Giuletta, otherwise known as
"Montecchi Copuletti, and I'll
Pirata' The FIRST three works are given
repeatedly. the other two not at all. Doni-
zetti wrote at least fifty operas, and is repre-
sented by "Lucin," "Lucrezia, Don Pas
quale" "L'elisir damorc, la Favorita,
and Linda di Chamouni." Meyerbeer's
"Huguenots is popular, his lie Prophete
is moderately so, his ''LAfricaue" seems
pretty well forgotten, his Stella del Nord' is
reproduced at long intervals his 'Dinorah'
has been revived with success lately, his
'Robert lie Diable' is given now and then; as
for the rest of his operas, his ''Margherta
d'Aniou, and so forth. so far as the English
public is concerned, they might never have
been written. Gluck's "Iphigenia in Tauris
was given a year OF two ago his other
compositions are forbidden fruit. Herold
and Boleldieu have dropped out of remem-
brance. Balfe, prolific writer is known by
his Bohemian Girl and "Rose of Castillo,
which are played in the provinces. Wallace,
amongst other works, has produced 'Lur-
line, the Gambler Witch and ''Maritana;'
the first and the last of these are the ones
by which he is familiar so the public. Mac
farren has written robin Hood, Don
Quixote," "Charles H." 'IIelvellyn,' and
'She Stoops to Conquer With how many
of these, we may ask, is the average reader
acquainted at all Wagner has embodied

grin, the "Flying Dutchman, Tristan and
Isolde" the "Meistersinger of Nuremburg,'
'Rheingold," and in minor degree in
'Rienzi" No London manager has yet seen
fit to allow any of these compositions a hear
ing. Flotow's Martha is liked, his "Stra-
della not at all. AMBROSE Thomas has met
with kind of success in Hamlet he will
meet with another success of the same sort
in 'Mignon." Beyond the writer's we have
named there arc host of others whose names
are not even known on this side of the chan
mel. Many of them, however, have produced
works whose success has been unequivocal
and lasting.

THE OPERA IN ENGLAND.

4 writer in the st. James 1Hdg0zine, in dis
cussing the past, present, and future of
opera in England, gives the following rapid
summary of the works that now hold the
stage in that country
The Operatic Stage of the present day Is
occupied almost exclusively by the works of
some half-dozen composers Beethovens
"Fidelio' is performed once or twice in
season, or not SO often. Weber's
"Oberon," and Der Freischutz," are
heard now and then, his ''EIry-
anthe" never. Gounod has written
some six of eight operas, and of them
Faust" has achieved popularity. Schuberts
music is never performed at all. Spohr has
written the following works amongst 9th BIS;
--''Azor and Zemire, ''Owl Queen, ''Ihe
Crusaders" The Alchemist," "Jesson1a,
"Pietro Won Abano,' and Faust" None o.
them have been given in London this many a
year. Auber has composed operas without
number; the following are amongst his best:
Masaniello, Fra DiavOlO, the Grown
Diamonds, "GustaYus III, ''Lestocq,' and
lie premier jour du bonheur.' Out OF these
half-do2en, 'Masanielo' has been repeats sdly,
Fra Diavolo' sometimes, performed. The
"Crown Diamonds has occasionally been
given in a mutilated shape by an English
company. The rest are strangers to us.
Rossini, who wrote lie Barbiere de Sc
viglia" William Tell, La Ga2za
Ladra, "Semiramide, La Donna
del Lago," "Tancredi. lie Siege de
Coyinth, 'IIicciardo Xorade," 'L'Italiani
in Algeria, aud ''Iurco in Italia" besides
others which it would be tedious to name, is
represented by the Barhiere' alone Gull
laume Tell" in AN incomplete form is given
occasionally '5emiramide, aud La Cana
Ladra' are heard at intervals. Mozart, on the
whole luckleT. ont of works s'ilDp
Juan, III fiaUto magco, lie Marriage de
/ Figaro" II SeTaglio, La Clemenza d
Tito, and ''Cos fan tutti, three are toler-
ably well known in this country. Cherubini's
fine opera "Medea, reckoned by Beethoven
the grandest dramatic composition in the
world, seems a drug in the market. Verdi,
out Of compositions innumerable, is known
! by his ''Trovatore' and ''Traviata' "Un
ballo en- Maschera" il run on periodically when
! a more popular work has to be withdrawn.

FINANCIAL.

one Of the few securities we feel safe in recon-
mendng good.
The importance OF the route connecting the head
Of the Mississippi River navigation with the head of
Lake Superior, and receiving the trade OF the five
railroads ccntring at St Paul, will insure to this
road large and profitable trade. The Land Grant
1G32 000 acrea-is in itself an amply sufficient basis
for the mortgage (s4,5O0000), and all proceeds OF
land sales are applied directly to cancellation OF the
bonds.
The parties in interest embrace some OF the first
railroad and financial men Of the country, and Mr..
Moorhead Of our firm, is one OF the Trustees Of the
mortgage.
The construction Of the road is progressing rapidly,
and the whole line will be completed in time for the
moving OF the crops OF 1870.
We recommend these bonds as paying much
larger interest than Government Securities, without
the risk of high premium. We have for sale
100000 at the original subscription price, 95 and
accrued interest in currency denominations $500
and $1,000 coupon). Purchasers this month have the
advantage OF the gold coupon, payable at our office
on January 1.-The premium upon which is equal to
nearly q per cent, making the price lower than
many bonds OF much less merit now offered to the
public
We receive in payment Governments and other
securities at their market value, and January cou-
pons at the current gold price of the day.

Men Of Actio n Against Passive Men

A written contribution for the Her
aid is printed this week, after some
delay. 1t is personal and revolu>
tionary in its style, though we have
taken the liberty to trim out what
seemed to be rather offensive to par
ticulsr persons, and modified the
tone Of parts. We have to admit
the justice Of much the writer says
OF Lancaster men and influence,
though we hope soon to report as
much of the progressive spirit for
Lancaster men as for those of any
other town. The trouble with
eur men is that they do not become
public spirited with their growth in
wealth but hold on to the same mar
row economy that gave them a start
~ hrst. In most western towns,
those who open in a small way, and
get rich become progressive and
spirited, invest their capital in a way
TO drive things ahead, help every.
body and thereby double their own
fortunes. We suppose this is what
"a Farmer" aims to encourage by
his letter writing. He would encour.
age men to become large, generous,
noble and progressive by a positive
or or leadingline of business conduct.
He would encourage a popular or of:
fetal support only of men who are
positive, radical and progressive, and
would leave out for dry-rot those
who are of negative or dc-nothing
turn. We guess be is right.
AS to his illusions to the editor OF
the Herald, if a free criticism of his
conduct can aid in the twenty year
forward step of Grant County, lei
the criticism progress, and if we
are standing in the way of the ball
we are prepared to step aside any
day and let her roll forward that all
hindrances may be crushed out
Speak frankly, good friends, and we
shall not stand upon the order of our
march whether it be forward or to
one side.
The article may induce Lancaster
men to prepare u dozen Fourth July
orations, ten Sunday School lectures,
and six Railroad speeches, and do
nations to the amount of seventy,
five cents for charities. The dry
bones will be heard from. Rattle
them again, but with an eye to brew
itY.

a0r According to Chinese writer's
the great bell of anton was cast five
centuries ago. At first no person
was bold enough 10 strike it. After
ward, however, one of the officials
ordered it to.be struck, whereupon up-
ward of one thousand infants. male
and female, died throughout the city.
On this account, young children,
both boys and girls, were made to
wear clothing with fringes, to which
small silver bells were attached, as a
charm to ward off the evil influence.
sw-A gentleman arrived in New
York from California, on the 18th
who says that seventeen years ago,
when he was seventeen years of age,
he resided in Meriden, Conn, and
his father whipped him with cart
whip. Not relishing the sting, be
vamosed for California, His age is
now double what it was then. and he
returns overland, with wife and cart
load of money, having become rich.
