on these occasions that tho connosscur should pre-
sent himself; but by all means let him shun tho
corners If ho wishes to escape tho angry looks Of
the fair and the smotcrod execrations of their
happy attendants. Rather lot him, best he
may, work his way along with careful eyo to all
possible contingencies, such as stepping on the
ladies' dresses, or sone other Outre action. 1t
would bo far better for him to play tho agreeable to
some Of tho gay and fair, and our word for it, ho
will SEQ moro than he could have done with his
unaided eyes.
Whom the evening shades begin to fall now beau
tics are added to the scene, and from every storo
lights glcam upon the slowly dispensing throng.
King street is then in blaze, and the many color
ed lamps in the drug stores throw subduod mel
low light upon the sidewalk that almost rivals the
moonlight. Although promenade is not as
wido as could be desired, yet it is wol paved, and
with all collisions may DO avoided. 1t is do
cidcdly the best We have, and tho patronage be-
slowed upon it shows plainly tho appreciation in
which it is held by the community.
No recreation is moro healthy and pleasant than
evenings stroll upon King stroot, and it is, por
haps, fortunate that all who wish arc unable to
indulge in this qualification, or tho City Fathers
would have to widen the sidewalk for their accom-
modation. To confirmed bachelors and young
men who arc opposed to matrimony, we would
suggest word OF advice: Take at least an
occasional walk OH King street, and if the bright
and beautiful faces seen there do not tompL them
to turn Boncdcts, they will have to die in their
folly. There is 10 hope for them.
ScInEE MUsIcALE.-Thcre was a large and very
select audience at the Hall again last night. Tho
Idbaeaur Viuants are decidedly popular, and we
nrc not surprised ut this; for we do not remember
ever to have seen such al union Of grace, beauty
and loveliness here present themselves nightly
to the view Of tho enrapturcd spectators. Each
tdbleau appeared to surpass all that preceded it,
but tho palm doubtless belongs to ''Raphaers
Studio, which achieved the most brilliant triumph
and was cncored again and yet again.
The twenty minutes intermission was properly
improved by the audience. Music and poetry are
all very well, but the inner man has his claims,
and the elegant array in the lower hall showed that
tho presiding ladies had made ample preparations
for due recognition Of said claims.
Next came tho concert. "h,felice" from Err
nani was sung with much expression by one of
our best amateurs. La File du Regiment, by the
lady violinist and piano accompaniment, pleased
very much, and was encorcd but the lateness of
the hour prevents noticing NIL the peffor-
mances in detail. Everything went off admirably.
The ladies havo been urged to continue these
exhibitions few nights longer, und yielding to
these friendly solicitations they have consented to
accommodate the public again tonight.
TURN VEREIN.-After long vacation, tho Tnrn-
ers have recommended their regular fortnightly
evening entertainments. Tho programme opened
with song, rendered in first rate style by q num-
bcr Of good well-drled Turner voices, doing cred
it to their preceptor, Professor HOFFMAN.
The prologue, celebrating the re-opening of the
theatrical entertainments, was fine piece Of mo-
trical composition written for the occasion by Mr.
VooLER. 1t was listened to with much attention,
and fully appreciated by the aesthetic portion Of
the audience.
The main feature Of the evening was O fvc-act
drama, "narie Anne oder Gin IVeib aus den,
Volke" There being years interval between tho
first and second acts, we deemed it most condu-
| civo to tho interests of tho DAILY News to leave
before the curtain rose for the second act.
MULLEns band played the interludes.

mont.

peared he was discharged with warning to dance

A Awife-maulng case was brought up for adjust

statements that it was difficult to decide who was
the most to blame, and they were referred to O
Magistrate to settle the difficulty.

control their curiosity, and will look into bottle
was picked up in collapsed state on door step

worthy of his attention. by charging him S. for his
