Turn French OrEitA. Tie Tory large and elite
aodienoe that assemb'ed at our Acadomr ol Music
last night, land the enthniiasm displayed, satisfy
us that the French opera Is already a formidable
rival to the Italian in our city. Tbe periormanoe
was throughout roost perfect, and even a triumph,
and we have rarely seen an intelligent audionoe in a
better humor. Evervbodt seouiod delighted, .dad Mo
Kaddie sang sweetly,' and acted with ta-ite and
tiprit. Mad'lle Laurcntis Is certainly peerloss as a
aonhrette. lier innumerable coquettish arts, her
exquisite taste both in dress and in posture, and her
tine vocalism, make her unequalled in her line. She
lent to the pert of "Jitia."iu tho opera ol Zampa,
a grace and charm totally unexpected. Along.
Armand elicited (treat applause as Zimpa, and
his singing, though not always unobjectionable,
possesses very much merit. De Surmont's line mel
levy tenor voice wan heard to lar more advantage as
"Alphonse" than on the previous occasion.
1 he delicious duct in the second act was most rap
turously encored, as it well deserued to be. Taken
all topothor, this superb opera has never before been
pearly so woll performed a? it was last evoning. The
alUrpieco, Le Mail re tie (hnpel'e, is a very amusing
operetta in one act inl reducing to ui Mons. Wil.
helm, the capital buffo, whose orchestral imitations
are iiresistiblv comlo. The performance last night
stamped this company, in lie opinion 01 all present,
as a ree'iy excoilent one. far better, indeed, than the
first effort recently cave us occasion to think.
Taking the performance last evening as a test, we
should say that the company is capable ol perform
ing almost any opera in really rood stylo. We trust
that MM. Paul Juignet and C. Drivet, the managers,
will soon find it to their interest to give us a little
season ot opera comique.

Radical Art and Dramatic Criticism.
Ihe New lork Tribune has, in its own estimation)
smashed an important branch of art just successfully
introduced into this country by Mes-rs L. Fran &
Co., of Boston. We allude to the ai t of reproducing
In oil colors the paintings ol' treat masters by
chromo-lithography, with such fealty that only a
Sractised eye can detect the deception, th s process
as become universally popular all over Europe, but
the Tribune is determined to keep it out of our world,
it possible, this is scarcely worthy of so great a
journal. To-day the Iribune thus condemns the
masterpiece ol Kouebue The Stranger play
tnat has outlived J ctiticism, and has been presented
to us for a hundred years as a most a Imirublo and
moral dramatic production. Here is what we are
forced to dcnoinii -te the Tribune's nypeicriil
Clsm :
That amusing old play, The Stranger, which was done
at the Winter Garden on Wednesday will be repeated
- - this evening; and we counsel such oi our readers as
mat wise to enjoy a period el quiet laughter to witness
its representation. Tiie Stranger, it is true, makes oine
people cry, but we are not Willi og to be leve that the
number of weepers la very large. Asi le from its talc
bout domestic love and children this drama has no
substantial merit. It) seriousness is its most ludicrous
quality. The language le sometimes beautiiul. In the
way of stilted nonsense The story but everybody
knows its character. A young wile runs away from
her husband, and commits sduitery. Tbe husband puts
on Hessian boots and a coat trimmed with fur. and goes
Into retirement. Ue is The stranger." Tbe wite re
pents, leaves her seducer, and a'so goes Into retirement
usually in a giey silk gown. Time passes, a i I these
two meet They live each other still at least tney say
to and they incline to make up then quarrel But
It cannot be I Bo the husband remarks -while the
wile ex ) reuses her satisiaction with a crust of
bread moistened with the teats of repent
ance, lheir two children are then produced,
and the parents make a stage tab eau, and
sympathetic persons In ihe audience to wipe thel'. eyes
and blow their noses and tbt Is tbe end oi it. Ought
ueh a sin as Mrs. -t anger's to be overlooked f
Assuredly not, we.shon'd sav ; and we presume that Is
the conviction oi all clear headed ;persons. As to the
conduct ol the "Stranger," It mlfciit not seem so absurd
I' he were not made, oy tie dramatist, so curiously In
the likeness of a melancholy human bassoon. Mr.
Booth la as ioterevtlug in the part as anr actor
can well be. Bis Hes-lan boots, anil lur trimmings,
and handsome, sad lace, and lemarkahly bad hat,
are eloquent of woe and he after tht words with
resolo e melanchnly. Miss Ida Vernon poorly repre
sents "Mrs. Bailer," not even dressing the part cor
Tour. No ornament is necessary to the mourntul lady.
Mr. l)avldi;e. as old "Solomon," elicits a good bit of
real art But, altogether, the penownance is one to be
received with geat e lanjhter. We creiuine that Mr.
Booth has appeared as the "Stranger" In order to Illus
trate how well he can act a part that ought not to be
acted at aiu his "xion viiesar ae uazan, wnicn is pre
sented in an alterpiece, ts admirably vital and vivacious.

scene selected by the artist as Hie mosi iw
ail be then witnessed for the subjeot of a ,!
national paintinir was one of the moun'ala (fork "
through which the "Yo-Somite" wiads lit deriowj
way. This great painting lof 'Tbe Yo-"Semtte Val
ley" has bten select -d by the Crosby Art lnlon aa
the seoond pnito in the disiiibution which is to take
Place on the 21st ol January next. It has at ittst
boen placed on exhibition in this city, and mafks
seen at the Art Gallery, at Jio. 1806 Chosnut streJf
When tbe visitor, on entering, beholds the siaie of
the painting, and is told that it is va oei at S20,00,
he is prepared to find some.hlng extraordinary.
And taken either as a wholo, or viewed In its re
motest details the"Yo-Semito Valloy" is oertainly a
manorpleoe of landscape painting a triumpH of
artistio gonius. ot whiob all tho countrymen of D.or
stadt may well be proud.
It would l e next to impossible to attempt a de
scription of the painting in the spaoe at our com
mand, much more difficult to call attention to even
the most striking leatures ot It. Bat tho general
outline will not be amls. On either side or tue ,
valley, at the foot of which Aojvs the shallow
st roam, the rocks rise perpendicularly to tho height
of eiphtfeo hundred leet, cold, har.-h, torotddmg,
yet standing out with all ttioir imposing grandeur
in taitulul portraiture At the heid or tho valley,
as lar as represented in the painting, there is a sud
den turn to the light.
This has enabled the artist, by bringing the rocks
in the distance into juxtaposition with tlioe In the
foreground, to display tbe contrast of the perspec
tive to the most startling advantage. A dim, vague
outline is Imparted to these distant crags by the
morning mist, whioh still lingers in the valley, sil
vered over, as it is, by the rays of the rising sun.
The mottled cloods which overhang the scene pro
sen; eno of tho most striking leatures ol the paint
ing, A marvellous eflcct Is likewise produced by
the fan-lil e rays oi light, which are visible Juit OT.r
tbe summit of the tocks to the right. In the fore
ground, on either sido. there is a group of forest
.trees, of gigantic growth in themselves, but d ws riod
into miniature by contrast with the surrounding
mountains. The name delicate ana musterly touou
which has given the rocky outlines such a startling
rtality is here plaiuly evident.
Such, in a tew words, is Bierstadt's "To-Scmlte
Valley," a painting which has already acquired a
national reputation. Suoh ol our .readers as tho
roughly appreciate the majesty of nature and tho
divinity of true art, should not neglect the oppor
tunity which is now presented to them lor gratilying
their tastes in no common degree.
Feast of the Immaculate Conception.
Io-dav is celebrated in the Catholic churches the
festival ol the Immaculate Conception oi tbe blessed
Ylrem Vary, Mother of Crod. Tbe day is observed
in all Catboho countries, but in this country more
particularly, inasmuch as tbe fathers of the Church
have declared this country to be under tbe guar,
diausbipof Mary, tho Immaculate Mother of bod.
The belief in the Immaculate Conception has pre
vailed in all ages ot the Churoh, but in the year 1864
it was deoiared an article of the Roman Catholic
fa th. Numerous passages are quoted from the
aucient liturgies, and also from the writings of
eminent theologians of modern times, in support oi
the belief in the Immaculate Conception, and it was'
on the authority ot these writing that the I'opo,
1'ius IX, speaking as the mouthpiece of the assem
bled prelates of the world, declared, "It is a dogma
of the faith that the blessed Virgin Mary, from tbe
first instant ot her conception, by a singular privi
lege and grace ol God, in virtue of the merits of
Jesus Christ, the Saviour of mankind, was preserved
perioctly free from all stain of orig.nal sin." In tho
various churches the day will be celebrated by the
societies attached to them, with processions and
attendance at the sacrifice of the Mass and tiie bene
diction ol the blessed sacrament.
A Distillery Fraud Case. John Mc-
Carran bad a hearing bo lore Commissioner Smith
this morning, on the charge of distilling without
giving notice or bond, which is required by tho act
of 13th July, 1866
Mr. ftieice testified as follows: On tbe 25th of

he would .not; the still is in flay s'roet, between

from Saturday. November 8. and watched it until
Tuesday ; on that evening went home ; I looked the
still up; when 1 got back the still had been removed :
the still was on a lot onneced with the defendant's
place ; I have soen the dvfondant thore.

Passing Counterfeit Monet. A man
was arrested last evening on suspicion ot pars
ing counterfeit notes, on tbe oorner of
Fourth and Chesnut streets. He was taken before
Alderman Butler, but after a hearing oi the circum
stances was discnnrgid.
ignorance in relation to valid ana counterfeit cur
rency is universal ; and men who are inoapadle of
any dishonest acts have, nevertheless, through Igno
rance, been gui'ty, in the eye of the law, ot pass
ing worthless money. Many of our most prominent
business men daily receive and pay out worthless
notes, perfectly unconscious as to their legality, and
without any dishonorable thought as to the act they
are committing; and were tbe law strictly entoroed,
one-halt of tbe community would appear before the
par oi justice ior aeaung in nncurrenc sninpiasiers.
It Is, therefore, the most easy thing imaginable to
preter a charge of pacing counterfeit money against
worthy citizens, tor an act commuted through igno
rance in relation to the validity of all manner of

A Model Paper. The Watchman and Reflector,
of BostoD, bas an enviable reputation for ability and
enterpiise. It has not been surpassed in merit by
any religious journal in the oonntry. But It aspires
to higher excellence, and proposes to become, with
the opening of the New Year, one of tho most com
prehensive family papers in the world. It will be
greatly enlarged, and published on a double sheet:
one sheet devoted, as hitherto, to reliirtous matter;
the other to literary, social, monetary, and agricul
tural articles. This latter department will be new
and peculiar, with a rich variety of contents, em
bracing articles on current moral, soolal, and politi
cal questions; on the leading men of the age in
thought and action; leviews of important books;
tales for the family oliole; agricultural and garden
ing matters for farmers; and monetary articles and
reports of the markets for business men. No journal
in the world certainly has a more comprehensive
plan to meet tbe wants of all families, and ot all the
members in a family; and as the editorial staff will
consist of nine men, all able and experienced in the
several departments, who will be assisted by thirty
contributors, many of them having a national repu
tation, the Watchman and Reflector must become a
model family paper, unequalled in merit and in
circulation. Its enterprising conductors deserve the
largest success. We refer our readets to advertise
ment in another column.
