urday night at the Female College by the

most enjoyable one, as was proved by the
good attention and the hearty applause
given Mr.. Perry. Mr.. Perry gave brief
sketch of the composer and the causes in.
ducing the production before the playing
of each selection, and by this the pro-
gramme was made more attractive.
