Nanctti—Miss ry’s Reappearance. When eight o’clock arrived last evening the Academy of Music did not look as though an audience remarkable for brilliancy and Bumbers intended to be present, Any misgivings which might have been enter- tained, however, were speedily dissipated. By the time the overture to ‘“Lucrezia Borgia’ Was over almost every seat was occupied, and the usual Space devoted to standees was monopolized. ‘The occasion, as perhaps It is unnecessary to ex- | Pla, was the début in America of Signor Campa- nipt as Gennaro, of Mile. Maresi as Lacrezia and of Signor Nannetti as Alphonso, and the reappear- of Miss Cary as Maffeo Orsini. A somewhat minute dissection of the capabilities of | these singers wil! be found further on. The point to which we desire to refer at present is the fact that just such an operatic importation of youth has | a8 beed made by Mr, Strakosch as was most necded at this time, We respect the Kindness of heart which can continue to lavish applause upon a singer long after his voice has deserted him. The fault is one of those which Jean so much to virtue's side as to catch a considerable degree o¢ virtue’s radiance, But at the same time we sym- ready to appropriate the rdles which in bands that have’ lost their pristine power threaten to become the ghosts of their former selves. This is the kindof work which, if the prom- ise of last might is fulfilled, Signor Campanini is waiting and is qualified to perform. He is young; he has a fine presence; nature has given him a Magnificent organ, which art has already done much to perfect, and, finally, he evinces something of that magnetic spirit which enters into the con- ception of sympathetic acting. London was his first step to reputation, New York will be his second. A portion of the triumph of last night was shared by Mile. Maresi, and this circumstance entities her to the order of con- perusciousne have bestowed upon Campanini ignor Nannetti completes tue trio, to whom youth abd merit justify usin being particularly cordial. For of Miss Cary, in this connection, it is scarcely necessary to speak. She is as old a friend as the few years which she has sung in this country permit her to be, and the brilliancy with which she last evening emphasized her reappearance only made the bond ali the closer. We might add as a potnt by no means undeserving of notice that *Lucrezia Lorgia” was placed upon the stage much more creditably than ‘La Traviata.”’ There was a commendable freshness in one or two of the scenes, and the dresses were less tinselled. more pictur- esque and less conventioual than they have been in the habit of being. The second night of opera 1s, therefore, to be pronounced a success in every way. It was accompanied with enough flowers and encores to lend‘wings to the ambition of the Most aspiring singer. Alter these few words of preparatory compli- ment and explanation we may make a much closer and more minute examination of their merits as artists. ‘Lucrezia Borgia,” while exhibiting many ‘of the worst defects of the puerile sensationalism of the modern Italian school, has an ample fund of strong “points,” so to speak, by which the darkness of this episode in the blood-stained history of the Borgias becomes intensified. In this opera the strongest and most dramatic numbers are Placed side by side with the weakest that may be found in the whole range of the italian school. After the commonplace chorus that greets the audience at the. rise of the curtain Miss Cary (Orsini) furnished the first vocal treat of the even- ing,.a very pleasurable indication of the menu of rarities prepared for the occasion by Mr. Strakosch. This was the profession o! devotion to Gennaro, expressed in the romanza ior contralto, “Nella fatal di Rimini’? Miss Oary surprised even those whe admired, a couple of seasons ago, her. pure, cultivated, equally-balanced and sympathetic voice by the dramatic energy with which she declaimed the words, “Fuggite i Borgia, o Giovanni.” This was the first pleasurable sur- prise last evening, and served as a good introduc- tion to the subsequent triumph of the tenor, basso and prima donna—we name them in the order of merit. Madame Maresi (Lucrezia Borgia) was the next claimant for the suffrages of the public. The first five notes she sang, while contemplating the sleeping Gennaro “Tranquillo el posa,” gave evidence of @ clear, resh voice with that peculiar ring in it that characterizes the ‘dramatic’ prima donna. The succeeding recitative be- trayed a crudeness of method in this the most difficult branch of the lyric art, ‘The aria, “Wom e Bello” was deliciously sung, and confirmed the favorable impression of the purity and freshness o1 the voice. In this aria there were evidences oO! a want of equality in color of tone between the medium and ‘head registers, but ‘hothing could be more satisiactory than the exquisite finish of the execution of the florid measures with which Donizetti adorns the latter part of the Oabaletta. After this came a genuine triumph for another artist. The great attraction of the evening, both in an- ticipation and actual fulfilment, was, of course, the new tenor, Signor Italo Campanini, whose praises have long ago filled the Scala and Drury Lane. When the love-stricken Borgia awakens him and coaxes from him the story of his lie, and until the first aecents of the standard lavorite, “Di Pesca- tore Ignobile,” were heard the house was still as death. Ashe proceeded with the touching narra- tive and the beauties of his voice gradually became developed the conviction of his greatness as an artist grew upon bis hearers. From the lowest note, F, to the highest, B flat im alt, there wasnota break in the autommy of the velvety voice, “Une voir de velours !”” as we heard on ove memorable evening at Her Majesty’s Theatre, London, at the début of Signor Giuglini, in 1856, in the same rdie, was the expression applied to the exquisite organ that lent a new charm to the sweet Donizettian aria last evening. For the first time in many years at the Academy of Music was heard a tenor who could produce diminuendo or crescendo in the highest di petto notes with ease and effect. In the succeeding denunciation of the historic pois- oner by Orsini and his companions, an effectively constructed specimen of concerted music, there Was some reprehensible carelessness shown by the chorus in one or two measures. In the second act another débutant made his bow, Signor Nanvetti (Alfonso), A large, well- founded, sonorous, flexible bass voice 18 a rare thing nowadays, ong suc! Ce organ Nannetti brought into reanisition In the fine arla “Vient, la mia vendetta,” and in the inevitable cabaletta, with which Donizetti always supplements his vocal themes. The great scene of the opera, {tt Which the jeal- ousy of Alfonso, the struggle betweew guilty love and marital fear im Lucrezia’s bosont and the manly pride of Gennaro, are so vividly photo- graphed by the composer, was given in a style that would have been sufficient to save the opera had everything else been worth- less. Of course we missed those grand moments of a Grisi ora Titiens in the broken ac- cents of the crime-laden daughter of the Borgias; but the fresh young voice of Maresi made amends, to @ great extent, ior the lack of dramatic power. Still at times she breathed the sacred fire in the passionate accents of the ‘Oh! a te bada,’’ im which the tiger-like nature of the Borgias breaks forth. When Gennaro is brought in and is addressed with hypocritical accents of friendship by Alionso in the aria “Della Duchessa prieght,’’ memories of Susini and Beretti were brought back in the rich, thrilling tones of Nannetti. Then tol- lowed the magnificent trio, one of the finest thoughts of Donizetti, in which the tragic elements of the opera are concentrated and limned with a Doré luridness. Here Campani ni rose to a pitch of vocal grandeur that amply fulfilled expectation. Every note was full of intense expression, and mingling with the deep tones of Nannettt, and the fresh sympathetic voice of Maresi, the trio was an operatic gem, without a flaw, in the plat The tinging tones of the tenor, even in the ae A fat in alt, in the succeeding duet with Lucrezia, satisfied every- body of the justice of the claims of Campanini asa tenor of exceptional calibre, Miss Cary in the last act made one of the hap Piest impressions during her career on the operatic stage by her rendering of the brindisi, “Ih reto r esser Felici.” To one that has heard De Méric, ebelli-Bettini, Didier, Morensi and a this may seem high praise, but it is deserved. In the death scene Campanini eclipsed even the strong impressions his previous singing and acting pro- duced on the audience. The words “L’estremo, Vestremo, Madre mia, Anelito chto Spér,"’ fell rom his lips in an anguish of tone that quivered with an expression such as no German has uttered since the palmy days of Mario and Ginglint, The chorus was not entirely fauitiess, but was kept In subjection by the conductor, Muzio, as no chorus has been tor years in the Academy, the light and shade of the tragedy, reflected by the orchestra, testified to the same able musical limner. ‘“Lucrezia’ is a dangerous opera to present in this day, . Strakosch has given it with a flavor of those days when there were operatic gia Reopening of the Union Square Theatre— “The Geneva Cross.” The reguiar season of the Union Square Theatre began last night with the production of Mr. George Pawcett Rowe's new play, entitied “The Geneva Cross."" The play opens in the grounds tn front of Le srun’s tactory, near Paris, The time is just previous to the Franco- Prussian war and throughont the = siege of Paris, An international! love story is the drama- tist's theme. This story is simple enough in con- struction, Le Brun isa manulacturer of firearms for the empire. Moineau, his overseer, has been promised his daughter Gabrielle in marriage and @ partnership in the business, Riel du Bourg is @ workman in the factory—a man of supertor attainments, o Prussian, and in reality a secret agent of the German govern- ment. A flerce animosity exists between the over- seer QQd tpo Workman whigh is pot avaved by We facts that Gabriete snows a great partiality for the latter; and after proper explanations Riel obtains the consent of Le Brun to take the place designed for Moineau. During the seige Moineau, as @ French officer, obtains an order that Rie! suall join his command to assist in @ sortie against the enemy. The Prussian then avows his natavity to his wife, and, after a scene, in which she regards him as the spy Moineau had always accused him of being, they are reconciled, and she assists him to escape. The rest is easily told, She is accused of effecting his escape, and Moineau gives her the alternative of renouncing Rie! or dying in expta- tion of the act. As a matter of course, the hus- band at the bead of a Prussian force saves the life of the wife, and the curtain falls upon 80 much of the (pane of the military drama, that it is possible to learn whether they lived happy ever afterwards, The name of the play 8 significant of the badge—the red cross of Geneva—worn by tue people o! all nations in Paris who devotedthemselves to the care of the sick and wounded at that time. The play is not comedy, nor is it either melodrama nor military drama, but it partakes or the qualities o/ all these. In conception the story isexceilent and the plot, & whole, 19 well wrought out. — But | the dialogue needs a great deai of pruning. There | is entirely too much talk, and at times its most magnificent bits of declamation are only high- sounding platitudes, For instance a “little mother’ is introduced to do nothing but taik about the sufferings of Paris, which she does in one almost continuous speech, and does it very badly The piece certainly needed no “little mother,” ant it ts no evidence of great paternity that tt has one. But, aside from these defects, it is an excel- | lent play, full of interest and affording many pathize with the debutant of genius who stands | splendid opportunities for excellent acting, in both the pathetic and the stirring arama. It can- not Jail, On account of its own merits and the effective manner of its presentation, to have a very long and a very successfnl run, Toe cast is strong and well poised. Miss Rose Eytinge, who received an enthusiastic welcome last night upon her return to the stage as Gabrielle, played the pathetic passages with much power, and where her art was less effec- tive she carried ner part through by the aid of her Posplatiy sympathetic voice, Mr. Charles Thorne, Jr., a8 Riel, presented a very manly piece of acting, and won a most enthusiastic re- call after the third act. Mr. Mackay as Moineau, if we may employ a paradox, was overweighted by too light a load. The part is mot suff- ca vig & marked for a man of his remark- able but circumscribed guts. Mr. John Par- selie, who is the “old man’ of the company. is an actor whom we prefer to see in other parts before jaaying him as an artist of great capabilities, Miss emily Mestayer, as the sister of Le brun, played a po that was very good and very old. Of Miss liza Weathersby as Martagon, foster-sister to Gabrielle, we can only say tuat the iragrance of burlesque clings to her still. Mr. Stuart Robson succeeds, as Simon, in gainin, the favor of the audience, but, unfortunately, he carries as much talk as knapsack. Talk, as we have already indicated, is the defect of the play, but as this is easily swept away by the vigorous action of a pruning penci! the operation will leave it one of the best pieces lor popular representation, fresh in theme, in thougnt andin surroundings, that has been produced in a good long time. Mr. Mackay is to be complimented on the periection of his ap- pearance as a French officer. We need scarcely add that the scenery and stage settings were very beautiful, Musical and Dramatic Notes. Mr. J. M, Bellew, the English elocutionist, has arrived in this city and will give his first reading at Hepworth’s church this evening. Mr. W. A, Morgan, who sung with Miss Kellogg at the East Side Association Hall concert, on Tues- day evening, is not Mr, Wilford Morgan, the lead- ing tenor of the Kellogg English Opera Company, although a member of the same troupe. The patrons of the drama area little vexatious occasionally. A ‘Careful Observer” read in the ad- vertising columns of the HERALD on Monday morn- ing that Miss Mary Carr would play Lady Wester- ton in “About Town,” at the Broadway Theatre, and the next day she learned from our notice of the piece that the part was played by Miss Annie Deland. Our correspondent now wants to know who played it. She would have saved herself the trouble of asking if she had gone to the theatre and seen the piece. Miss Carr is sick, and Miss Deland was called upon at the last moment to supply her place, TROTTING AT DEERFOOT PARK. Second Day of the Autumn Meeting— Fred Tyler the Winner of the 2:40— The 2:33 Trot Unfinished. The trotting at Deerfoot Park yesterday after- noon was greatly admired by the spectators, The day was fine and the track in capital condition. Two trots were on the card, the first being for horses that had never beaten 2:40, and the second for horses that had never trotted better than 2:33, The 2:40 race was decided after four closely con- tested heats, but the other one had to be post- poned, as darkness setin before its termination, Five heats of this race, however, were trotied, and more exciting sport was never witnessed at Deer- foot Park. The postponed race will be started at one o'clock this afternoon. ‘The first race had twelve entries, seven of which came to the post. Tiese were John Murphy’s bay mare Lady Pfiter, Dan Delay’s brown mare Lady Woods, J. H. Phillip’s roan gelding Fred Tyler, J. V. Carroll's bay gelding Octavia, J. B. Harrington's black mare Dinah, Dan Mace’s biack stallion Young Fillingham and W, Irving’s bay stallion Bonnie Doon. Lady Woods sold for first choice, Fred Tyler second and then the field, which brought more money than the others combined. Bonnie Doon won the first heat, and the pools were sold without him for the next. Fred Tyler won the second heat, and he then had the call until, just before the start, Bonnle Doon ran into favor, John Doty then taking him in charge. Fred Tyler won the third heat, Bonnie Doon appearing much fatigued at the finish. The fourth heat and race was won by Fred Tyler, Bonnie Doon winning second money and Lady Pfifer the third premium. The second event had five entries, but only three starters. These were H. J. Feek’s bay gelding Clothespin, J. W. Phillips’ bay gelding Mystic and Israel Denton’s black gelding Tom. Clothespin was the favorite over the fleid beiore the start. He won the frst heat, and then Tom made a dead heat with him tor the second. Clothespin was a reat favorite before the start for the third heat; Dut that One was won by Mystic, and things then became mixed; Ulothespin. however, still nad the callin the betting, and aiter winuing the fourth licat he sold for five to one over the field. In the filth heat he broke several times, and, although he cau home @ length in front of Mystic, the judges decided to make @ dead heat of tt on account of the breaking up of Clothespin. It being now nearly dark the judges postponed the race until this aiternoon at one o'clock. ‘Tue following are the SUMMARIES.

A Block of Buildings Threatened with Destruc- tion in the Upper Part of the City. BURNED TO DEATH. A fire broke out yesterday morning on the sec- ond floor of the building No, 1,502 Broadway that caused considerable damage to the surround. ing property. The Names first started in the wain- scotting, and then rushed with wonderful rapidity into the armories overhead and into tne adjoining stores. It is supposed they originated in the ig- niting of the gas, as the pipes were leaking in sev- erdl places, and piumbers were at work in the vi- cinity, The structure in which the fire occurred was originally built for a market, but, being a fail- ure asa buiidmg for that line of business, it was cut up into stores on the ground floor and fitted up for armories on the upper portion, Some of these stores are occupied, but several are without tenants. When the fire was first discov- ered the people in the place endeavored to put it out, but finding the fames growing beyond their | control an alarm was given. This brought several engines to the spot and the Fire Department began to grapple with the dangerous element. During the time that elapsed between the ringing of the alarm and the arrival of the machines the Names INCREASED IN EXTENT AND STRENGTH, and the firemen, when they saw the magnituae of the work before them, sent for more assistance. This was quickly at the required point, and after an hour of desperate labor the firemen saw with satisiaction that the flames were under their control. The police answered the first signal of fire and made a cordon around the burning block for the purpose of keeping off thieves and an inconvenient public. Assistance was lent by the neighboring precincts. When the second alarm was given and daring the time tue fire lasted, the greatest order prevailed. Consider- aole excitement was visible in the private houses in the neighvorhood owing to the proximity of the flames to those buildings. A STRONG WIND was blowing, and if the dames had been allowed to get through the roof of the building to any great extent considerable and alarming damage must certainly nave been done. Too much praise caunot be given the fremen ior the way in which they worked and risked their limbs and lives. Without waiting to look to consequences they rushed tothe points indicated by their o‘icers, and their efforts soon Produced a gratifying result. The police also per- formed their share of the work in 4 praiseworthy manner. Immense crowds of people gathered in the open spaces about the building, outside the police cordon, to watch the course of the Names and speculate on the extent of the disaster. Among the throng were several oid ladies, resi- dents of the neighborhood, who trembled with the fear that the flames would reach their homes. Their doubts were changed toa certainty of secu- rity when they saw the fire checked, and they went back to their boudotrs in evident satistaction. From their starting point the flames reached Nos, 1,490, 1,504 Broadway and 170 and 172 West Forty- filth street, a three story brick vuliding, beiong- ing to R. J. Ford. THE LOs3 upon this house is estimated at $2,500. No 1.490 Broadway was occupied in the first floor by J. Silva, a cigarmaker, who suffered a loss of $1,000; insured or $300, No. 1,492 was unoccupied. Nos, 1,494 and 1,496, occupied by Joseph Keai & Co. as a carriage repository, were damaged to the extent of $500, and were insured for the sum of $12,500. No. 1,498 was unoccupied. No. 1,500 was conducted asa billiard saioon by Charies Silverbrandt, who sustained a loss of $1,000, but was insured tor $8,000, No. 1,502 was occupied by Buil & Gold- macher as a tailor shop; they suffered a loss of $500 and.were insured for $1,500. No. 170 West Forty- flith street, occupied by Lange us a tailor shop, was damaged to the extent of $600; insured for $1,800, No. 172 West Forty-filth street, occupied by Lewis Dacunha, was damaged to the amount of $100; insured for $300. The upper foors oer 4 along over the buildings were used by the Twelft! regiment and the Washington Greys as armories, Both those regiments sustain a loss of about $2,000 each. Several oilicers of the regiments had poner property in the company rooms, but to what ex- vent was not ascertained. Fire Marshal Sbeldon was on the ground during the fire and notitied the several parties interested in it to appear before him to-day. ANOTHER FIRE broke out at noon yesterday ia the taree-story and basement brick building No. 186 Henry street. The first floor of this house was used by Mr. Jonn J. Bowen as a laboratory. He is a manufacturer of liquid extracts and usually carries on a large busi- ness, At the time the fire took place @ quantity of baisam of fir was being purified in lis estavlish- ment. On each side of the stove stood a barrel containing a quantity of this dangerous material One barrel contained the raw balsam, and the other was being used to receive the refined which had passed through the process on the stove. in another corner, at a short distance, was a barrel of alconol, and about the room were other articles of commerce. Mr. Bowen’s son, William bowen, @ lad fifteen years of age, was in the act of taking @ pan oO! the refined balsam off the fire when it Jeli to the floor and instantiy ignited. Almost as quickly as the flames sprang from the vessel dropped by the boy they caught the contents o1 the barrels and in an in- credibly short space of time the whole o1 the room was a tossing sheet of flame. The fire then dashed through the windows of the rear and out through the Woodwork with Irightiui velocity. The thick, heavy smoke made by the burning liquids rushed mto the apartments of the oc- cupants of the upper stories, choking and blinding them. All managed to escape, however, except a Mrs. Selders, who lived on the second floor, It ap- pears that when she realized the condition of afairs she ran to the head of the stairs, where one of the workmen saw her, witi the evident intention of escaping. Whether she grewitrightened at the danger beneath or went back to save some cherished piece of property is not known, but the going back cost her her lue. When the fire got into her apartment and she saw ESCAPE THROUGH THE HOUSE WAS IMPOSSIBLE she went to one of the front windows and called out frantically for heip, Officer Titus, of the Seventh precinct, went to her assistance through an adjoining bouse, but was Seager tng unable to rescue her. He got into the burning building through the skylight, and descended through smoke and flame to the room where the woman was caged. He tound the door barricaded with jeces of furniture and trunks, and tried to push t in, Failing in this, ue made an effort to get through the window over the door, but was again unsuccessiul. Although he continued to cali out to Mrs. Selders from the moment he arrived at the door, he couid not make her under: nd him, and he was finally compelled to abandon the poor woman to her fate. The position of officer Titus was then very critical. Smoke and fire sur- rounded him’ on every side; but he man- aged to get tnrough them and out again upon the roof with great diMcuity. His hair, beard and hands were badly burned, and his uniiorm suttered severely. On his appearance on the roof of the ad- joining house he was hailed by the crowd assem- bled in front of the fire wiih deafening cheers as a compliment to his bravery ana humanity, Seeing the officer was not succeeding, Chief Nash, of the Fourth battalion, procured a iadder and went up to the window from where the woman was scream- ing for help, but before he got to the opening she had fallen back upon the floora victim to the flames, Chief Nash entered the room and found LIFE WAS GONE. All that remained was the biack and burned body. ‘This was removed with ail possible despatch to the Seventh precinct station house, where it re- mained until the Coroner ordered its further re- moval. The boy to whom the accident occurred that caused the disaster ran into the atreet, his clothes on fire. In the excitement and pain he felt he dashed down the street, apparently un- mindful of the danger he was in. Some men stopped him and took him into a drug store, where he was attended to, and alterwards found by the olice, The loss caused to Mr. Bowen's property estimated at $2,500, He is insured for $3, in the Metropolitan Insurance Company. A family named Selliger, living on the upper floor, sutfered @ loss to their furniture of $300, and Mrs, Seiders’ property was damaged to the extent of $250, Coroner Young has taken charge of the burned body, and Fire Marshai Sheldon will hold an in- vestigation into the cause oi the fire to-day.
