GEoRGETowN, ID. G., Mar 1.-Now that tho
divine Patti is gone with all her luminous
train, mindful of tho fact that greatness
brooks no rival near tho throne, we may dare
to justly crown them both, Patti and glorious
Schalohi, on the same pinnacle of equal eX-
celcnco, the triumphant queens of dramatic
song. Who that heard them will over forget
it? Like the morning stars they sang to-
gcther, bcqucathing TO us the rich legacy Of
the memory of that sumptuous outburst Of
immortal song.
Still ON the charmed air.
Son echoes like an organ rich and raro,
Sofas soul of melody
SIN Adclnas silver song
Floats DER the ontranced listening throng
Til Philomcrs sweet self We think we see.

the company 10 build any branch road,
