This partook of the nature of aolass drill, in .which the members of the Institute joined, though- it must be confessed with too much dificeAoe and hesitancy for much good to be derived. The Institute then took a recess ef ton minutes. Daring the recess the audienoe were enliv ened by some very excellent musio by Profs. Robertson and Monroe, assisted by the Insti tute generally.

The Baltimore papers, from whioh city it was said tbe sohoon r Jane Morlsy hailed, oopled the Star’s statement without an. ex pressed doubt as to its truth, and other par ties were alike unsuspiolons; but it appears from to-day's Star that the entire story wasa mere invention or a Ist or April joke In other words, a oompleto feLtbood to mislead the public.
