ST. MAI?.TIITS lIALL.

Mr. Alfred Mellon gave his second grand concert la.t
nivht, at this hall, to a large audience. The vocal per-
formers were Mr. Sims Reeves and Mdile. Louise Cellini,
a young singer of much promise. She sung two songs
with much expression and ability. Mr. Sims Reeves
was encored in both his performances, the " Adelaide "
of Beethoven and an English ballad. One of the chief
features of the entertainment was the re-appearance of
Signor Bottesini, who has been absent from London for
the last three years. He was loudly applauded on his
entrance, and was encored in a selection frord%Paganini,
in which he displayed his usual skill. The irrgtrumental
portion of the concert is deserving of the higfiest praise.
Mendelssohn's Symphony in A Minor was rendered with
striking effect. Notwithstanding its length the attention
of the audience was unremitting, and th'e warmest ap-
probation was expressed at its termination. We must
not omit to mention a brilliant performance on the piano-
forte by Mr. Edward Bache. The band was conducted
by Mr. Alfred Mellon, who may be congratulated on the
success of his entertainment.
