The Mozart Musicale.

There was very full attendance last
night at the Mozart musicale. The
vocalist was Mrs Blanche StOne-Barton
of New York She executed difficult
soprano solo with great spirit Some Of
the attendants at the musicales have little
consideration for the ladies who sing.
They do not seem 10 appreciate how
taxing their efforts are, and are as unani-
nous in their demands for encores as
people are on Academy nights. Last
night after Mrs. Barton had gracefully
bowed twice, some Of them kept stamp
ing and humping and forcing her to
sing or else delay the musicale. The
audience, however, was the gamer,
as her encore song, little lullaby, was
very sweet The Forge in the Forest ~
was splendidly rendered by the full or
chestra The reporter left after this, but
there is no doubt but what the whole Of
the well-selected programme was well
executed.
1t might be here remarked that encores
are so promiscuously called for in these
days that very few performers feel at all
complimented-especially when they
know that much Of the noise is made by
boys and young men who only want to
kill time. The lovers Of music do not
insist on encores against the will and at
the expense of the feelings Of the singers

ST. PAUL'S CHURCH.
Changes at this Venerable Place of
Worship.

The following facts in reference to
proposed changes at st. PauIs are made
by authority:
At the request Of Rev. DR.. Mimi
gerode's family the yestry propose to
make the venerable and beloved pastor a
rector omeritus, or in other words re-
tire him from the active duties OF the
pastorate with a stated salary. But Dr.
MinnigerOde has not yet resigned, and
consequently no formal action has been
taken He is therefore still the rector of
the church.
Rev. w. L. Gravatt, who has been the
assistant rector of St Paurs church for
several years, resigns to accept the rec
torship of ST. Peters, Norfolk new
church not yet dedicated. He will enter
upon his new duties about the 1st of
February. Mr. Gravatt resigned about
six month ago, but the vestry asked him
to remain, and to show their appreciation
of his services increased his salary. The
call from Norfolk being an exceedingly
desirable one, the vestry concluded that
it would not be right for them to decline
to accept the resignation rendered at this
time

ALWAYS WITH YOU"
Remember the Orphans at the Christmas

The annual pound party of the st.
Joseph Orphan Asylum began yesterday
and will continue during the week. The
friends Of the orphans are cordially in
vited to visit ahe institution, which is
situated on the corner of Fourth and
Marshall streets. During the pound
party the work of the Orphans Indus
trial School will be on exhibition, con
sisting Of hand embroidery and fine
needle work of every description. These
specimens of their work will be shown
with pleasure to patrons and to those
who may visit the asylum.
The annual dinner for the boys of the
Male Orphan Asylum will be given this
year Wednesday, December 10Th Boxes
for contributions will be placed at the
offices of the TINES State, Dispatch, and
Wing and at the stores of Wingo, Elicit
& Crump, r. p Richardson & Co., Jud-
son Cunningham, William III. Tatum,
and at places TO be hereafter announced.
Any contribution of money or provisions
will be thankfully received and will be
forwarded. The Male Orphan Asylum
needs no word of commentator, nor
should it need a special appeal. There
are fifty orphan boys eagerly looking
forward to kindly remembrance from
those who are in comfortable circum-
stances 1t is safe to predict that they
will not look in vain, and that their or
phaned hearts will be cheered during the
Christmas week by many substantial
tokens
These are the only two institutions Of
which the TINES has been requested to
make special mention. OF course, in this
season of good will and peace all the asy-
lums will be looked after by their patrons
and a generous public. Let not one
without regard to class, condition, creed,
or color be forgotten

in fact "slOper.'
