The Grand Concert ind Lvees of Miss E..
C. Marsh and Dollic Dutton, at Simmons Hall
this afternoon and evening will be very generally
attended, the Hall was crowded last evening"
The Levees are given at 3 andt II o'clock to day
The Milwaukee papers state that 10000 persons
attended their six days Levees in that city.
The MiI~Gukee Sentinel says
Mss DOHle Dutton'S Levee last naght.-The in.
terest i'll Miss Dollie buttons Levees. does not
appear to be much diminished although Birchard 8
spacious HAIL has been we'll filled v in admiring
spectators of the little lady for a few days past
the little folks and the ladies particularly appear
to be taken with the petite yet graceful form, and
the beautiful manners OF Miss Dollie. who acts
and looks like the little lady she is.
When closely observed, as she walks around
among the audience, one realizes completely what
an infinitessimal creature she is, yet she is 50
well proportional that there is no unpleasant i'm
pressiOns of unnaturalness.
Of Miss Marsh's singing we will say that she
has a VOlc ofssingular sweetness, with more than
the ordinary range. She articulstes her words
with great dlstinctness, and expresses the senti-
ment of the music she sings, with a rare degree of
fidelity, Her mastery of the difficulties of her art
shows not only genuine talent, but a high degree
of musical culture Her execution of the 'Star
Spangled Banner" which is a piece a~ffording a
great opportunity for the development of the tull
powers of the voice was especially well done, and
was enthusiastically received. She cannot fail to
sustain in the West the high reputation she has
won in the cultivated musical circles of Boston.
We presume that Little Dollie's Levees to-day
and Saturday will draw as we'll as they have done
for the little people never tire OF seeing her, and
the older ones are amply ~repaid-not only by
the rare spectaeacle fforded them but by the sing
ing of so accomplished an artist as Miss Mrsh.
W. hope that the lovers ofgOod music will not
fail to hear Miss Marsh. as we'll as to see Little
DOllie.

Correctional our account of the fire, last
week, b6 which Jewetts Livery Stable was part.
ly consumed, we stated that the fire caught from
the stove pipe in the office. Since then Mr.. jew
cit has called our attention to the fact that there
was no fire in the stove and that there had been
none after nine o'clock the preceding evening
The stove in the Office stood unmoved after the
fire was extinguished. and there were no marks
of fire around it.
As was evident on closer examination, the fire
took at the northwest corner of the Office, near the
large front door of the stable, apparently near the
ground and burnt upward between the clap>
boarding and the inner plastering. Mr.. Iewett
informs US that when discovered, the tire might
have been extinguished with a few pals of water
lifthey could have readily got at it, but it was in-
side the wall working upward, into the chamber
where the family lived, and where it first broke
out. From these facts, the conclusion forces itself
upon the mind that this fire was the work OF an
incendiary. Fortuneatly the loss was compars-
lively slight, and we are happy to see that Mr..
Jewett has his stable nearly repaired and again
ready for business. Our citizens, with their usua
Iiberality, contributed quite a handsome sum to
assist Mr.. Jewett in repairing the damage done to
his stable.

A MILITARY ITEM.-The Governor has re-
voked the commission granted to Mark NJ.
Pomeroy, of La Crosse, as first Lieutenant IN
Wisconsin Volunteers, given to enable him to
obtain a position upon the staff of Gen. Cor
man, for having used in published CORES
p~ondence, language unbecoming an officer and
a gentleman, and disrespectful to the United
States, and its constituted authorities"
Those who have read Bricks" letters tc

Governor has revoked his commission. We
only wonder he has been allowed SO long tc
draw the pay of an officer while doing all in

Fruit Trees for Wisconsin

THE PEAR.
McssrS. Editors Some of the best and most
productive Pear trees in the Eastern States, are
found TO be too tender here in the West and much
disappointment has been experienced by those
who have planted the varieties popular at the
east. But all honor TO the men who planted the
first Pear trees here, in Wisconsin. If they have
been disappointed and suffered loss, it has been
fore, learn a lesson of wisdom from their expert
ence.
l would call the attention of your readers to the
Dwarf Pear, as an tree. When it puts
on its snowy dress of abundant bloom, in early
Spring mo Towering shrub is more beautiful and
when bending with its Autumnal burden OF beau
tiful fruit, what ornamental tree can be compar-
ed with it? For a small garden it is. just the
thing beautiful in symmetry. and yielding i'll
owner arich reward for all the care it requires.
What said of The apple in a former communi
cation, Is equally true of the Pear. 1t is of no use
to plant any but such as have been proved to b
hardy, healthy and productive, both on the Pea
and on the ounce stock. l will therefore, in few
words, point out to your readers the ~varietie
recommended tor this.region.
The varieties named below do well both on tn
Pear and ounce, except the Flemish Beauty,
which seldom makes a perfect union with tn
ounce, but as it bears early on Pear stock it's 'se
