But the de iclous music and the pretty, romantic story of the “Bohemian Giri,” given in any language, seldom fall vo draw, Tne public, moreover, expected at this establishment that it would be produced in superior style, scenery, costumes, chorus, orches- tra, ballet, as weil as in the leading sing- ers, and hence the populous assemblage on thi# occasion. Nor was the house in any point disappodated, The cast of Arnold as Count Aru- heim, High as Thaddeus of Warsaw, Peakes as Devilshoo¥, Mrs. C, Richings-Bernard as Arline, aud Annie Mis¢hka as the Gypsey Queen, was proved to be exceliewé. The favorite and widely familiar atra and choruses of this opera were given in a style and spirit whteh brought them a generous and spontaneous welcome without anexception, ‘The ballet under Rita Sangalii aud Mons.

Mr. Peakes, as the leading gypsy, Devilshoot, was unmls*akably the champion of the moun- taineers against tie field, and truly, in his imper- sonation of the daring but sentimental vagabond, he was admirable, Weare gratitied with the assured success of this English operatic season. 1 is a good sign of a wholesome reaction m matters theatrical and musical, although ‘variety is the spice of life that gives it all {ts favor.’ For this evening's Operatic entertainment see advertisement. NIBLO’S GARDEN.—Lotia commenced the fourth week of her successful engagement at this theatre last night as Fire Fly, in the military drama of that name. A crowded house witnessed the perform- ance and warmly welcomed the dashing little comedienne when she made her appearance. The character of Fire Fly is one as suited to Lotta as the character of Fancion is adapted to Maggie Mitchell. From the first scene in the play until her death at the close she carriea her audience with her, never allowing the interest even for a woment to fag. She makes her points most effectively; whether it be with a mischeiyous toss of the head ora saucy movement of the foot, it is ever with the same telling eifect. Her acting 1s the very essence of a harmless deviltry pecuuarly her own, She enters into the spirit of the char- acter of Fire Fly with a zest and warinth as if she believed herself the real char- acter which she acts. full of life, fun, Mischief and dash, she gives an amusing pic- ture and entrances her auditors pighly during the whole evening. The support rendered her by the company Was good. With one or two exceptions the actors were all weil up in their parts. Miss Kate Newton made a charming Venetia, and tue Harrold Cecil of Mir. J. H. 'Yaylor was a calm and careful piece of actiug, Felix A. Vincent made a very good rake and did all that was possible with the part allotted to him, The piece is well put on the stage, many of the scenes being new. “Fire Fly” is good for a run. OvyMric THEATRE.—The ‘Lost Will,’ a domestic drama in three acts, was produced for tue frst time on the boards of this theatre last night. Whether the title of the piece was not suilicientiy attractive or that the absence of the names of any well Known stars on the billa kept the people away, certain it 13 that the curtain rose on an extremely smali audi- ence. The farce of the ‘Lottery Ticket,” which preceded the drama, was a capital prelude to the heavy and sauguinary business that toliowed. Mr. Wm. Holston, as Wormwood, was funny and alarmingly energetic for a lawyer's clerk. Of the drama, it is suilicient to say thac it contains two bloody murders and a highway robvery. To those who adinire that sort of thing on the stage, and are not tired of the old story of virtue and villians con- tending for the mastery, the piece will be very ‘acceptabie. I'he acting Was fully up to the usual average and the scenery was in harmony with the piece Itself. Woop's Musgum.—This establishment, with its countiess wonders and curiosities, its mammoth menagerie of tame as well as wild animais, and its two dramatic performances—one dally and the other nightly—is growing in popularity week by week and 18 fast becoming the resort of families and students, Its dramatic representation, although not of tue highest order, are nevertheless picasing, and latterly are atizacting large audiences. Last evenmg “Yan- keo Ropinson’'—a regular “homespun” comedian of the “down East” stripe—emered upon the last week of his successiul engagement in this city, appearing in twoof bis pecuiar specialties, eatl- tled “A Yankee in China’ and “Nathan Tucker.’? Both pieces are decidedly Yankeeish, full of fun, frolic, dash and amusiug situations, aud, what is more, both are original. 1n the first mentioned piece “Yankee Robinson’? was afforded an excelient op- portunity for displaying his cqmical eccentricities in the character of Eben Pettengill, a Yankee trader im the Celestial Empire, and succeeded in keeping the house im one continual roar. Miss Ulivia @ charming cormedtenne, sustained the réle of Ovoo, @ mischievous Chinese damsel, making @ very bewltching exponent of Celestial feminity, and was warmly applauded throughout the piece in her efforts to please. She possesses an excellent voice, and during the evening sung several ballads, which were invariably reaemanded. The laughable after piece, ‘“‘Natnan Tucker,’’ likewise rinitted Mr. Robinson full scope for indulging in Eis erratic illustrations, Which upon the whole were exceedingly enjoyable. The same Dill will be re- eated every evening during the week, while the 4owsons, Cielia and Jerome, will appear in the bur- lesque of “Aladdin” at the regular matinces, ToNY PasToR’s OPERA HovsE.—This popular place of amusement presented @ variety bill last night highly satisfactory to the numerous audience assembled. There were given songs and dances ‘too numerous to mention” separately, and many of them were encored to the echo. ‘Tony, as usual, oat) 8 few of bis comic songs, and from the manner in which they were received by those present it shows that he has lost none of his popularity, either as @ manager or a performer. Nelse Seymour made his bow also at this theatre, for the first time this season, last night, and won a hearty welcome. The programme of the night was fully carried out, andno mcs ‘Who was present departed other than satis- ed with the entertainment. New York Crrcvs.—The programme of amuse- ments presented at this estadlishment last evening was weil selected and varied, and above all, excel- lently performed, Mr. Frank Mellville shone in his brilliant somersault riding acts, which he performed with great éclat. The principle features of the even- ing were, however, the surprising gymnastic feats on the horizontal bar, executed by the Messrs, Levantine, and assisted by Mr. Conrad as clown. Yhe Arabs went through their wonderful vaulting acts with unusual success, and were warmly ap- plauded, it would almost appear that the approach of cold weather lends extra elasticity to their sinewy limba, The numerous and appreciative audiences by which this entertainment continues to be patron- ized is doubtless the best and most eifective proof that it Bulls the public taste, FAILURE OF THE ITALIAN OPERA, A Ballet Girl Sues James Fisk, Jr. for Fall. ing Into a Trap—Fisk on the Stand—The Academy of Music a Myth—Ffisk ‘Assists’?
