Our Cromwell correspondent writes : The Dominican Convent School concert took place on Wednesday evening in the Athenreum Hall, which was packed to the door by a highly appreciative audience. The various items were well rendered, and showed the care, and skill the sisters display in their teaching and training. A cantata, ' Tho Judgmeni. of Flowers,' was especially well done, the hand-some dresses of the girls, each representing a dliferent flower, forming a pleasant spectacle. Tho receipts totalled over £SO. The Alayoi (Mr E. ilurrcll), in the absence of Father Hunt, thanked the audience for their patronage and the pupils and their teachers for the evening's entertainment they had provided.
