"A will be seen, better results in the
future are expected; but we must again
repeat, it was a most enjoyable evening
and the regret, universally expressed,
was that these soirees are too exclusive,
So we suggest that in future Mrs. Sheib
give such entertainments in a public
place and charge a moderate admission
price to cover expenses, 80 more persons
would enjoy a far better entertainment
than most travelling troupes give us. We
must not omit TO mention that the singing
OF the Orpheus Club was a surprise to Tic
hearers, and we congratulate Wheeling
on the organization OF a quartette, from
which 30 much may reasonably be ex.
pected, from this, their maiden effort.
We hope that other efforts from Mrs
Sheib and the Orpheus quartette may be
more pullicli given.

FINE DwELltHG.-Mr. Hall, Of or,
Hall & Co, Is about completing his new
house at the north end OF North Front
street. Mr.. Halls grounds extend from
the east side Ct North Frontstreet 10 the
river and comprise nearly or quite one
acre. The site is a most beautiful one.
The river view extends from che city
wharf far up above MARITIME ferry, com.
manding too, all that lovely Landscape
lying back OF that town. The grounds
east Of the house have an essy grade 10
the river bank and have been planted
with u few choice fruit trees; also rows OF
grape vines which are designed 10 form
an arbor. Grass has been Rown and the
ground raked over till III is as smooth as a
floor. The grounds in front OF the house
are faultIessly level and are ready Tor
manipulation by the skilled hand OF our
friend Bailey, or some other man. The
house inclusive of the Mansard has three
stories exclusive Of the basement, and
there are thirteen rooms in 1t. It's out.
side proportions and bay windows give il
the appearance OF being a roomy house
and yet II Ia only so in point Of numbers,
We do not profess to be an architect
and yet We must say that style OF arch.
itecEure prevails 10 come extent, which 10
our uneduCated eye sacrifices the living
arrangement offs house TO outside show.
In Nj. Halrs house the parlor and sitting
room and dining room are sacrificed 10 u
wide hall and stairway. The same may
be said oil the second story, where most OF
the roomsa are small and partake too much
Of state room style, all Of which is well
enough in a hotel where il is desired 10
accommodate the greatest number Of
people in the smallest space, and where
the object is profit, not the comforts Of a
home. The Mansard affords rooms OF
ample size, and It seems a pity that some
thing Of their proportions could not have
been more evenly distributed throughout
the house. Still the builder OF a house
Ia supposed to know what he wants, and
what suits him ought to satisfy others.
