The second weck of the opers bouffo season opened with & light house, which was undoubt- odly owing to the disagrecablo storm, as “La Poricholo™ is a favorite opora of this school, aund tho role of the street-singeris by far the best in Aimee's repertoire. Without so much of tho broadness and gaucherie which apportains to many of her other characters, there is, never- tholess, o piquancy and-zest, mixed with, now and then, o dash of mock pnthos, which make the character really an enjoyable one. By far the larger part of the werk is dialoguo, which is peculiarly distressing to tho.averago American trying to piok his way through the libretto, but such musical features s thore are, aro decidedly rollicking, and now and then a serious aria s in- troduced, which has all the more novelty by tho vory forco of contrast. In her wmake-up of tho charnoter, cspecinlly as to dress, Aimeo is po- culiarly ploturesquo and graceful, and both in tho sorious and ludicrous phbasps of it, sho is more consistent and truo to dramatic eiect than in any of her broad parts. Hor most, successful numbers wers tho couplots (**Le Conquorant Dit") with Piquillo E.m. tonu), which wero encored; tho sorious Lettor arie, bidding good bye to Piquillo, which is somowhat after tho * Ditoz-Lul ” fashion, nnd which scoms uttorly out of place in a work of this kind; tho Drunken Song (“Ahl quel Diner ") in which she gavo o vory clover imita- tion of incbrintion, uud one which would have Qiatrossod o cruendor, rosulting in o tumultuous oncora ; tho fluale to tho first act, to which uho brought ' ccnstaut cbullition of vi- vacity ond_ drollery; and tho fluale to tho second act, which s & very willing to talk to so few listners, so xmm{ ompty Lenches. It is snid Schurz, Lowover, is about the only man who can cluim tho attention of o full Sonato. Tlns gontloman still continued Mr. Frolinghuysou's poriods woro de~ livored with diguiticd compomuros but, it his speeoh was weighty, it cortainly wad not brilliang enough to enchain the attention of one whose timno for sight-ecing was limited. Toaviug tho High Sehool, wo went ovar to TI15 PUBLIO BUHOOL, with its largor but jollier crowd. Thero lowor- form boys had their dosks in groups of three for tho most part; and, as thoy probably found othior amusoment than ewapping jaol-knives, and had forgotten the procise ponstrative power of n bont pin, it could notmattor. Iean’t say that I think this brauch of tho State School was muoh botter kopt than tho others, It cortainly did not impress me a# boing tho place where our okioson Ropreseutatives makoe or brosk uuaccord- ing to their own swoot will.
