"A good story" says the Petersburg Express,
sis told of Commodore Stewart-Old Ironsides-
by the New York Sun, in connection with the dis
cussion to which the action of the Naval Board has
given rise. The merits and dement's Of the officers
of the navy being canvassed in the old Comma
dore's presence, and the decisicR of the Board in
many cases, shown TO be partial and unjust, he
broke in with this emphatic proposition; Let
them said he, equip three frigates of equal size
and armament and man two Of tham from among
those retained ON the active list, and give me the
third, to be manned with the retired, furloughed
and dropped, and III whip the two in an open sea
fight We would take even bet on the old Com
modore" sa
The story is good one, but we have strong
doubts whether it ever occurred. Commodore
Stewart is too brave man to deal in boasting.-
He is, moreover, too experienced sailor to init
mate, even in brag, the possibility of frigate
under any circumstances, whipping two of equal
size and armament We have no doubt that some
of the furloughed officers feel wolfish enough to
try such an encounter, reckless of the conse
quences, but they are hardly unwise enough te
say SO. ss'.s

Concert Of the Sacred Music Convention.
The first concert of this convention was given
In the First Baptist Church on Thursday evening.
and was well attended by the public. 1t was con-
ductod under the direction of Professor GEORGE
+. RooT, and that able musician, Mr.. DUNDER-
DALE, presided at the piano. The choir was COM
posed of about 100 singers, nearly all Of whom are
amateurs, and members of the church chors OF
Richmond and Manchester Solos, trios, quar-
tettes and choruses were sung. 1t is too much the
practice, in public notices of suchoccasons to be-
stow praise ON the performances without discrimi-
nation, and almost without moderation. We IN
tend now to state the simple truth when we say,
that the time observed by those 100 amateur la.
dies and gentlemen as perfect; that the harmony
OF the voices was excellent and that there was
feeling, and consequently, great impressiveness in
the style Some of the pieces We're peculiarly inter
estng, particularly the quartette beginning Hear
those soothing sounds ascending" in which the
whole choir unite in singing the word "Jubilate,
but 80 suhdued soft and tender was the chorus
strain, that many of the audience did not perceive
any addition 10 the voices in the quartette.
DIR. LOWELL MASON being called upon by the
President of the Convention, made a short and
feeling address, and afterwards united his voice in
the choruses-which was quite treat to the au-
dience
The whole performance ras concluded by sing
ing that sublime aiT 'Oh Hundred" not by Inc
choir oaly, aRt also by the entire audience stand
ng The effect was delightful
We cannot omit noticing the very able pleasing
and gentlemanly department of Mr.. RooE in the
conducting not only of this coneest oss Of all the
exercises of the convention his method of in
strlctng is plain, lucid AID interesting and he has
become during ais visits on this occasion and in
March last very popular.
A few members of the Richmond Sacred Music
Society have pledged themselves for the expenses
Of this convention, which will be heavy. They
have done so solely Scr the good of the of
cred music and consequently of religion Is it not
tie part of the public, by attending the concerts, to
prevent their sustaining any ossf
The last concert will be given tonight, and,
Judging from the performance of THURSDAY, de-
lightful treat may be expected
