The CONCERTS, LECTURE. &c.

The concerts and lecture of last Thursday and
Friday evenings were cmincntly successful, and
highly creditable to all concerned The singing
of the. young ladies, sweet-toned, clear and dis
tinct, was never surpassed by amcteurs; and was
listened to by the audience with. much pleasure
and great satisfaction. Col. HArsE's well-writ'
ten,and beautiful lecture exhibited high order
of intellect, and won the admiration of all who
heard it. But the Eth:opeans brought down the
house" on every occasion. THOR funny sayings
.inimical singing, playing and dancing kept every
body in a-continual roar. I'M fact everything
passed OF well, and to the entire satisfaction OF
the public, These entertainments too were also
successful in q peeugiary point of riew, near
$4,000 being the nett proceeds of tnestwo eve
ninss. This amount has beca turned over to the
ladies of the /" Soldiers Home"
