WALLS OPERA HousE.-This btiou Of a theatre
was crowded last night with the beauty and
fashion Of our city TO listen TO the initial per-
formapee Of Sfrakosh's Italian Opera Troupe in
vetdps favorite opera Of IN Trovatore." To
simply state thstthe icading artists, Madame La
Grange, Miss Adelaide Phillips, signor Brignoli
and signor orisndini, more than satisfied CRIT
ieaiaudlenee in tho rendition Of their several
roies, would be but "damning with faint praise"
II was spendid performance In acting "a rare
merit In opera) and In yocalirationl' The appfo-
bation Of the audience was testined by heartfelt
applause, and repeated snoors. Madame La
Grange was superb az Leonora, and Miss Ade-
hide Phillips In her rendition OF Azuccns,
proved herself In singing and acting, to be in
fact the " American Prima Donna.n Brignoli as
Manrico and Orlandini as Count De Luna were
admirablei and we have only to add, In conclu-
sion, that there have been but few occasions In
our twenty years experience rs an habiius OF
the opera that we have been more highly grati-
fed with performance than that Of tho opera
Of" Trovatore," last night and those Of our
friends who were not there missed great treat.
Tonight the grand opera Of "Norma" will be
rendered. As Madame La Grange has won more
than mere iaurels in this, her most celebrated
role, another full house and gratined audience
may confidently be predicted. 5
NATIONAL TuEArRx.-Nptwithstan the
attraction of tho opera at Wallis this place OF
amusement was crowded last night TO see Mr..
John Owens. As DR.. Ollapod he made decided
hit, and sustained the reputation he enjoys ne
one Of the FIRST comedians Of the day. The play
Of "The Poor dentleman" is, in modern days,
sadly mutiiated on the stage. Take II entire 1t
Is one Of the finest Of English comedies, and II
strikes US that the character Of ollapod would
still afford leading actor sufficient opportunity
