CRYSTA.L PALACE CONCERTS.

The summer season was inaugurated yesterday
by a colossal musical festival, in which 3,000 vocal
and instrumental performers took part, under the
direction of Mr. Costa—the solo vocalists being
Madlle. Titiens, Madame Rudersdorff, Herr Formes,
Mr. Santley, and Mr. Sims Reeves. Haydn's
" Creation" was the work performed; the chorus,
consisting of the London division of Handel Festi-
val choir, selections from the•metropolitan choral
societies, and the principal provincial and conti-
nental associations, accompanied by the magnificent
Royal Italian Opera band. We need hardly say
the amplest justice was done to the great ensemble
pieces of Haydn's familiar work ; and it were
equally superfluous to state that Mr. Sims Reeves
produced produced an immense effect in the part assigned
him. The noble voice of Herr Formes was heard
,
to the best advantage in the song

solos were given with admirable
musicianly skill by Mr. Santley;

assurance of their property, they grudge a few shil-
lings for the preservation of their health. By their policy
they are freed from fear of loss by fire ; by the possession of
Holloway's remedies they may be secured against suffer-
ings by disease. Let all avail themselves of these unfail-
ing and inexpensive safeguards. They cannot hurt; they
must be salutary in any disease and under any circum-
stances. Holloway's Pills strengthen the stomach, prevent
flatulency, purify the blood, and invigorate the nerves ;
Holloway's Ointment soothes and heals external ailments.
This valuable policy of assurance against disease should be
promptly purchased.
