ENOUGH FOR BorH-The Petersburg 1ntelli,en.
Ger of Thursday morning deplored the conjuncture
of JuLLrENs concert and LII. MAuRY's lecture in
that city on the same night There was no posi-
biity of going to both and enjoying and spprecia-
ting both and it concluded that the citizens were
in decided dilemma. After reading the Intell
gencer we were apprehensive that either LIEUT..
M or JULIEN would have slim audience; but
we were both pleased and surprised to find by the
Petersburg papers of yesterday, that both had
crowded audiences-ther- houses are represented
to have been crammed. This is well, and shows
the spirit and taste of the Petersburgers. H
