'‘ Welave heard Mademoiselle Humle'r. She play's on the
Violin with most charming grace. We split a spotless pair of
`gloves (lavender, 4s. 3d.,) with applauding her. It was more
than we could, do'to keep'eui hands quiet, and yet if is not
once in a hundred weeks that' we do applaud; the temptation
occurs too seldom. Mademoiselle Ilumler must send 'us the
address of her gentler,' for, listening to her,"we became reck-
less. She made that stupid-lcoking bit of wood appeal, cry,
laugh, whisper, somata, fall on its knees, tumble head over
heels, sing, talk, persuade, charm, 'convince, make lqve, do
everything that•man and woman generally do,, and generally
-do tdost indifferently. Mademoiselle has no need to talk to
express her thoughts—the violin is her conversation:' it talks
and sings at the same time, your ears all the while being held
as by a loving hand.to catch every little word. She is an'instru-
ntental Madame Bosio, warbling just as sweetly, with her.
fiddlestick, that seems to have a voice in it, • We heard Mr:
Distin, (a great trumpet ia his way) loudly apostrophize her as
female Paginini.' She pleases as well as astonishes. With
her it is not merely 'tours de force,' but tours de p!afsir, de
lames, de delire,' 5) to speak in the musieo-fanatico style.
On most occasions we would rather walk over several muddy
crossings to avoid hearing the violin, against which out exco-
riated ear cherishes a most hearty hatred, but to hear Made-
moiselle Ifurnler, we could wade any day through a very No-
vemberish depth of mud to pay oral homage to the eloquent
music she has the power of extrazting"from that instrument of
torture.”--Punch. • " •
