The Eercert opened with thirty voices ia
theckorfss' When the summer rain is over"
from L. Nsesere D'Amore Then followed
trio "9iti, Zitti," from the charming
opera BkrSer of Seville-which, though
rendered with much spirit, happened to be
beyond oir comprehension, as We speak not
the dulcel language of Italia.
Next cane Baritone Solo, GAS View
these Scene so Charming" sung by Mr..
Atkisson, the accompaniment by Miss Fitz
hugh. A sopian solo, "Picolomini Waltz"
was pleasantly sung by Miss -.
Theneamek sweet piano solo, 'Rigaletta,"
sung by a swyet voiced lady whose name
we did not leirn. Then the silence is bro

the delight OF the audience. Then Miss |
Fitzhugh gsveIus some of those exquisite |
touches, whichfwould have excited the adj |
miration of thd old masters. Still the audi |
ence were not satisfied, and in response TO |
an enthusiastic encore she threw from her |
finger tips a waive Of rich melody over the |
admiring auditbry.

which was highly appreciated by all.
The chorus, As the Hart pants" fol-
lowed by the air, For my Soul thirsteth |
for God" was . gush Of sacred music, ele-
waiting the soul to divine musings. The
other chorussesi and recitstions, blending
as many as thirty voices, were executed
with skill and grace. Such exhibitions of
the beauties OF sacred music will tend to
put il on a higher scale than We are ac-
customed to assign it.
From the size ofthe audience, We imagine
there will be rejoicing in the Protestant
Orphan Asylum when they receive the
liberal donations given them last night
