An extraordinary step has lately been
taken in photography. By q process which
is still secret, NJ. Adolphe Braun, of Dor
mach (Haut-Rhin) has produced an i'm
mense number of fac siailes Of the best
drawings left by the great masters: These
new photographs are superior to all former
works Of the same kind in the ordinary ex-
cellencies of detail and surface quality.
They also reproduce exactly the tint of the
origiinal-neutral, brown, red, or greenish,
as the case may be. They are confidently
asserted to be absolutely permanent, but
this must. of course remain to be proved by

THE CONCERT.-The lateness Of the hour
at which the performance closed prevented
more extended notice OF this really ex-
cellent entertainment in our issue of yester-
day. The first entertainment Of the kind
since the close Of the Lenten season, 1t was
attended by an audience at once large, Sc
lect, and appreciative. Rarely have we
seen gathered in the dress circle OF the
Theatre more of the beauty and fashion
of Richmond. And everybody seemed
charmed, judging no less from the pleasant
faces than from the never-failing applause
and the shower of bouquets which were
lavished upon some Of our fayorite anna
teurs.
Two male voices, new to the Richmond
public, were introduced in the opening duet
Larboard Watch, Ahoy!" These gen.
tlemen have reason to congratulate them
selves upon their success. "See the Pale
Moon" charming little duet, was render
ed in beautiful style by Mrs. B. and Miss
g., both of whom deserve special mention
for well-sustained parts. Madame Ruhl
and Mrs. Loockerman received their usual
rapturous encores. We could mention nc
part of the performance at which exceptions
could be made, but cannot refrain from
word of special commendation for one fea'
ture-the chorus.
Fully one hundred of our best, well,
trained amateurs were ON the stage to assist
in the Jubilate,,' the "Vesper Hymn,
and the last grand chorus from Haydn'E
"Creation." The quartette and chorus o.
81 .Jubilate y were loudly encored. The solo
in Crowned with the Tempest " was also
admirably rendered.
The second concert was announced fol
last night, but owing to the inclemen'
weather,was postponed until Friday, wher
there will doubtless be another fine enter
tainment, and full house to greet th'
amateurs of the Association.

The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1868-08-01

THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT has been pro-
rogued, and in the speech made by the Queen
she thanks the Commons, among other things,
for the passage of the bill for the purchase of
the telegraph wires throughout the kingdom.
In the United States much greater necessity
exists for the adoption of similar policy, and
it is to be regretted that the bill introduced
into Congress to establish an experimental
line between Washington and New York was
defeated. In an age when private business
firms establish long telegraphie lines in this
country, and when nearly all European nations
thoroughly combine their telegraphic and
postal systems, it is mortifying that we'll
devised attempt to ascertain the practicability
OF similar system in this country should
have been defeated. We trust Mr.. Washburne
will renew his efforts until they are finally
crowned with success.
