OPERATIC SOIREE. We are gratified to announce to our citizens, that inconsequence of the immense success attendant upon their two previous entertainments at the Masonic Hall, this celebrated party have made arrangements for defering their visit to Charleston for one more day, and wili give, by general request, another performance this evening, when will be presented one of the best Comic Operas ever written, viz The Elixir of Love, music by. Donizetti. The part of Adina will be sustained by Miss Brienti, which is sufficient to guarantee the excellent manner in which for singing and acting it, will be portrayed. Mr.

Manvers, as the Love Sick Nemorine, is perfectly at home and Mr. Leati, as the qua clc Doctor, is first rate; i In addition to this, Madame Lead, whose amena in the somnambula of last evening will not easily be forgotten, sustains her portions in the concert which orecedes the Opera, so that we may anticipate a rich musical treat and from past experience, we advise those who wish good seats to be there in time.
