Dramatic and Musical Matters. ‘The Opera season of Signor Moreili was not particularly ‘successful, for reasons already explained. The interest Gisplayed by the public in the represontaiions proved, ‘Botwithstanding, that the Opera is daily Increasing in pppu- larity. Apropos to this, we may saya word in ald of the movement now being made in Brooklyn for the eres- tion of a dirst class theatre and opers house in that city. ‘The only hati of any consequence in Brooklyn is tho Atheneum, which will seat, it is trae, a large audience, but only a minority can see or hear well. Brosklyn has Ahitherto depended upon the metropolis for its operatic and ‘theatrical entertainments; but nearly all the theatres are tow @ great distance from the ferries. Indeed, a Brook- ‘Aynite who goes to the Opera in New York cannot count ‘upon getting home much before oreakfast time. During this year a Philharmonic Society has been insagurated .wt Brooklyn with every prospect of success, and first class | ‘concerts are often quite as profitable ovor the wa'or a3 ia this city, With a population of one hundred and fifty thousand, Boston, supports three theatres and two great ‘music balls; while Brooklyn, with two hundred thousand people, as wealthy, as refined, an4 much more liberal and ‘progressive than the Bostonians, bas no theatre or music shall worth mentioning. If the Brootlyn property holders desire to improve the value of their estates taey will en- cdoavor to make the city as pleasant as possible; and there 8 bardly any doubt that if a first class theatre could bo erected and operatic and thoatrical performances of the ‘est order given, it would be well supported. Madame Cora de Wilboret gave her farewell con- cert at Niblo’s saloon en Thursday last, assisted by Mise Giilie, Bigaor Morelli, Signor Rivardi aud ‘There was a full and fashionable audience. ‘Madame de Wilhoret made quite a furore in the polacca from the ‘‘Puritani;’’ Signor Morelli obtained ap encore for the Largo al Fuctotum, and the origiual trio by Mr. Millet chad a great success. The concert was altogether the best since Thalberg’s, and quite a triumphant finale to the American career of Madame de Wilhorst, who will un- doubtedly renew her successes in Eirope, whither she -goes immediately. Madame d’Angri bas returned from hor Southers con- cert tour, and is now in Philadelphia. [t is rumored that the directors of the Academy are endeavoring to nego- tiate with her, as well as with Lagraoge, to sing at the Academy during next month. At the Philadelphia Academy the Opera, under Maretzek, 18 doing well. ‘ Masaniello’’ was the ‘atest novelty, Mr. W. H. Paine, late the direc- ‘tor of this company, sailed for Liverpool on Wednes- day’s steamer from Boston. Miss Louisa Pyne, ¥isg Busan Pyne and Mr. W. Harrison were passengers . by the same steamer. Inu the passenger list of the Arago, from this port for Havre next Saturday, we notice the wnames of Mme, de Wilhorst, M’lle Josephine Robert, pre- amicre danseuse at Niblo’s, and Signor Allegri, the scenic artist. Signor Atlegri returns to Zurope after a lengthened ‘residence in this city, where ho has painted a great deal of fine scenery, made a great deal of monoy and @ great may friends. ‘Tho dramatic events of tho weok have not boon start ling. The only pesitive novelly was the production at Wallack’s on Saturday of a transintion of M. de Prémary’s comedy, “ Les Droits de!’Hommo,”’ which will be remem- ered as having been performed by the Rachel comedians at the Metropolitan . theatre. The English vorsion at ” Walleck’s is by Mr. 0. 8. Leland, and was well received. ‘They have been having at Boston a great musical festt- ‘val, (three days), under the auspices of the Handel and \ Gaydn Society, The orchestra numbered seventy-cight, . and waa probably tbe best ever heard there. The chorus was equally flae, numerically and artistically, In the ‘Fimmap of yesterday there was an account, by & corres. +» Pendent, of the first day’s proceedings, and the same ‘writer gives the subjoined account of the second day :— ‘To-day (224) is the second of the great musical festival, + and either the improved state of weather,jor somo ~ equally po.ent influence, has produced a corresponding im- provement in the obrervance of the occasion. The house . The + oratorio, Mendolasohn’s “Enjah,”’ was given to an enthu- siastic sudievce, and almost every feature of tho successful manner in which the choruses and ~ » {mstrumental accompaniments ere performed. A gen- tleman who has been accustomed to hearing the con- Certs at the great Buglish festivals, as well as many iu this . ‘nd other countries, just remarked that he never heard a choir of balf the number (000), that exhibited evidences of such thorough training. The solo performers have ac- quitted themselves aamirably today. Mrs. Mozart, to whom the Boston critics bave almost unanimously given ‘the cola shoulder, or “ damnod with faint praise,” baa displayed @ voice and @ taleat that should not be allowed te rust unuied in a rural village like Boston. She is a care. ful aud correct singer, and combines @ perfect ease of manner with modesty and grace. Her excellent singing : aroured even the y vf a Boston audience several Umes. Miss A. Phillips, who also sang at y' "s afver- ‘noon concert, assisted in the oratorio and received merited rapturous encore. pson and Guilmette, bath of New York, are the principals in the male parts, the latter gentleman singing the music of Elijah so well as t» retain the attention of the audience through a long—and canless well sung—a tedious part. Having a little more lei- sure to-day, I bad an opportunity to investigate the ar- rangements for the festival, and ed some points emi- neatly Bostonian. One wasin the department of usher- dom. On the first day, when many for the first time in the Music Hall, not an was to be seen; but to-day, after every one bad hunted up his own _ woat, ‘and had relieved himself of the necessity of such ser- vice, behold, ushers are as plenty as blackberries, and yery much more noisy and more in the way. Tho aftor- boon concert commenced with Beethoven's symphonic, ’ No, 6,ia C minor, Wm. Mason, Mrs. Mozart and Miss Jenny Twicbell, (a very promising contralto, whoisshortly to depart for Europe,) Assisted. To-morrow is to be the last great day of the val, when we are to have the “Mes. ‘at which Miss Phillipa aud Dr, Guilmette will og duet, with a horn and yiolon cello obligato, composed by a young gentleman of New York, expressly for this occasion, Something of that sort wo suggested long a go to a Now York conductor. Will not Mr. Thalberg give usa really great musical festival at the Academy, next season? The entertainments offered at the theatres to-night will ‘be found aa interesting as usual. At the Broapwar Tuxatae “ Faustus commences the second week of its run. Mrs, L. W. Davenport, Madame Ponisi aod Mr. H. Loraine all appear in this play. The * managers also announce that they will introduce a new in- ‘vention to the notice of the public. It ts the application of clectricity to the lighting of gas burners, and by its means any tumber of burners may be ignited or extinguishod at the same polnt of time. In honor of the introduction of useful an invention the front of the theatre will be illa- 4 minated unis evening. At Bowron's Tasaree Mr. Jobn M. Hengler will casay the part o’ Hamiet. Mr. Hengler’s experiences here have heen in a different line, and bis début im the legitimate will doubtless attract attention, Mis# Julia Daly plays Ophe. ‘ia—ber firet appearance ip this theatre. At Laces Keewn’s Tumaree a new comedy, “ A Bird in the Hand worth Two In the Bush,’ and the successful trifle “Variety,” will be enacted this evening. Mise - Keone and Mr. Wheatleigh play in the first piece. At Wattack’s Taree Mr. Wallack will play Martin «Mey wood in “ The Rent Day,” sustained by all tho popular artists of this theatre, and the successful comedy, “The Rights of Man,’ will be acted for the second time. At Numo’s Gannoaw the Ravels will give three of their popular pantomimes, with other pleasant things peculiar to this house. At the Dowsny Timatre Mr, Chanfrau commences an on- grgemont this evening—playing Claude Melinotte and Clip {in © The Widow's Victim”). Mr. Chanfrau is an déve of the Bowery, ard will no doubt be received with loud ace claim by bia old friends, At Tum Moseem “The Stranger,!’ No," and “ Away with Melancholy" afford the entertainment dramatic for this afternoon and evening. ‘Tae Coronen Ormra,.—At Woods to-night, ® good concert programme, with three scenes from popular farces.

With regard to the basis of union, they reported that though they were dotirous of ‘an union, they were very much dissatisfied with the test! mony and suggested several amendmonts, ‘The clerk read by general consent an address from Ame- rican Christians to the Evangelical Conference to assemble in Berlin in September. The addrese set forth the prin- ciples generally believed by Evangelical Christians, and expressed a fraternal feeling for their brethren in Berlin. Rev. R. D.

Ho thought that @ more scceptablo confession of faith could be framed, aud union thus secured in the church.

Sonpay, May 4—6 P, M ‘There has been no important change in financial affairs during the past week. The money market coatiaues easy and the rates of interest at reduced points for first class ee’ curities, The banks meet liberally all the demands upon thom, and the Sub-Treasury is gradually letting o xt govern ment deporits. The disbursements, however, but slightly exceed the receipts, and the specie loosened in this way is not to an amount large enough to have much intiuence upon the market. We do not look for any change of coa sequence in the next bank statement. The specie reserve at the close of the week was, donbtees, smaller than on the week previous. The average has been # decreasing one | from the beginning, and the roiurns may show a difference of two or three hundred thousand dollars. Ia the line of loans the probability & a slight contrace tion will appear. In deposits we look for an imerease to @ moderate extent. The public mind bas become impressed with the fact that the country is upon ihe eve of a financial revulsion, and a disposision to withdraw capita! from business operations, from specula- tion and frem investments,particularly in railroad stocks, is daily becoming more marked and more general. Capita thus withdrawn goes into our city banks as deposits, there to remain for further and future developements. The to tal destruction that threstens two-thirds of the railroad stocks of the country has alarmed cautious and prudent men, and their first movement has been to get clear from all such investments. This bas thrown upon the market ‘vast quantities of railroad stocks, particularly those of Western companies, and they are (ast Gading a proper level. The loss by depreciation bas thus far been pretty well distributed, but those who may be induced to take hold of them, at what may be considered at present low prices, will in tho end be glad to sell ata loss, ‘and those who even then buy will not escape the universal infliction, Western railroad stocks will, as a general thing, entail more disasters of a pecuniary pature upon holders than ever resulted from the lapse of New England roads. There has been, throughout the construction aud operation of moat of our Western railroads, « rocklossuc and deeperation in financiering which is destined to sink them so deep in the depths of bankruptcy that at the best the first mortgage bondholders will, in the end, absorb the entire property. Many of the Now Fugland roads have come to this with much less extravagance (n floan ciering, and with much more knowledge of proper ma Bagement. In this State such results have already been realized, and before many years eclapee there will bea dozen railroads controlled and operated by (iret mortgage bondholders, where there is now one. There is no belp for it. ‘The emigration from all parts of the New England Statos to the Wert, particularly to Kansas, Nebraska, Minnesota and Wisconsin, exceeds anything of the kind ever before known. The desire to enter into land speculations ia those sections of the West where the question of slavery \s in agitation, and where {t has produced so much discord and difficulty, amounts, in the minds of the people of New England, to positive mania, and they are leaving their quict and pleasant bomes for the tarmoil of political commo- tion and the uncertainties of frontier life. The immense immigration into the States and Territories west of the of land speculation much greater and wider spread than that of 1835 and 1836, which led to the financial revulsion 4f 1837, At that time the excitement did not extend much further west than the State of Uhio, and was confined more to town and city lots than to s wide spread territory. Then the market was filled with beautifully engraved | maps, showing conveniently laid out cities, and most fabu- lous prices were paid for lots twenty-five by a hundred feet, by parties who really did not know that there waa actually such a piece of property in existence, The col lapse which followed that wonderful manta, or moral ia ranity, ruined thousands upon thousands, who, almost up to the very day of the convulsion aod explosion, im: | agined themsclves millionaires, The prostration and | dozression produced by this sudden disappearance of the | @no bubbles and public confidence, continued for several years, and it was only by vory slow degrees that the country finally recovered. [t was not until the discovery of gold in California that wo got again fairly under way. The rapid and enormous production of gold that followed | the discovery gave an impetas to business affairs generally and tho progress of internal improvements; and the acca- ulation of wealth has since been to an extent unprece- dented in the history of any people, It far exceeds any Previous period in oar career. After abouttwo yoars of Prosperity unparalleled, with but fow moderate and tem- porary checks, the wh le country bas Teached a point in credit, extravagance and speculation, that cannot be much longer sustained. We aresofar beyond our depth that many must sink under the weight of their liabilities be- fore reaching shore, Weare so deeply involved in the huterous works of internal improvement, that nothing abort of @ collapse and general prostration can restore the Proper equilibriam, The agricalsural class are as deo sly involved as any other clase—perhapa deeper—and the cause of our financial diffiouitios can be traced to this source, Thronghout the entire West nearly the entire local Population are up to their eyes and cars in land specula. tions, An immonse number of emigrants have been drawa from ail the Gastern States, particularly Massacho setts, New Hampshire and Maine; and they having be come imbued with the same fever of excitement have entered, far beyond their means, present oF prospective, into the movement. Government tants have been taken “HERALD, MONDAY, MAY 25, 1867. Mississippi river has produced an excitement in the way | at government price, and tn paasing through two or three transfers have increased ten fold in market value, and purctisecs have been made with no prospect of payment, except by immodiate sales at still higher rates. Kvery one is looking for new purchasers, and when they can no longer be fonnd—whon prices have reached a dogres of imfation, eyond which even the wiktest speculations can not carry tiem, then comes the collapse, aud tracts of | : land, whica have ia the course perhaps of a few montis changed bands a dozen times, will fall back into the po session of tao party or parties who probably eutered then at governmant prices. In this way the bubble will burs: | and seatter the whole army of speculators. A few of | those who have left their New Bngland homes may fint permanent locations, and be able to retain possession of their purchase by haying paid for it in fall, but the great mass will perhaps return to tho places from whore they ptarted, like straggling and way worn eoldiers from a of battle, disappointed and disheartened, but disposed to turnthetr attention for the future with more energy and perseverance to the ordinary duties of life. Wo have received from George D. Phelps, Fiq,, Into President of the Delaware, Lackawana and Wostera Rail- road Company, 4 pamphlet, being a bistory and reply to the report of an investigation made by a committse into the uttuirs of tho company,an! published by the Board of Managers. Mr. Phelps’ reply embraces many statements and facts going to show that the said investigation, as far ag he was concerned, was unfairly conducted; that many points Of importance Were suppressed: or omitted, while others were unfnirly distorted or introduced. It is due to Mr. Phelps that bis statements should be as widely known, and expectuily among the stockholders of the «aid road, us the report made by tie committee of investigation and published by the Board of Managers. ‘MWe rapid increase ta railroad Jubilitles is attract ing public attention throughout the country, aud holders Of railroad stocks are getting rid of them as fast as porsi bie. The Philadelphia Ledger of the 19th inst. says:-— ‘The accumulation of debt by railroad companics does not stop. Every day, and frequently several thnes on the Fame day, notices meet our eye of offers to sell bonds of prefered stock, and auch sales are daily effected-at most Tuinous rates Of discount. Not ouge ius year do we hear of railroad funded debt being legitimately paid. OM dobts are sometimes cancelled by new oves to a muck larger Amount being made with some other tos, This thing cannot last #lways, Au instance now before us is the of: fer of the Michigan Southern Railroad Company to tasue three miltion dollars preferred ten per cent stock, Halt of which is to be paid for in cash, and half in the old stock of the company, ‘The $1,500,000 thus raived, together with ollier astels in band, is to pay the floating ‘debt, and en- able the creditors tocarry onthe Snancial affairs of the company without farther hindrances. Another case of the ingatiate demand for more money is furnished by the Mi- neral Loiut Railroad Company, which offers to gelt $150,- 600 Jowa county § per cent bends, due Ist July, 1888; $520,000 lst mortgage sinking fund 6 per cent bonds of the company, due Ist July, 881; $150,000 2d mortgage do., due Tet July, 1868; $60,600 town of Mineral Point 8 per Cent beads, due Ist Gelober, 1870. The Harrisburg Rail- road Ce and tho Wilmington Railroad Compapy are renewing, with an increase, their old loans, and the Morris Cunu! Compuny is jesuing more of its preferred stock to pay divitends to common stckholders. So we go. The exportation of specie from this port last week wes much less then anticipated.
