The ORGAN CoEoERT LAST NIaHT.-It may
be said in the outset that the project of
giving organ concerts up and down the
country, is an experiment. Western peO-
pie are not used to hat kind Of. musical en-
tertaiments, and he must be q very SUI
perior performer who can succeed in over
coming the chronic popular prejudice to q
| G1secular" concert in the church and on an
instruments esteemed B9mI-5uCrDuJ H1~-
organ. Nevertheless the novelty of the ex-
pertinent helps much in thaWing that prof.
udice. But however all that may be,
certain it is hat G. W. Morgan had q very
large, appreciative house last night, and
equally certain is it, that he delighted
them with his performance. Nearly every
piece was encored, Inc as concerns enthu-
siasm and expressions of favor n satis-
faction, we were reminded Of the nights of
tbe famous operas The concert was a per
feet success. No finer music has ever been
heard in this city.
The programme embraced choice selec-
tons from the works of several of the clas-
steal composers, besides those of more re-
cent date, and was truly a rare musical
feast. We cannot refer to these in detail
though we would gladly do SO, but must be
allowed the expression of the opinion that
Mendelssohn's Overture, Midsummer
Nights Dream" was the browning feature
of the evenings performance. 1t would be
difficult to imagine anything more besuti-
full than this competition. It received a
hearty encore, to which MI. Morgan respond
ed by playing variations on "The Last
Rose of Summer" The extempore varis-
tions on "Home, Sweet Home" performed
by request, were of all things most delicate
and pure. Those tones will linger sn the
ear for long years.
IMr. Morgsn's manner is on the whole
quiet and self-possessed, and he never al
lows himself 10 go off into gymnsstic fests
which, as is true of some performers, are
| ridiculous, and which remind one of the
Jockey expression, "aIl action and no CO."
And yet his pedal exercises are sometimes
in the general line, of clog-dancing-as
graceful, perfect and wonderful as the best
feats in that specially.
Mr.. Morgan will give another organ con-
cert in the First Presbyterian Church on
Thursday night. Those who did not hear
him last night, have thus another oppOrtu-
nifty, and we advise them to attend. Organ
concerts will probably take q leading rsnk
hereafter among our musical festivals. The
music best suited to this noble instrument
belongs to the highest class, and is that
which, sooner han any other, will develop
a correct musical taste, and an enlarged
musical love aud appreciation.

REVENUE CUTTER COMMODORE PERBY.-This
singular looking craft which ran into our
harbor the other day like q wild Arab, and
as noiselessly stole away almost before any
one had q chance to look at her, will prob
ably touch here again in q few days on her
return trial trip from Fort Gratiot in the
St. Clair river, and We hope she will then
~ifOu ~ i.-r-~tia- 20 be nade Of her Peou-
l~isrities and the superiorities which are
claimed for her. Meantime we will antici-
pate by giving a summary of her points, as
found in the Detroit papers. Her dimen-
sions are as follows:
She measures about 400 tons burthen, and
is I75 feet in length over all; her breadth
is IS feet, SO feet over all her depth is 10
feet 4 inches, and draws 81 feet of water.
She is worked by 4 engines of 80 inch
stroke, and Is inch bore. There are two to
each wheel, yoked 70 right angle cranks in
the same manner ss q locomotive-in fact,
they are perfect locomotive engines, only
larger. These engines are placed on the
gunwale Of the boat, with heavy, castiron
head plates, with two thirteen feet propel-
Ter wheels on each side. She has two boil
ers, Captain Whittaker's patent, containing
FIRE service of $500 feet. For g vessel Of
her size, she exhibits q great deal of ac-
commodation. The ward room is high,
spacious and comfortably fitted up. The
Captains cabin is situated Immediately aft,
and is a roomy apartment. The forward
berth deck is large, six feet high and con-
tains ample accommodation. Her arma-
ment consists of four guns-twO "a poun-
der brass hoWitzers, aft, and two rided Par
rotts of the same calibre forward, all broad
side. She is pierced for II guns, but will
only carry four exceptin case of emergency.
She was built after models, plans and de.
signs of Captain Harry Whitaker, and has
quite equslled, if not excelled, all the in
ventor anticipated. 1t is expected that
when she is in good running order she will
make eighteen or twenty miles per hour
with ease. She will probably be command
ed. when she enters government service,
by Captain Douglas ottinger.
