Miss Brainard's concert was given on Tuesday evening to an audience which filled two thirds of tho Congregational church. Mr. Taunt, whose name appeared on the programme, was announced to be laboring under an "indisposi- tion'' and Mir. Gustavus Adolphus O'Leary. a young man with black mustache, and resem- bling closely the portraits of Mai Gen. Butler, was substituted. Miss Brainerd sung "I know that my Redeemer liveth" tolerably, "The Flag of our Union" very, and little Scotch ballad at the close of the concert exceedingly, we'll. MT. G. A. O'Leary delivered himself of his sstill small voice" with many an approbative wink at the audience, which the audience good natured- ly returned, and Mir. Clare W. Beames did his part at the piano-forte with dexterity and skill which elicited beaming tribute from his hear CTS.
 Miss Brainerd is, we believe, Litchfeld County woman. was Miss Merriam, formerly, WAS adopted by gentleman in Birmingham, and sings now as prima donna in St. Bartholomew g church in New York. Her voice is-a rich, clear soprano, and is excellently we'll adapted to sa- cred music and simple ballads, which she rem ders with simplicity, sweetness and effect. The concert in Washington was a success, it IS IS 10 be repeated in Goshen Wednesday, and "ooooury, Thursday evenings of this week, and we are glad to know that she proposes another vislt to this county within two or three weeks, "hoh She VIII give concert in Litchfeld town,

bv Albert Stoddard, we'll known to our Litch- field readers as the Editor of the old Republican newspaper here, is now Captain of the crack' company of the 10th Iowa Regiment. He writes us that this Reg't is composed of men exclusive, 1y from central Iowa, and the men arc the larg est in size ofany body of troops in the Western department averaging full six feet, and the mer of his company are the largest in the Regiment They have been in service since July 3lst, the Reg't since Sept 9th. MT. stoddard says that Missouri is about half and half "secesh," but they are looking for its early suppression. Al though it is the 9th of October when he writes the weather was warm, thunder showers and mos quetoes plenty. They were expecting an attack from Hardee and Jeff. Thompson soon, and the boys were all anxious for brush.
 He writes also that his brother Frank has been commissioned, and is now raising company in central Iowa. His brother William is "high private" in his own company. (Co. C.) They are stationed at Cape Girardeau Mo. We shall expect to hear good accounts of Capt. stoddard hereafter.

 CURIOUS AFFAIR AT Co1LINsvuLR.-Last Fri day evening, Collinsville man was fishing in the stream near Collins & Co.'s shops where swords and bayonets are being manufactured. when he was approached by man in wagon who offered to make him rich if he would burn the factory buildings. He agreed to pay $50 down if he consented to the arrangement. Some words ensued, in which both warmed up, and in the heat of debate, the stranger made pass at the Collinsville man, with dirk. He receiv ed the blow in the arm, and was not seriously injured. At this time he began to give the alarm, and the staanger fled.
