CARLoTTA PATTI.-Thc return Of this distinguished
artist, whose name Is the representative of musical
family, reminds us OF the oft-recurring fact Of a
peculiar line OF genius making itself eminenty appa
rent in one family, as witness the name of Dumas
for literature, Tagoni for Terpsichorean art, and
the composers OF dance music, the GOdIreys three
of whom are equally celebrated. This celebrity Of
name is worldwide in the particular case of which
we now speak. The Patti family are intrinscally
and by habit and taste musical, AMI TO find one OF
that name who did not combine talent and taste for
the Divine Art would be remarkable. OF this rather
numerous family We have had nearly all the mem
bers before the public and although at present it is
solely represented by twO still we find the musical
talent so wonderfully concentrated in these two as
to fully show the innate ability heightened as It has
been by careful and unceasing culture. 10 saw that
IallOua fstti mas improved during her seven years
absence would be supcrfuOus and would speak
little for singer so conscientious she is for in
the expressive language OF the French press, 'She
lett America as blossom, she returned to 1t as ripe
Irult.' TO those who have heard her here and have
watched her career since her return she will he well
come If only for the pleasure OF witnessing the con-
trnation of their expectations and, indeed, il is
gratifying TO the public who first recognized genuine
talent in her 10 know that She returns o the arena
where her first effort was made with all the bushing
honors or her European tOur thick upon her. Sue
cess Is waiting Tor this lavOritc of the conCCrtrOOm
for we feel sure that prlna donna that untcs such
talent with the advantage Of previous reputation
cannot appeal to the public in vain, and we ven-
ture TO predicta great popularity for the Patti con-
ccrtS.
Strakosch has prepared for a lively season with
his singing bird. aud it is to he hoped the public
will not look cOldly on his venture The concerts
will take place at the Music Hail. the evenings of
Thursday, 14th Friday, 18th, aud one grand matt
nee on Saturday. 10th, at 23O p. NJ. See advertise
