<')iwilimtnt to Mr. M-On Wednesday
eitniirg foe walls Ilf the Tremunt 1 heatre were
_i .tilth aii arrav of beauty, elegance and
Lhioo, such as it has never before fallen to our |
Jot on any occasion to witness, am! if the Imuse i
v.a5 not ns crowded in every part as we antici
„,t,d and could have wished, still it was a very ,
brriiant affur. The performances of the eve-,
I (Uf,r, without a single exception, went oft with;
uncommon spirit and eclat, and were received ;
with marked approbation. Tne part of 1 herese, •
bv Miss Hock, in an especial manner is worthy
of commendation. It was indeed a beautiful ,
uerlormance. and the audience may well ascribe
,i very considerable proportion ot their evening's j
^ratification to the voluntary exertions ot this
•cmitr lady. Where all, however, deserved so
well,9and' le-t these teroaiks should appear in
»ome small degree invidious, we may state that
the peculiar circumstances ot the case in this in
stance. as we think, completely justify it. I’ne
occasional address by Park Benjamin, Esq is a
production ot much merit, and the allusion to
!n rue* in the past life of Mr. Payne very happi
iv conceived. As might be expected of Mrs.
b.rrett, it was delivered with great feeling, pro
priety and effect.
After the address, .Mr. Payne being called
fir with great enthusiasm from all parts of the i
h»use at length appeared; and though somewhat
agitated, as may well be supposed, addressed die
fiditnce tor the space of ten minutes m a very ap
propriate and felicitous manner. E*en after an
aOseuce of twetitv vexrs, the sound of his well
remembered voice was familiar to our ears, and
although the ** childish treb e*’ has given place
to a more manly tone, it is suit as muscial as ev
er. He likewise alluded, and with very thrill- ,
ing effect, to the scenes of his early life,and with
a propriety and elegance of dn lion for which he
has ever been ronspirumis, thanked Ins kind
friends for this distinguished mark of llieir es
teem and approbation. We si>ail for the present I
forbear any further notice, in the hope of being
enabled be/oie Im.g to give it entire for the gia- (
(dilation of our readers—Uoato'i (iaz.

was made by tite ar/iv/t. Smith Co per. i

wooden 'hovels, &,i. from Change county, which

his venture. While waiting on hoard the boat

Substitute for a Song.— Several years since,
,9 some gentlemen were journeying towards Nia
gara, the fund of stories and anecdotes, treasured
m their memories, had become exhausted, when
a desperate effort was made to raise a laugh at
the expense of Major J- One of the gentlemen
whispered to his neighbor, that the Major could
sing many favorite hunting songs, although rather
averse to it; that he would require much urging,
and probably deny that he could sing any songs.
The Major was forthwith invited to sing a song,
»nd immediately, as was expected, asservated his
inability to comply. “I told you so,” said the
wax; ”1 knew he would say so.” The Major
persisted, but said he would give them a substi
lute for a song, by relating his musical experi
ence. and if they insisted upon it, perhaps he
would sing afterwards. He began:
When 1 was a boy, ray father determined, one
Sunday, to send me to a singing school. Never
having suns much, I thought I would try a little
before I went. So tip I went into the garret
chamber, and after locking the door, went to sing
ing as loud as 1 could bawl, and as musically as
I was able. After 1 had been at it some time, up
come father. ‘Sam,’ sys he, what are you doing
up there, making such a noise on Sunday?’ No
thing, sir, said l. When he was gone, I went
an singing again. Presently, up caine the old
gentleman again, ‘Sam, you blockhead you,
what are you doing there, Sunday, 1 tell you,
making such a noise?’ ‘Nothing,* sir’ ‘Yes
yrou are, v»u blockhead, I’ve heaid you sawing
boards this half hour.’ » Gentlemen,’ conclud
'd the Major, «I have had no occasion to sing
my since.*—Bunker Hill Aurora

numbers of the re-publication of Blackwood's Msga

view—all lor the small mm « f srven dollar*
The above works, wiiich are now re published, arc
of eslabli bed character for the ability and interest with
which tney are conducted. Blackwood is well known
as the ablest and moat interesting of the foreign perio
dicals. I he Metrnpolittn is a new periodical, edited
by Thomas Campbell, (recently editor of the n, w
Monthly) and 1 h<>nias Moore, assisted by Harrison,
(author of Diary of a Physician) Mrs Ifemans, Mrs.
Norton, and other writers of high reputation. 1 he
Foreign Q isrterly Review is devoted principally to
Continental I.denture, and is conducted with great ta
lent, It treats of the literature and institutions of this
country with impartiality, and oflen in terms of high
and deserved commendation Itenjots at pre-cut a
higher reputation than either of th, Knglish or Scot
tish Reviews The expensiveness of th- origins! pub
lications prevents any extensive circulation of them in
this country—the separate cost of the cheapest being
fifty per cent, above that of the whole of Ihe re-pu'di
cation, and the cost of the three not lest than 35 del
lars, five times the cost of the re print
No intermixture of the works will be permitted to
occur, but all the articles of each number will be prin
