H. J. DRAYToN, ESQ.

We copy from the Paris Correspondence Of
the Boston Atlas the following notice Of the
progress made by Mr.. H. J. Drayton, former
ly Of this city, in the study Of vocalization at
the French Conservatorie. The French Mu-
steal Journal announces that not the slightest
foreign accent was distinguishable in his enun-
citation Of the French language.
cat the expiration Of the first two hours,
however, had become nearly surfeted by the
most incredible and eccentric flights Of the hu-
man voice that ever pitched upon my imagina-
iion-evolulions that seemed to take in impos.
sbilities as nothing, completely upsetting all
manner Of bounds to establishment, and really
spreading such wild and general CONSERVATION
among the loose crotchets that my enthusiasm
already began to settle down into kind Of
sthargic indifference to anything that might
feel disposed to follow. From this state of
"oyster.like ecstacy," was suddenly aroused
by one Of those clear full bursts Of vocal power.
which, for the moment, can never fail to thrill
the stoutest audience to a mute naclion. The
pupil now upon the scene was none other than
Mr.. H. J. Drayton, Of Philadelphia, of whom
the American press has so often spoken in high
terms Of praise, and though was no less sur
prised than proud at his success, il was with
difficulty could realize that SO brief space
as some few months back could have accom-.
plished that degree Of proficiency which marked
his success. The piece selected for his execu.
ton was, however, too tame in character to
admit of exhibiting any great tours of vocal
force, in which Mr.. D. (whom have heard
since in private), particularly excels and, but
for the deep. rich volumes OF melody that con-
tinued to pour out, from the mellowest 10 the
full, proud vibrations of his most wonderful
basso cantante, filling The theatre until its course
was broken by ringing round Of ''brauos,"
could almost have smiled at the holiness with
which he had taken so formidable stand
amongst contendents whose strength had been
the result of years Of unremitted study. Add
ed TO this natural con6ence, the fine stature and
person Of Mr.. Drayton, and above all his spir.
tied conception and appreciation of the part he
is performing, are such as would render his
talents as all artistic of most high and valua>
bic order"

Careless Driving. We have often recorded
instances in which persons have barely escaped
from being run over by the carelessness Of
driving various vehicles. This morning, as
lady was passing along on the stone walk a,
Gadsby's corner, she came within an ace Of
being run over by the carelessness Of the driver
Of milk cart. The lady would undoubtedly
have been much injured had not gentleman
rescued her. Certainly something ought to be
done 10 these careless drivers"
ATTENTION AUTHORITIES. We have thought
that il is violation Of law, to build frame or
wood ,enements within twenty feet Of any
brick building. Now il we have thought RICH,
we have several complaints TO make. We
have been told that, near the corner Of A. ST..
and Pa. avenue, in the rear Of Delany's Drug
Store, is an old rickety wooden stable, recently
built, the loft of which is filled with hay also,
there are. several old concerns, which, were
they 10 take FIRE, would be the cause Of the loss
Of much valuable property, being within ten
feet of brick buildings. The alley in this vi
cini,y is also much complained Of, their being
stencil enough arising therefrom TO give per-
sons the yellow fever. We do hope tina, our
authorities will look 10 the health of our CHI.
zens, and the safety Of their properly.
