AMUSEMENTS, “SEMIRAMIDR” AT THE ACADEMY OF MUSIC, None of the four operas which Mr. Strakosch has Produced this week were as successful as Rossini’s “‘Semiramide,” yet it is one of the most difficult to produce and the least knows to the public. The rain last night prevented a large attendance, still the audience was well rowarded, and expressed by fre- quent applause its appreciation of the periormance. “‘Semiramide”’ is a succession of melodies; the com- Poser had not at that time surrendered to the influence of the new school, had not been influenced by Meyerbeer, whom he professed to despise, but whom he afterward learned to respect, and be therefore gave the romantié style of music, rather than the dramatic. Melody flows through ‘‘Semiramide” like a mourtain brook rippling through the sunlight, sighing through the shade and pouring its waves into tumalt at the eud, Even an imperfect performance cannot destroy its charm. ‘William Tell’? may be entirely ramed by & poor cast, but “Semiramide”’ will be always upliftea by the orchestra alone. 1 may be marred by bad sing- ing, but its beauty cannot be wholly eclipsed by the clouds which wave across its disc. “‘Semiramido” is a sunburst of splendor; it becomes almost munotenous in its excess of light; in it Rossini has indulged his genius for melody to the extrome, but in other operas he has shown greater dramatjc force. Alter the first act an apology was made to the aual- ence on behalf of Mile. Belocca, who was suffering with severe cold, and only consented to sing in order not to disappoint tho audienco In the first act this lady has a very long and wearying scene, and tho exaction told upon the voice. In the jthird act Mile. Belocca was not able to give proper effect to the duct between Arsaces and Semiramide, “Tu Serena,” but the audienco respected her artistic endeavors, This is bad for operatic singers, and Mile, ‘8 indisposition has compelled the management to substitute Trovatore”’ to- morrow afternoon, for The Sarber of Seville.” Mme.

Theodore Thomas gave his third popular concert at Steinway Hall last nignt. Tho programme was a varied one, bringing in Cherubini, Mozart, Beethoven, Weber, Liszt, Wagner, Handel, Schumann, Haydn, Donizetti 67% | Kiddoo and ‘Theodore Roseveit, and Rossini To this list was added the namo of a man called Georges Bizet, Here is a veritabio musical bouquet, larger and more diversified than can be found im any concert bill outside that which Theodore Thom: furnishes. Mr. Whitney (to rofer to the soloists first) sang tho grand arta of Sarastro, from the “Magic Flate,”” and the celobrated song of Polyphemus from Handol’s “‘Acis and Galatea.” The uncouth love muking of the one-eyed cyclops !s burlesqued admir- ably by the Emperor of Oratorio, and witn what artistic skill can only be appreciated by musicians who have heard tho arta, “0, Ruddicr Than aChorry,” Miss Drasdil in her selections from Weber and Dont- zettl, par nodile fratrum, sustained tho reputation she has long ago made asacontralto, Mme, Schiller is not a satisfactory interpreter of Liszt, The orchestra had some new works, now, at al events, to tho New York public. The “Ali Baby” overture of Cherubini was ono; the suite, “L’Arleasienne,” of Bizet, was the other, Thomas, in accordance with his fixed rule to produce novelties in orchestral compositions, be they good or otherwise, presented the works wo have mentioned. They were unworthy of his band. For Cherubini, one would be inclined to say, Offenbach in the overture and the suite was simply execrabie, One world naturally be shocked at hearing [rom the composor of **Medea’* and “Les Abencerrages’? such a trifling composition an tho overture to tl ‘Forty Thieves.” Yet this opera had a vast success in Germany when it was first written. Of Cherubini it has been said, ‘this stvle be- longs more to the German than the Italian school; yet his manner less Italian than that of Mozart; itis purer than that of Beethoven; itis, in fact, the chaste, ancient style of Italy, rotreshod and decorated with the harmony of modern times. And yet the con- tomporary of Mozart, of Haydn, of Beethoven and of Rossini writes an ‘Ali Baba’ overture. Although he ‘was placed among those great geniuses as a modorator, and although bis wisaom and firmness seemed destined to counteract the ideality of the satellites of those luminous planets; as Roason, by the sido of Imagin: tion, corrects her in her eccentric orbit and foeuses her scattered rays, the great composer, whose works, gen- erally speaking, will serve as models, on this occasion lapsed into musical imbecility, The old, old adage, “‘Aliquando dormitat Homerus," 1 thoroughly verified in this cage, Tho suite of Bizot is nota success. It is a cheap imitation of Gounod. Itconsists of four numbers—prelude, minuet, adagietto and carillon—a distribution pecaliarly French. M. Bizet is an orchcs- tral Lecoeq. He has all the tricks of the trade—violent contrasts and queer instrumental combinations. But the genins is wanting. The composer only touches the surface of human feeling His minuet is sorrowiul d, a8 Was Once written about Chopin’s till must danse, alas, poor tect so weary! in gay shoes dres In Though ‘twore for ye # fate less sad and dreary *Neath earth to rest.

A MESSBOX “oF THE STEAMSHIP CHARLESTON DIES OF THE DISEASE IN BROOKLYN. Yesterday it transpired that another well marked and fatal case of yellow fever had occurred in Brook- lyn. The victim was Hugh MeShanc, who had been employed in tho capacity of messboy on board tho steamship Charleston, which vessel carries freightand passengers between New York and Charleston, 8, C. It appears that Hugh, who was eightcon years of age, arrived at this port on Saturday last, September 30, and, not feeling well, he was permittod to go ashore, He returned to his mother’s residence, a small frame tenement house in the rear of No, 83 Hudson ave- nue, near Front street, The neighborhood is thickly settled by tho poorer elasses, and is not such as might ‘bo calculated to expedite a recovery from the effects of any malarial fever. Mra. McShane, the mother of the youth, tailing to realize the true condition of her son, proceeded to administer such common remedies as her unskilled judgment and exceedingly limited means would permit of. Bat Hugh began to sink on Tuesday, and the following day (Wednesday last) sho called in Dr Bodkin and Dr, Ross. These physicians, alter a careful examination of the patient and the his- pronounced 1t yellow fever. They re- ported it at once to President Utterson, M. D., of the Health Board, by the term given, so that there could bo no misunderstanding on the part of the authorities such as occurred in the latter partof August, when James Hunt died at No. 71 Cranberry street of yellow fever. Inspectors Bayliss and Grifllths were sent to the house and confirmed the report, Young McShane died the same night. Tho clothing and bedding were burned, the promises were liberally fumigated aud every precaution known to science was taken to guard against the contagion being commanicated in tho neighborhood, Considerable excitement and anxiety ‘was manifested in the vicinity when the nature of the case became generally known. The body was interred at the Cemetery of the Holy Cross, Flatbush, on Thursday morning.
