Covent Garden managers tried an experiment
lately, And brought out an opera for the dis.!
plav of Signor Bottero's • peculiar humor.:
Although the Signor cable Wrth. a great repu-•
tation, in a character acknowledged his rafts

promo limo was exhausted by one reprasenta-:
non. Moreover, .at, thb same performance the

*., * "When less rich in, the personal

when compared with the barrenness upon
which opera has . now entered. The . pros

list of prime donne; a list, so strong that, . the
management did not , even think it, worth

knowing full well that the promises
of a prospectus bind to nothing. True; the

(thanks be to the accident of 'Madame Patti's .
"Zerlina"), Faust and 11 Barbiere, with a result,
showing that; the directors wel l know their
preference-public. Here; then, in this subor
dination of art to artists, we have . one con
sequence or the system which makes opera a
mere.creature of fashion."
The same writer pays a compliment to New
York :
"The objector will prObablY•declare that no
other system is possible, without a resort to.
'the continental plan of a state subvention.*
Unhappily for him there is an America,
which explodes his argument by the simple.
logic of facts. The New York managers have
no subvention, ainlyet.they contrive to give
satisfactory entertainments at: prices . ranging.
• from one, to two dollars. Their entertainment
, may not suggest Covent extravagance,
amt the performances tall below the Covent
Garden standard; but New York is no place to
tolerate Meanness and Inefficiency."
, Then follow Some suggestions ; -
,^ "Betthe manager be tree from obligation to;
eoneillate any one clas.s;'and lot have the
fullest liberty to.act upon the'. general likings,'
and dislikings.., In brief, put him on the same
footing us his dramatic brother; and; if he be
permitted to run a good thlng for a month he
may Make compensation by not running a bad
One for, a night. • ,L
" In the next place let the art be put at least
on equal terms - with the artist. No "audience
will be unjust to the claiMs of the latter, but a
Musical audience is likely to insist upon some
attention to the former,preferring that works
should be selected f orintrinsic merit rather
• than, accidental agreentent with a performer's
poWers. Under such"eircuMstances a Bottero
would have to servo the higheSt of art per-•
pimps, instead of that which. is no higher than
himself: The arrangement would render im
poSsible, not only Don liucefalo, but also the
wearisome repetitions of shallow works chosen
because they enable the 'heroine to • 'bring
down" the house by toni . s.deforce.
"Again, popular opera - should' avoid super
fluous expenditure. For relays of artists be
yondwhat might be .necessary to keep up a.
good` Working company: no demand would
arise, While the costlymagniticence which has
for years absorbed solarge a portion of Mr.

-r-According-to-a-correapondent - of:the - Boston
Traveller, there is great excitement in Ala
bama over a bunt for ..Captain Kidd's buried
treasure. The, writer says:
When tike were at Mobile searching for the
lines of earthwork which were erected at the
time it.was besieged, we fell in with a speci-
Men of the "poor whites" of the South. He
folloWed us wherever we went, scrutinizing
closely every movement we made, and ex
claiming every few moments, "What on
airth ar yer looking arter forts and
things for which have ;.long since been
dug away ?" In spite of all our endeavors
to make him believe that all the purpose we
had in wandering over these fields was to find
inhere a fort hail been, he still claimed the
privilege of doubting our word. ToUrard
nightfall, after he had been with us nearly
five houni, - he began to give out and com
plained. of fatigue and hunger, and at the same
time asked anxiously when we intended to go
hack td the city. Taken with the fact that we
bad not asked him to go with us, and had been
. for five or six hours anxious to get rid of him,
this anxiety in regard to our movements
rather surprised us. We kept on, however,
and walked for an hour, with him puffing be
hind, doing our best to "tucker him out."
Finally be sat down upon a little mound, and
demanded if we thought he was made of "dog
gored hard iron."
"If you are tired, I should advise you to re
titrn,'lsaid .r; rather coldly.
"Now, look'o here, stranger," exclaimed he;
"PM are a Yankee, and them's mighty smart
fellers. And I know that no Yankee o' your
size would be foolin' round in these bushes
without be was arter snnthin',"
"I have told you what I was after," said I,
shortly.
"I I:iu believe as much o' that as I'm a
mind to, can't I?" said ho, scowling. "I know
what-ye are later, and so ye might as wellown
it,for yer can't lind it unless I sees yer any
how, if it kills toe." •
We laughed at that idea in real earnest, and
4LSICCd him what he supposed we were after.
He only answered ouruestions with the
childish expression of .'•I know," declaring
at the same time that we might as well own
up, "seeing as how we was caught." At last,
when he saw that we were not going to own
np, he put an extra quill in his mouth, and; as
near as we remember, the following conversa,
lien occurred : •
Yer arc arter money, that's what' yer are
arter."
• ho," laughed we ; we wish we were.

with ihem,.and tried to prevent a fight, but
in tainileth men rose to their feet, and
placed laieniselves in threatening attitudes,
when Carr drew an open knife, somothing
like an old ;Barlow knife, and holding the end
of the handle between his thumb ,and
fingers, dexterously threw it at 'Wycoff;

entered his heart and stuck there. He ut

'John Brnen, 'who killed William Buck, at
Succasunna Plains, N. J., on the 24th of.) uly,
while suflering from an attack of insanity,
was removed yesterday to the State Lunatic
asylum at Trenton. A Medical, Commission

him • liable to convulsive 'fits. He ois
unable to exercise self-control While sintering .
from these attacks, and is, in the opinion of
