Never in the history of Birmingham have the colored people displayed more intelligence and showed such appreciation for literary ability by the coming together of the best element of the race at St. John's Methodist Church last night, to hear and do honor to Miss Hallie Quinn Brown, the noted elocutionist. Miss Brown has few equals in her chosen art. Her manner of delivery is very charming and graceful, while her gestures are perfect. Fully eight hundred people were present. Miss Brown may well consider this one of the greatest testimonials ever tendered her in the South.—Age-Herald, Birmingham, Ala.
The greeting received by Miss Brown was very enthusiastic. The famous elocutionist recited with the greatest power and pathos "The Gypsy Girl," which was received with the liveliest demonstrations of approval.

Miss Brown acquitted herself in two other recitations in a manner that showed her elocutionary powers in the highest degree.—Savannah, Ga.
