A Paris correspondent writes : — "At length the long-talked of debiit of Madame Vest vali in Bellini's opera of " Romeo and Giuletta" has taken place , to the infinite delight of the amateurs and habitues of the Grand Opera . It has been most successful . Her unrivalled contralto voice was heard to perfection . From the moment she made her appearance in the costume of which so much has been s ^ id of its splendour , its beauty , and its weight , to the moment of the fall of the curtain , there was one longcontinued shout of approbation and applause . With a very intelligent physiognomy is combined a rare
knowledge of dramatic effect , and she lias fully justified the rapturous expression of admiration which the newspapers of other countries have indulged themselves in . The costume of aluminium , which is said to have cost 160 , 000 fr ., was the object of wonder to many of those who were present , but the lovers of music found charms of a more intelligible character in her judgment , her taste , and her voice . The ovation at the end was accompanied by innumerable bouquets , which she gracefully accepted , and one of which she graciously gave to M . Gerard , who had presided over the orchestra . "
A night is about to be devoted at the Opera at Paris to a colossal performance for the benefit of M . Boger . All the artistes of distinction in Paris express their desire to assist . A prospectus has been issued of a limited liability Company , with a capital of 20 , 000 ? . in 10 * . shares , to carry on the Polytechnic Institution . It is calculated from past" experience that dividends at the rate of 6 per cent , may be expected , and shareholders are likewise to hav ' e certain privileges of admission .

THE FRENCH ALLIANCE . A pabis letter of yesterday informs us that the Chinese question , in the absence of news from Italy , absorbs the public attention . Its necessary tendency to bind up the Anglo-French alliance is admitted on all hands , and , with certain ultra montane exceptions , is hailed , with universal satisfaction . Turning to Italy , the fact of the insertion in this day ' s Monileur of the Bergamo petition to the Emperor is naturally interpreted favourably for the
cause of Italian independence . In discussing this petition , with its 10 , 717 signatures , the Presse says : — It appears , then , that the people of Bergamo are resigned to see Venice remain in the power of Austria , provided some alleviation is brought to its sufferings ; but they pray that the frontiers of the new kingdom shall not remain deprived of their national defences ; meaning , of course , that Peschiera and Mantua shall be included in the cessions of Austria . The address says nothing against the restoration of the Dukes .
Prince Metternich was expected in Paris yesterday ; his return will , it is believed , throw some light upon the Italian situation . The Univers publishes a letter from Turin , in which it is stated that the Sardinian cabinet had received a communication from Paris , conceived in the same spirit as the Monileur manifesto , previous to the appearance of that document . This explains the recent observation of the Independente , that the article in the Moniteur had nothing new or unexpected for the King of Sardinia . - —

THE BERGAMESE TO NAPOLEON .. The Emperor Napoleon has received an address , bearing 10 , 717 signatures from the province of Bergamo , which says : — "Sire , —A great and noble enterprise , worthy of your genius and of tne generous nation which Providence has called you to govern , being embarrassed by the rivalities , and the interested views of almost all the powers of Europe had to be interpreted at the very moment at which the triumphs of the glorious allied armies assured it the most complete and mostbrilliant success . Although profoundly afflicted at having seen the failure of the projected de- < liverance of our brethren of Venice , to whom we are closely bound by the communion of opinion and
sufferings , we do not the less feel . Sire , the gratitude which we owe to you for the benefits which we have obtained from your generosity . We respect the grave and powerful political reasons which , contrary to your desire , have caused you to leave incomplete your magnanimous enterprise , but we confide at the same time in the prudent foresight of your Majesty . Yes , Sire , we firmly believe that the definitive conditions of the treaty which you are about to make will be of a nature to lessen the sufferings which menace unfortunate Venice . We have the firm hope that the frontiers of the kingdom which you have aggrandised will not be deprived of their natural defences , and that we shall not remain still exposed to unforseen attacks and place in a state of continual fear . We cannot doubt an instant that the
elements of the Confederation , projected by your generous solicitude for the future safety and independence of Italy , will be founded on homogeneity of principles , which , while assuring concord and union , will guarantee a just and becoming share of liberty to tne population , called on to form part of it , and will m particular leave intact the prudent and liberal institutions which for two lustres have caused the happiness of I ieclmont and the fflory of our heroic Sovereign . Deign , magnanimous Emperor , to receive with clemency ana kindness those sincere thanks , which come irom tne heart : also the expression of the wishes of a people . who feel proudly the benefit they have received , and wno uesire ardently to seize occasions of showing themselves worthy of the independence and the liberty which your generosity has given them .
