with fashionable and music-ioving audience,

maintained bis already great reputation rs the
best baliadist that has ever presented himself
to q Washington auditory, and we feel sure
that those who had the good fortune to be

statement. The programme was replete with
the choicest Scottish airs, 80 well rendered by
Mr.. Kennedy. His descriptive and humorous
stories, together with his delivery OF the poem
Of "watty and Meg; or How to Cure Scold.
Ing Wife," was delightful, Instructive, and
entertaining. The concert was concluded with
"Auld Lang Syne," the delighted audience
joining heartily in the chorus. In passing We
refer with pleasure to the admirable perform
anoe Of Miss Kennedy, who presided at the
piano. We congratulate the st. Andrews
Society on the pecuniary success Of the con-
cert.
