Soirees.

On Saturday night the regular monthly
soiree of the Augusta Female Seminary,
took place. The vocal music given by
MISS Mary D. Crawford's pupils was Of
excellence worthy of remark and the sing
ing of Miss NJ Antrim could not be too
highly praised. In solo ''Come, my bark
is moving" and duet with Miss Fletcher
she established high claim to the consid-
Grafton awarded a true artist. The PRAYER
by Rossini scng by Misses J. Baird B.
Hopkins, A. Junkin and J. Fletcher, was
most excellently done. Among the reeita-
tions ''Tne Polish Boy given by Miss II.
Kittrell, exhibited true dramatic fire as we'll
as ease Of delivery, and French recita-
ton by Miss Nellie Tate was an exhibit
ton of perfect elocution, if so tame a name
can be given delicious piece of acting.
The instrumental music by scholars of
Prof. Hamer was very good and included
an overture OF Mozart by Misses S. Par
colt, S. Millar, A. Keitt and f. Rock. and
polacca Of Weber by Miss NJ. Allen.
which were especially worthy of common
dalton.
The auditorium Of Mozart Institute was
well filled, Tuesday night, to listen to the
Christmas soiree given by the musical
scholars of the Virginia Female Institute
| The entertainment was both vocal and in
strumental, and in the former was the
Ave Maria, ''and finale from Mendelsson's
unfinished opera of ''Lorely," in which the
all was sung by Miss May Simon, in a So
prano voice OF great power, and the chorus
was excellently rendered by score of
young ladies. The duet, ''See tie pale
moon" THAI which nothing can be pref
tier, was nicely sung by Miss Lily Hoff-
| man and Miss Simon. In the instrument.
al music there was some nc ably good play

a letter from Rev. Mr.. Chester Of n. c.,
who visited this congregation several
weeks ago, in which he states that lie is
compelled to decline the call extended him
as q stated supply for six months. MI G..
saws that on laying the matter before his
congregation at Cortenea Grove, his re-
moyal met with such decided opposition,
they declaring they would resist it to the
end, that he decided it was best to drop
the matter. The second church congre
CATION has engaged temporarily the servi-
ces Of Rev. W. 7. Richardson, of the "A.
F. Seminary, who has consented to give
them one service on Sabbath and such i'm
tied pastoral attention as he may have it
in his power to offer, provided no effort is
spared to secure a regular pastor as soon
as practicable.
AT the Methodist church last Sunday
sixteen persons, who professed conversion
during the revival, were admitted to mem

Rev. Dr.. John S. Martin in a letter to the
Richmond ''Christian Advocate,' say S for
ty pupils Of tire Wesleyan Female Institute
had professed conversion and number Of
the Sunday school scholars, and adds:
The heart of the Church is stirred. Her
cry is 'tfor more love for Jesus-more con-
quests Of souls TO His praise" Convic-
lions of the Spirit have reached many in
the city. Infidelity has received rehuke
in the open and powerful conversion of its
former subjects, The changes in many
from conscious guilt to the joys of pardon

congregation, that daily take place-con-
strain us to praise the L0rd.s'
Crowds have filed cur church. and still
they gather: yet the penitents make their
way Through the press" yea, from the
packed galleries, the most difficult part Of
a church from which sinners can be drawn,
they have come forward for the prayers OF
the church. Thankful for many CONVEX
ted, we are yet looking for more. Pray for
