The Concert.

Tuesday evening, the time fixed
for the concert in aid of the Gordon
Light Infantry, was most disa-
grecablc one. The day had been in
tensely cold, with q slight fall of
snow, and though the clouds clear
cd away ut ono timo, yet they soon
gathered again, and by seven
o'clock the evening was almost as
unpleasant as it could be. At all
events it was q most unpropitious
one for the coming entertainment
Notwithstanding this, good au~
dlence assembled at the Thespian
Hall, to hear the really excellent
music that WAS given.
The concert opened with "Gvor
of Thee Polka" by the full string
band-two violins, cornot, piccolo,
bass and piano. Their music was
really excellent, the instruments
being in perfect tune, tho time per-
feet and tho execution accurate and
tasteful. Tho band afterwards
played the Gel Dorado Waltz"
which is fine piece of music, and
which they rendered oven better
than the polka. Next followed
Glove and War;" quartette-
soprano, alto, tenor and basso. It
was finely sung, as wero afterwards
the quartettos moonlight on the
Lake" and "Tell mo, ye Winged
Winds"--the last-named being par
ticularly sweet. The tenor solo
from Lucia di Lammermoor was
next rendered by Mr. Levi. This
gentleman has an unusually fine
voice, and to natural talent he has
added a high degree of culture.
