THE OPERA.-On last evening large au'
dicnce assembled to hear the rendition OF
Donizetti's Daughter Of the Regiment by
the famous Oates Company.
The performance was without exception
the most brilliant ever seen in this city, and
called down the loud and reiterated applause
Of the audience.
Mrs. Jas. Oates as Josephine, in which
character she stands without rival, appear
ed to greater advantage than ever. Her
acting was interspersed with such an amount
Of naivette sprightliness and quaint sumor
as to perfectly transpor. the audience with
delight. "Dites lui,' "R0berto TOT que
jaime the lxon Medley, were rendered
| with brilliAncy Of execution and the most
perfect finish. Her runs and trills being
beautiful in their clarity, and the easy man
ner in which she reached the high c seemed
| perfectly to astonish tho most accomplished
| musicians.
| Verify we are at loss to know where thii
talented little lady gets such volume Of
voice.
J Mr.. J II. Chatterson made his initial ep
| pearance in the role Of Guilliot, in the COO.
cepiion of which he WAS extremely happy
His acting showed very great finish, which
study.
IA vocalist he undoubtedly stands in
the foremost rank, being possessed Of a mag
nifcent tenor di gratia voice of great com
pass, full, rich, and mellow, and exquisitely
sweet. His rendering Of "Alice where ar,
thou" WAS so perfectly artistic as to call
down tumultuous encore.
j. B. Turner we have never seen to great
er advantage than on last evening, ia. his
soldier,y character Of Sergeant Scslade; hit
impersonation was immense, and he receiv
ed well merited share of the applause.
Sheldon was overwhelmingly humorous as
Pumpernckle with his Horrible Horrible
Horrible! which seemed to amuse every one
. particularly one individual who must hav
4 passed all uncomfortable night, for he in
dulged his visible features to such an exten
that we were afraid of a sudden collapse O
, his vest buttons.
Taylor as Duke de Grande wasreally very
delightful.
Emma Leland made very digniGed and
stately Warehouses, and is evidently q
finished actress.
Miss Pauline Hayden as the Duchess and
Miss Julia Morrell as the Little Corporal
made quite hit
The charming strains of the Tumbleroni
con, seemed perfectly to entrance the audi
ence, and Prof O'Reardon was the recipient
Of loud and persistent encore.
In addition, Mr.. O'Reardon played the &C.
compartments TO the various solos of the
evening, evincing a perfect mastership
of the piano forte. AS a director of the or.
chestra the Professor is second to none.
