MALE ORPHAN AsYLUM.-A called meet
ing of the Board of Managers of the Male
Orphan Asylum was held in the Office OF
Mr.. William F. Taylor on Saturday after

operations Of the Society during the past

81, ,275 .3S-leaving balance on hand at
this time of $33S.07.

CoSsc1EScE-sa1TTEN.-A young man who
had purchased ticket for Providence on the
2:40 train this afternoon suddenly bethought
himself that he had !" forgotten something, 2
and just as the ferryboat had left the slip
asked Mr.. James Bowen, mate OF the orlole,
to stop the boat. His request being disre-
earded, he made frantic leap for the shore,
but failing in his purpose, landed in the
water. He at once struck out for the shore,
and soon reached the head Of the pier, and
climbed up the, wall. On being asked by
the persons at heswharf the object of his
strange proceeding, he replied in broken
accents, his voice choked with emotion and
salt water, that he had forgotten to tell his
wife that he was going to Providence. The
latest dispatch from our special correspon-
dent states that the young man was engaged
in fishing for his hat and valise with tackle
which he borrowed from a fisherman on the
wbarf.-FaH Riuer Times. el.,-g..,s

THE CONCERT.-The members of the
Richmond Musical Benevolent Association
may be congratulated on the success attend
ing their efforts to afford our amusement
lovers chaste but attractive vocal enter
tainment. We have previously spoken OF
the first concert. The second, given on FRI
day night, was even more successful than
the first, so far as the audience was con-
cerned. The crowd assembled was larger,
and embraced more of the beauty and
fashion of the city.
Frankness compels us to say that some
of the solos and choruses did not fulfil
the expectations of the audience. Upon
other features of the entertainment we car
hardly be too lavish of praise. In the
Mermaid's Evening Song" trio, Miss Ida
Smiths fine voice was well displayed. She
was sustained by the baritone Of Mr.. Ege
and the sweet alto Of Mrs. B. Mrs. Locker
man excelled herself in g sPerche Non," anC
retired from the stage followed by raptu
rous applause and laden with floral wreatht
and bouquets. The ehoruses in the second
part were all rendered in good time and
with telling effect. Perhaps the best Wal
I" The Heavens are Telling" Madame Rub
was supported in "Casta Diva" by some
of our best lady and gentleman amateurs
and received hearty encore. Miss Baratt'
was three times called out, and sang " Yor
Naughty, Naughty Men, and the encore
verse, /" You Dear, Delightful Men," in
manner which elected the most uproarlous
applause from the male portion of the
audience.
Much credit is due Professor Thilow fol
his part at the piano. Our excellent orches
ira, under Professor Kessnich, are also en-
titled to high encomiums for their share O
the performance. Their oyertures ART
always artistically rendered.
