GRAND MUSICAL CONCERT AT NEW WASHING
ToS.-Ay design is brief description of
grand musical concert, given in this place, by
Hessrs. Gourly, teachers of vocal and instru-
mental music. On the evening of the 26th
ult., several singing schools, under the super
attendance OF the above named instructors,
met in the old log church, which was gorgeous
ly decorated with wreaths of green hemlock
and pine, dotted here and there with artificial
flowers. Scholars and spectators made quite
an asscmblage, and the old church was made to
sroan in her very foundations with the oppres-
sion Of the large concourse of people. The
performance was extraordinary for this neigh
borhood. The execution of the different piec-
es Of vocal music was such as to reflect much
credit on both teachers and pupils; and while
the scholars rested their voices, they were en-
livcned BY the singing of glees, Duets,
tional airs, &C., by the instructors, whose vol
ces were accompanied with the ssfiddle,'' sec
onded by the bass viol; making our very
hearts to dance, and our heads, feet and hands
inyoluntarily to strike time to their harmoni-
Oas, merry tones. This science deserves more
attention than it has hitherto received amongst
US, and we feel assured, Judging from the in
terest manifested by old and young, that hence
forth il will receive that share of our encour-
agenent which its attainment demands The
performance was continued to late hour,
none appearing to tire Of this delightful en-
ployment. 4 collection was raised for the
benefit Of the bass violinist, who, occasionally
during the term, had visited the varions clas-
Some appropriate remarks were offered,
by member Uf the New Washington class on
rae able manner in which the teachers con-
Quoted the different schools, and also as to the
benefit of singing societies in general, which
WAS followed by unanimous vote of thanks to
the teachers. Then all dispersed and every
thing was soon quiet, except occasionally the
Jingle of bells, and of the large assembIage
nothing could be seen but rare glimpses of a
pair of heads, moving behind snow5ank.
am informed that come Of the bhoys ap-
piled the ssheel and toe' accompaniment to
music, and continued their festival for some
time after the close of the concert, in shape sf
ssbreakdown;' and, in fact, such was the
J;iTor created for music, that the notes Of Yam
kee Doodle, or Bloody Field of Bnena Vista,
were heard next morning emanating from al
most every house in our village, until the very
latest hour to which the performers could pro-
tract their stay with US. SPECTATOR.
