PORT HENRY. Port Henry, N. Y., July 21.—Saturday svening last saw assembled in the (Opera louse the largest audience a musical en- ertainment has attracted there in many ears. It was the debut of Miss Corinne i*lint, an event long anticipated by her iumerouB friends inrPort Henry and neigh- irin|g towns. The debutante was ably ssisted by Miss Fischer and Miss Fuller, •omjNew York, and by Mr. Tromblee.— was neiarly half past eight before the au- dience ^as seated and the early comers began to| evince impatience. They were, however soon arrested by the appearance Miss |\iller who opened the concert by piano-fbrte solo, by Schumann, entitled Aufschwung." The two solos in the liddle of the programme were very well a: the boldness and dash of the first Hungarian dance of Brahms, throwing n to a bright light the delicaey and play- ulness of the waltz, by Chopin, that fol- owed. Miss Fuller was recalled and gave an encore that verv characteristic piece Grieg, "Norwegian Bridal Procession 'assing By." The second number on the rogramme was filled by two songs, "Es tlinkij der Thau" and "Springtide." Miss "ischer, the possessor of a remarkably ich soprano voice, charmed the audience rith the delivery of these two and reap- leared, after hearty applause, tp sing a harming little song of Chopin.* Aloud urst of applause now announced the ap- earance of Miss Flint who gracefully ac- nowledged these demonstrations of de- ght. It is now four years since we have sard Miss Flint. She has reaped the full jneflt of these years spent in study at ituttgart under the supervision of Prof, tfngfcr.land has returned to UB a very ac- ompligWd artist. Every person at all fa- liliar With violin, understands the im- iense difficulties to be overcome in order render the simplest melody in a pleasing Lanner. It needs indeed an artists hand > guide the bow through a de Beriot Con- srto in a finished manner as did our de- ltante. Thefirstmovement was replete with delicate runs, thrills and arpeggios, interlaced and combined with bright mel- ody that fixed the attention of the sa- lience. The second movement, an Adagio, ras played with a depth, a warmth of seling that marked the true artist. This tovement was brought to an end with a >ng Cadenza, in which Miss Flint distin- guished herself by the delicacy and sweet- ness of her very high notes. The render- ing of the Hondo was remarkably brilliant and it was impossible for the audience to otherwise than completely carried away the taking rythm and melody, as well by the delightfully piquant rendering, tarticularly in the part where the Spicato lowing is very prominent. Miss Flint low- •ed her violin amid tremendous applause, id retired behind the scenes. Twice she before the footlights, but the au- tience was not to be satisfied without an. mcore; she accordingly complied and the >ow that a moment before produced bold, aud tones, whispered flow a qqaint, sweet 'Berceuse" which held" the audience spell- ound. Two short pieces—a Field-Singer Nocturne and a Moorish Lament, by Mon- asterio, were pliyed later on. The latter piece, a strange Weird composition, was beautifully executed and delighted her hearers. It ia now our great pleasure to apeak of Mr. Tromblee. Ittohardly nee- ©wary to enumerate the pleasant emotions experienced while listening to his render- Ing of Beethoven's wonderful song, "Ad- elaide." The residents of Port Henry are already acquainted with his beautiful ten- or voice and the praise we would give him would be a repetition of former criticisms. The encore which wasloudly called for was one of Abt's delicious little Bongs, "Good Night My Love." A duett for tenorand sop- rano entitled "Evening 8ong,» sung by Miss Fischer and Tromblee was rapturously ap- plauded and the concert finally brought to a close by Gounod's "Ave Maria," which was sung by Miss Fischer with great sweet- ness and fervor. The difficult violin obli- gate was rendered by Miss Flint and the piano accompaniment by Miss Fuller. The highest compliment the artiste can be paid is the fact that until the last sound had died away the audience remained motion- less; not one impatient auditor anxious to be the first to leave the hall, and from all parti of the house was heard the remark, "the! programme was much too short." The fadies, Miss Flint in particular, were the recipients of numerous and very beau- tiful flora] pieces. I OVER THE LAKE. FKSBISBCBGHV—Frank Germain, whil< repairing a barn for C. C.

SOME TRAITS OF THE VUK1INIAN. the whole tradition of the country unitet a a vast protest against hurry. If you meet your neighbor on the road on horse-back, though yon had met every day for a weekl he would loot' on you as a ourmudgeon did you not stop and " ohat a while." If. on o Bummer day, you stop at a roadside farm, house for a drink of water, you will bi fortunate, if the owner is a speaking ac- quaintance, to get avray within an hour, and considerable hardening will be required to resist the entreaty to "lite, Sir, "lite," that follows instantly on his greeting of rec- ognition. Rural prosperity, where the house stands upon the publio highway, is among this middling olau considered as having something speoial In that particular to reoommend it The middle-aged or el- derly proprietor of such an enviable location, though he has nowadays to make hia boyi work, will sit himself upon the poroh in his shirt-sleeves, with long pipe or the less pic turesquequid between his teeth, rocking himself to and fro in the worm Summex days. His eyes are bent always on the dusty red road that, beyond the nhade of the aca- ciaaandthe old-fashioned, straggling box trees which divide him from it, leads the people of his part of the oountytothe ooun- ty town. Riding along it at slow, ambling gaits, on Texan saddles with long, swinging stirrups, in big stmw hats and white linen jaoketo, the neighbors go by in ones and two* at long intervals. Bach is greeted by our venerable friend with a ahoat of entreaty to " 'lite and set» while." The predilectiohi of all tempt themtocomply. The stronger, minded, however, deolare " they are mighti- ly pushed for time and must get on."

PORT HENRY.

Port Henry, N. Y., July 21.—Saturdaysvening last saw assembled in the (Operalouse the largest audience a musical en-ertainment has attracted there in manyears. It was the debut of Miss Corinnei*lint, an event long anticipated by heriumerouB friends inrPort Henry and neigh-irin|g towns. The debutante was ably

ssisted by Miss Fischer and Miss Fuller,•omjNew York, and by Mr. Tromblee.—was neiarly half past eight before the au-

dience ^as seated and the early comersbegan to| evince impatience. They were,however soon arrested by the appearance

Miss |\iller who opened the concert bypiano-fbrte solo, by Schumann, entitledAufschwung." The two solos in theliddle of the programme were very well

a: the boldness and dash of the firstHungarian dance of Brahms, throwing

n to a bright light the delicaey and play-ulness of the waltz, by Chopin, that fol-owed. Miss Fuller was recalled and gave

an encore that verv characteristic pieceGrieg, "Norwegian Bridal Procession

'assing By." The second number on therogramme was filled by two songs, "Estlinkij der Thau" and "Springtide." Miss"ischer, the possessor of a remarkablyich soprano voice, charmed the audiencerith the delivery of these two and reap-leared, after hearty applause, tp sing aharming little song of Chopin.* Aloudurst of applause now announced the ap-earance of Miss Flint who gracefully ac-nowledged these demonstrations of de-ght. It is now four years since we havesard Miss Flint. She has reaped the fulljneflt of these years spent in study at

ituttgart under the supervision of Prof,tfngfcr.land has returned to UB a very ac-ompligWd artist. Every person at all fa-liliar With violin, understands the im-iense difficulties to be overcome in order

render the simplest melody in a pleasingLanner. It needs indeed an artists hand> guide the bow through a de Beriot Con-srto in a finished manner as did our de-ltante. The first movement was replete

with delicate runs, thrills and arpeggios,interlaced and combined with bright mel-ody that fixed the attention of the sa-lience. The second movement, an Adagio,ras played with a depth, a warmth ofseling that marked the true artist. Thistovement was brought to an end with a>ng Cadenza, in which Miss Flint distin-guished herself by the delicacy and sweet-

ness of her very high notes. The render-ing of the Hondo was remarkably brilliantand it was impossible for the audience to

otherwise than completely carried awaythe taking rythm and melody, as wellby the delightfully piquant rendering,

tarticularly in the part where the Spicatolowing is very prominent. Miss Flint low-•ed her violin amid tremendous applause,id retired behind the scenes. Twice she

before the footlights, but the au-tience was not to be satisfied without an.mcore; she accordingly complied and the>ow that a moment before produced bold,aud tones, whispered flow a qqaint, sweet'Berceuse" which held" the audience spell-ound. Two short pieces—a Field-Singer

Nocturne and a Moorish Lament, by Mon-asterio, were pliyed later on. The latterpiece, a strange Weird composition, wasbeautifully executed and delighted her

hearers. It ia now our great pleasure toapeak of Mr. Tromblee. It to hardly nee-©wary to enumerate the pleasant emotionsexperienced while listening to his render-Ing of Beethoven's wonderful song, "Ad-elaide." The residents of Port Henry arealready acquainted with his beautiful ten-or voice and the praise we would give himwould be a repetition of former criticisms.The encore which wasloudly called for wasone of Abt's delicious little Bongs, "GoodNight My Love." A duett for tenorand sop-rano entitled "Evening 8ong,» sung by MissFischer and Tromblee was rapturously ap-plauded and the concert finally brought toa close by Gounod's "Ave Maria," whichwas sung by Miss Fischer with great sweet-ness and fervor. The difficult violin obli-gate was rendered by Miss Flint and thepiano accompaniment by Miss Fuller. Thehighest compliment the artiste can be paidis the fact that until the last sound haddied away the audience remained motion-less; not one impatient auditor anxious tobe the first to leave the hall, and from allparti of the house was heard the remark,"the! programme was much too short."The fadies, Miss Flint in particular, werethe recipients of numerous and very beau-tiful flora] pieces.

SOME TRAITS OF THE VUK1INIAN.

the whole tradition of the country uniteta a vast protest against hurry. If you meet

your neighbor on the road on horse-back,though yon had met every day for a weeklhe would loot' on you as a ourmudgeon didyou not stop and " ohat a while." If. on oBummer day, you stop at a roadside farm,house for a drink of water, you will bifortunate, if the owner is a speaking ac-quaintance, to get avray within an hour,and considerable hardening will be requiredto resist the entreaty to "lite, Sir, "lite,"that follows instantly on his greeting of rec-ognition. Rural prosperity, where thehouse stands upon the publio highway, isamong this middling olau considered ashaving something speoial In that particularto reoommend it The middle-aged or el-derly proprietor of such an enviable location,though he has nowadays to make hia boyiwork, will sit himself upon the poroh in hisshirt-sleeves, with long pipe or the less picturesquequid between his teeth, rockinghimself to and fro in the worm Summexdays. His eyes are bent always on the dustyred road that, beyond the nhade of the aca-ciaaandthe old-fashioned, straggling boxtrees which divide him from it, leads thepeople of his part of the oounty to the ooun-ty town. Riding along it at slow, amblinggaits, on Texan saddles with long, swingingstirrups, in big stmw hats and white linenjaoketo, the neighbors go by in ones andtwo* at long intervals. Bach is greeted byour venerable friend with a ahoat of entreatyto " 'lite and set» while." The predilectiohiof all tempt them to comply.
