SAN FRANCISCO, May IL, 1893.
Consul Godoy, Of Mexico, officially authorizes the
denial Of the report that President Juaez has had to
leave the capital in consequence OF fresh revolution
having broken out there
The reports which had reached here to the effect
that the present national government of the Mexican
republic had been overthrown are unfOunded. We
have advices from tho capital to the LIST instant which
state that the President Is In quiet possession Of the
national authority and that all the recent attempts
at revolution and insurrecton In the different parts
Of the Mexican republic have been put down.
According to last accounts General Angel Martinez
had gone to Topic, and was on Ills way to make an
act Of submission to the national government. The
same accounts report the States OF Sinaloa and
Guerrero tranquil Thus the great rebellions OF the
Pacific coast are at an end.
Governor Pesqueira Of Sonora, is reported to have
had narrow escape from the hands Of the Apache
Indians. These latter have recently made terrible
raids around the town Of Arizpe. This town has Q
population of about two thousand Inhabitants, and
was formerly capital OF the district now comprised
within the States Of Sonora and Sinaloa. 1t Is now
classed chief town Of the district OF Sonora the

THEATRE FRANCAIs-ES6LIsH OPERA.-'Maritana"
given last night bef0re large and decidedly
fashionable audience We cannot add anything new
to what we have repeatedly written about this OPERA
Although lacking In OrchestratOn in of the best
scenes yet its delightful melodies are grateful
and popular. Tho "Harp in the Air." which was
splendidly sung by Miss Richings, Is one OF
the pest airs that we have ever heard In
opera. Mrs. Segun, nee Miss Zelda Harrison
m ade the most decided success in the character OF
Lazarlo. Her exquisite contrato voice, one OF the
most grateful and sympathetic that America has yet
produced, rendered the charming air In the begin
ming OF the second act with rare effect Such an ac
complished artist IL o valuable acquisition to any
troupe. Castle, Campbell and Peakes, in the r6es OF
Don Caesar de Bazan, Don Jose and King Charles IT,,
acquitted themselves creditably ana won numerous
cnc0res. Mr.. Behrens must exercise more control
over the orchestra to satisfy his hearers.
THE NEW YORK THEATRE.-The escapades and
focs OF the captivating Paris and the fair but dcke
Helen as portrayed by the vivaclous and sparkling
sisters Irene and Sophie worrel in the lively musi-
cal buresque now the boards at this theatre, Is
OF the most amusing theatrical attractions Of the
day, and Is certainly better suited for the display OF
the peculiar abilities Of these gifted young ladies'
than any piece in which they have as yet appeared
together. The acting Is fair, the singing good. and
the play, considered as an absurd musical buresque
up burlesque, possesses attraction almost as
potent that which centuries ago drew around the
original crring brace OF worthless in classic Troy oil
IN at was noble and brave In chivalrous Greece.
The only grease discernibe here, however
IL concentrated upon two spots on the scenery
and might be more udiciously applied to machinery
which, by the way works abomnably; the scenery
too, Is not good the play demands neither does
1t harmonic contrast nicely with the superb CO.'S
tunes OF the popular sisters. Scenery alone very
often plays an Important part In the theatre and It
certainly should never be entirely ignored or permit
ted to deterforate beyond the mediocre Last even
ing the house crowded and the playing and sing
ing fully appreciated by the audience as was attested
by the vociferous rounds OF applause that greeted
Orestes, Helen and Paris and which at times almost
interrupted the piece. Miss Jennie worrell as
Orestes appeared to better advantage, and has
seldom been In inner voice, and, in fact, the same
might be said of both the other sisters. Irene and

Emigration from Europe to the United States.
The tide of emigration is again rolling to
our shores. Vessels filed with their living
freights and from different parts of Europe
have already begun to arrive at this port. The
Erin and the Deutschland, which arrived here
on Saturday, brought respectively L. 1874 and
$40; in all, 100 passengers. -Four steamers
are known to have left Liverpool and Queens
town, all well filed with passengers and all
hereward bound. The German ports, we
learn, are equally busy From letter which
we published in the HERALD of Monday, from
the pen of our special correspondent at Berlin,
it appears that, Notwithstanding the improving
prospects of Fatherland, emigration to America
is becoming more and more German passion.
Between Good Friday and Easter Monday 547
Pomeranians passed through Berlin en- route
TO New York; and this, we are told, is only
specimen of what is taking place in other
States, counties and districts Our corre-
spondent mentions that the feudal and con-
servative journals are raising wall of sorrow
over the general exodus. From other
sources we learn that emigration from
Denmark and Sweden promises to be ON
scale proportionally large. France and even
Italy have caught the contagion; and it is GER
tain that our French and Italian population
will this summer be greatly increased. Come,
and welcome, are the best and the worst we have
10 say. Every Industrious immigrant is worth
80 much to us. He is no burden, but positive
gain. This, however, is no home for the idler.
Jf.men will not work they must want. But to
all who are willing to be Industrious and thrifty
this country offers comfort and plenty. Some
must remain with us here in New York, but
the greater portion will move westward. Those
who wait here will no doubt find employment
and home; but the true field for the immigrant
Is the prairie or the forest of the boundess West.
There virgin nature waits to yield up her riches
as a reward to industry and thrift.
FIVE have anything to deplore in this threat
ened immigration it is this: that many of the
Danes and Swedes the purest in blood, the
healthiest and the most vigorous of the Euro
pean races, have been foolish enough to cast in
their lot with the Mormon fraternity. The
Mormon elders are wise in their generation.
In their attention to duty they are not forget
ful Of pleasure. In providing for the future
they are by no means Indifferent to the present
In preparing seed who shall serve the Lord it
must be honestly admitted that they have i'm
proved somewhat upon the ancient Jewish
model. Seriously, the growth and activity of
Mormonism are well worthy the attention Of
the religious societies.
