country after a long absence. There
w3diAsslosenxmats, Mr. CRAMER, Sir GEORGE
HAM, Mr. NICHOLSON, Mr. C. POTTER,
and a great number of other eminent men in the profes-
sion. Sir GronoE SMART was unanimously voted as
" Conductor" of the evening's entertainment, and took his
seat. Dinner having been disposed of, which consisted of
every delicacy, and served up in Mr. KAY'S well-known
style, a treat.was afforded to the guests by the professors
who attended which bas seldom been equalled. CRAMER
played on the piano with such a delicacy of execution
as to call for the plaudits of the assemblage, and several
handsomely dressed ladies in the gallery, unable to restrain
their feelings of pleasure, joined in the compliment. Mr.
Moscitzmes succeeded with a Fantasia, and the rapidity
of this performer's execution was displayed with more than
usual effect. The two celebrated professors just mentioned
then gave a duet on the pianoforte, which was loudly en-
cored. Mr. BRAHAM sung a song, which had been writ.
ten for the occasion, in his best style. The health of Mr.
CLEMENTI was drank with lotrpeclamation, and, although
in his 75th year, he played one of HANDEL'S most difficult
compositions with a facility that astonished all present.
Mr. C. Pornta gave us a specimen en the piano of his
peculiar style, well known to the profession. Such was
the gratification afforded, that the ladies tinged until
within an hour of midaight. Mr. BRA.HAM, in the ab-
sence of the Chairman, proposed Sir G. &water's health,
and said, that the public, the profession, and partictilarly
himself, were indebted to that gentleman—the public, for
the high treats afforded them under the guidance of Sir
GEORGE as conductor—the profession, for his unwearied
teal to promote its success—and himself, fur marks of di s-
• tinction he should not forget. The heitlth was drank with
loud cheers, and Sir GEORGE, who conducted the busi-
ness of the evening with peculiar effect, returned thanks.
NICHOLSON; in a duet, drew such silvery tones as have
never been equalled. The company broke up about half-
past eleven O'doek.
