it has been packed but twice this year.
the evenings of Hon. s. P. Chase's speech
and of the election-by the elite of the city,
to hear the famous readings Of the dis
tinguished elocutionist, James E. Murdock,
ESQ. Every seat n the house was taken
at an early hour, and the almost iunumer-
able chairs and camp stOols which were
brought in, choked up the passages, eaV-
ing but little standing room, all Of which
was occupied by resOlute ladies and gentle
men who had come expecting a rare treat,
and who were sure, as the event proved, not
to be disappointed. The gathering of such
an immense audience, especially on such 8
dismal, stormy evening, must have been
highly gratifying to Mr.. Murdoch, as moth
