...whole is that it was perhaps somewhat too long. The experiment made by the Pierian is very marked and its work was strong throughout. The advent of the Banjo Club as a co-partner in the work of the concert was highly relished by the audience, if judgment may be made from the prolonged applause which greeted its playing. Great praise is due to the management of the concert for the prompt manner in which the programme was carried out. The popularity of these concerts is widely increasing. The audience which filled Sanders, gave satisfactory evidence that the interest...
...turn from it to the poem entitled "From Platen." In the last Monthly Mr. Berenson gave us a specimen of poetry which was hardly creditable to his literary ability.

...congratulate the managers of the literary exercises yesterday in the successful way in which they accomplished the difficult task set them. The execution of the details of the programme left nothing to be desired, and all present heartily appreciated the care with which everything had been planned. That the judgment of the committee in the distribution of the parts was the wisest, no one can doubt who was present and listened to the speakers. Mr. Hamilton's oration was masterly in conception, brilliant in execution, and extremely dignified and impressive in delivery. His bearing and intonation gave abundant testimony...
