double stringing, and double shift, with
out which no one can hope to WIN ap-
plause in the modern concert-room; but

THE FAn1Nr CONCERT.
The complimentary concert rendered to Sig
nor Farini BY his pupils took place Last evening
at Central Hall, and was attended by an audi
ence, small but enthusiastic, select but appre-

sto", and Us occasions Of this kind are usually
attended BY the friends Of the beneficiary and
ms ee1es OF course they are pleased and
fnl bis. Being, therefore, . little So
ciable only, as it we're, the critic
should therefore share the cordial spirit Of the
occasion, and, overlooking the demerits the af-

Eyre" she reaches the highest point Of succesa
attainable in her peculiar branch Of the his
troinic art, partly because the character is one
calling for mora Of dignity and genuine lramat-

than are incident to mort Of her rlmpeTB0nahonS;
