Departure of Mr. Braham.—The great Braham, the vocalist, accompanied by his lady and family—including his son Charles Braham, a youthful singer of remarkable promise, embarked yesterday in the Cambridge packet ship for Liverpool. He left for England, thus suddenly, in consequence of letters from London managers, inviting him to return and sing at Covent Garden, or Drury Lane. Mr. Braham has spent about two years in this country, south, east, west and Canada. His visit has been profitable and honorable, and he has left it with a declaration of visiting us again. We doubt, however, whether his purpose will ever be realized. As an artist, Braham is truly the wonder of the age—he has been a public vocalist, nearly fifty-six years, and seems yet fresh and youthful.
