The concert began. Song--sentimental--by a light-haired young gentleman in a blue coat, and bright basket buttons--[applause].
Another song, doubtful, by another gentleman in another blue coat and more bright basket buttons--[increased applause].
Duet, Mr.Jennings Rodolph, and Mrs.Jennings Rodolph, 'Red Ruffian, retire!'-- [great applause].
Solo, Miss Julia Montague (positively on this occasion only)--'I am a Friar'-- [enthusiasm]. Original duet, comic--Mr.H.Taplin (the comic gentleman) and Miss Martin--'The Time of Day.' 'Brayvo!--Brayvo!' cried the ornamental painter's journeyman's party, as Miss Martin was gracefully led in by the comic gentleman.
'Go to work, Harry,' cried the comic gentleman's personal friends.
