LOTTl's GERMAN OPERA.-To have seen Marie
FREDERICK IN the part Of Marguerite, in Gounoi's
justly famous opera Faust" is to the cOnnois-
seur TO have experienced a rare and fascinating
delight. And it was gratifying to us last evening
that, when she came upon the stage, il was to
see before her large and An evidently apprecia-
tive audience, every individual of which was ire
sistibly charmed by her grace Of manner and the
remarkable sweetness as we'll as the accuracy of
her voice. 1t was an entertainment which to
have missed were really misfortune. Mile
Dzinba as Siebel was also effective and extremely
pleasing. The duo in the first act. by Himmer
(Fdust) and Weinlich (AephiSt0pbeIes) ELECTED
loud applause, mingling with the distant chorus
both of male and female voices stealing in from
behind the scenes. The march in the fourth act
was gloriously rendered, aud, by the aid of a
brass band, produced an effect which made it diff
cult for hearers to remain quiet during its per.
fOTnanee. At its conclusion, enthusiasm COM
pletely controlled the audience. This evening
