STATIONS majority in the State 1905.
TnURLow WEED AND THE ABoLITIoNIsTs -
Thurlow Weed makes very pathetic appeal to the
abolition party Of this State to induce them to
out and abandon their candidate, Mr.. Birney, who
has been nominated to the Legislature Of Michigan
by the locofocos, and to vote for Mr.. Clay. We
think it would be much better for Thurlow to call
on the wings Of Oneida, Madison, Monroe, and
other counties in the interior and western pant of
this State 60 over hook and line to the abolition
lists and vote their Congressional tickets on the
condition that the abotionsts in return cast their
votes for Mr.. Clay. In this way ten or twelve
thousand of the abolition vote, of sixteen thousand
might be secured to the wings, just the "native'
vote was secured in Philadelphia. In this wayt the
wings might get majority of eight or ten thou
sand in the Empire State. Think Of that, Thurlow.
DANIEL WEBSTER AND HIS INFLUENCE Web
ster IS probably-somewhere altho' we don't ex-
actly know whether he returned to Marshfield yes
terday or goes thither to-day. Al all events his
recent movements in Pennsylvania have been all
the talk amongst his friends, and they affirm that
they have produced q great effect in favor of Mr.
Clay Well, really, making all proper allowances
for the intensity Of Mr. Websers talents, and look
ing at the results from that State, we are rather
puzzled to see the evidence of the wonderfully sal
utary effects Of Mr.. Webster's movements We
all know well enough what produced the local eff.
feet in Philadelphia. But in Pottsvie, Reading
and the other places where Mr.. Webster has been
at work, the locofoco majority seems considerably
augmented since 1910. This certainly don't say
much for Mr.. Webster's success.
OLE BuLL.-Ole Bull has been in town some
days, and we perceive that he gives concert on
Saturday evening next, at Niblo's. Ole Bull may
be called vlolin-poet He is hardly an artist, for
he is more creature Of impusive and impassioned
sentiment, than Of cold and systematic study
During his peregrinations last summer he was en-
gagged in perfecting composition which he calls
/" Niagara Falls" great deal of expectation
has been excited about it. But we perceive that in
the concert just alluded to-, he proposes to intro
duce a number of variations on old Irish and Scot
tlsh airs. Every one remembers the excitement
produced on his auditories by his improvisation,
as it may be called, on the violin, of 6 Yankee
Doodle," at the Park Theatre. If he improvises
the variations Of the Scottish airs, beginning with
one of those plaintive melodies which thrill every
heart, it will be of the richest and most org.
nal entertainments ever heard here in the way of
music
Apropos of the great voln-poet, we learn that a
few days ago select party was formed in this city,
of which Daniel Webster and John Jacob Astor
were members, and that Ole Bull played several
pieces in their presence, making an astonishing
impression 1t is said that he first played piece
Of lively and brilliant character, and that the ef
feet was SO great on Jshn Jacob that he laughed
outright like child. Immediately the great VIC.
linist changed the tune to a deeply plantive one,
and the feelings Of the aged millionaire were so
wrought upon that he was obliged to be conveyed
from the room, completely overcome As to Mr..
Webster. he stood it all, unmoved as one of the
granite mountains Of New Hampshire
A HERALD's COLLEGE IN AMERIcA.-We under.
stand that society OF gentlemen in this city be
longing to the elite, have made arrangements 10
open and establish Herald's College for the pur.
pose OF putting record the heroes, patriots. and
other distinguished individuals, from the time OF
Washington to the present day. The officers will
be, one President at Arms, one United States
Herald, one State Herald, and two Secretaries.
1t is designed to emblazon on the record the
arms Of each individual with the usual lineage,
the whole OF which will be published annually, az.
ter the style of the British Peerage.
This will not OF course be considered anti.re.
publican, inssmuch as every State in the Union
and every corporation has adopted armorial bear
ings, displaying them on their banners, in their
public records, and their seals. and this, by the
solemn sanction of established law.
Two gentlemen, thoroughly versed in tine art OF
Heraldry, are expected out from London to act as
Heralds. The New York aristocracy will please
to look up their documents. No cod fish can pass
MusicAL-Mr Gareau, the vloloncello player,
gave concert last evening at the Apollo Rooms
which was well attended. He was assisted BY
Signor Antognini and others. Mr.. Garreau is
fiaished performer, and Signor Antognini sang re-
maikably well.
Mr. Soman and his two accomplished daughters
continue to excite great sensation in Boston,
When are they corning this way?
Madame Otto's benefit last evening was brilliant
and bountiful.
Phillips gave his fret concert in Philadelphia las,
evening.
