at the pion°. Programme s—Dust by Was Lynes
and Miss liodgette ; reading by Colonel O'Connor,
full of humour, being • sketch from Irish life; song
b 7 Mr. S. Percy Street; Mr. Street brought into his
piece so many element*, eansicel, wash, and facial, that

those who had so kindly come to entertain them, and
said with reference to the laughter which he had
heard, that he agreed with Carlyle in "Sector
. Resartas," that ' any win who haa mos heartily
laughed in his UN must have some good in him." The
room was crowded, there ciould not have been LISI than
250 people present, of all claws, and SS were given
