MISS KELLOGG'S company, now at the Boston Theatre, though by no means so strong as that which delighted us two years ago under the management of the Rosas, has thus far appeared to advantage, in a succession of popular operas. It possesses two prime donne, one of them, Miss Kellogg, ranking deservedly among the three or four great soprani; in lighter roles, such as "Marta" and "Zerlina," her success is unbounded, while as "Lucia" and "Margherita," her rendering has improved-vastly within the last three years, much that seemed hard and artificial having disappeared. Her fine voice...
...happens to hit them; but his old weakness for singing false has become chronic, and sometimes exhibits itself in a most exasperating manner: witness, the sextette in "Lucia," on Monday night. Mr. Joseph Maas is not a good actor as yet, but has a serviceable tenor voice, fresh, strong, and reasonably well cultivated.

...between midnight and morning is not likely to be of the most permanent character. The utmost ambition of some men seems to be to retain their information on any subject till twelve o'clock on the day of an annual; then, as if the pent-up knowledge was too strong for the brain that contained it, it hastens to dissipate itself and relieve the unaccustomed pressure. It is safe to say that not one tenth of what we cram for an examination ever remains by us to be of any subsequent...
