ITALIAN OPERA—“F avst."—The popularity of Miss Keilogg’s Marguerite was shown last night to a re- markable degree, Nothing else could have caused the rarely used sign, “Standing room only,’ to be exhihitel at the entrance to tho Academy, or have filed the boxes, parquet and dress circle with the fashion aud beauty of Manhattan, It is, indeed, an extremely rare case in whleh the Irving Place Opera House is crowded to sach an‘ extent, and Miss Kel- loge certainly ceserves al! the credit, for to no other artist ta the casy is unqualifed pralse due, Villani certainly made a good deal of the title rdle, and his Salve dumora narrowly escaped an encore, Yer there was a iack of that passion and reckless love Which produces such an eleciric effect in tie hands of some first class tenors, Miss Keiloge, we are constrained to say, Was aloue worthy of praise, Signor Vullani scemed to Lave made it a pointtocarelully ex- clude allactiag from his roze, aad he waiked through the part With & nonchalance that was positively provoking. Miss Kellogg sang and acted the garden scene, and the iast scene in which the death of Mar- guerite is represented, with @ fervor, naturalness and artisuc nish that places It among the best of her roles. Mme. Laura Himela made her début as Siebel, and a very unsuccessiul and unsatisfactory one it was. ~ Even tne La parlate atamor, in which every coutralto makes some success, was ren- dered by ft in a style that completely annihi- lated any merit in at. We constrained to say that Mme. Himela made a total failure on the occasion of her début, and we trast that she will do better the next tine she appears. Oriandint was the Valentine, and he seemed to be overcome by some unaccountable depression or las- situde, for he did not even atiempt to make any- thing of the part. We have reserved the Mephisto- pheles for tue last, as @ Worse performance ot It has hever been besore our experience lo witness as that of- Siguor Reyna. His very appearance and acting were not in accord with the part, and, except in a few Occasional notes, he never succeeded in keeping in time with ‘he or echestra. We have already spoken oi the quality of his voice and have ho reason to change tat opioton. Signor Nicolao made aad havoc with tbe orchestra and the choruses, for even the well known “Suldiers’ Chorus” was fairly butchered, At the end of this well known smorceau the conductor forgot that there was an ad Ub pause, and brought down his baton before the chorus could recover from their prolonged shout. The score, to add to ail the foregoing, was cut and slased in such a reck+ less manner that to follow it with the score was an utter impossibttity. We are sorry for Stgnor Albites to be obliged to record the nou-success of an Hig Which drew the best house of the season. To isa Kellogg, as we have said before, the only credit ts due for making the part ot Marguerite & rand success and redeeming more than half the lu. efliciency of her surroundipgs.
