SoLDENE TROUPE. - The Cincinnati
Commercial Of last Sunday has the fol-
lowing to say cf the above troupe, which
appeared in that city last week: 1.-THE
Soldeue troupe, at the Grand opera
house last week, drew great houses and
succeeded in Distinguishing itself by
some Of the most remarkable acts and
songs ever seen or heard on the stage in
this city" The troupe will appear at
the Memphis Theater tomorrow night,
presenting Trial by Jury and Chilperic;
Friday night, Nine LArchidue; Satur-
day matinee, La File de Madame Angot.
.The Louisville Courier. Journal thus
mentions Soldene's appearance in that
city Monday night last:
Chilperic was seen, laughed at aud ap-
plauded by q very large audience last
night. Here and there a family, Zine
Angot" perhaps, with her daughter and
husband; knots Of young men, fortified
with opera glasses, with an eye to the
beauty Of the form divine; couples of old
gentlemen, together in memory OF youth
full days; and altogether, a house bent
on enjoyment. 1t may be set down as
reasonably certain, that there will be full
houses Tor the two remaining perform
ances. There are some good capacities
in the troupe. The orchestra was ex-
%cellent, and the singing wes in the main
very good, but the opera bouffe itself
turned out to be hardly more than the
ground work for a melange Of scng
and action, without The slightest ADLER.
ence to the plot. There is everything
to please the eye. "Fredigonde" Miss
Rose Stella was the most pleasing
character. Miss Rose Stella has all the
fresbsess, grace and piquancy to ell any
part in this class OF opera, where the
qualities that make a charming and
%coqusttish Wemsn are demanded. She
will be the attraction in La File de
Madame Angot. Miss Emily Soldene
gave some of her ballads with a good
voice, The Rain Chorus and dance.

certain feature 10 the dancing in the per.

remarkable kicking out OF the traces
Her altitudino1s style of dancing met
with such enthusiastic Endorsement that
she had to appear before the curtain,
and astonish all beholders again with
her coup dc pied. She is graceful, and
what her ieats may be in the remaining
operas leaves room for conjecture. Miss
Solden's {" Chilperic's") Song of the
Butterfly was very prettily rendered.
SIENNA F" (Mr. Edward MarshalD gives
a sneezing song, very comical. The
quarreling duet between "Cbilperic "
Miss Soldene) and Fredigonde" Miss
Rose Stella) was the gem Of the opera,
as far as real merit goes ia the part Of
Miss Rose Stella's singing and graceful
acting; although ~Fredigonde's

Fatont" (Ms. Jchn Wallaee), the chief
comedian, was very comical in one or
two scenes This evening we are given
La File de Mime Angot, which will
probably be rendered with more atten-
ton TO the opera itself. 1t is one of the
best. The Conspirators' Chorus, the
Quarreling Duet, and other songs, with
certain fascinating values, which cannot
be left out, will make this f~avorite opera
worth hearing. Mr.. Campbell, as Lam
dry" displayed a good voice in The
Shepherds Song, while Miss Clara Vessy
was pleasing. The force can render La
File de Nine Angot well, and we expect
as much Of the troupe tonight. Miss
Rose Stella takes the part ct " Clairette,"
Miss Soldene that Of Mile LANCE" Mr..
knight Aston, " Ange Pitou."

taken rapidly.
