/ EASTMAN COLLEGE BAND.-The con-
cert at the Opera House last evening was
well attended. and the intelligent audi
ence gave evidence by frequent applause
that the performance was satisfactory
1t il hard To discriminate and point out
the best rendered piece, but we usually
like those pieces best that have the time so
strongly marked that we are obliged to
make an effort to keep our feet still. We
are aware, however, that such is not fash
ionable music. nor is it as difficult 10 per-
form, as the music that is not placed in
regular measure. The. selections last
evening were If both kinds, and judici-
ous,v made.
We were Il little amused when the
" Railroad Galop" was being performed,
III which were distinctly heard the puff
of the engine, the rattle Of the wheels,
aud the ringing ot the bell, to see many
al the audience hnxiously looking a. if
expecting the train to enter and run
s"ro-S the stage.
The last piece performed ertitlcd Let

t.v the letder, Mr. Morgan. nf several ma
t1on,I ans. among which "Amcric, and
'~Oid John Brown" were particularly con-
apicuon~ and ELECTED much applause from
the audience.
