A Reminiscence of Alboni.

Nine. Ziegler, better known by her
stage namo Marietta Alboni, lived to a
ripe age as the result of good care of her
self and plenty of exercise. She was a
great walker and made errands OF mercy
among the poor at a distance SO as to have
good excuse for her out of door life. She
was particularly fond of Rossini's music.
A few days before his death Rossini was
enduring intolerable suffering, which
nothing could assuage. Among the num-
Der of intimate friends who were near him
were Nine. Alboni and Director Vaucor-
bell of the Paris grand opera.
eff you We're to sing something it might
soothe him" said Alboni
M. Vaucorbeil Immediately sat down
at the piano and sang the part Of Assur to
the Arsace of Alboni. Immediately the
face of the master was illumined by ten
der smile, and 1t may be said that that was
the last musical sensation of Rossini.-
