event OF tho season was tho Cantnta Of Father
AT Cummins' hall last night, and Sherman Is
prouder Of her musical talent this morning

while Mr.. Taylor ~ the King was fully up
10 the expectations Of his friends, Mr.
NAPLES M Mordecai did oxcellenily, but tho
feature of the entertainment WIS Miss Dixie
Crooks. Beautiful In face and figure, she
was doubly so In the rich costume she wore,
and her pure, sweet soprano voice was never
better while her acting wus grace itself IL

great singers of tho country, md We speak
whereof we know when va say That this
young lady, by perseverance, may one day
take good rank among them. Tho choruses
were very good, though hardly up
10 expectation. Mr.. Oberndortcr
delighted tho audience aud won
much applause for IN eScellently rem
dortd solo. Taking into consideration the
Gct That the performers were NIL amuteuls,
ana were much hnmpered by lack Of stage
conycnleuce', we must say thut the concert
was splendid success. ----The newly elected

she is regular full bloodei tartar, and
when she rolls up her sleeves and expecto-

of the City bank, will lead Miss Mamie
Taylor to the altar, and our best people arc
looking forward to the event with much
pleasant anticipation. Both of the young
people are well known in the city, and move
IN our best society, while their amiability
and many good qualities have endeared them
