Tue Concert.?Tho Concert iu aj,<J; ? ,of the Presbyterian Church touk pluce, as was announced iu tho last issue of the News, at Stockcr's Hull on Thursday night last. Although t h u :.- of tbut afternoon were portentous uf an ava lanche of rain, and pregnant with elec tricity, yet 8 o'clock P. M., found the ?hall already alluded to, filled with the li, grace, beauty and intcljigo#?o ?f Or ^.uguuurg oouuty. n u are w^rraut^d by fucta in asserting that there neypr has been such a tnusipa) treat in thjs place before. ??Ecstaey" from tho Opera of fKob?ff, L.o Diabjc, was exquisitely ren dered by Mws S. 51. Lcgure. "Good hyo Sweet Heart, Goodbye," was sung as only Dr. Tabcr fcnows how. Dr. T. B. Legere secmod to bo laboring under a oold, wliieh marred bis carefully pre pared song, f'Nobody's Club}." The Duct by Mies Lcguro nut} Mr. llcury nohn dolightod the audience; but the chef tV ccuvre of the evening, "See, 'tis jthe Hour," by Mrs. A. B. Know I ton, touk tho jtJ&h! audience by surprise, and jto use a newspaper phrase, "brought down tho house." We must coufess that in all tbe course of our experience we have uever hoard one wbo combined aii the qualities of a finished artist, out side of the profession, wbo could, iu tbe least, compare with Mrs. Kuowlton. The duet "What are tho wild waves saying?" was snug with great beauty by Dr. Tabor and Mrs. Knowlton, Mr. Henry Kohu brought down the houso by hia comic long "Listen the baby is crying 1" The amatuer musical tal ent displayed, will become a marked fea ture ia our midst, and Mr. Kohn is cer tainly a "low comedian," of high rank. Mrs. Knowlton sang "Sweet spirit, hear my prayer," with such peculiar pa thos as to lend to her being called out again, when she sang "Fire o'clock in the morning," with a graudour of ex pressive style that would have done honor to ? "professional.". Tho "anvil chorus" from "IlTrovatoro" was rendered with added lustre by the prcsonoa and ringing sound of a real anvil, which gave a tone- to its ex pros sivo effect. The whole Concert was a brill ?an* snc cess, both as to performance and andi ence.Tho latter in its size and apprecia tion did honor to the occasion; and they were amply repaid for at tendance We would take a genuine ploasuro in speaking farther of this delightful ovo but our lack of space forbids it. - - A Suggestion.?Why is it that our citizens may not organize clubs, for the purchase of tickets in the great Land and Immigration ec'herac of Messrs. But ler, Chadwick & Gary, the drawing of which takes place in October next. A club of ten for iustance would purohasc ten tickets, and tho holder of one of tho ton, would be entitled to a proportionate share of all the prizes that might bo druwn. Thu.?, twenty-five dol lars invested in five clubs of ten persons each, would secure to each person fifty chances to win a prize insteud of five chances, or iu the proportion of ten to one. The grand idea is to win some thing, and that which diminishes risk will of course bo tho most popular scheine. If our ludios especially will undertake the formation of these Clubs among their friends and neighbors, goot luck will be sure to lock iu on some of them. COMMERCIAL. 3iauki:t kkports.
