SUN OFFICE, SEVEN O'CLOCK.

ST. JAMES'S HALL.

(THIS DAY.)

MR. BENEDICT'S GRAND CONCERT.
The leading concert of the season is always Mr.
Benedict's, whether in respect to the superiority
of its contents or its execution. To-day it did
more than maintain its old pre-eminence,
owing to the importance as well as variety of
so much that it presented. When we state that
it gave, in the first place, the whole of the
Exhibition Music—Meyerbeer's Grand March,
Sterndale Bennett's Inauguration Ode—and
Yerdi's unsung Cantata, as produced at Her 111a-
jesty's Theatre, we afford some tolerable notion
of its substance ; and we supply some faint idea
of its variety, when we add, that it gave also
selections from Mr. Benedict's " Lily of Killarney,'
including the two lovely airs, " I'm alone, I'm
alone," and " Eily Mavourneen," sung by Miss
Louisa Pyne and Mr. Sims Reeves; the " Giorno
d'orrore," from the " Semiramide," sung by the
Sisters Marchisio ; the "Brindisi," from the
" Lucrezia Borgia," sung by Signor Trebelli; the
duet from " The Crusaders," " Ties of Friendship,"
sung by Mdlle. Titiens and Miss Pyne, the
" M'appure to sapristi," from " Marta," sung by
Signor Giuglini, and " The Last Rose of Summer"
by Mdlle. Titiens. The instrumental attraction of
this concert was quite on a level with its merit. It
presented a duo for piano and violin, by Mr. Bene-
dict and Herr Joachim ; a duo for piano and vio-
loncello, by Mr. Benedict and Signor Piatti ; and a
solo on the horn, by Monsieur Vivier, who made
his first appearance on this occasion after an ab-
ence of some years. The other novelty of the day
was the first appearance of the Fraulein Liebhardt
from the Theatre Impereale, Vienna, who, with a
singularly high and clear soprano, produced a
very marked impression, in a Styrian Forest
melody, in which she imitated the trill of birds
with singular success. Of the excellence which
characterised the performance of the music, whe-
ther vocal or instrumental, the names of the execu-
tants roust be a sufficient attestation. It would
be invidious in the least degree to individualise
where all were so superior. It is suffi-
cient if we say the singers were all in admir-
able voice, and not the last Signor Giuglini, who
gave a very welcome proof of his entire recovery
from his recent illness. The hall was crowded on
this occasion with a very brilliant and distinguished
audience ; and Mr. Benedict was welcomed on his
entrance with a very cordial demonstration, to
which, before the performance ended, he proved
himself doubly entitled, in the amount of gratifica-
tion which he afforded to his friends and patrons.

THE CASE OF Y.ELVERTON v. WALKER.

The following letters have been addressed to the
Editor of the Scotsman :

Alma Hotel, June 26, 1862.
Sir,—l trust you will grant me a small space in your
columns to make a few observations, which shall be as
brief as possible, on a portion of the trial just terminated in
your Courts—" Yelverton v. Walker"—and in which I am
personally interested.
In the course of the proceedings it appears to me that
the Court and counsel (as I understand the pleadings) have
placed me in a false position, and one which I am not pre-
pared to accept—namely, that I had combined with Mrs.
Teresa Yelverton to fix on Major Yelverton the heinous
crime of bigamy. This I do not admit, and am prepared to
show that by so doing they have done me a great wrong.
It is quite true that when my mind was relieved from
the false representations designedly made for the purpose
of misleading me as to the real position and character of
Mrs. Teresa Yelverton, and when I had gone thoroughly
into her case, and became thereby perfectly satisfied she
was the legitimate wife of Major Yelverton, I took her by
the hand and accepted her as such. That I was right in
so doing became evident from the verdict of an irreproach-
able jury, a special jury, who on the trial which took place
in Dublin, Thelwall v. Yelverton, in the spring of 1861
unanimously found her to be the legitima.e wife of Major
Yelverton both by the law of Ireland and of Scotland.
Now, Sir, the fact is, that it is not I who have conspired to
fix on Major Yelverton the crime of bigamy, but those ill-
advised persons who have accepted Mrs. Forbes as his wife.
It was his marriage with that lady that made him a biga-
mist. Teresa Longworth could not have made him a biga-
mist unless he had been married to another woman
previously.
I ask, then, what right had Major Yelverton's rela-
tives to take Mrs. Forbes to their bosoms, and anticipate
the decision of the courts of law ? I stand on higher
ground, for I did not presume to set the legal question
at defiance. Had I done so, I might justly have been ac-
cused of conspiring to injure Major Yelverton. I there-
fore fling back on the opposite party the foul imputation,
and declare that it is they who have conspired, not only to
make a bigamist of Major Yelverton, but to contravene the
law of the land, and destroy the reputation of an innocvnt
lady—his true wife—for up to this time the only legal de-
cision which Major Yelverton's policy has rendered it prac-
ticable to obtain has pronounced Teresa Longworth his
lcgtimate wife.
It is of no use to try to ignore the Irish trial. The
whole gist and intent of it was to try the validity of the
marriage, and the result makes it patent to the world that
Teresa Longworth is the lawful wife of Major Yelverton.
There has been no conspiracy on my part—the conspiracy,
again repeat, is with those who have unau-
thorisedly adopted Mrs. Forbes. Again, I deny
that Mrs. Teresa Yelverton assailed Major Yel-
verton. The attacks have all through this miserable
affair come loaded with the foulest and falsest calumnies

from him,
Is there a virtuous and innocent woman whose blood does
Lot boil at the mere thought that Mrs. Teresa Yelverton
should have consented to so far injure her own fair tame
and the honourable pride natural to her sex as to havis sat
down irresisting-ly under the vi le accusations brought against
her ? She did not do so, but has nobly and successfully
vindicated her honour up to the present hour; and in doing
so there is nothing so conspicuous in her course of self-
defence as the scrupulous pertinacity she has evinced to
extenuate the most unworthy conduct of her husband and
his immediate relatives and abettors; this, too, while the
persons for whom she has shown this consideration have
only renewed their vile attacks upon her the. more mercy
she has shown to them. She has once again under ihe
just protection of the laws of Scotland sandad may and
grant
her power to bear up against her trial to have a happy
issue out of them I—l am, &c.,
W. H. YELVERTON.

in cross-examination, if I had presented her to my friends
as Mrs. Yelverton, I said I considered the Irish verdict
authorised me so to do, as well as my own conviction and
knowledge of facts. I was then asked if I was " aware that

" I seemed not to understand it." I said I did perfectly,
and the facts were patent to all the world. Counsel
then asked if I was aware of the Scotch proceedings.
I replied I was ; and here I trust I may be permitted,
in justice to Mrs. Teresa Yelverton and to myself, to insert
a few lines on a subject already so much and so often erro-
neously discussed. Insinuations have been thrown out as
to her life before she became acquainted with the Major.
On this point I had the fullest satisfaction, and only wish
it could have been elicited from me in public. In Decem-
ber, 1860, I received, through a friend, the mother of a
judge, a most high testimonial from the superior ladies of
the convent where Teresa was educated. In answer
to my inquiries, these ladies stated she had been one
of their most interesting pupils, that they had never
lost sight of her since she quitted them up to the dates
of my inquiries, and were fully aware of all the
tgr.

she had undergone, and willing to give me any 8011.021___
