The Gondoliers.

There is no doubt as to the forge at which the Gondoliers was wrought. Yet the opera is by far the most original of Gilbert and Sullivan's recent works. It would perhaps seem out of place to say that the music is more serious than usual, but at any rate, not so much of it will "go to the whistlers." Last night's performance at the Globe theatre was in every respect a success. Before so immense and on thusiastic an audience the respectable company which Mr. Stetson has brought together could hardly fail to sing well.
