The Western States offer abundant chances for labor of this kind. The Lancashire workmen can find plenty of occupation there, ‘and the more of them that go the better. They ‘can not only cultivate farms, but establish fac- tories, thus rendering the immense water power ‘of the West most profitable, and they may in time build up little Manchesters and Birming- ‘bams and Lowells all over the great West. This would be but developing still more forei- bly the prediction of Bishop Berkely that “Westward the star of Empire”—and the loom— ““takes its way.” Tue Suty Rewicious PaPers anp THE War.—One of the religious papers suggests that the war against slavery must be prolonged “for forty years or more if mecessary, like the old wars against Popery; but the silly writer forgets that the age of waging war for religious opinions or philosophical abstract ideas is past. ‘The present war is not a war against slavery, nor will the people of the United States ever permit it tobe. The silly writer also forgets that as we progress in the science of war, the increased destructiveness of the agencies employed, and the enormous expense attending @ campaign, combine to render all wars upon a large scale necessarily short; and ours is upon the largest and most expensive scale known in history since the birth of Christ.

M. OPERATIC AND THEATRICAL. J Musical. The Maretzek opera troupe has safely arrived, and we may now look forward to a sustained sea- son at our Academy of Music. Impreasario Maretzek Promises us novelties the most seductive, while bis artists are well known to fame. If report speaks true, we are to have one of the finest operatic seasons New York has ever known. We sincerely hope that in this in- stance report is right, and shall await with anxiety the opportunity of hearing the splendid works announced, While making this promise, however, report has it that Manager Maretzck, who intends to conduct his enterprise en a magnificent scale, will increase the prices for reserv- ed seats, We think this would be a mistake on the part of the management, not only as regards the feeling it would produce among the habitues of the Academy of Music, but also in its results as @ speculation. The prices paid now are remunerative if the house ia well filled, which it certainly will be if the performances are good, We understand the opera of ‘ Norma’’ will open the season, In this role Medora, the prima donna, has wou great applause in Havana, from an audience prover: Diaily critical and bard to please. Manager Maretzek and his artists will find New York eager to patronize them. We may safely predict a most successful season, should the management prove as liberal as is expected. Good operas, well performed, with ample choruses and orchestra. and a caroful mise en scene, will be sure to at- tract crowded houses. The taste for opera has grown in New York, and if properly catered for will surely make Uberal returns. This week closes the short but brilliant season which Manager Anschutz bas carried through so valiantly with bis German Opera troupe. In Brooklyn they have won green laurels and greenbacks, the artists gaining in repu- tation, and Manager Anschutz also, as he has proved that an operatic season may be given in the suburbs of our great city with immense success. He understood that in Brooklyn the mupichl taste ranged under high prices; 0 ho gave the good people first class operas—cheap at the highest prices—for the low figure they appreciate. The result has been houses crammed to the dome with a highly pleased audience, and thus Manager Anschutz made the speculation pleasing and profitable to all parties, Next week the German Orera troupe goes to Philadelphia, where their previous season ‘was an overwhelming succes, Last evening the benefit of Mr. Joseph Noll took place. Its success was somewhat marred by the detestable weather. Next Friday evening the last performance will be given here prior to the de- Parture of the troupe. We heartily commend Manager Anschutz to the Philadelphians, ‘The Rostonians are in ecstacies over their operatic sea- son. They shower compliments upon Manager Grau, to say nothing of more substantial proofs of their satisfac- tion, while they rave abont the artists in the most extra. ordinary manver. The critics of some of the journals are delighted beyond measure at the fino toilettes displayed at their opera house, and make so much fuss about fine bonnets, rich opera cloaks—which, with a true New Eng- land appreciation of the beautiful, they deem ‘costly’? — as to make ways for a “guess’’ that Boston is not acens. tomed to making such a show of /oilletle as we are fa- miliar with in Gotham, The butterfly and humming bird ‘style of headdress cause one critic paroxysms of envy. Ho says “they flutter over so much beauty, taste and Mkill”’ We are sorry to add that the same critic accuses the ladies of being ‘fully sensible to the admiration they excited.’’ They seem to have animated headdresses in Poston, to judge from tho following phrase, indulged in by the same person:—‘Among the audience last evening were soveral of the new headdresses, which attracted all eyes and excited various commonts.”” Our favorite artists—Signora Lorini, Miss Kellogg, Mile. Morensi, Mlle, Cordier, Brignok, Amodio, Maccaferri and Susini—are all praised in the warmest terms. Miss Kellogg, who opened the season, is pronounced ‘charm. ing, dolightful, an accompliched artiste’’—in fact, sho is established as a favorite, Of Signora Lorini, she is said “to have taken her place in the front rank of prime donne.” Morensi has become a favorite “by her spirited and decided vocalization, as well as by her fine acting."” Signor Brigno!i was ever a favorite in Boston, and con- tinues to win from the habitues of the Academy of Music great applause. While mentioning this artist it may not be amiss to state that we have seen @ signed engagement sent to him by Manager Gye, of the Royal Itahan Opera, | Covent Garden, London. The terms were £320 a month for the first season, £360 for the second, and £400 per menth for the third—the artist to make his debut in ‘La Favorita’’ or Trovatore” this spring, aud toving during the season with Adelina Patti, The engagement stated Signor Brignoli was to be the ©Premier tenor absolu”—frst tenor. This attempt to capture our fayer ite failed from the foresight of Manager Grau, who long since secured Brignoli for the year. We understand that next season Signor Brignoli will accept the engagement; in fact he has signitied this to the English impresario, who will, no doubt, conclude the arrangement by return of post. The artist has, we think, lost a magnificent oc | casion to make hia debut in Europe under the most ad | Vantageous circumstances. What is his loss however, is Manager Grau'’s gain, and we do not doubt that the latter considers the matter fully compensated thus. The other artists—Maccaferri, Amodio and Susini—get their {ull share of the praise bestowed by the Poston | crities upon the troupe. In fact, Maccaferri seems to be visited the President yesterday, and urged the promotion | “2PT° | Reed, Mr. Cook and Mr. fulin Boston, where his Ernani, bas been © atmost pleasing performanee.

A concert was given at Irving Hall on Saturday even ing, which attracted the elite of New York society. It was an “amateur musical entertainment,” under the direction of Signor Rendenclla, for the benetit of Mr. W: H. Cooke, The ladies ard gentlemen who sang deserve great praise for their performances, which reflect much credit upon their professor, Sinner Rondenella, the popular mauire de chant, whose pupils they mostly are, ‘The programme was most varied nnd attractive. Mr. S. B. Mills was the pianist upon this occasion. He begen the evening's performance by a solo on the piano, a “Fantasia Rigoletto,’ composed by Liszt. Then Miss fash rang « trio from*l due Foscari’ in such style aa to caure us to forget that ama rd. After this a duetto from “Don Pasquale’ was given by Mise | Smith and Mr. Berry with great envembie, ‘Ihe audience | were excited to great applause, and a rated demand for an encore by Mine Reed's splendid rendition ef the ‘Ab! Mon Fils, She substituted for the encore de maaded the Valse d'Abelia.”” It now beca evident, from the agitation displayed by the ladies, that something eagerly expected was to take place. ‘The programme an nounced a trio from ‘Ernani,’ and Mrs. Rovalds was the soprane. This lady—the star of the ovening—has won applause in the salons of London and Paris, Her voice is one which rivals that of artists well known to fame. in London she created a furor in the bean monde by singing duets with Lady Otley. In Paris she sang with great effect at the private concerts given by the Empress Ru: genie, The lady's beauty and ravisanie totiette added to the eflect produced by her adinirabie singing in the wie | we are now referring to, Inthe eecend partof the pro- | gramme there were gems which we have not «pace here to mention. Miss Smith sang with greut purity and expression @ canzonetta composed by signor Rondenelin. Ihe ductto betwoen Mrs. Ronaias and Mr. Cook, trom the “Tallo,”’ was admirably rendered, Hut the great succens of the | ng with such evening was the “Ab! non Credea, purity and effect by Mre.

The ladies sang with ail the aplomb of professionals, and were as merry and arch as was required, To sam up whether a more pleasing or artistic concert was | given within the Irving Hall Grafulla’s eighth promenade concert took piace at the nth Regiment Armory on Saturday evening, last, aud was a great auccess, the large audience present ap auding most heartily the fine music.

The reports as to her marriage are unfounded, Theatrical, The theatrical event of the past week waa the discon- tinuance of Mr Kdwin Booth’s engagement at the Winter Garden, in consequence of the severe illness of his wife who died on Saturday last, at Dorchester, Mass. We ga ‘an obituary notice of BMrs. Booth yesterday, and refer to the subject here only to set at rest the prevalent reports prejudicial to Mr, Booth’s reputation as an actor. It is very true that Mr. Booth’s perfurmances during bis re cent engagement have been far below his usual staa- dard; but this resulted from his anxiety in regard to bis w illness, which completely prostrated his nervous system and even affected bis mind. We can- not excuse the Winter Garden management for allowing ‘Mr. Booth to appear under such circumstances. It would have been better to disappoint the public by closing the theatre, or substituting some other performance, than to Place Mr. Booth upon the stage when ho was really unfit to act, and thus injure his reputation and disgust the au- Aiences, who were, of course, ignorant of the real cause of Mr. Booth’s trouble. Seldom have we seen shakspere so murdered as at tho Winter Garden during the past two weeks; aud now, that the truth is known, we hold the management, and not Mr. Booth, responsible for the nightly repetition of this crime. . For want of space we have hitherto refrained from noticing the beneiits which have recently taken place. Mrs. Hoey’s beneMt at Wallack’s last Tuesday was very suceessful. ‘The Magic Marriage’? was the play. Mr. Charles Fisher, one of the best actors in the country, had abenefit at the same theatre on Saturday last. “ The Captain of the Watch’? and “ Masks and Faces’) were played for the first time at Wallack’s. The house was immonse. Mr. Fisher’s Triplet, in‘ Masks and Faces,” is famons, and the rest of the cast was unusuaily strong. This bill will be repeated on Thursday evening, when we shall notice the performance more at length. Ou Friday evening Mr. G. L. Fox took a benefit at the Old Bowery, and closed his engagement on Saturday. Miss Bateman had a farewell benefit at Niblo’a Gar- den on Saturday last, and will retire for a while to recover from her present illness. The Bateman, Wal lack and Adams combination has been broken up, Mr. J. W. Waillack, Jr., baving withdrawn from the concern, He was the strength of the combination, and has fow equals as a@ melodramatic actor. The benctite at Wal Jack's theatre will be continued this week, Miss Mary Gan- non’s being announced for Tuesday. We trust this favo- rite, merry little actress, confestedly the first iu her line, will have fair weather this year. Only a tremendous storm will prevent the public overcrowding the theatre on Tuesday to testify their appreciation of her talents. “The Lite Treasur ud * Ernestine’? will be performed for her benedt, This evening Mr. E.G. P. Wilkins’ charming comedy, “Henriette,” will be repeated at Waliack’s, This come dy has been most successful, and is now unanimously ap. proved by the press and public. On Wednesday the Pauline,’ will be performed tor the French molodrama, last time, The remainder of the week's programme, as far as announced, we have already given. Migs Mary Provost appears at the Wiuter Garden this evening as Parthenia, in “Ingomar.” Miss Provost's last performance in this city was very successful, and since then che has achieved a great reputation in the provinces, It will be remembored that Misa Provost had a theatre of her own, on Broadway, a year or so ago, obliged to close on account of her serious which she w: iMness, ‘Nell Gwynne” is in rehearsal, Mrs. John Wood continues her triumphs io “The Fair One with the Golden Locks," at Laura Keene's | theatre, and will introduce this evening a new Mr. Wale | in deference to the very genoral complaint of the press,!’ he has altered the play a little, aud “erased ono of the best scenes of his own.’” That will improve the piece.

The fairy pantomime, “Cinderella,” will be performed by a troupe of children and ponies at the \culemy of Musie this evening, Singing by Mies Atlineon, danct by Fouche and Sophie and drumming by Master Edward Daniels vary the performance, which ts an excellent ono for children.
