Introduction of Senator Rill for Repeal of tbe Law Establishing: the Martin Griffin Before the Opinion of the Law and of the Defends the Constables and Recommends tbe Repeal of the Prohibitory Law.

I REPORTED FOR THE BOSTON The Joint Special Committee on the State Police gave a hearing yesterday morning in the Green Kootn, upon the bill introduced by Mr Fuller, of tbe Senate, in relation to the repeal of the law concerning State Police. In stating his reasons for offeriug the bill, Mr Fuller referred to the arbitrary and fluctuating operations oi the State Constables as a reason why the force should be abolished. Speaking of the seizures made at the Tremont ami Sherman Houses, he said that just as soon as the Legislature should adjourn this enforcement of the law would die away. The men engaged in this business were open to bribery, and the arbitrary and unequal enforcement of the law was notorious. Again, the State Constabulary and the Municipal force were in collision and Ibe former should be abolished, even if a new one should be appointed.

The law was so enforced that it was in advance of public sentiment, and was tbe occasion of corruption and pet jury. He objected to the sneaking way in which evidence was obtained lor illegal liquor selling and favored a police force of some independent character, and would have a license law well enforced. But the first step was to remove tlie present Constabulary. REMARKS OF HON. MARTIN GRIFFIN.

Hon. Martin Griffin, recently one of tbe Board of Police Commissioners, was present at tlie invitation of tlie Chairman, to express bis views as to the expediency of retaining or abolishing tbe State Cou- stabnlnry, which he did in an address and reply to questions, occupying nearly two hours of the s. ot tbe Committee. Mr Gnftin first gave a history of the force, stating that at the lime of its establishment, in he was in the Senate. The establishment ot the force grew out of the attempt to estab- iitdi a metropolitan police for tbe city ol Boston.

Gov. Andrew bad the bill drawn a substitute for tlie Metropolitan bill, and it was passed in the and then sent to tbe House, where it was introduced by Mr Sawyer, of Natick. There it was passed by a vote of wo to one. The Bill was opposed By Mr Pitman, tbe Chairman of tbe Committee, and it was also disclaimed by the gentlemen representing the ten perance party. From the very moment when it became a law until the present time it uas received the grinding criticism of friend and foe.

11 was never a perfect act ol legislation. While pretending to be prohibitory the agencies and men that should have been given to make it an effective force were withheld, and it could not accomplish the end that was sought. Mr referred again to own experience in tiie matter, and said that in when a bill was introduced to inciense tbe torce to 150 men, only 50 men were allow ed, and claimed that the Legislature had been sincere in its profession it would not have withheld the means for the execution of the law. Allusion as also made to the last annual report of the Commissioners, in which they fora large increase ot the torce anil also for an increase of constabu- laiy powers giving them the rigid to send tor persons am) papers while making invc-tigation; the speaker. tins same Prohibitory Legislature rc- liireii to give us a single thing, but even went so far as to come very near abolishing the Commission, lacking onlv one vote in the Mr Griiliu then took the ground that the force is corrupt only trom the inherent lault in the system on which the law is based, and said that while there is such a law as the Prohibitory statute tiiose who execute it will surely be tempted, lie claimed respect for tlie men'on tbe force, and said that in accepting their positions and executing tbe law they sougut to make me toree honorable ami respectable, and were uot the fiends and r.iscals that some people seemed to suppose them.

He also said that with as many cases of investigation as the Commissioners had made they could not prove corruption in any oue of them on account of the nature of tlie law. Tiie inherent tendency ol the law was to lead men into temptation and make it easy for them to yield. While such a law was executed or attempted to be executed men upon I he force would be tempted and would fall. There was a total want of system. In fact, the Commissioners knew nothing of tlie doings of the officers in Berkshire county except liorn the records sent them.

They can have no personal experience. In reply to the direct question if he believed the officers ere corrupt, Mr Griffin replied that they were and must necessarily be, and trom bis own personal ex perience be believed that they were corrupt to as great extent in the country as in the city of Boston, tlie only difference being in the opportunity. The present Prohibitory law was injurious to tlie cause of temperance and to public sentiment. Dr Stone asked him how long be bad entertained that opinion, to which Mr Griffin replied that it came from his endeavors to execute the law. said Dr stone, "while you were trying to execute the law, and at the sanie time wavering between tbe two opinions in favor of or against tbe Prohibitory law, you were in much the same position as Pat was, who, when he was in doubt as to an animal be was about to shoot at, so adjusted lr.s gun that if it was a deer he would hiLit, anil if it was a calf he would To which Mr Griffin replied: your terseness were asolear as wig, I might lie able to answer He then said that tiie Commission should Be abolished, and the responsibility should rest directly upon ihe Governor, who should have the apnointiiK tit of the entire force.

In his view the Prohibitory law was beyond public sentiment, and not in he interests of the cause ol temperance. He admitted, however, that a force for general purposes, without any such law as the present Prohibitory law for them to execute, would be of service. He did not, however, recommend any particular kind of a law, but said there could not be a worse system than tbe present, and that it was his opinion that a law would be better than this. Mr Griffin also stated that he hail always been in favor of tbe fullest execution of the present law. He alluded tbe conduct of the Alliance, which body bad de- eland that he bad been tlie great hindrance to the execution of the statute, while the records would show that he had in no case failed to favor its fullest execution, and he challenged them to show a single int tance, by the records ot the Commission, in which he failed, or hesitated to commit himself to that policy.

Referring to the action of Wednesday, in the seizure at the hotels, he said that it was his opinion that the officer who made the seizures acted under his own individual responsibility, and that it was not the result of a determination on tlie uart of the Commissioners to go off on a new course, and that tlie order did not come front them as a special, but that the seizure was made under the general order. Tbe speaker then said that the temoerance men ol the Legislature disclaim all responsibility for this force of officers, and that the Alliance by its officers utterly disclaimed any interest in it. Their records would show that they tail repeatedly denounced tlie action of the Commission in executing the law, and only two months ago Dr Miner took occasion to pronounce a general judgment upon the Governor, judges, commissioners and constables, and then only a week or two ago passed resolutions endorsing the action of the Commission when there lias not been a single change made and everything, as tar as it is concerned, runs on as before. In reply to a question why the Voston Constables were discharged 1 ist Fall Mi Griffin said that ostensibly they were discharged for corruption and for not executing the law. He bail argued that the reason why they did not execute the law was that the officers supposed that they were executing it up to the standard required by the Commissioners: and also that if tiie Boston officers were discharged foi a uon-execution oi the statute, all the Constables in the Commonwealth should bo discharged npon the ssine ground; that the law was ex- cuted in Boston precisely as it was in every other city and town in the Commonwealth; that if these men were to be discharged lor not executing the law by going in ith these second offences as nuisances and seizing tbe same principle would apply in every case.

He dissented from the idea that all tiie dealers in liquors had centred in Boston because they could not operate outside, and took the ground that there as much liquor being sold and drank throughout the onimonwealtb comparatively as there is in Boston. The real reason for the discharge of tlie men was that one of the members of the Commission believed that certain Boston officers were corrupt and ought to be discharged. Some of these men were excellent officers, and were no more guilty than the men woo wished to discharge them. there was a difference of opinion upon that point, and the result of it was that the inmis-ioners decided to discharge the Boston ofti- rGnffin refusing to vote against his conviction. Mr GritKn then alluded to tbe figures given by Supervisor Simmons on Wednesday, by which it was intended to show that ihe traffic is earned on only in Boston, and that the remainder ol the State is a perfect paradise of temperance.

He took occasion to show By the evidence ol persons called before them, that there is as much intemperance in tlie other portions of the Commonwealth, and as great sale ol liquor, comparatively, as in Boston. To the inquiry of Mr Thayer, it lie knew how many of the 7030 places where liquor is soldare in Boston, Mr Griffin replied that lie know nor care, if it was their purpose to show that all the liquor was sold in Boston, he should ask the question, how much of that sold in the city is curried to other places in the Commonwealth for retail trade. He would venture to say that one-half the sales in this city were to dealers in country towns. In reply to the claim that is made that the Prohibitory law bad Been on trial lor twenty years, lie it had in fact been in operation only ten years; and with regard to the other assertion, which lias been frequently made, that a License law had been tested ten years, he answered that a License law had been tried only one year, in 1808. and that that was no trial at all.

His reply to ti statement that the liquor traffic was the cause of the acts of the convicts ol tlie Mate Prison, he stated that men were not sent to prison for the usual crimes which arise from intemperance; but that great crimes, those committed by burglars, murderers, thieves and forgers, required that a man lmve a cool head and a steady nerve, which intemperance did not tend to produce. In conclusion, he reiterated his convictions with regard to the abolition of tbe present law and tbe establishment of a license statute. The time for adjournment had then arrived and tbe Committee adjourned this morning at 10 o'clock, when it is understood that Gen. Bates ill make a statement of his opinions. Art lecture on Art Education was delivered by Prof.

Walter Smith, yesterday afternoon, in the rooms of Lite State Norma! Art School, on Pemberton square. Tlie subject of the discourse was the true greatness of great men. The lecture botan Bv defining tlie different ways which greatness is manifested, and that when we speak ol a great man, we imply a person who has fixed for our guidance a standard of excellence. The distinguishing features oi greatness in anv profession or calling i- first an intense love ut work; second, an indomitable courage, and finally, perseverance. Tlie only sign of genius is love of work.

The most celebrated men of tbe world, painters, sculptors, musicians and warriors, were all great workers, and no person ought to expect to become great in a profession or liade who does not begin the work nobly, and with a courage to persevere to tlie end. Prof. Smith then briefly reviewed tiie life of Michael Atigeio, John Phillips Turner and Dickens, showing that the great secret of the success ot each as entirely due to their courage and love of the work in hich they were engaged. There is a certain amount ot failures to be gone through with betore success can eveu be hoped for. Sir Isaac Newton and Michael Angelo met with numerous failures belore they won world-wide fame.

Again, said Mr Smith, greatness is accompanied by modesty, and a man who has discovered the profundity ol his ignorance may be said to have faith started on tiie right road to success. The lecturer related incidents in the lives of 8ir Isaac Newton, Michael Angelo and the Duke of Wellington, showing that though each were masters of their professions, yet they always evinced a desire tor study, and th.it they persevered in their pursuits to the close oi life with courage, labor and modesty, elements which alone can constitute true greatness. I the tate enate yesterday afternoon, the Committee on Horse Railways reported a bill to allow tbe Metropolitan Railroad to increase its capital stock to an amount not exceeding $2,500,000 in all, and that they may issue bonds bearing seven per cent, interest. Tbe bill to authorize the New York Mutual Life Insurance Company to uold additional real estate in this Commonwealth was passed to be engrossed. Tbe resolution concerning the Cecten- al celebration at Philadelphia was discussed at some length, several Senators objecting to urging upon Congress any large expenditure the present condition of the tinances of the country the resolution was finally passed by a vote of 22 yeas to i3 nays.

In the House, the Committee on Public Charitable Institutions reported a resolve appropriating $50,000 tor enlarging the Lunatic Hospital at Taunton; the Committee on Mercantile Affairs reported against tbe petition ot the Bunker Hill Monument Association asking that the 17th ol one be made a legal holiday the bill to authorize the Maverick Con- OR8E bales mixed Horse superior qualiiy, i.ow lanoing fiom lurk trom Buenos Ajres. and tor sale by LARKIN, STACK POLE i State room 10 tf SHUTE VPlshinslon St. FURS THE POULTRY SHOW. Third Annual F.xhibilion of the Massachusetts Poultry Opening Night-An Attractive and Varied Exhibitors, Etc. FOR THE BOSTON The great success which has attended the two previous exhibitions of the Massachusetts Poultry Association might well stimulate the members ot that body to unusual efforts in order to make the display of this year more extensive and interesting than ever.

Certain it is that they have now succeeded in placing before visitors to Music Hall a larger and rarer display of fowls and pets than has ever been shown in the city or State before. The quality as well as the quantity on exhibition shows an improvement, and in noise the collection would rival a moderately large boiler shop in full operation. There are about a thousand entries, numbering nearly three thousand fowls, as well as a large collection or pigeons and other birds. The coops are arranged in tiers, two or three deep, extending in rotvs along the sides and centre ot the ball, and also encircling the lower gallery and covering all the available space on the platform in front of the organ. The hall is decorated with lines of evergreens pendent from the ceiling ami festooning the galleries, while plants in pots are placed about tbe room in a way to relieve the monotony of the innumerable coops.

The birds are arranged according to their breeds, and thus an excellent opportunity is afforded tbe spectators to judge ol tbe relative merits of tbe specimens presented. In tbe exhibition tlie Bantams. Leghorns aud Ilam- burgs take tbe lead, the Asiatic varieties not being as far in the van as two years ago, and the other varieties, though showing improvement over show, not displaying it to such an extent as those specified, lu the Bantam department are specimens ot the Seabright, Japanese, Black and White Rose. Duck wing and Game varieties, tbe most extensive euterers being William E.Jenuiug. of Newton Lower Falls, and William B.

Newbury port. Tbe interesting little crentnres are as bright and interesting as ever. Going down tne hall, on the ight hand from the platform, are found the Plymouth liocks, an essentially New England variety, and tlie lloudans, of French origin, the latter being a class rapidly growing in tavor. Tbe Dominiques, La Fleche and Creve Cteurs, all French varieties, follow, M. J.

Ellis, of Norwood, making a very handsome show. Ot Brahmas, whicb come next, a very creditable exhibition is made by Charles E. Tuttle, and the entire show of them is enormous. Here are the dark varieties which, from imported stoek, were improved in England, and the light ones, vrhich have been more thoroughly up in New England. Murtevant Brothers, ol South ramingham, and J.

P. Buzzell, of Clinton, are large exhibitors in this class. Turning into the next row Incubator is found, a machine which attracted so much attention last year. Eggs in various stages ot incubation are in position, and during the exhibition will undoubtedly add to the extent of tbe exhibition. Tlie Dorkings, both white and huff, are placed side by side with the Cochins, oi which many varieties are represented.

W. H. Brackett, of Boston, has many lxantitul Partndge Coehins, and C. L. Copeland, ot Miiton, has many coops oi white Cochins.

Black Cochins, entered by A. E. Swasey, ol Taunton, and others, and enormous buff Cochins, many of which are entered by Mark Pitman, ol Beverly, take up several rows, and add their cackles and crows to the universal din. There comes next a coop ol so-called Frizzles, the queerest burn-yard fowl imaginable, the foatiKo of which turn ihe wrong way aud make the birds present a sailly bedraggled appearance. The Polish show, ot golden, silver and black varieties, is extraordinarily large aud line, and claims the attention next.

Following come the Sultans, with their peculiar white mohcaps, and tho white-crested Polish, whom tiiey somewhat resemble, Mr if. J. sperry, Hartford, President of the Connecticut State Poultry Association, shows here ten coops of the pure white, white-crested Polish variety, whicb are remarkable for their beauty and perfection. tV. E.

Jennings, of Newton Lower Falls, also contribute line spec inn as to the Polish department. Coops ot gray, blown and white Silkies, with featiiers like long sent hair, are shown by E. B. Reynolds, and peculiar and tancy appearance are reported as laying well ami making excellent mothers. Proceeding to the rear of the hall a remarkably fine exhibition oi Aylesbury ducks is found, looking as white aud sleek as if in tbe water they love so he Italian crested and white Muscovy varieties are numerously repreeented.and in one coop are two peculiar Egyptian geese, long-legged and solemn.

ayuga aud black Rouen ducks came next, and a pair ol swans of great beauty. Handsome specimens of tlie White Call, Mallard and colored Muscovys are shown, and further under the gallery, almost indistinguishable iu the gloom, are the rich, creamy-looking Embden geese, peculiar gray and white China geese, a pairoi Bronze turkeys, and a pair ot California turkeys oi a most exquisitely shaded lavender color, which attracts universal attention. Ascending tiie platform the first department to be inspected is that of tlie pigeons, and the looker-on is fairly puzzled to comprehend the different varieties. Ranged at tbe Back part, cages upon cages, are numberless entries of pouters, English trumpeters, fantails, capped, tumblers, Jacobins, breasters, spotted, swallows, archangels, (unfits, Dutch, nuns, owls, Autwerps, Darts and a host ot others, which present a very beautiful appearance, and are well deserving of particular inspection. Prominent among those entering in this department are Messrs II.

S. Ball, of and E. H. Hero, of Milford, each of whom lias a handsome show. The other birds upon tlie plattonn are the chief attraction, however, on account of their peculiarities, there being a magpie, sweet-voiced canaries, golden, silver and English pheasants, showing oil'to great advantage; a gorgeous gold-neck parrot from South America, a modest peahen and magnificent peacock, some little California quail; a cage, which are gathered goldfinches, hulfinches, canaries, and cardinals; and last and strangest, a square built, positive-looking bird of a vivid red color, called Red which lias a peculiarly sad anil sorrowful expression as he intently watches an observer's every movement On the platform also are red and fox squirrels and Madagascar, yellow and gray rabbits.

Ascending into tbe right band gallery, the Black Spanish variety is found first, aud the exhibition in this department is said to be the best one made. But for a truly line exhibition, that ot tbe Ilamburgs, which come next, is hard to be surpassed. Pencilled, silver spangled, golden spangled, black and white Ilamburgs follow one another in coops after coops, one of the most prominent exhibitors being W. E. Sliedd, of Waltham, and all tbe entries being remarkably tine.

Tbe end gallery is given up to game fowl, the champions oi the exhibition, and the entries have been both numerous and superb. Sumatra, Chairburn, Dominique, Leghorn (entered by A. Low. of Essex), Duck Wing, Georgia, Ginger, Earl of Derby (exhibited by W. E.

Coffin, of Boston), Red Pile, Malacca, and other varieties, stalk proudly about in even ttieir confined quarters, and seem to long lor battle. The other side gallery is entirely given up to Leghorns, the brown Leghorns making the best show, although there are many cages of rod and white ones, which are noteworthy. Altogether the collection is one that cannot fail to amuse and instruct the visitor. The coops were mostly got into position yesterday afternoon, and the various com- miitees at once began their work, and by the time the hall was opened to the general public, at P. most of tiie premiums bad been awarded, but it was then so late that the Executive Committee could not finally pass upon them, and consequently they will not be given to tbe public, officially, until noou today.

Tbe attendance of visitors during the evening was quite large, and there is every reason to believe that the result of tbe exhibition will be thoroughly satisfactory in every sense to the Association. some length, the members of the Committee on Elections giving their views upon it, but a vote was not reached. he New England House, kept for the last twenty-eight years by Lambert Maynard, passed on the 1st inst. into tbe bauds of Mr Joel Gray, late proprietor of the well-known City Hotel. Mr Maynard retires from business, and carries with him the -ood wishes of a host of friends.

Mr Gray retains at the New England Mr Collins, so long and favorably known to the patrons of the house, and who will as heretofore take charge of the office business. dd regular semi-annual session of tbe R. W. Grand Lodge of Massachusetts was held at Odd Hal! in this city, commencing at i) yesterday morning. A large number ot Gtand Officers were present, and a very large representation trorn over one hundred lodges.

The Committee on New Members reported on eiglity-three certificates, and they were admitted. From the report of the Grand Secretary, it appears that there are now in this State one hundred and five Lodges, and that about one thousand memliers have been admitted during tbe six months, and that the total membership is nearly eighteen thousand. The report ot the Grand Treasurer makes a very favorable exhibit of tlie finances. The Grand Master in his communication speaks very highly of the condition ot the Oi'ier at the present time, and that it was very flourishing, a continued interest being manifested in its progress. During the past six months be iias instituted three new Lodges, and one old odc has been revived.

He has also dedicated three new balls. He complimented the District Deputy Grand Masters, and stated that lrom their would appear they had paid particular attention to the Lodges under their charge.

Hoosao contractors for the work at Hoosac Tunnel were heard before the Committee on Hoosac Tunnel aud Troy and Greenfield Railroad, yesterday forenoon, on the subject matter of a I etition asking tor relief. It appears that in 1872 tlie Mianleys received $350,000 from tbe State, of which $150,000 was cash and $200,000 in State certificates of indebtedness. The State at present bolds $1,100,000 which is due tbe Shanleys for work done, and there remains $800,000 to be earned on tlie Tunnel, which can be done for The Shanleys now ask tl.at they receive funds wherewith to carry on tlie work, the State certificates not being easily converted into cash, which was necessary for the prosecution of the work. A controversy lias arisen, however, as to certain arching.

The State Engineers say that 1800 feet of the Tunnel, west of the central should be arched with brick, and a certain portion of the eastern division, which Mr Shanley thinks would be 145 least he wou'd arch that number of leet if it was bis own private undertaking. The contractors deny that they are Bound to arch either in the central or eastern sections, and say that not until within a comparatively short time was it mooted that they were obligated to do any work of this kind after the Tunnel portals bad been arched. The estimated cost of the arching under dispute is $300,000. Mr Allen read from a copy of the contract to show what was expected of the contractors, but arguments were postponed till a future day, when tbe Committee, who have the matter advisement, will give another heating. The Liquor was a holiday tor the city detail of State Constables, aud with the exception of some routine office work the officers passed their time in rehearsing the incidents of their victories on Wednesday.

The question which seemed to be ibe topicof conversation among the Constables last evening as whether or not they had oxceeded their orders in making such large seizures.

Smith and others, whose goods were seized in a similar manner to those on Wednesday, and were returned by order of the Court. to the question whether or not the raid on hotels and places where large quantities of liquors are kept was to be continued, an official in high position at tlie square office said, to be sure there will be no let up Wednesday afternoon, while Constable Hinckley was engaged in removing tlie liquor from the wine cellar of the Tremoni House, lie came across a number of decanters and other vessels containing brandies, which lie was about to consign to tbe State store-house, but upon being informed by tbe guests ol the hotel that lie was trespassing on their private property he returned the liquors to tlie owners with many apologies.

Mr Hunnewell, of Ward Nineteen, answered the gentleman's inquiries, and said that it had been purchased by the town of Brighton before the vote of annexation was passed, and he believed that the officers ot the town had done nothing unfair In the matter. Air Crocker, of Ward Six, suggested that if the sale had been in any manner a fraudulent one. the city might repudiate it, which they perhaps could not do if the city committed itself so far as to give ihe teuaut notice to quit.

Until that task is eompleted.it will be impossible to determine precisely wbat the nature of the suit against the firm will be.

Dr Church, coiner of Berkeley and Marlborough streets, last evening, the subject being the needs and ants ot Boston hospitals. Hon. George W. Warren presided, and after a few introductory remarks presented the name of the New England Hospital tor the consideration of the meeting. Mr Babcock, in behalf of that institution, stated that tbe idea in establishing tlie hospital to give young women an opportunity to bcome versed in medical science, and also to teach them the proper method of nursing patients.

The hospital was mainly supported by benevolent and religious societies and individuals. The institution was sadly in need of contributions, and he hoped that enough would be forthcoming to cancel wbat little debt had accumulated from various causes. From the report ol last year it appears that up to October 1st bad on admitted dircctlv, 395 had been admitted to the Temporary Home, anti 2905 had heen treated at the Dispensary. Mr George William Bond, in behalf of the Female Medical College, made an eloquent appeal for public chanty, that institution being heavily in debt. He gave a brief history of the college from its inception up to the present time, giving tiie cost of construction of the building and its liabilities at the present time, also the advantages to be derived by young omen who enter the institution.

The next speaker was Dr Norton Folsom, of tlie Massachusetts General Hospital, who gave a brief history of the hospital, and how it was supported. Many people, said he, suppose that it is a State institution by State charity, whereas such is uot the case, tiie oinnionwealtli, although contributing to its support, leering a minority of the Trustees. Au abstract of the reiiort ot last year was read showing the number admitted and treated, and tbe number of out patients treated, also who were entitled to admission, aad how to obtain it. In reply to a questiou by a lady, the doctor said that nurses received from $13 to $20 a month, and night watchers $22 per month. Tne ity Hospital was next represented bv Dr George H.

Lyman, who also gave a brief synopsis ot the report lor last year. The hospital was for that class of people who were unable to enjoy the benefits of a private physician, and dining the past year tnis class of people had increased to a large extent, in fact so much so that, the hospital had heen overcrowded a great portion of the time. All of the speakers were in favor ol larger contributions from societies and ndividuals for tlie benefit ot these institutions which were a necessity, ami which if not supported by public charity would fall. A Lawsuit for Three is stated that tiie Stanley-Colt lawsuit is soon again to appear in the ourts.

this day and evening. BOSTON MUSEUM Little BOSTON Grand Italiau Lucia di HOWARD The Monster of St. Michael." Italian Less than half a house attended the production of Verdi's last evening, and the best representation of the season, thus far. was given before an audience which, for numbers and brilliancy, was equal to neither of the two preceding nights. The history of this opera, written to order for the Khedive of Egypt by the greatest living composer of the Italian school, employing the services of antiquarians and poets in Its construction, and mounted ami performed at Cairo at an immense expense, is well known.

The story which it illustrates has also been often told. It is that of the unfortunate love ot Radames, Captain of the Egyptian hosts, for Aida, daughter of the King of Ethiopia. Amonasro, who is brought to the Court the Pharaohs, at Memphis, a prisoner to Egyptian prowess. The action takes place Memphis and Thebes, during the time of tlie Pharaohs," a period covering more centuries by many than the opera does hours. At this indefinite lime, when Amonasro is brought in captive, Aida is a servant in ihe royal household, loving and beloved by Radames.

Amneris, daughter of the king, ts also In love with the young captain, and very naturally resents his refusal of her hand in marriage when the ofler is made by Pharaoh as a reward of success Id tbe Ethiopian campaign. Her Jealousy finds means for vengeance when she overhears Radames confiding to Alda the route by which her father may escape from captivity to his own land, and she forthwith denounces the captain as a traitor. The hierarchy condemn him to be buried alive ai- a punishment, and the sentence is carried out iu the vaults under the great temple of Phthah, where Alda secretes ner- self to share the fate of her lover, while Amneris faints In re- morselul despair on the tomb. A subject more fertile in opportunity tor musical and dramatic effect could not be chosen, and composer aud manager have been equally liberal In cultivating it. The opera is entirely distinct from any other that Verdi has written, showing not only a study of the Wagnerian style, but a decided tendency to its adoption.

Iu fact, Verdi has cast to tne winds his traditions and the ideas of his school, producing a work so entirely from Trovatore" or Ballo in that it might have been written by another hand. While this may iu some measure be considered an improvement, it is noticeable that lacks the salient popular features tdat have made Verul so general a tavorite. But although of melodious Jingle there is little in this opera, its musical character ts more complete, tlie orchestra, in accordance with the tenets of tho new school, is associated more intimately with the drama, and there is a more finished and consecutive tone to tlie work as a whole. Whether it will rank as greatest composition, remains for later years to tell; hut there is no doubt as to its Immediate interest as an illustration of his talent as matured by the absorption of new ideas concerning the lyric drama, A highly interesting feature oi the performance of last evening was the inlroduction of Mile. Torrlani in a role well adapted to the display ol her truly remarkable talent.

The voice and the culture of this artiste may now fairly be- classed among tlie highest. In none of the exacting numbers of this opera was she toiiud lacking, either in power, execution or (Iran atic fervor. In the very trying scctia of the first act she a quitted herself In a manner to gam the immediate favor of the audience. In the duet with Miss Cary, in the second act, she participated in the honor of a recall, aud iu the dramatic scena which opens tne third act she won an enthusiastic encore. These tributes to her merits were deservedly bestowed.

Signor Campaulnl was iu better voice last evening, and gave more satisfactory indications of the vocal powers that have been claimed lor him. Although showing iu the iast act decided traces of the hoarseness that afflicted him on bis first appearance, his earlier numbers displayed in most gratifying manner the superb quality and compass of his magnificent voice. In the romanza Celeste his singing was especially notable, ami the duet of Radames and Aiaa In the third act was loudly encored. It is to be hoped that before the season closes we maybe privileged to hear this tenor when entirely free from the influences of tins hostile ciimate, for the extraordinary beauty of his organ and the sterling merit of bis method have been made quite apparent under these difficulties. Miss Gary has never belore appeared in a role so well calculated to call out her greatest powers, and her perionuance last evening was thoroughly satisfactory in every respect.

The first haff of the fourth act, intensely dramatic as it is, is carried almost wholly on her shoulders; and there, as in the duet with Aida iu the second act, her sltigiug aud action called forth bursts of enthusiastic applause. Signor Del Puente gave a new and admirable creation to the operatic stage in the character of Amonasro, the Ethiopian King, preserving the distinctive characteristics of his role, while also singing with excellent eftect and making fine dramatic points. His meeting with Alda and the duet In the grove of Isis were especially notable. Signor Naunelti, as the priest Ramils, and Signor Scoiara, as Pharaoh, although having subordinate parts, may be credited with doing finely what fell to their share. The chorus sang better than on either of the previous evenings, and the orchestra, except for its surprising strength in some places, notably when supplemented by tbe band upon the stage, contributed well and largely to tbe eflect.

But uot only was the musical part of the performance unusually well given, but as a spectacle tbls opera will rank favorably with any upon the stage. The costuming was resplendent, the dresses ot the principals being works oi art in themselves. Signor tine figure displayed the glittering helmet and cuirass, the greaves and the breastplate of the Egyptian Captain; Mile. Tornani blended the scarlet and gold of the Ethiopian Princess in a harmonious costume; Miss Cary would have done credit to any Pharaoh in the graceful stateliness of her manner of wearing the robes and crown, aud Signor Del Puente conceived the idea of wild Ethiopian royalty In his peculiar as iu liis action. The chorus was also costumed with remarkabU liberality, much attention being given to details which, whilo no one can confidently assert them to be of the at least aid the imagination in completing tbe picture of ancient Egypt.

The finales of the first two acts surpass in magnificence anything before seen here on the operatic stage. I onsiderable new scenery Is ad ied, but the chief eftect is due to the massing of such numbers of appropriately dressed boristers and supernumeraries on tbe scene. The stage is rowded at the finale of the second act, after tbe triumphal entry, and the soldiers at the back, with an array of spears, bucklers and banners, the throne and its attendants, the full baud posted on one side, the ioag antique by the way. the performers cannot exactly command as the priests, the prisoners and tlie lull assembly of glittering principals, make up a scene of unusual impressiveness. It is not tnat, with music befitting the scene, the audience demanded the curtain to be raised after its tall, and would not be satisfied until Signor Muzlo responded to the call belore the curtain ith the other artists.

The house, indeed, was unusually demonstrative, honoring the ettorts ot all the singers, and, after the first act, never allowing tne curtail) to descend ithout a recall. Miss Cary, after her great scena in the last act, received a beautiful floral structure in the form of a yacht. The thinness of the bouse detracted in no tnaimer from the warmth of the enthusiasm, and the performance was one to be most pleasantly remembered. This evening di Lamnermoor" will be given, with Madame Nilsson in her great personation. ilssok arkwei are at liberty to announce that Madame Nilsson wiil make tier farewell appearance in Boston, after tlie close of the opera season, at Music Hall on the evening of Wednesday, Feb.
