THE INFANT DRUMMER, OF .HACON, GA. NOTICESOFTHE PRESS. The Infant Drummer —ls a prodigy beyond a shai ,ow of a doubt. On Saturday evening, at St. Andrew’s Ilall, we could imagine that Old a Dominie Sairpson could he have stepped out from the “wizard's page” which records his history, into the form and perception of a living man, would have articulated “pro-IM-gious!” with an energy and frequency that would have taxed his antiquated jaws to the utmost of their power. In truth, i the child’s every performance is prodigious ; in the geni- ; us exhibited by this mere baby, just from his mother’s ; arms, in his perfect command of time; bis kindling en- j thnsiasm under the inspiration of music ; in the torrents j of sounds, (and sound that is ever melodious) which are j drawn from the drum by his tiny arms. We are com- j plotely at fault; we do not understand it; we can not do- i scribe it : we could not have believed it had we not seem it. J The child is a wonder 1 He is something more—he is a study for the mental philosopher. Reader, if you are j desirous, once in your life, to behold an unquestionable j prodigy, go and see the Infant three year old Drummer, j Savannah Georgian. i The Infant Drummer. —We have seldom been more agreeably entertained, or more profoundly astonished, than ! we were last evening at St. Andrew’s Hall. It is a sight unique, curious, and in a high degree pleasing, to see u ] wee bit of a boy, with arms scarcely bigger than the drum sticks he wields with such consummate skill,—life, energy, ymd spirit in every motion, dignity in every step, martial j ■bearing in his air, and the fire of enthusiasm and intelligence beaming in his eye and kindling o’er his face, marching with measured step to his own melody, and scattering I around him like radiant beams, the finest and most brilliant tones of his instrument—the man who can look upon it, and ieel no pleasurable emotion, hath forgotten that he ever i was a child! I hey name him rightly when they call him a prodigy— i the Drummer is truly a wonderful’little creature, and to 1 have seen and to have heard him will be a pleasing thought ! for many a day to come.— Savannah Republican. A Card to the Public. The Manager ol the Concerts given by the Infant Drum- ; mer with the view of giving a senes of Musical Entertain ments, in the principal cities of the South, including the 1 child’s native State, would most respectfully call the atten- i Mon of the citizens of this place, and the public generally, to ! a few considerations in relation to this gifted, renowned and j truly illustrious child,who has won for himself, during the 1 last twelve or fifteen months, by the exhibition of his unac- : countable innate arid precocious genius, as more particular- * ly developed by his extraordinary, astounding and uncon- i ceivablefeats of skill on the drum, a celebrity unparalleled i in the history of the world, in the biographies ol the most j and istinguishea personages of this or any other age, or even in the wild and imaginative theories of ancient Mythology. The Infant Drummer has just returned from an almost nnprecented successful tour through the Eastern, Northern and Western States, including Canada, where he has been the subject of more laudation, and complimentary notice, . from the press and the masses'generally, than any artistic performer that has ever appeared upon the stage of this, or any other country not excepting Jenny Lind. And the encomiums and high-wrought eulogies which he has re ceived, and is still receiving, is amply corroborated by the unsolicited testimony, and unqualified approbation of the most distinguished musical critics, and by cards, letters, and speeches from various eminent personages, including the > Governors of the States and Mayors of cities, through which he has passed : and others, among whom may be mention ed the late Hon. Henry Clay—all, with unanimity and en thusiasm, acknowledged their surprise and admiration, and all of which is endorsed and confirmed by the respectable and crowded audiences, and the plaudits and huzzas of the hundreds and thousands that have greeted him wherever ho has performed,—on his appearance at Charleston, being hi first appearance at the South. s Mayor Hutchison called upon the manager, inviting the Infant Drummer to give a private entertainment at his own residence, at which his Honor presented the child with a handsome sum of money, accompanied by a note expressing his astonishment and appreciation. It would be too tedious to enumerate and particularize all t lie marks of approbation which were extended to him by the citizens of Charleston alone. By way of expressing the obligations we owe to the citizens of that place in behalf of the Infant Drummer, the following marks of their esteem are enumerated : A full Uniform, presented to him by the Cadets of the So. Ca. Military Institute ; a Silver Goblet and Salver, presented by the Washington Light Infantry, with an appropriate inscription ; a unique and tasty uniform presented by the Vigilant Fire Company; a beautiful Silver Knife and Fork, presented by Capt. Berry, ol the steamer .‘‘Marion and a massive Silver Fire Horn, by the German lire Company,including many neat and valuable presents made by private individuals, accompanied by commendato ry notes of appreciation. It might not be out of place here to men.ion, that while performing at Columbia (S. C.)his Excellency Gov. Man mug, entered the Concert Room, just as the child was com mencing, when he instantly struck up and rattled off“ Hail to the Chief,” with fine effect. After the performance, the Governor addressed the child in some very complimentary remarks, and presented him with a handsome sum of money. On his first appearance in his native State at Augusta, the j citizens of the place fully proved by their raptuous applause j and distinct marks ot approbation, that ho was an exception to the general rule, that a “prophet is not without honor save in his own country ” and notwithstanding the weather * was very unfavorable, his Coccerts were densely crowded, \ and included the first families in the place. Among other evidences of their appreciation, the Clinch j Rifles voted him a full Uniform which was worn by the ! Infant Drummer, at his fourta Concei t in that place, they I voted him an Honorary Member of their Company, and j presented with handsome embossed cards including a Ceiti t ilieate, of his Membership and a testimony of their appro- j ciationof bis extraordinary merits. Amongtlie many rich and valuable presents made tv this j child at the North, are four Uniforms, presented by the Mili- j tary ot New York and Philadelphia. Major Dutton, of the i United States Army, a veteran of the last war. has also pre- j sented him with a Brass Drum, a valuable relic of that war i which he used during the exciting scenes of 1814, on which j he performs in connection with the one presented by the j Brooklyn Brass Band. To say that this child is a good drummer, and that he j beats the drum with the skill and precision that is astonish- ! ing, or that he is a perfect drummer and cannot be excelled, j all this language is tame and trite when compared with the ! expression ot the feelings experienced while listening to the perfect concord and witnessing the energy and skilful move ments ot this Infantile Genius in the Concert Room. His performance must be seen to be appreciated, as it is univer- j sally acknowledge by all who have heard him, that no lan guage can he employed emphatic enough to express or con vey an accurate idea of the pleasure and deeply interesting i sensation elicited by this ‘*ue plus ultra” of Nature’s Won- ’ ..ers. The South, and Georgia more particularly, will, un. j doubtedly, proudly proclaim him her pride and glory. W. J. DEMUREST, Manager. j January 26, 1353.-l\v&t\v DANCING ACADEMY AT ‘is3D ill| JSiT-f MAIL. MR. GEORGE W.
