in that direction, picked a flaw in the
motion and thus escaped
The question in discussion was: Re
solved, That the barbarous man is hap
pier than the civilized man. 1t was de-
cided in favor of the affirmative.
The Concert.-1t is to be regretted that
the Aamold concert company had not an
audience in some degree commensurate
with the merits of the entertainment.
1t is not exaggerated praise of this ex-
cellent company to say that they gaveb
far the best and most artistic concert
ever heard in Sank Centre Mr.. Aamold
is thorough master of the violin, and
if his rendition of the solos given were
not perfect, it would require a trained
ear to detect any defects. Of Miss Yaw,
the Herald, not having received a must
cal education, docs not feel qualified
to do even slight justice to her merits.
Judging from the sentiments of musicians
who heard her. She is pronounced a
wonder, her compass is marvellous and
the notes in the upper register coming as
pure, clear and sweet as from the throat
of a bird, and particularly so in the echo
song AS for power sweetness and clear
ness she must compare with the first So
pranos and when age shall have fully
strengthened and matured her voice she
will be one Of the very few best singers.
Chas. Rodenkirchen, the cornetist, was
pronounced by those best qualified to
judge, exceedingly fine in his execution.
He has the faculty of getting some very
powerful as we'll as very sweet music
from his instrument.
Miss Beal is reader of far more than
average ability. Her selections were
rather infelicitous but such as they were
they were we'll rendered..
The audience, though small, did not
lack in appreciation, and nearly every
member was encored, and the responses
from the company were seemingly as
cheerlully given as though the house had
been packed.
1t was All enjoyable entertainment
from beginning to end, and should the
company feel justified in making the
experiment of re-visiting Sank Centre, it
may rest assured of that liberal and
profitable patronage which it so earnest
ly deserves.

cures by cleansing and healing. Price
