‘Theatrical and Masical. Baeapwar Tuxatax.—The rehearsals of the opera o Ernani,’ whieh took place on Saturday evening and Jest night, and at which we were present, have been highly satisfactory to us, Signornia Tedesco looks pret- tier than ever, and she warbled her part most admi- rably, although fn mezzo voce. No doubt she will be yery successful in her part of Elvira, which was her Serie diese pec the Spanish andi bend hich oa a. sings con animo; and Stee acta eo of thetovers of Italian music, will make another great bit‘in his former rdle of “Don Carlo.” His splendid ew by has mented abie general. In short, we have no doubt wees ise of Mr. Marshall will be crowned wich full succers, fhe company of the Mouplaisirs, which ia added to the opera, will give a variety to the enter- teinments, and their ball Lv which ia formed this pine is excellent, and the dances in the cele! Zingarilla,” are very pretty. Such anarray of talent must draw full houses, Even in pi ee the grand theatre of Tuco, no svinée bas witnessed an opera and @ bailet ther, We are therefore better favored than the Habaneros. think the Italians and French will meet with great suc- ‘eess, who, leaving aside their national feelings, have united together to give us an entertainmenf worthy of notice. B Ninio’s Ganoen.—This evening the entertainments will open with @ grand overture by the orchestra, after which, the elegant achievements on the tight-repe will be executed by the Revel family and Leon Javelli. The whole to conclude with the grand ballet pante- mime which bas been in preparation two months, with Rew seenery, new dresses, new properties, new tricks and transformations, original music, new machinery, in two acts, as represented at the Grand Opera and the Academy of Music at Paris. The piece has been Na tem by Messrs. St George and Mazilier ; music, Mesers Benoit and Reber, called, *Urielle, ‘or Le Diable Amoreaux” It will be produced under the direction of Mons. Paul brillant, ballet master of the Ravel fa- mily. Paul Brillant (his frst appearance ia America) will do the part of Count Frederick; Mr Jerome Ravel, that of Hortensius, tutor to the Count; Mr, Antoin Revel, that of Lord Beauclerc ; and Mr. Francois Ra de Dews dy Mr. Paul Briliiact and Mad ine Bertin, and « ecepa and Pas de Fascination me tame Jady and Francois Ravel. It is utterly coed ble that a series of such splendid attractions, which remind us of the palmiest days of Niblo’s former estab- Hisbment. can fail of drawing a numerous and fashion- @ble audience. We predict that there will be a erowd- ed boure. Bunt Theater —The charming manner in which “As You Like It” was performed last week at this house, was so satisfactory to those who witnessed it, ‘that the desire to see it pleyed again, with the same ex- eclient cast, is very general; secordingly Manager Burton, who is always ready to gratify the public taste ‘$ things theatrien|. has concluded to produce it again this evening, and those who wish to sce it played in the perfect style, cannot do better than to visit the os ‘on this occasion, Not the least attractive fea- ture in the getting atyle in whish the, Leach, Miss Hiffert, &e. w farce of “Keeping the Line,” in . Mise Taylor, ‘Ke. appear, will conclude the evening's amusements. Narionat Tuxzarne.—There is but little to say now- a-days regarding (his house, so continuous is the po- pulerity which it enjoys, and so excellent are all the entertainments ret forth. During these piping hot days of August, ght and witty dramatic performances -are the ones suited te audiences, and these the mans_ ger gives with great success. Everything novel in theatrical literature is immediately produced by him. end juced in most dsome style.

D. Rice, the great original and unap- preachable Jim Crow? The house, no doubt, will be ‘well filled. Cusisty’s Mixernets will this evening commence @ series of newly arranged concerts, in which al! their newest and most popular Ei tbiopien music will be in- troduced. besides apy quantity of original conundrums, witty saylugs, Kc ‘The * Voyage Musical,” and all its ities will also be performed, Without doubt, they one of their usual good houses. pera’ Mad Lo Miss C, Hiffert and Miss J.

They looked oa ody of the woman, who lay stretched on the ground, with blood on her face, and they concluded she was dead. They hastened up stairs to arrest the husband, Charles Highfield, « tailor. They found the door se- a them. and the man desperate. They had to it open with a pickaxe, when Highfield appear- ed before them with a long knife. with which he made weveral stabs at See, who, however, succeeded in taking him into custody. ‘He still continued violent, till another officer arriving, he ~“ 80 secured that he ould do no further to himself or others. — Meantime the condition of the woman was looked after, when it was found that, with the exception of aseratch en her face, she hed no other wound, butehe was Blind drunk, and this was the cause of the present row, as it has been of many a similar one before.

Sunday, August I2—6 P.M. The stock market closed yesterday heavy—very hva- vy; and we have not noticed for a long time, such a dull, depressed state of things in Wall street, Money is plenty enough—in fact it, isa drug—and loans are casi- any speculation, and no one appears to have nerve enough to purchase any of the fancy stocks on the market. There has not been atime within the past five years, when there was so little speculative feeling afloat, or such « universal anxiety to get rid of stocks that in reality possess no value. The revolution ia the public mind, in this particuler, has been thorough and complete, and there appears to be no possible ebence of a reaction. Capitalists prefer investments of a safe, substantial and productive character; and even those who have heretofore speculated moderately | in [the fancies, have found it was all outlay and no income, and now are better contented with the five | dollars in hand than ten dollars in the perspec- | tive. Faney stock speculations are so delusive, | and thousands have suffered so severely by be- coming involved in them, that the spirit has disap- peared, and we no longer see the periodical excite- | ments which have, in years past, turned Wall street | upside down. Those whe have capital to invest are no longer disposed to run a great risk for the chanses of | making @ great profit. The probability of losing al large per cent of the capital isso much greater than thet of making anything on the investmont, that few | can now be found with nerve enough to take the risk. The immense amount of idle capital on deposit in our banks, is sufficient evidence of the little confidence en- tertained by moneyed men in stock securities generally, So far as good stocks are concerned, the impression is that they are too high; and softer asthe fancies are concerned, the belief has become universal that they | are utterly and hopelessly worthless, and that a man has just about as much chance of making a fortune by placing his money on a roulette table us in pur- | chasing fancy stocks. Fortunes have been lost in the yawning gulf of railroad speculations; | and before people get thelr eyes open, ruin will overtake thousands upon thousands. Take the list of fancy stocks, and if a true and correct statement could be obtained of the fimancial affairs and condition of | each, there would be such an exhibit of rottenuess and | corruption as would startle and astonish the world It would alarm those who have for years held large amounts of such trash, and make them wonder that they have not long since been ruined. A large operator | remarked to us lately, that when he looked back and | saw what large quantities of these worthless stocks he ‘used to hold, month after month, he is astouished that he has net been long since swamped. There are hun- dreds who no doubt feel that they ave, without any | foresight om their part, escaped in the same way. Railroad stocks have been annually getting worse and worse, Those connected with thiscity, were inu mach | better condition five years ago, when they were only | | about half the present length, and cost about a quarter | part of the money, The receipts, in proportion, were much larger, and the expenses much smaller.—_ In the absence of large contracts for construction | there were fewer opportunities for the directors to ewindle the stockholders; and so far as the value of the stocks was concerned, they were really worth much more, in the early stages of these works, than at pre- sent, As these roads have been extended, their capi- | tals have increased immensely, and « half a dozen sets | of directors have made fortunes out of each. Instances have been known of members, of different companies purchasing land upon a proposed change of route, sole” ly for the purpose of selling the right of way and depot room, and‘have made large sums by such operations. As for railroad iron contracts, contracts for furnfshing locomotives and cars, agencies for negotiating loaus, and a doven other items, where money eould be made, itis well known they have been monopolized by the direction, et prices fixed by themeelves. All we want for the protection of the public, is am exposée of these things, and our whole aim is to obtain it. There is only one way, and that {s through the legislature. — The stockholders are powerless. A new board of direc” tors would be just as bad as the old; for ifthey wore large stockholders, they would patch up and doctor their reports so as not to depreciate the market value of their own property, and then sell out as soon as pos- sible. Asaninstence of railroad mismanagement, on « small scale, for private purposes—for the sole object of depreciating the market value of stock, that a few individuals might step in and seize the spolls—we have only to point to the Long Island Railroad Company.— It is, perbape, only known to a certain few in Wall street, that individuals in this company, who were a few months einee large stockholders, have not only rold out every sharo, but have sold themselves largely, im short, and efforts are now being made by the sam, — parties to render the stock, if possible, more worthless than it ever has been, not only for the purpose of pur- | chasing at low prices to deliver on their contracts, but for the purpose of issuing @ proferred stock, to the amount of the debt, that will absorb every fraction of | the net earnings of the company. With a view of erent- ing th’s preferred stock, theee parties have been for some time past buying up the bonds of the at a heavy depreciation, for the purpose of ex them ter this guaranty stock, at par; and there is no doubt but that they will accomplish the object aimed at, When we see sugh thi when men publicly and openly operate inthe market with such an object in view—it is no wonder that the public have little confi | dence in railroad managers, and are rapidly losing | what little they have. After the management of this company baye consummated this act, the old stock will not be worth a rush, for it will be in the power of the directors to fix euch a rate of dividend—as in the eae of the Harlem company—as will completely use up the net earnings of the road for all time. Such is ¢! character ot the men who are entrusted with the pro- | perty of thousands of stockholders, who blindly confide | in their honesty and integrity, dream of dividends, and live on hope deferred, until the heart becomes sick. The receipts of the Long Island Railroad company have deen much less thie year than last, and the road is ina deplorable condition. | ‘The annexed statement exhibits the quotations for stocks in this market, for each day of the past week, ¥, and at the close of the week previous It will be per~ ceived that throughout there has been a decline in every description, and that some of the fancies have deen inactive — E> = Sige tariSey 118311 SReletii 2 ee < | eeresr ez 2 = et ese # se wy mK A comparison of ‘priees current yerterday with those ruling at the clove of the previous week, exhibits a de. line in U. 8. 1868, of % per cent, Pennsylvania 6's ‘a, Reading Mortgage bonds 1\, Reading Raliroad 2M, Erie Railroad 1, Harlem 1),, Long Island 14, Farmers’ Loan 24, Canton Company 2\. and New Haven Rall- ‘The value of dry goods imported into this port, the amount withdrawn from and entered for warehouse eek ending the 9th instant, were asannexed — tor Formas Goons.

Coming from the sugar State of Louisiana, we may expect General Fayler to be established in favor of a reasonable protection ; but umes have changed since the bill of 42 was repealed, and free trade has been gathering strength ever einer. ‘There is still a large company at Cape May, but, being nearly all Philedelphians, there isa monotony in the ‘d, to a stranger, which is almost equal to being in Philadelphia itself. But the cholera has kept off the “ outside barbarians,” much to the re- gret even of the Quakers; but the preparations for the next summer will be ona grand scale, as we understand that M’Kenzie, the popular host of the Philadelphia Columbia House, will probably take a hend in the establishment of a new hotel at thie Cape.
