Friday evening ctosed the opera sea

pany contains more fine singers, and has
given us more fine operas than any we have
had here for a long time. Yet the

Academy of Music, the other nigist r - that
M. Maretzek says he will_never bring . a
troupe to Philadelphia again. _ Whether , this
be true or not, we cannot say, but , we re
peat that the season has been a failure r and
it might be well for both M.hfaretzek ardour
pensive public, to consider why it has been
so. In the first place, M. Maretzek should re
member that if he brings a troupe here in
October, when a third of our regular opera
goers are still out of town, he cannot expect
good houses. Philadelphia has no floating
population of foreigners, _travelers, people.
passing through the city, to whom the Aca
demy of Mtudc is merely a place of amuse
ment, and who rush thither in suSteient
numbers to fill the house at any
time of year. Some of AL Maretoek's
artists can say whether the season last
January was succesaftd or not, and if there
were many vacant seats or even much
standing room when the best operas were
:given with the best cast. That leads us to
the second point to which we wish to call
M. Maretzek's attention. Last winter,
when the Academy was filled to overflow
ing, almost every night for two weeks, the
best singers were given the principal parts,
and we were not excited by a long parade
of distinguished names in the prospectus
which scarcely appeared afterwards in the
programmes. In this troupe, among the
men, are two beautiful artists, Signor Ron
coni and Bellini; the former has sung, we
believe, in but three of 'the ten operas
which have been given, and though Signor
Bellinfs name has been constantly on the
bills, he himself has generally appeared as
the " walking gentleman" of light comedy,
and his extreme good nature is in keping
with his great gifts, and marks him as a
striking instance of absence of egotism,
but it is neither wise nor fair of Mr.
Maretzek to give such a singer subor
dinate parts when the leading ones '
are filled by his inferiors; an opera
in which Signor Bellini could, with justice
take a second or third-rate part, would be a
Utopian one, which no one now living is
likely to hear. Moreover, when we know
that bliss Kellogg and Mmes. Carmen
Poch and Nataii-Teista are in the troupe, it
is bard to be asked to listen to the attempts
of young ladies like 'Mlles. Hauck, Ron
com and Bonheur; their possibilities may
be boundless, but at preaent the beat that
can be said of them is that they sing like
school girls. One last word to M. Maretzek
—if he wishes to please the public, he must
keep his artists up to their work. No one
Who bad the ph3asure,of hearing Sig. Maz
zolenl when he first sang in Faust about
three years ago, and who heard him in that
opera on Monday, could help asking
what has happened to him. That he has
not lost his voice is occasionally evident;
that he has not, forgotten how to. sing he
proved fully on Wednesday, when he gave
the supremely difficult music in the fourth
act :of 'the Hieguenots so well; that he
is not indifferent, his spirited acting
in all his characters attests,
and to his praise be it remembered that
Sig. Mazzoleni's acting is always truth itself,
himever, false he sings. But he does sing
very false, very often, sometimes through a
Whole act, and we ,recommend , the proverb
about birds who can sing and-won't - sing to
him and his manager.
These are some of the chief causes of .the
failures of this opera-season, bat there is
something to be said to the public. The
complaint is often made that the opera
comes to Philadelphia so seldom, and stays
so short a time. As long as it meets with no
better encouragement such will be the case.
When - a manager can count upon crowded
houses from October to May, in New "Thrk,

Scientific Lectures.
The Franklin Inatitute, since its revival,
inaugurated about a year since, has entered
upon a work which may 'well claim the
countenance and support of 'all good citi
zens. Regarding itself as responaible not
only for a'- diligent diffusion of scientific
and mechanical information, but also for a
share in the great work of moral, ameliora•
tion, it has made, and is constantly making
efforts to bring before the public in a form
so attractive as to secure attention., those
topics, which,while they interest and please
all minds, at the same time elevate them,
and arouse a thirst for further knowledge
which must lead into fields of research full
of improvement and beneficial in every re
spect. With this view the reading room
has been refurnished with every attention
to comfort and - convenience, and folly
stocked with works of reference, scienti
fic magazines, dr.o. • A secretary has' been
engaged who is ready at all times to give
information to those desiring it. Meetings
of a most interesting character are held
every month, at which all novelties
in science and the arts :are discussed
[Our readers are doubtless familiar with
the full reports of these meetings, which
are regularly published in this paper.]
Lastly, popular Scientific lectures are, from
time to time, delivered both at the Institute
and at the Academy of Music. All these
things tend clearly and directly to the ob
jects enumerated above, and all - 010 are in
terested in these, as well as all who wish
well to our good city, and the increase of
its manufactures, shoUld give their cordial
support to so good a work.
In our advertising columns will be found
the announcement of the Institute for this
Winter, including among other things the
statement of four courses of lectures, the
first of which, on Electricity and Light, by
Prof. Morton, we judge, from a synopsis
contained in a little pamphlet freely circu
lated by the Institute, is likely to prove a
very attractive affair.
The first of these lectures will be deli
vered on Tuesday evening, and among the
attractions enumerated is one of the largest
Ruhmkceff coils ever made, the new and
wonderful Holly Electrical machine, and
an immense assortment of new electrical
apparatus and experiments.

appreciate it, and that is not done by stay
irg au ay from it when i does come. In :a
city the size of ours,there : repeople enough,
and, there ought to be lov:rsof musitkenbugh
to make a good house stt any season: More
over, the habitual coldness of our audiences
is enough to discourage the most self-satis
fied 'singer. The most skillful singing, the
finest piece of acting, the entrance and
exit of the most popular artists, are passed
over in silence, while a moving water-fall
or an illuminated gallery, raises a storm of
applause; and if there is an encore, it is of
some familiar air, like the soldier's chorus
in Faust, which people like because they
think they can sing it themselves, or some
loud note, generally very improperly intro
duced, which startles the audience into mo
mentary, agitation. Empty, seats, empty
applause, or worse still; none, are not the
emus of public approbation which will
bring managers or artists to. Philadelphia.
We must show more enthusiasm and ap
preciation for music, if we , do not wish to
have our .:noble Academy. devoted excliF

performances, W.
An English Bellew of the Coatesi Be
tween the Congress and'President.
All Americans agree that there never has
been in their country such a party fight as
that which will make the present autumn
memorable. Among the many aciyhntages
of their political system _there is this draw
back—that political warfare is mitt:Onions
and almost incessant, Party men feel to
ward each other an antipathy and vindic
tiveness which are scarcely to be conceived
by the British public. Moreover, the quar
rels, though fierce,
are not abort lived, for
no sooner is the bitterness of one election
over than the bitterness of another begins.
The "politician" which, in American
phrase, means not so much a statesman or
political leader as one who devotes himself
to the management of party contests,
the organizing of meetings, the nomina
tion of candidates and the various
arts by which success is ob
tained at the polls—neither spares
his opponent ner looks for quarter himself.
In the present contest a multitude of zeal
ous partisans on each side have been en
gaged for months on the most fiercely-fought
political campaign that the country has
seen. There have been larger meetings,
more fervent oratory, a more complete elec
toral organization, and, if report speaks
true, a larger expenditure of money than
' ever before in the memory of man. The is
sues are more momentous than any that
have ever been placed before the republic,
with the exception of the choice between
peace and war, five years ago. The Presi
dent has within the laat few months-vetoed
several important bills, and one of them has
, 'been carried in spite of his authority, by the
,two-third' vote of Congress. He has in
, weighed against his opponents in language
of hatred and contempt which late- hardly
been exceeded by the harangues of the
Wildest radicals. He has gone f om place to
Vine to defend his conduct before ther
to influence the elections by encouraging
the party which supports him, and denounc
ing theopposition. He sought, no doubt,
to repay his enemies the scurriloars invectivea
which their leaders had lavished on him,
and which be seems to have felt more deeply
than we should expect from a man who had
been accustomed to the public life of Ten
nessee. Bat the radicals showed that they
were not to be awed by the person of the
President, even though he should beaccom
panied by a Secretary of State who had
rendered such unparalleled services as Mr.
Seward, and by the two most popular heroes
of the late war, General Grant and Admi
ral Farragnt. The radicals bettered the
instruction which the President gave tbem,
and as he had descended to stamp"
the country, they treated him as
they would an unpopular stump
orator. The superiority in violence and in
vective can hardly be adjudged either to
him or his opponents, but ordinary men
may say and do what a Chief Magistrate_
cannot, and it is beyond a doubt that the
President has injured it may be ruined,
himself by this ill-advised tour. c :"
The moderate men of the successful party
and a large section of the public are for these
reasons inclined to believe that Ur. John
son will so far yield to Congress as to advise
the Southern States to accept the constitu
tional amendment and thus obtain their
representation at I Washington. If he per
sists for a time he will,, they think,be aban
dohed by Mr. Seward and every man of
eminence in his party, and be forced by the
remonstrances even of the South itself to
adopt a more reasonable course.
On the other hand, the extreme section of
the radical party are for war to the bitter
end. They believe that the President is a
desperate man, and is ready for deperate
acts. They pointto the threatening speeches
which he has delivered, and tell the people
that he will do what he has hinted at. It
cannot be denied that there has been some
thing sinister in the utterances of
the President,- and still more so in
those of the electioneering orators on his
side. The doctrine that the President is the
real depositary of the national power, that
he has been chosen by the people, and is
bound to see that the rights of all citizens
are maintained, has been asserted in a
manner which has not unnaturally
roused suspicion. If the President
be the natural guardian of the consti
tution under which the South claims
to be represented; if Congress, which
refuses to admit the South, be acting ille
gally, and if these two powers be brought
into collision, what means of deciding the
differences are 'to be found ? The radical
orators declare that Mr. Johnson intends to
nee his authority as chief of the regular
army to override by force the decisions of
Congress. They therefore demand that he
shall be impeached, and such haa been the
eicitenient among the party, so vidlent
have been the denunciations of its leading.
Men; that very many people whose opinions
may be considered sound believe that this
caurse will bb adopted: and that open war
will break out between the Executive and
the Legislature in a few weeks' time. The
rage pi the radical party is increased by the
conduct of the President with regard. ,to
alder appointments: Nearly forty years
ago .the doctrine that "the spoil is to the
victors" was declared-by ,GeneralJaekeon,
and ever since it has been almost a'matter
of course that the occupants of all public
offices should be changes with a change in
the administration. But the party:whieh
carried on the late war and brought it to *
succesifur close;cannot bear that in 'this
hour °fits triumph it should be treated as
if were a defeated faction. - Usually Con
gress is in unison with the President, for the
same public has elected both. The party of.
Mr. Sumner and Lieneral Butler find them
selves victorious in the elections and en
prime at Washington, and yet they are un
able to nominate 'to a single place, or to
AII ERICAN RECONSTRUCTION.
[Prom the London Times, Oct. 2t.]
prevent every one who has voted with' them
from being turned out of offices bestowed by
Mr. Lincoln. The President, regardlees of
the rising storm; is engaged ell-day long in
expelling Re dicale and installing Democrats
in the federal posts throughout the Uniori.
He in resolute.to use his power to the ut
most, and his acts rouse his enemies to
frenzy. If the President' persist in defying
Congress, his impeachment and deposition
would be hailed with unspeakable delight
by scores of expelled placemen.' •
On the whole, we are inblined to join in
the fcirMer of the two opinions which we
have indicated, and to believe that the Presi
dent will no longer oppose the declared will
of the. North. Americans are •so prone to
vehemence and exaggeration in their politi
cal contests, that we must, •not predict their
deliberate acts from the utterances of the
platform. The President has spoken vio
lently and • menacingly, and his phrase "a
revolutionary body," applied to Congress,
may well excite alarm among the members,
and induce - .them to take " measure& of
self defence. On the other hand, Mr.
Sumner and others of the opposite
party, among whom General But
ler is conspicuous, have in
veighed against Mr. Johnson in a style
seldom applied to the Chief of a State. It
must be reatembered, however, that these
speeches were made before the elections,
and with the avowed purpose of stirring up
party energy to the utmost. They all have
the character of hustings' harangues, and
must be estimated accordingly. The excite
ment will, of course, be kept up, more or
IeSS, for another month, until all the elections
are over, and till then we can hardly look
for a milder tone of public oratory. Bat
when the electoral campaign is at an end,
and the verdict of the country has been fi
nally given, it will be strange if More mod
erate counsels do not prevail. •

by copyists, are in future to be printed.
One hundred and eight copyists are now

most of whom are females and by the plan
proposed ten copies can be printed for the
same money paid for writing two. In the
matter of paper alone there will be asaving
of at least four thousand dollars per annum.
