Miss Mftuguerlte Holjert, who te- | ays the leading prlmadonna role ia j I "Faust"' that of Margarita, is quite naturally regarded as the featured soprano, with the New York Orand Opera Company, who win render Gounod's everlasting masterpiece, at the New Theater next Thursday | night, and from all accounts this singer &a? been well chosen for that distinction. Swiss by birth, Miss Hobert was educated in Prance, where In Paris; In the Grand Opera House, she made her first appearance on thestage, and strange to say, she sang the rold j of Mgrglrata, on which, must have been ^ very memorable occasion, or ! rather might It be said, most irapor| tant event In her ambitious life to J become a greaty operatic artist.

To sea things, to witness for i yourself the habits and manners of the various people in the world; to visit the 6hrlnes of nature, art and history; to see how people live, how they work, how they dross; how they eat, and how they worship; Is interesting and Instructive to every one, young and old. Last night we were able to enjoy some delicate refreshments under the American' flag, and to see some of the beautiful American ladies, and wore then escorted by one of these ladies across the Atlantic and through tho Mediterranean to Egypt, the land of the PharaohB and there saw the natives in all their gorgeous costumes, and after partaking of the delicious fruits and dateB, served by the Egyp tlan maids, we were ushered into the presence of a most celebrated fortune-teller, and at the earnest solicitation of our guide had our fortunes read by her from the lines In the palm of the left hand. She told us many wonderful things. She said to one lady in our party, that she v-Jj be married twice," that "she would be sick but would get well again," that "she was artistic, domestic and liked to travel/' all of which was quiet true, and really wonderful. We then visited Japan and enjoyed a cup of tea, served in one of the beautiful gardens which abound there, lighted with artistic lanterns, and foatooned with ? ? iT.ght colored decorations and served by sweet little Jap maidens, with their Jet-black hair and arched eye rows, and their becoming costumes, so peculiar to Japan, and which our American ladies take to very easily and becomingly. Oor trip would not have* been complete without a trip to France, and to Holland. the v?d of wind-mills, canals and things good to eat, such as ice cream cohea, etc. We enjoyed t'he landscape and alio the curious little fat Dutch p r's with their queer hats with bat'* wings on the sides and the wooden shoes worn by thore quaint peop'e. We '.-ere landed safely in America without rea-sickness or loss of Jmgragc; and-nll for the price of 25 cents for tho round trip.
