Reading by Mr. Hayes.

Last evening Mr. J. J. Hayes gave a reading at the Wells Memorial Institute on Washington street, Boston. He was assisted by a double quartette from the 'Varsity Glee Club, who sang several selections. The hall was densely crowded by a most appreciative audience which was composed largely of members of the Wells Institute, - a philanthropic club formed for the benefit of the working classes. At the close of the entertainment, Mr. Robert Treat Paine made a short address.
