LADIES' EDUCATIONAL SOCIETY. Our

representation on Friday evening last. The
object sought to bo effected by this organiza-
ton is a most commendablo one, and the re-
suits of their indefatigablo cxortions is, so
far, highly gratifying. In addition to tho
regular contribution of stock, handsome sum
has already been realized by the efforts Of tho
Ladies', towards building the Female College
, at this point. Wore the performances of less
intrinsic merit, their aim and design would
commend thom to the patronage of all those
in our midst who believe in home growth and
enterprise.
Tho ladies (who are much tho best part of
crcaton) have boen foremost in this good
work, and wo trust will allow of no abate-
mcpt of zeal until success has crowned their
exertions. On tho occasion referred to we
wore pleased. Tho innocent hilarity and
contagious joyousness Of the lads and lassies
affected with sympathetic touch, even our
heart which has grown somewhat hardened
by rough contact with boistorous world and
for q little while VIC feel ourself growing young
again. The ladies in charge are entitled to
credit for their energy and taste.

COSTLY The rendition of the various pieces
exhibited just conception of character and
plot.
The "Camp Scene" was particularly we'll
done and elected, on the descent of tho cur
tain, hearty round of applause The little
girls threaded tho witching mazcs of the
dance most gracefully, and reflected credit
upon their instructrcss.
We shall not soon forget the lovely and
smiling countcnancc Of tho " vcilcd Prophet
Of Korassan."
Circumstances urged our departure before
the close of the performance, but from others
we learn that general satisfaction was given,
and complete enjoyment characterized the
evening.
Our friend p was on hand, and dscourscd
harmony Of sweet sounds, without which
the enjoyment would have boon exceedingly
incomplete.
