The repetition of Flotow’s ‘Martha’ gives us au opportunity of noticing the groat improvementwhich has taken place in @ favorite American prima dopna, We refer to Miss Kellogg, whose artistic ability i# clearly established by the role of Lady Henrietta in ‘‘Martha.'’ The responsibility of the opera, ef course, rests upon the artiste who sings this part, whieh, if foadequately rea- dered, must entsil the non-success of the representation. Mise Kellogg executes the music with delicacy and skill, and meets with genuine applause from our somewhat cold audiences. It is of course a matter of pleasure to our Public thas this artiste, who has uover had the advantages of @ foreign musica: tuition, should so satisfactorily agsume the position of prima donpa, which up toa fow years past was deemed a watter out of the question gave where the flat of a Paris and London audience had ad- ministered a dipioma. Miss Kellogg is attracting notice by hor careful attention to every department of her art ‘and her evident desire to legitimately rank high in public estimation, Hor success in ‘ Martha’ is a fact wo take pleasure in recording. Milo, Sulzer in this opera is also very successful She sings and acts hor role most satisfactorily, as is evincod by the applause sho receives. Lotti, who is nightly gaining in public favor, is ever most successful in “Martha.” Ho sings with much ex pression and feeling, and is constavtly aud toudly ap- planded. Biachi is a very isfactory Piuukett. He dresses the character too well, however, He certainly doves not lok like a rough countryman, With bis voivet jacket and bright loggings, long black hair and flerce mustache, be has all the appearance of an Italiam bandit instead of a Dumpkin. He sings and acts his rol, however, extrete!: well, aud receives much applause. The drinking song, which he gives witb so much auiiuation, is always ev. cored.
