JULLIEN'S PROMENADE CON

CERTS-COVENr GARDEN TREATRE.

M. Jullien commenced his annual series of promenade
concerts at this theatre last evening, and we are sorry to see,
from his programme, that the season is to last for one month
only, as be cannot have the theatre after Christmas. He has
rallied round him in his orchestra all the great performers of
instrumental music, and Barret, Platt, Richardson, Lazarus,
Jarrett, Prospere, Baumann, Harper, and Koenig, are still
among his principal solo performers. Tolbecque and
Nadaud are his leaders, and Jullien himself
wields the baton of conductor, with all that
vigour and energy which has hitherto been his distinguish-
ing characteristic. The stage and refreshment-room have
been fitted up with a new and elegant decoration. The pro-
gramme of the concert is to be changed every evening, and
various novelties, in the shape of new quadrilles, polkas,
waltzes, and overtures, are promised. We could not but ob-
serve the marked improvement which has taken place in the
performance of the orchestra in pieces of classical music.
Having been used to each others' play for four years, they are
now enabled to produce that perfect ensemble which
nothing but constant practice can enable an or-
chestra to attain. It is not a very difficult
matter to drill an orchestra into the performance
of quadrilles and tarantellas and dancing music, but it re-
quires constant and assiduous practice for years together to
enable an orchestra to do justice to the mighty works of the
great masters. This M. Jullien and his orchestra have done.
Never have the allegro and storm movements in Beethoven's
pastoral symphony been more finely given than they were
last night at Covent-garden. The symphony was admir-
ably conducted by M. Jullien—all was quiet, tasteful, musi
clan-like. It was evident that he felt, appreciated, and un-
derstood the ideas of the great master which he was deve-
loping, in the only universal language—music. The solo
performers of the evening were Koenig on the cornet-a-piston,
and Richardson on the flute. The performance of the latter
was truly marvellous. The house was crowded to suffoca-
tion in every part. There could. not have been less than
three thousand persons present.

GRAND BALL AT GUILDHALL.
Yesterday the Committee appointed to superintend and
carry into effect the grand ball and concert to be given on
Wednesday next, at Guildhall, for the benefit of the Ward
Schools of the City of London, met most numerously, in one
of the new chambers of that building.
Mr. Brown, the Deputy of Dowgate Ward, of which the
Lord Mayor is Alderman, was called to the chair. Soon
after the proceedings commenced, the Lord Mayor, Lord
Dudley Stuart, and Mr. Philip Salomons entered the room,
and heartily joined in the spirit of the undertaking.
The CHAIRMAN said he had the strongest reasons for be-
lieving that the citizens of London, who had so zealously
supported the balls and concerts given in that building in
favour of the unfortunate Poles, who had been compelled by
their necessities to appeal, through the excellent nobleman,
now one of the Ward School Committee, to the benevolence
of the public, would show at least as much zeal in a work of
charity involving the dearest interests of their own poor.
He had everywhere been met with the hearty good wishes
of his fellow-citizens for the success of the experiment, and
he expected to witness, on Wednesday, one of the grandest
spectacles which ever appeared in Guildhall upon one of the
noblest occasions.—(Cheers.)
The LORD MAYOR said he had no doubt that he should,
at the next meeting of the Committee, have to inform them
that he must be supplied with a far greater number of tickets
than had already been sent to him, and which he had already
disposed of.—(Cheers.) He was convinced that the bankers
and merchants in all the wards would most liberally contri-
bute to the charity, and he had already received several
announcements to that effect ; but he should reserve himself
for the occasion of which he had spoken, and merely say
that such a commencement in doing good in the new
mayoralty as the approaching entertainment promised,
would stimulate him to the most active use of his energies
in the service of his fellow-citizens to the close of his official
duties.—(Cheers.) He knew it was unnecessary to entreat
the warm co- operation of those gentlemen by whom he was
surrounded in the work of charity to which they were in-
vited, but he should, through the medium of the press,
which had upon all occasions so generously and powerfully
assisted in crowding their Hall for the relief of indigence,
call upen the opulent members of the several wards who no
longer resided in the City, but were removed, by the vast
changes which had of late years taken place in consequence
of the erection of extensive docks and warehouses, to other
parts of the town, to aid him in his humble but strenuous
endeavours.—(Cheers.)__

about 15,000 cottage residences covering about no
