The annual concert of the Georgetown Fo- male Seminary came off yesterday evening in the spacious ball of the institution, which was crowded to overflowing with the parents and relatives of the young ladies and invited guests. ‘Ihe exercises consisted in recitations in Prose and poetry, exercises upon the piano, and singing. In each of these exercises the young ladies acquitted themselves in a manner whieh perfectly delighted the entire auditory. At the conclusion of the concert a num ber of handsome medals and prizes were bestowed a the most proficient as awards of merit. ‘The following are the names of the yoang le dies upon whom whom the awards of merit were bestowed ; Reetor’s gold medal, to Miss Mary Oden, representative of whole school medal, to Miss Mary KR. Douglass, representa- tive esnior class; second do. do., to Miss Ann P. Atkinson. representative of middle class; third do. do., to Mise Clara Laub, and fourth do do, to Priscilla Worthington, repre- sentatives of junior class; fifth do. do., to Miss Anna Linthicum, represeutativs of pre- paratory department; sixth do do, to Miss Mary Holmoad, representative of the French class; seventh do. do., to Miss Julia B.

Morton, of Charles County, Md; Misa Gertrude Lee, of Clarks- burg, Va. It is but proper we should say that the young ladies generally, in each of the clasaes, were so very proficientin all their studies, that most of the before mention medals and prizes could only be awarded by ballot. This institution is one of the most useful sad flourishing of the kind in this section of country. It is entirely undor the control and wwanagement of the Rev. Mr. Clark and bis wife, and the number of pupils haa increased ene hundred per cent. during the past year.

The White House Pavilion and the Grounds adjacent were, on Tuesday, the scene of one of the pleasantest scenes that has ever ‘Braced that home of gayety. The Y. C. F. Society and their friends spent the day there; music and dance, song and feast mado the day joyous, and lent their charm to many hours of the moonlit night. On Wednesday, large nutbeys availed themselves of the two excur sions to epend a pleasant day at the White House or Fort Washington. and yesterday the Methodist Episcopal Sabbath school gave a delightful pic-nic on the green sward beneath the ramparis of Furt Washington, Tho gallant firemen of the old Friendship are preparing for afair early in the coming autumn.
