tary exploits In Mexico. AS for the merits of
the piece itself, 1t is composed of an easily
understood plot that has the merit of simpli-
city of least, and presents :. number of broad
and obvious stage effects that appeal strongly
to the sympathies of an average audience. The
story, such as 1t is, relates how "Wilhelm
Schultz" q German commission merchant, be-
comes involved in difficulties through the viii
lainies of his partner, 'John Twistman." A
personal encounter between the two men takes
place. and "Twistman" is badly hurt, and in
the opinion of Schultz, is killed The Ger
man manages to make his escape, and enlisting
in the army is sent to frontier post, where he
suffers all possible pangs of remorse for his sup
posed crime. In course of time the
mail brings the information that he
has fallen heir to large fortune
and that he has been discharged from the army
at the solicitation of the North German min
lister. The same stage-coach by which this
welcome intelligence is received also brings to
the fort "Twistmsn," who has fled to the plains
to escape the consequences of his many crimes.
His appearance happily convinces "Schultz"
that be is not murderer, ana "Iwistman" is,
to the satisfaction of the German, arrested by
the officers of the fort as a deserter from the
army and is placed under arrest. Schultz
makes his way to the East, and arrives in New
York just in time to prevent the second mar
riage Of his wife, who has believed him dead,
and the play winds up happily for all in it who
deserve happiness, as such plays always should.
Mr.. Florence acts the part of Schultz
which is somewhat out of his usual line, with
much skill, and secures all the sympathies the
audience have to bestow. Mrs. Florence as
Louisa Schultz" is LEES successful in Initiating
the broken English dialect, but she makes
amends for this by the vivacity with which she
acts her part The company of the theatre give
an efficient support in the subordinate charac-
ters, and the play on the whole is we'll repre-

"FideIIO' Mt the Academy OF Music
The brief season of German opera was In
augurated at the Academy of Music last even
ing, in the presence of a large and fashionable
audience. The opera given was Beethoven's
immortal work FSdelio and the performance
throughout was an even and excellent one. The
cast was almost entirely a new one to this city.
Madame Louise Llchtmay made her first appear
ance before Philadelphia audience, in the diff
cult role of 'Ieonora," and the impression that
she created, by her acting as we'll as by her
singing, was exceedingly favorable. She pos
sesses full and powerful soprano voice. of fine
quality and much dramatic expression. She
sings with remarkable energy, and acts with q
clear perception of the demands of the situa-
tion. Throughout the evening she was enthusi-
astically received by the audience. Madlle
Bertha Roemer, who sung the part of "Marcel-
iine," was also stranger to q
Philadelphia audience, and although not max
ing pretensions to the highest rank, acquitted
herself most creditably. Mrs Theodore Habel-
mann, whose fine voice Is so well known in
this city, appeared in a new part, that of
"Jacquino, while Mr.. Carl Formes reappeared
In his admirable and effective role of "Rocquo."
The voice of Mr.. Formes has been
one of the wonders of the lyric stage The
London critics have pronounced it the most
magnificent base voice ever heard In the Eng
lish metropolis. Last evening he was enthusi-
astically received by the audience, and
his performance showed that his voice
still retains much of its old volume
and sweetness. The remainder of the cast
embraced Mr.. Carl Bernard as "Florestan, Mr..
Edward Yierling as 'Pizarro," and Mr.. VIII
helm Formes as the Governor" all of whom
were creditable and satisfactory. Throughout
the evening the concerted pieces were we'll exc
cutt d, from the quartette in the first act "Mir
ist so wunderbar," to the magnificent ensembles
of the closing scenes in 'Florestan's' dungeon.
The chorus and the orchestra we're both good,
and, altogether, the performance was highly
satisfactory, fact to which the hearty applause
of the audience bore unmistakable evidence.
