Concert.

Mrs. Addie Carter's concert last evening
was largely attended The programme
was long and varied. Mrs. Carter, in ex-
cellent voice and in her usually strong,
sympathetic style, sang Bright Star
Above" with flute obligato by j. L. Terry :;
a duet, The Disconsolate," with Mr.. San
born, tenor, and in a quartet, THE Spring
Song" with Mrs. Renfro and Misses Tiet-
iens and Andrews. Fred We'll played
clarionet solo with good taste and effect.
and j. Il. Terry was so happy in flute
solo as to secure an encore. William f.
Beardslee sang the bass solo, 1.-The Wan
derer," with feeling and in excellent voice.
Messrs. Sanborn, Buchanan, Auerbach
and Carroll gave the quartet. Ny Queen"
very acceptably. Miss Mamie Waterhouse
gave two Rotations, reading with a keen
sense of humor and great naturalhess
Mrs. James Seadler recited Trouble in
the Amen Corner" with fine effect and
good evolutionary taste. Messrs Gerrish,
Wright, Sanborn and Dennison were the
accompanies of the evening. The pro-
gramme was made notable by the debut in
concert of Miss Mary Tietiens, daughter of
Peter Tietjens, of this city, and niece to the
world-famous soprano, Nine. Tietiens The
young lady sang twice, giving Polo
holSSSi mum MlSuOn anu ave Maria,
and was encOred and responded. She has
strong voice, clear and musical on the
upper notes, and of broad register, but
metallic and faulty on the lower notes
matters that culture may correct. She has
confidence, and her voice is of good quail
ity. 1t is impossible to say that the lady
has musical future of promise before her,
but it is not to be inferred that she has not.
A young person, with voice of good quail
ity, coming of musical family, and with a
love for music has all on her side, if there
is coupled with it perseverance. AT least
the young lady, if never a notable singer,
has capacity to be much superior to the
ordinary.

a letter received from one of the faculty
OF the State University yesterday by the
Principal Of the Sacramento High School
compliments the school warmly. The
reference is to large number of written
exercises by pupils of the High School, not
relating to all their studies, but especially
to English. The examiner says the papers
submitted indicate at once enthusiasm, in
telligent labor, and are creditable to teach
ers and pupils, and while the criticism is
not intended as an exhibit of rhetorical or
analytical work, yet in sense they pre-
suppose both. Later in the school year the
classes Of the High School will be exam
med by a Commission of the University
faculty. From the foreshadowing referred
- 1t may be Inferred that the school will
stand very favorably with the examiners.
1t ought to stimulate the High School
pupils to renewed eXertions. and especially
to hard study in those branches where they
have most need of it, or feel weakness
