HENRY VMcENT's LECTURE last evening was
an entire success. The well-known abilities of
this brilliant English orator served to draw out
to his lecture large audience, who manifested

Writings OF Jehn Milton. He brought forward

in language beautiful and comprehensive, and
those who heard him obtained a far deeper in
sight into the true history OF the poet than
biography. Mr. Vincent is a lecturer OF rare
power, and we would advise those who enjoy
an intellectual banquet to attend his next lee
ture, at Concert Hall, on Tomorrow evening,
when he d1scourses on "Garibaldi."
