Concert In Camden.

Under the direction of Miss Nellie NJ. Barr,
late of Boston, whose pupils composed the lar
ger part of the performers, an excellent concert
Of vocal and instrumental music was given in
Camden on Thursday evening last. 1t was a
complete success and met the expectation Of
every one. Miss Lizzie Lord and Miss Minnie
Clements performed several instrumental solos
and Duets with an accuracy and finish rarely
met with in young ladies' of their age. There
was one duett particularly sweet. !" Bayeaux
Quickstep," by Miss Minnie Clements on the
piano and Master Willie Clements Ia little boy
of six summers) on the drum excited much at
tention, and did not of course fail of an encore.
The time was very accurate. The lst soprano
sung by Miss Benetta Townsend and I'd sOpra.
no by Miss Elma Carrow was exceedingly well
executed. Mr.. Richard Carrow and Mr.. Z: il:
Street each sang bass solos of much musical
merit. 1.-THE Gambler Wife by the latter
was artistically executed, but his rendering OF
two humorous songs-'The Sneezing Man
and '"The Unfortunate Man were inlmltable
and brought down the house IN rounds OF ap-
plause. Two or three pieces sung by MISS
Fannie Morris in a clear sweet voice ana WIN
girlish artlessness was much admired.
But the presiding genius who gave spirit TO
and under whose direction the piano was made
to perform such an important part, was MISS
Barr. To her the audience and citizens were
indebted for the rich musical treat H.

To Our Patrons.

As announced last week, Robt. d. Hoffecker,
until renctly editor and proprietor of the TIMES,
has disposed of his interest in the paper to the
person whose name stands at the head of the |
present issue; the change taking place on the |
1st instant.
III taking charge of the paper we deem but
few words necessary on our part. Printing
is our legitimate. our only, business. The re-
cent proprietor, having formed other business
engagements, determined to relinquish his inter
est in the TIMES. In consideration of the fact
: above stated, and believing its continuance as
necessary to the business interests of the town
and county, we decided to take charge of the es-
tablishment.
In assuming the duties of the new position
as editor We deeply feel the responsibilities de-
volving upon us, and accept them with not
few misgivings as to our ability to fulfill the
task involved.
Having been connected with the mechani-
cal department of the Office for several years,
we have had but little experience in the duties
OF the sanctum an apprenticeship in the lat
ter is equally as important as that of the for.
mer, We cannot, therefore, be expected to
perform the duties OF editor as with the pen
OF ready writer. :" We vii, state, moreover
that, while assuming the new relation, we re
linquish none of th- labors ofthe old one either
Of which are sufficient ESPECIALLY the latter
to employ all our energies. Ii, therefore, b.
reason of the two-fold duties we are obliged t.
fill, scissors should furnish more articles thai
&ho hama L.
the situation albeit, scissors may prove tn
better editor.
The sentiments heretofore expressed in tn
paper will still be advocated. Were the affair
of the country as they existed before the wa
we could prefer to leave politics to the pol
ticians. Then, men had common end I
accOmplish-they differed only as to the mean
The most to DO obtained by the success of
party was the spoils accruing to the victor
In the present critical condition of the countI
the issues are far more important than ii
mere success of partizan issues They a
Union or Disunion-I4iberty or Anarchy
Upon the success or failure of the North in Il
present conflict depends the success or failu
of republican institutions That it may be su
cessful every effort of the present Administr
ton is tending; that it may fail, many in OF
lnidst, We have reason to believe, sincere
hope. We shall therefore give hearty su
port to the party in power. That support mi
be small, but it will be that much in the rig
direction we shall fulfil duty and our ov
inclinations
We do not purpose, for the present at leas
to make any change in the general appearan,
of the paper, What change We may make
the future will depend upon our success
success we have. All news of local
