Only select few of the friends of the school were
invited, and, consequently, the affair was not pub
lic 1t is, we understand, a production of the
prolific pen of Prof. Hewitt, who has charge of
the musical department. of the Institute, and who
presided at the pianofortc and otherwise directed
the rehearsal The singing was intcrspersed with
poetical speeches by the various characters per-
senate l-,some of them rich in genuine poetry
Among the most effective chorEsscs were "Thc
Echo " and " The Sunbeanls are glancing." The
solos, particularly those of the charming young
lady from Woodstock, who represented 'Fora,"
took us by surprise. AS this was only a rehear,
al, we presume the Cantata will be produced at a
more appropriate season, hen the kingdom Of
Flora is in full bloom, and nature has put on her
garment of green. The song Of Come, pretty
Bird met with no response in the dingy hall of
institution of learning-thc invitation of the
pretty little Zephyr should have been given in the
fields or woods The Cantata was preceded by
an instrumental Concert, in which several young
ladies displayed great proficiency the piano

that was highly fattering to those concerned !;
and great desire is manifested to hear its perfect
