It would have been more judicious to give the of the weak singer to Benedetti, or of the female to Steffanone, Tey would have been fer better matched.

Benedetti sang a ro- maze from Mercadante, and was applauded in advaace by the clogveur He got onvery well in the lower notes, but his execution upon the upper nctes was hareh, grat- | ing and strained; yet he was not only applauded,but uctu- silly called out. Many ct the audience laughed at the joke, Bettini only sung twice, while Badiali sang three times. The first time both sung was ina duet from “ Bellisa- rio.” It was excellent, and they were applauded, but not half so well as Benedetti, Bettini next sang the solo, “Spirito Gentil,” from “Favorita,” in beautiful style, aad was warmly gery by the audience not by the cla- queurs. Badial’, beside the two duets we have mentioned, fang a romanza from Donizetti, with exellent judg- ment. It displayed, to advantage, the great volume of his voice. He was applauded im advance, which pro- yoked some hissing, and he was also applauded most Pereeveringly at the end.

This was a beautifal 4 formance, and the audience were enzaptured with it. Miska Hauser is highly artistic and brilliant, but he lacks expression force, in which points he is iaferior to Burke. The greatest and rarest treat of all was the exquisite music of Alfred Jaell himself, who evideatly took the audience by surprise. He is an extremely small, unpretending, pale faced man. Such execution upon @ piancforte was never witnersed in this city. ‘e did not believe that so much could be done with thet instrument. The performer did all but make it speak.
