BRITISH AND FOREIGN INSTITUTE.::
IV. it ee of the season was given at the elegant ro
etitute on Friday evening last, and considerable interestthis ina-
excited by the presence of a party of Hungarian artists in wnthe '
picturesque national costume, who have just arrived in this
country, after a brilliant career in Paris, and who are to have
the honour, it is said, of performing before her Majesty at
the Palace this evening. They possess the peculiar talent of
imitating by the voice different wind instruments. so that a
person hearing and not seeing them would irnvire the sounds
to proceed from a select military band. The oboe, clarionet,
horn, and trumpet, were are all admirably imitated; and
their performances, which were loudly encored, were received
with the most enthusiastic applause. Gardoni, Miss Rans-
fore, Miss Salmon, Mr. Dorrell, Mr. Hancock, Mr. Muhlen-
taA, Mons. Lavigne, Mr. Oberthur, Mademoisselle Stop,
Signor iklarras. Mr. Whitworth, Signor Casati, Mr. Bennett,
and others contributed a variety of vocal and instrumental
pieces. After the concert the proceedings of the evening
were wound up by a vivid and glowing description of the in-
ieresting region of the Decapol is an d theAnranites,Roman colo-
