THE CoNcERr.-From all appearances there
will be large audience at the Concert at City
hall this evening, and there is no reason why
there should not be. 1t is first class concert
and one that cannot fail to give satisfaction to
all who may attend. The performances are SO
varied as to suit the tastes of all, and the price
of tickets places admission within the reach of
the great mass of people in our city who are so
fond of listening to charming music.
Tickets and reserved seats. can be secured at
Schlotterbeckis until o'clock this evening
after that time at the hall. Esl.

SMAsHUP.-A horse attached to sleigh
without driver, came down Congress street
yesterday afternoon at killing pace, clearing
the street of vehicles and pedestrians, keeping
his way clear 10 the summit of Munjoy, where
he was stopped and his driver came up, who
got in and attempted to drive him back But
no sooner had the horse started than he
took fright, some portion of the sleigh touch
ing his heels, and started upon the run up
Congress street. At the corner of Pearl street
some persons made an attempt to stop him,
which caused him to turn, upsetting the sleigh,
throwing out the driver, and smashing the ve-
hicle. Being detached from the sleigh the
horse started with the fills down Pearl street
TO Cumberland, and thence along, up Preble
and Congress streets to the stable of Messrs
Libby & Dow where he was secured. 1t was
lively time in the streets through which he
passed. = 'EH B e-.s- 1I df#T3 ..rt.'..gar
