part assigned them, playing, as they did, with

tended to notice the concert in detail, but ow-

The closing concert Of the Institute, in the
City Hall last night, brought out another full
audience The disadvantages OF the place for
so large choir and orchestra could not be
wholly overcome; but the best was done that
could be, in the circumstances. The great
choruses we're well rendered, showing that
the class has many superior voices, and that
their conductor had done his full duty. Miss
Perkins, and Messrs. Cheney, Kimball, Full
Ter, and knight, were generously appauded.
We do not remember to have heard Mr.. Che
ney before. lie may be sure OF d warm wei
come hereafter. Miss Houston sang with great
spirit and power. Her voice was heard above
orchestra and chorus, clear as the tones Of a
trumpet. The orchestra, with the skilltnl pi-
anists, all, in passing, deserve grateful mem
ton, as all met every requirement Of the oc-
casion.
During the pause between the first and
second parts of the programme, Rev. Mr..
Barnard suggested the appointment of ii
chairman, when Judge Chapin was unani-
mously chosen. Certain resolutions which
had been prepared by committee, of which
Rev. Mr.. Willis of Worcester, was chairman,
were then read by Mr.. Barnard, and were
unanimously adopted by the institute. They
| declare that its exercises have been ''eminent-
| ly satisfactory" that Prof. Baker has proved
| himself the 'same gentlemanly, able and
successful director he has shown himself to
be in previous years." that the institute
heartily approves the plan Of continuing an
nually Worcester county musical gather
ing under the direction of the Mozart socie-
ty, and that their thanks are given to Prof.
Baker, Miss Manning, Messrs. B. d. Allen,
II. Smith, George P. Burt, and others, for
services rendered by each.
SO closed this session of the institute. 1t
has never before met when its success or fail
ure excited so much interest. We have now
to record that it has never had class SUI
perior to this in numbers or quality, and that
its members have never parted with clearer
conviction that the time given to it had been
well and wisely spent. P.
