The next piece on the programme
was a emit/ by Mies J. E. lrouside's,
wlliolt was rendered in splendid style,'
and from the suo,ro she received Was
a enil'icient guarantee to that effect,
Bev. Mr. Shelton tires gave an instru
lneutal on the organ, the like of
which is seldom hoard. The fourth
ou the sheet was a chorus by 24 child
ren -•-from 5 to 14 yearn respectively
—all of whom were trained by the
teacher, and from the manner in
which it was rendered, one would be-
lieve that their teacher mast have
epared no pains in prepariug the little
band for tae occasion, and following
this was another piece by Mies J. E.
Ironsides. She more than sustained
her past reputation as a singer,ne this
selection was rendered in such a style
as to lead the audience to still more
believe that she had a charming voice
one in fact, which is seldom heard.
The sixth was a reading (from Long -
•fellow) by Be',. Mr: Sbeltou, which he
gave in a maaterly style. An iustru-
mental on the organ was then given
by Miss Fannie rollis to the satiefan
tion of the entire audience. A read.
iug then followed by Miss R. Robin-
son, it being given in good style. The
nineth on the programme was a song
by Miss J. E. Ironsides, which was
rendered in a style equal to her other
selections,lf not more charming. Rev.
Mr. Carrier followed with a snored
song ; he has swell trained voice. By
this time the audience having listen-
ed to so mauy grand songs, readinge,
&c„ felt quite satisfied, and in crder
to add more to the enjoyment, Miss
Ebinehart oxine forth and gave a sen
timental song which fairly aroused
them to their feel. After which an
inatrumental was given by Miss Fan-
nie Follia. A chorus by the children
was tendered the assembly aud to
conclude the affair Mies Mosae eu re•
cited an exception illy fine 1 renoh
piece. The National Anthem was
then sung,after which they all depart-

pleased with the entertainment. The
