received the most complete ovation OF the evening she
sang an aria Angels ever Bright and Fair duet WIN
signor Ferran and song one Year Ago for the first
time IN Ncw-York." The song was by Mr. A. H. Wood,
and II the music "a Parepa rendered II was excellent inc

LYRIC HALL.
The delightful cOnccrt-hall which Mr.. Theo-
dore Thomas has opened Sixthaye. near Forty
ST. was well ned last night, ana VIC arc gIaou W P
ceve that his enterprise meeting with substantial re-
wards His orchestra rarely gives us poor music. The
programme last night embraced the Overtures 10 Wog-
ner's Rienz and Rossinis william Tell fantasia ON Don
Gi0rann selections from TOrdt0re, the aegretto rom
BcehOyens 9TH FymphOnya movement OF very solemn
beauty, played with exceeding dellcacy-and several
dances by Strauss, and other minor pieces As
no concert seems complete now without uouhon'
we had an er acic from his Philemon Bd'tcs strlk
ing composition Of marked dylic character Mr. Ihonl-
ass violin oblgaO was heard TO advantage In SELECTION
by Launer and his neat sympathetic touch added grca
deal also TO the Don GiOrdnni overture ana lhtmo
and Variations by Mozart. His UHdm icy was SUI
perbly performed aud an encore was resOutely de-
handled but was not unreasonaby, declined. These or
chesra concerts are really valuable additions to our t
of pubc entertainments and II speaks well FOR the musl
cal taste OF NowYork that they are SO keeny appre'
ciatod.
ITALIAN OPERA.
The opera season will be resumed tonight
when Romeo and Juliet will be heard for the second time
We presume there will be an Overlooking house the
weeks interruption in the performances having
whetted public curiosity. while IL has enabled
tho manager 10 add very important strength TO
the cast In tho person OF Signor BellinL Goun0ds
opera, as we have before remarked, needs TO
peated hearings before 10 can be fairly Judged Tho yer
diet Of hOss who heard 1t on the rst night was divided
and that we NAV reckon verdict IN s favor In Lon
don aud Paris ii has gained steadily IN popularity and,
we doubt not Il will do the same mere.
