AMY GORDON AT ENGLIsH's opERA-HoUsE

AMY GORDON AT ENGLIsHs oPERA-HOUsE.
Last night good house greeted the singers of
the Amy Gordon Opera Company. At the fling
in of the orchestra an announcement was made
from the stage that 'Fatinitzan would be sub
stituted instead of ERA Diavolo" on account of
the sickness of Miss Gordon. The company is
fair and, if comparisons are not invidious, about
equal 90 Eilbur's upon their last engagement.
| There is small chorus and principals of m
known reputation, outside of Miss Gordon and
Mr. Morgan. Miss Gordon was suffering from a
cold, but she possesses voice that is rich and
full, and her upper register is clear and power
full. Mr. Morgan possesses a light tenor voice
and an easy stage presence, and played the role
acceptably, and Mr.. w. p Brown made fair
Kantsakoff. Miss Crockett, as the Princess,
sang only passably. The rest of the cast were
but mediocre The costumes however were
good, and several numbers were nicely rem
dered The engagement is for week, and to-
morrow night 'Girofe- Girofa" will be presented.
