MUSIC.

NEW BALLAD Music—still continues to catcu
the public ear, and, at welcome intervals, to chttrul
the public taste—through the indefatigable agencY
of the Messrs. Cocks and Company, of New Bur-
lington street. Charles Mackay's National Song.,
" There's a Land, a Dear Land"—words and mole
both his own—we can never tire of—coming bale
to our hearts, as it does, with the penetrating
warmth of the patriotic ardour inspiring i
tts
all our
everf
note and word. How directly it appeals o
nobler sentiments of civism, the words of the seal
will, of themselves, suffice to
apart from the melody,
there merely of a siagld
indicate, by the excerp

stanza :--
There's a land,
hts a de
lthe free,
and,
Where the rig of
Though firm as the earth
Are as wido as the sea ;
Where the primroses bloom,
And the nightingales sing,
And the honest poor man
Is as good as the king.
Flowery, Showery,
Tearful, Cheerful,
England wave guarded and green to the shore
West Land, Best Land,
Thy Land, My Land,
Glory be with hor and peace evermore.
" Sweet Philomel," written by Mrs. Wm. gll%
composed by A. Leduc, is a pretty little ditty 3°„
unworthy of the author of " Jenny of the
Herr Meyer Lutz has composed expressly for
the
Louisa Pyne (and it is high praise to add that
tea
ballad is worthy of interpretation by that gifou
artiste) a song entitled " A Sigh went Floating
_z
the Breeze." Besides which, the inexhaustible Vrtrat
Abt has given us a song about' Bonnie g•atile"
may rank with his best.

E , OLUNTEERS.—The London Scottish a
the 19th Middlesex have just terminated a rifie Ina:::
which has been shot at the Epsom range. The Aril: -Or;
ment was that ten of each rank of one corps should ..,.
against a similar number of the other, thus—ten o00,,e1:0
ten non-commissioned officers, and ten privates. 'lci ts
scores were :—Officers of the 19th, 383 points ; 1-',°%°,33
Scottish, 378. Non-commissioned officers of 19tm,"„
points ; London Scottish, 438. privates of 19th, 429 ; -'-'-1
.don Scottish, 409. Thus there was a majority on the todtotitt
scores of ten points in favour ofthe 19th. The 14°,13„,,,at,
Scottish had the disadvantage of having two Men a"---
but the lowest scores were allowed for there.

At the Paris Bourse this morning, according to
Reuter's telegram, the 3 per Cent. Renters opened
at 69f. 77c. _ _

Rather less firmness is apparent in the English
Stock Market to-day, some uneasiness having pre-
vailed in consequence of the failure of a " jobber"
and the supposed difficulties of a firm who have not
been able to meet their liabilities in full. Consols
have closed at 911 I for money, and at 91 5-16th
7-16th for the account, being * flatter.
The New Three and Reduced Annuities are 891

while Erie Shares remain steady at 391 ; and
Illinois shares 771 78.
Great depression has prevailed in the Railway

been of an important character. Metropolitan have
declined 1 ; Great Eastern and South Eastern each
1 ; Great Western, Lancashire and Yorkshire,
Brighton, and North Western, each 1; ; Great
Northern A Stock, 11 ; Midland, 11; and North

count Company at 121.
