pathic physicians from becoming members OF the
American Public Health Association"
Cases OF clinical practice were reported by
Drs Arthur Of Vergennes, smith, Of Aadi-

The December term Of the Orange County court
came TO an end last Thursday, after an unusually
short and unimportant session, very large num-
Der Of cases were left upon the docket and itwoud
seem that the summer term must last some five or
six weeks to dispose Of the accumulated business.
The following additional divorces were granted

tolcrable severity--custody Of the child, Carrie
Bell Campbell, decreed TO petitioner, and petitioner

nusrOS PHILHARMONIC CLuB The concert
given by this club to those Of our citizens who
were so fortunate as to attend, was, the whole,
the best instrumental concert We remember To have
heard It was the first appearance Of this com
pany In this place, aud it had no previous reputa-
ton among our people. The Mendelssohn club
used to make annual visits to Montpelier with
great profit to its members, and with great pleas
ure IN our people, Come when they would they
commanded full house aud the most appreciatiye
audiences, No club has since taken its place.
But we have no doubt that il the members Of the
Philharmonic can maintain their organization, as
at present constituted or with equally good per
formers il will rival and In some respects, surpass
the old Mendelssohn. Their music Is every way
admirable. The superior excellence of each mem
her Of the club is very obvious. 1t is needless to
specify, when II is difficult To say which member
OF the club afforded Us the most satisfaction in his
solo or in his part. They are courteous gentle
men, as well as accomplished musicians. The
conductor Bernhard Listemann, rendered the
" Watches Dance with wonderful skill, and on
encore gave a portion Of the Carnival of Venice"
with equal beauty. Belz, with the French horn,
and Wener, with the flute and cthem were mas-
ters of their instruments and greatly pleased the
audience Miss Bryant Is a new singer here also.
She was listened To with great pleasure and re-
called by the audience after the song Non uer,
aud sang an exquisite ballad with fine effect Nc
higher praise can be given to her singing than 10
