THE WANI/162.1270 Mirurrums. —About half a
dose,, years have elapsed since Mr. Robsoa familiarised the
town with the idea of a certain wandering minstrel whose
plebeian appellation was Jem Beep. The voice of this
songster was husky and thick, his gaeosste were ragged and
torn, and never, in all the anode Provencal melody, from
the days of good King Rini downwards, had there been
known so tattered a troubadour. Only on the principle
mandated by the good old royalist rhymer that" contraries
in extremes do often meet" shall we be able to reconcile
Mr. Robena's impersonation with the efforts of the ladies
and gentlemen who assembled last night at the Queen's Con-
cert-rooni, Hanover-square. The Hon. Seymour Egerton
was the conductor of the charitable bead who devoted their
musical talents to the cervices of the Association for the
Relief of the Deaf and Dumb. Lady Katherine Coko was
the Miss Arabella Goddard of the evening, and in the or-
chestra Lord Gerald INtsgerald was prime violoncello ;
whilst Lord Grey de Wilton played the kettledrums. A
crowd assembled outside the doors awaited the arrival of
the Prince and Princes, of Wales, end when the princely
pair entered the concert-room a hearty welcome, not the Is
sincere because etiquette made it decorous, hailed their pre-
sence. The concert was good, even on Its own merits, given
in such a came ; and, sanctioned by such patronage, it may
aasuredly be considered one of the most brilliant of the
