last wed nesday evening under the auspices of the young people of the baptist church was very well attended considering the must inclement condition ol the weather mr b d warren occupied the chair and ful- filiad the duties of the office in a very ac ceptable manner the programme pre sented was an unusually interesting one and the concert proved to be one of the best in tbe amateur line that our citizens have had the pleasure of attending the instrumental solos by miss goodenow were much enjoyed by the audience and ahe was repeatedly encored the solos by miss tburza orr and duets by the misses orr were well rendered their voices blend ing in perfect harmony miss austins solos were also very creditably rendered and won hearty applause misses bessey and orr and messrs hall and bessey sang several quartettes in good style their sing- ing proving that they had hadcorttiderable practice together miss maggie kicklin gave a solo with good effect but we have heard her do better on former occasion the quartettes of missel kicklin and wor den and messrs matthews and jenner were well sung they woold however have been improved had the singers spent more time in rehearsal although we dont like to say so we moat in fairness to the singers admit that tha georgetown vocal ists were the favorite with the audience bnt w have so doubt it will be tkt verta when oar singors visit
