The house was crowded, as on the occasion of her drst appearance, and the good fortune of her previous effort attended her also in this. So far as | mere voice is concerned Mllg. Titiens was not so fortu- nate as on Monday night, but her acting was full of the fire which has given her much of her fame as a lyric artist, and her singing at all times displayed consummate art. As to the performance as ‘a whole, considering it from a high operatic standpoint, we cannot speak so confidently. Indeed, the entire evening was only an illustration of what the HeraLp has already said of the performance, that the presenta- tion of opera at the Academy this season is only operatic concert, From the overture to the finale this was true last night, Everything that went before the “Casta Diva’? was exceedingly feeble, and was submitted to quietly and aay a thing necessary to be endured, because there was this grand ariain the work, and Titiens was to sing it, At aconcert Signor Baccei might have sung the ‘Me Pro- tegge” air before an audience equally patient—he might have sung it with as little or as much effect; for last | night the idea that the little man who was doing Pollio was a Roman proconsul no more suggested itself to his auditors than his singing the song would have done on a less pretentious occasion, The sam remurk applies to the rendering of the opera throughout, the tenor, the basso and the donna secunda only filling in the interstices of the evenin; for the occagions when Mille, Titiens put to the full test her art either as an actress or a singer. Ina single instance Miss Beaumont rose above this level, and in the ‘Mira O Norma” she sung not only with much sweet- ness but with force and expression. If the first act only led up through much patientsuffering to the Casta “Diva”? and the Ak, Bello a me Ritorus, in neither of which Mile. Titiens was equal toher own high stand- ard, the successive scenes of the second act were pro- paratory, in the concert sense, to a bit of splendid acting on the part of the prima donna in the scene where she exposes the perfidy of Pollio. ‘The recitative during this episode breathed all the fury and paseion of strong and injured roipaphood, and the acting stands out boldly and by ltself for cragic force and power. After this the trio “Oh Dé Sei Tu” came as a relief to the overstrained feelings of a house gpell-bound with the completeness of Mile. Titiens’ art and her double skill as a lyric and dramatic artist, It was the only thing like real. opera which the evening afforded and it seemed even to inspire Signor Baccei with a higher artistic spirit than his rovious efforts gave aby reason for expecting from im. ‘The curtain fell tor the second time with éclat, and the triumph in a measure justified the operatic concert which was assuming to be opera at the Academy of Music. — In the last act the battle chorus ‘was especially well rendered, and the ‘Mira 0 Norma’ earned a recall, but the gem of the evening was the deop feeling and consummate taste with which = Mile, Titiens sung in the Here, too, she lifted the her own It will be seen from this that the perform- | ance of Bellini’s work under its preseat conditions is a | Series of episodes each agreeable in itself, und in a | measure jusiifying what comes between, It is not opera in its bighest sense—indeed ‘Norma’ docs not admit of the highest artistic interpreta- tion, but it ws better than mere —con- | cort'in this, that it gives the great artist who embodies the work an opportunity for displaying those excep- tional and phenomenal powers which would have been dented her in the concert room. It is pleasant that such great good fortune has followed her endeavor, and the alacrity with which tho American public sustain her is proof that her efforts are appreciated. It has been determined to repeat the opera again to-morrow evening, the production of *‘Lucrezia Borgia’’ being re- served for Monday night. MR. F.

The lactometer, said Protessor R. Ogden Doremus last night, before the Medico-Legal Society, does not cor rectly indicate the purity of milk. Professor Wanklin, the noted English chemist, devotes several pages of bis recently published book to a discussion of that instru- ment, whien he pronounces the most untrustworthy of scientific contrivances. Next to obtaining pure medicines, continued the Professor, it might be con- sidered desirable that we should have pure articles of diet From time immemorial have found difficulty in obtaining pure milk. The chief ingredient with which it has been adulterated is water; yet everybodye trom the retail dealer away back to the dairyman, de- nies having watered it, A story in @ comic newspaper illustrates this:—‘Sonny, tell your mother not to put water in the milk.’ ‘She does not put any water in it,” ig the reply, “Then tell her to have her cow thatched, for the rain leaks in,” retorte the other. Our present method of criticising milk is offer- ing @ premium on the adulteration of it by tempting the dealers to remove one of its most important in- gredients, the cream, and to add water to it, This caused by the use of the lactometer as a test, I propose to show that the instrament ts in error, We never can judge of the value of milk by its gravity. If pare milk is permitted to stand, there is a portion of it which rises. This we call cream ; and the very fact of its ris- ing shows it to be lighter than the fluid in which it is suspended. g I have here, continued the Professor, holding up a lactometer, just such an instrument as is manufactured for the Board of Health. You see it is provided with a thermometer. It is used by dropping it into the milk to be tested and if the temperature of the fuid is cor- rect the height to which 6 instrument is buoyed up is considered the test of puri- y- Tt ought to work on this scale at least 100, Now here is some milk obtained from a cow this afternoon. I know it is pure. I dip the lac- tometer into it and it stands at 105, 1 now pour some cream into the milk and,the lactometer gradually sinks to 32 in pure cream! Now I take some of thesame milk in which the instrument stands at 105 and pour in water, and precisely the same result is achieved— the scale marks about 32 So that we may have two samples of milk, one rich in cream and the other precisely the same purity, I found the other day, experimenting with a sample of pure milk that stood at 113 with the lactometer, on removing the, Cream it stood at 135, thas leaving a discre; which per- mitted—pay, invited—the addition of one-seventh of water. jeard one man say, ‘Let the laws ot Now York establish beyond question that the lactonsoter is the offictal instrument for testing milk and I will go into the business, and at the same time start a butter factory.” In Orange county twelve cows j Were milked in my presence, I took a sample of tho { milk of each, and five out of the twelvesstood below the | Standard 100. They ran from 95 down to 90, aud subjecting the milk to chemical analysis [ | found the fact was owing to its richness in cream. I told the owner of the cows that be dared not bring such milk into New York for he would be fined $250, Of course a complete analysis will indicate with cer- tainty the quality of milk, but that is tedious and necessarily expensive In some parts of France they employ a iactometer as a partial guide If it sinks very deop a sample of the milk is taken and analyzed. Mr. Tagliabue, who makes these instruments for the Board of Health, has suggested another method, which I have only partially examined, that is to ga given volume of milk, add an alkali to it, ake it, then add some acid, and fimally raise the tempera- ture of the mixture to about 190 degrees, we shall find upon then placing the vessel containing it into cold water that the buttery and cheesy matiers will coagu- Jate and rise to the top, and from the thickness of thas the richness of the milk is estimated, The Professor while detailing the process suited the action to the word and performed the experiment, tak- ing four samples of milk dituted with water in different quantities, The coagulations formed upon these samples varied in thickness from half an inch totwo | and a half inches in glass tubes one inch in diameter. , Many physicians, the lecturer said, judge of the quality | of milk by [org le ol drop of the sampie between two | pleces of flat giass, looking at it with the microscope ; and Judging of its quality by the number of oi! globules visibl ‘be fallacy of this was shown by placing three separate drops of the same milk between | different pieces of glass, when in one case thousands of globules were visible and in another scarcely any. ‘This,was to be accounted for on the ground that the pieces of glass drawn together by cohesion are in no two cases at the same distance apart. Another method of forming ® rough idea of the quality of milk was to dilate it with water, holding it to the lignt to judge by its opacity, A little instrument constructed on that prin- ciple was shown. It consisted of two plates of glass separated slightly and with a tiny funnel leading be- tween them. The funnel is filled with milk, which is allowed to ran in between the plates of glass which are then, by means of athumb screw, separated to an: jiven extent, and looking through the volume of milk tween them, the experimenter can form an idea of pe ged trom its opacity. This was recommended as w 1 for med! men in ascertaining the relative quality of the milk of wet nurses. At close of Professor Doremus’ remarks, a siight discussion of the matter was held by members ot the society. Among those who took part in it were, be- sides the professor, President Frank Hamilton, Dr. Melly: Dr. Havens, Mr. Delancey and Mr. George he latter gentleman presenting the difficulty legislating on the subject of adulterated milk. Professor Doremus proposes to discuss the subject of Praia milk before and with the society at an carly jay.
