II is given out that music in Italy is on the de-
cline, In consequence of the noisy and difficult
style introduced by Verdi. Certainly the decline,
if there be one, is here sufficiently accounted for.
Those who most delight in noise, must at some
time get weary by its too long continuance; the
human tympanum from being tickled comes to be
tortured, patience gives way, and the bombasc up
LITTER proves itself dead weight Much as people
delight Too, in Witnessing difficulties, real or imag
nary, overcome, these, when constantly returning
only to be again removed, exhaust the mind in its
efforts at apprehension. There is some philosophy
in philosophy likely to be exempli6ed in the
winding up of the sayings and doings Of pseudo
Abolitionists, who prosper in the way of acclama-
tons just SO long as noise electrify. Just so
long their excitable followers are ready to pay
infinite attention to the abstruse arguments that
to undo the evidences of common sense, and stae
the promptings Of patriotism. The decline of the
one will be like the decline Of the other. All the
figures Of rhetoric, set though with as much skill
as are Verdi's complicated notes. cannot long keep
up present attention, or save the sophistry of the
demagogues from the corrective judgment of those
whom they now reckon as their dupes.
