Wallack's will shut up om next, and the short season at the Metropolitan will clove with the present week, The season has not generally been so profitable as that which preceded it. During the firet three memths there were too many theatres open, and Grisi and Mario took away a great deal of money from the people who patronise public amusements; after which the “hard timsa’’ made it bard work for several of the managers to make their nightly expenses. For the next seasom there will be mapy changese in the companies, and renewed activity smong the managers. At the Acapxy or Musio the La Grange troupe gave “Ernani’’ and “The Barber of Seville” twice last week to good houses, and ‘Tl Puritani”’ is sunounsed for to-night. Mme. de la Grange is the Kivira; Signer Mirate, the Ar turo; Signor Marini, Sir George Wa'tom; and Signor Mo. relli, Sir Richard Firth. As the opera is a very popular one, and as the four great artists are included in the cnat, it is safe to predict a full and brilliant audience at the Academy to-night. At Ninzo’s Ganvn the English opera is doing well. “Fra Diavolo’’ is announced for this evening, with Miss L Pyne as Zerlina, supported by Mr. Harrison, Mr.Hora- castle, Mise Pyne, Mr. Borrani, and others, At the Mrrrorouitan Tuzatee this evening, the first part of “King Henry IV.’ will be given, with Mr. Ha :k- ett as Sir Jobn Falstaff. Mr. Hackett will appear every evening this week, which is the last of the season. At Wautack’s Tazatas there were five performances Jast.week, andon Tuesday Mr. Wallack had benefit at the Academy, which, we hear, netted him the comferta- ble sum of $4,500. Mrs. Hoey had « benefit on Thars- (py, and wae greeted, as usual, with a full house. The sister of the beneficiary, Mme. Krollman, made her first appearance on this stage, singing a cavatina from “Linda,” and the Scotch ballad ‘John Anderson my Jo.’* Mme. Kroliman is ® very pleasing vooslist. On Saturday Mr. Moore, the treasurer of the theatre, hada benefit... This evening ‘‘ Wild Osta” and ‘‘ The New Foot- man’ will be presented, and to morrow night, (the last of the season,) is assigned for the benefit of Mr. Lester, when Colinan’s eomedy, ‘The Jealous Wife,” will bs played for the firsttime here. On dit, that Mrs. Barrow, (Julia Bennett,) is engaged here for next season. At the Broapway Taxarae the last performance of the season took place on Saturday, and was for the benefit of Signor La Manna, the leader of the orchestra, There was a good bill, but only « thin honse, Mr. F. 8. Chanfrau and Miss Al- bertine made their first appearance om the Broadway boards, in the farce called ‘‘The Widow's Victim.” Miss Albertine’s imitation of Mrs. Julia Dean Hayne was im- mense. Two acts of the “Bohemian Girl’’ wore played to introduce Miss Durand, a new American prims doana, Miss Durand is 9 young and handsome woman, bat she needs much more practice and schooling, both in acting and singing. Her. voice is « fall, fresh, clear mezzo soprano. The Misses Gougenheim had the best house of the week, at their joint benefit, on Wednesday last. Bugron’s TaEatRE closed for the season on Saturday night, with a benefit for Mr. George Holland, The house War crowded to excess; At the Bowgky Tara! this evening, the bill inclndes the drama called “The + Man,’’ a ballet dirertise- ment, and Jack ‘Sheppard.’ Mr. Macgregor’s benefit is announced for Wednesday. At Barnum’s Mverom, this afternoon and evening, ex- celient drematic selections are annouaced. At Woon's Minsrrgts, 478 Broadway, a good concert programme is up for to night, including ‘‘The Wander. ing Minstrel.” At Buox1ey’s, 589 Broadway, the ‘‘Two Pompeys” will be out to-night, and R.B, Buckley will ‘Crow out! Sbanghail”’ At Purnam’s, 663 Broadway, the burlesque on the +Baby Show,” with other good things, is announced this evening, for the benefit of Mr. A. Jones, professor of the banjo.

The brothers Moilenhauer, Jul. jien’s violinists, will give a duet for two violins, Shel- ton’s band, and a fall orchestra, led by J. Unger, will give some of Jullien’s music, including the Firemen’s Quadrille,’’ and all for twenty-five cents. The Orsna “ Belisario,’’ will be given at the Academy on the 2ist June, ‘The principal parts wi be sustained by Signor Rossetti, the new tenor; Signor Taffanelli, the Darritone, who has just returned from Mexico; Signorins Manzini, and Madame E. Siedenberg. A new English opera tronpe has recently been organ- ized, composed of Miss Rosalie A. Durand, prima donns; Mre. W. H. Reevel, secondo donna; Mr. W. H.

The dramatic novelty that we have to record is # piece pro- duced at the Odeon, with « certain amount of success, bearing the title of “Un Mauvais Riche,” It will be readily comprehended that this {ss version of the fifty different dramas which dramatic writers love to moralize for the benefit of the Paris public, and to wean them from an excessive love of Vargento. Of cours, we have ® poor but honest family, enjoying the full happiness of their poverty as # set off, and, of course, the maw- vais riche repents him of his wickedness, but re- tains his treasures, which he shares with the honest family by « marriage—voila towt—all the drams and a)l the theatrical news of Paris, except that the ever-fancinating Plessy will essay her biandishments on s Parwian public next month at the Francais, apd draw alternate smiles and teare even , MM.

Som is im a great state of anxiety for the result, as are the contumacious witnesses also. In the Marine Court several cases of great importance to the mercantile community will be dispossd of this term. Since its increased jurisdiction, we-find that suits, although small in amount, large in effect to the suitors, are brought in this court for the sake of obtaining a. speedy decision. In the last term, the court held, in the case against Lord, Brown and Marks, that the defeadant ‘Marks was a general partner, and consequently liabie for some $80,000 indebtedners of the firm.

The June term of the Court of General Sessions com. mences to-day before Recorder Smith, who will probably be relieved by Judge Stuart before the term expires. During the whole of the last term, Judge Stuart was confined to bis room with sickness, which left the entire labors of the session to Recorder Smith. The calendar for this month is an ordinary one. There are three murder canes that were set down for the last term, which were passed over, and wh ch will likely be reach- ed thid month.

In your issue of Friday, under the telegraphic head, and dated Washington, the correspondent says :—‘' Mr, Phillips, Col.
