LONDON, March /, 1879.
The Carl Rosa English Opera season.
which began at Her Majesty's Theatre Hay
market, on the 9th of January, has proved
so successful that u has been extended in
definitely. This announcement is highly
gratifying to the lovers of opera
in the English metropolis, as it was gen.
orally assumed that the present season is
test one for opera in the vernacular.
Three years ago Mr.. Carl Rosa gave a short
season of English opera at the Princess,
as an experiment; two years ago he took
the Lyceum for q seven weeks season. and
in the following year he had similar season
at the Adelphi. Each season proved, how
ever, financially unsatisfactory, and it is
pleasure to be able to announce the fact that
lish opera have at last been crowned with
artistic and financial success. The chief
operas of the present season have been Rich
ard Wagner's 'Rienzi" and Bizet's Scar
men," In the former MI. Mas took the
part of the Roman Tribune and achieved
most remarkable success, as also did Nine.
Vanzini, as Irene, the Tribune's sister.
The opera was produced in style worthy
of the court theatres of Germany, with
splendor of scenery, brilliancy and
archaeological correctness Of costume, that
took London completely by surprise. $50
gorgeous o spectacle" says an English jour-
nal twas never before seen within the walls
OF Her Majesty's Theatre" The English
version of Bizet's Carmen" proved equally
successful. Nine. Dolaro played the part
Of the Spanish gypsy girl. and Mr.. Walter
Bolton proved q worthy successor Of Del
Puente as Escamillo. Giraud's opera, epic
colino," failed to attract in London, though
It met with enthusiastic success when
first performed in Dublin, with Miss
Gaylord as the heroine. Other operas given
were Meyerbeer's ''Huguenots," Balfes
Bohemian Girl" and Benedict's "Lily of
Killarney" The opera is crowded nightly
by the leaders of the fashionable world, and
the papers hope that Mr.. Rosa will succeed
in making English opera a permanent insti-
tuition in the English metropolis.

Mr. st. Patrick Tudor. who is now attempting the
ride between New York and Punta Arenas. Patagonia
arrived in Richmond last night at seven o'clock.
having accomplished the march from Fredericks-
burg in two days and from Washington in five
days. Mr.. Tudor is looking extremely well and
hearty much bronzed with exposure. but evidently
hard as nails" ON his leaving Washington crowd
of some three thousand people took cordial
leave Of him. His companion tdr. Duffy
showed the white feather at Alexandria,
and for tho second time deserted the
expedition. Mr.. Tudor then reduced to the
necessity OF hauling very unwilling Loader along
about seventy miles of infamously neglected roads.

midst Of tho forest. to fredericksburg.
passing through Acotink Mount Vernon, Ne

Falmouth 60 fredericksburg. At this spirited little
city he received a warm ovation and was set on his
way by . throng comprising most OF the leading In
habitants. His horses were freely entertained by Mr.
Garrett, while merely nominal sum was charged
him ut the leading hotel OF the city. He
rived at Golansvilc ON Thursday evening. in company
with youth named Hamilton. who joined him at
Fredericksburg To try his hand in expeditionary
service. and who SO far gives great satisfaction.
The two left Golansvilio yesterday friday morning
At halt past eight o'clock. and hail slow but
PROSPEROUS march to ltichinond. Mr.. Tudor appears
incapable of fatigue or low spirits. talks with in
creased confidence Of the future and is loud in praise
of his dun mare &c Mimi. which has como from
New York without turning hair.
No bet ON THE ESTERrRIsE.

lication by the Washington Republican, that he
had a bet of s5o,o0O i'll connection with tho

vcxed at being detained here till Monday by the non

HEADING FOR WESTERN TExAs.
He next marches In the direction OF Lynchburg
intending to make the shortest route to Brownsville

THE FRENCH AMNESTY BILL-EGYpTIAN FL
NANcE-THE GREEK FRONTIER QUESTION.
[BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.l
LONDON. March 1, 1879.
In the debate the Amnesty bill. continued in
the French Senate on Friday afternoon. NJ. c. Royer
Minister of Justice. said he would not deny that
persons unworthy of pardon might return to Paris
but this need not cause any alarm. If any of them
showed ingrattude the government would know how
to be rigorous. In the Chamber of Deputies to-day
NJ. Lisbonne, member Of the Left. interrogated NJ
Marcere as to his for stopping the inquiry
into the malpractices Of the Police Department
NJ. Marcere, amid perfect silence among the
Left. defended the police and protested in
vehement and agitated voice. against the caumnies.
such charges of financial jobbing. which had been
uttered against himself. BY mutual consent the
Chamber resolved to turn the matter at issue into
Interpolation, which was fixed for Monday.
EGYPTIAN FINANCES
Paris despatch to the Times says that France has
asked time before agreeing to joint action with Eng
land for the reinstatement of Nubar Pacha in the
Egyptian Ministry. 1t is not very easy under
taking to obtain the Khedive's consent to
Nubar Pacha's return either Minister of Foreign
Affairs and Minister of Justice or of Foreign Affairs
only. particularly if. as alleged. the Khedive pro-
poses offer the portfolio of Justice to represen
tative of a third foreign nation. France and Eng
land, when they intervene. cannot submit to
refusal, and France, before coming to decision to
act with England in this matter, had to weigh
fully the resolutions which, in the event of refusal
would be forced upon her. In this connection it
may be interesting to note that the British ronclad
Raleigh has just arrived at Alexandria.
GREEK FRONTIER QUESTION.
The Times correspondent at Constantinople
says:-"The French and English Ambassadors have
informed the Porte that they could not it
that their respective governments would support
the first Turkish proposal relative to the Greek boun
dairy, as it is not based upon the Treaty Of Berlin
later despatch says that the Council of Ministers
has now elaborated and despatched to Moukhtar
Pacha. the Turkish Boundary Commissioner, pro-
ject which it thinks, though not cedng all that tho
Greeks desire. will afford basis for negotiations
