TIIE MANZONI REQUIEM, The Becthoven Soclety repeated Verdl's Munzoni [tequiem-Mass last cvening ot Me- Cormick Hall, The audience was much smaller than it should have been, considering tho at- traction preseuted; but was larger than might have been anticipated, considering tho disagreo- ablencss of the weathor, Ilaving spoken at Jength dnregard to tho performance of last wants of sheiter, food, and fuel .could be sup- plied Ly their own unatded ciortss and Ium exceedingly destrous that those whose coudition and circumstances cxposo them to the same proveeation and suffering which many are now experiencing, but who now have ft intheir power to take @ new departure and place themselves in mure hopeful clrcumstances for the future, sbwuld do so.
