DUBLIN. (From a correspondent.)-The last monthly dinner of the Ancient Concerts took place on Tuesday, the 15th of May, being the third Tuesday in the month. On this occasion the members who were present had the privilege of introducing one lady each as a guest. About ninety ladies and gentlemen sat down to dinner in the Society's banqueting room at 7 o'clock. President, Hon. Judge Berwick; Vice-Presidents, Alderman Kinahan, William A. Eschan, Esq., locum tenens for Rev. William O'Neill unavoidably absent. Dinner was most sumptuously served by the Society's house steward, Mr. John Ferguson. After dinner the grace, Non nobis Domine, was finely sung by the musical members present. After the usual loyal toasts were drank and appropriate music sung, the president proposed the toast, "Prosperity to the Musical Societies of Dublin," especially coupling with the toast the name of the distinguished founder of the Ancient Concert Society (1834), Mr. Joseph Robinson, which toast was received with the utmost enthusiasm. Mr. Robinson, in returning thanks, said he felt just pride in his position as conductor of a Society which had done so much to elevate the taste for the highest order of music, and had just closed a most successful season by the production, at its last concert, of so stupendous a work as Beethoven's grand mass in C, also two Psalms of Mendelssohn's, the 42nd and 55th, the latter of which was scored for full orchestra by the great composer himself expressly for performance by the Ancient Concerts. The next toast was the health of one of the Societies' guests on that occasion, Mr. William Chappell, a gentleman whose laborious researches into the history of the ancient melodies of his native country had earned for him a well-deserved and lasting reputation, and whose book upon this most interesting subject (which has been lately published), has been a most valuable addition to the works of standard merit in English literature. Mr. Chappell returned thanks in a very interesting speech. The ladies retired to the withdrawing room for tea and coffee, after which a large selection from the Macbeth music by Locke concluded the harmony of the evening. The following are some of the glees sung at the dinner table: "Raise the song," Sir John Stevenson; The clouds of night," T. Cooke; "Oh, Nanny, wilt thou gang with me;" "Ah, tell me not," Mendelssohn (Orpheus).

THE ORPHEONISTES in England. -About a year ago the streets of Paris, especially in the neighbourhood of the Champs Elysées, were unusually animated for three or four days. Numerous bands of men

in procession, bearing banners of strange device, and

The

conversation in the musical circles of the French capital. Orphéonistes became the heroes of the day. The Emperor and Empress attended their concerts; every facility was afforded them by the authorities, in order that their visit to Paris might be agreeable. The Grand Opera was thrown open to them for one evening, dinners were given in their honour, and they must have departed as gratified with the reception accorded to them as the Parisians were with their very interesting performances. Our readers will be glad to hear that the Orphéonistes have made arrangements to visit London in the course of the present month, and will appear at the Crystal Palace on the 25th, 26th, and 28th instant, under the leadership of M. Eugène Delaporte, their conductor, by whom the Orphéon Association was established. We need only mention this fact to ensure for them a reception quite as warm and as sympathetic as they experienced in Paris. They are all amateurs, and for the most part belong to the industrial classes. The association numbers 30,000 members, and has its branches in almost every town of France. It is, therefore, far larger than any similar society in Europe, and its 3,000 representatives about to visit England may well claim attention We learn that the Sacred Harmonic Society and Mr. Leslie's choir intend publicly entertaining them, and the The example will doubtless be followed by other musical bodies. 3,000 Frenchmen do not come, it will be remembered, from the capital, but from the provinces of France, and the majority have never set foot in this country. They are, therefore, strangers in every respect, and cannot fail, if hospitably welcomed, to carry back into the heart of their native land an impression of England that may promote good feeling between the two nations. The arrangements of the directors of the Crystal Palace for the reception of the Orphéonistes and their conveyance by the various lines of communication between London and Paris are now nearly complete, and one of the largest steamers of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Company has been placed at the service of those who come from Bordeaux, Toulouse, and other parts of the south and west of France. The entire body, it is anticipated, will reach London by Sunday, the 24th instant; a rehearsal will take place the following morning, and in the afternoon the first performance takes place. The Handel orchestra will be decorated with French flags and appropriate emblems, and the tricolour will wave from lofty staffs in front of the Palace and grounds. The Corporation of London have' assigned the two large unoccupied hotels, temporarily furnished, in the Islington cattle-market, for the accommodation of such as are not otherwise provided for. The Emperor of France has, moreover, given permission to the band of the Guides to accompany the Orphéonistes to England.

WHAT IS BUFFO SINGING? May a learned man be a buffo? Does this branch of the entertaining art consist of a gentleman burying his ears underneath the turned-up collar of his Chesterfield; of dressing his head with cambric; of making wry faces; of outre gyrations; of running from side to side of a platform, all the while talking nonsense, and roaring rank heresies? Is that buffo? is the man who does so a buffo; or, rather, is this buffo singing? We heard a sensible looking person the other night in the Theatre squeal like a cat-and then like a monkey, convert his body into something like a half pump-to be seen sometimes in a burgh where there are no teetotalers-draw up his arms and droop his hands like paws; and the audience roared at the “comic singer." This gentleman, however, we now recollect, was not a "buffo," -at least he did not pass as such :- but we have a right to know whether monkeys, cats, bears, et hoc genus omne, may also be personated by a professional of the buffo class, after, say, "Woman, lovely woman, oh ?" Were we spared on Saturday evening a miniature menagerie because "buffos" ave "buffos," and take up their attention solely with the lower and more vulgar absurdities above intoleration? It, seriously, would be a gain did we know how much we are indebted to the good sense of Mr. Fraser, who really is a capital" buffo," (if, that is to say, we are not in error as to what a "buffo" really is) in keeping us a good many removes from the cat and the monkey -Ancient Leaf.

The above Songs form Nos. 1, 2, and 3 of Vocal Illustrations of Shelley. "Mr. Santley was encored in one of the thoroughly picturesque and poetical settings of Shelley, by Mr. J. W. Davison, mentioned a week or two since. His song, Rough wind that moanest loud,' is a thoroughly good song."-Athenæum.

"Madame Sainton-Dolby's greatest efforts were called forth by Mendelssohn's 'Night' song, and Mr. J. W. Davison's False friend, wilt thou smile or weep' (from Shelley's Cenci'), to both of which she did the amplest justice. The latter work is one of the most poetical and beautiful of the Vocal Illustrations of Shelley,' composed by Mr. Davison many years ago, and which, though rarely heard, possess far more sterling merit than nine-tenths of the most admired songs of the day. A more intellectual treatment of the words could not well be imagined. Mr. Davison has completely caught the spirit of the poetry, and heightened its beauty by the potent charms which belong only to the sister art. False friend, wilt thou smile or weep,' sung to perfection by Madame Sainton-Dolby, was enthusiastically applauded." Morning Post, April 26, 1860. Cramer, Beale, and Chappell, 201 Regent Street.
