burg having returned from his third scientific
exploration of our Western country, in the
course of which he added largely to his col
lections in Botany, Zoology and Mineralogy,
sumo days since sailed for the Straits of Ma
gellan and Patagonia, for the purpose of ex-
pIoring the extremity of the South Americ an
continent. The undertaking is bold enc
the chief dangers Of which are from the sava-
ges and want of food, against both of which
he goes as we'll provided as possible.

CoNTINUED-On Friday Mr.. Isaac A. Goddn
preferred complaint of trespassing, before his
Honor, against Daniel Boaz and Thomas Granger
watchmen He stated that about IL o'clock on
Thursday evening, MIR Boaz rung the bell of his re-
sidence, corner of Grace and 9th Streets and upon
answering the summons, told him (Mr g. that
some of his neg roes had been impairment and used
abusive language towards himself and partner Mr.
Granger and that if Mr. Goddin did not stop it, and
it occurred again, he (Boaz) would shoot them
Mr. G stated that Granger was skulking in an alley
near the corner, and that he had reason to believe
that the action of these watchmen towards his
slaves was the result of personal pique-that Gran
ger had taken offence with his (Mr G.'s) recent &C
ton concerning some property, in which he Gran
ger) was interested, and not long since-as h. be
lieved the records of the watch house would prove
had arrested one of his (Goddin's) negroes
named William, at ten minutes of 10 O'Clock, when
he had pass to be out until 10 O'Clock, and con
veyed him to the cage. The Mayor then stated
that he would examine into the affair.
Saturday morning the Mayor, after calling the
two watchmen before him, apprized Boaz of the
direct chsrge!msde against him, and Mr. Granger, Of
the implied one against him. The charge was a
to guard the lives and property of men during the
night, and he should have it properly investigated
He felt it due to the confidence which the people of
the town reposed in their guardians without en-
tering all into the merits of the case, giving
any decision whatever upon ito suspend watch
man Boaz from the performance of his regular
duties until the charge against him should be pro-
perry investigated. This morning he would enter
into the examination, and should expect watchmen
Boaz and Granger and Mr. Goddin to be present.
and to have the whole affair laid open for scrutiny
and Judgment. He desired also that Captain Will
kinson and as many of the watchmen could con.
veniently be in attendance should be present this
morning, as he intended to lay down some rules
for their guidance in the matter of entering the
dwellings of private citizens at late hour of the
night.

Mrs EMMA G. BosTwIcK's CoNcERr-The con
cert given by this talented and charming lady at
the African Church. ON Thursday evening last,
more than equalled the expectations of the Assem-.
bly, gathered to do honor to native American mu
steal genius. Mrs. 3 possesses voice of grea,
sweetness, fexibility and compass. Her chromatic
runs ard trills are graceful and remarkably true
and her crescend0 ana diminuendO of the most fin.
ished character. In the caUatiaa, tour faith then
foudly phghting," the vivacity and gushing fervor
and intensity of the love Of maid of"Itaa," were
finely portrayed. The ''song of Home," with its
paintve, touching appeal to our fondest, earliest
recollections, suffused gentle melancholy over
the thought portions
of it lacked psthos in delivery.
The Sacred Bracurd was one of the gems of the
evening, and was sung in the most exquisite and
finished manner Mr. Seide one of the best iutists In
America, accompanied Mrs. B. in this soul absorb.
ing recitation, and at times the zephyr strains of
the fair songstress and the instrument combined,
perfectly entranced the heart with their charming,
spiritual melody.
Mrs. B. unquestionably achieved musical tri.
umph on Friday evening. Of the merits of the
other performers, Mr.. Henri Apply, solo violinist
Herr Thilow, solo pianist; and la petite Miss Oil
yer, the young and astonishing player on the con.
cer;ina, we have not space to speak in extended
terms. They performed in the most artistic and
skilful manner This evening MIS-. Bostwck will
give her second and last concert at the African
Church, with an entire change of programme. We
trust that she will have an overlooking house.

extraordinary merit. He was born In Prague, Bo.

was strong; hebecame q musician naturally from
the pure instructive love OF the art, and simply be
cause he could not help it. At the early age OF
years he performed In public at Lyons, compost.

he also played by turns, the Violin, Oboe. Kettle
Drum, violincello, etc Before the age of IL years
he had written for the theatre several grand balles
and in 1905, he composed an opera in honor of Ma
poleon, called 7rqjan. The opera was successful.
~ performed, and Napoleon, pleased and surprised
at Bochsa's musical precociy, sent him to study at
| the Paris Conserratoire. Bochss made good use Of
his extraordinary advantages, and the harp being
the fashionable instrument of the day. took it under
his patronage and became the greatest Harpist in

the Empress Josephine, the Empress Marie Louise,
Queen Victoria and thousands of the European NO.

wondrously busy public life, he has found time to
compose innumerabie Ballots, Operas, Symphonies,
Overtures, Sacred works, ETC., etc., besides nearly
1000 pieces for the Harp His public career has
brought him into contact with all the musical and
other celebrities of the past and present century,
and detailed account OF his lite, his "reminiscences
OF the past, and his thoughts upon the present,

MADAME BISHOPS Concerts, always delicious,
