stole everything in the way Of wearing

The frequent occurrence of such rob-

States where depredatious by negro
thieves and their white allies are not

about immigration under such reign Of
atrocity; on the contrary, there will be
an exodus sufficient to leave Memphis
as barren of prosperity as Jerusalem in
the "grand time" Of the Turks.

The ORAToRIo AT ST. PETSh's. The
repetition at ST. Peters, last evening, of
the sacred concert, which few weeks
since was received with such favor as to
induce its repetition, refilled the spacious
edifice with refined and appreciative
auditory. By eight O'Clock there were
but few vacant seats, and these were
mostly taken as the entertainment pro-
crossed. The programme arranged by
Prof Sabatzky, with special reference to
the day and place, embraced SELECTIONS
from the broadcast range of sacred music,
and was a perfect bouquet of operate
gems. An organ Duet, executed by
Professors Sabatzky and Winkel was a
skillful and charming performance, aud
fully brought out all the granduer and
compass of the instrument, which is not
among the least valued appointments of
st. Peters. II preso Padre Eterno, q
trio was sung by Miss Rice, Mr.. Rice
and Prof. Jackowitz with fine effect
Miss Rice's alto, though at the outset her
voice scanned affected by hoarseness, was
admirable, Heaven Wept a Tear" q
charming German andante, sung by Mrs.
Keller, with organ accompaniment by
Prof. Sabatzky, and violin oblgdto by
Prof. Hollenberg, followed, and was,
perhaps, the gem of the evening. The
programme was here varied by learned
and interesting lecture on Sacred
Music" by Father Kelly; Immediately
following which, Mrs. Keller rendered
the Madre Pictosa Virginie, from the
opera of II Forsa del distino by Verdi,
again acquitting herself with great
credit The Pity, oh ! Savior" by ga
batzky, followed this and was grand
effort, and march from Der Prophet,
executed on the organ by Sabatzky and
Winkal closed the nerfotanance
