~ Mr. LOVER gives his second entertainment
al the Stuyvcsant Institute This Evening We had no;
the pleasure being present his first entertainment
but we find the following excellent notice in the columns
of the Gazette < Times journal in whose criticisms
we love TO condde
Mr. Lovers voice both in speaking and singing is not
strong but IS or seems very expressive We say seems
for his in rectns singing Is so dramatic and
his face mobile and full OF meaning, that his voice
would appear expressive, II il were not We
think him by far the best reci,cr we have ever heard
Without any cxageration ct voice manner OF gesture
he produces the iu effect OF dramatic scene, and by
his pathcs aud humor, keeps his audience at his viii
in smiles tesrs-we say smiles, by way OF courtesy
because large portion OF the audience Was composed
OF ladies' but the fact really Is that we never heard
heariier peals OF laughter, than from their fair
throats They literally laughed Ill they cried and then
cred TIL they laughed again.
Among so many gems il is difficult to choose
b.!ch; particular. but OF all that heard nothing
pleased Us so much the recitation ot the poem upon
an incident the Irish rebellion OF &c. The description
o the prison scene and the preparations for the
ton we're so TO painful and the deineaton
the produced electric effect which thrilled
through the whole assembly. All this mingled with
touches OF humor which were irresisubly mIrth.pro
yokins in spite OF their juxtaposuon with exciting
themes.

tremendous. The Manager is obliged 10 give three psI
fornances day and evening accommodate the crowd
