The troupe is rapidly getting into its place, and is now beginning togbe heard at its best. It was hardly to ba expected that it could deliver ifself of very effective work during its first week, or even the second, for it takes time, after the long summer vacation, which artists aro much more apt to spend in pleasure thanin etudy, to get into ruoning order and bave oporas move smoothly and effective- Iy. Tho prosent scason is, after sl, but & grand dress-rchearsal for the winter; but tho rehearsal promises well. The troupe is strovger in its ~combination than it appears to be, which s very clearly shown by tho fact that its best succesees have been in tho operas requiring genuin work, such s “ Lucia,” “Marriago of Figaro,” ard “Don Giovauni.” Take ** Don Giovanpi,” for instancé. A troupo which can do this well can do anythiog well in time, and “Don Giovanni” Las néver bad euch » finished and smooth performance as this troupe bas given it. It was o revelation even to the old opera-goers, who bad begun to de- epair of over hearing their favarite work done as 1t should be. We look forward, thereforo, with confidence in the workings of the trouge, in which Miss Keilogg Las so much at stake. The menagement 8 isbcring bera acd £o are the artists, and all concerned have had more obstacles in_their way than tho public can appiociate—tho ob facies which are always in the way at the beginning of a season. One by one, however, thege aire belng removed, and improvement is shown almost night by night. The repertoirs for the present week is a very strong one. On Monday evening “Trovatore” will be given, with Miss Kellogg as Leonora ; on Tnesduy ovening “ Maritana,” with Vao Zsndt iu the title role; on Wedresday evening ** Don Giovanui,” for the benefit of the Haknemann Hospital Fair, which promises to bo the gala nigit of the season. Thureday night the house will be closed in order ta sccure a full dress ro- hesreal for ** Alienen,” which will be given on Friday evening for the first time in this conntry in Euglish. Tne same operz will be repeated Saturaey ovening. The matinee programiue has not yet veen detinitely outlived, butit willbe o very attractive onme. With such zn_enjoyable repertoire as this thero is littlo doubt of & suc- *cessful closs to the season. ltis & troupe which spocially deserves the enconzagement and syi- pathy of Chicago opera-goers. Its manager, Afy. Hess, belongs o us, In past times bo bas taken a high position here, and amd all the fluctuntions of :heamusement businees, whether on the dramatic or tne lyric stage, he has main- taived s high standard. “The public hasnever sui- flered at s bands, aithough he has suffered some- times at the Lends of the public. His conscien- tious endeavor, however, to placo Engtish opera upon & _substantial basis deeerves a hearty recognition. Oue of the most pleassnt features of this week will be the Weduesday uight performance. Mre. C. B. Washburn, who is devotizg her time and experience to the forthcoming Hahnemann Hospital Faur, bas efected an arrangement with {he managemeat by which they will givo the procecds of that evening's peiformanca to_the benefis of this fair. The opera elected is ** Don Giovanny,” which was givon in such splendid riyle Jast weok. As it will introduce nearly all thie prominent artiets of the tioupe, it promises to be a truly gala occasion. The charity which is the beneficjary of tuis performanceis of the most deserving in the wholo city, and tho thea- tre ought 10 be crowded from gallery to par- quette on this occasion. 3085 KELLOGG'S * MARGUERITE.” We give placs to the following conmunication from a Kelloggite in answer to a commuunication which appesred in last Suaday's TRIDUNE, and add our own hearty indorsewent of the writer's position Tothe Editor of The Chirago Trituna Br: Those who werd fortunate enough to witness 3tits Kellogg'a persoustion of Goethe's immortal hero- inoc on Weduesday evening, enjosed one of the most ardriic representations of thiat chiracter ever present~ iin this ¢ity. To thoss who have watched hor ca- reer trom Ler firat entrance upon the operatic stage, it gave = rare pleasure to sco Low, a auperb singey al- waye, she hes ot Jast geined euckl breadth of concep- tion aa to the dramatic requiremeats of Ler characters, and such fervor of expression, that she can giveus a icture of Marguerite that, for tho expressiou of what st slways remain the true 1deal of this character, is at lezat the peer of any we Lave yet soet. ‘It was in no scnee n copy. It bore, in every part, the evidence of carefal sud_conscientious individual study of the story in which Marguerite is the central sfigure, and was fuli of & subtle apprecistion of the part that she pleys in the seddest, ue well ws ome of the most human, pictures, of Lifeever drawn. From ler very first en(rance upon tho stage, when she moves in- to the crowd * with downeast eyes and modest grace,” it was evident that she vns Gocthe’s own heroine, and that heridea of the charscter was tho trus ome, Tt i3 not poasivle to suppose Marguente = women with any Listory back of her. All & unknown and strange to ber, and tbe greeting of Faust, axd the impression he ‘makes upon her, are received into Ler heart 8 an in- itial exyerfonce. It 15 all a yague wonderment. Thero 1s no coquetrs, for she does not know what that means. There is no immediats rapture at his tmmistzkable ad- oration, for Ler life Lns herctofore included 1o such Cxyerience. She cxly fecls her heart stirred with new, sweat fecling slio does not understand _and does Dot iry tosnalyze. Tue first thoughts to which ehe gives utteranco are ouly the ¢xpresaion of & natural childish wopder ae to who Le is, what is his name, sad whether hs 18 of noble Lirth. Kothiag seems Aner in the wholo field of dramatic exprossion thun the ezquisite mazner in which Kellogg portruys the developrment of her love for Fawat, In Der conception of Marguenie this love is esrentially s growth.—a vogue, shzdowy dawning, sirengtheuing gradusily mto tle full light of £n overmastering pas- sion,—whose various stages she docs not berself un- derstand, - She finds herveif all at once wanderiug into 2 new fiejd,—timid, doutting, fearful, with a certain awe at Ler rapidiy widening experience, but drawn on Dy the sweet 1rrisistiblencss of the woolng of Fausl, until this love gradually abeoros Ler whole nature. Low tenderly 2nd purely Kellogg reaches the climax in the duet with raust, held back all the while by a Dawrel maidenly rescrve, but urged forward at the kame time by 3 still ptronger influence, until she final- Iy throws bersclf into his arms in the most perfect celf-surrender ! This ome picture must forever put Keliogz in the foreground among the great artists of the world,—it is 50 consistent, 80 human, 50 perfect in dramatic inish, £0 tenderly ad beautifully true to the 1deal of the character. ‘The sceno atfthe churchia snother classic picture severeia fia elmplicity—ainost 100 siwple, wera this et the greater st {0 bring into 3 stronger relief before the audience. the one thouglit of the woman, wronged through what a3 Lest aud swectest in her nature, seck- ing redef in the consoling shelter of the Church,only to Le driven into s deeper despair by the mocking voice of dephisto, In the pricon Ecene ibere was no faltering in her conception of the character, and she rose to the fullest dramstic needs of the situation, Can anything be more cseentially pathetic than her interviev with Ler lovar, tlre well-remembered tones of whose voice almost dis- pelled thie arknoas that had clouded her mind, driv- ing Lerinto tho * depths of zome divine despair 17 The pathios was 80 rexl4liat even tho proverbial coid- ncss of our sudionces was thawed for once, at least, into a spontancous burst of applause.

Tho event .Eu created unusual interest in our musical circles, a8 Ars. Watson is s pianist of oxtraordi- pary ability and a lady of the highest culture. Her musical education was obtaiued under the tuition of Tausig, and one of tha best indications of her proficiency is the fact that sho played with the Thomas orchostra at its récent concerta in Grand Rapids. We are glad to know thers is & prob- ablity she may come bete to reside. PARLOE CONCERT.

The American, of that city, says: 'he suthor 1s the masical director of the Oates Troupe, audisone of the tvo or three who have endeavored to build up, from the foundation of the French opera-bouffs, a parely original English structure. AMr. Williams has writzen more of & lyric comedy than anything else. It has s well-sustaived aud plausible plot, and the incidents are grompod and developed witu a great geal of dramatic skill. The music is smooth throughbout, aud ocessionally rises to the level of excetlence.” THE NEW AMERICAN PRIMA-DONYA. Tc will be rememberod that we printed somo daza ago & most gushing dispatch from New York relative to the dobut of Vialatta Colrillo, at the benefit of the Mark Smith family. Since that time the mail brings us the press opinions from that eity. From these we select the oniy ones which are worth baving or can be relied upon, as follows: From the New Torl: Ecening Torf. Miss Colville received her musicl education pastly in France, parlly in Germiuy, and afterwards in Ttaly; and lio mude her Orst appearance at Savona, on tlio 24th of August, 1872, as duina, in * Elisir d'Amore.* She proved yesterday that sho is worthy of wiser trestment than shie Las aiready recerved from the handa of admirers and relatives, Iler first efforta were made the subjecta of extravagsnt psnegyrics, and sho_had selecied for ber first appeutuiice & churacter made familiar_in past years by uearly every great so- preno the lyric stage haes known, and one in which Nilaeon, Di Murska, xnd Kellogg had sppezred within lens thin six montha.

WAGNELRIANA. Interesting particnlars as to the progress of Wagner's great Bayrouth enterrise appear from time to time iu the Germsn musical papers. A recent number of the Signale says thet the com- roser bas nearly finished tho instrumentation of the last ct of the *Gotterdammerung,” the conoluding Eicce of tetralogy, and that the closs of this work is * tho most colossal thing that the genius of the master has ever produced.” Offers oi _singess and players como in_from all sides. Wagner wishes to have all his singors tall, as having to represent chiefly gods and heroes, and thus far, it is eaid, he "bas beeu very successful. His Sicgfried (Herr Glatz) and DBrunnhilde (Fran Materna), aro both of imposing stature. ¥or the two giants Fasoll and Fafner, after long search two singers of enormous height have been found, who, how- ever. aro both lean and will bave to bo padded. In Bayreuth, where 1t is well Enown that Wag- ner requires only tall singers, it has passed into a saying, if atall man pasees along tae street, “1ipere goes a Nibelung!” ‘The full orchestral ecora of * Die Watkure,” the gecond part of the work, has just been published by Measra. Schott, of Mainz. A Mr. Alfred Forman baa translated tho wholo of tho drama * Der Ring der Nibe- lungen” into Englisb, and three of the four parce (“ Rheingold,” ** Die Walkuro,” and *Sieg- fried ") havo bean-printed for private circulstion in London. ATSICAL NOTES. Frezzolina is einging in tho cafes of Venice. Herr Pape, who, after Mr. Lazarus, was tho best clarionet player in England, died lnst month. M.

The strang- ors have left us and returned to their bomes in the country, carrying with them pleagant recol- lections of happy -hours spent with Rip Van Winkle and the Leroes of other dramss which wero presented with & special view to their en- tertainment. They have not seen * The Man O" Airlie,” for which they should be sorry, bat their city relatives must make the same admission. The former, however, were allowed no oppor- tunity, and the lattor were. Tho abssuce of transient sojourners in the city is quite apparent to anybody who has studied the appoar- ance of audiences babitually, and almost knows the metropolitans by hearf. However, city or country people, they all act alilo. The baid headed men talk in the theatro; those who bear the patent mark of the third-class refaii- stores, the bar-room, and the livery-stable, amuse themselves at the expense of others, - according £o their varions tastes and previous conditions, ‘The homely and ili-bred women rise_from their seats beforo the curtain bos descended on_the last act, a8 usual, and deport themselves in a manner atterly unhke that of gennine ladies.

As yet, howover, they sre reticont, and nothing dofimte can be learned, except that they have determined upon inaugurating, in connection with the manage- Tment of their Star Course, some novel features which they have hsd under contemplation and study for the past two seasons, and which, when adopted and announced, are expected to 50 rec- ommend their season or course tickata to amnse- ment-seekers that their “ Star” entorfainments will b mors popular and more largely attended than ever before.

The tree is an oak, and stauds on the west side of Lo road leading from Charleston to Shepherdstown, and about” 10 miles from the Iatter place. dho story, as it goes bere, and which is believed to be a true one, is as follows: During tho War an officer of the Federal army, who had caarge of a lerge sum of money, & Quartermaster or Paymaster, buried the 40,000 beneath the tree, doing so either from fear of its falling into the hands of the Coufederates, or it may have been to gecure it for humself. 1f tho latier, ho succeeded, 1f we crediz what fotlows, which is told by pxities who saw the evideaces of the facts and heard the stors from the party when ho returned to take away the buricd treasure. 5 5 2 The party, whose namo is not given, of, if he gave one, was au assumed name, was tried 3 year or two after the War for the embezzlement of Government monoy—ths samo money ho had buried under tha oak in Jefflerson County—was convicted of the chargo and eentenced th serva % term of yeara in tha Albany Penitentiary. This he did, and the Jaw was satistied, for he de- clined to give anyclew to the whereabouts of the monay.
