OPENING OF THE NEW ACADEMY
OF MUSIC
A Brilliant and Complete Sucre**.
Tho Inaugural >.>ason of tho Charleston
Academy of Music was opened last night, accord?
ing to announcement; and, whether we consider
the character, numbers and enthusiasm of the
audience, the elegance and completeness of ail
the arrangements of the house, or the excellent
manner Ut which the play itself was presented,
the occasion must be pronounced a conspicuous
aud most gratifying triumph for all connected
with our chaste and beautiful Temple ot" the
Urama.
"SCHOOL"' AND ITS AUTHOR.
Manager Ford, perhaps with a sly regard for the
fitness of things, and considering that the building
was to be known as an "Academy." had select?
ed for performance on the opeuiug night. Robert?
son's popular modern comedy called "School."
Mr. Thomas William Robertson, thc author, is,
with the London playgoers, thc popular drama?
tic author of the day. The comedy which first
bronght him into notice was "Society." This was
produced in London in 1662. lt was followed
by "Ours." now as well known in America as in
England, and by "Caste." which was first played
about two years ago. The wide popularity of the
comedies of Mr. Robertson arises from their per?
fect ease aud naturalness, and thc absence
of all straining after purely sensational effect.
No attempt is made to hinge the whole
play upon a desperate plunge or frantic
leap. The dialogue is neat and pointed,
the different parts are fairly balanced, and,
above all. the plot is evolved from the events of |
every-day life with which every one is familiar.
Most of Mr. Robertson's comedies have been
played successfully in the Northern States, and
"Caste" and "Ours" have become especial favor?
ites. They all require steady and even acting,
thoroughness rather than erratic brilliancy, and
If always given as effectively as "School" was
represented at the Academy of Music last night,
they will soon become familiarly welcome to the
playgolng public or Charleston.
THE HOUSE,
As we have Intimated, was crowded in every
part. The beauty and thc fashion of the city
?hone in the parquette boxes and gilded circle of
the first gallery, and the family circle, as well as
the more remote abode of the twenty-five cent
"gods," was densely filled. Not only were the
jeats all occupied, but in all portions of the edifice
the available standing roora was taken up by
eager spectators.
THE ORCHESTRA
Was a much more effective one than we have yet
had to enliven any dramatic entertainment that
has been vouchsafed us since the war, and lt will
doubtless Improve rapidly with the nightly prac?
tice that lt will have during the winter. Thc
audience, we think, would have been better
pleased had the orchestra been more liberal with
Rs dulcet strains during the intervals of the play.
THE PROLOUUE.
At 8 o'clock the curtain rape, and Miss Lillie
Eldridge, a graceful blonde, made her appearance
before thc footlights, and recited, with taste and
discriminating emphasis, the following prologue
from the prolific pen or Wm. Gilmore Simms,
Esq.:
This once proud city, seated by the sea,
With subject realm as boundless and as free.
Though prostrate long beneath an adverse Fate
That left her homes and temples desolate,
Hath yet such wondrous gifts In sea and shore,
lt needs but WILL her fortunes to restore:
The stern resolve; with Labor in her marts,
Hope in her homes and courage in her hearts,
To prove superior to the hostile blast.
And all repair, so glorious In her Past !
Not now In arms, but arts, we seek the strife:
The arts alone illume thc paths of Life;
Labor, but blindly gropes along the way.
rill Art lets in the glorious Light of Day !
'Tis she Informs us with the sweet desire,
Uplifts the soul till all Its wings aspire;
Trains Fancy's height, assiduous, to explore.
Our boundless realm of rock, aud wood, and
shore,
Pursues the Muses to their mystic dells.
Invokes their songs and masters all their spell.-:
Drags dim Tradition from his Druid wold,
Wins all his treasures with a song of old;
Records the imperfect legend from his Ups,
ind frees our wondrous Post from long ec.pse.
.inch are Art's beautified toils, and such be our.; !
To-night our Muses r?assume their powers:
This ls their temple ! Bright the forms arise,
ind all the world of magic fills our eyes !
There Genius comes upon his beamy car,
ind lo ! the crowds that gather from afar !
"ame mounts his wavy crest, and Fancy stands
Ju tiptoe, walting his directing hands I
He speaks !-The forest moves, the rocks obey,
sturt into breathing life and own his sway;
The shadows flee before bis sovereign nod,
The Temple springs-the Muses hall their God !
For Him and you we build ! His glorious shrine
Claims the bright glances that around us shine:
Por Him, young Beauty's constellated eye
Dutflamea. to-night, the stars In Beauty's sky :
Full from her orbs, where fond Expectance dwells,
Lo I moon-eyed Rapture shoots her thousand
spells:
Taste come3 to worship; Virtue to behold
How proud her aspect In the days of old:
They heap thc garlands for our classic dome,
They deck thc Muses' bower, and call the Exiles
Home I
Let not the Bigot rrown, too cold to reel
The Drama's glowing powers and fond appeal;
The greatest truths by Wisdom ever taught,
The purest thoughts, by mortal ever thought;
The loftiest moral, with the noblest song,
That ever cheer'd the right, orcheck'd the wrong;
Warn'd the wUd youth, with couusels sweet as
sage.
Bedress'd the Injured and reform'd the age.
To us belong ! We hold, with nameless grace,
Lire's cry stal mirror up to Nature's face :
Art sanctify to Virtue ; Genius make,
Thrice bless'd for Truth, when tolling for her sake;
Shoot Folly as lt files: lay naked Vice,
Upon the altar, bound for sacrifice ;
And every raad'ning Passion of the soul.
Teach how to purge, and train beneath control !
Here, taught by grand examples, shall the great,
Read Crime's dread penalties in Macbeth's fate ;
And Malice, shrinking In his Shame, deplore
The cruel fortunes of the noble Moor ;
Murder became a Penitent, to sec
A Richard's midnight dream of agony ;
And each, or high or humble in his aim, .
Win the first lessons which shall keep from blame;
Which justify Ambition, and inspiro
Zeal to fond service, Love to pure desire !
To you who love the beautiful and true,
Friends of the Drama, we appeal to you !
Come with your smile, the vtrtuoas and thc wise,
And cheer the servants of thc scene ye prize;
Bring fearless judgment; nail with heartiest laud;
Denounce the Wrong, and still the Right applaud;
Touch'd by the Poet's truth, embrace the True,
And be yourselves the nobly great ye view;
Spurn shameless Vice; pluck valu presumption
down,
And tear from sly Hypocrisy bis gown;
Cheer Infant Merit In his toilsome strife;
And crown Achievement with the palm of Life;
So shall the virtues bless your name and age,
And find their noblest ally in the Stage.
After a brief Interval the magnificent drop
rose noiselessly as befare and revealed the first
scene of
THE COMEDY.
And here we may remark, as highly creditable to
the management, that the various scenes last
night were not only admirably put upon the
boards In every detail, but worked as smoothly
and as perfectly ns if they had been in use for
months.
Miss Laura Alexander and Miss Eldridge sus?
tained the leading parts, the former as Bella, the
coy and winning orphan pnpil, and the latter as
the rich and wilful hoyden, who is Bella's dearest
friend, until a couple of dashing beaux take their
places m the picture. Miss Alexander, who is
one of our own Southern gentlewomen, is an at?
tractive brunette, winning and refined In feature,
and of lithe and graceful physique. Her voice ls
mellow and pleasant, and her acting, especially
in the last acts, gave promise of great excellence.
In the opening scenes she was a Uttle wanting in
warmth and feeling. Miss Eldridge, though
young, has been bred to the stage, and showed
that she was a practiced as well as a careful
actress. Thc role of Naomi seemed especially
well suited to her style. Thc minor parts
were performed so uniformly well that we
scarcely know what was most worthy of special
mention. Poyntz and Beaufoy could hardly have
had better representatives than Messrs. Wood
and O'Neil: and Dr. aud Mrs. Sutcliffe, Krux and
Farintosa. were all excellent portraitures.
At thc close of the plrfce the players were called
for and very warmly greeted.
WHAT IS COMINO.
"School" will be repeated to night and at a
matinee on Saturday. On Friday evening wc are
to have Robertson's " Home,'' now the great at.
traction at Waltack's, New York, and on Satur?
day the great drama, called the "Lancashire
Loss." Next week the Chapman sisters and the
inimitable Bbhop.

ready evident benefits resulting from county agri?
