Signok Negrini. Tue Appearance Of Signor...
SIGNOK NEGRINI . Tue appearance of Signor Negrini , so long delayed , took place on Tuesday , and did not make the audience deeply regret the delay . He is one of the " robustious" tenors : a man after _Verdi ' s own heart . What voice he may once have had has been screamed away , or nearly so . How notice- able it is that all the singers who have come from Italy of late heralded by great reputations , have one and all turned out failures , and failures from the same screaming cause ! No one seems to think of singing ; it is all declamation and . hysterica passio . I may as well point , in passing , to the illustration this affords of what I said some weeks ago on the Meyerbeer school , and its tendency to make the opera subordinate to theatrical effects : as the composers sacri- fiee music to effects , so do the actors sacrifice singing to _declaration . Vivian .

PIETROIL GRANDE . The immense choral and orchestral , as well as scenic preparations , have deferred the appearance of Pietro il Grande at Covent Garden . Jullien is not the man to stake his reputation on imperfect rehearsals , though at

this late moment of the season , he can scarcely hope tbat the forthcoming performances will do complete justice to a work of such high pretensions . They will be little better than full rehearsals . But the opera will be " mounted , " and _^ we trust ready for a long and brilliant career next year , when the Maestro , with all his honours thick upon him , will be _£ eapi fregli ljmrelg beyond _^ Atlantic Notlli has been wanting on the part of Mr . Gye to sustain the first great effort of Jullien ; and , no doubt , the immense outlay will be well repaid . Even at a time when " all the world" is out of town , we have reason to believe that " all the world" will be present at this " solemnity , " and , among others , a number of distinguished continental virtuosi , intent upon the discovery of that rare phenomenon , a new composer . Pietro . is announced positively for Tuesday next . Z .

The Wixd Beast Foli-T.—I Used To Wonder,...
The Wixd Beast Foli-t . —I used to wonder , when somewhat juvenile , at the unnecessary stress , unnecessary as it appeared to me , laid by Solomon upon wisdom , and to see his absolute dread of fools and folly . A little more experience has shown me that there is no wiser fear than the fear of foolishness—a thing more terrible to meet than any wild beast of the forest . What frightful calamities , for instance , may not be directly traced up to to the miserable and pedantic views which have been taken of the Bible—views which enabled the sarcastic Gibbon to contend that the Reformation had brought in as much evil as it had removed . —Eraser ' s Magazine . —August .
Wine of Mam . —Among the vast number of testimonials that appear in favour of . _eUlsopp _' s Ale , it is remarkable that only one of them supplies the long felt deficiency of a popular definition of mis unique production of Burton-upon-Trent . Others havo very minutely examined its medical , sanatory , and nutritive properties ; and , what is rather unusual with professors of chemistry , or of tho healing art , give undoubted evidence of its superiority as a dail y beverage , founded upon long personal and either familiar experience . It was , however , left to tho Sanatory Commissioner of the Lancet to impart a social influence , also , to the use of Allsopp ' _s Ale . Summing up its excellence in the single terse expression of " Wine
ol Mult . As tho result of his own analysis , ho declares that " From tho pure and wholesome nature of tho ingredients employed , the moderate proportion of alcohol present , and tho very considerable quantity of aromatic anod yne bitter , derived from hops , contained in these beers , thoy tend to preserve tho tone of the stomach , and conduce to tho restoration of tho health of that organ , when in a state of weakness or debility . " And then conclusively adds , that _"Theso bitter beers differ from nil o ther preparations of malt in containing a smaller
amo unt of extractive matter , thus being loss viscid and _wieeharino , and consequently more easy of digestion ; they resomble , indeed , from their lightness , a wine of malt , father than an ordinary fermented infusion , and it is very satisfactory to find that a beverage of such general consumption is entirely frco from ovcry kind of impurity . " With such tangible testimony as this wo shall not bo _surprised if our importations of wines from tho German rivers , imd tho Vronch . and Spanish portR , aro materially affected b y a natural proferonco for our native suppl y of " wino of limit" from Burton-upon-Trent . — Globe .
