LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 5, 1882.

Mr. John Drew, the celebrated Dish comedian,
died suddenly at Philadelphia on the Slat ultimo.
Ile had just completed a suocessful engagement of
100 night*, and was about starting for a second
tour to Europe. Mr. Drew was much respected in
Philadelphia.
The New York Times says it was understood that
the Great Eastern would be open to public in-
spection during the following week. Some fears
were expressed lest the vessel should fail to obtain
a sufficiently large passenger list to authorise a repo
_
tition of its American trip. " That apprehension,"
says the Times," we understand, is groundless. Not
only has there been a lively demand for passage,
but so great is the current just now setting towards
Europe, and to so large an extent have the accom-
modations of other vessels been *poured in advance,
that the Great Eastern's room is likely to be en-
tirely occupied."
The New York bar had decided that there was
no cause for revoking Mr. Edwin James's license
as a member.

CONCERT.

The third and last of this series of concerts for
benevolent purposes was given last evening at Eider
Hall. "Sad was performed in aid of the Royal Society of
Musicians and, the Royal Society of Female Musicians, two
well-known and excellent inatitutioss, of great besiellt
to the musket profession, both of which, we believe,
have already partakes of Medusa Lind Ooldschmidt's beer
Scenes. The performance of Rhein wessimilartothat of The
Messiah and The Creation, on the previous evenings.
The solo slows were Madame Lied Goldschmidt, Miss
201111111Kh Cola, Yam Ryles, Mee Palmer, Mr. Sims Reeves,
Mr. Walker, Mr. T. Dees, Mr. Lawler, and Mr. Weiss.
Tie baud and darns consisted of upwards of five hundred
performers. Mr. E. Hopkins was the organist, and Mr.
Otto Goldschmidt was the conductor. The performance
wes perfect in every respect. Madame Goldichmiclt's grand
Ns.* of the principal soprano part is well known, and
en this occasion it was as grand as ever. To
the scene of the widow whose child is metered
to life threarh the prayers of the Prophet she gave a
beauty and pathos entirely her own ; and in her delivery of
the greed air which opens the *wood part, " Hear ye.
leped I there was a sublimity easier to feed that to dr
waribera fervid, %Opted expreske, Ifidttriervest ismer
that we have ever lend has been able to reach. Sometimes
her greatest displays of vocal power are attended with a
greater degree of effort than once was required ; but the
power is still there without diminution, as well as the
beauty. Mr. Weiss, as the representative of the Prophet,
is well known to have no superior. Independently of his mag-
nificent singing, there is a dramatic consistency, a lofty and
diguified tone maintained throughout, which shows the artist
of genius. Mr. Sims Reeves sustained the tenor part, and,
as usual, made a strong impression in his great air, " If with
all your hearts ye truly seek me." Miss Palmer sang the
beautiful °Detrain, music charmingly ; and Miss Susannah
Cole rang the KW* part of the •' Youth " sent to watch the
aspect al the Woven; with a clear, sweet voice that wee
very pleasing. The choruses were well given, and the in-
strumental band was accurate end effective. The hall was,
as at the previous concerts, crowded to excess in every part.
