The concerts -are attended by ladies who bring their sewing, as well as by amateurs of tho other sex. -Opera iu London next season is to bo carriod on by Gyo and Mapleson jointly.

The system of framing the proscenium more or less in barbaric gold will be abandoned in favor of tho real architectural and classic style.

Berlioz used to write his music whenever the idea occurred to him in coaches, rail cars, hotels, as well as in his study. One ohorus he jotted down by the gas-lighted window of a shop in Pesth. He has composed operas, oratorios, symphonies and church music. Gluck was his favorite composer. -The "Coliseum," which they are building in Boston, for Gilmore's monster peace festi? val concert, will be'the largest building in America under one roof; will require 1,700,000 feet of lumber in its construction; will be three hundred by five hundred feet, and will cover between threa and four acres of ground,or about 160,000 feet.

They are strengthening and invigorating, and are Exhausted Nature's great restorer. Aa an agreeable and pleasant tonic and appetizer, they cannot be excelled. THEY WHO ARE RICH, Are they who mind their own business. Find a hap? py man or woman, and the affairs of another trouble them but a little. It is none of your business If the minister kisses one of the sisters, or one of the sis? ters thus salutes the minister. It cannot effect you when a man you know calls on a girl you don't know, or one you do. What if thor J is kisblng behind the door, in tunnels, and when the night xs dark at the vestibule of the "burch, or even over the gate. Would you not do the same thing if tho chance was offered ? A WINE GLASS FULL Of Plantado a Bitters, taken three times a day, before, each meal, will make the flame of Ufe again burn brightly, and illuminate a once wretched existence. For ladies it is an elegant and gentle stimulant, just such as they require. "I WENT TO THE LAND OF STEADY HABITS." I wanted to hand several "bricks" down to pos? terity, and was told by father that with a New Eng? land girl tor a wife, I could raise more children, grow more onions, skin more eels, sing more psalms, snow mo; o of what was going on in the neighbor? hood, hear more scandal, sleep less nights, have more relatives, eat more beaus, love my sen* and hate others more, and get more out of a dollar, than any other sort of woman in this happy country so-called.

AND HE HAD A FEMALE CHILD, Whose name waa Hexa Brigbtwater, and who was ;wenty-nine years old; who wore red stockings, red {artera, metal tipped shoos, green spectacles, and the prettiest red hair the world ever set eyes on or Into. Hexa, a true New England gal, chewed wads of pine gum, and sweetened her broth with onions. Hexa wasn't so much handsomer than a doll as to make the doll faint, but she was intelligent ; In fact, in? telligence was her best hold but one; she was great on making baby garments, and had her trunks full, packed away, that abe might be ready as willing when the evil hour drew nigh, as she trusted lt would from year to y oar, IF THE LADIES BUI KNEW What thousands of them are constantly relat, to us, we candidly believe one half of the weakness, prostration and distress experienced by them would vanish. JAKES MARSH, ESQ., No. 159 West First-street, New York, says be bas three children. The first two aro weak and puny, bis wife having been unable to nurse or attend them; but abe has taken Plantation Bit. tars for the last ten years, and bas a child now 18 months old, which she bas nursed and reared her? self, and both are hearty and well. Plantation Bit* tera is invaluable to mothers. VALTXB, MY BOY, Here comes a man who was once rieb. He had friends, and money, and a loving family, and posi? tion, and influence, and self-respect, and Integrity, and a future of usefulness before bim. But, my boy, he don't look like it now. He was elected to an important office. He forgot the lessons bis good mother taught bim, and was asked by designing poll tl alana to sell bis vote to a party of swindlers; be could not for the Ufo of bim give articulation to tbat Utile word, and so he fell. HOW OFTEN DO WX HEAR THE COMPLAINT, From mother and father, that the son or daughter is not well; that they have no appetite; that they feel languid; that the head aches all the time; that they are growing thin and feeble, and that they have no life nor energy left And the question s are often asked, What sbaU I do for them f What shall I give them? Our answer is, let them try Plantation Bit? ters moderately, three times a day, and our word for it they will recover. AND HUE VALTER, IC A YOUNO KAN, Just Uke yon and ns, my hoar.
