The Vermont HaielnaH & Safe JoNT-
val Of March 1870, says:
This young Lady twenty year, OF
agc) gave two dramatic readings IN va
lage Hall to good houses. We leel this
week strengthened. m the conviction which
we expressed m oar last issue. that Miss
Gregory is really a very fne reader and
We are glad 20 know that We then ex-
pressed the opinion OF others, who have
since heard her here including the Judges
Of Court aud many Of our most prominent
citizens. Seldom have We attended amen
ter,ainmeut where every piece iu.the en-
tire programme was so heartily eheered as
on this occasion, ani coming 50 spontane'
ously from the audience, it will have III
creased value TO the young artistic, who
seems to have a brilliant future before her
We wish her great prosperity in her chcs-
en- vocation"
The Green M9XniaiR Freeman Of the
same date says:
"Miss Gregory's Readings at Village
Hall, last week. gave entire satisfaction
to the large and appreciatiye audience, and
She will be most cordially welcomed when
ever she again comes before our people
Her voice is one Of wonderful compass,
and she has it in complete subsection to
her will, and knows how to use it to ex-
press exactly the meaning aud spirit of
the authors she reads"
\ eriti, writing from North Montpel-
Ter, to the Argus 4. Patriot, says:
Miss Gregory's Readings, as well as
vocaizing, indicated what may be accom-
plishei under the instruction Of thorough
masters in a comparatively short time, By
industrious application. attended by nat
ura bias Of taste and favorable physical
Development, and it is in this young lady's
case rare coincidence, wherein Nature
seems to have been unusually protuse in
her choicer gifts.
"In the repetitions, by request, of some
Of the readings of the first evenings pro-
gramme, my attention was particularly
called to that of Macbeth, the selected
scenes being familiar, and by comparison
the renGerings appeared the result unmis-
takably Of systematic culture and training
to direct purpose. Every position, cy-
cry little gesture, infection, and pathos
Of the voice, were essentially Reproduced,
and it seemed that no substitutes could
have been introduced without marring the
symmetry OF the theme"
A writer from Barre, gave his opinion
Of Miss Gregory's REGULATIONS, III that
place, 10 the Christian Repository, in the
following language:
1.-THE reading Of The Bells and The
Raven, by E. A. Poe The Sleeping SEN
tiuel,' The Triumph Of Freedom aud
'Sheridan's Ride, together with three
scenes from Fazio, were finely rendered,
and called forth the hearty applause Of
the audience, and being SO evenly done,
one could not well ind an exception how
ever, a 5 specimens Of dramatic skill aud
power, we think Macbeth and Fazio were
the best. OF emotional aud patriotic
pieces, The Sleeping Sentinel and Bin
gen on the Rhine had prominence"
Ex-Lieut. Gov Sade. writing of Miss
Gregory's REGULATIONS in Middlebury, for
the Rutland Herald, says;
"She to my mind excels in recitation
any one | ever heard With voice mu-
steal and strong, of great compass, depth
aud power, Miss g. can control the larg-
est audience, and with an incomprehensi-
Bile, irresistible influence sw ay mind and
passion as grass is swayed by the mighty
blast. Her rendering of the Rising OF

to the days of glory and patriotism A
perfect gem was her recitation Of the
Sleeping Sentinel. | cannot do half jus.

her to fully appreciate her power. Her
manners are graceful and easy. Most
