ORGAN RECITAL.
Dr. Bradshaw presented a well-varied programme in his recital at His Majesty's last night, to a moderate audience. Caikin's "Homage to Mozart" occupied brightly the first place, though it is of somewhat mediocre art. Much more satisiying was tho ''Andantino" by Cesar Franck, combining melodic charm with depth of feeling, and his compatriot, Leon 80-llmanr. stood worthily at his side with a very interesting and stately "Suite" of four movements, of which tho impressive "Prayer and the smartly-written "Toccata" are the most noteworthy. Between them was placed the Overture of Schubert's romantic "Rosamundc," all played with great taste. In the lovely "Berceuse do Jocolyn," by Goddard, the prominence given" to the subordinate violin part of the main theme marred the effect of the song-part. Tbe clever "Badinage" by Mailly and a March by Weber completed tlie programme of the evening.
