The coming production of the pretty
n play based on the life Of Irelands low
" ed poet, Tom Moore, and the introduce
ton Of many of his most popular songs
by the talented young singing come
Il dian, Andrew Mack, brings to mind a
memoir Of Moore's in which he de-
/ scribes how his melodies should be
sung. 1T has always been subject
.~sf--some modification to me that my
songs as they are set give such very
Imperfect notion of the manner in
which I wish them to be performed,
and that most of that popularity of
character which believe they possess,
las ! sing them myself, is lost in the
process they must undergo for publica-
tion. But the truth is that, not being
sufficiently practised in the rules of
composition to rely upon the accuracy
of my own harmonic arrangements 1
am obliged to submit my rude sketches
to the eye of a professor before they
can encounter the criticism of the mu-
steal world, and as it too frequently
happens that they are indebted for
their originality to the violation of
some established law, the hand that
corrects their errors Is almost sure to
destroy their character, and the few
little flowers they boast are pulled
away with the weeds. In singing them
myself, however. l pay no such defer
ence to criticism, but usually give
both air and harmony according to my
own first conception of them, with all
their original faults, but at the same
time all their original freshness There
Is but one instruction | should venture

ing Justice to the character Of these
as possible to rythm, or time in sing
ing them, the time indeed should al
ways be made to wait upon the feeling,
but particularly in this style of must
cal recitation, where the words ought
ito be as nearly spoken as is consistent
with the swell and sweetness of into
nation, and where strict and mechan-
sical observance Of time completely de-
sstroys all those pauses, lngerings, and
abruptness which the expression of
passion and tenderness requires" Mr..
Mack will sing in the play TON
Moore" the following selections of the
popular author, "Evelyn's Bower"
"Love's Young Dream 1.-THE Last
Rose of Summer" and believe Me if

dition of these famous ballads is thor
loughly in keeping with the views ex-
pressed above by the immortal Moore.
