the city.
We could not abstain from speaking in high
terms of it if there was no one else to figure
ON the occasion than the accomplished and
talented Carncross, who, years ago, in
Philadelphia, acquired reputation which
drew around him host of admirers, among
them ourselves. He lacked nothing then,
as an accomplished artist; but if he did,
years of training and experience have per-
fected his rare talent as a tenor singer.
With Mr.. Carncross will appear Miss
Susan Galton, whose name appropriately
heads the list, is caastatrice who has
achieved an eminent position. She is, we
believe, niece of Louisa Pyne, and re-
ceived thorough musical education in
