Nothing in the manner of (he speaker nor in the matter of his discourse gave us any glimpse of the great mind and char­acter which we suppose . him to possess, a fact quite generally recognized and sin cerelv regretted.

Our rccent contact with Mr. Tayl9r

It is quite probable that the rendi­tion of this favorite and in every sense most excellent piece of music by a cast of singers, made up exclusively of home

talent, will be one of the most merito­rious performances ever witnessed in this city. The Scriptural aphorism; "A Prophet is not without honor save in his own country," is usually trans­posed by the public, and understood to mean, a Prophet is without honor in his own country; and this affirmative expression may be too true, but it is not at all likely to be the fault of the Prophet. The fact is, we underesti­mate the character and attainments of those with whom we are familiar, and seldom luok for excellence or skill among those of our immediate acquain­tance, hence we are seldom satisfied with their performances. Everything "first class" we expect to import, and in our efforts to do it, we get beautiful­ly humbugged. Under the very care­ful and efficient drill which Professor Mover—one of the most accomplished musical directors in the West—is giv­ing the singers of Austin, they will bo able to entertain an audience as acccpt ably as the same number of persons from any othsr place can do, and the citizens should take especial pride in patronizing their own neighbors and iriends. If never again, let Jones' IIul! be filled on next Friday evening.
