NUIsANcEs.-Fhere are some people
In tho world so unconscious of pro-
priety, so utterly o5;use and stupid, a.
to render theirpresence \ terror to
those whose misfortune 1t Is to be
placed In proximity with them. a
friend Of ours who attended the concert
Of blind Tom" last evening. says
that the whispering Of two elderly
ladies in the rear OF the sea he occu-
pied was so loud and constant as to en-
tirely take away all pleasure In the
performance. They seemed to take no
interest In the music. but had evidently
seized the occasion tor q mutual eX-
change Of condolences. In the most
beautiful parts of the Oratorio OF Mo-
ses In Egypt,and Of n OF Gottschalk's
famous compositions, they buzzed so
necessarily and loudly as to almost
entirely over whelm the music from the
instrument. Our Informant says It
could be compared to nothing less than
the clatter of - WOODEN mill. Next to
a saualling cherub, whispers are the
great bores of operate entertainments.
We hope this will call the attention Of
whisperers to the fact TINT some per-
son. attend thea,erS for other purposes
than conversation, and that they Will
act accordingly.
