The "rub-a-dub-dub" of war, and the multiplicity of "extrys," have~not been able to interfere with the aggregate of showbiz, lit this city, as yet as is usual in all countries where a war ex- ists, biz. takes new channels and manifestations, but the general result Is. rather Increased than diminished. Such lathe teaohing of experience, we believe, In nearly an communities, especially large cities. The publlo mind, all day on the full stretch of ex- dternent naturally relapses into repose as evening comes on, and the matronly teachings of the Drama or her attendant muses are cordially welcomed. As the evenings become longer or cooler, and as our managers are beginning to lead out their trump cards, so our items in this department, (no matter whether we can spare much or Uttle space for their discussion,) become more and more interesting, for Manager Humbug dies harder Peter Funk. Behold the signs. Talk about generalship, springing mines, pit falls, cat leaps, etc. don't our theatrical and operatic managers" go it strong on the strategetlcal 1 Here are UUman and Palmer, De Forest snd Nixon, playing at hide-and-go-seek all summer about the "who shall" for oddtrlcks at the Academy of Muslo; and, just ss nearly all the trumps are gone home or the remainder easily guessed at along come Messrs. Harrison A- Co.—great operator, that "Co."—who have been keeping dark ever ,80100 June, and now talk of opening Irving Hall "right fominsf* the old Academy shop, on the Irving Place side. A new stage takes' the place of the old hum-drum' platform, Garibaldi (not he of the red shirt) has painted some beautiful scenery. Guldldnl baa given one of his glorious ceilings. Oh the 18th we shall have the first per- formance of the new season, under the direction of Theodore Thomas. The programme has some rich musical treats. Having stated last week that WaUaok's old stand had both a dusty and a thirsty look, we are now happy in being able to state that a "season" of German Opera" commences this day (15th), with'S very fair company, under the dlreotlon of Carl Anschutz. They have Messrs Quint, Budolphson, Lottl, Graff, Hartmsnn, Welnllch, eta, withMesdames Jobannsen, Berkel, Rotter, Mauve, etc In this way, the sacred-words of the German oharscter in John Brougham's "Pocahontas" may yet be illustrated— "Dere Is hotting in ter vorld so sice, As ter bully lager-bier." M. Zavlstowakl, with his celebrated troupe of danoers, has Jnst returned to New York from the West Indies, after an' absence of three years in various parts of North snd South America. M. Zavlstowski Is prepared Tor business st once, and managers wish- ing the services of himself and troupe, or any of them separately, have now a ohance to negotiate. Bee advertisement Managers on the look out for talent of a versatile order, win aot allow the advertisement of Mr. and Mrs. Bhody Msgulre, In these columns, to remain long unanswered, wo presume. Artists having such established reputations as the above, are always In great demand. -How "about".'that English Opera Company we have been promised should commence '.'about" this tlmef Some of our critics urfR keep on comparing, lady performers. .Now, when we find Hiss Bsteman rated as being nearly as "great" as Matilda< Heron—in "Geraldlne," for eiample—what most we think of "the 'greatest' sotress of the' age" after that 9 Here Is a touch of the "ultra-passional," "Jack, lend us yer handkeher." - ' ■ <■. . * ' ' The way that "young rawskhll" our "Young Amelias," at Nlb- lo's, steps into the^hoei of Gabriel Ravel, while personating the letter's celebrated gymnastic part in the pantomime of "Vol-au- Vent," Is, or should be, a "caution" to all vain-glorious perform.1 en. .Whether the blockheads, can be penetrated wlth|k reason- able amount df Yankee caution, remains to be seen. According to Sam Patch's - English—"Some things can be done as well si others." • .' ■ -- One of the latest "real eaftte rumors'' runs to the effect that we are tf have a sort of theatrical Crystal Palace- built upon the site of the former glass affair on the Sixth Avenue. • "Glass pud- din—glass puddlnP-' - ■■■<>• Our Brooklyn-friends win be glad to learn .'that Manager Hooley la making arrangements for lnttoduolng his minstrel party st some available hall in their muslosl olty, Lot the young man and maidens look out for Hooley's Minstrels.'

"The Innocent Convict" Is the name of the new play soon to be expected in Boston. Miss Annie Waite, who was to have gone to the Optra Hosee, Cincinnati, but who could not wait for the enemy's movements, is now engaged to do the leading business at the Metropolitan, Buffalo.

It is said that in the Philadelphia almshouse is a man who, from constantly playing female parts in an amateur dramatis association, came at last to believe himself a woman, and Is nor crazed. Mrs. Cedle Rush, of Philadelphia, is studying a new. domestic drama, from the pen of George Marlow, entitled "Ida Lee," also- a local comedy. In one act by the' same author, entitled "Tot Belle of Washington." A sort of dramatlo show was opened a week or so ago on til- i Fairfax Road, near Alexandria, Va. We here a programme- before us, but It does not give a list of the company. Tho bill for the 8th comprised "A Day After the Wedding," song by Mr. Williams, and the farce of "A Kiss in the Dark," Mr. Boscoe, an actor, who wss recently arrested in Chicago oik a charge of being a rebel spy, has boen discharged from custody by order of the war department Mr. Boscoe, we believe, ww one of the company attached to the St. Louis Varieties last season, sevcrsl of whom were charged with being secessionists. - We regret to hear, from Cairo,' HI., of the death, by drowning, of Mr. Frank Graham, He had taken passage on the steamer Belle of Memphis, for Memphis, and on the 1st inst fell over- board, and was drowned.

He was beloved slat' In his publlo snd private life, and his loss win be severely felt "Peace be wim nim." A very good answer to all the absurd stories about Immorality or lack orpatriotism among stage performers may be seen in the- noble conduct Of James E. Murdoch lately, In Cincinnati. Al- though he has two sons already in the army of theJInlted States, and might be "able" to claim exemption in otheBtespecbi. the only idea remaining on his mind was ss to bis^bekag "able"' bodied. He came Into the city, gun on shoulder, frotRlB beau- tiful country residence. Joined a company, and reported himself at Gen. Lew Wallace's headquarters with this laconic speech—',1 saw in the papers .that you would take aU- the able-bodied men, with their gnus, and here I am." ' Thus this accomplished soholsr, splendid swordsman, and ready linguist in nearlr on the modem languages, falls into rank at onco as a private soldier; Of course eo valuable a man la not likely to remala without being placed where his accomplishments might be mado moat serviceable, as his friends, Buohanan Bsld, the poet-artist and Beard, the painter, are already among the officers on the staff of Gen. Lew Wallace. V Hartford Is not lighted up with dramatlo illumination now, there muet be a sorew loose eomowhere, and "the house closed to repair the gas works."

In American Hall, at Hartford, furnishes us suoh items ss we like to publish, Interest or no Interest in the matter, but from pure lqve for the Drama, Tho house opened on the Sth, as previously announced by ns, and shows both els' Sanoe and utility. ThebUl was "The Stranger," a characteristla- anse by Miss qannie RoBaUe, concluding with •'The New Foot- man." Miss Anna Levering and Mr. Sydney Wlndns led off u stars, Among the stock are G.

On the 10th, Sydney WlUdns having been (as the clorgy soy) "trans- lated" to New-Yorkr^L. P^Boys, the "knight of the dark, muzzle," took the place of Wilklns, and opened in "La Tour d» Nesle," The house is an elegant proofof the merit of New England mechanics. The now local act-drop, painted by D. A. Strong, gives great satisfaction. The new candidates for publlo favor stand well among the old favorites. E B. Williams Is per- fectly "at home" as a stage manager, and Tom Hampton never allows hinuelf to be hamporod - with "ihcapsbles. Joseph Proctor commences in "Damon and Pythias" on the ltth.
