Ww THE ENGLISH TURF. Whe Cambridgeshire—Honghton Meeting at BWowmarkst—Prosence of the Prince of ‘“Wates—Cambridgeshire—A Prus sian Horse—Success of the Duke of Hamilton. Lonpon, Oct, 29, 1870, @ufrracing season is rapidiy drawing to a close, and when we have decided the Cambridgeshire and ‘ne Criterion, as we did this week, we begin to look Zorward to the long winter months, when there is pothing for the sportsman to do but speculate lan- guidly on the Derby and discuss the doings of the pastseason, It may be well to state that the Cam- Dridgeshire is the second and shorter of the two great autumn handicaps, of which the other is the Cesarewiteh, run a fortaight ago at the second Oc- tober meeting at Newmarket, while the Cambridge- shire took place on Wednesday, during what is called the Houghton meeting, at the same place. atis van over @ famous course, with a rather steep ascontin the last few hundred yards, and the distance 4s one mile, 240 yards. Very few people besides the regular betting men and wealthy lovers of the sport Were present, for Newmarket 1s far from belng a popular racing place, and the Jockey Club throw out 20 inducoments to the public to come on their gio- Tious heath, where it 1s deligniful to pass an after- noon at this season if the weather Is at all decent Among those who came down from London to ‘enjoy the racing was the Prince of Wales, who has not been on a course for a good many months, and ‘who 18 by no means an enthusiast in turf matters, ‘sho he gambles a litte on the larger ‘‘events,’’ He was now on his way to his country seat at San- rham, in Norfolk, and called in at Newmarket to see the Cambridgeshire. At Newmarket he alwi rides about on a stout little cob, talking ana tangbing with his numerous friends of both sexes, but parcauly taking only slight interest in the acti usiness of the day. He 1s allowed to go about at his own sweet will, the people who frequent she heath having something cise to do than stare at “even princes of the blood, CONTEST FOR THE CAMBRIDGESHIRE. The Cambridgeshire brought to the post the 1a! number of animals that ever started for the race with one exception, when, in 1802, Bathilde won in a eld of forty-three, there being now just one less, Strange to say, the Cesarewitch field of a fortnight ago was also the largest on record, with one excep- on, stranger stili, that exception was of the year 1862, already referred to, ‘The race has for the past Jortnight been the great medium of betting, and on several of the candidates vast sums of money have been invested. The public early selected as first favorite the Prussian horse Adonis, a three-year-old, Weighted at 87 pounds, who ts nominally the propery of Count Renard, the Préiet of the conquere Nancy, but said to belong in reality to the Crown Prince, it | may be remembered that this horse won the Oatland Plats at the last meeting in splendid style, to the tn- tense disgust of those who had backed him for the Cesarewitch, in which race the owner was represented by Fillbustier.

It was becoming somewhat dark before the flag fell, but, 0 far as we could see—let it be remeim- bered that at Newmar«et all the courses are straight, and the spectators group themselves in the neigh- borhood of the judge's chair—the spectacle was a splendid one, the immense field stretching across the feild like an unbroken wall many yerds in length, ‘The start was an excellent one, and When We could make out the colors of the jockey we conid see that tie animals were coming along in three divisious.

Now that the English opera, as weil as Nilsson, Nas left us, and the Philharmonic Society are very sparing about their concerts, we are in almost as destitute a condition in regard to music a3 was Metz tn the provision line before the surrender. Yet no one can deny that we have an appreciative musical public and that true art will always find encouragement here. The cause of the dearth of music this season may be found in the absence of a competent manager. There ts an abundance of the other kind of article around, but nothing to aid the progress of art, Concerig seem to have gone the way of all flesh, and oratorios have followed them. Amid this general stagnation in the musical world we are glad tosee a gieam of hope in those excellent organiza- tions, the Church Music Association (a very unattrac- and Madrigat Club and the Euterpe. Even these are exclusive socteties to some extent, and require broader views and management to deserve a metro- Politan name and position, The main topic in the musical world 18 the establishment of Itallan opera here on the scale of the opera honses ef Europe. Tho difficulties in the way are enormeus but not insuper- able, By Italian opera we do not mean those wretched essays which for years past have brought the lyric drama into discredis, To make it merely the ve- hicle for exhibiting a single prima donna or tenor, with fourth-rate artists, lager beer saloon roystering chorus and an illy supplied orchestra as ‘‘support,”” does not mend matters in the least. To organize Italian opera on the European stanaard requires the removal of certain obstacles and the ald of certafn hitherto unknown materials. There must be a first class company of leading artists, so that the charms of the prima donna’ s voice will not be dispelled by the wheezy cadences of a broken down tenor or the cracked volce of an antiquated basso, One swallow does not make a summer, neither does one prima donna or tenor make an Italian opera com- pany. In the second place, there must be a large, well selected and tractable chorus—an institution so far unknown In the annals of the Academy. The most difficult matter is in the orchestra, as at present the majority of orchestra! players in this city are controlled oy close monopoly wrongfully called the Musical Protective Union. According tothe rules of this organization no member can play in an or- chestra with a non-member, and the pernicious sys- tem of substitutes is legalized. To appreciate the evils of the former rule we can mention a fact in connection with the late season of English opera at Niblo’s, “he regular orchestra of that theatre does not belong to the Musical Pro- tective union, having seceded from tt since its out- rageous attempt to blackmail the managers a few years since. Mr. Hess, the i:npresarto of the Eng- lish Opera Comvination, had engaged for the season a few first class instrumentalists, unfortunately, however, members of the above mentioned society. During the season at Niblo’s these men were obliged to remain idle, or pick up a scanty living by playing at balls and parties, because they dare not sit in the same orchestra with musicians who would not be controled by this Musical Protective Union. There are hundreds of other instances, but this will suffice. Having overcome these obstacles and organized a compiete company, the impresario must next be guaranteed a sufiicient subscription in advance from the stockholders of the Academy and other leading capitalists to enable him to enter the tield fully equipped, Besides this, advanced prices of admiasion are necessary; for Italian opera is a luxury, and whoever wishes to enjoy i¢ must be Wwiiling to pay for it. Two dollars for a seat cannot be expected to reimburse @ manager, when we consider that @ guinea is not thought too much in London, where the expenses are not half so great. Onur public want Italian opera, and we think they are prepared for all necessary expenses; bat it must be presented to them im its enurety. Communication with Europe nowadays ts too easy for an émpresario here to persuade the people of this city that a prima donna alone 1s necessary for a lyric company. In fine, the Italian opera question amounts to this—a good manager and pienty of capital to back him. One cannot expect to pay for a game supp-r at Del- mouico’s the same price as for pork and beans in the Bowery, neither can he hear Itallan opera on the same terms as he does burlesque or pantomime, The dramatic bul of fare for this week 1s singu- larly rich m novelty and variety, A half dozen changes of bill are announced. The sole musical feature of the week is the pro- duction for the first time at the Grand Opera House of Offenbach’s opera, “Les Brigands,”’ fer which vast preparations have been made. Miles. Persint and Montaland are in the principie r'/es, and every- thing that superb mounting and appointments can do to make the opera a success has net been neg- lected.

The Criterion is one of the great two-year-old races, and has the same relation to the Middle Park Plate as the Cambridgeshire has to the Cesarewitch, Some of the finest youngsters of the year were not included in the ileld, notably King of the Forest, Anton, Sterling and Gantelat, and 1 fell to the Duke of Hamilton’s colt General, whom he recently pur- chased at Count de Lagrange’s saie for 3,800 leery or $19,000—a large Sum, but one that is now justifies by his race on Monday last.

New London, ten miles west of here, in this county, ‘Was the scene of @ novel transaciion on yesterday evening, One Dr. J. L. Fuller, @ practising physi- Cian anu jocal preacher, had long been suspected of Ahoiding sweet converse with one Sarah Stevens, a way widew of about forty-five years of age. ‘Ihe wife of Dr. Fuller, who, by the way, is a very esti- miable lady, became jealous of them some two years ago, and by reason of said jealousy became in- sane, and has been for near two years under treatment at the Insane Hospital. About two months since she was returned home restored, aud, in company with Sheriff Taylor, went to her residence. Her Husband refused to let her remain, and she was forced to seek a home with her married diaugliter. On last evening she went to the home of her husband for the purpose of seeing her children. ‘There are flve remaining at home. Upon appearing at the door she was ejected by the brutal husvand and her package of clothing kicked by him from the doorstep. The neighbors, upon hearing the noise, railied, and upon learning the cause took the gentleman aside, and, after some pretty rough treatment, stripped him naked, save his pantaloons, and treated him to a@ coat of tar and feathers.

Aromantic Irish drama by the irrepressible Bou- cicault, called “The Rapparee,” will be produced this evening at Niblo’s with a cast, of remarkable strength, comprising such artists as Mrs. Clara Jennings, Miss Virginia Buchanan, and Messrs, Mark Smith, Frark Mayo, Shewell, Bowers, Ham- iiton and Fitzgerald. The plot 1s highly sensa- tional and interesting. The scene ts latd on the western shores of Ireland, in the year 1691, at the time the Irish-French army of James II, surren- dered to the Anglo-Dutch troops of William of Orange. The Rapparees were guerilias, and the ter- ror of the Williamites. Their leader, Roderick O'Malley (Mr. Mayo), 1s in love with Grace O'Hara (Mrs. Jennings), daughter of the President of Con- naught (Mr. Fitzgerald). A rival appears, in the person of Ulick McMurragh (Mr. Shewell). The course of true love, after its usual lack of smooth- ness, ends in the death of the villain McMurragh and the union of the lovers. There are three par- ticularly strong scenes in the play—the “putfin; hole,” &@ phenomenon peculiar to Ireland, an caused by the rising of the tide in the honeycombed caverns by the sea; a thrilling fire ettect following the blowing up of O’Malley’s castle, and @ duel to the death, dla “orsicen Brothers.” ‘The many patrons of the Fifth Avenne theatre will learn with regret that this is the last weck of the Teigning favorite of this season, “Man and Wife.”’ A seventy nights run for ai opening piece, when we reflect on the store of untouched wealth im Mr. Daly’s r¢pertoire, 13 indeed encouraging.

Miss Lina Edwin, tu accordance with her desire to furnish her patrons with novelties of the best kind, annouuces the first production in this city of Craven's comedy of “Billiards,” in which Leting- well will play his original character of Sam Sample. There 1s no doubt that the day of tragedy, murder, 6e- duction, suicide and such horrors 1s passing away on the American stage, and pleasant comedies, illustra- tive of every day ie, are now eagerly sought after by the public. “silliards” is ag much a New York play as if its scene were laid here. It is the old story of the industrious and idie youth told in a pleasant manner and adapted to the present day. *‘Romeo Jailer Jenkins” still rematuxs on the bill. Mrs. Lander plays au adaptation of Legouve’s “Cnarlotte Corday” at the Fourteenth street theatre to-night, mm which she will sing the “Mar. seillaise.” Such a play is eminently appropriate at the present day, when the French nation are bat- tling in a nobler and holler cause than that which counted Marat and Robesplerre as its leaders. This eminent actress has not met with the encourage- ment that her talents demand, and the patronage of the public has been rather liraited. Management has a great deal to do with bringing around such a state of affairs. On to-morrow week Mr. Jeiferson will reach the hundredth night of nis matchless performance of Rip Van Winkie at Booth’s. Hew lar he purposes to continue It beyond that date is a matter known to him and the management alone.

THE ENGLISH STAGE. Consolidation and Speculation—Madame Ce- leste at the Adelphi—Alone, After Twenty= five Years—Whuat is on the Boards—A New House—Opera Boaffe—Personalties, New Projects and ProfiteCharges for Admis- sion—American and English Tariffe—Spicy Letters and Debate. A] E of Irish lity and may believe Inaced as poor L sxpon, Oct. 29, 1870, In England, at all events, political affairs have rarely prospered under a coalition Ministry. Whether the aifairs of the theatrical world will have better luck under such a system of government re- mains to be seen. Anyhow, the experiment has been made, and that, too, on no small scale. Mr. F. P. Chatterton, the lessee of Drury Lane, has already entered into partnership with Mr. B. Webster for the management of the Adelpui and Princess's theatres as well. If Mr. Chatterton had as many hands as Briareus he would henceforward have enough to keep them all busy. To ride three horses at the same time, to sing three different tunes simultaneously or to live harmontously in the house with three wives, were tasks hardly less dif_l- cult than for the same man to manage three theatres at once, even though he huve the assistance of so experienced a veteran as Mr. Webster. Mr. Chat- terton has succeeded more than passing well at the National theatre, where the play of “Amy Robsarv’ fills the house from the floor to the roof-tree every night; but he can ecarcely hope to have bumpers at all his three houses. All classes of playgocrs, however, will rejoice at the success (should it succeed) of the new enterprise, Mr. Chatterton being popular for his genial manners and enterprising spirit, and Mr. Webster for his rare skill asan actor, Madame Ce- leste and Mr. Webster had been fast friends for a quarter of a century, but they quarrelled. Birds in in their little nests agree, because if they did not they would “fall out; but actors are not so pacific. Indeed, the quarrels of actors would make quite as edifying a subject for a bulky octavo as the qnar- rels of authors, respecting which the elder Disraeli writes so benignly. So Mr. Webster and Madame Celeste drifted away one from the other, and eleven years have elapsed since they interchanged a word. Now they are friends once more, and let us hope that the reconciliation will noi prove a male sarta amicitia, The return of Madame Celeste to the Adelphi, the scene of her former triumphs, attracted an Immense audience. The play was Mr, Buckstone’s “Green Bushes,”’ in which Madame Celeste created a great sensation twenty-five years ago. Kheu fugaces! All the other actors in the original cast have van- ished from the stage of life; Wright, Selby, Fitz- william, 0. Smith and Yates have all disappeared. Celeste alone remains hearty and vigorous as ever, as though time had passed her like a ship at sea. On Saturday night no sooner did the audience catch a glimpse of her crossing the log bridge in her well- remembered costume as Miami, the jealous huntress of the Mississippl, with feathered hat, high bus- kins and a iapelled rife slung across her shoulder, than they burst into an en- thusiastic shout of applause. She played quite in her old style, with her usual regard to statuesque attitude and impressive gesture, but with a voice if possible more foreign than ever—for the longer she livea in England the more incapable she appears of speaking Engiish. Her engagement 1s professedly limited to twelve nights, but as she draws well she will probably coutinue to perform for some nights longer. But she is said to have finally determined to retire from the stage within the next few months, THE ADELPHI. During the recess the Adelphi has been prettily redecorated; but the female attendants who, with- out fee or reward on the part of the public, used to discharge their duties as box-keepers with such quiet and civil efficiency, have been (the more’s the pity) removed, and in their place we have ammals of the other sex—men, wretched men—who run abeut as if they Were playing cricket, make no end of a fuss, and jook at you with a gaze—pecnilar to London box-keepers—as though they expected you to put your hana in your pocket and give them a shilling as oiten as your eyes mect theirs, PRINCESS At the Princess's the coali ion have Comma ces bill consisting altogether of M ‘aiconer’s ee o’ Day” and Mr. A.

An over-wrought anxiety to adapt the draina to the superfine tastes of a London audience has induced Mr. Edwards to be at imfinite pains to remove from the work ‘every trace of impropriety,” but in this attenpt to puil up the weeds he has too often extirpated the flowers as well. He has exorcised the spirit of haughiiness and the spirit of wit by the same ingenious operation, Mr. Edwards’ play, Loweyer, has the ag untage of a very spirived and finished performance in some of the principal characters, Mrs. Herman Vezin acting splendidly as Clothilde, and Mrs, John Wood, Mr. ‘ren, Mr. Lionel Brough and Mr. Dan Leeson being also pro- vided with parts well sulted to thelr talent, and to which they do full The character of Fer- nande, however, whi Xacts brilliant ability and refined style in the representative, 18 sadly under- played, and the genueman who impersonates the Marquis, apart of the highest importance, 1s “all at sea,” A NEW HOUSE, A new and excecdingly elegant theatre, to be called the Opcra Comique, has been constructed in the Strand, from the designs of Mr. F.

How little could the hermits who dwelt of yore near this sparkling spring, leading lives there like its tide, ‘as blameless and as pure’? have foreseen the swarming crowds, the roaring trafiic, now to be found upon the site of their once tranquil retreat ! How much less could they have foretold the coming of aday when French actors would sing and caper where the peal of the Angelus and the matin and vesper songs were the only sounds that tell upon the ear. Yet that day has come, marvellous though it seem. Priest and acolyte have vanished from the scene, and in their place we are to have the immemorial Mile. Dejazet and a company of Gallic layers, Who have had to run for thelr lives from Paris. FRENOH PLAYS. We have already in London more English theatres than pay working expenses, French plays are found to prove adequately remunerative for a few weeks in the height of the season, but they seldom have a longer spell of prosperity. Anyhow, the new les- sees, of whom two—Messrs, Lesiie and Norton—are Americans, deserve great praise for their plucki- ness in venturing upon 80 novel a project, They may be safely advised to Keep as much as possible to opéra bouge, which always draws better in Lon- don than French dramas. The performances on the opening night wall be purely dramatic, M. Victorlen Sardou’s comedy “Le Pré St. Gervais’? being the piece de résistance; but if the appellation of the thea- tre is not to be a misnomer, nor its prospects of suc- cess merely visionary, the performances must be op- eratic; for such alone will pay. GENERAL ITEMS, Miss Henrietta Hodson, who on assuming the Management of the Royalty theatre, promised to institute a new and better order of things at that dingy establishment, seems likely to “stick.” She has brilliantly redecorated the auditorium, which now looks exceedingly bright and fanciful, but the business en the stage is of the trashiest descripon. ‘The withdrawal} of the dancing license from the Alhambra and Highbury Barn continues to be a sub- ject of earnest discussion in theatrical circles. There is no denying that the Barn is @ “horrid nuisance.” ‘The rank vulgarity, not to vay indecency, of the en- tertainments there combined with the “mohawk- isin’? of the guests, who on their way home used to disturb the peace of the surrounding neighborhood by their uproarious frolics, combined to render the Barn one of the most detestable places in London. ‘rhe Alhambra was a place of a very diferent char- and the feeling that to include it in the same tegory of condemnation was an act of unrighteous severity gains ground daily. CHARGES AND THE TARIFFS. A hot discussion on the subject of the prices of ad- mission ut theatres has been going on for some days past in the columns of a@ morning paper, Mr. Boucl- cault advocating a lower tariif, while the managers are still for high charges. Max. Boucicault contends that the admission fees should be divided into classes—the first at two shillings and the second one shilling each—which, he states, is the custom at Niblo’s, Booth’s and throughout the United States, ‘This statement has provoked many rejoinders, One correspondent writes:— A seat in the stalls, dress circle and upper circle costs $150 (bs. Tod. sterling, wt all the leadiag New York theatres, and that the lowest sum taken in exchange for a place at Hooth’s Ja fifty conta (1s. 10364. sterling), so that the theatrical tariff in America is higher thaa that adopted by the Loudon mana- gers, Another says:— I should not care to have aseat ata first claus American theatre, such as Booth’s, Niblo's and Wallack’ Y York; the Globe (Chas, Fechter, manager) and Boston thea- tre, in Boston, that I only paid ‘two shillings for. At any of the’above mentioned theatres you could not obtain a good In the stalls or dress circle for less than four shillings or shillings, and sometimes {tis even eight and ten shil- T have now the prices of admission before me of the theatre, and they are as follows:—Admiasion, two shillings; dress circle, reserved, two shillings; orchestra and parquet circle (stalls), four shillings; balcony, four shillings; private boxes from one to two guinens, according to loca ton, Mr. Howard Paul has entered the arena and gives the genera! rate of admission to the American thea- tres at double that mentioned by Mr. Boucicault, with an addition in many houses for reserved seats. With regard to the actor's remuneration Mr. Paul states that the stock actor’s salary is about double in America what it is In England; “but,” he adds, “when the increased cost of living, the high price of wardrobe, &c., are taken into consideration, I doubt if the American actor 1s much better off than his Eug- lish brother.” One of the most remarkable letters published in the course of the controversy is trom the pen of Mrs, John Wood, of St. James’ theatre, who dashes into the fray with feminine fervor. One passage from her letter will be enough to show in rll nettlesome @ style she attacks the foe, 1t” reads:— ‘With, doubtless, every intention to be sincere, Mr. Boucicault as 0 ead habit of drawing upon his imagination for his facts, and fancying that a thing must beso because he wishes itto be so. Why so many words shouid be wasted upon his theory of the prices of American theatres—uniess you are all chailing him—I cannot understand. His statement that two shillings, English, is the price of stalls in New York is simply absurd, For several years I was the manageress of the Olympic theatre in that metropolis, and 1 can afirm with authority that so low a price was never charged. But I know Mr. Boucicault go well that I can easily trace the twist of his mind in regard to this matter. Loox at the pro- grammes of the London theatres for the coming season and you wiil find bis name omitted from them all. Naturally Mr. ate of affairs, and b 0 Princess’ with @ cheap opposi- fon. It me, and Ihave scen him play’ lt on Doth aides of the Atlantic wit own dis. h the same reault—his comfiture. In New York he used to talk al of the London theatres; in London he talks about the cheap- ness of the New York theatres. The skies change, but not the story. He means to be practical, but is only visionary. And so the war progresses, PERSONALS, Mr. A. Harris will open Covent Garden at Christmas with a grand pantomime to be called “The Sleeping Beauty, or Harlequin and the Spiteful Fairy.” ‘rhe Lord Chamberlain has forbidden the dancing of the “Cancan’’ at any of the London theatres. Mr. Mitchinson, the well known pantomimist of Drury Lane, died on the 20th inst, Mr. Byron has given his new play, which was originally called “The Last Shilling,” the name of “An English Gentleman,” in consequence ol there being a drama already in existence with the former ee Of course there could not be another last shil- ing. Miss Herbert, late of St. James’ theatre, is suffering from typhoid fever. Mr. Wilkie Collins is now engaged in adapting his work of “No Name” for representation. It has been accepted by Messrs Webster & Chatterton fer early reduction in November at the Princess’ theatre. ir. S. F. Rowe will sustain the character of Captain ragge. One of the saddest circumstances connected with the death of Mr. Michael Balfe is that it should have attracted go little attention. The author of the “The Bohemian Girl” and of @ long list of English operas which enjoyed unbounded popularity in their day and contained arias, or, as our forefathers were content to call them, ‘tunes,’ which are probably destined fora like immortality to that of “Home, Sweet Home,” or “The Last of Summer,” has cere away “unwept, unhonored and unsung.’’ uch if fame ! is a very old London and American Theatres. To THE EpIToR OF THE LONDON TELEGRAPH:— I do not think that the replies to Mr. Boucicault’s letter in reference to Englisu and American theatres are at all just to that gentleman. I have no per- sonal acquaintance with Mr. Boucicault, but as an American, and one thoroughly conversant with the theatres there, I wish to state what I know to be tacts, Mr. Bouctcault 1s correct in many of his statements. I have before me a file of recent Ameri- can playbills and theatrical advertisements. The leading theatres in the principal cities in the United States charge for the best seats one dollar and filty cents, next one dollar, then fifty cente—that 1s, six shillings, four shulings and two shillin, That is the very highest price. Many of the leading theatres only charge for best seat oné dollar, or four shillings English money. The second class, or variety theatres, charge seventy-five cents, fifty cents and twenty-five cents, That 13 the tariff In the chief cities, such as New York, Boston. Philadelphia, &c. In the large interior towns, such as Buffalo, the prices are less. These prices, at a first glance, do not seem an! lower than the leading theatres charge here; but must be taken into consideration that the charge for aticket in America covers everything. There are no fees, neither for booking, programme, nor any other exaction. But the most important view, and one that seems to have been entirely overlooked in this controversy, is the relative value that theatrical rices of admission bear to other things. Every- hing else in America is at double what you wouid pay for the same article here, and even more. An ordinary suit of clothes in New York, ana made by & good tailor to order, costs seventy-five dollars, or nearly fifteen pounds; a first class suit one hundred dollars, or nearly twenty pounds; @ good silk hat ten dollars, and everything in proportion—kid gloves two dollars anda half and three dollars a air (that is, ten and twelve shillings), board at a Brat class hotel four dollars a day, and at some five. Now, considering these facts, I maintain that the charges for admission to American theatres are much cheaper than the prices charged here. As re- gards Mr. Boucicault’s other statements, such as the high puce paid to artists and tne fortunes uccumu- lated by the Peete managers, they are perfectly correct. Nearly allof the principal managers are men of wealth. As to the artists who have made a fortune, their name is legion. Thave a file ef Americaa playbills and advertise- ments at my Office, which I should be happy to show any person doubting the trath of this letter. Apolo- gizing for the length of the above, I remain, sir, yours respectfully, H.
