Dedication al the New Organ.-The
Sacred Cuneer; given at tie st. Rose de hima's
Church, on Sabbath evening last, was music
al treat seldom enjoyed by our citizens. The
occasion was one to be remembered in the mu-
sical history Of the town. 1t was the dedication
of the new 50 600 Organ winch had been put in
to position in the church the week previous. by
GARRETT IIoUsE, Esq, Of Buffalo, New York.
Mr.. HoUsE has been engaged an ordinary. lfe-
time in the manufacture Of this class Of instru-
meats. and his skill has given an extensive no.
terioty to his organs. Some idea Of the amount
OF work on one of these instruments may be OBJ
tanned from the fact that il came boxed up to
this place in five thousand separate pieces,
There is nine hundred pipes, ranging from two
inches in length to nine feet, with tweuty-fnur
tips. Il was unboxed, put up and tuned in lit
tie less than week.
Father GREIss is a skilled musician, and his
selection of programme for the occasion, and
cal and instrumental performers from Toledo
was creditable alike to good taste and Judgment
The nudieace was large, although the church
wss not quite full.
