NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1860.—TRIPLE Fc Ry il ncn ncn tne Ail Rene al nn Al widely we may differ from the positions assum- ed. We therefore cause to be reported fully and fairly the proceedings of every public as. #emblage of any importance, and when any ex- viting political topic comes up, or any widely #pread agitation (such as the present upon the slavery question) prevails, we spread before ur readers every detail, or circumstance, or fact, or argument bearing upon the question, so far as we can, by industry and perseverance, @ucceed in collecting them. We hold to the maxim of Mr. Jefferson, “Error is no longer dangerous when truth and reason are left free to combat it,” and there rest our case. While we have the best reasons to know that our course is satisfactory to the great body of the people of the country, we have also per- deived that there are not wanting, both in the North and the South, certain persons who, from ignorance or jealousy, or both, cannot under- stand our system, and charge us one day with printing an incendiary abolition sheet, and the next with editing a pro-slavery newspaper ‘This is miserable drivel, and not worthy a mo- ment’s attention: it is the old story of the dog barking at the moon over again. Like the chaste goddess, we shall continue in our chosen path, keeping the noiseless tenor of our way, and giving to our readers all the light which our resources and abilities can command. When will this ignorant and half civilized age understand that our mission is to aid the great principles of electricity and steam power in dis- spelling ignorance and immorality from the pre- sent races of man—and that, accordingly, we ave invented and organized the method of con- ducting a great newspaper on the Napoleonic principle of comprehensiveness, rapidity, truth and enterprise, all united in one great movement ? The Recent War Among the Opera Folks—Peace Proclaimed in Irving Place. Among other advantages which the metropo- lis possesses over and above the rural districts is one which we have not particularly noticed until very recently. It is the wonderfully soothing influence of the climate and sur- roundings of this island upon persons who are belligerently inclined. Over at Washington, or Boston or Richmond, editors, politicians and other distinguished persons rave at each other in the most sanguinary way, but when they come here they are as mild and as docile as so many spring lambs. More wonderful than all, these pacific influences have beéh extended to the Opera people, who have had a series of chronic difficulties, which sprang up in Boston, and to which we alluded more particularly a week ago. While the company was delighting the sages and philosophers, the belles and the blue stockings of the Yankee Athens, a dis- pute, only second in importance to the diffi- culty between the Emperor of the French and the Holy Father, broke out between Madame Gazzaniga and the managers. The papers took the matter up, and made a mess of it, as usual. Napoleon Ullman beat a retreat and fell back on the metropolis, leaving Marshal Ney Stra- kosch, with Corporal Patti, to bring off the killed and wounded, Harassed in his rear by the enemy’s small shot, Strakosch still managed to get over the frontier without the loss of any- thing but his temper, which is not an indispen- sable requisite for an Opera manager. The theatre of war was now transferred to Irving place, and the pending difficulty was involved with several minor quarrels and disputes, which are not worth mentioning. Things looked very squally for a day or two; but, owing to the magical climacteric influences of the me- tropolis, everything has been settled amicably in less than a week after the high contending parties placed their divine feet upon the dainty surface of this enchanted island The metropolitan atmosphere has operated upon the belligerent managers and infuriated prime ladies like Godfrey’s cordial upon a rebellious infant. Whether it is the gas, or the Croton water, or the delight- ful municipal government, or pious Pilsbury’s powerful police, or the scrupulously clean streets, or the liberally disposed stockholders of the Academy, or the Central Park, or the natural effects of the geographical and topo- graphical location of the city, we cannot say. Possil all these influences have united to humanize aud harmonize the belligerent sons and daughters of song. Whatever may be the reason, the fact is clear. The Opera flourishes like a forest of green bay trees. Peuce, unity, harmony, fra- terpity und all the moral virtues are actively cultivated io Irving place. It is a conserva- ‘tory o} ail the most delightful and sooth- ing eentiments that avimate the human breast. Uilman is affected with dangerous gayety, und is absolutely growing handsome. Strako-ci is in the most delightfully demonstra- tive stare of mind that ic ix possible to conceive of, shakes us by our two hands, and if we had four wo'd be charmed to extend his affection; Corporal Patti has had a fiae success in the “Barber,” and is, of course, charmed with her fresh isnrels; Colson is equally proud about “Der Freischutz,” and Guzzaniga, who is going to sing in “Sappho” next week, is as happy as a village beanty with a new bonnet; and Signor Muzio, te most excelleat :iuestro, is coutinu- ally composing lively pastorals, with joyous allegros »ud dashing andantes, expressive of the heavenly ‘eeling that pervades the hearts of all the recent contestants. Then, the German critica are quiet, and the three hungry French- men, baving had, for the first time in many years, a solid dinner, with plenty of wine, are in that agreeable state of mind which good eating and drinking invariably bring about. The public, too, is in a good humor. All the artists are liked—Patti is enthroned firmly as a popular pet—everything goes well— the manugers will make some money, and be in a condition to give us plenty of new sensa- tions next seasoa. Isn't it delightful, this pros- pect? And what a good example it is for ajl the kings, princes, a. ea editors and private persons w ‘qiMrrélling and fighting all over the world. We are not at all surprised to hear that some of the Italians here think that the reconciliation among the magnates of Irving place may go far towards settling their terrible national question, which has been puzzling all the wisest heads in Europe for so many years.

Burton, the wel known actor, author and manager. The event was not altogether unexpected by the friends of Mr. Burton. For several years past he has been laboring under a chronic disease—enlargement of the heart—brought on no doubt ‘by intense and unceasing application to the duties of his Profession, to which was added the caro of a large landed estate. Mr. Burton bad been advised by his phy- Siclans, acme time since, to retire altogether from the siege; bit his love for his art overbalanced everything else, and he continued to act until about the lst of January, when he was obliged to relinquish his provincial engage- ments, and to retura tothe metropolis, Superadded to his former ailment, dropsical symptoms appeared, and he gradually serk until half-past ten o'clock yesterday morp- ing, when he died. ‘The career of Mr. Burton has been an exceedingly in- teresting one, and we therefore present a brief sketch of it. He was born in the city of London, in September, 1802. His father wasa printer and pubiisher, and like wise an author. The son was bred to the business of the fatber, and after receiving a good elementary education, mastered all the mechanical dotails of the typographical art. One of the specialities of the business of tho elder Burton was the printing of claasical works, and tho son ata very carly age acquired a knowledge of the Greek and Latin languages for the purpose of proof reatiag. His knowledge of the English classics, and especially of the dramatic authors, was also thorough and profound The elder Burton died when the subject of our sketch had scarcely attained bis majority, and the business was con ducted by Will‘am inthe name of his mother. Like mauy of his craft, Mr. Burton was passionately fond of the the- atre, and cultivated the acquaintance of the actors, with whom he was brought in daily contact by his business. Thence the transition to the stage was easy. He acted as an amateur, playing for his first character Hamlet, and for a long time believed tragedy was his forte. He finally entered a company on what is called the Norwich circuit, and in 1832 appeared at the Haymarket, and made his début there in 1838, as Wormwood, in the farce of “The Lottery Ticket.” For years afterwards ho was compelled to undergo the usual vicissitudes, erste and disappointments which beset a novice upon the atage. He played anything and everything, and was content to take up with the leavings of other men who had attained a position with the public. By an accident he secured the part of “Paul Pry,” and made an cn. couraging success in it. In 1834 he resolved to come to America, and he arrived in Philadelphia, to which place he came without the advance which is usually given to artists. It was a matter of pride with Mr. B., that he was one of the very few Europeans artists who have come to the United States at their own expense. He made his début in September of the year before named, at the Arch street theatre, as Cornet Ollapod, in “The Poor Gentleman.’”’ He remained in Philadelphia several years, acting and writing for the press, and speedily obtained an extended reputation in art and let- ters, He conducted at this time ‘The Gentleman’s Magazine,’”’ and published two volumes of fugitive pieces, generally humorous sketches, which had an extended wale. His magazine articles attracted a great deal of at- tention and admiration. In his own profession he was recognized as a ‘‘star,’”’ and as such made a tour through the United States. His first essay in the metropolis was made at the old National theatre in Leonard street, then (1889) under the management of Mr. James Wallack. Mr. Barton played, for a complimentary benefit given to Mr. Wallack, Sir Simon Slack, in ‘Spring and Autumn.” ‘The first piece on this night was the opera of ‘‘Amilie,”’ im which the Seguins, Miss Shireff, and Wilson, the tenor assisted. Such an entertainment could not be matched a the present day. When the theatre was burned, Mr. Burton was connected with the management. He return- ed to Philadelphia in 1840, and fitted up Cooke's circus building, in Chestnut street, for theatrical represen- tation, and called it the National Theatre. He had a very fine company, which at various times included ‘Misses Charlotte and Susan Cushman, Henry and Thomas Placide, and other noted performers. The famous fairy piece the “Naiad Queen” was produced here for the first time in the United States, and netted a small fortune for the manager; he invested the larger amount of his earn- ings in his friecd Nick Biddle’s famous United States Bank of Pennsylvania, and suffered severely by the smashing up of that institution. In 1841 he leased the theatre corner of Leonard and Charch streets, in this city, and brought his Philadelphia company on here, to- gether with all the beautiful scenery, for the prosecution of the ‘‘Naiad Queen.’’ The piece hada fine run, and whilst in the midst of success the building caught fire and was again burned, destroying also all of Mr. Burton’s splendid scenery. The building was first burned in 1839, while under the management of Mr. James Wallack. We next find Mr. Burton, nothing daunted by misfortune, the managero the Arch street theatre, Philadelphia, the theatre at Washington, and the Front street in Baltimore, Next after the Park he bad the best company in the coun- try, and was distinguished for the liberal way in which he mounted new pieces. He did ‘London Assurance’ with @ real aviary and real fountains, but that the birds wouldn’t sing and the fountains wouldn't play. The result of Mr. Burton’s managerial speculations in the yates ‘was not pecuniarily magnificent, and he resolved, in 1548, to have a dash at the metropolis. He selected a spot bo- tween the Park and Bowery fires, namely, Palmo’s old Opera House in Chambers street. Palmo had mate a for- tune in @ cofé in Broadway, and lost it in trying to manage Italian Opera. The theatre was afterwards used for model artist exhibilions and travelling shows of all sorts. It wasconsidered as terribly low, and Mr. Burton's speculation was regarded as a suicidal affair. He opened, however, in September, '48, and during the firet part of his season lost money nearly every night. He worked ou unceasingly, and was almost ubiquitous. He acted one night here, another in Philadelphia, aud apotber in Baitimore, and then repeated the operation for week in and week out. The first hit made at Coambers street was Mr. Brougham’s adaptation of “ Dombey and Son,” cleverly adapted, and admirably acted. (Who that saw. the play can forget Burton's ‘“Cuttle,”’ Brovgham’s ‘ Bunsby,’’ or Raymond's “ Toot’s.’') “*Dombey and Son’? hai a great run, and may be fairly considered as the foundation of the manager’s far- tune. The buroing of the Park a year after the opening of the pew theatre left Mr. Burton master of the fleia He speedily gathered around hima fine company, aud Produced al! the new Londoa plays in rapid succession. Above all others, ‘‘The Serious Family’ took the towa by storm. Mr. Burton created the part of Aminidab Sleek, and played it altogether over six hundred times. ‘Tne Toodles,’’ altered from an old fashioned domestic ¢rama, “a Farmer's Story,” was likewise « terrific hit. Mr. Burton was now rich again. He bought the theatre for the sum of thousand doi built @ fine town hoase in Hadson street and a splendid country residgnce at Glen Cove, Long Island. He felt, too, that he do something in the of illustrating the Shaks; drama, of which he ‘® thorough knowledge, and for which he felt the most fervent adoration, He produced severai of the ——— plays, and placed them on the stage with Siaegree of aitention to detail asda Ble. which bave never been equall “Twelfth Night “ The Tempe,” “The Merry Wives of Windsor,” and “A Wi "s Tale,’ were among these revivals. In 1856, Mr. Burton, after a most prosperous career in Rege bers etreet, succumbed to the uptown movement, ‘the upon the Lafarge estate, irenkany; opposite Bond street, which he opened in Sp- ae of the yoar above named, with a powerful array of popular artusts. His audience followed him, ani the profits of the theatre during the first months of ‘the sea: son were very great.

And what is very singu. lar, the testimony taken before the Commissioner against Williams appears to have been given with the best and and most honest intentions on the part of the witnesses The facts and circumstances to be made public on the examiaation of another witness, now under arrest, will probably make the case much plainer than it has yet appeared, and, we trust, fully satisfy the commu- nity who is really the guilty party in this extraordinary affair.

Strakosch as An- netta,{Stigelli as Max, Junca as Caspar. Madame Oolson and M.
