ITALIAN THEATRES;
O
A VISIT TO ONE ON.AN OPE
RA NIGHT.
A Description of those Places orA muse
ment and of the People who Frequont
Thom.
i)om App-eon's Jouriwl.
The theatre was small and bare,
wit' tiers of dingy wh;to-and--gold
boxes rising to the ceiling, draped
with curtains of fadod crins,n silk.
The floor was covered with roagh
wooden benches The drop-curtain
represented an old Venetian noble
accepting the dogo's cap at the
hands of a deputation of senators in
red, while knights in armor, rod
robed councillors, fair women and
young page.s stood around him.
Into tho boxes caine young girls
with faces tremulous with the fore
thought of the music, and matrons
with towers of hair and high-col
ored silks flashing about them, and
great waving fans in their hands.
On the bonches about me sat tired
work women with black veils drop -
ping over their shoulders ; sturdy
peasant girls with hand"kerchiefs
knotted across their brows, or bare
headed, with silver pins fastoning
their braids. Whole families came
trooping iii-kind-eyed fathers and
mothers, with oranges tied up in
their bluo handkerchiefs ; children
who were sure to fall asleep between
the acts, and, perchanco, with their
drowsy cries, take all the pathos
out of the "Miserero" itself.
Groups of young men sauntered
in-the pale artisans of the town,
the swarthy sailors from the lagoons,
tho wondering~eyed peasants from
the mainland. They stamped their
foot and cried out for the curtain to
riso. Bet%% e mi-whiles they lmmned
the airs of the opera. It was to
them an old, loved friend No need
of libretti for that audience. Not a
gondolier but had plied his ear to
the measure of Di Luna's love notes.
Not a girl bending over her lace
cushion high up in a garret window,
but had dreamed herself a romance
out of Leonora's passion cry. Not
a lad from the inland vines but car
ried his homesickness about his
work in the gypsy woman's vision
of her mountains.
In front of me sat the choorful,
smiling, woman, bareheaded. with
long, gold ear-rings, of whom I was
wont to buy old books, rare classics,
for my intellectual recreation, and
second-hand iron saucepans for the
concoction of my dinner. Behind
mo rose the shoggy gray head of
the old man who sold salad at the
doorway of the house. in which I
lodged. I had many a time heard
his mellow baritone ringing the
length of the street in the "Con.
spirators' Ohorus" of "E"rnaLni," and
the "Liberta" of "I Puritamni."
I knew that on the morrow
the dingy passage would b)e glorified
with the melodies of that evening.
Near him sat the old woman who
sewed mattresses for her living in
the court-yard next door to mne.
God pity these poor souls I The
curse of ideality was on them all.
They had come from their dark
shops and sordid homes, drawnm by
the hope of something better and
purer than they could know in the
dull round of their daily toil. They
were waiting but for the signal to
go out of their own weary lives into
the old, sweet, thrilling romance of
the troubadour.
The members of the orchestra
er opt, one after the other, through
tho little door under the stage
shabby old men, struggling for life
and bread ; haggard young men,
with genius written on their faces;
little lads with precocious foreheads
and dark, wild eyes.
A familiar face appeared in the
stage-box on the right. I recogni
zed the old maestro, Grimani.
The curtain rose, and soon the
troubadour appeared, lifted his hel-.
met, and cast from him his floating
white mantle. 'What did it nmatter
that he was old, and worn, and gray,
and had lines of pain .on his face,
under all the red and white of youth
that had nought to do with his
separation from Leonora I 'When
he sang that impassioned love-song
from his hiding-p~lace among the
trees, how could his listenors know
that the only thought upon him was
of the faded wife waiting for him in
some cheap lodging-house, and of
the day, not far d.istant, whena hai
voice would fail him altogether, and
snatch tho bread from her mouth
and his ?
What did it care, that eager,
sympathetic audience, that Leo
nora's confidant was thin And con-.
sumiptivo, and economized the rem
nants of a voice that had long left
its boesL days behind, and had a
color in her face that made the
stage paint a farco ? How could
they know that perhaps thoro were
six children to bo fod and clothed on
the substance of that spectral voice
and thoso hollow shoulders that
mocked at the audience from their
ghastly setting of wLito satin 7
But would they have cared had
bhey known of those things ? I
Joubt. There was too much of this
soup pot struggle within the limits
of their own experience to make
thom heed it there where they had
% right to expect only beauty and
grace. They had come to the
theatre to snatch a moment's res
pite from sordid household care,
ind why should they trouble them
solves that the court ladies of Spain
were jaded and weary, and sallow
races and patient eyes and shivered
- little when the cold air from the
winds blew over their bare arms, or
that the followers of Di Luna were
rizzlod, and gaunt, and hard-fea.
Aured ?
Well for them that they should
leel only the poetry and the pas
iion of life for one short evening.
But to me tho scene had a pitiful,
Naniliar sadness. The young love
ind the faded bodios-the romance
)f the story and the dreary bread
winning that lay behind itl-it was a
?athos but too well known to all
trtists.
INDEPENDENTS.
The defeat of the Democracy in
3umter and Beaufort is having a
Yholesomne effect in stirring up the
Domocrats of other counties to
enewed efforts at compact and effi
-ient organization. Especially is
;his the case in Anderson ; and in
Iis connection the Anderson Intel
igencer very sensibly says:
"This prompt action is the fore
:unner of another successful canvass
luring the present year, and should
-eceive the hearty support of every
Democrat in the county, and we
a-ust that ore long every Primary
,ub in the county will have met,
,eorganized and gone to -work for
.ictory. To perfect our organiza
ion at this time is the wisest policy,
or now men are cool and in the
)Ossession of their full judgment,
kud where they join together to
orfect the reform begun at this
itage of the canvass, they are more
tpt to secure additions from the
>pposite party than they could do
0fter the canvass has been opened
md the party line closely drawn."
This is true, aud it would be well
ror the same course to be pursued
tn every county of the State. There
is another element of success, how
Bver, which should not be overlook,
ed, and which is fully as important
as organization, and that is the
nomination of capable and efficient
men as candidates. Thiis is not
only an important factor of success,
but it is an imperative duty which
the party owes to the public, and
which it will not be safe to neglect.
Organization may elect incompetent
men, as we all know, but in that case
success may be worse than defeat,
for upon the party which elects them
will fall all the odium of the crimes,
and blunders wvorse than crimes,
committed by feeble and incompe
tent officers, either through igno.
rance or the influence of evil coun
sellors. Preferring their party to
the State and country was the ruin
of the Republican party, and the
Democrats should take heed lest
they commit the same fatal error.

succeeded in producing a paint with

street doors at night. Figures traced
with it are so lustrous as to be read
