The opera of sOliyette is likely to be the cause

fhat he Will produce it at the Park Theatre at the
close of Lawrence Barretts engagement. MesSs
Comfy and Barton, who ore at present playing IL
At the Biiou Opera House, say that Mr.. Dnts pro-
Nuction Of it will probably prove TO be an nlrlDge
1ent upon their rights, in which case they Will
take measures to stop his Representations. A

At be originals French version OF Ollvette' was
produced in Paris In November, 1879. 1t ran only
"a short time. and as am told, made only mode
rate impression. The music was pleasing, nut the
1ibretto was weak. The English adaptation was
made by H. b, Farnie, whose librettO was the foun-
dation of its popularity in London. The American
right TO his version was in the hands OF X. DOyIey
Carte from whom we purchased III. L aiu con-
Vinced that without FaTnes libretto or one lmltat

sOliyette' and speaks Of 1t aSthe relgnlnR London
success OF course the present London opera is not
the French version. He claims that anyone can

to- do the London success fear he may he gong 10

TRIBUNE reporter, who met him the other day at

my visit To America has beea necessarily 80 bur-

any positive opinions as to what | have seen, But
If nv impressions are worth anything can unhosi-
tetinRly say that they are most agreeable. Although
the iIcIcmency of the weather has prevented me
from visiting California, the experiences of travel
ing from Niagara to New Orleans have displayed to
me the general courtesy and kindness Of the Ameri
can people toward ali travellers. have been much
struck by the general diffusion of koowl-
edge and education. This is shown par
ticularly by the fact that wherever yen
GO YOU arc certain TO hear English correctly
spoken which is notably not the case 10 some Of the
