fix it, iv the premier position among similar societies in tiie colonies. Wo do not make these remarks in any way in disparagement of the gentlemen whose management of the society has been attended with s uc h great success, but simply point out how, in our opinion, that success would become infinitely greater. The performance of last night was attended by a large and fashionable audience, who listened with marked attention throughout. The instru mentation j,was good if we may except the mistake made by the wind instruments coming in oxit of place in the introduc tion to the oratorio, and the unsteadiness of the striuged instruments in their introduction to the aria "Lord God of Abraham." The lirst chorus was well sung, instruments and voices paying great attention to the marks Jof expression, but the recitative by the chorus into which it leads, we thought, •was sung with too marked an attention to the tune. The duet and chorus which followed were rather vocal, the ladies' voices being hardly sufficiently strong. The re citative "Ye People, rend your hearts," .by the tenor, was scarcely sufficiently studied, but he amply made up for it by his really intelligent rendering of the air which followed. Mrs Mitchell we never heard to greater advantage than in the duet with Elijah if we may except what we thought a tame rendering of the words '.' Shall the dead arise and praise thee," but the portions requiring pathos and delicate vocalization were delivered with great taste and feeling. The gentleman who represented Elijah sus tained his part; in a manner seldom eqnalled by any amateur in this colony. In this gentleman the many beautiful bass solos had one of the best of interpreters. In nearly a dozen specialities this favourite vocalist ap peared, and in each instance received the approval of the audience, and |in some in stances elicited considerable emotion.- He not only displayed a thorough acquaintance with themany portions assigned him, but he also exhibited a nice appreciation of-the composer's conceptions.- This was par ticularly observable in " Give me Thy Son," " Call him louder,"' " Hear our cry," " Lord God God of Abraham," and " 0 Lord, Thou hast overthrown." The latter deeply impressed the audience. The chorus, •* Thanks be to God, " we have seldom heard to greater advantage. Every performer seemed to throw his heart and soul into it. The iustiumentation, difficult as it is, was well done, and we think this well deserves to be called the gem of the evening. The lady who sang the contralto solos sang with great feeling and perfect taste. Her enunciation was good, her voice clear and pure, but the general effect was marred by nervousness ; but when she at timrs got over this failing nothing was left to be desired. The second part was well selected, ■,and as well performed and appreciated. The over ture to Piter's was. accurately played, as was the soul-stirring "March to Berlin." In fact we felt an almost irresistible impulse to parade the concert room to its time, and were only restrained by a 3 ense of the impropriety of such a line of conduct. A song, by the > tenor, of the " Soldier's- Dream," with band accompaniment,§ was well rendered, and judging from the applause which followed, pleased the audience. The celebrated prayer from, " Moses in Egypt," and a madrigal closed the concert. We had neatly omitted a word of praise to the gentlemen who presided at, the drums. We will content ourselves by saying that we have often htard the drums well played,' but never better.1 "the concert was under the conductoiship of Mr Browne, whsi did hi«r cfotics with hi 3 accustomed skill.
