Concert at the Jesuits.

A Sacred Concert is to be given at the
Church of the Immaculate Conception next
Friday evening, the 10Th inst, under the direc-
ton of Prof. G. Cellignon. We have not seen
the programme, but have heard that some of
the most eminent vocalists of the opera will
sustain parts in it. Several pieces will be
given which our public have already heard
rendered by our best local talent, and no doubt
great curiosity will DO felt to compare their
performances with those of the eminent artists
who will assist on this occasion. Their names
will doubtless appear in the daily papers in
advance of the day.
The proceeds of the Concert are to be applied
towards liquidating the expense of the new
altar which has recently been erected in that
church. 1t is thought that the altar will be
unveiled to- day and dedicated to the sacred uses
for which it was intended. 1t is magnificent
work, O monument of religious art highly
creditsble to our city, and the energy which
called it into existence deserves every encour'
agement at the hands of its public.
The following is list of the gentlemen who
will act on committees on the occasion of the
Concert:

Rev. Father Maenbaut.

In our last issue We announced the death
of this eminent clergyman, expecting 10 oe
able, by this time, to give farther details
of the legacies so generously bequeathed
by him to charitable institutions in our
city. We must still postpone that now
ever, as the will is not yet made puohs.
Enough is known to show that Father
Maenhaut has consulted both charity ana
Justice in the distribution OF the goods
which the liberality of his numberless
friends had bestowed upon him. 1t seems
that nearly the whole Of his property Is
beaueathed to New Orleans charities.
Father Maenhaut had, no doubt, num-
beers of relations in poor circumstances
some of whom, we know, had been very
kind and attentive to him in his latter
days, but he leaves them comparatively
unnoticed and gives abundantly to the de-
crepit, the poor and the orphaned, whom
he had never seen. And it is New Orleans
that he selects as the place where that
charity must be dispensed. New Orleans
had given him the means which he possess
ed, and he thought justice required tnat
those means should not be diverted to an
other beneficiary.
| Rev. Father Maenhaut was greatly es'
teemed among those who knew him oese'
His great popularity was never to speak
unkindly of any one. He was Jealous
priest, always found where duty called him
whether at the sick bed, in the confessional
or elsewhere an excellent administrator f.
keeping his church in admirable condition
and discipline an edifying model of rigid
morality and modesty, and warm, con-
slant friend.
His benefcence comes now at a moment
when it is most needed. In former years
money vas abundant and charity foune
many patrons; now poverty rules ou'
community and our charitable institution
are most sorely pressed. Father Maenhaut'
savings come to their relief as the crop
? which Joseph saved in the years of plent!
q came to the relief of his brethren durln
the subsequent famine. We are sure tina
!. the prayers of the hundreds who shall shar
J, in his charity will ascend to heaven in hi
" behalf.

LADIES' FAIR FOR ST. VINcENT's HoME.-Thls
Fair. as our readers have been Informed, is to
omen in Grupewalds new Hall, on Saturday,
Jan nary 10th, the Hall having been engaged
some time ago. We trust that the members OF
the Society of st. Vincent de Paul and the
ladies will exert themselves to make this Fair
a success, as the support of ninety-four desti-
tute boys and the future existence OF the Home
will depend upon the result.
The expense for the support of the Institution
for October, November and December had to
be advanced by individual members of the
Society, the means of the Conferences having
been taxed to their utmost limits; they having,
in addition to the relief they afford the poor at
their own homes, adopted over forty destitute
boys from their several porishes, who are sup
ported by them in the Home But even with
this resource the income falls at least $3.50 per
month short Of the expenses, notwithstanding
the institution is conducted in the most
economical manner.
Although the times are bad, money scarce
and business dull, we trust to the charitable
community to come to the aid of the Society
and not allow these poor, unfortunate children
to be turned into the streets in mid-winter
The committee on the Fair are requested tc
meet the directors this Sunday evening al
| the Home.
