Last night, after a day of storm and rain incessant, there was present at the Opera house one of the most elegent and truly discriminating audiences ever seen within its walls, The amphitheatre was crowded, and the large array of beauty, taste, wit and intelli- gence, in the parquette and lower circles, added to the brilliancy of the scene, Before the audience entered the house, it was announced to those who arrived at the doors, that the performance of ‘Lucia di Lammer- moor” must be suspended, in consejuencs of the indis- poeition of one of the vocalists. It was enough, how- ever, to tempt every person of taste to enter, when it was added that Parodi would sing in the Opera of “Lueresia Borgia’’—one act of which only had been stipulated for in the bills of the evening. The hour having arrived for the rising of the cur- tain, thet amiable and industrious artist, Max Ma- retzeX, appeared before it, and ennounced bis sincere regret that he was obliged to change the performance, and steted that his only reliance was upon his com- pany and Parodt. The magic of that name had ite effect. Applause followed upon applause, it was evident that the public were more gratified to enjoy a certainty than an uncertainty, The opera, in due time, commenced, Meretzek being received as he en- tered the orchestra with the spomtaneous plaudits of those present, who readily appreciated the severe re- grets he felt,at his inability to control the dispositions and indispositions of others. The opening chorus was well received, Patti, and Lerini being welcomed on tSeir entrance upon the scene. When Parodi appeared, however, a tempest of approbation shook the building, and the audience them lulled intoe calm of rerene confidence, in the presence ofthe ruling star of the night. The caratina broke upon the etill- nest, hushed to breathlers silence, like some melody sages were poured out in a volume of delicious tones, which Paro- Gi’s voice alone bas the power of modulating s0 as to take the ear prisoner, and to captivate all the senses, the whole audience became willing and passive instru- wmentsin the power of the majestic artiste. Lorini, who sang with rare pradence, subjagating his power- ful tones witbin the bounds of expression, told the story cf Gennaro’s origin with @ tasteful delicacy of feeling that added to the effect of the scene—and the whole contrasted, like sunlight against storm and darkness, with the subsejuent tempestuous attack of the enemies of Lucrezia, as they confronted her masked majesty with the terrible recital of ber awful crim Hedged and hemmed in by those who bated her, in that first scene, Parodi arore, both in lyric and dramatic grandeur, tothe very height of the sublime.and the tor- Tent ofvocal despair poured from her unsw rand melody, in alter step, since the President made his republican speech. Where there is little honesty among po- litieal leaders, there is always a superflux of suspi- cion. Louis Napoleon is announced to be insin- cere. Itis broadly aseerted that he was opposed to such a message—that he was in favor of bend- ing his head toward the imperial laurel—and that he has not abandoned any of those ambitious views which have marked him during the year past This may be trne ; but still the mind of Louis Na- poleon is sufficiently expanded, to know that, in the course he has adopted, he has made himself more popular and secure than he ever could be at the head of an empire. However, one year more will be sufficient to decide a great question with respect to the sincerity of Louis Napolean, and, also, the sincerity of France herself. , From California, the news is not very important. The amount of gold pouring in upen us is a grati- fying proof that the bold adventurers on the Pa- cific are building up a great State—the results of which must continue to affect, for a long time, the commerce of the world. The inhabitants have re- ceived with joy the tidings of the State’s adinission nto the Union—and we may anticipate nowa more stable government and vast improvements in the work of civilization in that new country. We regret to perceive that a distressing casualty has occurred to one of the steamboats at San Francisco, by which many valuable flives were lost, and many persons wounded. Considerable apprehension will be felt for the safety of friends, till further details have been published.

It is therefore | very desirable that these prices current should be made up with the greatest care, to avoid mislead- ing those whose enterprise leads them to risk their means inthe California trade. The large houses have their private correspondents, who will keep them advised by private communications of every change in the market. Bat there are hundreds of naller dealers who are willing to venture their means in the trade, but who have not the advan- tage of a regular personal correspondence. To these persons it is a matter of the first importance that the quotations should be published correctly in the newspapers mae up for the mails hither. We are led to these remarks by comparing the cavil, as the first lytic artiet into an attitude of intense ra, trices current of the California Cowrier and the | concealed the Borgia was torn from her face, and lta C ia, which v materially i fell upon the ground, the grand embodiment of the Alia California, which vary so materially in many Geapale amd remotes ef ork ae cena at ae particulars that we are et a loss to know what to give as the really current prices. We annexa few semple quotations to show the difference in the market reports of the different papers bearing the same date :— ’ Colifor nia Pri- ces Current, Oct. Slet. Such a triumph a ‘not past rewarded. Parodi wes called forward to receive the acclametions of audience—never known to be more sircere or more deservedly earned. In the second Beneventano, asthe Duke, with bis noble voico and musical precition, came for- ward with more then usual earuestmess and power, tinging with great expression, and introducing us to the story of the second, or poisoning scene, where he, berini, and Parodi have that great trio so celebrated’ in lyric annals. It was en- cored, and the repetition was as brilliant as the first essay. In the scene, however, Parodi enlisted all sym- pathies, Lucrezia’s tale of Gennaro’s absence—her studious anxiety for Gennaro’s safety— the earnest ap- peals made to the Duke for Gennaro’s lite —the attempt to releare Lim—the trembling of her hand as she poured out the poison—her imprecation and despair— and then that sudden burst of joy when the Duke leaves the apartment. and she finds the antidote that can save Gennaro’s life—all these, with the lights and shades of emetion, contained in their correct expres- sion, were depicted by the voice, the manner and the iind shining through the face.and by the agitation of every muscle, by an artistical perfection to whieh our midnight memory can no more than teintly allude. When Parodi rushed forward with Gennaro, im- — him te take the remedy supplied by her ands, a thoerand tumultuous ions seemed to bei mstinet with life in every lineament of her face—in every motion of her frame.
