THE CONCERT LAST NIGRT.--The Con-
cert given by the Philha- monte Society
last evening was a decided success; the
Court House WAS filled with large
and apprecative audience, who frequently
gave signs of their appreciation by bursts of
applause. Some of the performers being
seriously i'll, the Society was obliged to alter
the Programme in several places; notwith-
standing the annoyance and arrangement
of their plans by this. they gave an enter
tainment that added new laurels to their
well earned reputation. The singing of
Miss Agnes Snrteve was peculiarly
sweet, and her efforts are deserving of
great praise. Tho Duetts on the Piano by
Mrs. kittridge and Mrs. Flagg, were splen-
did selections and spjritedly executed. The
singing of"Catholinu. Lament for the old
ytar," SHERIDAN Cavalry Sheridan"
'.Ship on Fire." DC, WAS particularly fine
We might go Mn and mention every song
on the Programme, bur want of space CO II
pels US to confine ourselves to the few that
struck us as particularly fine. Tho singers
all acquitted themselves creditahly, and we
were pleased TO see them meet with the
encouragement they did. Wehope to hear
them asalh ere long.-Daily 2lst.

be seen by observing persons, examining
every dog that bore the fAintest resem.

or three days ago however, his patience
was rewarded Sir, by the sight Of the long
lost canine-as he supposed-trotting
peaceably behind the wagon ola farmer
from Davis County, Bradbury by name.
To pounce upon the .sanimele'' was the
work of an instant, and to bear him off in
triumph was the work OF another, but
Bradbury thinks, says he, that he'd like
to know something about this matter and
demanded an explanation land the dog
from our friend G,-which was given in
about the following language. "For why
you steals mine tog?" which insinuation
was Indignantly repealed by Bradbury.

dog. then he didn't, then he id and again
he didn't, ditto Dutchman. Meanwhile
the sweetness of the parties tempers were
getting considerably soured. and friend
Bradbury capped the climax by taking

of Moss's Store, Thus securing him AS he
thought. But SIT was not thuslv as thus

is not easily overcome especially by trifles
He goes quietly to work and musters his
forces, summoning fifteen Of his friends
who are ready and willing to swear to his
ownership.of the "purp" from the far off
regions of Davis. Our friend q. has not
been idle in the meantime and he also is
HIS anu mas something
less than thirty witnesses to swear to his
claims to tho risky canine.
Thus standeth the matter at present; and
both parties are br"athlessIy waiting the
decision of squire Potter, before whom
the caseis trying. Question: Who 'sgoing

We advise, like Eing Solomon. of old, did
