The rendition of many of the smaller girls greatly surprised the audience, and showed that although this was their first attempt they possess ability and self-possession beyond their years. All know the inimitable style and delivery of Charley Finch, and his first selection so captured the audience that lie was encored loudly and rendered a second piece. Charley is.

a born linguist. The singing which followed Mr. Finch's recitations was highly appreciated. Our Methodist friends are to be congratulated upon affording such a delightful entertainment, and we feel sure our people will be glad to have another such an occasion in the near future. DM.
