the proposed series of concerts by the Choral
Cnlon, is meeting with a hearty response from
nearly every one whose attention is called to the

sufficient patronage. OF the nature of the con-
certs we are not fully informed, but know that
the first will consist of the "Woman of Sa-

circulation by members of the society," and may
also be found at the music stores.
