"We have not time to-night to speak of Theodore Thomas' very emphatic success at the pleasant place called the Terrace Garden, between Fifty-eighth and Fifty-ninth streets, in Third-avenue. It must suffice that he has a superb orchestra, and that here on every evening of the Summer we can hear music quite as well interpreted as in Vienna or Dresden. The attendance last night was particularly good, and represented all classes of the community. The Terrace Garden is, we think, a place where the most sensitive person may go without feeling offended with those who surround him."
