LMt eonln the Academy of Music wan dernclr
packed from floor to cclllnfr, and the enthusiasm
of the audience wan alwut In proportion to ltd aisse.
The Bohemian Girl, which Mr. Behreng selected for
hu benefit, In one of the most popular worka In the
repertoire of the Rlchings troupe, and although It has
by thia time be(run to pall somewhat upon the ears of
our opera goers, it can generally be counted upon to
attract a full house, if anything will. The interest
which attached to the performance last evening,
however, was due in a very large measure to the ap
pearance or Miss Susan Gallon in the role of
"Arline," and although Mr. Bohrcns Is
to be congratulated upon the (pecuniary
success of the entertainment, the honors of the
evening were fairly carried off by the attractive
young prima donna. Miss Galton has appeared
hitherto under signal disadvantages In this city, and
as she came here unheralded, her great popularity
has been fairly won. Her appearance in grand
Opera, therefore, at the Academy ,of Music, with such
a support as would enable her to do herself Justice,
was an event of much interest, although there wai
no doubt of hor success, provided her voice should
prove powerful enough for the large building, in the
minds of those who witnessed her personation of
"Amlna," in ha Sonnambula, last winter, at the
Chesnut Street Theatre, under circumstances that
were safflclcntly discouraging to dampen the ardor
Of the most enthusiastic artist.
Although The Bohemian Girl is a tolerably sure
paying card, and a very suitable piece to introduce
an artist-novice to the public, we cannot but regret
that La Sonnambula, Linda di Chamounix, or some
work of higher grade than it la, was not selected in
order that Miss Oalton conld have a fair opportunity
to display all her capabilities as aa actress and a
singer. The Bohemian Oirl is simply a series of pret
ty melodies, and as a musical composition, profesing
tojwork oat a certain theme, It is but a mediocre per
formance, not up even to Offenbach's standard. It
scarcely admits of any genuine acting, and It Is a
particular merit of Miss tialton's that she Is equally
good as an actress or a singer. This is a point
too often lost sight of by those who attempt
the lyric drama, for unless the various parts
in an opera are acted, in the most exact
sense of the word, the performance Is little more
than a concert in costume. The really first, rate lyric
artists are few and far between, but when they do
appear, as In the case of Madame Gazzanlga and
Slgnor Ronconi, the dramatic power of their persona
tions Is more than sufficient to extenuate any vocal
deficiencies. Now, this dramatic talent Miss Susan
Galton possesses In a high degree, and If she was no
singer at all, she would still be a very charming and
attractive actress. Miss Gallon's voice Is fresh,
sweet, and sympathetic; In comparison with some
of the best singers of the day, a slight ruggedness In
some of her notes, and a lack of the highest vocal
culture, will somewhat detract from the position
which we would like to award her. But she sings
with so much natural grace and expression, and she
possesses other qualities rare on the lyric stage,
which are so worthy of commendation, that her
slight deficiencies in this respect appear of but minor
moment.
When Miss Galton made her appearance In the
second act last evening, her reception was most
flattering ; Indeed, so anxious was a portion of the
audience to welcome her that Miss Mlschka, who
personated the "Gipsy Queen," was overwhelmed by
deafening applause. Although her friends were
evidently predisposed In ber favor, so that all her
airs were encored, the performance cannot be con
sidered an entire success. Miss Galton sang with
much feeling and expression, but her voice is not
sufficiently powerful to fill so large a building as the
Academy of Music Whether this Is an Inherent
defect, we are of course unable to decide on the
strength of a single performance. Miss Galton has
hitherto been accustomed to sing in the smallest
theatre In the city, and to be suddenly transferred
from such a box as the Theatre Comlque to the
largest opera house in the country is a severe trial of
strength any singer might dread. Miss Galton, too,
was evidently to a great "degree unfamiliar with the
role, and the want of sufficient rehearsals was ap
parent throughout. We believe that with a little
training Miss Galton could adapt her voice to the
Academy, as it seemed to improve in power as the
performance progressed. The aria from Sonnambula,
which was given Instead of the usual jinale, was de
lightfully rendered, and as Miss Galton Is evidently
more familiar with the music of that opera than with
The Bohemian Girl, it Is to be regretted that she did
not appear in it on this occasion.
The remaining parts In the opera were filled by
Messrs. Castle, Campbell, Seguin, Charles Drew, and
Miss Anna Mlschka, with whose merits the public
are familiar. The choruses were not well done, but
otherwise the performance was up to the usual mark.
The City Asnusnrnts.
At mr Aoadrmy ok Music Flotow's opera of
Martha will be given; to-morrow, MaxanieUo; on
Thursday, Fra Diavolo. On Friday evening Mr. Cas
tle will have a benefit, when Traviata will be pre

On Friday Mr. Barton BUI will have a farewell
benefit previous to his departure for London, where

Tub Parham Sewjno Machine Company. It hsbeen
thought by nesrly everybody that the Sewing Machine hud
been brought to uoh perfection that it was impossible
for any further linprovomont to be mads. But recently a
new machine haa been introduced which combine all the
good qualitte of all other machine now in uae, and many
new and invaluable feature which tend to make it the
machine of the day. It i manufactured by the Parham
Machine Company, an org-anizatiun which waa effected
about a year ago, at their factory, in the fireproof Tathain
Building, on Fifth itreet, above Looust, where the system
of workmanship established by the American Watch Com
pany and the United Statos Armory at SpringUeld, Mm,
ha been adopted. A a consequence, everything 1 in
i... nA urM.ka likA nlnt'k.work. It
perievt 1 .
coat some labor and money to introduce thi
system, nd to permanently establisn K a nnraoer oi
the workmen of the above celebrated establishment
have been secured by the Parbani Company. The ma
chine is the result of the labor of Charle Parham, a
noted mechanic of thi city, who ha devoted many year
of his life to the construction and perfection of these use
ful iustrumonts. That this labor has resulted successfully
is attested by the demand which ba already sprung up for
it. not only in this city but in ail prominent cities of the
UuiUtd States. Wherever it ha gone it baa been pro
Ubunevd a success. It has been eiaiuiued, and critically
sn, hj leading gwnlnsws, wne have sot aasrUsed la aoeerd.
tng H the paint over all other thai have been predoeed.
It simplicity of onnntraoUoa, its noiseless running, and
specially its adaptability for doing the most Intricate and
for making the most perfect work, en U kind of mate
rial, are calculated to recommend it to every family. An
other of it great feature is, that one machine is a perfect
foe rtmiU, in Ha elans, of another, so that if a wheel or any
portion whatever of tho machinery is broken, It can be
immediately replaced on application at any of th offloea
of the oompsny, by merely stating the class of the instrn
mnnt. The capital of the company is $500,000, and Its eapaorty
will be fire hundred machine per week. The salesrooms
of the company are located in the splendid five story
brown building Mo. 704 Cheenut street Hera, also, are the
showrooms, the packing and the business departments,
all under the dlreotion of competent assistant. The first
floor of No. 704 Chesnut is in use as a sales and show
room, and is splendidly fitted op, with marble floor and
superbly frescoed coiling. The great length of the build
ingsome 300 feet baa made a skylight dome in the
rear necessary, which is In keeping with tho rest of the
establishment, and is a modol of elegance and beanty,
Beneath this dome a winding staircase asoends to the
upper stories of the building, the (ocond floor being nsed
for private offices and the wholesale dnpsrtment; the third
as a stock room; the fourth, the cabinetmakers' apart
ment, and the fifth the pattern and model room. A Urge
building in the rear baa also been brought into requisi
tion, and the edifice, altogether, forma one of the largest
and most elegant establishments for the transaction of a
sewing machine business in the country.
