THE BELLRINGERS.
In spite of the unfavorable weather, a well-filled house greeted the Lynch Family Bellriugers last night at the Town Hali, and the performance given quite equalled the high anticipations that had been formed. The bellrin»ing was of course the chief fea'.uve of the etUertaiuuieut. Among the items rendered were "The Blue Bells of Scotlaud " (quartette) ; " Marseillaise" aud "Star Spangled Banner " (quintette); "Lastßoseof Summer" (duel); "Sweet Chiming Bolls" (quintette) ; " Home, Sweet Home " (duet) ; and College Hornpipe ; all of which were given iv the best style, and with wouderful precision and accuracy. Mr. Harry Lyneh's performance ou the musical glasses wa< very clever, and Mr. W. W. Lynch with his selection from " Les Cloches "on the clock hells (with piimo) gave the audience a real trpat. The variations and refrain parts of the foregoing items were cleverly executed and much appreciated. The other features oi the performance were comic singing and bor/jpipe dancing, m wliicli Messrs. Farhato and K. and W. Lynch took part. Mr. Pavlatto was particularly successful with his character songs, and exceptionally so in an argumentative Dutch song, causing roars of lanyhter. The enteitainment concluded with an amusing farce, " Five shillings a week," the situations being very funny and the sayings very humorous. The company' appear again this evening, lor which occasion a change of programme is promised. We cau recommend a visit.
