MUsICAL--ANoTuEr EXCITEMENT. The break
ing up Of the recent Opera, by the cheat perpetrated
upon the public by the managers, is something which
happily is now beginning TO be forgotten by the
public. The changes, revolutions, and reconstruc-
iion-, in musical and theatrical affairs, are bring
ing back fashionable -uiienccs, and restoring the
good feeling which prevailed before the upper ten
made fools Of themselves.
Niblo is succeeding admirably in the Astor
Place Theatre, and will restore the character of
that establishment, so wofully maltreated by the
defunct Opera. Castle Garden, but for the cool
evenings would have been crowded and delight
ful-and it will be 30 very soon-while the other
theatres are getting along admirably. The old
opera troupe has been divided into two columns
one at Boston, the other at Philadelphia But
above all. the newspapers are giving accounts of
new musical meteor which has appeared in the
fashionable atmosphere of New York. 1t is a
young Pole, with an unpronouncable name
(Mauncc Strackgoch) who has made his appear
ance at Niblo's, and produced sensation in the
musical and fashionable circles, equal in every
respect to that created by any Of the previous great
artists who have appeared in this metropolis He
performs upon the same instrument which gave
such fciat to De Meyer and Herr; but according to
the accounts of all who have listened to him, this
young genius has his own originality, his own
his own peculiarites, both perso-
nal and artistical, which cannot fail to make him
quite the rage during the present season in New
York
We hear on all hands enquiries when he intends
to give public concert. We shall endeavor to
ascertain, and let the fashionable and musical
world know. He is the only musical wonder

and from the Bible how to practice them -
Those duties are 10 God, to your felow-crea-
lures, and to yourself Chou shalt love the
Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all
thy soul, and with all thy mind and with
all thy strength, and thy neighbor as myself"
On these two commandments, Jesus Christ ex-
pressly says, chang all the law and the proph-
cts" that's to say, the whole purpose of Divine
revelation is to incdlcate them efficaciously
upon the minds of men.
You will perceive that have spoken Of du-
ties TO yourself, distinct from those to God
and to your fellow-crea tures; while Jesus
Christ speaks only of two commandments
The reason is, because Christ and the command
ments repeated by him consider self love as so
implanted in the heart of every man by the
law of his nature, that it requires no command
ment to establish its influence over the heart;
and so graf do they know its power to be,
that they demand no other measure for the
love of our neighbor, than that which they
| know we shall have for ourselves. But from
the love of God and the love of our neighboI

and they are all 10 be learned in equal perfec-
ton by our searching the Scriptures. Let US
then, search the Scri Ptures; and in order to pur-
sue our inquiries with methodical order, let Us
consider the various sources Of information
that We may draw fromin this study.
The Bible contains the revelation of the will
of God. 1t contains the history of the creation
of the world and of mankind; and afterward the
history of one peculiar nation, certainly the
most extraordinary nation that has ever ap
peared upon the earth. 1t contains system o
religion, and of morality, which we may ex
anime upon its own merits, independent of the
sanction it receives from being the Word o
God; and it contains numerous collection o
books, wrttenat different ages Of the world, by
different aut .ors, which we may survey as Gu
rious monuments of antiquity and as literary
/. compositions in what light so ever we re
, gard it, whether with reference to revelation
to literature, TO history, or to morality-it i:

ssTHIS Is THE END OF EARTH
.'This is the end ofeartnl" its pomp and glory,
It's vain ambition and Its lust of power,
Serve but to point the moral of life's story,
Where man, at last, meets his appointed hour
Then from the closing eye each earthly vision,
With all its fair alIurements, fades away;
And the soul shudders at the dread transition
From sentient being into lifeless clay. e
There is the end of earthr-in lifes gay morning,
Buoyant with hope, enter on the scene;
The path seems strewed with flowers; we heed nc
warning
Breathed from the lips of age, on what hath been:
Onward we chase the glittering phantom. pleasure,
And its attainment eagerly we crave;
Yet when we grasp the taithess, feeting treasure,
WHAT'S the end! the cold and darksolne grave.
Glowing with loyeliness, the joyous maiden
Beholds no cloud upon her youths bright sky;
Each winged fancy is with gladness laden;
She teelsnot-d dreams not-that she soon must die
In one brief hour, her radient form is blighted-
A thing of dread to all of mortal birth;
The loving hearts her presence once delighted,
Shrink back appalled-such is the end of Earth.
The happy mother, tenderly caressing
The smiling babe that nestles on her breast,
In fancy sees him of her age the blessing,
Whose duteous love shall soothe her final rest.
Alas! his rosy lips cen are fading;
His azure eyes no longer beam with mirth;
The lived hue his fair young face pervading,
Marks him deaths prey--''Oh, cruel end of earth.
This is the end of earth!''--The ardent soldier,
At honor's call, from his loved home departs
His bones upon a foreign soil will moulder,
And he be mourned alone, by broken hearts
The King upon his throne, the peasantlowly,
The hero, patriot, sage, must yield to DEATH
He is the common conqueror--surely- slowly,
Blossom and bud are withered by his breath.
Oh what were life. were this, indeed the ending
Of all the holy ties that bind US here?
Or what could soothe our sad despair, when bending
Above the turf where sleep the young and faira
How vain the hopes and fears The heart now moving
Were there no home beyond the-bounds of earth,
Where we could meet again, beloved and loving,
The cherished ones torn from the household hearth
Go seek the chamber where the good man, dying,
Endures with trust in God, the last dread strife;
Behold, while anguished ones are round him isghing
How calmly he yields up his well spent life
Death is his gain Earth from his view recedng,
Faith reigns triumphant in his aged breast;
And white-robed angels hitherward are speeding,
Gently to bear him to his heavenly rest.

o-The Buffalo Courier. Democratic

OCS The Buffalo Courier, Democratic pa
per, has the following sensible and impartial
remarks relative to Mr.. Clay.
BY the testimony of both Wings and Demo
Gratis, it would appear that the journey of Mr..
CLAY through the principal cities. has been
more like a triumphant march than a mere
manifestation of respect and regard fos pri-
vate citizen. No person will regret that it has
been so, and his progress has probably been
hailed with as much pleasure and sincerity
BY his political opponents, as by his friends
Republics, then, are not ungrateful. The
people are ever ready, without regard to ole
party differences or personal considerations, tc
tender their homage to an ilustrous citizen
who having served his country faithfully, ac
cording to his convictions of duty, withdraws
TO private life and reposes upon his honors
Mr.. CLAY may well be proud of national res
pect and gratitude. History hardly records
parallel instance, and our generation will no
witness another.
