The "Pardon" la a nllgloninatlTal day on which the peasantry make special oonfea^ ^ooT and obtain absolution, and this is followed by marriage feasts, the "Pardon" being also the great wedding day of the year. Tbeflrstactlntroducedtheetrangeraitlste,4lle.Cordler, who, we do not hesitate to say, is a most oharmlng aotieas, and a ilDger, whose merits will be more and more appreciated the aflaner she is heard. She is thoroughly French In style, pos- teaiai a Tery pleaaing expression of countenance. Is rather small in stature, but very graoeful in manner. Her voice l8 only of . Bcdeiite strength, but ao exoeedlngly flexible from high onlU- Tallon, that the charm of her admirable execution made us cease '.to regret the absence of yolume. A more finished singer we have not heard since I« Orange was amongst ub, and certainly none to inrpass her In briUlanoy of execution, not even exoeptlng the talented OarloUa PatU, who excels In this respect on this side'of the water. The descriptive overture of the opera la one of the meet elaborately worked-up compositions ot the Und we have ever heard; in ftot,lt poasesaea more of the.ohsractor of the eym- phonies of the great Oennan masters than of ordinary overtures, Tbe musical aoeno painting descriptive of thaxlalng atorm that intermpis the wedding fatlviUes, is excellent beyond measure. ' The rush of waters, the howling of the storm, and the confusion nd dismay attendant upon such a state ot aOtlrs,. is admirably . set forth bv the mnslo ot the overture. Strangely enough. Its teantias fell upon most Unapproclatlva ears, Juagtog from the flint applause that followed It, but we presume the eagemeaa to ice and beit the deUanle was partly the cause. A'datalled de- ■eripUonof the opera Is unneceasatr, and . we therefore give merely a f^t outline, which is of the oaual style ot operatic plota, flimsy and inconsistent throughout In the first act ot the opera, Bhiorab appears aeeUng for her pet goat' She Is laboring under a fit of Iniaiiity, the result of having been jparted from her betrothed In the atorm that Interrupted her wedding fesUvlUes at the Pardon. On the atage la the cottage [of "Oorentlno," a BelflBbgSnpenUUonB bore; and while he Is playing on the national instrument ot Brittany, a species of bagpipes, she steps in and frightens him, aa he supposes her to be an apparition. Ade- llgbtftal duetts succeede. In which he plays the pipe, and she fol- lows with her voice, her great powers of execution coming into play in a very attractive and praiseworthy manner. She then rB off in eeaich other goat,and "Hoel" comes In and desoribee OorenUno the result ot an interview he has had with a gipsy, who tells him that a goat'wlll lead him to a place contain- ing a great treasure, but that it will be death t^he one that first touches it Corentino desires tne treasure, but not the, penalty atttcbed to it; but in the hopes ot obtaining It in some' my or other, he oonaenta to go in search of It The scenetthen ohanges, and Dinorah is again lntroduced,and performs the most attiaoUvo piece ot the opera, tho ahadow dance, the muaio of wliioh was a perfect gem In its vray. She was heartily encored In this song, and dance, which she executod In brilliant style, her execution df the music and grace of movement in the dancing being porttet Wo next have an interview between Corentino, Hoel, and Dinorah, and they finally proceed in seaNh of the trsaaure, led by the pet goat who Is the llrat to cross a bridge over a watertalL In attempting to toUow, Dinorah tails into the water and Is rescued by Hoel, who then discovers her to be his lost betrothed. Vhen she oomee to her senses, she is relieved tnm insanity, and all that has transpired is told to her as a dream. The finale la the marriage ot Hoel and Slnorah, the latter proving to be the treasure he vras to find. Such Is In brief the plot ot this fine opera, the mualo of which la of such excel lence and beauty, that it cannot but grow upon the pnbllo ear, until It becomes one of tho most popular operas ef our too llm, ited department ot such choice gems. Ot the acting of Amodio and Uadame Uorensl, in this opera, wo have to acoord to both Ugh praise, as we have done to the debutante, the attraction, Ualle.Cordler. Snalnl also did what UtUo he had to do very oredlt- d)Iy, and Brignoll sang the reapers' aong effectively, but his act- ing tho part of Comntino waa discreditable to his reputation. Neither in manner or make-up did ^o seem to comprehend the eharaotor at all, his defloienolea being glaringly apparent Of the orohestral performance we have to epeak In the 'ntgbcst terms, and the ohomiea were well siven. There Is' but Ut^e doubt tha; •Dlsorah" will prove one ottne great auocessea of the day in opera. ' "Uetamcrs,''^ the last ot the Wampanotgs, Is to be revived this evening, by Ur, Forrest, at Mlblo's Oarden. Some ten or fifteen yearn ago this might Tio called Hr. Forrest's sniest card, and whenever it waa announced, crowds were sore to be disap- pointed In gotUog in the theatre, the hotise being 'Crowded In a fewmoments after tha opening of thedooia; for such was the desire to see this great Indian play, that the street tn front ot the Ibettie would ofteutlmes be thronged at an early hour by those who vrcre determined to "be in time.''

Poor Palmol We dropped In at Lanra Eeene'fi on Wednesday evening, to see the fii^ spectade called ■.•Blondette," which was produced for the first flmeoa the evening of thuSth ult Theiruthftil dallies had given us to understand that <ne "gorgeous aoanery." "wonderful mechanical effocia,"and "brilliant cost of charoc- ten," preaentid in, thla place, were ot such excellence sa tomake Ita production one ot the most auccessfol efforts of tho Und over )resent«d in this country, niat these remarkably oortect and mpartial writers'had been "seen" tosome purpose. In reference to their notices of thla epectade, was plainly apparent to our minds after wltneaslng the first act; and the result we arrived at by the time the green curtain fell, was, that s more insipid, unmeaning play, or a greater faUlng ofl^ froih' the representa- tions made in regard to it, we never aaw or knew before. The "gorgeousness" otthe toesery is to be noUced prindpally in the bills: the "wonderful meohanloal effects" are only tobeobsened throngh the "mind'a eye" of jioUble oyater-house oriUcs, and the "brilliant east of ohanotors" lay in: the tkot that every indi- vidual, acter or actreaa, with one or two exceptions, seamed to render their parte in exact accordance with the degree of excd- lencs afforded by the Utaguage of the play Itself; that is, the in- sipidity and foggy character ot the piece found able representa- tives of the oharaoters it represented, in the "brilUanf'actlng ot the minority of those csst for the same. We never saw Miss lone Burke to4eaq advantage, or the talented Ulsa Taylor more out ot her sphere; and the same may be said of nearly all those engaged in it And yet this piece drew a ftill bonae; Irathow long the ItcUlua of the theatre are going to patronize suoh a trashy production, through the gross misrepresentations of par- tial <niUca of the press, we know not; hut it we' ore not mis- taken, the outlay said to be made In getting up thla pleoe will not prove very remunerative. Uoit of ue oharactsn are represent- ed by toilet girls, but four or five ot the prominent members of lanra Esfne's company being In the cast Miss Eeene js not In ih#placi,.por Ur.

The New Biwery is becoming quite funous.for the production of new dramas, and ^ma of them are of a very.fBlr order ot merit Every week sonte ftesh spcctids or novdty is intro- duced, tho management never permitting one feature to dedlne before be has another ready to take Ito pLue.' And the best of it Is, the performances at this house can .be enjoyed by ^ who )atronlae it for there is none ot that noise and oonfnsian which i Ormerly attended dramatic repreaehUtions on the eastaidaof tewn. Ur.Llngard has certainly effected a change for the better In converting the pit Into a parquet and promoting the plUtes to the upper clnls.

Oonaldering the "Im- ISO expense," and great preparations made in producing thla opera, four representations leem rather a short run, don't irau think so» W. W.
