Tho production of such operas as this and Tlie Marriage of Figaro, In pood stylo, Is the right kind of en terprise, and thiit it Is appreciated by the public is shown in the fact that all tho seats have beoa coenred with an eagerness almost unprece dented.

This series of paintings, illus trative of liunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress," have attracted large audiences during the last three weeks, and they fully deserve tholr popularity. C'harie Fechter, the Tragedian. The first appearance In this city of Mr. Charles Fechter, the Anglo-Franco-Teutonic tragedian, which takes place at the Walnut Street Theatre this evening, will be quite an event In the theatrical world. Mr. Fechtor's advent has been heralded by such a blast of trumpets that there is a groat deal or curiosity on the part or play-goers to see him, espe cially In the role selected for the opening night that or "Hamlet." Mr. Fechter was born in Hanway yard, Oxtord Btreet, London, about the year 1823, and la consequently abont arty-seven years of age. Ills father was a German, his mother an English woman, and he was educated entirely In France, so that the three leading nationalities of Europe have contributed to his physical and intellectual composi tion. For some years his attention was directed to sculpture, but he early manifested an In clination for the stage, and when but seven teen years or age he made his debut in Le Mari de la Veuve at the Balle Mollere, IVrig, a dingy little place. Although entirely without expe rience, his aotlng on thus oocaslon wag so rail or pro mise that it Insured him an Introduction to Scribe. A series or lessons at the Paris Conservatory fol lowed. But after a rew weeks' tuition, we are told be despaired or acquiring valuable knowledge In an Institution where four different professors, in as many weeks, had read to him one part after four different fashions. So he quitted the Conservatory and returned to his studio. He accepted directly, however, an offer to Join a travelling troupe in Italy, and although compelled by the pecuniary ill success ot the venture to again take up the chisel, he was so little disheartened as to set aside a diploma authorizing him to compete as a sculptor for the prix de Rome, and to profit, in preference, by an authoiicatlon entitling him to a hearing at '.the Comedlu Francaise. From that day Mr. Fechter's career as an actor was uninterrupted. He was part of the company of the Comedle for eighteen months, and he laid on the stage or the first theatre ot France the foundation or a thorough ra mlllarity with his art. Leaving this house, lie passed a year in Berlin, whence he transferred his services to the Vaudeville, then to the Ambigu, then to the Varictes, and then to the Theatre Uistorique. At the latter theatre he was the original personator or "The Corslcan Brothers,' and or "Horace" in Pauline. Subsequently, at the Vaudeville, he "created" the part or "Armaud" in La Davie avx Camelias (Camille), and that or "Raphael" tn Lee Fillee de Marbre, and th sn accepted the pro posals or the Porte St. Martin management, and fig ured there In Le File de la Nuit, La Belle Oabrielle, and kindred works. Suited by physical qualities and by early picturesque surroundings for the delineation or romantlo characters, he won tor himself in them a great popular reputation. This portion or his career was varied by a proresslonal visit to Berlin, which occurred in the year 1846. Having now reached the zenith or his fame as a French romanclst, he turned his attention to the English stage, and, after studying the language with the Itev. Mr. Bellew, a sensational preacher of note, he ap peared In 1860, uuder the management of Mr. Har ris, In Iluy Bias at the rnnccss' Theatre, London. Whatever may be the merits of his acting, his suc cess was so immediate and so decided that he at once determined to forsake the French stage and to plve his whole energy to the easy task or delighting English audiences. He soon attacked "Hamlet," and, casting aside certain traditions or the English stage, created no little sensation by his Innovations, especially that ot a flaxen wig. His suocess In this Shakespearian cnaractcr tea him to essay "Othello" in 1S61, at the Princess'. His success In this role by no means equalled that which ,' had attended his "Hamlet," and soon after he re ' turned to his French repertoire, am during the re mainder of his engagement at this theatre devoted his attention to a class or plays or which The Comiean Brothere may be taken as a type. In 1968 he trans ferred himself to the Lyceum, of which he became lessee, his first Important production here having been John Brongham'i adaptation or The Duke's llvtto, whloh ensured the success of his management. Bel Demonio followed, and at long Intervals Hamlet was revived, with stage appointments of unusual excellence and attraction. He relied, however, mainly ; upon the more fervid of the French dramas, until he brought ont Bulwer's Lady of Lyons, creating a profound sensation in the part or "Claude Melnotte." His next great suocess was In the dramatization or 'o Tho roughfare, a Christmas story by Charles Dickens and Wilkle Collins, which bad been written with the special view of supplying Mr. Fechter with a part in whloh hi imperfections of pronunciation would not he Inappropriate. Ho Tltorouqhfare was brought out , at the Adelphl on Christmas day, isqT, during Mr. Dickens' last sojourn in the United States, the dra matization having been the Joint production of Wllklo ColllnB, Benjamin Webster, and Mr. Fechter himself. His personation in this play ot the role of "Oberseiaer," although not regarded as equal or his early triumphs on the London stage, was regarded as superior to any or his later achievements at the Lvceum. Last year It was announced authoritatively that Mr. Fechter would pay a proresslonal visli to thU couulir, and bis advent was heralded .by a highly enlogtstlo article In the August , num ber of the Atlantis Honthlp, from the pen or Charles Dickons, which, of Itanlf, would hare been snfllclont to ensuro him a patlont hearing be fore an American audience. He arrived In Now York ai ont the first of the present year, and made his first appearance at Nihlo's Garden, on the 10th of January. Two weeks wero devoted to Ruy Ulan, another fortnight to The Duke'e Motto, and a single week to IlamUU Mr. Fechter then Journeyed to Boston, where he played "llamlot" during his Prat week and "Ruj 111 as" during the second, winding up his brtof engagement with a slnglo representation of The l,aAy of Lyon, on Friday evening of last week. Such, in brief, has been the lire of an actor who has had a very successful career on bith tho French and English stages. The diversity of opinion with which his performances In this country have been received Is already familiar to our readers, and we torbear All comment upon it until he has made his debut upon tho stage or this olty. Ilr-i.Mnoi.i). The St. I.onis Republican comes to us with a largo part of its space occu pied with Hclmbold's advertisements. It says that "while many of our ctistomors shrng thoir shoulders at the price of a fourth, a third, or a half a column, Holmbold gobbles half-a-dozon columns at a time, and wishes tho chargos were higher, so that he, who can afford to pay hand somely, might come nearer monopolizing all tho space allotted to advertisements. 'With a good preparation," say, lioimboid, -judicious ana liberal advertising cannot bo too dear.' We know nothing personally about tho merits of his medicines, but it certainly is a fact that im mense quantities of them are sold, and It suits our purpose to attribute the fact to tho character and the amount of advertising done by the "Prince of liuchu."'
