GoTTscHALK's concert OF last night at Seatoa
Hall attracted a large and fashionable audience.

Muzio, a. the kids are always part OF the per.
fermance with Mr.. G.. Miss Lucy S,mons.
however, young vocalist with a sparkling,
Hesn ana powerful voice, such as we have not
heard In Washington for some time, at lesst
not within the last two years, electrified thu
audience TO such an extent, that they patiently
bore the disappointment Of Mr.. Gottschalk
Miss Simons Possesses a soprano voice OF ex-
trene sweetness and inflexibility, her upper
notes being particularly effective, clear and
bell. like. She is apparently above II or Is
years of age, and presents most bewitchins
exterior. We understand that she is to appear
in Sonambula at the Academy of Music in
MIR. GottschaIk played several OF his mos,
favorite pieces. Signor Ardavani is well
known here; he is q fine artist. The Duet (I.aci
darem la Mano) was most beautifully execu-
ted. II was undoubtedly the gem OF the con.
cert. This evening Is to be the last of Gstt-
schals's farewell concert,
