Portland Society of Natural History,

The report of the Committee, upon the
financial condition of this Society, which was
made at the special meeting held last Monday,
has been published on sheet for distribution.
The debt of the Society, which must be paid
is about $4,000; and it is proposed to raise
the sum of $4,000 for the purpose of paying
of the debt, and establishing fund of $1o,-
600, the interest of which, together with the
interest of any addition that may be made to
1t from time to time, shall only be used in pro-
noting the objects of the Society, while the
principal shall forever remain untouched.
Active and efficient measures are now in
progress to carry this measure into effect.
Some of our most entsrprising and public
spirited citizens have taken hold OF the matter.
and by their efforts, as well as their liberal do
nations, seem determined that this institution,
which is the pride of our city, shall yet flourish,
and its valuable cabinets be preserved for the
qualification of our own community, and of
strangers who may visit us.
A Committee of forty citizens has been ap-
pointed to collect subscriptions for this pur
pose. The members of it will call upon our
citizens, and we hope all who can afford will
subscribe in the most liberal manner, that the
Society may be placed upon a sure founda-
ton, and be made an honor to our city and
State

The Grand uonoart.

The lovers of good music will bear in mind
that three celebrated artists appear this even
ing at City Hall, Mile. Helene De Katow,
Mr.. james M. Wehli, and Miss Laura Harris,
Ia combination of musical talent which sell
dom visits our city. From all we can learn of
these artists, we venture the opinion that we
shall have one the richest concerts of the sea-
son, excelling any we have had for "a long
time. and giving our citizens taste Of classic
music of great excellence. We anticipate a
large, brilliant and fashionable audience. Re-
served seats may be had at Paine's to-day.
Helene is beautiful, and makes her favorite in
instrument discourse the sweetest music.
Therefore common prudence would seem to
dictate the procuring seat net far from the
foot lights, where one can see the nimble fin
gers sweep the strings, and hear the most del
icate tones of the music.

FIRE. - Between twelve and one o'clock
Saturday night, fire was discovered in two
story house on Clark Street, owned by the
heirs of the late Judge E ..ery, and occupied
by two Irish families. Notwithstanding a

Gated by the smoke before the fire was discov-
