TEMPERANCE MEETING LAST NIGHT.-
C. w. Dennison, formerly Of the Wash
ington Cd. c. Star, delivered a lecture
in Good Templars' Hall, last night, on
the suject Of temperance, to very large
audience. Robert Ford, Esq, was
called to preside. Mr.. Dennison made
an excellent speech. He urged the
people to vote for no man for President
who used liquor as beverage. This
was taken BY a Republican gentleman
present as a lick at Grant, and he pro-
posed TO "hurl back the speakers at
tack" lie said that those cities that
had the most stringent temperance laws
and the most temperance societies had
the most drunkards. 1t wasn't every
body that preached temperance that
practiced it. Here somebody tossed in
an Amen" to the delight Of the audi.
ence.1 The DEPRESSION caused a great
deal of fun, and during it, the question
OF woman's suffrage was introduced
and voted down by large majority.
The Speaker took the interruption
very pleasantly, and thanking the
Republican gentlemen for his remarks,
finished his speech to the satisfaction
of his audience.
Mr.. Dennison is an easy, pleasant
speaker, is thoroughly couversant with
bis subject and is earnest in his efforts

The CONCERT To-NIGHT.-To-nig ht
our citizens are to have an opportunity
of hearing Mrs. Charles Moulton.
That they will be delighted with her we
have no doubt. 1t cannot well be
otherwise. Even the accomplished and
hard-to-please critic OF the Boston
.AdvertiSer was forced to say OF Mrs.
Moulton "Her voice-a genuine mezzo-
soprano-though not distinguished by
volume or strength, and though not
absolutely devoid Of harsh tones in its
middle register, is very remarkable and
very lovely. It's purity in the higher
notes is wonderful; and in its quality
Of limpid yet resonant sweetness it
stands second to none which we have
heard 1t possesses, too, a strange and
fascinating delicacy which is indescrib-
able in itself, but which comes to the
sense OF hearing in somewhat the same
way that Correggio's coloring affects
the sight. Add to these most admir-.
able characteristics an almost fruitless
huency and freedom OF tone, and we
have a voice which may well have
excited the admiration OF Rossini. Mrs
Moulton's vocalization, also, is worthy
OF her exquisite organ. In its methods
it shows the most careful and thorough
training; in its results it exhibits CON-
plete mastery of all the difficult details
OF one of the most difficult OF the arts y

LECTURE OF DR.. MARsHALr..-A
gentleman who returned few days
since from the East speaks in the most
eulogistic terms Of this gentleman as a
lecturer. There seems, he tells US, to
he but one opinion in regard to his
qualifications in this department OF
literature; that he is rarely equalled,
very seldom, if ever, surpassed. With
ready command of language, the doctor
unites a very cultivated taste and a
great fund OF humor. He lectures for
the benefit OF the library of the Catholic
Institute, and we think the purpose as
we'll as the abilities OF the lecturer, call
for very crowded house on Wednesday
