The daily phoenix. [volume] (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, 1872-05-08

given in Twins EaIl last night; for the
benefit Of Trinity Church Sunday School,
proved q grand success. The hall was
we'll filed, and es the tickets were put at
one dollar each, handsome sum must
have been realized.
The performance opened with an over
ture from '.Semiramide, on the piano,
by Miss Kate Crawford and Prof. Koep-
per. It was,pronounced by oonnoisseurs
as very difficult piece. and was admira-
bly, rendered and loudly epplauded.
Next followed fantasie from. La File
du Regiment, by Mr.. I. r. Orchard, on
the violin. accompanied by Prof. Kmp-
per on the piano. This, we believe. was
Mr.. Orchards first performance in pub
lie, and the rapturous and emphatic ap-
plause with which his mastery effort was
received must, doubtless, have been
highly gratifying to the talented young
artist
The song by the children thirty or
forty in number-was exceedingly sweet.
With their pretty spring dresses and
bright. merry faces, they formed beau
tiful picture on the stage, and were quite
feature Of the entertainment. The
iatenass of the hour prevents us from
giving more extended notice, or refer
ring in greater detail to the different
pieces and artists. Mr.. LyBrand. the
younger, was loudly encored, aud finally
prevailed upon to repeat "sThe Tempest
in the Heart" upon the cornet. Mr.
Charles F. Janney, in his rendering of
"Ma Normandie," on the violin, was
particularly pleasing, sho@w:SE = skill.
correctness, and masterly knowledge of
Intricate manipulation Of that most per-
feot instrument, that might be expected
only OF the most accomplished profes-
sionals.
The most general and uproarious ap-
plause. perhaps. though, greeted Mrs.
Taylor. The silvery tones OF her mag
nifcent voice svrelled forth the dulcet
notes Of "Ahl r'orse Lui." Conuois-
seurs and novices alike can appreciate
fine vocal music, and Mrs. Taylor was
loudly enoored.
The fremen's song, by Mr.. W. B.
Guliok. joined in the chorus by coterie
of young gentlemen and ladies, was we'll
received, and the performance OF the
Messrs. LyBrand and Messrs. Wells and
Sutphen, upon their silver instruments,
was pronounced very fine. After the
concert was over. the ladies OF Tri-
nifty Church served mp a quantity of
lemonade, ice cream and other such
palatable deicaoies. by which. doubtless,
considerable addition was made to the
receipts OF the evening.

SUPREME COURT, HAY "a. Detner-
idge us. r. E. Earle. Opinion by
Wright, A. J.
This was an action on promissory
note, dated April b. 1851, payable one
day after date. The case comes TO this
court on appeal, because Of the unjust,
erroneous and unwarranted charge of
the presiding Judge, which led the jury
to bring in verdict contrary to the law
and evidence. cannot see any reason
why solemn contract, with good and
sufficient consideration, should be inter
fered with, because it was made previous
to or during the progress OF the late re-
bellion, unless it was made in reference
to "Confederate States notes or their
equivalent" It is not claimed or at
tempted to be shown, that the note in
question was go made, therefore it was
the duty of the jury. according to the
law and evidence in this case. to bring
in verdict for the whole amount found
to be due.
