Moscow Weekly Adsance tell the story ::
So much speculation had been INDUCED in
relative to the merits of A. J. Colborn, .r., as
a lecturer that the prospective success of his
lecture on 1.-The Star of Bethlehem" was
the axis on which the most of Moscow NOV
ed during the three or four days preceding
the eventful evening. In commenting on
the assemblage it is only necessary to remark
that Mr.. Coborn was favored with the largest
and most intelligent audience that has ever
greeted any lecturer in Moscow. That MANY
of them went with a determination to be dis
appointed, no matter what they heard, there
isno doubt, and it is one of the most gratifying
acknowledgements of Mr.. Colborn's wonderful
abilities that these people capitulated before
he had finished his opening remarks. Mr..
Colborns style is easy and attractive He
commands your attention and interest the
moment he opens his discourse and the read
mess of thought and elegance Of language
that is ever at his command, stamps him i'm
mediately as an orator of great force and
ability.
At the close of the lecture the ladies Of the
society of Cheerful Workers presented Mr.
coiborn with an elegant basket of cut flowers
1t affords the JOURNAL great pleas
ure to record incidents of this char
aeter.
