OFFENBACH fTroanslata flprotibagegaollEcrielix.qementhi "Lives Musib possestes the gift of ennobling all with which it comes in contact; through its power the silliest words become of import ance', and the lowest ideas lose their vul garity; Round and rythm render those move ments of the body harmonious and even de emit, which otherwise would present them selves but as aimless contortions. A dance, without music, can scarcely be imagined, so absurd would , be the spectacle. flow strange then, that a gift, iv) marvelous, should be designedly profaned and systematically trans feimed into a parody, as fatal to the public taste as it is degrading to those who have given it birth and drawn profit from it. Bbame upon such excess! We are far from wishing to proscribe the Opera Bouffe; it is of that character in which the natural spirit of the French can have full scope, and take the greatest liberties; and after the solemnities of the serious opera, we can gratefully repose upon its graceful but slightly developed melo dies and light and pungent instrumentation. But there is a limit to all things, and this iiMit once passed, the savour and charm is gone. Jacques Offenbach was borne at Cologne on the 21st of June, 1819, of Jewish parents. One member , of his family was a chorister in the Synagogue of Cologne, and published in that city, in 1838, with a preface and the tra ditional melodies, the chants which are co n- Memorative of the flight from Egypt, and which are recited in all Jo wisn families during the first two evenings of the feast Matzoth. Jacques Offenbach spent the years 1833-4 at the Conservatory of Music in Paris, and then returned to his own country; but in 1842 he visited Paris and made his debut as a violin cellist at concerts. Even at this early period of his career he showed his originality, and manifested a taste for parody and eccen tricity. lie soon sought to perform bold tricks with his instrument, rather than to draw from it beautiful sounds and graceful Melodies. Judging, no doubt, that the sounds of the violincello were not sufficiently agree able, he imitated, more or less successfully, those atlas) violin, the hurdy gurdy, and even of thaeiva:liarp. He was particularly good in his imitation of the bagpipe, by means of a dormant note,and this excited the enthusiasm of the honest countrymen who formed, at that time, the majority of the audiences at concerts. In 1847, through the influence of Madame Augustine Brohan, he was called to the position of leader in the orchestra in the Theatre Francais, displacing Mr. Barbereau. The deplorable condition to which this or chestra had fallen had become a bye-word. Offenbach determined to make it the starting -point for his fortune. Re re-organized the band, and commenced by composing some iiiifing but graceful pieces, which were in tended to predispose the audiences for hearing J ibe comedies which were usually presented. Be gave a foretaste of his after compositions at the Bouffes-Parisiennee,by parodying many ,of La Fontaine's fables, such as the Grass - ,hopper and the Ant, the Fox and the , Orow, the Cobbler and the Financier,The Bat, The Milkmaid, and these publications Were crowned with a certain degree of Imo 'Acesa. , In one respect he was deserving of es . pee ls' honor, and that was the manner in which he caused his orchestr to execute ilie 'beautiful music composed by Goulod lon the chorus in the tra i y of Ulysses, written by Ponsard. In ne, 1855, Offen ' bitch reached the acme of his desires; he hid a theatre of his own. He obtained the right of conducting the Bouffes-Parisiennes, which be located- in the Champs Elysees; and having secured the services of some authors to pro vide him with libretti, none but his own music was henceforth given at the B milks Then was reproduced the long forgotten style of music which had been heard at the fairs of St. Laurent and St, Germain, but without the lightness, the archness and spirit of Ric coboni, Panard, Romagnesi, Le Sage, Fan ner and Orneval. At this period the words of his productions were without doubt ob jectionable, but they were seasoned with a sauce that gave them an air of respectability; they were also of sufficient literary merit that , they could be retained in the memory without - , difficulty, and the satires and sharp hits soon bCpfirile proverbial sayings. Les deux . '„ A tio*g/es and Hue nuit blanche were the •WO pieces at-the opening of the new theatre. , Yee deux At/evil/es obtained one of the i-greatest successes .of our times, which was 'is== 41:ROL must be said to a:great extent, ..to itto t I bitilionertiV two of thorperformers,•Derthii liiisindPnideau. operetta, tia!, words of which are by ilnles g9IIIIIIIX, was tepee.: suited for the first time : On the,22d of Febrn arY) 3 8 86 ' ", '`) - • , , "Dana as periu....vre vi malbetirenso, Pour l'avougle, point de bonheur; Toujoura SOWy toe tocithres affrenees; Ail 1 combien mill a de malheor I (jne lea cha.,..ritables peraonnee deit'nt nue mane au malheareux.

As with the 'words so with the music, it is beyond analysis. It consists principally of some dance movements familiar to all. • With the, summer the prosperity of the Boutfes-Parisiennes, disappeared. Offen bach then installed himself for the winter in the Passage Choiseul, in the little theatre, which, through the infantile pieces and phantasmagoric representations there pro duced, had so popularized the name of Mona. Comte. On the 25th of December, 1855, the new saloon, thoroughly renovated, was opened to the Parisians. The fertile composer gave there successively in 1855, Bata-0%13,6nd the Violoneux. In this last work, the words of which are by Mcstepes and Chevalet, there may be especially remarked the couplets, Con omit, conscrit, je *Ws consorit, the rondo of the violinist, and a military duett. In 1856 Tromb-al-Cazar, the Postilion en gage,the Bose-de Saint-Flour, the Finan cier et 'te Savetier, the Bonne d'enfants, the Trois bailers du diable were contri buted to the support of the new salon des Bottles. All these pieces have the character of consanguinity; both in the words and the range, there is the same musical and literary buffoonery. For example, in the Bose de Saint-Flour, an operetta in one act, words by Michael Cane, the cabbage soup,on which hangs the whole force of the plot, has not been seasoned with attic salt; because Mar cache, the tinsmith, has thrown into it one of the shoes which were brought as a present to Pierrette by his rival Chapaillon, whilst adding-a bundle of candles., instead of lard. One can thoroughly appreciate the perfume of this, p, set off as it is by the Auvergnese song, the words of which are well known : "None itions ni famines ni feminea, Now etions tons des Anvergnats 1" =NE k 4HE DAthy,,p, ypipjci> BULLETIN-11111.4DELIEHIA, SATURDAY, *pm 6,186 . 9. Chapellion is preferred by Pierrette. The wrath of Marcachu, the Achilles of Saint- Flour, manifests itself by the destruction of the furniture and dishes. In the midst of all this hubbub there is distinguished, with some little difficulty, a very agreeable romance and duo. If we continue to ran over the reper toire furnished by Offenbach to his theatre, we shall find many works whose names alone are sufficient to indicate their character. "66," an operetta in one act, produced July 31st, 1866, is a pleasing composition, not wanting in sentiment. The Tyrolean Franz thinks he is in possession of the number which is to win in a lattery,the fortunate 66, and therefore rushes into a thousand excesses, even forgetting his betrothed Grettly ; but he finds that in his haste he has mistaken 99 for 66. Farewell then to all his projects of grandeur, and all his wild fancies. There is nothing left him but infamy ; but his good friends console him, and pardon him for his moment of forgetfulness. Tee music is agreeable, and were is especially a melan choly romance and a joyful tyrollian, which form a graceful contrast. As to the Crogue fer, ou le Dernier des paladins, this absurdity in one act is rather wearisome and has been somewhat derided by the public, in spite of the eccentricities of his Squire Boutefeu, of the Baron Mousse-a- Mort, of the loving Ramasse-to-tete, and of the beautiful Fleur- de- Soufre. The subject has been treated con amore by the impres sario composer; the instrumentation is much worked up, and there is a quintette, written with decided ability. His next work was Orphee aux Enfers, which was played on the 21st of October, 1858. This is a gross and grotesque parody, which commences by transforming Orpheus into a violin teacher giving lessons abroad, and finishes with a most indecent dance. This is the whole plot. This work has had an immense success every where, which has lasted for several years,and which can probably be renewed at any pe riod; it has brought to its authors emolu ments of all kinds, even the honorable notices which the government voluntarily bestows upon successful efforts, although not always upon the beautiful, the good or the useful; all of which has been the signal for the pro duction of other pieces of' the same kind, and all the theatres have been inundated with this species of composition, to the great det ; iment of good taste, character and art. It was not difficult to perceive that a dreary path had been entered upon, but the impetus had been too great to be curbed. This unre lenting system of buffoonery has replaced all the purest sensations; and emotions of the heart by excitements of the worst character. Dance music has been culled in large quanti ties from all parts of these operas. Many of these melodies are wanting in neither charm nor originality, did we should gladly accord them an artistic position, were they not asso ciated with souvenirs and scenes of the most grotesque and indecent character. Offenbach next produced Daphnis and Chloe, an opera in one act, on the 27th of February, 1860; this is a parody of Longus's charming pastoral. Borne of the melodies have been iavorably received by people of taste, among others Chloe's opening air, a pretty romance, Mcrae en fermant lee Yeux, Nerea's song and the trio in the flute lesson. We shall only mention by name the Marriage aux lanternes, the Chaste metamorphosee en femme, Mesdames de la Halle and Ge neviive de Brabant. The next popular operetta of the impressario is the Chanson de Fortunio; the words are by Cremieux and Julee'lier ' res; it was brought out -on ihe tith of Janus 1861. This music is graceful and elegant, and in these respects it far surpasses the words, which are common. The air sung by Fortunio, which has become popular, is written to words by Alfred de Mueset : "Si voce ereyer. quo je vais dire, Qui Yoso miner, do ne Enurols, pour nu Empire, Vous la nommer." The Pont dea soupira was represented on the 23d of March, 1861. We only remark that .ileMlo , g. , 4#NNkintlßV/i# the *bet unrestrained scenes answer tuffs lugubrious title.

The Carnival, of Venice serves as a finale to this piece, traniforining it into a wild bacchanal, as usual.'•• Offenbach then presented the Apothecaire of .Perruquier and the Voyage de Dtutananpere of fils, both comic operas in two .ants,. which were played on the 22d of March,.lB62. The bar carole, A Venezia to, bells has left pleasing remembrances. It Signor Fagotto was represented on the 11th of July, 1863, at Ems, in the theatre of the Oureml, and after wards at Paris, in the Opera l3ouffe. Among the most applauded pieces we may mention the opening quartette and the final sextette, whose composition is attributed to Signor Fagotto. The Roman Comique was played on the 10th of December, 1866. But little of this work of Scarron has been re tained by Offenbach, but the title and some of the characters. Some parts have been writ ten with great spirit, especially the finale, Lxecutons presto, presto! Offertbacb,who had bad the peculiar notion Of opening a competition with his company, and offering prizes and premiums, travelled through England in -1867 and Germany in 1858. In 1860 he hazarded the experiment of a ballet in the opera,.which he entitled Le Papillon, but with entire Want of suc cess. Barkottf, which w as risked in on the boards of the Opera C r omique, received the reward it merited from a theatre in which it was out of plate:', - 801xi, however, is re sponsible for a large part N' its failure, as he bad the singular idea of Making theltero of the piece a dog. The habitual of, the Opera Comique, who,. by-the-bye, are not difficult to please, protested against 'this sham being permitted in the Theatre of Guignol, and Sends, in the Revue des Deux-Mcm,des,was very severe in his criticisms,, calling it "a litter of pups in three acts." After having given up for some time the direction of the Bouffes . Parisiennes, Offenbach again assumed control of it, and presented many new pieces, . among others Lischen et Fritzehen, an operetta in one act, the words of which are by Paul Dubois. This was first represented on the sth of January, 1864. This little piece has obtained the greatest success. Fritzch,n, a poor Alsacian peasant, murders the y‘ing's French so outrageously that his mast-W*ls him out of doors. While he is bewailing his sad lot, in a moat comical manner, he meets Lischen, a youthful vendor of email brooms. - Both speak a language so extravagant that they become mutually frightened; but peace being soon made, they become thoroughly reconciled to a pretty waltz movement. The duet which they sing on the words, Jo suis Alsaeienne; je Buis A isacien, is an agreeable melody, and the audience is always kept in good hu mor with their wit. The ovsrtnre is grace ful, and the broom song, and the fable of the town and country rat, sung by Lischen in broken French and German, are, with the duet, the most acceptable pieces in this amusing opera. We have still to speak of La Belle HOlMe. This burlesque composi tion, which has been played at the Varieties since 1864, has run with an unheard-of suc cess which nothing justifies, and which as suredly does no credit to the French taste of our times. With the exception of the instru mental introduction, wherein there is a pretty solo for the hautboys, all the rest consists en tirely of dance movements and musical ab surdities. The music is, however, in har mony with the words, and its character of grossness in full keeping with the low char acter of the Parisian rabble. We feel ashamed at being present at such pieces, and to justify ourselves we cite two or three of the amusing tricks and send our neighbors and friends to see them, for we feel the need of having accomplices in our degradation. In a certain world Theresa's audience was recruited in this manner. The Grand Dueliesse de GOroistein has also enjoyed the privilege of attracting crowds, although the music is still less interesting than that of the works preceding it by the same composer. Such was the mad excite ment which this piece caused, that thdraetw to Paris the ds Universal Exposition of' 8 almost all the Sovereigns of Europe, the Grand Duchesse received the most unex pected visitors. In fact the words of Boileau, whereby he describes literature in its deca • deuce, can well be applied to the character of music which Offenbachhas rendered popular.

The St. LOUIS Republican says : On Wednesday last a strange-looking party, visited the office of the Chief of Police, and during their stay the following particularei concerning their history were given, and in a manner so simple that no doubt of their truth could be entertained : The mat's name is Kimball, and his com paniona were big wife and child. Ia 1644 hel -j was captured by the Indians, when on hi way to California, and carried into the Inte rior. He was not treated cruelly, but hi 4 escape was carefully prevented, and years, elapsed and 'he remained still a cap tive. Gradually he became accustomed to Indian life and half reconciled to its wild free dom and savage accompaniments. After eight or ten years had passed he met among the Indians of another tribe a young Ameri can woman, who, although not only resident but thoroughly domesticated among the savages, retained the marks of her parentage. We need not describe the incidents of their intimacy. Love vows are quickly consum mated under such circumstances, and in duo time Kimball became the husband of the Indian-American girl, and they continued to live among the Indians, enjoying a fair share of happiness. Kimball learned that his wife bad been captured on the frontier when a child, but was so young at the time that she retained no remembrance of her parents or friends, or of the circumstances under which She was carried off. "In the course of time the husband, who bed learned the Indian langnagei\tangl4t ih oft ;rife to speak-Engllo, and c ell''Seirigieetl i le, glee lee,Y *tine thewsittinetiVer the'etimp fire and taWMg of the strange deathly whietr't. has shaped'tbeir lives .l It la nOt surprising' that they ultimately fratned the ,desire oCre- I gaining civilization. ^ The birth of their child made the father more anxious' to 'carry 'this into effect, and he has at last succeeded, his wife accompanying him. On reaching the frontier they were without money, and , were , considerably-delayed, but finally managed to reach this city. =The man's intention was to reach, if possible, Spring:field, Illinele,where, he says, he formerly had some relatives, and then, if be could obtain some means, to go on to New York, *here he had a brother living. Their visit to the Chief's office was in search of transportation to Springfield, and they were referred to the Mayor's office. "Kimball is fully versed in Indian man ners, and exhibits also, we regret to say, a truly savage proclivity for 'fire -water,' other wise whisky. He can give the war-whoop dance, Indian dances, and, in addition, per forms sundry athletic feats which are quite remarkable. We must not forget to add that he and his wife exhibit thear liveliest a contented ffection for each other, and apps and happy.

HAVANA, March 4.—The Mario has the follow-, lug news : In the Eaiterh Department the insur gents, in considerable numbers, have coneen-' - trailed at the town of MaysrL . The troops have, marched from Santiago de Cuba to' disperse them. In the Central Department an engagement took place between the government forces and the in surgents, near Santo Espiritu. Nineteen rebels were taken prisoners, twelve killed, and many wounded: The government loss is not given. A large number of insurgents are reported in the vicinity of Cienfnerzos and PalmLllos. The roads are blockaded, and no sugar la cowing In at Cienfttegos. < AU the loyal citizens in Sagas dis trict have been compelled to abandon their houses in consequence of the depredations of the insurgents: - HAVANA, March 4.—The treasury depart ment advertises for proposals from ship owners to furnish transportation for 315 political prison ers, who are to be taken to the penal station at Fernando Po. „There was a profound feeling of sorrow among the friends and relatives of the prisoners, many of whom belong to the first families of the island. But the measure is excusable, when it is can- Wend that their transportation will save them from dangers like those by which they were threztened on Sunday last. when the volunteers demanded, their death. General Dolce has or dered their removal in consequence of the in tense pressure which is brought to bear upon him by ultra Spaniards. It Is_conflitenUy expected, however. that the home government will autho rize the release of a majority of them soon after their arrival at Fernando Po.

'Mier Ydag, Mar " 5.-The Herald's special of to-day says that on Thursday of last week the rebel-Bregadier-geeeral Arson was taken prisoner and brought to &via. when:, he was shot on the following Saturday. A fight had occurred between some colored vol unteers and a band of colored - insurgents in the neighborhood of Santiago, in which seventeen of the latter are reported killed. Another Railroad War. A despatch , from Elmira, N. Y. (March 5), says : "A war has broken out between the Erie and the Northern Central Railways. The Northern Cen tral usea the Erie track through and on each side of this city. Last evening orders were received by Division Superintendent Pratt, of the Erie, to allow no trains of the Northern Central to come on the Erie track, thus cutting off the Northern Central from• its connections north. The switches were accordingly spiked, and all passage of thh Northern Central trains stopped in either direction. No reasons were as. signed for tbia extraordinary procedure, and the railroad. men here are as much in the dark as to the cause of the difficulty as anybody else. It is stutaised that the trouble grows ont ail hitch be tween the two companies about the prisseasion of the Fort Wayne road, as a connection to Chicago. Thediffieldty still continues, and no trains are passing oti theliorthern Central. Aninjanction was panted this. afternoon to prevent :the Erie from obstructing the passage of the Northern Central trains, but as yet no change has occurred in the situation. Leading officers and directors of the two roads have been in consultation this afternoon, to effect a settle ment. A train on the Northern Central, with four hundred passengers, from Washington, ar rived at the break this afternoon, about a mile below the city, but could go no further. They were obliged to take the Erie train, repay their fare, and get home by , such roundabout roetes as were open to them. The traveling public is suf fering great inconvenience." eh:minted for the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. riOUBIIIIOLD SECIPES. BY nAnom unman. Communications on Salads are flowing in copiously. I draw upon them. Here le our first, from M. Beancanard, of Paris: he says he has given his name to a comp Sand of boiled potatoes, salt herrings and hard eggs and onions, oiled, vinegared and seasoned with salt and pepper. I beg his leave to omit the onions, escept for those charmed by the odor of this vegetable. From Ardennes, a correspondent "signing his 11111110 against the grain , ' recommends a ham salad that be declares good for body and purse. Take dandelion leaves in prime condition; put them over a gentle Stein a deep dish, with boiled potatoca cut in slices, season with pepper and pot herbs, then sprinkle with the fat of nam or salt pork melted and slightly browned in a skillet; lastly with vinegar also heated. Stir well and serve hot. The dandelions are only warmed over the fire, not cooked. From Port-Louis "an old salt" lends a tribute to "my little kitchen," a truffle salad. Take, Gaye he, a fourth. part of a Gruyere or Parmesan cheese and a grated truffle, six hard boiled eggs chopped fine, a pinch of Cayenne pepper, twospoonfuls of Dijon mustard, six spoonfuls'of vinegar, eight spoonfuls of olive oil, a little pounded ham; salt and pepper—mix and season with curled endive, enriched with thin slices of truffles. This is a great salad.—Petit -Jonrnal. Waeavatione• at Bereaanaemia to be . !resumed.. King Victor Emmanuel has ordered the re sumption of the excavations at Herculaneum, and an annual grant of thirty thousand francs is added to his civil list for this purPose. The Sing has also undertaken to provide for the maintenance of a pupil.* the Archeological School of Pompeii . A. correspondent writes: "The earliest researches were instituted in Herculaneum, with what magnificent results we may see in the National Museum at staples,or in the pages'of the Angichita di Prooktno (commenced in 1767, during the reign of Charles ILL, and extending to nine folio volumes). But partly from the hardness of the material in which the ruins are imbedded, sand partly also from a fear of endangering the foundations of the modern town of Portal, the works were discontinued and "transferred to Pompeii, where the labor is , far easier, and, therefore, more remunerative.
