YORKSHIRE MUSICAL FESTIVAL.

• SUNDAY Mostsergo.
This grand Meeting. which has so long excited the curiosity and
expectations of ail elanses in the kingdom, and smongct the mu.
sical professors and others on the Continent, is now on the ?fee of
its commencement. The extraordinary pains which have been
taken to render this Festival pre-eminent above all that has hither-
to taken place, and to make it an era in the musical annals, jastify
our devoting to it a greater space than is usual on these occasions,
and we are the more called upon to do so, by the Intense interest
which exists amongst those who are prevented by circumstances from
being on the spot.
In 1823 , the impression produced by the united efforts of nearly I
600 of the grenteat musical artists in the world, was too profound
to be easily effaced, and the proceeds of the meeting proved how
highly the exertions of the directors had been appreciated, between
seven and eight thousand pounds remaining to be divided between
the four charities, after all the enondous expenses had been die.
charged. Anxious to make the present Festival still more worthy
of snpport and admiration, and with a laudable view of making
the profits to the charities still greater, the Committee of Manage-
ment have for months been labouring to procure the aid of all
those splendid talents that have obtained the patronage of the
musical world, and their labours have been crowned with the most
complete success.
In the vocal part of the detail will be found the names of the fol-
lowing talented individuals, whose assistance has been procured at
an immense expense, viz. Madame Caradori, Mademoiselle Gar.
cia, Misses Stephens. Wilkinson, Goodall, Travis, Farrar, itc.;
Signor 1)e Begnis, Messrs. Utahans, Sapto. Bellamy, Vaughan,
iH. Phillips, Isnyvett, Terrell. &e. Theinstrumental depsreinent
is, if possible, still more effective, being composed of the following
celebrated performers:—Messrs Cramer, Greatorex, Mori, hies.
wetter, boiler, Nicholson, Bochsa, 'White the I,indleys, Draw-
netti, Anfossi, R. Ashley, Erskine, IVillman, Mackintosh, two
Tully's, Powell, Sharpe, Platt, Petrides Harper, Walls, Scho.
engen, &c. To conduct and lead the performances the Committee I
appointed as follows, iris. Conductor, Mr. Greatorex; Assistant',
Conductors, Mr. Camidge, Dr. Cartilage, Mr. White, and Mr. I'.
Knapton ; Leaders. Mr. Cramer for the morning performances,
endlor the concerto, Messrs Mori, Bieswetter, and Loder; to preside
at the organ Dr. Camidge, at the pianoforte Mr. Greatorex, at the
harp Mr. Bochsa, and that every department might be complete,
and itself of surpassing excellence, the quadrille band of Michau,
Collinet,and Musard is engaged. The whole of the performers
are thus summed up—Vocal, 90 cantos ,70 altos, 90 tenors, anti
100 basses—total, 330. Instrumental, principal second violins 87,
principal vidlas 32, violoncellos 24, double basses 18, flutes 6,
;shoes 12, clarionettes 6, bassoons 12, horns 11, trumpets 6, bass
trombones 3, tenor ditto 3, alto ditto 3, serpents and bass horns 8,
double drums 2—total 231—independent of the leaders and con-
ductors, and some office engagements. The important office of
engaging the chorus singers was intrusted to Mr. White,
one of the conductors, who, for a very considerable time
has been actively employed in selecting them from the different
Choral Societies, anti be gives an extremely favourable report of
their efficiency. He has held rehearsals in the several districts,
and by so doing secured the most perfect confidence and accuracy
performers—matters essential to filagreed effect which
will result rim the union of Six hundred voleet anffinstruments at
onetime. The overwhelming force of this powerful orchestra will.
be hcl6 in all its grandeur at the opening on Tuesday, in the Gloria
Palritt of the Jubilate (the symphony being-omitted, as room.
mended by the late Dr. Burney); here every voice and instrument
will burst forth in one mighty crash of harmony, and (as has been
justly observed) stamping at the first moment of the festival its
character for grandeur and soblimity, which the soft warbling and
sweeter melodies of its lighter harmony will not be aisle to efface.
There will be thirty choruses which were not performed in 1823,
and amongst them are two which are mostly left out in the Mrs.
stab, viz. " The Lord gave the word," and " Break forth with
joy."
The fame of such a brilliant and unparalleled assemblages of ta-
lent speedily spread itself, not only in this country but on the Con.
tinent, for we find a full Programme of the Festival in the Bain.
burgh Correspoackiden of the 21)(11 ult.. from which we also learn
that several German and Italian amateurs will be present ou this
interesting occasion.
The next point to which the attention of the Committee of Ma-
nagement was directed, was the rendering the interior of the 31in.
ster capable of accommodating a greater number of sinkers than
were provided for in 1832. for which purpose two galleries have
been erected in the side aisles, thus making provision for at least
one thousand live hundred additional auditors, the decorations be-
ing in strict conformity with the noble architecture of the church.
Care has been taken to increase the facilities of ingress and
egress, so that on the conclusion of the performance the whole of
the audience will be enabled to leave in about ten minutes. The
appendages on the outside of the Cathedral are of the most sub.
stantial kind, and the entrances will be secured against any contin-
gencies of the weather by a rooting of slate. Staircases are erected
leading to the upper side galleries, through the windows at the
end of the south and north sites; and the whole of the seats are
covered with crimson cloth. The arrangement of the orchestra is
not as in 1823--it comes about fifteen feet more into the nave, and
the chorus singers will be placed under each side adjoining the
theohfaovfet u he

much as possible separated from tech other—the gentlemen pees.

and the ladies the stalls and seats on, the eptitseite side. In the
centre, men and women, together with a.perty of the 7th Hussars,
and some of the national school children, Titre mixed without disen.
mination, and on the benches nearest, the altar the same natu-
ral combination of light and shade took plite. The ladies in the
stalls and pews adjoining them were all splandidly attired in the
gayest tints of azure, lake, and pink, and ,had. of course, abright, beautiful, and bewitching appearance, amidst the sombre
oak canopies and carvings about them. After the usual service, the
Rev. Archdeacon Eyre delivered an appropriate diecierree from the
12th chapter and bth verse of the Book of Preiverbs—" The
thoughts of the righteous are right, but the cos:noels of the
wicked are deceit." fhe Reverend preacher, dwelt
:et some
length, and with much p eloquence and energy, e upon the
vanity of all earthly enjoyments, and the delusive pleasures de.
rived from sensual and vicious gratifications. The Pole charm pf
the latter was in anticipation, and their fruit, disappolnunent, pain,
and remorse. The practice and study of virtue alone conferred hap.
pincer, and left the mind in the possession of peace and self 9.
proval. Upon such a subject there could be no better authority
than Solomon himself, who had rioted in every indulgence, and
whose sins were only equalled by his repentance. He had drained
the cup of pleasure to the dregs, and found it all bitterness--his
heart had swam in earthly delights, and they imparted ao lasting
felicity. The preacher then instanced the uncertainty of all human
mat fidations, when Belshazzar in the midst of his unrivalled feast. and
Herod on his throne, were called to account by the Almighty. After
expatiating upon the necessity of withdrawing our affections from
the tensualities of this world, and seeking happiness and heaven in
religious devotion and the cultivation of virtue, he adverted to the
approaching Festival in nearly these terms :—" Having thus ad.
dressed you generally, my dear fellow-Christians, I cannot let this
opportunity pass without some notice of the great Festival to be
shortly celebrated within these sacred walls. In the earliest ages of
the Church, solemn ceremonies of this description were not unfre.
quent ; but in process of time they became scenes of licentionsnese,
and degeneiated from their original high and holy purposes. At
the Reformation, which was bur a correction of the errors engrafted
upon the true Religion of Christ, the religious performance
of .sublime music at stated intervals was retained. I'e was
subsequently prohibited in this country during the reign
of fanaticism. The Church of • hngland, Aleowever, which
holds d middle course, and neither adomi herself in the
garish. veltments of the Ronian Catholic profession, Dix
is muffled up in the dirk and gloomy cloak of the fanatic is sue
• averse to festivals like the present, under proper limitation*: Pro.
sided the end be not forgotten in the mean, it is quite consistent
with the cheerful worship of the established church of this realm,
that roe should listen to and cherish those divine strains which beer
homage to the glory and power of the Most High. Cold, indeed,
must be that heart which could be insensible to the echoes of a then.
, sand voices, and of a host of musical instruments, pealing through
the arches of this venerable temple in songs of praise and thank,.
giving, and not catch something of the pious fervour with which
they are inspired. Who could bear loud Hosannahs ringing along
these vaulted domes, whether infidel or atheist, and not own a rm.
pathetic reverberation of the hallowed soudds in his own breast? No
one could remain unmoved at what may be supposed a faint rem.
sentation of heaven itself, and a foretaste of the eternal blessed.
nets which the righteous shall enjoy hereafter. But if only one
callous sinner hare his heart touched and softened to a true salmi
religion by the thrilling melodies poured forth on this occasion, the
glory of the Most High will be illustrated. Independent, there.
fore. of the benevolent objects of the festival, it was of II religion
tendency, and may the Almighty shed the dew of his blessings
upon all who may be gathered together on such a Christian secs.
sion, and by his grace awaken every good feeling in the breasts of
those who hear his praise."

Li) IHE EDLTOR OP THE BRITISH PRESS.
eta—ln an amusing extract given in the British Press
at Saturday. from " A Journey through England," written.
in the year 17t4, I remarked the following curious sen-
tence: speaking of the Royal Exchange, and the buyers

plied at this day on the Stock Exchange to the same class
of persons, I have often heard inquiry made as to the
origin of the terms " Bulls and Bears," as applied to the
buyers and ellersof stock, but have never heard their de-
rivation tatisfactorily Recounted for. One'of the appella-
tires, the Bois, we pave now got at ; I with some one
world givi us a solution equally satisfactory as to the
B„ ii,, Q,. Had the term any connection originally
with John Nil, as the credulous-purchaser? There is a
reverts, by the way, that was much in use about that
period, which may throw some light upon this application
of the term, which was this—" Define yqu Ell the skin,

PRISON DISCIPI:114 urthe NRTHERLA.VDS.

The Journal de Bre:eller contains the follo*ing account
of the state and discipline of the prisons of Ghent. The
other gaols in the Netherlands ire conducted in much the,
same manner :

All the prisoner( ale employed in various labours, one
Oft Of the produce wing to the 'treasury, and the other to
the prisoners tbemselvee. They are occupied in the manu-
facture of different articles for the services of the war,
marine and colonial departments, besides stuffb, and other
articles, necessary in the prisons.
The proportion retained of the earnings of the prisoners
in favour of the State, is 5-10ths from those simply im-
prisoned as a punishment ; 8-10ths from those detained
by military authority ; and 7-10ths from those who, be.
sides imprisonment, are condemned to hard labour. The
surplus is divided into two parts, one of which is imme-
diately made over to the prisoners is pocket money, and the
other accumulates till their departure, when it is given them.
Divine service is performed in the prisons in a suitable
manner. Distraction is afforded to the men by one of their
own sex, and to the women by a female. The profits on
the liquor sold in the' prisons are for the benefit of the
prisoners, end are distributed in the shape of rewards to
these of the prisoners. who may have shown the greatest
degree Of defitity and intelliger.ce in hit work. These
premium' dWributed twice in the yet*. ' There' area'
two accounts of the prisoners conduct kept, one by the
governor of the prison, and the other by the superin-
tendent of the works. These accounts are transmitted
twice a year to the Government. The Commissioners of
the administration append to them proposals for the re-
mission or relit- vim of the punishment, upon which his
Majesty afterwards decrees what he mty find suitable.
Jonsun• Soo'scorn .—'l'wo Prophets of the South-
co:ian flock, made their appearance here, during the course
of last wrek,witli the iutention, we suppose, of making
proselytes. n their arrival they issued advertisements to
the following effect 'f hi. is to give notice that John
Wise, a servant of God, who has travelled in foreign na-
tions, will preach•the Everlasting Gospel of the redemp-
ti in of ;he body "in the Brickfield, Ordnance-ground, on
Sunday, September 4th, 1825 !" On the Sunday, accord-
ing to announcement, these arise men appeared on the spot
selected; they were both bearded like the pard, and had
an extraordinary appearance. One of them, the speaker,
our informant observes, had an horn and an iron rod, the
Litter of which he constantly flourished, to the no small
dismay of those standing sear him. There were many
persons assembled, from motives of curiosity, to witness
their conduct. The horn, we are given to understand, is
emblematical of the ram's horns, spoken of in the Bible,
and wr.eli the orator stated, when he sounded, the rege-
nerated could assemble together from all quarterq of the
world, and be gathered under Johanna's wings. His ad-
dress was a mixture of absurdity and ignorance. One can
scarcely credit that the present era can be the 19th cen-
tury of enlightened England. How disgraceful is the
scene we above allude to, andwhat perversion of the truths
contained in that sacred Book, from which these persons
maintain they have their authority, does such conduct dis-
play.—rymoulli Paper.
CONSECRATION OF A JIILISH STNACIOOUE.--011 Fri-
day last, it two -o'clock in the afternoon, a total suspension
of business took place among the professors of the Hebrew
faith in Manchester, oh account of the consecration of.their
sew synagogue, wiaim h solepin ceremony was performed
by the Rev. 31. S. Openheim, chief reader to the Liver-
pool congregation, who also composed the music for the
orchestra. The synagonue, which is in every respect suit-
able for the performance of divine worship, exhibited on
being entered a grand and imposing effect, being decoratedl
as on the sacred festivals. At three o'clock the elders and
l
chief members, preceded by the reader, and accompanied
by severs! youths Is chanters, presented themselves at the
inner entrance, singing. the following verse from the Iltith
Nairn :—" Open to me the gate/J.of the iighteous, that I
may enter, and praise the Lord." The doors being then
thrown open, the procession moved on, bearing the holy
rolls of the law under a crimson canopy; on reaching the
Fates leading to the ark, was chanted from the same
Psalm—" This is the gate of the Lord, the righteous
shall enter." On the rolls being deposited in the ark,
the reader, amending the desk, solemnly proclaimed the
consecration it? dne form, concluding with another verse
feam the above-quoted Psalm—" Blessed be he who corneth
in the mitre of' the Lord ; blessed be ye from the house of
Cr. Lord." The afternoon service then succee,sied, after
t:idwas sung an appropriate and impressive Hebrew
hymn, composed for the occasion, to which it would be im-
nosilde to do justice in a translation. The ark being now
.hrown open, the rolls of the divine law were carried round
-,;on seven times, the following Psalms being suc-
'tainted :-91, 30, 21, 84, 122, 132, and 100.
