EMMA ABBOTT AS THE BOHEMIAN
GIRL. The st. Paul Pioneer Press
says Emma Abbott and her grand
English Opera company appeared at
the Opera House last night befo
densely packed audience. The opera
was Balfe's favorite and popular
work "The Bohemian Girl" the per-
formance ofwhich was faultless. The
audience was constantly wrought up
TO high pitch of enthusiasm. Ex-
cellent work-both vocally and dra-
matically-was done by every artist
in the cast. The chorus and orches-
ira, too, entered into the melodic
gems of the composition with heart
felt earnestness, making it tho best
and most perfect rendition of the
Bohemian Girl" ever witnessed in
st. Paul. Her singing last night of
the exquisite ballad II dreamt I
dwelt in marble halls" created fu-
rore, and Miss Abbott had most
fattering encore. Her introduction
of Sulivan's beautiful song in the
third act, "Love Me Once Again"
was sung with intense feeling, clear,
sad and sweet. The execution and
phrasing was perfect. The vast au
dience were visibly affected and the
applause was SO persistent that the
ballad was repeated. Signor Brignoli
will sing for the first time the role of
Thadeus, and Zelda Seguin will be the
"Gypsy Queen"
Mis- Abbott's Opera Company will
present "The Bohemian Girl" at the
Cumberland Academy of Music Mon
day evening next. An extra g. & P,
train will run, and reserved seats
may be obtained from Mr.. J. P. Wei
sci.

Without the passage of some new law,
by Congress, to aid him, Judge Rlves Will
find that he cannot carry out his theory OF
convicting state judges of Intentionally ex-
GLIDING negroes from the jury box merely
by inferring their motive from the contln-
ned absence of the negro therefrom. His
failure in the case Of Judge Griffin, OF
Roanoke. last week, illustrates it. The
accused Judge took the stand himself ano
testified, what almost any other Judge II
the State would doubtless say, that his feel
ings towards the colored people were klno
but he selected his juries in the county OF
the score of intelligence and there were ne
negroes in his county the equals OF th'
whites he did select. He was willing tt
give negro juries where they were asked
for by the parties being tried. The juicy
in Judge Grifin's case stood eleven for &C
ouittal to one for conviction. There was
no conviction and there will probably p'
none hereafter. The United States venlr'
it must be remembered are now drawn o!
an officer of the court with the aid OF
prominent Democrat and the jurymen az
not come so largely from one political par
ty as in former days, but from the IN
telligence of both parties.

fession and in the social life of the scho,-
ars her influence will be Invaluable. The

We learn that the announcement that

with the Institute is mistake, or at least
premature, though some negotiations look
