TIE OPERA
The third performance Of tho Kellogg troupe
was that Of "Tho Bohemian Girl" given last
evening to another dcnscly-crowlcd house,
every seat being full aud tho Hobbies crowded,
showing that this familiar opera, whose ballads
arc as common as household words, still retains
It's hold upon opora-gocrs. Its representation
by this troupe has been 80 frequent hcra TINT
We need not 70 into details. 1n point Of fact
criticism is very largely precludcd since It was
given in a manner deserving Of praise rnther
than Of ccnsnre, In which respect it is In very
decided contrast with the wrctchcd flasco Of the
Strakosch trs'upo in tho same opera recently.

protect American and foreign citizens.
Diaz was received with JOY in Matamoras
Heavy cannonading was going on at two
forts near the city yesterday morning.
The forts are held by few loyal troops
Citizens are pouring into Brownsville to
AVOID conflict, and the greatest excite
