Mmo. gazzoniga was superb at the matinde, and the Faust, in German, was very finely done. Miss Hauck was charming in many scenes, but she wants force and Intensity for the more'impassioned ones. Mr. Habelmann sang the part of "Faust" for the filet time, after Inadequate rehearsal and under other disadvan tages. But he sang perfectly and his acting was, in general, very good. He will unquestionably' be the best " Faust' in the country, after he feels more at home in the part. The " Mephisto pheles" of Hermanns was, grand and striking as ever, and his noble voice did full Justice to the difficult music. Mme. Testa's " Sieber was as good as the part could be wade, and even tho in congruity of her singing in Italian rather gave piquancy to it. Wilhelm Formes was a very good ... Valentine." The opera was well done, as a whole, and it, made a brilliant finish to a very succesr , ful season. Bat the season is not wholly finished, for an extra performance is to be given at Horticultural Hall this evening, when the lively (not "lovely," as printed in a former notice) Cardinal of t . ' enne. will be repeated. Many of the masquers from the bail at the Academy will be admitted in the carnival scene. There , will also be scenes from several other operas. The performance at Horticultural Hull this evening will begin precisely at quarter to eight O'clock.. L&ny Dox.—Lady Don begins the second week of her engagement at the Aroh street tlae4rtre, this evening, in an entirely new burlesque upon Moore's famous Lallah Rookh. We embrace the opportunity to pay a merited tribute to the abil ity, skill and good taste of this popular actress. Lady Don's forte is decidedly burlesque and light comedy, and she very wisely confines her efforts to parts of this character, instead of attempting heavier roles, as other artists often do, and sink to mediocrity in consequence. Lady Don has many natural advantages which help to make her performances excellent. How person is attractive; she has a sweet, sympathetic voice, that is, highly cultivated, and she sings the pretty ballads of her repertoire with an elegance and grace that never rail to Charm andgratily her hearers. Her manner Is sprightly and vivacious, and she enters into the spirit of the dramas in which she appears with a sense of hearty enjoyment, and keen appreciation of the fuu,which has an imme diate influence upon her audiences. Lady Don is not a great actress in the usual acceptation of that phrase, but she is very superior in her pecu liar line, and there is a certain delicacy and grace about ell of her performances which cannot fail to please the most fastidious and sensitive. Lady Don is a refined and cultivated woman,' and if this were not apparent- from her manner, it would be sufficiently so from the fact. that she a''oids all coarseness and inelegance in a depart ment of the drama where the tendency to these faults is almost irresistible. She deserves from the play-goers of Philadelphia the tribute of crowded houses during her engagement. MR. C. HILNItY'd BENEFIT.—To those who have visited Tunison dc.Co's. Minstrels, it is unneces sary to speak in praise of the gentleman whose name heads this notice; to those who have not we would state Mr. Henry is the tenor of this excellent troupe,and is one of the sweetest tenors we have in the minstrel business. On Thursday night next, the 23d Just., he will receive a benefit, and be has prepared for that occasion a very at tractive bill, that should crowd the Seventh Street Opera House. The box office is open up to the day for securing seats. THE TIIEATRES.—At the Chestnut this evening Mr. John E. Owens will appear in the Cricket on the Hearth and in The Live Indian. Mr. Owens' engagement will surely be very successful. His `,'Caleb Plummer" is one of the most original and artistic conceptions upon the stage. Those who have not seen him in the character have missed a treat. Mr. Dickens never presented any of his creations with the skill exhibited by Mr. Owens in this. At the Walnut to-night Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams will appear in The Fairy Circle, The Rough Diamond and The Irish Tiger. At the Arch, Lady Don appears in a burlesque of Lallah Rookh, and in the comedy The Ladies' Club. The American offers a diversified enter tainment. ELEVENTH STREET OPERA HOUSE.—An entirely new burlesque entitled The Arrival of Dickens, will be given this evening. It is tilled with laughable situations, local hits, humorous dia logue, and the characters are personated by the most popular members of the company. Lew Simmons will represent Charles Dickens. Mr. J. L. Carr.cross will sing several favorite ballads, and there will be singing, dancing, and the usual miscellany. PHILADELPHIA Orme. Hoosa.—The famous burlesque entitled The Black Book will be given to-night at this opera house. It Is a humorous adaptation of The Black Crook, and is said to be ' intensely amusing. It has had a prolonged ran in Boston and New York, and has been warmly eulogized by the press of both cities. It is placed upon the stage here in flrst•rale style,and the cast includes the most accomplistuki performers in the troupe. There will be singing, dancing and Ethiopian eccentricities and comicalities. SIGNOR Birrz.—The Signor has taken Commis sioner's Hall, West Philadelphia, for this waek only. Those who desire to visit this great magi cian before his permanent retirement must do so at once. Grand Opera—Card of the Direction. Editor of the Daily Evening Bulletin:—DEAß Bun—ln announcing the last and farewell per formance of Grand Opera, the Direction takes occasion to congratulate the operatic public of this city upon the very brilliant, fashionable and eminently pleasing season which has transpired. During the past two years anticipations of finan cial disaster have led, on this continent, to avoid ing great engagements, and seeking, as much as possible, by reduction of expense, to be prepared for a less flattering state of operatic prospects. This policy foreshadowed its own doom. - Opera • languished, musical interest sought to find vent in oratorios and concerts, which, if less expen sive, wore,;o far, the beat of their class. Dia astroua operatic seasons were the_r_ule._and_com,_ Inca - eters even pronounced that grand opera in America had expired, with little or any chance of resurrection. No sooner had the musical centres of the whole country settled down to Ibis conclusion than the idea of combining and consolidating the chiefest musical notables occurred to this Direction. The result is patent to this public, and the polite amusement of the world la again as firmly planted in the. esteem of the dilldanli of this city as at any former period since the inauguration of this opera house. Indeed, few former seasons will bear comparison with the one which has just transpired. It is eminently a subject of con gratulation, and now that the opportunity pre sents itself, this suggestion seems pertinent. It goes far to disabuse the public mind of that bar barous idea that opera i s a luxury which, upon the slightest indication of the approach of finan cial stagnation, ought to be dispensed with. Amusement is a necessity, and the more polite and refined the order of amusement, the more , essentially is it a necessity. Many persons of narrow views entertain ideas opposite to "opera upon the ground that the artistes are extravagantly oaid, and draw com parisons between their remuneration and that of persons otherwise employed. Bat the extreme brevity of an artiste's career should be considered. And again; who ever heard of a wealthy artiste? The large sums paid are extravagantly and im mediately expended, anti the treasurer with his salary list becomes a sort of clearing house, where funds are merely transferred from the bank ac count of fashion into the ordinary channels of trade—the hotels, the newspapers, and the maga zines. . . The season .just closed presented a very large number of recognized artistes and virtuosos— perhaps a larger number than the same length of time has ever hitherto offered on this continent. All of the pro-announced artistes have appeared, and two additional engagements and appear ances have taken place. Unhappily, the serious illness of Madame rilrePf4 - noes• necessitated in a slight.degr.eo ado parture-from the announced repertory, but the optiraa withdrawn were more than replaced by the production. in unquestionable excellence, of La Traviata, Linda tiud Lucrezia. One opera alone, that of Faust, was announced as to be given in German. It was in anticipation to have preeented Ma ness. F ro rood noto opera, but her illness. properly attest by the eminent physician, Mr. u. P. Turner, who lil*B ltt attendance, of course precluded It. The very large and well studied chorus, tho un usually large and excellent grand orchestra, com prising kilo cklefeat instrumental virtuosos of the ' tABI IUSE El EDITS. day, and the very superb mounting 'and costum ing of the operas, servo to enable the direction to look back upon the season with feelings of the ivelkat pleasure and satisfaction. The season is especially indebted to the active personal exertions of impressario Max Maretzek, ior his constant and untiring efforts to give the operas with finish, point and absolute excellence. More itsthe Direction desires especially to ex press appreciation of the very large and fashionable attendana, and of the many and continued expressions of approval, of tiCisfae don and pleasure, which have liberally mot each successive stoke of the season, and have followed the production of each of the operas. And most earnestly does it desire to warmly thank the very able musical critics of the press of this city for their articles, which, hero coming largely from the hands of persons of experience and culture, have materially assisted in impressing the general public with the importance ,vt the season. Thus enumerating some of the points of satisfaction, and touching those omissions which may have been the subject of conjecture, it remains to sign itself, very devotedly, LEONARD GROVER For the Direction. 'PA Fl tIOJIM DISAPPOINTED LOVE AND ATTEMPTED SUICIIDE. —A young German, named. John Jacob Keich line, residing in Bodine street, near Colunibla avenue, attempted to kill himself between ono and two o'clock this morning. Ho is twenty seven years of age, and came to this country in April lea. He obtained employment as a weaver in a factory at Second street and Columbia avenue. Working at the next loom was a young woman of prepossessing appearance and attrac tive manners. A friendship soon sprang up between the two, and this friendship ripened into love upon the part of Keichline. The young woman, however did not seem to reciprocate the tender feeling. But Keichline continued to pay her delicate attentions, and visited her • several times at her home. On Fri day evening last ho went there and asked her to marry him. She refused. He became frantic, and told her that if she did not become his wife that that would be the last time she would see him alive, as he would blow his brains out. She still refused to enter into the matrimonial alli ance. The rejected lover then left. This morn ing, about one o'clock, he went to the housp of the young woman, on Norris street, below Tulip, and rapped three times on the door, at the same time culling "Mary," the Christian name of the woman who had caused all the trouble upon his mind. Mary did not respond to his summons. The raps were repeated, but still there was no answer. Then Keichline unbut toned his overcoat, drew from his Pocket a flve-barreled pistol, placed it over his heart and the trigger. The weapon slipped, and, the ball, instead •of passing through the heart, entered the body, about an inch below. Keichline fell on the step, where he was found by Policeman Pollock, and was conveyed to the Eleventh District Police Station. A physician was summoned, but all efforts to extract the ball were in vain. The young man was found to be dangerously injured, and was taken to the St. Mary Hospital.

FIGHT ON THE Ics.—Yesterdarafternoon a lot of the Schuylkill Rangers went on the ice on the Schuylkill, and crossed over to the Almshouse meadows. There a large number of boys were enjoying themselves on skates. The roughs made a raid on the juveniles, and robbed them of their skates and overcoats. Another gang of rowdies, who belong on the west side of the river, and pass under the title of llood hounds," came up, and seeing the situation of things pitched into the Rangers. For nearly an hour a lively fight was kept up; stones were thrown and clubs wore used freely. A number of individuals must have had sore heads last night, although, as far as ascer tained, nobody was seriously hurt. About the time that the combatants had got enough of their amusement, the Sixteenth District Police made their appearance. The crowd then dispersed, and the Rangers'espaped across the river, taking with them twenty pairs of skates and six coats.
