MRS. BARBOTAS SACRED CONCERT. lull rehearsal of thia concert took place last night, and the smoothness and accuracy with which the diff?rent pieces were rendered Justify the expectation that the public per? formance, on Thursday, will be worthy of the musical culture of the beneficiare and of the skill ol the performers. Tue number of voices was unusually large, and this bas enabled Mrs. Barbot to prepare a programme which con? tains examples of many different styles, and gives assurance, besides, that the choruses will be delivered,with floe effect. The trios for flute? and organ are charming compositions, and Southard's "Let Thy Loving Mercy" ls very catching. Millard's "Thou Lord art my Hope" (solo and chorus) is one of the most effective numbers of the programme, bring? ing In four melodious solos. Tbe Bolo,.duett and chorus from the Hymn of Praise has, we believe, never before been Eung tn Charleston. It will delight the lovers, of Mendelssohn's music. BIZZJ'S "Salve Marta'' is striking and expressive, and Mercad ante's -Et Incarnat us" is both touch io? an] brilliant. Rossini's "Charily" is highly dramatic, and a novel effect ls produced with the female voices. Tbe "Gloria io Excelsis," from Haydn's First Mass, and "The Heavens are Telling," irom the Cre? ation, are grand works ot art, and, last night, were splendidly sung. . . It will be bard if the selections made by Mrs. Barbot do not gratify every taste. They are, without exception, chosen for their popu? larity, or for their high rank as compositions; so that the concert may be expected to please the, critical amateur as well as those who, without knowing or caring why, take delight in a concord of sweet sounds. The concert is a choice one in every respect, and deserves the generous patronage ef the publia THE HON.

Having heard there are reports being circu? lated In Charleston that the Singer Sewing Machine Company would not be In this city very long; thar, in case of an epidemic, they would run away-also, that their office in Savannah would be closed lu a short time, further, that the Singer Sewing Machine will not do as fine work as some other machines, and various reports of this kind-we take the liberty to say, Firstly, the Singer Company ?3 firmly established in Charleston ; so firm that they have little notion of vacating their posi? tion in favor of any ol their rivals. Secondly,' the agent has some recollections of having conducted the business in this city without intermission during the yellow fever of last summer. He did not run away, nor is he likely to do so at any future day. Thirdly, the office In Savannah ls established on too firm a basie, aud the general agent resident In that city has more capital involved that would be consistent with his moving away suddenly. He is lally competent to give satisfaction to the company he represents, and very likely considerable dissatisfaction lo rival compa? nies. Fourthly, the Singer Machine will do as fine work as any sewing machine. Flithly and lastly, we challenge any sewing machine In the teor?a" to do any finer or better work than can be done on the Singer. THE SINGER MANUFACTURING COMPANY. AUCTION AT FORT SOMTER.-Messrs.
