"f' ltl "T proved sueeeseful in promoting j
-e of tk e porfonners we are not informed ;
but as a treat to the audience, the performances
were excellent, beyond the anticipations of the most
sanguine, if applause is to be considered evidence
of the satisfaction of the audience with the perfor
mances of the Choir, certainly, the members of tho
latter ought to feel abundantly complimented, for
the demonstrations of the former In that direction
were very emphatlc, if not always timely. The au
dience was rather late in getting the better its
"constitutional timidity," by reason whereof some
of the very best of the earlier performances elicited
no token of its appreciation. At a later hour, how
ever. it exhibited a commendable disposition to
"make up for lost time," by "coming down" with a
degree of emphasis, rarely witnessed on similar oc
casions.
Bradbury's celebrated Cantata of Either, afforded
an opportunity for the exhibition of a greater variety
of musical talent, perhaps, than any other piece in
the programme ; while "Only Waiting" took the
audience by storm, though they forgot, strangely
enough, to applaud this marvellously simple and
plaintive little piece ; one of the most peffect gems
of the entire programme.
Some of the Solot were executed with a degree of
skill and ability that is rarely surpassed by vocalists
anywhere. To mention special performances of this
sort might seem invidious, in view of the fact that
the entire performance, In all its parts.was excellent,
highly creditable to ail concerned in it, and abun
dantly appreciated by the rather to demonstrative
llstners. We do not object to reasonable demonstra
tions of applause on such occasions, but, perhaps it
is as well not to allow our impulses, in a moment of
enthusiasm, to make us too noiiy

SILVER PLATEI) WARE.
I) M.-Kown respectfully announces to the people
of Wyoming County, Ih it he has made a specialty of
j HEAVY SILVER PLATING, tor years. Heavy
1 plaiting is much more economical than light. The
! more Silver put on the g >ods, the chenjicr it is done
jin pioisirtioii to the amount of Silver used. Spoon#
and Forks, should not be ol loss than 16 oz plate
!360r 4? oz. would be far more economical. Yat
! 4oz plate is called a good plat) by the trade, and.
{ poor as it is, but a small portion of all the goods
I made come up to this standard. "Ounce plate," in
j platers language means the number of ounces of
! silver, to the gri.-s of table spoons. Ail other sui
j faces are estimated by these For example, de?-
| scris are estimated at 3-4 ; Kiel tea s|>oons at 1-2 the
: surface of table-spoons. Sixteen oi. plate is 16 ozs.
lof tine stiver to the gross of tible-spoons or dining
' fdrks. 12 11 to the gross ofdesscit spoons or forks
j and 3 07.' to ti.e gross of tea-spoons This quality
jof plate will cost, on the average, twi, e as much s
| 4 oz and will have four times the amount ol silver
on H. Thirty -six ox- plate will • cost about three
I time- as much as 4 oz , and will contain uiue times
' the amount of silver in it. Thirty-six oz- plate is
