Each speaker recited with ease and unusual grace, and evinced-a true con ception of the piece which was rendered. There was a fine blending of the humor ous and the pathetic in the selection, and the audience was alternately swayed “from grave to gay—from lively to rev ery.” Anon, a tender cord vras touched in a heart responsive to a noble deed, or as sweet memories stirred the soul; and anon, the risibles were visibly affected by the humor which prevailed. The exercises were intensely interest ing, and the entire class deserve the highest commendation. Monday evening at 8 o’clock the Pri mary and Intermediate departments en tertained the vast audience with song, drill and pantomime. The little folks never appeared sweeter than when dress ed in uniform. They marched respon sive to the music in the performance of an intricate drill. They all seemed to enter into the spirit of the occasion, and eveiy one from the tiniest tot, perform ed his or her part with ease and accu racy. The programme was highly intei esting and the exercises of the highest order. '1 he children evinced a degree of training which is alike creditable to teacher and pupil. This evening’s en tertainment is worthy of special mention because of the variety of the exercise, and because of the interest which cen tres about children’s night. The exercises of Tuesday and Wednes day were equally as fittingly rendered as those of Monday, and it was a character istic feature of each participant that he or she acted their part to the fullest ex pectations of a highly delighted audi ence.
