Meyerbeer has completed a new Opera, entitled Dinorah, which, it

is said, will be produced at the Opera Comique in the course of next month. A new edition of Schindler's Life of Beethoven is about to appear at Vienna. A translation of this work, edited by Moseheles, was published here in 1820. Though somewhat meagre, this is the only biography of the great master that can be relied on ; and it is very satisfactory to learn that the author's new edition is so much enlarged that it will almost be a new work.
