OPERATIC CONCERT.

The attendance last night at the Carson
| Opera House was light, distressly hight, we are
sorry to say. The entertainment was tirst-cass,
| and it certainly should have been better patron
| ized Miss Amy Sherwin as prlma dona IS all
that the San Francisco and Virginia City
critics have claimed for her. The first part
! opened with a cavatina from Roberto II
| Dlayolo, by Mrs Porteous, which was sweetly
| and artisticaIy rendered. Miss Amy Sherwin
made her first appearance for the evening III
cavatina from Sonambula, and her sweet,
strong soprano voice, her excellent artlcuia-
| ton, and her fine stage presence at once took
the audience captive. Mr. Leisk followed
with a tenor solo fairly rendered. The gen
tleman, we understand, is a professional,
which accounts, no doubt, for considerable
stage awkwardness and good deal of nervous
ness Kathleen Mavourneen was sung by
Miss Sherwin with more expression and sweet
ness than we had ever heard before, and for
an encore she sang Scotch ballad
in excellent style The old and favor
tie duo from Norma, De Conte, was sung
by Miss Sherwin and Mrs. Porteous magnif-
Gently, and it received the strongest encore of
the evening In the second part Mrs. POrteous
sang Scenes that are Brightest, from Mari
tana, and sang it admirably. The programme
was faithfully carried out, and those were
fortunate indeed who attended last nights
entertainment.
