Maurice Grau completed his opera bonffe season of eight weeks iu Havana on Tuet-day last and sailed, together with his company, for Mexico on Wednesday morning. Tho season was the most successful ever known iu Havana, the re-ceipts for tho eUht weeks being reported as amounting to 81 50,000. One of the recent musical arrivals in New York is Lugenio Mauricio Dengremont, the celebrated l.razilian violinist. Ha is only 14 years of age, but has, already made a triumphal professional tourof Europe and Brazil. He is generally regarded as a musical prodigy, ire brings hiscompanv with him.

and proposes to make the tour of the United states, giving concerts in the principal cities. "Les Coutes d' Hoffman," Offenbach's last work, is being carefully rehearsed at the Paris Opera Coraicjue. The prima donna, MUe. Isaac, is to sustain therein five different characters, one of them being that of a singing doll, and she is studying carefully tbe peculiar jerky mechanical movements of an automaton. This scene is taken from the same one oi Hodman's tales in which the ballet ot "Coppelia" was founded.

Mr. Edward E. Rice and R. D'Ovlv Carte announces that they have arranged i'or the exclusive right to produce Messrs. Stephens and Solomon's nautical opera, "Killee Tavlor," which is crowding the Imperial Theatre, "London, fd its Utmost capacity nightly.

It is pronounced by the English press to be the rival of inafore." Extensive preparations for its immediate production at one of our New York theatres are iu progress. The French musician, Crudes, composer, of several operettas, of which tho "lieile Uourboa-nasie," at the Folies J)ramatiqus, aud "Girou-ette," at the Fantasies Parisicun' had a certain success, has become insane. His mental derangement was remarked during a rehearsal of the review in preparation at the Nouveautes Theatre, of whicii he composed the music. Tbe form assumed by his madness is a belief that ho had come into possession of immense wealth, and a mania that he is aa object of persecution. Sew Musical Publications.

COKE'S OR BLACK'S The Paternity of an Anecdote In Dispute sxt "WnahiiBflr ton. The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Times says in a recent letter: When Judge Dlack was hore to attend the wedding of his grand-daughter, Miss 8hunk, aud Lieutenant Evans, he unintentionally started a topic which has now become a favorite subject ior discussion when two or three legal minds are assembled at a State dinner. Judge Dlack told ine the story, and 1 bave.repeated it to many, of the motto on the attorney-general's official soal, which the judge had placed upon it when he was attorney-general in Duchauan's administra-tiog.

The motto is: "Qui pro Domina Justitia seijuitur" who prosecutes for our lady Judge iilack says that he made use of this remembering the story which he asserts Sir Edward Coke tells of his Interview with O' Elizabeth when he was taken to 'kiss hands" for his patent, and as "llcr majesty's attorney-general: "QTiI Domina Retina "sequitur." Fiizabeth replied with emphasis: "Nay, by God's teeth it shall not be so; we must change that he shall be my attor-nev-aenoral, qui jtro Domina jmuit'ia nequitur." As Judge lilaok cannot now remember where he found the story I appealed to a number of tne highest oflicers oi the government, all of whom have the reputation ot grtat knowledge of the law nud its literature as well, and not one of them had ever heard the story before except one to whom Judge Black had-told it, and none had ever seen it in any of Coke's works. Therefore, as I have been informed by one present at several state dinners lately, tbe topic has been much discussed aud the burden of proof now rests upon Judge Dlack, who is more than suspected of having originated the Coke-Eliza'oetli inter- view. It is generally conceded that, whether-ha formed it or imagined it, the story is an excellent one. Several of the judges of the Supreme Court are re-reading Cokes works now, I am told, aud also "The Lives of tha Lord Chief Justices of England" to find the anecdote, and Judge Swayne is so annoyed at not being able to point to the volume wliere it is told that an eminent jurist says he does not believe ho will bo able to write his resignation this winter. "Well," Somebody Smiled.

Yesterday's account of the arrest and return of Sarah Gibbons, the North Eud siren, contained one discrepancy, that caused many members of the police department and friends of tho party concerned to "smile" in a decidedly loud way. The article Intimated that the uni'ortuuate individual who lost his money was Zachary T. Stevens. Now, in itself, this seems straightforward, but when we explain that Mr. Stevens is the arresting othe.

in the case, and that by one of those curious errors that occasionally occur in the hurried editing of news his name wars substituted lor that of Othiel O. Ramsdcll, the real sufferer, it is no wonder that the "boys" in the department took it as a huge joke. Officer Stevens thought it rather fuuuy business for a police officer to be engaged in.
