TIE GRAND CONCERT TO-N1GHT.-The
First Baptist church, kindly rendered for
the purpose, will be open tonight for one
of the finest musical treats with which our
citizens have been favored during this year,
marked by 80 many entertainments Of high
order. The concert will be given by some
of our mos. accomplished lady and gentle
man amateurs to raise funds towards the
completion of the United Presbyterian
church, a building now being erected on
the corner of Fourth and Grace streets, and
which bids fair to be the finest house of
worship in our city, and lasting monu-
ment to the enterprise and perseverance of
the pastor and people, who anxiously look
forward to the time when they shall there
lay their offerings before the Most High.
Every public-spirited citizen is interested
in this enterprise no less than those who are
professed worshippers Of the living God. In
their efforts, the congregation has not made
many calls upon our own people; for of the
100000 thus far raised, three dollars have
been collected elsewhere to one in the city
of Richmond, and about one-half of: the
sum collected outside has been contributed
by friends at the North, the pastor having
travelled all over the country presenting
his peoples cause.
The programme for the concert tonight
is in every way attractive, but those who
love and can appreciate good music will be
especially pleased with the rendition of
i" The Creation of Haydn, which has been
heard by successive generations in the Old
and New World, only to crown its illustri-
GUS composer with fresh laurels. His last
appearance in public was on the occasion Of
its performance at the great hall of the Uni
versity of Vienna, when he was over
whelmed with the applause which greeted
his master piece. Those who take part in
the performance tonight rank with our
best amateurs, and it is confidently pre-
dicted that the concert, as whole, will be
perhaps the grandest and undoubtedly the
most fashionable entertainment of the sea-
son.

great sensation IN Paris, the demand for 1t being
great that the presses can hardly supply it. II
his majesty read it through he had the pleasure of
perusing some of the most exquisite sarcasm
about himself and his dynasty and his system OF
government that has yet been uttered Every
line Of il spsrkles with the wit OF the editor, NJ
Henri Rochetort, whose audacity in treating of
political subjects is only equaled by his skill.
One OF the neatest hits is made in the claim of
NJ. RochefOrt TO be a BOnapartist. BE protests
that he Is a Bonapartist, ardent BOnapartisr,
but then be claims his right TO choose the psrtcu
lar Bonaparte whom be admires. His ideal is Ma
poleOn the Second whom he eloquently eul0-
gzes and we have but to recall the life and
career OF that lean nincompoop to understand
how his selection tickled the Parisians. This ad-
mirabe Bonaparte, Gays NJ. Rochefort, never
levied contributions, never decimatsd his people
by wars, undertook no distant expeditions where
500 600 0C0 francs were expended to recover some
thing under a louis, had no devOuring civil list
and no ministers filing five or SIX functions at
leo 600 francs piece. IL Is not hard to infer
from this that NJ ROcheforts BOlaDartism does
not extend to the First or the Third Napoleon. A
correspondent in writing about the new journal,
and the effect it at once produced, says truly that
in Paris 1t IL rather dar yerous thing for an EN-
peror TO find all the Boulevard laughing at him
and his system.

A June IdYl.
BY JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL.

May is pious fraud Of the almanac,
A CHASTITY parody of real spring,
shaped out of snow and breathed with eastern
wind;
Or if, DER confident. she trust the date,
And with her handful of anemones,
Herself as shivery, steal into the sun,
The season need but turn bis hour glass round,
And winter suddenly, like crazy Lear,
Reels back, and brings the dead May in his arms,
Her budding breasts and wan dslustred trout
With frosty streaks and drifts of his white beard
All overblown. Then, warmly walled with books,
While my wood fire supplies the suns defect
Whispering old forestsagas in its dreams,
i take my May down from the happy shelf
Where perch the worlds rare song birds in a row,
Waiting my choice to open with full breast,
And beg an aims of spring time, ne'er denied
Indoors by yernal Cbaucer. whose fresh woods
Throb thick with merle and mavs all the year.
But June is fgl of invitations sweet,
Forth from the chimney's yawn and thrice-read
tones
To leisurely delights and sauntering thoughts
That brook no ceiling narrower than the blue.
The cherry, drest for bridal, at my pane
Brushes, thep listens, Win be come The bee,
All dusty as miller, takes his toll
OF powdry gold, and grumbles. What day
To sun me and do nothing Nay, think
Merely TO bask and ripen is sometimes
The Students wiser business the brain
That forages all climes TO line its cells,
Ranging beth worlds on lightest wings Of wish,
VIII not distil the juices it has sucked
To the sweet substance of pellucid thought,
Except for him who hath the secret learned
To mix his blood with sunshine, and to take
The winds into his pulses. Hush 'Tis hel
My OTi0le, my glance of summer fire,
Is come at last, and, ever on the watch,
1witches the pack-thread | had lightly wound
About the bough to help his housekeeping
Twitches and scouts by turns blessing his luck,
Yet fearing me who laid II in his way,
Nor. more than wiser we in our affairs,
Divines the providence that hides and helps.
Heave, ho! Heave, no! he whistles as the twine
Slackens its hold once more, now and fash
Lightens across the sunlight to the elm
Where his mate bangles at her cup of felt.
Nor all his booty is the thread he trails
Ny loOsened thought with il along the air,
And | must follow, would | ever find
The inward rhyme to all this wealth Of life.
