CRYSTAL PALACE CONCERT.

The directors of the Crystal Palace seem determined
to spare neither effort nor expense in increasing and vary-
ing the attractions offered to their visitors. Saturday's
floral fete was quickly followed by yesterday morning's
concert, at which it was announced that Madame
Alboni would make her only appearance in London.
This promise drew many thousands to the Palace, and
long before the time fixed for the commencement of the
concert an enormous audience had occupied every spot
from whence there was the faintest hope of hearing the
performance ; indeed so extensive was the crowd that
to many hundreds who hung on the outskirts but a few
fragmentary strains could have been audible.
The specialty of the concert, the appearance of Ma-
dame Alboni, was unfortunately not realised, the lady
having been prevented from singing by indisposition—
in proof whereof handbills were circulated containing a
copy of a medical certificate, and promising as compen-
sation for the disappointment, that Mme. Amadei and
Herr Formes would take part in the performances.
These artistes, in addition to Mdlle. Bauer, Mme. Fio-
rentini, Signori Salvi and Lorenzo, performed a selec-
tion of vocal music, chiefly from modern Italian opera ;
varied by solos on the double bass by Bottesini, the
violin by Ernst,
and the pianoforte by Hall&
These performances were received with great delight by
an audience such as could never have been assembled at
a morning concert until the Crytal Palace offered a
locale for musical thousands. The pianoforte used on
this occasion was a remarkably fine instrument by
Messrs. Broadwood, combining the utmost brilliancy
and power with great sweetness and purity of tone.
Signor Li Calzi and Mr. Land were moat efficient con-
ductors. It was understood that Madame Alboni would
sing at a morning concert to be given here on Saturday
next.
After the concert, the fountains were again displayed,
and again elicited warm encomiums from the beholders,
although they were perhaps seen to somewhat more ad-
vantage on Saturday, when there was not so much wind
to disturb the regularity of their currents.

M. Bresson, French Consul at Cadiz, having ex-
changed with Consul Lemperani at Gibraltar, arrived
at that port on the 25th ult. M. Lemperani was to
proceed by the next packet to Cadiz.
