PAREPA.

This great vocal artistic, the reigning
queen Of song, will make her second appear
ance in this city, at Metzerott hall, on
Thursday evening The sweet recollection
Of her charming voice, her graceful bearing
and the exquisite vocal finish Of every piece
she executed fingers in the memory Of the
select audience that listened to her on her
first appearance. For compass Of voice,
sweetness Of tone, and skill in execution,
PAREPA has no living superior, and few, il
any, equals. Like LIND she fascinates and
wins the hearts Of her audiences. She has
already captivated the great Atlantic cities.
New York, Boston and Philadelphia open
their largest halls to her, and she fills them
by her attractive vocal powers. The New
York Tribune, speaking Of PAREPA and the
accomplished artistes who accompany her,
says:
"But as we cannot retain PAREPA and her
confreres, we commend them to our friends
and readers throughout the country as al
together the most complete and admirable
concert troupe that has left New York in q
dozen years, to delight with their talents and
accomplishments the multitudes Of our mu-
sic-loving people, scattered over the face Of
the country"

commence at MErzERorr's music store to-

Greeley Among the "Hyenas,"-Hs
Swears Down q Cannon.

The New York correspondent Of the radi-
cal Boston Commonwealth gives the follow
ing account of HORACE GREELEY's speech in
the City Hall Park, when the New Workers,
by their howls, prevented Gen. BUTLER from
being heard:
"At last the General [Wallbridgel was anx-
ious to see if the byenas would listen to
Horace Greeley At this time an enthusi-
astic Republican kept firing healthy cannon
that scared the veteran Greeley's nerves.
Pressing forward to Gen. Wallbridge, (the
chairman) Greeley, in q nervous trepidation,
jerked out, "If you don't stop that Cd
id cannon I'll leave the stand. l can't
speak with that d-d thing; it will drown my
voice" never knew that Greeley's genial
face could look fierce, or that he could swear,
till that moment 1t was, however, trying
time for talking editors. The cannon was
silenced, and Greeley spoke the hyenas re-
posing from their severe but inglorious tolls.
A strong body Of police faithfully guarded
the stand. Greeley's speech was short, not
eloquent or vigorous; he was nervous, pressed
to speak, and uncertain as to whether the
gathering would break up with fighting"
