We hope the public attention will be attracted to a Concert, for the benefit of the Public Dispensary, which is to take place on Thursday next, at the Freemason’s Hall, as announced in an advertisement in another part of our paper. We understand the funds of the Institution are at a low ebb, and know it to be worthy of support. The Concert comprises nearly all the vocal and instrumental talent at this time in the country.
