The Concert given yesterday by the Messieurs Distin
(Father and Sons) was, in every respect, extremely inte-
resting. These Artists use their Sp'endid Instruments
(the Sax- Horns) with a most remarkable superiority; and
I feel bound to testify that their execution leaves nothing
to be desired. An ensemble so perfect has never before
been heard. These FIVE artists I lay as if tt

The roseate hues immediate fled.

And tinged the maiden's cheek with red,
But lett the rose a fleecy white.

NOTICES

nu a; a Burlesque. By James Morgan

Our worthy host of t

kigises to that eminent actor for the liberty tai
"the noblest Roman of them all," at the same

ates this

ken with

time ex-

pressing his hope that his own noble Roman may never
tread on the heels of Shakspere's and Mr. Vandenhoff's
,iritable Coriolanus. We hope he won't. The produc-
tions of the great bird are made of sterner stuff than to be
laughed out of countenance by Mr. Morgan's drolleries ;
and even W. J. Hammond's delineation of the burlesque
character would never out us ont of love or memory of
one of the greatest efforts of Vandenhoff's histrionic

genius

The burlesque is very cleverly done ; and although the
author, with his known modesty, hints his perfect inno-

cence of any expectation that it should ever find its way
to stage representation, we confidently expect that it will,
