Academy of Music last night. The MADAM,
Vine and Lazy Isabel Of Mrs. Bowers wer(
truthful and natural approximations. Mr.
McCollOm's Sir francis LeciSon was so vel
rendered that the most careful critics coulC
lind no fault with it, while the support Of
the leading actors by the members of the
company was very satisfactory. This eve
ming, the historical play OF Elizabeth.
with Mrs. Bowers in one Of her best charac

St Charles Theatre.
The st. Charles always vas the favorite
theatre of large portion of our citizens
and many of the visitors to the Crescent
City. There is grandeur about the in
terror appt arance of the Old Drury tina,

played with unprecedented success at Wal
lack Theatre. New York. The first of the

credit for inaugurating the Wednesday ma
tinees. and the public freely express the
hope that these matinees may be continued

The NIoulton Concerts.
The American songstress. Mrs. Charles
at Odd Fellows Hall, the first tomorrow
evening. commencing at halfpast seven
o'clock. OF the merits Of Mrs. Moulton as a
vocalist there can be no doubt. All testi
mOny concurs to confirm that belief. Seats
may be secured at the music store Of Louis
Grunewald, No. 129 Canal street.
The Courier des Eats Lnis says Of Mrs
Moulton's first concert in New York:
At length came the first concert. 1t was
the day before yesterday, at Steinway Hall.
All the high representatives Of wealth,
fashion and beauty were there; evening
dress was demise j; 1ow-cut waists and white
cravats were in the majority. 1t was clearly
a gala event. and la dira would have been
justified in fancying that she held an i'm
perial audience under the spell Of her re-
publican arist0cracy.
Her appearance, Of course, was the signal
of storm of applause. Then silence
reigned, and it was given to mortals to hear
a heavenly voice.
Mrs MoultOn first sang "Bel Raggio." from
"Semiramide," and Rossini's admirable en-
broidery was never executed with greater
ease and purity Then Gounod's save
Maria" exhibited in the prolonged notes an
incompatible frmness and equality OF
tone. Thus much for the instrument; as
for the sentiment and method, they are
perfection, and we doubt if any artist can
express with more soul all the shades OF
that divine melopalia.
