Wantt both of spaoe and time preelod us from d«to|[ more, in reference to theae ttniiat performeaftee, than givtng the merest, and briefest ran Ding eomoteluy on »bem. It would fatr« been labour of love to bave analyzed ihcm into their coastitMiU, and more elaborately to have examined their merits and demerit* but, for the reason* above given, we are unable to do this. At once, therefore, and without farther prefatory remark*, we plunge into the very heart of the matter.

Its pare and simple pathos was toucbingiy devei-j

This call for a repeat of that which had just delighted tho audience so much was followed, not with the thing called for, but as it Is now customary, with something else—this custom it seems to tts would be far "more honoured la the breach than the observance"—we would suggest whether It would not be b^ter either to comply with a request of this kind literally or, if inconvenient to the singer, not at all? The first soiree closed with every agreeable rendering of 'the Old Arm Chair.'

The second Soiree on Tuesday night drew together a more numerous audience than the first one. "Ol Columbia the Gem of the Ocean" was done in a spirited and happy style. We were forcibly struck, not only with the aooompaniment to this piece, but with all tho accompaniments of Profess or Currie. Our Ural opinion of this gentleman as an aocompanyist, formed on the occasion

Pluribos Unum", lacked that fire and animation with which an expression of devotion to, and a eulogy on the red, white and Woe", should invariably be delivered, still, It was, In other re apeeta, «ucli aa correct intonation, and accurate articulation, very food. The rendering of "Annie Itorie" was true to the tenderness and devotion breathing through the song—passages there were in It* in which the "carrying of the voice" was executed very beautifully—hot, ao cootralie, there were ether parts somewhat spoiled by mtlempUd "torns"—there were too many of these scattered op and down the song, especially in the first stent*. Extremely graceful and elegant was the delivery of the pessege "Fairy Birds are tinging", la

I Woold not Die In Spring Time"--so also were the sosteunto piano tones on the words "Winds are sighing" in the same song. Passing over "The Low Back'd Car'' with this one remark that it was sweetly and characteristically delivered, we come to one of the gems of the evening Lilly Dale".

word

oped by the dalcet ai?d tender tones of the singer's alluded to, were very effectively given—on the whole we thought the artist did not execute this song in first rate style. The Soiree closed with the Lament of the Irish Emigrant", which, from beginning to end, was one mass of melodious beauty!—there were several examples ol remarkably fine and evenly sustained sotto voce tones—but that on the word "Bride", at the close of the verse "When first you were my Bride" was

very melodious voice—the sensibilities of all were owukeuc^djrd kept alive by the manner in which this ve40e*atifuS song was performed—the crescendo passage on "Oh! Llly"x-the eostennto on "Dale" and the mode In wtych the mnsie of "Flowery Dale" was executed, were alike creditable to the truth and delicacy of the conception and skill of lite artist. This song was deservedly encored. But "Kuty Darling", a very pretty ballad, sweetly sung, was substituted. Then came "My Mother Dear", The "turn" on the words •tome" was neatly done-so also was the cres- given with exquisite loveliness—long, long cendo on "can See"—My Mother Dear, My gentle, gentle Mother Dear", was given with geuulne feeling and great beauty of expression—the swell and diminish on the word "dear" was finely executed. The "Grave of Napoleon" was well suiig, lmt we think that this great man has been disturbed no often In bis grave" that it would be as well, in future, to leave him in his "grave" and tils "glory" alone. The manner in *hieh the run on tbe word "again" was effected shows that the artist has not drilled himself with sufficient severity in vocalization. Trust to Luck" was hit off in a guy, careless, and charactei ietlc style. The head tone on the word "be" in "bealsy" was sweet and liquid as flowing bouey. "The Harp that once In Tarn's Hails*" was not, we think, given in an appropriate style—the mode of Its delivery made It in some parts come to the ear in jerk* and broaks instead of those continuous and majestic sounds suitable to so sombre and stately a theme. Out, "Home my Happy Home" was a rich treat. The very first words bursting in exulting tones from the songster's bosom gave us a beautifully executed Echo followed by gay, and gladsome tones all through the piece—a fine crescendo postage occurred on the words "my heart still clings to thee"—the sound on "clings" swelled, and •welled, aud sustained Itself far alolt, as if It never would detach itself and descend from its "happy, happy home." The word "Happy" was beautified by one of tbose pellucid, and mellifluent Voco dl Telto tones which melt the heart iuto which they find their way. After tlili came tho"Angel's Whisper"—Interpreted with diastolics*, elegance, and striking beauty. Tho anxiety of the fond wife for the absent aud danger beleagured husband, love for the sleeping aud smiling babe, thi pledge of mututbal affection, and the reminder of the absent one, were exquisitely depicted sentiments—the sostenuto aud sotto voce tones on the word "whimpering" —the chaste and appropriate "turn" on the word "Angels" the harmonious coloring thrown over the whole by the piano and forte tone*-—all conspired to elicit the warmest npplanse and a well merited encore.

"Annot Lyle." The execution of this song was done with truo artistic skill—various delicate and appropriate Sttrns gave a finished and heightened beauty to tho whole and added much to the delight of the audience—it was quite a treat. "Oh! would I were a boy again" was aleo very appropriately and tastefully adorned—its whole execution was just what the sentiment required.

all—ire mean the Divine gift of expression. For "it is not enough to possess a fine voice, though this gift of nature is an invaluable advantage which no degree of skill can possibly stjpgjy. Bat one who possesses the art of regulating his voice with firmness, and understands the management of its powers, sometimes produces a better effect with an inferior voice than an ignorant singer can do with a fine one." "The Widow Maboney" exhibited an exceedingly sweet Falsetto tone at the close and was given with considerable humour. After the question "Will you love me then as now"/ bad been sweetly answered, we were treated once more to Lover's "Angel's Whisper", which, as before, drew forth expressions of very warm and hearty applause and met with a welt deserved encore. In response the "Last Rose of Summer" was substituted. In executing this the artist gave proof of having gone through considerable labour in that branch of the art which consists in the, by no means easy, operation of uniting, in a neat and smooth manner, the tones of the head register with those of the chest—an example of this we had on the

"bed" which, as well aa the others

sustained, without one particle of dross, or the slightest departure from correct pitch, it was pure as silver ceven times tried—graduated and coloured as a diminuendo with the greatest nicety, it might well symbolize the long, low, faint sigh with which the poor emigrant beheld the loved native shores which contained the ashes of his buried dear ones, gradually and perhaps forever recede from his aching and tear blinded eyes! It was a beautiful gem of execution. And now a word as to the quality, compass, etc., of the singer's voice. In quality it is a fine second Tenor, not deep enough for a full Barytone nor yet capable of ranging high enough on the scale except by means of the voce di Telto, to take, with ease, a high tenor part yet its compass with the aid of ihe upper register is extended enough for all practical purposes. In any part of its compass it is a melodious voice but in some of its tones it is exceedingly sweet. MB. TURNER has also subjected himself to considerable labour in the cultivation of his voico and the careful attuning of his car—correct intonation was preserved throughout the whole of the performances. So also did the musical faculty evidence itself in that much talked of, but little understood, and less practiced part of good execution, precise and accurate lime keeping. This added greatly to the efliciency of the performance. Still we must mention one thing that Ma. TORKER has not yet done—but which he must lie himself down to do, before he can take rank as a finished singer. Many were the attempts he made at a "trill", but, in all, a dead failure was tho result. How is this? Sufficient flexibility of voice the artist possesses—why then has it not been attained? Simply because the artist has not gone through that systematic, patient, long oontinued labour necessary to the acquisition of this, the last attained and highest of all vocal embellishments. We would therefore, in tho spirit of friendly critioism, suggest to our artist, whether il were not worth while to pass through the needful additional labor in order to become master of this very beautful accomplishment the ne plus ultra of the finished singer? If that Fifth Chapter of Lablaohe wete patiently and assiduously complied with, very different would the "trills" of MR. TURNER become from what they now are— a word to the wise. In conclusion though we cannot, with the tones of Braham, Sin-

olair, et hoc genus omne, still lingering in our ears, say, with some of Ma.
