulting from these fires we're estimated
at si7 ,52s.0OO Up 10 the fret day Of July
Of the current year, the number OF fires IS
given al two hundred and eigh,y-nine, and
the aggregate OF the property DESTROYED is
valued at sS2.916,000. When IL is con.
sidered that this estimate embraces only
half Of the present, it will be seen how vastly
this year will excel all others in these ter
rible statistics Of fiery desolation.
There can be no doubt that the universal
advance Of this most destructive and at the
same time most useful element OF nature, is
due to that reckless spirit engendered by
the war which riots in violence and reioicss
in crime. Ii is true that the most console.
rable fire Of recen, date is that Of Portland,
which was caused by pop cracker xplod-
ed BY careless boy. But il j. no les true
that the great majority d our CONGREGATIONS
are TO be traced TO bad men who thus re.
venge themselves for fancied wrongs. or
apply the torch in order that they may rob
and pillage with more security during the
confusion OF general panic.
As long as the peace and morals Of a peo-
pie are unhinged by war and fierce political
excitements, Of the character existing ia
this country, il may be expected that wick.
"a men will invoke the destructive agencies
Oi nature in the furtherance Of their fell
designs. Until our people cease 10 war
upon one aLother they will be plagued BY
6res and epidemios and social aud political
diseases worse than either.
