THs oPEnA.-MIss Moculloeh's Italian
opera troupe gave their secord aud last
performance at the New Memphis last
night to another refined and cultivated,
though not large. audience. All who
were present the evening previous, and
witnessed the great faror and enihu-
siasm with which the Barber Of Ssviiie
was received, and curselvea among the
number, we're sadly disappointed In
noting this second house. There is
an invariable disposition to await the
verdict Of the first audience, and when
that is favorable, seldom does il occur
that on to the close Of the engagement,
where not exhaustively protracted, there
is not an increased and increasing at
tendance. All rules, however. like the
signs in foul weather, seem to fail at this
time, be il attributable to what il may
perhaps rather to the lack OF gold than
golden opinions Of the young prima
donna in this instance. The presenta

cepiionably brilliant and received with
