On Monday evening, the concert given
by Mylo r. Benedict, at the Baptist church
Was largely attended, and much admira-

yet while enjoying his unusual talent, and
manly appearance, fears were entertained
that his precocious head, and face, COM
bined with his nervous temperament, might
overbalance his physical strength, at the
immature age of eleven years. Natural tai
ent and genius is so rare, and in such in
stances physical endurance, should be thor
oughly considered, that they may live to
benefit the race. There are men enough,
and we must cultivate the man the world
so much needs. Master Mylo at the age of
seven, composed the bird song, one of his
most attractive pieces. Also the thunder
storm and the piece in imitation of the hand
organ. Home sweet home and variations
was fine indeed After the concert col

to assist the boy in getting piano.
