Among the multitudinous benefit concerts at this time of the

year, Mrs. Anderson's is always the foremost, and this season it has been even more brilliant than usual. It was given on Monday morning, in Her Majesty's Theatre ; and all the stars of the opera shone for her advan- tage. There were Alboni, Piccolomini, Albertini, Wagner, Calzolari, Belletti ; besides Clara Novelle, and others, not belonging to the theatre. Mrs. Anderson herself; who had long been disabled from playing by an accident to her wrist, appeared once more in public. She performed one of Hummers concertos with that powerful tone, brilliant execution, and classic purity of style for which she has been always distinguished. There was an immense concourse of the most fashionable company in London.
