From the stale of the weather for the past
few days-the attempts made by the trees and
bushes to throw out green leaves-it was EVIL
dent that Spring had come" and also come'
in advance of the regular time. Zone swallow
does not make summer" and no one expects
much of Spring until after the equinox, which
is due on the 2lst inst. Our farmers, however
are jUbilant ovei the fortunate change, which
enables them to begin their long delay ed spring
work.
The failure of the ice crop, we fear, will be

our farmers have succeeded in securing a very
small supply.

SOiree.

The most brilliant soiree of the season was
given on last Friday night at the Wesleyan
Female Institute, under the direction of Prof
| Ide.
The programme was arranged with all the
good taste and fitness for which the Professor
is so celebrated. He possesses, IN an unusual
drgree, the faculty of pleasing the popular
| fancy, and of adapting his selections to the
taste If the music-lovng public, while satisfy
| ing the demands of the severely critical The
hall was filled to its utmost capacity by Sc
lpct and cultivated audience who manifested
their delight in the most unqualified manner
| The grand overture, from Rossini's Semira-
mis-, was finely rendered as quartete by
Misses Sneed Powars, Howard and Eley
This was followed by another brilliant quar-
teite and then one of Lablzky's enhancing
waltzes as played by Misses Moss, Ehrman
Brown and Mrs E. r. Williams. This, with
the delightful accompaniment of Prof. Ide's
violin, was the instrumental gem of the even
ing.
A Swedish song, "Spring and Autumn" was
beautifully sung by Miss Florence Stuart
Astronomy and other onomies" was capital
burlesque upon the ultra classic demands OF
the day in the matter OF a young lady's educar
ton. Several fine instrumental concertos were
given. and then II lovely vocal duet, "Sdper
oorrsi Sc MANI" sung with exquisite taste and
expression by Misses Southgate and Dice
The voices of these two Young ladies accord
perfectly, one birdlike soprano and the other
rich contralto.
The second part Of the programme opened
with the overture from ia dame blanche
This was one of the finest selections, and was
beautifully rendered.
We have not space to particularize each per-
Torrance as we would like, and as they each
deserved, when SO many brilliant selections so
admirably given demand special notice. The
Coronation march, from Meyerbeer's "Proph-
et;" vocal trio, "Three Singing Birds" and
a beautiful waltz and galop were all anely
executed, and enjoyed by the audience.
Robert, tot que fame" was sung by Miss
Matte Southgate in voice of faultless melo-
dy, and with exquisite rendering of that most
beautiful and most difficult love song. Another
| more simple ballad was given by Miss Alice
Dice, Love may come tomorrow" and of the
two tavorite yocalists it is impossible to de-
termine which is most gifted or most admira-
| bly, trained, each satisfied so thoroughly the
| requirements of her difficult part. A grand
chorus, "Cant;am ornor," concluded the en-
tertainment, and the audience dispersed, CIV
ing as unanimous verdict that they had en-
joyed an evening of rare and unalloyed pleas
ure.
