"L Prophete."
Meyerbeer's opera of is Prophtle wan pro
auoetl In handsome style last, evening to a very
large audiouce. Toe performance was a deol
ded suooess, and It was an event to be re mo in
bered, a tlie opera Iihh never OrwuKl von In tin
city mora inau once in the oourite ot agrea
many years, and tbe lequlremvuts for Us suo
cesstal presutitatlou are so many and s k ent
that It la not likely ever to become oaofciuyeit.
Tue plot of tbe opeia Is fouuded oa tbe ea eer
Of John of Lyden. the lender of tbe MomiUr
AtabaptUt lDnurrtOilou which originated ia
portion of Germany ia tbe sUteeulii oenlury
This tmihreak nn struggle for political nod
religious liberty, and the combination of
fanatlolHin ana k tin very wbloli clmrao
terlaed It makes a carious study. Tue sub
ject Is highly dramatic, ami nons oat
a com pot er of the highest genlnsoonld wor
thily Interpret It. Toe sombre coloring of tbe
opeta will prevent H from ever bfoomtug ex
tensively popular, but uoh a performance as
that of last evening Is ou mat uo lover of lyric
silt will readily forget. Tao composer has ad.
mlrably worked out his ihnme, all taeoharan
ters are strongly Individualized, and Inn
powetfnl situations ol the drum areilluslrstel
uy niusia every way wnnuy m vueBuujnui.
Tbe east last evening was a strong on9.
Madame La Grange, alihoucn ber voice lm
lost komelblDg o( the frefcliuess of ten year
go, is a great artist. Her personallou of
"Fidea" was a grand piece of traglo aoilng,
wbiob has not been t quailed on tbe stage of tbe
Acsdemv for many a year by Rny other singer.
Miss MtOuiloob's "Bartba" was also an excel
lint performance,, but as some of tne
best mnslo belonging to tba role was
omitted, she did not have a fall oppor
tunity to dlstiiigalsb herself. Hignor
ltoetu's Interpretation of tbe role of
"Jubn of Leydon" was a surprise. His actios
and singing were alike worth v of hearty com
metidauon, and the performance was far supe
rior to anything that be ha yet given la toU
city. Tbe three Anabaptist preuohers, "Jonas,"
MatalKen," and '-Zobaria," were admirably
personated by Habelmann, Brlll, aod Anio
nuool. Tbe last named artist sustained tbe
burden of Ibe music, and ooatlrmed his reputa
tion as one of the first bass s on tbe stage.
Tbe opera was placed npon the stage In hand
some siyle. The chorus was full and efttolem,
The dresses and appointments were handsome,
and the grand coronation fcene In the fonrlh
act was one of the finest pieces of spectacular
nct ever aiven on the stage of the Academy,
" In Paris Lc I'rophete is always produced with a
full ballet ana grand accessories, wnion oouiu
anarcAlv he exneoted at an occasional perform
ance like that of last evening. Md'lles Wes-
znael and Zuoooll gave one or two graceful
ftsniwn hnt thev soarcelv reDresented the com-
nlntA ballet accomoanlmeul that probably
' belongs to the opera, and they did not add
sreatlv to the effect. Indeed, the introduction
Mi imlint In ft wnrir of this kind Is an Incon
gruity, and it would not bave been a matter of
VIM City Amusements.
At thb academy of Music Meyerbeer's
