THE BELLRINGERS.

The celebrated Lynch Family of Bellringers performed to crowded houses at Cambridge on Tuesday aud last night. Many of the were so pleased with the peformance on Tuesday that they repeated their visit last evening, when they were treated to an entire change of programme. Anyone must indeed be fastidious who is not pleased with the performance, for, in addition to the bellringing—which is alone worth the price of admission —there are pianoforte solos and duets; songs, both comic and sentimental ; laughable trios, musical glasses, musical clock balls and hornpipe dancing, and, to wind up, a farce that sets everybody laughing and sends them away in a good temper. Many of the items were encored, and indeed the audience seemed willing to remain half ihe night, or at any rate as long as the performance continued. The comic songs of Mr J. C. Parlatto " fetched" the audience, and were encored in every instance, his walk in "The Dude" being immense. Mr Percy Brown possesses a fine baritone voice of good compass ; his songs would, however, be greatly improved if his articulation were more distinct. MeHsrs Creme and Cyston made the C-intibs feel quite proud of their old Public Hall piano from the manner in which they drew the sweet strains of "Madame Angot" from it. The Messrs Lynch are too well known to need comment. When we say they were up to their usual form, we know that everyone who has heard them will understand that that means perfection. We would strongly recommend everyone to pay them a visit, as it may be many years (if ever) before they have an opportunity of hearing anything so good in that particular line. The Bellringers will appear at the Public Hall, Hamilton, to night and to-morrow night.
