ESGLISII OPERA AND DRAMA

Botoninns Besin the Week at the Grand th "Dorothy," Attractively Cast. A Popular Sketch at the Tark, with Farcial Comedy to Please the People at English's Talk About Plajs and Plajers. The Bostonians, in English opera, will be at the Grand Opera-house on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evening of thi week, with a matinee at popular pncea on th last-named day. The repertorya particularly varied and excellent one will be thus arranged: To-morrow night. Alfred Cellier comedy opera, "Dorothy," with a cast including Marie Stone, Juliette Cordon, Jessie Bartlett Davis, IT. C. Barnabee, W. II. McDonald, Edwin W. Hoffand Fred Dixon; Tuesday evening.AnibroiseThomaa'a dramatic oper3, "Mignon," with Misses Stone, Cordon and Torn Karl in the cast; Wednesday matinee, Donezetti'a "Don Pasquale," with Barnabee in the title role, and on Wednesday evening, "Pvgmalion and Galatea," tho new opera which has created po much interest and won such high praise wherever produced. This opera was prepared for the Bostonians by Oscar Weil, etage director and librettist for that company. Mr. Weil does not claim the honors of authorship, though he has tilled months of labor in the preparation, the music of the new venture being by Ambroise Thomas and the libretto founded upon the wellknown mythological comedy by W. H. Gilbert. A Driest is introduced, and from him comes the curse of blindness which Cynisca, Pygmalion wife, calls down upon her erring lord. Introduced, also, is a chorus of Greek girls, women and men who have some of the best musical bits in the opera. In one important particular is the motive of plot and sequence changed Galatea, in the opera, is imbued with the idea that each day is a dream, and is therefore not prepared until the closing ectnes to appreciate the evil her naviete and ignorance of mortal customs and censures have wrought. The music had never been heard in America until the Bostonians gave it.having been written by AmbroiseThomas for an opera called "Psyche." prodnccd at the Grand Opera-house, Paris, in 1857. The ecenery Pygmalion's studio, a courtyard and the road to Athens has been painted by Walter Burridge. The costumes, designed by Hawthorne, of New York, and Mr. Weil, aim to eivo a correct picture of daily Attic life. The cast includes Marie fctone. as Galatea; Jessie Bartlett Davis as Cvnisca. Carlotta Maconda as Myrine, Josephine Bartlett as Daphne, Tom Karl as Pygmalion, II. C. Uarnabeo as Chrynos. W. ILMacDonald as Leucippi, and Eugene Cowles as the Priest. Mr. John Wild, a comedian who for years was identified with Harrigan's comedy productions in New York, and is an established favorite there, has recently appeared as a star in a new play, "Running Wild,7 with much success, in that city, and has started out on what promises to be a successful tour of the country. He will present it at English's next Thursday evening. The piece is on the farce-comedy order, and is said to contain much fun and pretty music. Mr. W'.ld has the support of a clever company, which includes Charles 31. Bradshaw, F. M. Kendrick. T. B. Butler. Miss St. George llussey, Miss Gertrude Fort and others. - Evans & Hoey ("ire and Old Hoss") are -underlined for English's the last two nights of this week, in that perennially popular farce-comedy, "A Parlor Match." It will be embellished by new mnsio and new specialties. Mr. Evans is a light comedian of excellent powers of expression, and Mr. liocy, in the part of the tramp, is one of the most versatile funny people on the stage. Miss Minnie French still plays "Innocent Kid," and the cast throughout is a good one. The advance sale of beats will begin on Wednesday morning. If there has ever been any doubt of the success of Miss Mary Anderson's engagement at English's the first part of next week, it was removed by the large advance sale of seats, which began early yesterday morning. There are yet excellent seats to be had. On Monday evening, the 18th inst., Miss Anderson will appear in the spectacular and scenic production of Shakspeare's "A Winter's Tale." and on Tuesday evening in a double bill, "Pygmalion and Galatea" and "Comedy and fragedy." Miss Anderson brings her own company of English actors, and all the original scenery, costumes and accessories that were employed in the recent production in New York city. During an absence from this country of two years and a half, she gained, upon the EnKlish stage, perhaps the greatest success of er whole career in a performance of Herrnione and Perdita in "A Winter's Tale." which was kept before the public from lMept. 10. 1637, to March 24, lSbcJ. By these performances, supplementing her impersonation of Juliet, and portrayals of Kosalisd. Pauline, Parthenia, and Galatea, Miss Anderaon has established her rank tirmly -and beyond dispute among the leaders of the stage. - The popularity of the "Bad Boy" sketches, by George W. Peck, of the Milwaukee Sun, haAlfWl to thfir rnrnHnrtinn in th form of a comedy, which, while it may not have any great dramatio pretensions, has made i in iifininiik.Tii ii r n i r i ii. 11.11 i www l i i i uaceo. me aramauzaiion was maae oy Charles F. Pidgen, of Boston, and it is said to be especially well done, and it is certain that the piece has ben one of the successes in t.h nnnnl.ir.nrirpri hnnM It. i full nf J m rvi 3 the most ludicrous incidents and "pranks" of that mischievous nrchin, and the intro- . duction of various musical specialties makes : it the more entertaining. The comedy will be gen for the first time in this city at the Park this week, begining with a matmeo to-morrow afternoon. It will be presented by Atkinson's Comedy Company, which inciunes sucd canauie comeaians ana singers as Master Fleming, who has played the "bad boy" several seasons, Jerry MoAnlitf, Warren W. Ashley, Master Havener. Miss Marie Heath, Miss Susie Fulton, fl. Harmoyne and others. The company carries a special quartet of singers. A convention of real live cowboys is to be the attraction at the Eden Musee this week. They ire there to illustrate wild Western ways .vid give an account of their personal experiences. The chief of them is John M. Sullivan, known to fame as "Broncho John," a man who has achieved notoriety as A frontiersman and Indian tighter. nl who is called "the kinp of cowboys." With him are otbers with such picturesque names as "Pony Bill." "Texas Dick," "Bndlo Bill," "Arizona Mike." "Injun Jim," "Ed the Kid," "Mustang beth," "Wild Jim," "Buffalo Dan," "Mexican Jack," "Horn Charley, n etc. Among the curiosities they exhibit is a "Builalo Broncho," an animal never before seen here. The Musee will have other new features besides the cowboys this week. It is open from noon to 11 p. M. daily. Gossip of the Stage. Mrs. I.angtry has surprise her most ardent admirers with her Lady Macbeth. It is her first attempt at the legitimate. It has always been supposed that E. II. Sothern was an Englishman, but instead he turns out to be a true American, born in New Orleans. W. J. Florence has told an interviewer that he does not retire from the stage for the simple reason that he cannot afford to: that he ought to be rich after forty years of acting, but is not. Edwin Booth estimates his profits this wasnn at S1W.000. Mr. Barrett will clear $75,000, because he has the company to pay and the transportation. Arthur Chase, who has a percentage of the profits, will net over 20,000. Good burnt-cork comedians are mighty scarce. They belong to the past. Scarcely a minstrel troupe on the road can boast of two good ones. As soon as some bright fellow does develop into some', ling, he either gets the big-head and kills itimself, or joins come other branch of the profession. Two more incident have recently been added to Kate Claxton's fatal connection with conflagrations. Her company waa booked to play at the Grand Opera-house, tu Paul, which was destroyed dv fire the f K ( f l-.T-A ll A n t m. . v. 3 mU.mm Renins, fche went to Chiao and waa to

have cone from there to lVilnth, but tho curious fatalitv attended her, as the operahouse in Duluth is also report.V burned. It is whUpered that a coalitu n between Joseph Jefferson and W. J. Kkyencc has been consummated, and that J a hn Gilbert nn.l Mr Irtl.ii Hrtr l.nvA liPOtV eUffaeed.

.The company will be known as t Jener-son-r iorenee combination. Mrs. i U,ruiri it is said, will head a company of" -her own next season. Alice Atherton is seriously ill in .Tendon, and her recovery is doubtful. Mis. . Atherton. as be m known to tho sta?e. is the, wife of Willie Edouin, the comedi; vn, and was tho shining light of "Dnmy' "Bevels," and other stage pieces. Miss Atherton was born in New York some th nrty" live years ago. Tom Karl is by no means elderly, yet he has sung a good many years, and attnbu.V s the retention of his vocal powers to ab stinence from late hours, alcoholic stimuv lants and overeating. Few would imagine,, lookinsr at him now. that when a youngster he was assured that he would die of con- i sumption before reaching his majority. fj Kichard Siahl's new opera. "Said Pasha," ! tins uceu pruuuceu lU kuuu uuaiucsi iu iao East, and is said to deserve to be ranked with the best, as equal to the best works of Von Suppe, Stranss or Millocker. while in some respects fertility of melodic invention, the development of the comedy element and the use of the ballet corps it surpassea the Viennese school of romantic opera. New York Sun: Miss M&ttie Ferguson, the young woman who is just now being so much talked about by theatrical people, haa been on the stage for three or four J'ears, but has not played for any extended ength of time in New York until this season with Mr. Scanlan. She is from Indianapolis, and was an amateur actress of some nitnrMi ability in a Western city before bhe came here. Mi-s Fanchon Taddock, Maggie Mitchell's daughter, is at present at school at Ham' burg. Germany, where she will remain about two years. Miss Fanchon, by the way, is highly accomplished and very beautiful, and lias no desire whatever to become an actress. This seems to please her mother very ronch, as Maggie never wished to have her children on the stage, however bo successful they mi ght become. The wide comment on Miss Mary Anderson's recent article in the North American, which contained severe strictures on those leaders of society who becomo actresses, it is rumored, has caused the fair writer much uneasiness. It was generally taken for granted that some of Miss Anderson's shots were aimed at Mesdames Langtry and Potter. It appears, however, that to counteract this impression, Miss Anderson has communicated with both Mrs. Potter and Mrs. Lane try, through mutual friends, and has assured them of her kindly feeling, and that she was not entirely responsible for the article, as she did net write it, but had given her name to it at the instigation of some one who interviewed her. Mrs. Potter declined to say anything concerning the matter. A writer says, in Truth; "I never had my hands in a thumbscrew or my body in a rack. The nearest torture I ever apfroached was fcoing up in a balloon. When first saw La Toaca,' however, I was almost convinced that the gentleman who is juvenile-lead, in t theatrical parlance, must either have his hair pulled by some stalwart scene-shifter or endure the agony of a troop of men marching back and forth over his corns. A more heartrending and naturally horrible series of stage 'Oh! oh's!' I never heard. The other night I chanced behind the scenes on business when the torture scene was in progress. Through a wing stage wing I saw Fanny Davenport suffering agonized experiments in facial expression, her eyes turned off stage, while right behind mo was the torture-chamber, in other words, Melbourne McDowell's dressing-room, where, seated before the mirror with a stick of carmine grease-paint in each hand, that gentleman was putting on bloodstains drop by drop, while his stentorian voice yelled Oh! oh!' etc., specially ascribed to him by the author. I am sorry now that I told that story. Amateurs who heretofore dreaded La Tosca' for its real torture scene will seize versions of the play and harrow society into temporary madness." BITS OP FASHION. For an all-around serviceable full-dress gown nothing approaches a good black real lace one. Very pronounced plaids in all fashionable colors will be much nsed for the costumes of girls and very young women. The combination of soft gray and shell pink will bo almost as much in favor for spring toilets as it has been for winter ones. The man who dares, appeared lately at a very swell function in a snirt with collar, culls and bosom of dead black, along with a full suit of dull white silk. The empire has conquered everything. Its patterns, small, firm and close set. appear in all 8t nfts from white embroidered mull to black Chantilly lace. A suit of amber ornaments now comprises necklace, bracelets, comb, shoebuckles, fan-sticks and belt, and when handsomely made costs altogether a very pretty penny. Colored English crapes, the same as the black wrinkled mourning fabrics, are much worn for ball gowns, of which they form the skirt and sleeves, with a low waist of velvet or satin. Silver-shot black silks for "second" mourning are novel and effective fabrics. They will be trimmed with jet and silver galloons or cut-steel passementeries, and fringe showing a mixture of steel and black. A wonderful Japanese woman is embroidering the gowns of Parisians with all manner of fowls. Strange to relate, tho rooster has become a positive craze, and it is said to be marvellously decorative without being startling. A charming little house dress for sweet sixteen is made with an open Spanish jacket of old-rose velvet, lined with pink. Tho bishop sleeves, extending beyond the pointed elvet ones, are of sea-green silk, embroidered with little moss buds, and beneath the cut-away jacket is a blouse to match, likewise wrought. An odd little collar turns down at tho back, this embroidered also and half covering a second deeper one of green velvet. Princcsse dresses and classic clinging toUets in Grecian fashion will next season rival the Directoire and Empire styles for elegant evening wear, and also in modified forms for carriage and promenade costumes. The "Koland," the "Grecque" and the "Henri 11" toques, severally, will accompany the Grecian dresses, and tho lady-like and elegant pnncesse bonnet, of perennial favor, will be a fashionable aud fitting accompaniment to tho pnncesse dress. Whatever change .may take place in the style of the corsage in tho near future," there is yet, generally speaking, no such a thing as a plain waist outside of Shakcrdom or tho convent. All are draped or garnitured in some fashion on one or both sides, down the center, or combining the three styles on one corsage. A single rever or two still figure on many, infinitely varied in shape and trimming. No two bodices produced seem alike, and all testify to the inexhaustible fund of ingenuity, taste, and originality of the modiste and the tailor. The difficulty that the designers of new wraps and jackets will have to overcome will be the still decreasing size of the tournure. On this the mantle of other seasons hung, in a literal as well as figurative sense. This is one of the chief causes of the long life of the hideous, far-archintr, wabbling caricature known as tho bustle. The mantle of the period was so shaped, and Eleated. and adjusted as to need this upolding and elevating. It will now have to be shaped so that but little terracing at the back will be required. It is quite likely, however, that a small, sly cushion will be hidden away among the back folds of tho mantle itself, in order to give it what the French tailor calls cachet. l i i i a. i u-.n;n.,-ir. 1. I Wanted to Glre Her a Testimonial. MlnDeapoUs Trlbun. Perhaps the prettiest, most attractive scene ever presented in tho opera-house was given last night. Seated in the tirst row of the orchestra circle was a ladv charmingly attired. Her face was attractive, but the most noticeable thing, and by all means the most pleasing waa the absence of a hat. She sat bareheaded throughout the performance, and every man seated behind her wished he knew her name and address that he might give her some substantial gift in appreciation of her courtesy and common sense. The citizens of Berks county, Pennsylvania, are excited over the fall of a meteor there on Tuesday of last week. It is roSarted to have been about thirty feet long, ef ore striking the earth it broke into three parts and then into fragment,

From the worn brow the lines of care had swept As if an an eel's kiss, the while she slept, Had smoothed the cobweb wrinkles quite away, And given back the peace of childhood's day. , And on the hps the faint smile almost said: None knows life's secret but the happy dead.' So pazlng where she lay we knew that pain And parting could not cleave her soul again. : And we were sure that they who saw her last In that dim vista which wo call the past, Who never knew her old and laid aside.

Sir Walter i'cott has not escaped the statistical juggler, and we aro given a lively idea of the former immense popularity of the great tscobchman'a romances. Down to 1856, there hal been printed of his "Life and Works" V,J?;6,SC9 volumes, reqniring V.),593 reams t)f paper, which weighed 1.245 tons. The People's Edition required 227,831 re ams, or 2,843 tans of paper. T no nnmbe r of sheets used waa lU0,542,4:J8,whichj laid side by side, wonld cover 3.3ia square miles. During the period when .Vcott waa editing the complete edition of iiis novels no less than a thousand person?, one-hundreth part of the population of Edinburgh, were occupied in the manufacture of the books. In other words, imagine a town, or Western city, of 3,000 or 4,000 inhabitants rinding their sole support in the mechanical production of the romances of one- literary man. ? r
