A fair-sîzed autiience in the music hall on Friday niight last had the plea- sure of listening to the poot of the Hab- itant, Dr. Druinmond. Dr. Drumniond is a Canadian, is a medical practitioner, is a poet wbo iiiterprets the life and cbaracteristics of the French Canadian as no other bas ever loue. H1e has liv- ed and practiced amongst these people until hoelbas bectmme tbdroughly imbued with their sentiments, understands the i mode cf life, tîteir laxîguage, their relig- ion, anti bas grown even to look like a French Canadiaxi. The Dr. bas the happy faculty of being able to read bis own writîngs in an entertaining way. The au(iîence, therefore,-wbo heard the poot on Friday ex'ening, was treated to a glîmpse cf Fr-ench Canadian life and character which nmust have been a reviel- ation to thent. The broken English of the habitant, artictilate inii Dr. Druii- mon(i's ininmitable way, felI delightfullv upoxi the ear. The reader's selections included some cf lus best poonis, aîîong themo being IJohn-nv Corteaxi," IIThe Little Cure of Caluniiet,' "IlThe I3ells of St. Mcxc, "How the Dcvii was Outwitted' " ' Weil, May be,"" Little Bateese, besidesoth- ers,èharmiing and original. The pathos of souie cf theso poemisvas most 'affect- îiig. Sr-ome of thent portrayed the dc- vout nature uf tîte habitant, ot1hers bis sports, bis love for homio and home tics. Tfue ranîge covcred ltY the selections was wide enough tc give a general idea cf the liabitant ebaracter and also the ivunterful versati:ity oîf the puet. The audienee w-'ton- whit.h thorugh]y en- tered imîto svmnpathy 'ith tho reader,axxd cach secleetictu was grreeteti inost warinly.
