We had the pleasure last night of listening to some sweet music discoursed by the Bolivar Silver Band, under the direction of our young friend and townsman, Billy BROOKS, and we must confess that the gentlemen composing that body deserve much credit for the great degree of proficiency to which they have attained in the science of music. We are pleased to learn that the Silver Band has become a fixed institution, and we are assured that with a continuance of their former perseverance, no amateur Band in the country will be able to play with them. We thank the gentlemen for their kindness in extending to us, through their leader, an invitation to attend their regular rehearsals, and will always be most happy to avail ourselves of the pleasure.
