factory one to both manager and public.
The receipts have been large, and the man.
ner in which the operas have been cast
dressed and mounted, has been highly
gratifying to the audiences We regret
that the management have chosen 70 give
us only familiar operas instead of the
fresher ones embraced in the repertoire of
the Company. Had it been decided to
give us LINDA" "La File de Regiment"
and "Dinorah" in place of three OF those
formerly mentioned, the season would
have been much more pronounced sue
cess. 1t is not necessary for us to review the
work of the opera season fuller than was
done after the presentation of each opera.
The best works of the week have been
"Sonnambula," Aida" and Lucia"
The season concludes with two perform
and between the third and fourth acts the
shadow dance scene by Mile. Marimon from
"Dinorah." This evening, at o'clock,
