Emma Albani in\Le Sonnam- bulla.” Last night was one of those gaia occasions at the Academy of Music that seems to ‘bring oat the entire operatic public. A young American prims donna, who left her native shores some #ix years 8goin the forlorn hope of becoming an secom- plished and successful opera singer in Europe, and who gained her object in the most decided manner, returned to show her countrymen the result of her venture by practical tllus- tration. The name and fame of Emma Albani bave long since reached ua trom trustworthy sources, the unanimous veriict of the moss critical People in Europe, and naturally anticipations on this side of the Atiantic were raised to the highest pitch. They were not disappointed, Her success was of that kind that may be juatly termed artistic { in the real sense of the word. So many American girla essay the same course and return without gaining the desired goal that we have latterly be- come sceptical on the subject, deeming that in the majority of cases injudicious friends, bad advice and worse vocal train. ipg in Europe tend to destroy whatever talent those aspirants originally possessed. But this is a glorious exception to the general rule, and New York last night confirmed the verdict of Lon- don, St. Petersburg, Paris and Italy. At the end Of the opera the young prima dorna, not long out of her teens, was called before the curtain seven umes, the house unanimously joining In an out- burst of applause, the ladies in the boxes waving their handkerchie(s and the gentlemen uniting in | @ volley of “‘bravos|’” The most melodious opera of Bellini, “La Son- nambnia,” will never lose its attractions witn the | public, although it may be considered in a com- Darative sense of the word asa one rdle opera, for, excepting a few pretty airs for the tenors and | one for the basgo, the honors belong to the prima donna. Amina aiter Amina appears, but still the attraction of the opera never ceuses, In London | they have bad Pasta (the original Amina), Mali- bran, Persian}, Viardot Garcia, Romer, Jenny Lind, Gasster, Patti and Martmon, and in ‘this city the following artists have essayed the rdle:—Tedesco, | Boslo, La Grange, Tregzzolini, Sontag, Piccolomini, | Kellogg and Di Murska, The interest in the simple | story and the delight in the continuous flow of | melody save this work from being consigned to | the tomb of the Capulets, as has been the case with Bellini's setting of ‘Romeo and Juliet” and maby others of his works, It is now avout forty- four years old and still retains its popularity. When the joyous belle of the Swiss village first S@ppeared in that ecstasy of song in which @ betrothed maiden, without a cloud to mar her bd es would naturally indulga, | and which Bellini nas illustrated in the most dell- | cious manner in the cavatina, “Come per me serena,” and in the succeeding ‘“Sovra ilsen laman il poga,” the aympathetic voice and pertect vocal school of Mile. Aioani were at once revealed. Her voice {8 of light caliore, but so so!t and velvety in timbre, go readily respondent to each phase of pas- | sion and expression, so even in tone throughout | Its registers Ke 3 one See a that her | Uy sitive charm, ‘The short duet with ane thaying bs Bétrothar, Was delivered | With faultiess expression. In the next act, when @ {8 surprised in the Count’s room by the ie istrionic abilities of Mile. Albant | were brought insg requisition. As an actress her stage presence, beaut? aud graceiul style combine aire effect toascene of this Age. The be- wilderment of Amina, resultii? jrom finding herself im a strange bedchambddr, dare } which she had wandered in her sfdap, the realzation of the equivocal position | im which she had innocently placed herself, and her despair at the reprouches of her betrothed, were delineated by Mile. Albani with # vividness and power worthy of the dramatic stage in some Of ita best phases. Before the arrival of the vil- lagers there 1s a short recttative by Amina, a sort of dream of love, which waa interpreted by Mile. Alban! with rare sweetness of expression. Tne | words “Elyino, abbraciami, alfln sei mo” have | never beiore recetyed @ more touching or pas- | sionate rendering. But in the last scene, the Joyful awakening to love and bliss after such @ fearful dream, the prima donna achieved her chiefest triumph. We have heard a | dozen Aminas, Many Of the names we Dave men- | toned above being among the number, but we have never listened toa more thriliing, expressive rendering of the “Al! non crede mirartt,”’ than last night. The beauty of the voice of the young | prima donna shone forth to the best advantage in | this ‘morceau, and there was a tinge of sadness | veiling it which made it still more charming. | The ecstasy which fills the heart of the viliage Malden when she realizes to the fullest extent the reconciliation with her betrothed, and which is so | aptly conveyed in the final air, “An! non giunge,” was interpreted with such exceeding brilltancy and finisn by Mile. Albani that the house rose at her and the opera closed a8 an unbounded triumpn for her, The chorus and orchestra were admirabie last evening, thanks to the director, Signor Muzio, and the rdves of Eivino, The Lount, Lisa and Martha Were very inadequately filled. “Ruy Blas’ will be | presented im Brooklyn this evening, with Poten- | tint, Cary, Uarpl, Del Puente and Fiorini in the | cast, and on Friday Mlle. Alban makes her second | appearance as Lucia, one of the best of her rdtes, Wallack’s Theatre. AD adaptation of Uctave Feuiliet’s drama, “Tho Romance of a Poor Young Man,” was produced at this house last night with gratifying success, It 1g due to the management to say that the success ‘was well deserved, and that nothing that could be done to insure it was left undone. The play was mounted with a completeness and care unusual even in Wallack’s and with all the old taste joined to the new richness, In the scene of the ruin of Elfin considerable artistic power was displayed and we do not remember to have seen a better | moonlight effect produced on any stage. If it has | @ defect, it 18 the arrangement of the tower from which Manuel leaps. 1t is unnecessarily high. The dramatic effect of the leap gains a little in sensationalism at. the expense of the | force of the situation, which ts broken | by the scuffling scene on the steps leading | to the platiorm. Perhaps the pubiic do like the sensation of the high leap, but we think this aa- vantage 18 too dearly purchased by breaking the intensity of the passionate scene between the | lovers, But this is a matter of opinton and perhaps | the management knows best what pleases the | ublic, ‘Ihe play as produced last night was effec- jive in @ high degree. Unitke most adapta- tions from the French, it nas gained | something in compensation for what it nas lost in | transiauion. The dialogue, though bright and full | of dash, is not equal.in point of polish and nea‘- ness to the original, but it has a broud humor iw- ressed upon itn exXchange—a humor that is tel!- Ing, though not very squeamish sometimes. The tendency to replace comedy by farce, which 18 80 strong a feature or Ameri- can works, whether adaptations or originals, lg exemplified in this by the introduction of a Mme. Laroqae, who weeps Erecon nearly all the time she is on the stage. It would improve tne play to dry her tears @ little. Mr. Montague and Miss Dyas, on whom the chief weight of the piece falls, were cordially re- ceived on their appearance. Mr. Montague } Was, evidently, still suffering from his accident and looked decidedly weak. .His periormance of the rdve of Manuél quite confirmed the good opin- fons that were formed of nim on nis first appear- ance, notwithstanding that he played under very unjavorable conditions, The Marguerite of Miss yas was marked e usual excellence and admirable acting, a looked upon as assured. Mr, John Gilbert as Dr. Demarest, and Miss EMe Germon as Mme. Aubrey, did not have as much scope for the display of their talents as could be desired. 1t is the iaull of the authors, we suppose, who do not expect to find 80 much talent compressed into one company. We regret that the lateness of the hour at which the curtain ieli renders @ more extended notice impossibie. A Novel Musical Entertainment. Mr. J. N. Pattison, who now occupies the posi- tion that Gottschalk once held, among the first of American pianists, has designed & novel and inter- eating style of entertainment, a lecture on piano music with copious illustrations, such 48 only such @n eminent virtaoso can give, The order of per- formance combines @ great deal of valuabfe tn- struction with unalloyed amusement. The first lecture may be epitomized as follows: —Intro- duction; the purpose and intent of composers; analogy between music and painting; the earlier Masters as represente id embodied in Handel (plano), grand tngue tn & minor, George Frederick handel; the sonata and symphony as carried to their highest perfection in Beethoven (piano), ‘and sonata in 0 Lt minor, ‘*Moonlight,” op. "7, L. Von Beethoven; the modern school of per- fect technique as exemplified in the Thaiberg- Liszt schoo) (piano), “La Campanella” (the Littic Bell), Etude de Paganini, Frana Lisat; the lyric | psa of music as instanced by Chopin (piano), jocturne, op. 387, No. 2 ederic Chopin; the dreamy mental atmosphere of the South as idealized by Gottschalk (piano), “Marmures Koll- ens,” Louts Moreau Gottschalk; natural phenom- ena portrayable in musio (piano); the “storm Petre)” (descriptive fantasie), J. N. Pattison; Ciosing remarks. This will give a good idea of the | nature of the first lecture, which wu de delivered in this city in @ week or go, The rest of the series of lectures devoted to Mozart, Mendelssonn. Bach, Schumann, Scariattl, Schubert and other great piano writers, The idea is au exceilent one.

The audiences Miss Charlotte Cushman is at- tracting to Booth’s Theatre are the most remark- able in point of numbers, culture and fashion ever seen within the walls of that house. The advance demand for places gives indication that the | closing nights of the eventful engagement will express the measure of respect and apprectation held by the American public for the great tragic queen who, by voluntary abdication, is now about to descend from a throne she has so long occupied with undisputed sway. NEW ORLEANS. Republican Change of Tactics—The White League Leaders Not To Be Ar- rested Until After the Election, NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 21, 1874. The rumor that the radical authorities Propose to defer the arrest of the leaders of the White | League in this city until after the election quiets | people somewhat; but the democrats say they are Teady to submit to the United States authorities. The conference between the rival parties has ter- minated without results, General Emory, however, has no tear ofa disturb- ance, unless the appearance of large bodies of} White Leaguers and United States marshals at the | polls causes conficts to require tedera) interfer- ence. If so, he says, “somebody will get hurt.’ Arrangements as to the Advisory and Returning Boards. New ORLEANS, Oct. 21, 1874, The failure to agree and the final adjournment ofthe Conference Committees at 11 o'clock last night in no way impairs the agree- ment heretofore made, except as to the | Advisory Board, which can do nothing | without an umpire, Colonel Packard stated to-day that the con- | servatives would be given two members of the | Returning Board, as per tne original agreement.

WARREN AND THE SPIRITS. ce ‘ Interesting Manifestations of Superhu- man Power and Intelligence. There was a great deal of tun in one of the upper rooms of the Graphic building yesterday aiternoon. A sturdy-looking medium from Bos- ton—Mr. T. Warren by name, 80 far as human ap- | pellation goes—presented himself, accompanied by @ spiritualistic orator, and desired to prove that his intercourse with the spirtt world was of a | nature which could not fail to convince every | The Messrs. Goodsell accordingly placed a room at the disposition of Mr. Warren, wherein he could communicate with the spirits, above and below, and at the same time convince @ number of ladies and gentlemen that his gources | of information, to say nothing of a lot of super- Matural feats, could be attributable solely ] to a power which, if not appreciated in a physical | polnt of view, must inevitably be traced to the | revelatious in 4uat unknown world that lies be- yond the grave. Warren, by the way, is a smart looking fellow, with a humorous twinkle tn the keenest of black eyes, while nis external appear- ance indicates that he is no enemy to a porter- house stake. It was evident, at all events, that | he had not recently slept in any desolate church- yard without the usual comforts that open air re. | pose usually su; tg to the ingolsitive mind of | any intellectu: ton. It was Mr. Warren’s in- tention to give nce on the Graphic premises, to demonstrate to numerous unbelieving Thom- ases that spirits could be obtained at any hour of the day to respond to the tastes and sen- timents those invited to participate. Mr. Warren displayed some astounding feats, or rather an extraordinary familiarity with a | number of lively and vigorous goblins whose | aay in guitar playig was equalled only by the | aba with which they overturned things gen- erally. It is but fair to state that Mr. Warren was securely bound to a chair in a dark room, by spiritual influence, he himself admitted, and that while thus entranced, like Barney Willams in the “Fairy Circle,” the ghosts on twelve hours’ leave raised “Old Harry’ in the room. ‘Irue, Mr, | Warren perspired @ great deal, and go did Mr. G. | FP. Train, The latter gentleman, with a lady, took the serious task of remaining’ in the room with | the medium while the spirits were hovering | about, and his explanation to the almost petrifie assemblage, when admitted to the mysterious chamber, Was not destitute of those brilliant Mights of fancy for which the once trrepressibie George was 80 renowned. One of Mr. Warren’s best feats, or rather one uf the most marvellous and generous acts of the spirits, was to loosen a pait of Handcuffs of his wrists, which had been securely locked; but judge of the surprise of the bewildered spectators when, on rushing into the dark chamber suadenty lighted up, the medium appeared to hug involuntarily a huge supporting beam in the middie of the room! nor could he be released until the keys o1 the handcuffs were pro- duced. The experiments were altogether o interesting character, and many left the building not kaowing what to make of them. THE WASHINGTON SAFE BURGLARY, Efforts to Stay the Proceedings of the Court—Importent Points Raised and Decided. WASHINGTON, Oct. 21, 1874. The Criminal Court this morning resumed the consideration of the sale burglary conspiracy case. Mr. Hinkle, counsel for Whitley, read the first plea in abatement raised by him yesterday. to the effect that the Grand Jury which found the alleged true bill against bis client, along with others, was not legally constituted, the jurors not having been selected in accordance with the law. Judge Hamphrey said he would treat this plea a8 nought, because of its duplicity, and be- cause it did not present & single question npon which @ direct issue on the demurrer could be had. Other pleas were read questioning the mode of drawing jurors and asserting that tne law required the summoning of twenty-three grand jurors, whereas oniy nineteen were in attendance. The Court sustained the demurrer against the plea on the ground that the plea did not set Jorth that only nineteen persons were summoned, The law did not require that every person serving as & grand juror should appear. If this were so the Court could never have a tull grand jury. Sev- eral of the points raised were presented for argu- tnciuding the question that three of the @ not legally qualified to serve, rs, and that the names were not drawn from the box in pursuance of law. Assistant Attorney General Hill said he would stake his professional reputation on the assertion that the law did not require jurors to be taxpay- ers. He expressed the anxtety of the government to proceed with the trial of these cases without unnecessary delay. The jadge remarked that the law required every accuséd person to be tried according to the forms of Jaw, €nd.80 far as he wes advised no person should be tried otherwise. Tne Judge said the issue was joined as to the drawing from o box of names of yorwene to serve as jurors, The names were rawn by KB. J. Middleton, Assistant Clerk of the Court, and this woula de shown by the evidence. Mr. vidge, for Harrington and Williams, with the consent of Hinkle, amended the plea so as to make It appear that the Clerk of the Court did not, in the presence of the Commissioners, break the seal of the box publicly and draw therefrom the Daines Of the persons 60 serve as jurors, The Judge, tor the reasons civen, sustained the demurrer. Mr. Davidge, in behalf of Messrs. Whitley, Har- rington and Williams, filed exceptions to tao ruling of the Court, Tue Judge said the record would show when read that tho accused nad been arraigned and pleaded not guilty, ‘The jury was then called, ‘The Judge, tn response to a suggestion of Mr. Davidge respecting the selection Cp cad said he! auld he governg by Wye courgg ef Judes Orancd | | of the James, and so on through the various Kt ; rebel | sels come through and attack them. | bore the imputation of a futile and costly work, | eral’ Rufus Ingalls, Hon.

He said:— “SOLDIERS O¥ THB ARMY OF THE JAMES—The time 1s now come when some word should be said of your deeds,’ This was the opening sentence of & general order of one of your commanders, 1s- sued ten years ago the present month. What was then @ partiai and fragmentary address to the army alone, | propose now to enlarge and tlus- | trate, that the services of the Army of the James | to the country may in some degree receive (hat ful and just recognition which the patriotic valor of ita soldiers deserves, He then gave | @ eketon of tne organization of the army, the plan of the campaign around Richmona, the successful sarprise march of the army Movements and actions down to the close. In giving his sketch of the Operations of the army the speaker possibly omitted the names of ofticers lest the omission of some particular movement or | deed might be construed into a censure on aj individual. In concluding General Butier said, it not @ record of which we may well be proud? Without detracting anything irom the gallant operations of other urmies, is there any better record to be shown in the same space of time by | any other equal number or numbers of men? Let | me add one thing further, and the record ts then made up and concluded. The Army o/ the James | never had a disaster and never suffered a defeat | when more than a single brigade was engaged.” In | the course of his address Genera} Butier vindicated the cutting of Dutch Gap Canal as undertaken to | make @ way for the gunboats to attack the | gunboats, and was left incomplete, | because at the last moment the naval commander | begged them not to finisn it, lest the enemy’s ves- The army | lest the United states Navy should be Shongas tn- | competent to cope with’ the enemy's.

G. Holland was then introduced, and read an original ode o! singular force and beauty, the | main idea of which was that our tears should not be shed fur the brave men who sieep ‘in the | sweet dignity of death,” but for those who crowd our counsels with the “spawn of little mes,”’ and hold the Nappiness and health of sovereign States in carpet bags. He told, in verse, the brave men | agsembied :— ‘That thoy who perished at our side Are void of victory, till we A Just and generous rule decree, And Itved as nobly as they died! He concluded by @ fine apostrophe:— O stately sbades of mighty men! Who mark our petty ends and aims, Warm us with vour diviner tames, | mony will be read to him, 7 THE PATTON-SWING OASE. | Protest Against the Reception of the Appeal—The Appellee Not Present— Counsel Appointed for the Defence.
