MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.
The Academy OF Music.

The selection OF III TrOvatOre" for presentation
on yesterday was fully justified by the crowded
audience that assembled to listen to Its familiar
strains. Its popularity Is no doubt, greatly assisted
by the peculiar fitness OF the roles to bring out the
best qualities of the artists of the combination
pany. The performance yesterday was marked by
unusual brilliancy and exhibited decided improve
ment on those previously given. The cast was the
same as on former occasions, Madame Pa
repa-Rosa appearing as LeOnora, Miss Phillips
as Azucena, Santley as the Count de Luna, Wach-
tel as Manrico, Hall as Fernando. Madame Parepa-
Rosa was in excellent voice and displayed to the
fullest extent her norid vocazation. Her render
ing of the cavatina, 'Tacea 10 Motto Placda,n was
thoroughly artistic, though the addition Of lit
tie more feeling would have been an improve
ment. But the aria, "Amor Sulrali Rosce,' was
duet and trio In the last act she seemed to exhaust
the resources of vocalzation, exhibiting ast0nish-
ing nexbility in her higher notes. The role
OF AZucena Is well suited to the character
of Miss Phillips voice, while aording her full scope
for her declamatory powers. Her rendering OF the
song "Stride la vampa" was not very satisfactory,
preston ana force. Wachtel finds in Manrico a
role cengenial to his manner OF sing
advantage. Yesterday his execution was not only
brilliant but remarkably assured. 1t was not
married by any unhealthy straining after effect.
In the song, "Di quela pira rorrendo luoco," he
found sufficient opportunity for legitimate dis
play or his full power, and he seemed TO have con-
centrated all his energy for this effort.
The wonderful cearncss and purity Of the high notes
are something phenomenal, and In addition this ar
list throws amount of passion that eectriies the
audience into his delivery OF telling passages His
success Yesterday was so great that the. audi
ence, not content with exacting an encore,
brought Wachtel several times before the
curtain, rendering him perfect ovation. It
was high honor, but certainly the way in
which he sang during the performance fully justi-
fed It, We would make an exception In the case
Of the romance, "Deserto sua terra" which
showed no signs OF improvement. Santey
was rs charming and artistic as ever.
All through the opera he sang with
care and polish, but his great success
the rendering of the %" balen del suO, sorrisO" for
which he received rapturous encore. Hall sang
very creditaby the cavatina "Dl due fgli." Tho
''Msrere" chorus rather poor, and tho
soldiers chorus was marred by being sung
too quickly; but these trihng shortcomings
passed almost unnoticed, in view of the general ex-
cellence OF the performance whole. The fire.
quent presentation of this opera has trained the as
sstants to act together, and thus as a result, we
have more perfect rendering than has been Sc
cured in any other instance by this company On
Monday night martha" will be given.

THE TRUTH AT LAST

From Washington il is announced that
representative Beck Of Kentucky, aided
by senators Bayard and Blair, is prepar-
ing a repor. to congress in relation to the
carpet-bag governments, which have been
foisted upon the southern states since the
war 1t will be shown that these pre-
cious rascals have plundered their respec-
tive states Of over two hundred millions
Of dollars, If not more. 1t is time that the
truth in regard to these matters was laid
before the world. We do not believe that
in the whole history governments, since
| civilization and enlightened rule became
the recognized influences, that greater
frauds and more consummste villainy have
ever been seen, than have marked the rad
zeal carpet-bag government Of the south.
Unblushing plumber and open spoliation,
backed up by the most atrocious
Legislation and favoritism have been the
rule, and in no case that We are awale Of
the exception in single state. As a conse-
quence Of such acts, and deprived of any
resource whereby they could remedy the
evils under which they were slowly but
surely being pressed to the ground, a
large portion Of the southern people have
given vent to their Indignation by opposi-
lion, which gave pretended occasion for
the passage Of the ku-klux and similar
laws by congress. How the radical ad-
ministration, in effect, took advantage of
the inexcusable conduct of their own par
tisans and hireiings, 10 enact such regf.ia-
ton as still further oppressed and humili-
atei people already on the verge OF
financial ruin = we'll known.
We arc glad tina. this ex-
position j. to be made, for it will do more
to open tde eyes of the people than all the
protests which can be uttered.
