The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1868-09-24

The fall season of opera 5ou6e is about
to bloom. 1t is budding at Niblo's. 1t is to
burst into full blossom at the Theatre Francois
on the 9th Of October. Between Graus new
company, who arrived from Brest on Tuesday,
and Bateman's well tried company on Broad
way we shall have delightful variety in this
kind of entertainment during the coming winter.
To Italian opera, with all its charms, its faults
and its Encouragement, IL appears that we
have bid farewell for the present. The Acad-
envy of Music killed the opera and the opera
killed the Academy. If we look for the reason
we may find it in the persistent efforts to i'm
pose upon the public in the matter Of talent
and management for some years past. Such
management of opera as might have been
tolerated twenty years ago, when people were
satisfied with an occasional star at Castle
Garden, will not suit the advanced intelligence,
increased refinement and accumulated wealth
of the present population. 1t took ten years
of bad management to kill of Italian opera. 1t
died, in fact, by slow poison, and it may take
many years to revive 1t again. italian opera
music is now about to find its solitary repre-
sentative in the concert rooms of the provincial
towns under the direction of Max Strakosch,
with Kellogg as the prima donna, and the
wandering troupe Of Maretzek, who are pcram-
bulating the Western cities on the borders of
civilization.
We are sorry for the stockholders of the
Academy, because they might have secured
better managers than il was their evil fortune
to alight upon but these things cannot be
helped now. The mischief is done, and 1t may
be some consolation for the stockholders to
know that the house is still available for balls,
lectures and charity fairs, which, by good
good management, may bring in moderate
return.
In the matter of opera bou6e we shall not
want. We have Bateman, the pioneer, the
Cortcz of this enterprise, who, although ope-
rating so far down town as Niblo's, with all the
down town disadvantages to contend with, Is
making out Aourishing season. Now comes
into tho field Grau, tho Pizarro, ripe for
conquest, clad in the ponoply Of con-
queror, but more polished and refined than
his Spanish prototype. He brings to US some

1865, is evidence of the ease with which the
allies thought to carry their point. The weak
kneed efforts of Secretary Seward at mediation
encouraged them in the idea that Paraguay
would be left severely alone; but this present
mission of gallant defender of republican
institutions and free trade against the schemes
and efforts of aristocracy and oligarcby, as
well as monarchy, proves that the American
government has at last awakened to the i'm
portance in South America of the'very cause
for which we in North America have talked,
voted and fought since 1861.

Internal Revenue Frauds and Their Inves-
tIgntiOn.


There seems to be inextricable confusion
all round about internal revenue matters, and
as consequence the hundred millions of dol
lars or more that the government acknow-
lodges to have lost by frauds are likely to swell
up to two hundred millions before the Disgrace
Gus officials, Mr.. McCulloch and Commissioner
Rollins, will neither do anything themselves to
check DISCRIMINATION and frauds in the in
ternal revenue nor let the President or any
one else Congress legislated away for politi-
cal objects and out of spite to Mr.. Johnson the
executive power over this important branch OF
the public service and left it without any
responsible head. Commissioner Rollins,
backed by the radicals, defles tho
President, but will do nothing to put
an end to the embarrassing and ruinous
state of things Mr.. McCulloch is equally as
impracticable and obstinate. The internal
revenue thieves and rascally officials are de-
lighted at this deadlock and are making q
rich harvest. Never before was there such
disgraceful spectacle seen in this country.
One would think the loss of hundred millions
of revenue by frauds and the prospect of losing
two hundred millions through the continued
quarrcls and hostility between the heads or
tho government ought to arouse Congress and
the people to a sense of the enormous evui
yet from all that has occurred and is occur
ring there appears to be the most astonishing
supineness and Indifference. Such is TIA
power, too, Of the whiskcy and other rings OF
defrauders that what efforts have been made
to reach the evil have been defeated.

War.
The departure of General McMahon yester-
day by the steamer Mississippi Tor Rio Janeiro
as Minister of the United States TO the republics
holding the mouth of the Rio de Ia Plata
marks period in the history of this gigantic
South American war. AT this we have no
reason to wonder. General Mcmahon has
taken gallant part in the settlement Of war
very like to this in its main features. That
settlement was in favor of our cause-that Of
republican institutions in North America.
There is every reason to believe that his pres
ent diplomatic mission will turn out as advan-
tageously to the cause of those same institu-
tons in the southern half of our Continent.
The empire of Brazil has for some time been
bugbear to its neighboring republics. Even
New Granada feared that the control of the
Amazon valley, held by Brazil, would eventu-
ally prove stumbling block to the free COM
mercial intercourse of that republic with
Europe and the business world. But so soon
as the South Americans realized the fact that
the commercial centres Of the world must be
located outside Of the tropical region the Euro
pean mercantile interests centred in Brazil
urged the imperial government Of Dom Pedro
H. to extend the frontier of the empire to the
Rio de Ia Plata and there build up a second
New York. The republics of South America
were duly made aware of this policy, as well
as of the reasons thereof, and foremost among
these republics was the gallant little State of
Paraguay. Her neighbor, Uruguay, the
weakest of the South American republics.
overawed by the diplomatic and military
powers Of Brazil, was about TO be overrun
and incorporated by the empire when Para
quay stepped forward and announced to the
world what was the policy Of Brazil, as well
as the reasons why she and her sister repub-
lies were determined to oppose 1t. She pro-
claimed that the first u warranted aggression
on Uruguay would be met with hostilities on
the part of Paraguay. IL must be borne in
mind that ut this time the west coast republics
were embroiled in q war with Spain, otherwise
the aid they would have given Paraguay and
Uruguay would have long since ended this
war, and probably the empire Of Dom Pedro.
However, the idea that undcrlies General
McMahons mission is magnificent one. II is
none other than that the republics of South
America should band together to secure The
traffic of the Rio dc la Plate for the COM
mon good of the whole Continent, Just
as the States of our Union banded

OF the best artists In Europe, many of them
heralded by q, European fame and all of them
equal to the task for which this irrepressible
and fortunate smpres0rio pledges their reputa-
ton. There is plenty Of room for both com

profit will attend each of them. Before the
curtain rises upon the first opera at the French
theatre Graus pocket will be drawn upon for
some eighty thousand dollars between the ad-
vance salaries of the artists, the costumes and
the scenery. 1t will not take long to get that
sum back, of course, because op6ra bou0e is
going to pay here this season; but the mana
ger is not the less entitled to credit for his
enterprise. The people will enjoy themselves
immensely over such operas as 'Genevieve de
Brabant," ''Barbe Bleue" and the revived
''Grande Duchesse," and New York may for
the nonce imagine itself little Paris.
