Tbe re-openlng of the Winter Oardar, on Uohilay evening, Olh Inst, under Uie manaiemont of BIr, Mark Smith and Mlaa Knily Thome for a ahon auramer aeaaon, wu welcomed by a brilliant gathering, both In point of number aud character. As the performers appeared, each one waa received oDlhualaatlcally by an eager audlonce; and we nnietdo the'perfnrmera tlie Justice to say, that they exerted thaniaelvea saceessfnlly to Juatlfy Iho warmth wlUi which Ibey were grfcled. The company, In fact, made a moat favorable Imprcaalon. Tbo bill of tho evening pre- •onled Tom Taylor'sfavorfto comedy of "Mine Polnia of Ihe Law." The piece was well played on the opening night of this eelabllah. meni, and continued on the bllla au tbswMk. Mr. Sol Smith (sun of "Old Sol") made bla Qtat appearanae In this elty on Ibis occa- sion, anpcArfng oa the lAwyer In the comedy. Tho aldoaplltling farce or "Wanted 1000 MlUlnors," was slao clven. In wbtoh Dan Sctcbcll appeared In hie Imly Inimitable Impenonatlon of Mad- ame Vandorponts, a character In which ho haa no rival on tlio American alage, HIa make-up for this part Is one ot tbe bCBt we over BAW, Mrs, Unrk Bmltb, who haa been abaont from tbe Me* tropolltan boarda for aonio time, rc-apnoared, aud by her oarefiil acting aud general falUifnlneas to the obaiactera aaeamcd, made a favorablelmpreaalon.

Daring her prevloua ahort slay In Uila clly, ahe won golden optnlona* She was moat enthuslasUcslly received on heireii<rr, and played with much aplrit throughout the entire piece. Meaara. Mark Smith and "Dolllo" Davenport, two eapeclal favorite wllb Broadway audiences, aro two of the principal features of this company, and deaOrvedly bo, for they are both clever artlala. Throughont Ihe week tho aome bill waSplayed, and Ihe attendance was falrlo middlloi). This (Monday) ovenlng, 13th, a new burlnsqae, on' titled. "Lesfa, tbo Forsook," la announced for Ibe first time. Alao, a new light comedietta, never before oclod here, entitled .^CoUromla Diamonda." The Thnmb-Mutt-Wamn pigmy trio have at length, after • long time a' lorrying, left tbe Uuseum, and on tbe 13lh are an- nounced lo appear atStamrord, Conn.; 14tb. Norwalk; 10th and 101b, Danbnry ;andontbel7ihandI8lhal Bridgeport We bad a peep at 'em Thnraday afternoon, heard Lavhila sing, saw Thumo dance, and Kutt ' do .the Pilgrim Fathers burlesqae—all very good In proportion to their wolgbt and Incbos. Wnalevar ago Mra. SIraltou may bo, her volcoand prcnundallon of words In the alnglng are thoao of a child, bntber aellona have an air of dig- nity quite emnalng. Now that thellUputlana have gone, Sanford's Opera Troupe, who made their flrat appearance on the 0th, afler an absence ot nine yean, will get tbolr full share of tbe public approbation. The troupe poaaesa latent mnch above tbe aver- age, and tho two end men, S. 8. Sanford and F. Myers, ar^ r^ "artlala," aa Johnny Lyng would expreasit Whether In Irlah, Dutch, or Negro borlcaques, Ssnford, Myers, snd Haven can't be beat—Ihey are a aort of Btliloplan trinity, Tho duett, "Lar board Walcb," by Meeata. Wllllama and IIaII, waa Indeed excel, lent: bnt the gontlemanwho aang "Vive la Amerlcx" put on a "leello" too many moUons, and not very expressive ones either. E. J, Turner's "tfo One to Love" seemed to atrtke homo, olven as It waa with ao much feeling. Ihe remaining members or tlil* wlddy known and popular minstrel baud sll proved themaolves alara In their different characters; and aa for Samlvel 9. Eanford —he'a a comet of tho first order. On Friday afternoon and eve- ning next, tho proceeds of this ealabllahment will be reserved for tbe eepedal beneSt of Mr. S. S. Sanford, which will be Ihe flrat.heneflt that has tsken placeat the Museum for quite a uiui, bar of years. On tbe nth Inat we were shown one of the handsomeat prs- aonU ever made to a public performer, coDBlstlng of a boautlfhl banjo made by &Ir. H. 0. Dobeon of thla elty, and of tbo well- knoirn Dobeon Dros. II waa gotten up bytbe order OfMr. Wm. T. McDonald, the well-known sporting geaUeman of Baltimore, and owner of Flon Temple. The Inatmment coat 1100, and Is Intendedaaa preaent to Mr. Nelae Seymour, of Wood'a mlnatrsls, one of the best end.men In tho profeaalon. The handle of the Instrument la solid roaewood, sU beautifully and Ingonlonaly In- laid wllb pearl and papier eucAe. The keys are hilald with pearl, tbe drom la clasped with silver bondo, and Is flnlshed In Ihe blgheat alyle of art. On the handle la a silver plate with the following InscTlnllon;—"Presented to T. Ndaen Sandeisoo by bla friend Wm. 'f. UoDonald. July, 1603." Taken altogether, for beauty of flotah and power of tone. It Is the finest Instmment wo evor saw, and one of which Noise may well feel prond. Ur. Dob- eon la alio making a tambourine of like bcanty and finish, for Mr, Dsn Bryant, we are Informed, to be presented to that artist by Mr. MoDonald. On tbo 0th, a grand eompllmentary teatbnonlal waa tendered Jane £ngllab, the fOlr mansfleroas of Laura Koene'a Theatre, on whiob occasion all Ihe allncha of the ealabllahment, aa well aa a boat of outside talent, volimteered tbelr gratullons servlcea sa a mark.ofeateemtoonewho, byhor'IndofflltablewlU and perse- verance, had kept open In spite of much oppooltlon. thle eatAt>- Uabment, and tbus'far carried It successfiuly aloug. The bill eelccted tor tbla occaalon waa a kind of ano/fo jfdriila one, coO' elating of a laughable comedy of "How lo Avoid the Draft," In which Mr. Bradshaw and Mr. Uctaoaky, ot tho Dowery Theatre, appeared, followed by the eocond act of the "Wives of Parle," In wlUch were a variety of performances. Flrat come Alexandre Zonfretta upon the tight rope. In which he exerted hlmaelf to the beat of his ablllly. Ue waa tolloweil by tho renowned Bosl- ta, who made eome very difficult af well as' erocefal perform- ances oo'tlio Mpe. The very pop'aiar doiurau, Eale Feiuoyer, aaelated by Mona. Augoste, appeared Inapoidedeuz, and gave general aatlatactlon to all preaent The Star alaters, Anguate and Marie, two of tbe moat gnceful daicors on the atoge, ap- peared In a Fellah dance, whlon waa exceedingly well done, an4 ellelted great applauae. Vmt A. Mailer's vloLIu solo was one of the tealnres ot tbe evening's performance. He. Is a flrat dsas artist and can draw the bow eqiial to any mnalolon we have en- gaged at any ot our theatres. This waa tellowad by more dan- cing by H'lles Jennie and Ella, and Mlai Calla. Taken ollo- gether, Iho benefit waa a great suecesa, for the house was veiy crowded, and everything went off exceedingly well. The seuen ended on Saturday night the Uth. Jano Ensllsh goes to Washing- ton with her Trbupei St Denla, where ahe wul open on Ihe Ifilb, at Ihe Washington Thealre(Oarusrs Band Box), which ahe haa leaaed for a abort period.

Ihe charming rope-dancer, who haa bean one ot Ihe prlndpal altractlona of the Troupe SI. Denis at Jane English's, and who la aslaler to Marietta Zanfrella, was marrledln Ihla city on Sunday evening, Olh, lo Augoale, one of tbe dancers of the same troupe. At NIblo'a Oarden, "The Dnke'a Motto" conUnnes to draw crowded houses night sfler night Tho piece hu already com- moncod lU second month, ancf tha atlendsnce throughout the paat week haa been most eiocUeut; In fad, there la hardly any perceptible tolling off In the attendance any night atnce Ihe In- itlal performaaos, which provaa that liberal management such aa Manager Whaalley haa shown our clllteas, will alwaya be re- warded. The very large attendanoe at thla beautiful temple of Thalia and Melpomene la a convlnolng proof that tbe publlo Is mora delighted oy what appeals to ths eye and to the aenees— by what In taet, la langlblo—rather than by what appoala to Ihe Imagination, IhefMllnga, and Ibe Intellect In the play of "lha Duke'a Motto" tbe artlat haa had a wide range for dlapjaylng his abilities on tho eonvos; and that It haa boa carried out lo tbo felleot extent Is nighllyimaniteated by Ihe hoarty applause with which each scene aa It appears la received. We therefore con- tend thai It la to theaccnlo effect acd the general mounting of the pleee, u well aa the fine acting, that In a great measure may be attributed tba oonllnued anccenof Ihla pleee. Thetntrlnalo lovoUncaa or Ibis building, combined with the beauty ot flowers, founlalna, and varloua auporb and eessonable deoeraUoua, nuke up a eool retreat tor one who for a abort time wlahea to wUe away a pleaaaot boor. The ventilating appsrotna la always kept In perfect working order, and dlflhaes tbronghont tbe house a de* llolous coolness, Mr. OoUIoa' engagement eiknda to tbo lOlh ot Aitiuat during tha whole of which time "The Duke'a Holto" and Fbolon's perfumed pbiy bills will be all the rage at Slblo's Gordon. In consequence of a severe hooneness nndor which Mr. Whcatloy la at preaont htborlng, Mr. Collins haa, at the ahortoat notice, eonaented to porsonale theoharsolerotI,sgar• den on this Monday evening, the 13lh, for the first tlmo. Uov- Ing had evsiy opporlunlly of seeing this chsraeler well played In Ihla elty, as well as In London, we have so doubt bnt that Mr, Collins will give a eonect Intorprelollon of Iho obaraoler. On Ihe lOlL Inat we paid a vlall to Iho New Idea for the par- wao otwllneulng the perfonnanoee ot the old Martlnettl Fam- ly, BO long and tavoratdy known to tho amusement-going public Tiiolr first appeoronee In this oily waa In lata, when they were lulroduced lo an Amerloai aadlenee by Francois Havel. Slaoe that time thoy have appeared and rfrappeared In thla oonntry aud Europe and hove alwaya mot with tho grealeat auccesa. Af- ter leaving the Savola they organliod a company of their own aud went to Oallfomla, whore Ihoy reraaUcd tor a long .tlmo. They returaod to tbla dty a short tlmo abioe, laden wllb Ihla world'a gooda, having reaped a golden harvist In that Slate. On the Olh Inat thoy appeared at tbe New Idea tor a short summer aeaaonwlthsveiTtalentedlronpeofarllales. Tbeperformanoea commenced, en the evening wo otlendod, with Exorolaea on the Tight Hope by Julian, FbUippe. and Paul MortlneUI. and we tmbosllatuigly aay, that more JUDcall and at the aame tlmo truly surprlsUig performances we nerer saw. lallon and Philippe eleppod upon Ihe rdpe, ond with a cross bar loading 6om their naoka at a.dlstanoo of alx feet, aod wllb Paul Uarllnoltl atondlBS upon Ihe bar, the brolheis gave a aplendld exhibition of aklU and daring seldom wItnossM. Then foUowed Ihe beatitltnl Zon- tratu upon the rone, whose porformanoea throughout abaolnttlr electtUea the andlenoe. She aecompllabaa teals noprecedenled, and, to the beat of our knowledge, mors exlraordtnary than auylhing ever atlempted. She valises on the tope, oa- ths slant with on* toot, onl doss all lotta of marvoHona thinga wllb apparenlly' porrecteaie. The ballet waa the next featurr, ot which we shall eoy nothing.

Ue plrouetlea baautlfally and is without any doubt one of the verr best male dancers over seen on the American atage. He haa aucn complete control over his mnsdes snd limbs aa though he waaonplvols.
