The ORAroRio.-Prooably the largest paying
audience ever assembled in TIE Tsbernacie-num-
bsring 1ot under Four Thousand-ga;hered there
last evening TO hear Neukomm's grand Oratorio
of David performed by the New-York Sacred
Masic Society. The physique Of the performance
was very imposing-the female choruses, mostly
young ladies' dressed in white, were placed in
front on either side OF the Director, and the male
chorusses and orchestra skilful!y arranged in The
back ground. The Oratorio itself was very credita-
bly, performed, and the audience were not backward
in testfying their satisfaction. The sweet and pic
turesque singing Of Mrs. Strong, in the first part
received with uuboundsd admiration. Madame
Otto sustained her r6ie with her usual ability, and
Mr. NJ. Colburn, as David, wa. quite al home. His
voice is fne. flexible tenor, but uncertain in the
upper notes. Dir. Broush, the popular vocalist,
sang the musio CT Saul in manner TO add to his
previous reputation. The choruses were very cre-
ditable, although the articulation Of the ladies was
ior the most part tco studied and awkward. Seve-
raj of the con,ral,o voices were very rich; the So
prsnos tolerable. The flute and clarinet were very
6ne, and the yioloncello more than good
