LOCAL TER S.

Mn. WHITNEY's ImpERsoNATIoss at Carusi's
Saloon last evening were pretty well attended,
considering the attractions growing out OF the
political eifervcscence which exists at present in
the city. His elocution in general very fair,
his voice being quite good and his action graceful
and suitable 10 the sentiment he utters. His enun-
citation. in the subdued passages of defamation,
was not quite clear desirable, but this could
be partly explained by the fact announced by the
orator OF his having been overaken by hoarseness
In many Of his delineations Mr.. w. was very
warmly applauded, and in general justly So His
Death Scene of Marmon was very cleverly given,
and the concluding part Of it was n sensible devia-
ton from the loud and boisterous manner in which
that couplet is usually delivered. The defence
Of Hoss Stealer." by Hoosier, was highly hui
morous and life like pleading, and called forth
frequent shouts of laughter and applause, On the
whole, We should say an evening can be spent
very agreeably in listening to MIR. Whtneys inn
presentations.
SIGEoRINA PARoDI.-Wc trust our readers will
not forget that this charming songstress gives n
other concert this evening, at Caruss, assisted by
those superior artistes NJ. and Madame Strakosch,
and the astonishing vioinist, Miska Hauser. The
rich voice of Parodi, which, in certain ranges OF
operate performances, 10 unsurpassed, We may
never again have an opportunity to hear.

be found in our paper of to-day, making known

tabshed in Ireland for the educat ion Of youths in
the Catholic faith, independent of the system Vi
education established in that country by the Bri-
tish government.
