wards Of them, were assembled on the stage of the
Hall, in presence of large audience composed
chiefly of their parents and relatives to entertain
them with specimens of their progress in music.

occasion. The performances consisted of duets
and solos, instrumental and yocal) and choruses.
in which the whole of the little girls took part
They were performed in style very creditable to
the pupils and their teacher: and of course, high
ly satisfactory to the audience. The young vocal
lists, in the choruses, sung with an energy and
sweetness that ELECTED the admiration of those

young persons to train them in such hearty lifting
up of their voices. 1t tends to strengthen their
lungs and impart additional life and energy to
their action and character.
Mr. CIapP added to the entertainment solo en-
the Piano, which was executed In superb style.
At the close of the entertainment, the Rev. Mr.
MANLY, Principal of the Institute, arose, he said
to return thanks on behalf Of the Young ladies,

word from his lips, aud In stage whisper said,
"Ca.risimds!" AZ it was uttered by all, and ran
from side to side of the bank of innocent and
bright faces, it sounded like the rustic of angel
wings The audience caught the inspiration of the
joy which beamed from their conntenances. and
was echoed by their voices, and there were those
who could not help resp ,ndng to the happy
throng, by repeating "ChTiatmas!" When he was
permitted to go on, Mr.. MANLY piayfully alluded
to the hold which the festive period had already
upon the young hearts Of his pupils, and how they
were occupied by the thoughts of home and sea
sonable joys; but he hoped that they would be
able, nevertheless. at their next entertainment to
give proof of diligent study and Improvement
