cert on the Plaza last evening, by the FRS

tended of any yet given, eyidercing the
popularity OF these concerts beyond all ques

cent and proper in ell respects, for the
representative people Of this community avail
Of them, and the thousands who promenade
the Pisza during the concerts who line the
walks and crowd the ways on J, /, Ninth
and Tenth streets, surrounding the Piszs.
together with the great number in car
riages sbanding along those streets, con-
clEsiYely proves that these entertainments
are to the liking OF the mass of the people
and are beneficial TO the community. Last
evening several lunch parties were observed
enjoying miniature pioRics beneath the trees
IF only the Plaza vas well lighted and fitted
mp with ssats aud q few tables, these concerts
would beconaa sill more popular, and afford
innocent racrsaaoa, rest aud enjoyment to
still more o. the people. Tbs fact that twice
each week thousands Of this people attend
these concerts IS Of the best evidence of the
eqRable climate Of Sacramento and the de-
lighGful evenings Of this locality. In many
places in Europe like free concerts are main
tanned by the iiberality OF citizens Of means
but il Is doubtful if IN any place other than
Sacramento, the climatic conditions are mora
happily adopted to such entertainments The
public.s pizited citizens who raised the fund to
maintain these concerts here this season
must feel greatly gratifed at their success,
and finding therein their compensation for
the effort, win be encouraged to labor for
their continuance until the rainy season sets
