ST. Peters Male School.-The annual exhibition
of this justly celebrated school took place at
the schoof-hall, on Marigny street, on Tues
day evening. The, many entertainments of
q similar NATURE far from satiatipg the
tastes of the 7inhabitants of the Third
District, it would seem were but greater
incentives. to make them patronize the .exer-
cises of literary institutions. Indeed, this
was evidenced by the very numerous audience
| assembled on the occasion Of which we write.
The programme was Of . most pleasing and
varied nature, the useful and ornamental being
satisfactorily blended. Master John Hackett,
who read an essay OF much profundity of
| thought and beauty of style-"The Great
West"-was followed by the pupils who sang
that affecting ballad, Do they Pray for me at
Homer "a Little Piece" by Master James
Coutro, elected many commendable remarks
with regard to his excellent delivery. "The
Grave of Father Marquette" and "A Patriot's
Last Speech were very effectively delivered
by Masters C. McCausland and Jas. Fitzgerald
A composition" How Ireland has preserved
her Faith and National Existence was the
fruit of the mental labors of Master Daniel
OConnell. "The Little Speaker" could not
have been more amusingly recited than was
done by Master John Fitzpatrick. After q
sweet chorus, "Come this way my Father, ,
Master John Sedgwick, of three and hall
years, entertained the audience with "What
I know" and judging from the numerous
branches mentioned BY him, we have no hest
tation in placing him alongside our future
: President, who has become so famous fo
"What know" etc. That pretty song, 81
Sweet Face at the Window" was worthy t.
! succeed The Land we Love and spartacu.
!. to the Gladiators )" the former by Master NJ
Fitzpatrick and the latter by jas. Fitzgerald
Master James Anderson struck sympatheti,
chord in the hearts of the audience by q yer,
, feeling recitation of "The Sailor Boys Story.
The entertainment was concluded by the pupil
= singing "Putting on Airs" We are informed
by ME-. Dryer, the courteous and efleien
: principal of the school, that he has been ad
vised by his physician to retire from the ardu
Gus duties of his profession. His retremen
will be o source of great sorrow to his man,
friends, to parents aud children, and to tn
educational institutions with which he ha
> been SO favorably connected for the last tel
years. We have no doubt there will be
