| According to these returns, the Democrats have


fallen off, while the Wings and Abolitionists have
| become more numerous. With decrease in the
/ Democratic vote, and an augmentation in that OF
both of their opponents, it is fair to suppose that
the additional abolition strength is taken from the
| ranks of the Democrats. We suppose so because
they only have decreased, and because they alone
| came boldly out for the annexation OF Texas, this
question operating powerfully the popular mind.
Owing to Clays last letter, however, we shall
the elections yet to take place in the New Eng


land States, that the Abolitonists will take from


both parties, and probably more from the Wings
| than from their opponents, because the latter stick
closer to each other-act more like one man; they


seldom scatter or split


ITALIAN OPERA, THEATRIcALs, &c.-Pamo's
Theatre opens on the 10Th instant, with


an Italian Opera Company-Mad'lle B0rghese,
the prima donna. This is as it should
be- for strangers anxious to witness Italian OPP
era, are daily arriving this city in great numbers,
from the different watering places, springs, noun
tains, and lakes. There is little doubt but that du-
ring the ensuing two months that from 10000 to
1000 strangers will visit this city, that for
upon that length OF time, as far as the opera and
ballet are concerned, the Italian Company will have
it pretty well all their way, as the other great
vocalists engaged by Simpson for the Park cannot
make their appearance much before the end Of that
time, and when they do, the contest will be be-
| tween Palmo's and the Park.


The prospect of the legitimate drama for the en-


suing season is lower than To all appearance


the pnbc favor will be given to the opera and the
| ballet both Italian and English. The Seguins and
| troupe, on their arrival, will, doubt, be in


the Market and the probability is that they will en-
| gage Pamo's Theatre. This will also cause the
| Park to have the more to contend against for pub
| lie favor.


Madame Albertazzi, the celebrated artist engag-
| ed by Simpson, was, some ten or twelve years


since, chorus singer at the Italian opera house, in
| London Signor Albertazzi, who was then connect
| ed with the management. Of the establishment OBJ


serving the young lady had sweet contrato voice,


and no small share Of personal charms, married her,


and they proceeded shortly afterwards TO Italy,
| where the lady was placed under the most able
| masters After receiving first rate musical edu-
| cation, she made her appearance on the Milan


boards as prlma donna, and was successful in her


endeavors for public favor. After this the lady re-
| turned to London and was engaged at the Italian
opera house, and took the contralto part with Grsi:
in come ;ton with this establishment she has re-
mained for some time past, and been held in very
high estimation. MIR. H. Phillips, the other cele-
brated vocalist, engaged for the Park theatre has
fine bass voice, but for successful and efficient


opera, tenor of equal merit with the reyious ar


lists will be required

tween eleven members of the Philadelphia Club
