VOCAL CONCERT

d
We learn that the Tennesseeans," Vocaists
will visit Raleigh in the course Of day or two
and give one or more Concerts. They have beer
engaged the present week at Hillsborough ane
Chapel HILL
The "Tennesseeans" have been spoken of in high
ly commendatory terms by Tennessee, Georgia
and Mississippi papers; and the Salisbury ant
Salem papers, of this State, bear strong testimony
to their accomplishments. The Salisbury Wing
says:
"THE TENNEssEEA~s. We attended on Monday
and Wednesday evenings the concerts given in tht
Courthouse by these distinguished vocalists. As

that he had then received more than the worth OF MS

from its effects, and would most certainly have

heart-strring strains of the Tennesseeans.
We never understood before why FrenchmeD run

We wish the Tennesseeans success wherever they

The Salem Press says:
THE TENNEssEEANs. We were present at two
Concerts of those distinguished vocalists, given at
this place Saturday and Monday evenings, and,
with all who attended, highly delighted. There
is but one opinion here, among those who can aPpre-
ciate good singing-and that is, :" the performance
first rate: and hard to beat - Mr.. PORES bass
and the compass and melody of Mrs. Poore's voice,
were the centre of attraction and the Messrs Jack
also performed their parts admirably. AS a
whole, this Company cannot fail to give general sat-
enlightened communities. Their general conduct in
this place has been unexceptonabe, and all who
failed to embrace the opportunity of hearing them
missed rich treat We ask fair hearing for the
