ExpBostgE CorroN.-We find in tho
Baltimore American some remarks on this
material, which seem worthy Of notice.
Some specimens Of gun cotton were lately
sent t. them, ma Ie by Messrs DUroNr 81

tirers of Wilmington, Dol, which appsar.

day the l4th inst; Il surpassed In our opin.
ion any thing ofthe kind ever presented by
the ladies' Of our town. A numerous All.
dience was in attendance, and the gener.
Gus libetality Of our citizens, in q cause
so noble and benevolent. was promptly
displayed. We confess that our utmost
%ahticipattons were fully realized, If not et.
ceedcd, A choice selection OF pieces were
presented, among which was al Italian
song by Miss Conrad, whose extraordinary
vocal powers are beyond conception h one
so young. Though we have assumed the
privilege Of mentioning the name of this
lady, tis done without amy ~disparagement
to the other performers who graced the
occasion Indeed we pronounce The whole
q brilliant affair, the cause Il noble one and
worthy the interest manifested by all the
singing delightful, and the ladies' charming.
We would love 10 see many such eSht.
billions In our town.
