 Mr. Editor: Having the pleasure of witnessing the Exhibition of the Young Ladies of Miss Jones' Seminary, on Tuesday evening of last week, deem it one of superior order, and we'll deserving pas- sing notice The reputation of the Instructress. as efficient and able teacher, is well known throueh out the country and was not surprised to find the Young Ladies under her charge. so familiar with the various exercises which were allotted them. The exhibition mostly consisted in playing the Piano, Singing, and Reading of Original Composi. tions. All of these performances were of hiph order. The music on the Piano was very good. considering the age of the performers. The singing was delightful-particularly the songs. Were my musical talents equal to the task of just descrip. ton of this part of the exhibition - which, alas. nOs-Is should feel proud of my ability to do jss> tios to those Jfaiv ladies) To Miss Dickinson, the Instructor of Music great credit is evidently due
 The Reading of Comp ositions. to me, was tho most interesting. Many were beautifully written. and couched in the most chasse ot language. and, abounded with rich and beautiful metaphors and connarisons
