UNION MEErNe.-Last evening a crowd


of the ladies and gentlemen of Virginia
assembled at the Opera House ostensibly
TO attend the Concert of the Virginia Glee
Club, but which proved in the ending to
be one Of the most joyous and thrilling
Union jubilees it has been our good for
tune to attend for many a day. The Giee
Club have been component part OF
almost every Union gathering for the past
month, and so familiar has their wonder
full melody become to the ears OF loyalty

night filed the Opera House to overflow
ing with Union men and women, with
perhaps a half-dozen Copperheads and
rebels. OF the Concert, we will only say

appropriate tribute of loyal audience to

signing Of the Star Spangled Banner by
the Clubs and almost the entire audience.
