forth such large audience was the regu-
lar weekly entertainment of the Grace
Musical Union. To say that those pres
ent were delighted with the programme
would be but faint expression of Ian
guage. The delight, and the applause OF
the audience was unbounded, and 1T was
almost an impossi bility to check their
enthusiasm, and at times it could not be
checked until those who had volunteered
their services, responded to three and
four encores. The management and ar
rangement were under the immediate
charge of DIR. Frantz, and Mrs. William
ii. Billany, who certainty deserve great
praise for the rich treat that those who
