VIEUxTEMPs' CONCERT AT WASHINGTON Hall
This distinguished artist gave his second concert
last night at Washington Hall. Although the
| room was not so crowded as on the occasion OF
his debut, yet the intense interest he excited during
his performances gave evidence of increased ad-
mration, and the heartness of the repeated bursts
of applause must have rewarded the artist for
a few less tickets Sold The charming Prima
Donna, Madame Sutton, sang two of her beautiful
gems from her favorite operas, and was applauded
most rapturously. Her Cavatina, from the Son
nambula, was given with great effect. She is an
nounced to appear with Wallace on the 2lst' Ma
demoiselle Vieuxtemps received warm greeting
and accompanied her brother with much taste on
the piano, in Fantasia for the piano and violin,
from the opera of the Huguenots. It was de-
lightful concert.

The ITALIAN OPERA COMPANY were announced
to give a concert on last Thursday evening In
Washington. There appears to be some misunder-
standing as regards the engagement of the COM
pany. On the one hand il is rumored that they
have engaged the Park for the months of January
and February, the present dramatic company hav-
ing received notice, that their services will be dis
pensed with after the LIST January. On the other
hand it is stated that they are under written en-
gagement TO play during these same months at the
New Orleans and Mobile theatres while it has
been generally understood by those in the secret,
that they were positively to appear at Pamo's, to
open the new Opera House. Who can tell

POPULAR LECTURES ON ANAToMY-Dr Pattison
of the University Medical School, is now deli
vering series of popular lectures on the anatomy
of the human body. His second lecture will be
gwen in the Stuyvesant Institute this evening.
These lectures very curious, amusing, philo-
sophica and instructive affairs-quite different from
the trashy things which are given all around town
by boys picked up anywhere. 1t is an effort to
bring science and true philosophy into the elegant
circles of human life, and to teach us how "fear-
fully and wonderfully we made" Just go and
hear one as a specimen.

lot of country to be visited by the worst species
of travellers-by men who came not to examine,
and enquire, ndinvestlgate but with preconceiv-
ed obect-the profits of publication. The true
motives of these English tourists were here held
forth.
The Professor next alluded to the infamous
fasehoods which Buckingham Dickens, and some
others of inferior note have circulated respecting
the character of the American newspaper press
They had charged;it with being inconceivably libel
lous, with pandering to the depraving passions of
mankind, as devoid of political integrity, render
ing repotation insecure, and blasting honesty. He
press for had more than Briarcus more heads
than Hydra, and more eyes than Argus to take its
own part but he would protest against the right of
| foreigners to interfere with its management. The
| typographical errors of the Americas press would
| never be submitted to foreign correction.
Other charges made by Dickens were next sta
| ted and answered, to which succeeded powerful
denunciation of that ungrateful man who, after
having been more Hospitality treated in this country
| than the great Washington himself, had chosen to
write, and publish deliberate calumnies concerning
us. The man, indeed exhibited miserable taste and
still patriotism, in publishing his Notes duringthe
| time when delicate and most important negocia-
| ton was going on between this country and Eng
| land, thus endeavorng by the means available to
him to kindle spirit of luminosity and contempt
between the two nations.
The lecture concluded with a contrast rather
finely drawn, between the republican and mo
narchial forms of government, exempihed in
the United States and England. The former was
proved to be the most vlrtuous, 1t is In fact the
cheapest justest and best. The proceedings closed
by the Professor pronouncing benediction.
