other inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood.
The concert commenced with a fine oomposition of
Donisetti's, which was played in excellent style.
The next piece was the grand Coronation March
from Meyerbeer's "Ls Prophete." A selection from
" Ernani," of Verdi, was played with very gnat
precision. The first part concluded with the second
act " Fra Diavalo," which was rendered in a very
spirited manner. The two cadenza, In this piece
were nicely performed by Mr. C. Herbert and Mr.
A. Bartlett. The performance received, as it justly
deserved, an encore. The vocal music of this part
was very well rendered by the choir of the Minstar.
Mr. Stoddart was very successful in his song of
" Nelson," which, with the band accompaniment..
sounded brilliantly, and was also rewarded with a;
encore. Mr. Arthur Bartlett gave great satisfaction
in his patriotic song, "England is England 44'
The second part commenced with Mendelasohn's'
War March in " Athalie," which, as were alba
the other band pieces in this part, was excellently
played. The glees and madrigals were weld
performed, and Mr. Freeman was most amusing
in his song. Amongst the company present, were

7-InePautoilin-fosi riot FOR FITTT ttsits.—At
the visitation of the Queen's Prison- es -Be4arda7' by
Mr. Registair 14446, the case of Mr. Williain Mifler
who
,has been incinerated at the suit of a man named
Cull, since the year 1814, was found to stan,d,first on the
list for ieljadidation. 'Upon the name being failed, how-
ever. Captain Mellon, the governor, stated that Mr.
Miller, who had been under medical treatment for thrall
or four years, had become so seriously ill that be had to
be removed to the infirmary, where he remained in •
very precarious state, and that it would be. therefore,
imiresible for him to attend before the Court. The
registrar said that he regretted to hear that account,
and should of coarse adjourn the case. The case, much
to the disappointment of those present, wu auordingly
adjourned.

It is well•knewn that the leaves of plants Sr. im-
bued with richest juices in the early Spring; Tea,
gathered at that juncture is therefore more valuable as
it yields incomparably more strength than the last or
Autumn crop; but the Chinese with the concurrence
of Merehants, have, to increase the projlts, long passed
off inferior Autumn leaves at high rates by covering all
the various growths with the same powdered odour;
as all this operates to the buyer's loss and is an injury
to the article, consumers greatly desire that it should
be discontinued, especially as the mineral powder is
always washed off and consumed when the Tea is in,
fused. Green Tea, not "faced" with the usual bluish
powder is a dark slice hue • when this and the Black
are of the spring growths hue;
flavour is delicious, as
found by using ifornimon's PURR TEA, which is sold
in Packets and advertised with list ofLOCAL AGENTS
