Dr.. BRENAN's LEcTuRE.-Dr. Paul
NJ. Brenan's lecture last evening, at
Miners Union Hall, Gold Hill, on
"rhc Path of Life" was listened to
by a very intelligent and %appreciative
audience, who seemed delighted with
the man aud the subject. The Doctor
has an easy, attractive manner, which
captiyates and holds those who hear
him, while time seems to pass on the
wings Of thought. We would like the
Doctor better, however, If he showed
less egotisIn, which stands out very
prominent in his whole demeanor, and
seems to DO a native element Of his
countrymen. This trait of character
was very prominent in OConnell,
Grattan. Tom Moore and nearly every
Irishman Of prominence. We do not
mean to chide the Doctor on this point,
but merely suggest for his considera-
ton. The lecture, rs a whole, was
grand and Instructive. His advice to
mothers In relation to the bringing up
OF children Is worthy Of public atten-
tlon, and so are his Instructions re-
Rarding eating, drinking and sleeping.
Il Is something We should all profit by.
We admire the happy manner which
the Doctor has Of keeping his audience
In laughing humor, by his witty home
hits and pleasant anecdotes, while CIV
Ing instruction. His lecture this ven
ing will be "Love, Courtship aud Mar
rlsge, and the Cause of Divorce This
gives him a wide field for the display
OF his genius, and will no doubt draw
. crowded house. The Doctor cal be
consulted professionally In the dress
ing room OF the hall each day.
