It Is safe to say that 10 singer Of set
Of singers ever won such an ovation
in this city as did the Abbott troupe,
which closed with I'll Trovatore'' on
Saturday night to the largest audience
of the week, except Friday night.
The company came to us with a good
reputation, but as strangers. They
go away with thousands Of warm
hearts wishing them success and good
cheer, and what is better, more than
5000 more money than they had a
week ago. The performance of III
TrOvatore" on their closing night
gave eminent satisfaction, and in
many respects is pronounced a re-
markable one. Miss Abbott made a
splendid "Leonora," sending forth
passionate bursts of melody, and won
a triumph seldom accorded to the
most brilliant of song queens. She
united a voice that rings out as sweet
and clear as a bell to a graceful, easy
and an expressive manner, such as is
seldom seen combined. Being a con
scientious artist she trained herself
until neither flaw or defect of n
kind could be found in action or yo.
calism by the most critical, and her
flexible voice being under perfect con-
troll she carries all before her by her
superb acting and delightful singing.
The leading tenor, Mr.. Castle, per-
formed here under many disadvan-
tages, and on the closing night many
thought he would break down com
pletely, but he carried his score sue
cessfully, save the omission of a
charming Duet in the third act, and
he, with Miss Abbott, was called before
the curtain several times, amid ring.
ing cheers, and thunders of applause.
The entire company did splendidly,
Mrs. Seguin especially carrying Azu-
cena in a more pleasing way than n
who have attempted the part before
an audience here. The opera proved
a decided success, as all we're that the
company have rendered, and when
they return to us next year there will
be even more liberal patronage. 1t is
stated that the company is under con-
tract to remain together for two wears
to come.

Although at a season where flowers
are difficult to procure, the church was
beautifully and artistically decorated.
The memorial window just over the
altar, had suspended in its CEN

a spray Of fern, while above
it were gas jets representing a
burning star the altar cloth
being attractively trimmed with ferns,
moss and lilies.

forward and take a decided step in
the cause Of humanity and organize a
society for the prevention OF cruelty
to animals2 The inhuman treatment
of mules writhing under the lash of
their cruel drivers, as daily witnessed,
appears to me to be a crying sin.
Other cities have laws for the proven
ton of cruelty; here poor overladen
animals, that are s~training every
nerve to drag their loads over the un-
even streets, are unmercifully whipped.
| do not think | ever walk out with
out witnessing such a scene. Bycall-
ing attention TO this subject IN your
popular paper, it might induce some
kindly person who has the ability to
act ia the case to step forward and
help in this good cause.
Yours very respectfully,
LADY RESIDENT.
