The conceit by the Pyne and Harrison troupe, on
Wi,deeslay, was possessed of snch great merit, that it
deserves a more exteeded notice than we had space to
give it at the time ; where all was so generally good,
and so little exception could be taken to the perform-
ance of any one of the participators, it devolves.upon
us, in our wish to give credit where it is eminently due,
to aid in the encour igernent of true worth, and in so
doing render justice to our readers as well as to the par-
ties spoken of. On this occasion the excellent vocalisa-
tion in such difficult airs as the "Skylark," and " Cease
your funning," as well as the charming rendering of
Scotch ballads, by Louisa Pyne, more than counter-
balanced any shortcomings of any other members of the
troupe. She is the great magnet of attraction, and no
one can hear her without being willingly forced to the
submission of her superior ability. The song of the
" Skylark" gave such immense satisfaction that a repe-
tition was de-nandel, and although she declined this,
yet the charming nairette with which " Charlie is my
darling" was rendered fairly took the audience by
storm, and this received a tremendous encore, when
she kindly appeared the third time, and gave them "The
piper came to onr door," which only increased the
enthusiasm, and nothing but a sense of deference
to the fair creator of so much pleasure deterred
them from the continuance of applause. Although we
felt satisfied with the versatility and talent of this gifts,'
songstress, in the different operas performed during the
past three weeks, and had no doubts as to her perform-
ance in the concert room, yet we must confess to being
unprepared for so much excellence as was exhibited at
this time.

Miss Pyne sang a Scotch ballad very prettily, accom-
panying herself on the piano, and in the concerted pieces
shared in the applause, which was freely bestowed.
Mr. B9rrani sang his own composition, "Oh ! sing
again that mournful strain," in his usual correct style,
and so acceptably that, although coming immediately
after the enthusiastic greeting to Louisa Pyne, and be-
forte the beautiful duett from "Crown Diamonds," yet
a repetition was called for and granted. He is a plea-,
ing singer, and executes his running pa,sages and ca-
denzas °lei, ly and smoothly.
Messrs. Harrison, Horncastle, and May aided in the
general effect in songs, glees, etc , and notwithstanding
it was a late hour ere the concert was concluded, yet
the enthusiasm was continued to the last moment.
Saturday afternoon will be the last time we shall hear
this talented troupe fora lengthened period.
