Beethoven's Mass in C and Mendelssohn's Lobgesang were exceedingly well

performed on Wednesday evening at St. Martin's Hall, under Mr. Hullah's direction. The singers were Mr. and Mrs. Sims Reeves, Miss Palmeri Mr. Thomas, and Miss Banks, a debutante who took a small part in the performance. Miss Palmer and Mr. Thomas, both originally brought forward by Mr. Hullah, are making progress ; and Miss Banks seems a young singer of promise. Mr. HuIrsh's chorus was admirable.
