MUSICAL AND THEATRICAL, eee ‘The past wock has. beon a prosperous one for the Uheatres. The victories .f MoCiellan following close upon sqgme another jand culminating in the expulsion of the rebels from Marylan! Lave imparted such an exuberant tone to the poblic mind, that peopie fee! in the disposition to seek amuseineni os acompensation for the painful suspense in whieh they Uave leon kept for some weeks back. advaptaces gaivod by the Union cause are rapid- ly foliowe: up we shall bave euch @ season of sotivity, artistically os well as commercially, as has not beeu witnessed here for some years, In the meantime all the pisces of public amusement are doing well, and the confidence inspired by the improved aspect of our military affairs ws stimalating some of them to do better, by the production of novelties which @ fow months ‘Since would have been deemed havardous. The prepara- tons in this way are of the most extensive kind, and will place the season on which we are enteriug on a par with the most remune ative known by our theatres. This evening Mr. Nixon commences his brief season of opera—a sort of preliminary bonne bouche to the good things that are coming. We have, on several former o¢- casions, expressed our opinion of the favorable chances under which Miss Carlotta Patti presents horself to the Publio as an operatic singer. The anticipations thus formed have been strengthened by the manner in which the acquitted herself at her iast rehearsai on Saturday. Tt w not improbable, after all, that we shall have an op- portunity of hearing several of the artists of the Maretvek \woupe dofore their departure for Havana, ‘Three of them—Madame Charton, Mile. Sulzer and Signor Maz- zoloni—wili arrive from Earope this weck, and, a8 they cannot leave for Cuba until! the remainder vf the troupe reaches New York, it is not likely that they Willremain idle during the interval. We are having quitean iuflux of operatic artists just now. The Ghioni trouve, who buve been touring it in Central America, returued here the week before last; but will not, we presume be abie todo anything here beyond strength ening the other combinations. To-morrow, or the day after, Uliman will arrive, bringing with him Mlle. Cor tier «md one or two other vocalists. Titiens is not ox pected nntil the begivuing of November, but will commence her engagement a week sooner than was at firs: anuounced. The above embrace: the whole pro- granine oF operatic movemuts as far as they are at Presert known When the little Napoleon arrives we shall be in & condition to enlarge npon it. ‘The veteran Walisck commenced the winter campaign on M mday last with one of the ster! uy comedios—*The Love Chase’ —the cast aud mounting of which gave so moch sats.action during his iast season. The house was @spiondid one, and the jublic marked she foeiizg with which they welcomed bach (lis favorite comyauy by the heasrtiness of the applause with wit indrvidually greoted.

Mr. Nixon is about to build an opera house on the site of his present concert reom at Cremorne Gardens. It is «to be styled the “Opera Comique,”’ and will present aeve- ral innovations in theatrical architecture. si At the Old Bowery Mr. G. L. Fox is nightly drawing crowded houses by his performances in burlesque, gome- @y and pantomime. No of@ suits better the taste of the ‘fudiences at the east side of: ten town than thie emnsibent actor. ‘Miss Adah Isaacs Menken’s engagement has-been trump card for the New Bowery., fhe houses haye been capital during the week, aud are likely to continue 50 un. tii the close of her performances. ‘This evening she ap-~ pears in the character of ‘Eagle Eye,” im the equestrian Indian drama of that name. At Barnum’s ‘Claude Marcei’’ still holds its place inthe theatre. This drama is fairly entitled to the popularity with which itthas been favored. It abounds with inci” dent, is splendidly put upon the stage, and is supported by an excellent cast. Since the opening night it has nevér failed to draw overflowing audiences. In the Mu- seum we note but little change. Wood's elegant little theatre continues to be most fashionably patronized. The effort to draw the apper ten to their minsirelsy entertainments has been attended with the most complete success. Bryants’ admirable troupe enjoys as large « share of the public favor as it can desire. The houses here are the best that we have seen for many seasons past, George Christy is again on the rampage, and will shortly open in Washington. Mr. Hooley has taken the hall at the corner of Court and Remser streots, Brooklyn, at present occupied by Mr. W. Christy, and will commence business there in about a fortoight with his excellent troupe of minstrels. He has obtained a lease of the building for three years, with the privilege of continuing it for ten, and is about to make extensive alterations in it. The seats are to be raised to a grade sufficient to give an uninterrupted view of the stage, and a handsome entrance ts to be built on Court street. The following well known names are to eompose Mr. Huoley’s company:—T. B. Prendergast, A. Hughes, C Neal, Gustavus Percy, G. Wrightman, Geo. Rea, S. Hayes and Wernig, Gardner, Eddie and Edward. John Savage's tragedy of “Sybil” was produced with very marked success at the Walnut street theatre, Phila- deiphia, last week, Mrs. Waller sustaining tho principal part. ‘Sybil’ promises to have s run in Philadelphia, Jodging from the flattering terms in which the acting of Mrs. Waller and the merits of the tragedy arc spoken of by the press of thar city. | ‘There is but ove festival announced to take place at Jones’ Wood this week, and consiats of the annual cele- bration excursion of the American Protestant Association. ‘This tostival will be held on Thuraday next. FORKIGN. Gazzaniga is amongst the artists engaged for La Scala fur the ensuing operatic season. Charlotte Cushman ia at prosent im Paris, and speaks of returning to this country to resume the practice of her profession, having lost @ considerable portion of ber fortune in unsuccessful speculations hore. Of all the artists whom we have contributed to the London stage Mr. Sothern is the most popular. His like- ness is to be seen im every print shop, and Dundreary paletots and hats are all the rage. The piece continues to draw az crowded hous:s as ever at tho Haymarket. A farce by Mir.

We leara from Milan that a new opera by Pacini, founded on the subject of Don Juan de Marana, is in pre- paration there,in which Mme. Borghi-Mamo takes the leading character. ‘the Gazette des Thea'res states that M. Calzado has taken a lease of the Italian theatre ata yearly rent of 140,000 francs, with a stipulation that he shall be entitled to re. new itfor three years at 160,000 francs. In addition there is the expouse of insurance, which is 12,000 francs avear. M. Bocage, the celebrated actor, whose career was at its culminating point about thirty years ago, at tho time of the groat quarrel between the classigues and roman. tiques, hes just died in Paris, aged sixty-seven. The Choral Union of Paris announces a competition for } & Prize Mass, for men’s unaccompanied voices, There are for this to be two prizes: the first, an orgue Alazandre value £20; the second, the score of a Requiem Mass, by M. Fetis. It may not be uninteresting to our readers to ‘earn that the son of the great Bolginn professor (Adolphe Fotis) is at present serving asa sergeant in Com- pany I, Independent battalion, New York light infantry, at present stationed at Yorktown. He 1s, like his father, an accomplished musician and composer. A regular melodrama of the “sensation” school, in al! the force of that well understood term, has been pro duced at the Ambigu, Paris, with very great applause, entitled “Les Mysteres du Temple.’ It is from the pen of M. Sejour. ‘The opera of M. Berlioz, mentioned in a former articie as in preparation at Baden, has been brought out with cla’, aud was received with great favor. Ite title is ““eatr ce and Senedict,’’ names which the reader will at once recollect as the two chief characters in Shakspere's celebrated ‘Much Ado about Nothing.”’ The music is de scribed as very good and the execution excellent. Mine Charton-Demeur, who was the Beatrice, sang charm ingly. ‘Miss Avonia Jones lias been playing Medea at the Adel- phi, London, her appearance in the part being merely uu derstood as a prelude to ap engagement, in which she will take the voles hitherto filled by Madame Celeste in Adel- phi picces. A new farce, by Mr. John Oxenford, called “Bristol Diamonds,” in which Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mathews occu- pied the principal characters, has been produced with great success at the St. James’ theatre. Few farces of ‘equal merit have appeared for some time. It is said to bes masterpiece ef simple and yet exact construction. Thirty Arabs of the tribe of Beni-zoug-zoug have been engaged to vary the entertainments at Drury Lane theatre. They are distinguished by Reculiaritieg that render (heir feats ongectally curious. In addition to the usual tricks which Bedouin Arabs some years since exhibited, they re rau ® pee of evolutions which illustrate ‘he wild jesert, imitating the hunt- fog of the lion, the leaping of the Liger, the motions of the serpent and the bound of the antelope. Moreover, they waite together 60 as to form architectural struc:ures, aud coutrive to maintain their relative positions, whether lying horizontally on the stage or resuming their ome - Pe ET ot London theatre a play, written by Mr. Travers, and founded on the well known and rer in- cident iS Sena reteaa wikwetes of the Coc! ghost, has been produ ithout an: iret or ati noveily of construction, several of the the trivances, by which the entrances and exii e ant wmanaged, are ingeviously contrived, and secure the applause to which they are entitled. ‘The Limited #iability Upera Company are in treat: Drory Lane theatre for next season, and will peel prot obiain it ‘A psthumous opera by Lortzing, who wrote his own Dooks, bis own music and sang in the same— Exquires'’—is to be given in tho Casino roll, at Berlin ivaring the past season the harp seems to have been in great request in London.

Alderman Jaaumian was call to the chai ‘THE PROPOSED REMOVAL OF THR CITY CHAMBERLAIN. a départment by a two-thirds vote, was received:— Grrr or New York, Law Derarruanr, O1usce Covxert To Conronatio™, Sept. 20, 1862, on gr ronolasion oy the folowing djects. b answer to your tion Bul 0 to tas the Board of Aldermen, twe-tirda of my elected concurring, have power to remove certain officers from office “ for eause,’” and duties '' (section twenty one). must be “ for cause,’’ what and sixty-one, which provides, shat the heads of depart- ments in this city then in office “ shail remain in office until after the niment of the next Legislature, un. tess’ convicted of official misconduct apon charges’ pre- ferred before the Recorder. The ninth section is as fol- lows:—* All acts and parts of acts inconsistent with this act are hereby repeaied.’’ (Statute, oue coe sien hundred and sixty one, page six hundred and gixtecn.) it is said that the repealing clause 1s absoli dermen power to remove certain officers is gone Tam not of that opinion. The manifest intention of the Legislature—aad the intent gee Cranks poe must govern—was to repeal, or rather suspend, any provision of the charter cs age “ inconsistent’? "with what bad with the removing power of the Board of next queation is, whether the aon removed can con- tinue to exercise the office after romoval until the ap- pointment of a successor. ‘Tho charter provides as to the class of officers in question that they ‘‘ shall hold their offices for two years, and until the appointment of their successors.” The tonure is of course subject to the Power of the aldermen to remove the officer be- fore the term has expired, peotion premix. O86.) In. my opinion a porson has been re- moved’ from an office cnet aplration of - his term is completely out of the office, and can uo longer act in an official capacity. The provision for holding for aterm, and unti! a successor is appointed, means a hold. ing over alter the term has expired, aud not after a re- moval from office. It would sometimes be very danger- ous to allow a removed officer to act after the removal, as in case of an officer having a large stm of money ju his hande,or charged with some other public ‘trust of great importance, who bas been removed tor the very Treason that the money or other trust was not deemed safe in his hands. And although this,as 1 presume, is not a case of that kind, tbe rule is the same in all cases were the removal is “for causo.”” There is a provision in the general law which, though not striétly applicable to cur Corporation officers, goes to confirm what has al ready been said, Every otlicer who has entered upon the duties of his « fice “shail continue to discharge the duties thereof, although his term of office shall have expired, until a seccessor in such office shail be duly qualified.'’ (1 RS. 117, section aine.) It provides for holding, as will be seen, after the term of office has expired, aoe does not touch the case of an officer who has been moved before the fer tiris of his term, Hesectuls submitted, - BRONSON.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Soxdar, Sept. ‘21, 1862, The importations at this port continue to be heavy—much heavier than they were at this time last year, and much heavier than was expected by the framers of our tariff. Stocks of goods of all kinds in the hands of country merchafits are ryaning low, and, pot» vhatanding the recent in- crease in (6 | price of foreign merchandise, people Geom as Willing to buy them as ever, Still, fortu- nately ny the country, our exports of produce conti so liberal that there is a balance in our favor ow the trade of this port for the year which commenced gn the Ist of January of nearly twelve millions of do. ats. The exports of ian have fallen to a small fguresemuch much ce ee Was expected. With our receipts Se Ce jifornia we could afford to ship much more coin 10 Ero} than we are doing, and sound economists be joice to see a more active flow of bullion to the other side. The following are the official tables of the trade of the port for the year and since Janua- ry li:— Iarones.

The statement whieh will be made up to-morrow will show a farther increase in every column, the largest inorease being, as usaal,in the doposits, which yesterday morning amounted to over $160,000,0°0.

Monday they showed a decline, which was mainly due to the panic caused by the rebel invagion of MaiTiond, and the danger tyat‘Washington mighi, Some of the more prudent bank managers Tauawewe part with at least a portion of their government’ securities. Last week these timid’ operators probably replaced the stecks and certificates they sold, at one or two per cent advance in the price. - Money became more abundant. Jast week, and closed in large supply\at 4. per conten. call. Mer- cantile paper sells at 4 a5 per cent for first olass names on short paper, and’ @ 7 for long paper, or names less generally known. Government twelve months paper, bearing six per cvnt interest, sellp at 1 per cent discount. The banks are using their deposits pretty freely in the purchase of these cer- tiflcates of indebtedness; they.are as good @ short investment as can be found. Demand notes have started up during ‘the past week, and are now wanted at 1125. A few weeks ago they were Selling at 105 a 106, and not very active at the price. The leading importers then took advantage of their cheapness to lay in a stock of them for the payment of duties. Hence, now, when the unexpected volume of importations creates @ more active inquiry than was anticipated, they are found to be very scarce, and the price rises 4a lper cent aday. It is estimated that at the present rate of importations they will all be absorbed by February next, at which period they will, conse- quently, rule as high as gold. If, however, the Union troops win the victories which they are ex- pected to win beforé ‘that time, neither gold nor demand notes may be worth 12 per cent premium in February Exchange and gold fluctuated last week be- tween 128 and 130 for the former, and 116% and 118 forthe latter. They closed respectively yes- terday at 129 and 117}. The supply of produce bills about satisfies the demand for exchange from the trade, and consequently there is but little export of specie. We have been shipping some cotton to Europe lately, and at present prices a very few bales furnish quite an amount of exchange. Still, however, unless cotton should come forward much more rapidly than is the case at present, there is no prospect of an over supply of bills, especially in view of our large itnporta- tions of foreign goods. Our importations, under the new tariff, promise to prove quite heavy enough to-absorb all the bills created by ship- ments of produce and specie. The people of this country have evidently no intention as yet of cur- tailing their consumption of foreign goods or re- ducing their expenditures. So long as they con- tinue to consume as before, it will require all the exports we can spare to pay for the goods we buy.

It is remarked, however, that the advance has been most marked in the speculative stocks, and that government securities and reliable railway bonds have not been in pro- portion, Tho fact contirms the view taken more than once of late in this column, that the public are not prominent buyers of stocks, and that the recent advance is a brokef’s affair. There are, of course—in the condition of the money market, in the increase im the bank depusits, in the issues of paper money, in the large railway trafic, and in the recent successes of the Union army—reasons for an.advance in stocks. But it is due to truth to say that at the present moment neitier the pub- lic nor the leading Wall street operators appear to be swayed by these considerations. Within the past day or two there have been very heavy sales of the !eading speculative shares, such as Erie pre, ferred, ‘oledo, Michigan Central, guaranteed, Reading, Rock Island, &c. The sellers have been holders who bought at much lower prices. The buyers, so far as we can gather, huve been smail operators in Wall street who buy one day witha view of acing ata profit on the next. The opinion of the leading Wall street men appears to be that after the advance of the past week a smart reaction is inevitable; and, though they may be mistaken, as they often are, ex- perience tends to confirm their judgment. it is quite possible that in the course of the coming winter the leading speculative shares may rule at much higher prices than those which are now current. But in the meantime there may be many fluctuations and many reactions, and itis na, tural that each rise of two or three per cen, should be followed by @ relapse. It is certain that the truest index of the speculations of the public— the bond market—reveals no evidence of outside buying of late. The leading bonds—namely, the first mortgage bouds of the New York lines of roads—are so high as not to be a tempting pur- chase. But that class of bonds which, owing to ite newness and to the fact that it has not yet been fairly distributed among the public, such as the bonds of the Pittaburg and Fori Wayne, and the Chicago and Northwestern, are no higher than they were a fortnight or a month ago. In course of time Me Rar: ag" urities will probably be appreciated: et value will assimilate to that of Foe be Aone bonds which enjoy the advantage of being better knowa. But meanwiiie they drag ata price which shows that for the time the in- quiry for inveatinents has beeu checked. So with government geourities, United States sixes of 1881 rale at about 102, and 7.30 notes, convertible into twenty bac sixes, at 104% a 105. If there were an; fay for favestment "te | pul these Sturides would selling at ey much higher prices. Pos- sibly, after the practical results of the brief but decisive campaign in Maryland are developed, p Tréan dm wiry ‘or investments and a new demand for {aterest Paying sggurities may arise. At pre- sent Wall street is rathe? befogged on military affairs. Some operators believe that the expulsion of the rebels from Maryland will prove the begin- ning of the end of the rebellion, and that hence- forth we are to have nothing but military successes and a steadily advancing market. Others, again, regret, or affect to regret, the escape of the rebel army, and predict an indefinite prolongation of the war, with iaevitable accompanimonts in the shape of a largely increased debt and a still fur. ther depreciation of currency, Between. the two the market bids fair to halt, at least fora day or two. The advance during the past week or two in such active secarities as Erie preierred, Rock Island, Michigan Central and Toledo has been un- usually rapid and vigorous, It may continaes iui among the oldef operators a reaction seeins to be generally anticipated, A decline of three to ionr per cent would bring in fresh bnyer#, aud would lead to the creation of a bear interest—an ele- ment of strength which is wholly wanting in the market at present, — | th CITY COMMERCIAL REPORT.
