SAMSON that most beautiful and sublime
ming the Tabernacle by the Members Of the Sacred
Music Society assisted by distinguished talent from
Boston, the nursery Sacred Music. The music OF Han
Gel is calm and strong deep religious, so ervid
| and so glowing and swelling with harmony ss the sea
with its undulaas symmetry that it bears the soul up
buoyanily with wings while it to Heaven in
! triumph gracefully and soemnly sinks TO earth in
heart'broken devotion His works created epoch in
Music and founded new house OF nobility royalty en-
dowed in its originator In the World Of Art His music
to that of the modern rtuos thssunight in broad
brilliant gas.lamps each aaring with painful in
tensity in the centre OF its own little circle
The Sacred Music Society has recently undergone the
process of reuvenescence and is the full
of that progress which marks all arstica and poet
ica interests the present moment Ii is rapidly con-
cerrang into its bosom the greater part of the musical
talent in the City, and is beside creating every day
deeper interest in the public mind The Sacred Music
Society is now regarded by all classes Institution
in which every is happy to be permitted to feel
personal well public interest," and so long as it
conducted tits present its will be regularly
and swiftly onward until it reaches the elevated level OF
those parent institutions of England which have been
taken as its model.
OF the performance of Samson tonight we augur
most favorably. The Choruses know very full
and effective We do believe there finer body Of
in the United States than the performing
members of the Sacred Music Society. They are very
ambitious very talented and very Industrious and they
determined to do themselves the yery best of justice
on this occasion. Miss Stone comes to us with the
| dorsement of all Boston'-an Enforcement which
assured by those here who have heard her will be
duly and gladly recognized by the musical public of New
York. Miss Garcia has also wide reputation; and Mr.
Nash the principal bass already well and favorably
inown. He has a voice of great magnitude and is in.
Iced singer of great power and truthfuncss. He
somewhat lacks the application of the emery wheebut
AL that in good time. Mr.. Jones the weLknown New
York favorite, is ALEC to sing.
We devote separate line to Mr. Shepherd, the
and friend of many years This is favorable op.
portuny for introducing him to the New.York public.
and congratulate both parties the acquaintance.
He has true, reliable voice. of good compass and
artiscally trained and developed He will be certain
favorable impression which be of
vice TO him.
And now every body 60 and hear this Oratoro, even
if you have to otand up during the whole performance.
They say there have been quite Five Thousand
People cranncd into the Tabernacle one time. We

several years the Common Council have made appro
