selection OF performances. this evening" ct Nblo's
Saloon, where new and well arranged orchestra
has been erected We regret to find that this is TO
be the last appe france Of the clever and interesting
debutante MILE Melzet, previous to her return to
Philadelphia. She WILL however, among other
novelties which are to be produced on this occasion,
sing three songs; one Of which is well calcua-
ted to exhibit the briliance Of her voice and power
of herexecution Madame Otto has also announced
two new songs, and encouraged by her late recep'
lion, will doubt surpass even her Performance Of
Friday evening. Signor De Begnis, accompanied by
the band, will sing the universally favor,e song from
II Barbiere, "Largo al factotum," and will repeat
the two comic ecenss from II Fsnatico also the song
''J'aide 'argent." The concert will also be i'm.
proved by the absence Of the long songs of Messrs
Mayer and Masset, who should always choose sub.

popular favor. Mr.. Penson will again be leader

The reiformance Of the two overtures on FRI
day last, we need only say, that two Others
will be performed this evening; one by Weber,
the other by Rossni, in the same excellent style.
Although this is termed repetition of the previous
concert, it will be seen by the programme, that
trust that Signor De Begins will receive, he de-

| entertainments on SO liberal scale.
| The SACRED Music SocIErY gave grand con.

very respectfully attended. Madame Spohr Zahn
made her first appearance in this country in the
splendid oratoiio of "The Messiah" and fully sus
tanned her high reputation Mrs. Strong's singing
was deservedly much admired Mr. Masselt exc
cu'ed his part with particular power and effect.
The Misses Shaw give second concert this
evening at the Society Library Those lovely young
ladies have found a great many admirers here, and
we have no doubt that they are destined 10 gain
high reputation in the musical world. They have
doubtless several faults, and have much to learn,
but their faces RADIANT with beauty, and their unaf-
fected grace, almost disarm criticism.
Another CoNcERr.-Concerts and music are GER
tainly all the rage just now. Signor de Begns's las
wal most fully and fashionable attended, and went
off wi III great eclat. There were more beautiful
woment present at it than there have been at any
large assemblage this year, and that will be the
case tonight, and whenever and wherever the Sig.
nor and his charming pupils sing. AAd il will doubt
less be the case at the German Theatre on Friday,
where, by reference to our advertising columns It
will be seen announced. that the Signoi to sing at
M. Meyers concert, and Mr.. Tim to preside at the
plane Mr.. Meyer, if we recollect right, played
Ororiso to the Norma Of that charming prima donna

appear on this occasion, will be seen in the adver
tsement.
