MEETING EXTRAORDINARY.

A categorically concentrated congregation
| of cats held public meeting on the fiat roof OF
house about twenty feet distant from the
window of our sleeping apartment the other
night. As the moon shone brightly, we could
see all their movements. We could not ex-
actly catch all that was said however, for they
all caterwauled together at such rate, that
they soon became as unntelligible as one of
the Harper's books, printed after Noah Web
ster's improved style of spelling. They Sc
lected for chairman huge tom cat. with eyes
as green as those of jealousy, and fur as black
as the ace Tor rather the deuce) Of spades. The
object of the meeting seemed to be the examl-
nation of certain juniors, who were applying
for admission into the honorable body then and
there assembled. We judged so, from the pro-
longed and solemn tone in which the chairman
catechised his cats. The only question we
could distinctly understand was the first
Who-o-o-o made the l'a.wl "M-o-s-e.s"
screamed dozen juveniles all together, with
an energy that would have put al opera singer
TO the blush, and a harmony TO which the con-
curing melody of a thousand cat-calls was but
circumstance. The chairman seemed to be
indignant at the small degree of order which
was preserved, for he seized one of the young
sters by the neck, and general row com
mencing, the meeting broke up in most admira-
BILE disorder.
We have no doubt this meeting was gotten
up for the purpose of annoying the Dispatch
in revenge of certain structures made upon their
tribe on a former occasion. We are prosecuted
men, there is no doubt of it. 1t is very delight
full, too, TO be prosecuted, and not more agree
able than profitable. We have known men to
get to Congress before now, by being perse-
cuted. We have always been trying to get
somebody TO prosecute US, seeing how profta-
Bile it is, but we have never been able TO sue.
coed until now. We, like the politicians, call
upon the people to sustain US. They are too
full of magnanmly to allow any man to be
prosecuted with ilnpunity. Oh! what de-
lightful thing it is 10 be prosecuted. Its equal

THE ORAToRIo.-The exhibition was attended
by quite respectable number Of persons. We
entered just the quartette Hear those soothing
sounds ascending" was commenced, our engage.
ments having made it impossible for US to attend
earlier. The music is by Beethoven, and is inten-
ded to be sung as though by the people at such a
distance as to reach the ear in a meowed and soft
ened cadence. 1t was well executed and the illu
sion was complete. We might say the same with
regard to nearly the whole performance. The most
delightful portion of the whole to us, was the Aria
and Chorus Coy Haydn
"Must we leave thee, o Jerusalem Z"
We were surprised that the audience did not ap.
precate it at all, while there other portions
OF the performance, certainly not so worthy of
praise. which were loudly applauded.
Mr. Michelbacher has certainly furnished our cit
liens with most agreeable entertainment-an
entertainment which is well worth vast deal more
than the sum charged. The labor which it must
have cost him to have gotten SO many fine voices
together, must have been very great and he de.
serves the thanks and the patronage of this com
munity for his efforts TO please Many Of the young
ladies had voices which would do 10 discredit to
the Italian Opera, and wanted nothing but little
more confidence to make them perfect in their
role
The Instrumental music was very fine The
leader and first violin was Mr.. Dallirger who also,
We understand, drilled the corps of singers, and
brought them to sing together. He was assisted by
Messrs. Loebman and Stoderman, also yiolinists of
great taste and execution Mr. Joseph Ritterhause
performed on the Bassoon with great effect.
Every BODY seemed pleased and we therafora
hope every body will 60 back tonight, when the
second representation takes place. Mr.. NJ has
been at great expense in getting up this Oratorio,
and we learn not reimbursed by the proceeds
oflastnight's performance. 1t would be cruel 10
make him suffer pecunia ry loss, after the great
efforts he has made to afford US pleasure. We ap-
