froggy who told his fellows Of the happy land, and
it was instantly settled by colony Of croakers,
who nightly hymn their notes of praise to the
parties who kindly furnished them this paradise.

in mastery style, was last night rendered IN

the days that are gone by. The voice OF the

noble cornposition Eer conception is pure, aud
her execution of the very highest order. We have
no hesitation in predicting that this solo will be
considered the gem of the evening.
The organ accompaniment throughout WAS mcst
exquisite never claiming an undue preponderance,
vet atfording full support to the voice. None
but master can give such accompaniment. Fur

The church. we feel assured, will be crowded to
it's utmost capacity for we have many persons
here who can appreciate good music, and who will
not lose this opportunity gratifying their taste.
