"FArsTr AT THE NArIoNAI--In its general
features the presentation OF "Faust" by the
National opera Co. last night was probably as
satisfactory an Operattc performance as has ever
been witnessed In Washington. There was a COM
peteneSS OF detail about IL peculiarly delightful
every auxiliary feature was beautifully and
harmoniously woven In so as TO make an integral
part OF the artistic whole, and from first TO last
the representation went forward with a smooth
ness and spirit very seldom seen In grand opera.
Mr.. Ludwig'S Mephistophefes was easily the most
merftorf0us work OF the evening. In appearance
and action he made a fascinatingly maiign and
Sardon1c devil and. OF course, sang the part
admirably. Miss Juch IS in appearance almost
the ideal Marguerite. Her conception OF the part
Is beautifully poetic. and she embodieS 1t with an
exquisite artistic simplicity and grace that leave
nothing to be desired. While her voice is
Dot great one, she renders the beautiful music
thoroughly well at all times and occasionally
reaches nights OF rare excellence eyoking from
her audience bursts OF enthusiastic applause Mr.
Mctiuckin made his first appearance here as Faust
and created highly favOrably impression. HIS
voice Is OF pleasing though uneven quality and
considerable power, and he uses 1t we'll His
plauded. and he and Miss Juch and Mr.. Ludwig
were repeatedly recalled. Mr. Stoddard made
good Tdlenfine, singing and acting with dramatic
vig0r. His death scene was particularly effective
Miss FabriS Was pleasing Sisbet. The ballets In
the first and fourth acts were as good as any that
have ever been witnessed here the ladies OF the
corps generally tnfuSing into their work spirit
fnfrequently seen In this operatic auxiliary. The
opera was beautifully mounted and the manage
desired. This evening Goldmarks great OPERA
THE Queen OF Sheba." Will be sung Tor the first
time In this City, with McJuckin, PerSOn Vetta
StOddard, Clara Poole and FabrtS In the cast.

John F. Talbot of Detroit, direc-
tor in the Pt. Huron Electric Railway
Co., visited Owosso last Friday, and
as a result the company of which he
is q member, has requested the city
council to grant franchise for the
construction, and operation OF an
electric railway in this city. A SIM
lar request will be made at Corunna,
the intention being to unite the two
places by an electric road. 1t is too
early TO say much regarding the pros
poets of the scheme being successful.
The ordinance limits the company
by requiring that the road shall be 10
operation before November Ist 1880.
1t is not impossible however, TO
have the road in operation this sea-
son, il the project is given reasonable
amount OF encouragement 10y the
council and citizens.
