THE GEORGETCWN AMATEUR ORCHESTRA.—The third and fina) public rehearsal of the George- town Amateur Orchestra wes given last night at Curtis hall before_a large, brilliant and appre- ciative audience. The program, well selected and not too long, was exceedingly well rendered, and shows a continued improvement, the result of careful study under the direction of its capable leader, Mr. RC. Bernays. ‘The orchestra was as- sisted’ by Mr. George Allen, jr., of Philadelphia, violoncellist, and Mr. Harvey A. Kohr, one of Washington's favorite baritones. ‘The former ger- tleman pizyed with fine taste and expression a beautiful adagio by Bargiel with orchestra accom- paniment, and in response to an encore Shubert’s Serenade, arran yy Lindner, with compantment, ir. Allen may justly among the first amateur violoncellists in the coun- try. Mr. Kohr sang the baritone song by Cai pana, “A free lance am J,” In such a manner as to elicit a warm recall, when he sang “The portrait of an absent mother,” by Andre, with a lovely cello obligato ei ec ag by Mr. Alien. This was one of the gems of the evening. Taken all in all, it was the best concert this orchestra has ever given. It would be unfair not to speak of the taste and expression with which the plano accom- paniments were played by Mr. Szemelenyi, and also the thoughtfulness which prompted its lady friends to decorate the with baskets and vases of beautiful flowers. It is understood that next season this association proposes to give four of these entertainments, all complimentary to its inactive members, who now number nearly one hun and whose membership fee of $5 per an- num entities them to four tickets to each enter- tainment, no tickets bei sold.

Itis stated in the New York Evening Post of yesterday that Brockway has been in this city and had a protracted interview with the Secre- tary of the Treasury, since his indictment by the grand jury, and that the officers of the district attorney’s office were not aware of his presence, orat least did not attempt to arrest him. This statement can not be verified, but it true, it would appear as if Brockway had given important in- formation, and it was thought advisable not to molest him then, In the N, Y. Post it it stated that he told the Secretary that the plate was given to him by some rson not connected with bureau of engrav- ing and printing; but would mot disclose who the person was. It is learned that at the time the parts of the $1,000 bond plate were abstracted, if they were genuine, they were not under the con- foal ‘the bureau of engraving and printing, but AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY Subsequemt to the counterfeiting of these bonds an order was tasaed directing the bank-note com- Re to turn over any plates made in the future to he government.
