In each of these three fes- tivals the programs are of an, exeeptionally high order and the performers ‘the best that money can procure, and the preliminary are ringements are being made with an enthu- siasm that indicates a genefal Interest in them by the whole community. : The Boston festival will bo ‘tlie fifth trien- nial of the Handel sud Haydn Soclety, to which age and excellence hatd given a Nae tonal reputation, ‘The scheme contemplates seven concerts, at which ;the following works will be performed: Slendelssolin's “St Paul?

As it will be his Inst appearance tn Cinehinati, we may woll fnfer that ho will make {6 the occasion of one of tho grandest niusicut events eyor known In this country.
