London : PATEY AND WILLIS , 44 Great Marlborough Street , W . WK have received a capital selection of music from Messrs . Patey and Willis , got up in a careful style . " All in tho wild March Morning " is a good , spirited and attractive song , written by William Twamley and composed by C . F . Horan . The words are interesting ,
while the melody is tuneful . Mary Mark-Lemon and A . H . Behrend ' s song " Stories " is , we feel sure , destined to become one of the attrac tions of the season . Good words , set to a most attractive and melodious refrain , make up a really charming composition . Tha compilers of ball programmes have also had their wants looked after
"The Albert Victor" is a capital waltz , easy to play , and a good one to dance to . " Un Chant D'Amour" is another spirited piece , with a catchy aud melodious refrain . Both these waltzes have been composed by Felix Burns , as also has " The May Queen , "
a conntry dance for the pianoforte , which is a piece admirably suited for the drawing-room ; the music is not difficult , yet tuneful , and will become popular . We recommend all these pieces to tha notice of onr readers .

THE THEATRES , & c .
Kilburn Town Hall . —On Tuesday last a dramatic recital took place , whioh deserves special notice from the fact that Miss Ethel Davies , who gave ifc , showed quite exceptional elocutionary and dramatic powers , which angur well for her future should she be persuaded to devote that future to art . Her recitations included the
whole range from comedy to tragedy , and ifc says a great deal for her powers that only in the case of the somewhat hackneyed " Charge of fche Light Brigade " were we disappointed . Her recitation entitled " A Lawn Tennysonian Idyll" was particularly effective . Among those who assisted were Mr . Lawrence Kellie , who sang with feeling
the well known song , of which he is tho composer , "Douglas Gordon , " and Miss Hope Temple , who gave an effective rendering of the song " Because I love thee . " Miss Hope Temple , whose pupil Miss Davies is , must have been gratified at tho success of the evening ' s entertainment .
