A discussion as to whether and in what language an opera should be spoken or sung. Bashful Amina calls attention to the disconsolate Count. Carmen volunteers to solicit his confidence. Rather than be talked to death the Count attempts the revelation and breaks down. Manrico is thus reminded of his aliliction fof heartl. Ainneris again loses patience. Threatened. the Count begins his narrative of an old lady, but again breaks down. Reilections cast upon the old lady: Count reassured by a quartette: continuing, he relates the old lady's visit to the cupboard. This reminds Don Giovanni of one Dame Margery. famed in song, who frequented the cupboard allured by the cup: insinuation causes great disturbance: protest raised: Don Giovanni accused of mercenary motives in his art: sequel: a duel at sunrise: Lucia aiiects a reconciliation. The l'ount's explanation of the old lady's visit to the cupboard elicits from Leonora a eulogy on Something for Nothing. Sundry incidents: basses' comment: Fernando's penetration dispels the Count's illusion. where- upon the latter, wildly extravagant, invites the universe to supper. PART II. BESTOWING OF SOUVENIRS, BY D. P. HOLLIS.
