Amusementa.

The Schubert Quartette Club of
burlington, composed OF w. +. Ford,
LIST tenor; III. A. Baker, 2nd tenor I;
{. G.. Church, LIST bass; and G.. ID.
Sherman, 2nd bass, gave one of their
entertainments at the Town Hall on
Thursday evening last. Unlike many
travelling troupes, the Schuberts give
really merritorious entertainment,
worthy the patronage of all lovers of
music, and would receive a better house
on the second appearance, a reverse of
the usual order. Mr.. Ford in
the humorous song Roomatiz" and
Mr.. Sherman in his cornet solos were
well received. BUT the balance of
interest and praise is attached to Mr..
Baker, whose humorous songs and
performances upon the flute and picco-
10 were really fine and well worth the
price of admission.
According to announcement the
"Thespians" appeared at the Town
Hall on Friday evening in the three
act drama, Enlisted for the War;"
doing themselves credit and gratifying
their friends beyond expectation.
Music was acceptably furnished by an
orchestra of resident musicians, making
it strictly an entertainment of home
talent. Criticism would, perhaps,
under the circumstances, be out of
place, so we will venture none. Miss
Joslyn, in the character of Gayle Gift
ford, showed that true love is
faithful to the end, though strong
ly doubted by foster mothers /;
while Emma Ferguson, as Mrs. True
worth, and Carrie Mower, her daugh-
ter, creditably sustained the parts of
mother and sister. Frank Town in
the character of soldier and lover and
Alfred Young as Wilder Rowell, intri-
guer, brought out the fact that honor
is The best policy in love as
well as war. w. B. Craven, as
jerks, the auctioneer, and Ed
ward LaPage, the "mere boy"
showed how that even postmasters may
become corrupt, while the order for
"Toes OUT may change possessors.
Harold Hyde looked not unlike the
Great Dictator and his inevitable cigar
for which may Chas. Kramer's aver
sion never be less. n. G. Wood,
as Gimp, the inimitable, was equally at
home whether in the character of farm
er boy, home guard, or special messen-
ger of the loved ones at home. Let
the colored troops take the front rank.
Prof Cecil, claiming to expose Spir-
itualism, gave one his entertainments
at the Town Hall on Monday evening.
Many things, mysterious to the unin-
itiated, were performed. But to say
that his entertainment is successful
expose of Spiritualism would, perhaps,
be rather premature. His exhibition
here was an advertisement Of his APP
pearing at Morrisville, where, crooked
ways are to be made straight,
and the most skeptical brought to
belief that Spiritualism is "a delusion
and snare" Our idea of an expose
was not realized. Who believed in
Spiritualsm, believe so still and who
disbelieved, disbelieve still, notwith-
standing Prof. Cecils appearance
among us. Ifyou would be convinced
go to Morrisville tonight.

NannoF'a Infaaf.

The Canadian weather guesser is not
willing, il seems, TO take the back scat
to which he invited himself; but tries
his hand once more at prophecy-thus :
April, sketch as entering cold and
stormy, with snow up TO the fourth or
fifth day, after which cold rains may con-
tinue to about the 10th, the Sd and 4th
days being probably the most wintry.
Next, l fOresee a cold term ending in a
heavy snowfall on the 18th, 10th aud 18th
days of March; and 10th and 18th to be
the days of snowfall. This storm period
will in all probability reach both Boston
and New York, but should cold rains re-
place snow in these last-named cities
shall not be surprised. The third indica-
ton | have brings in the 9TH, 9th. and 9TH
days of March for both cold weather and
snow; the 18th for snow again, aud the
18th and 10th for cold. Snow-falls are
also likely to occur on the LIST or I'd, 2lst
and 22d, and the 9th, one of these latter
dates given general and heavy fall. Be
tween the dates thus given for cold and
snOw-falls, the weather, of course, may be
expected to be mild and spring-like, con-
sequently slush will abound. The storm
lest part of March is almost certain to oc-
cur after the 18th of the month, and my
American friends must excuse me If
again include a moderate and reasonable
portion Of their territories in this last pre-
dictiOn. HENRY G. VENNoR.
LIST March, 1880.
The weather-seer evidently does not
mean to slip up this time. He has SC
arranged his prophecy that if snow
storm occurs anywhere in Canada oil
the United States, any time in March, be
can call it a fulfllment. We fear that
Vennor is a conscious fraud.

brothers of johnson were there and
afforded excellent music. OF the 9TH

to call the best, but we must say that
the essay read by lady from Wa
terville was the finest picture of
goodness and excellence we have
heard in long time. The recitations
were all good and well committed and
we'll recited. Some resolutions were
passed by the Union to keep the time
