must be granted that congregation, in q
mass, will seldom be able to comprehend
all that is aimed at by wclltrained
choir. Before such choir, there Is HI
image Of perfection, to which every advance
has distinct reference. On the. other
hand, there is no such irnagc-no mental
conception. which shall serve to explain tile
drift and final purposes Of the present effort
TO them all is darkness and mist at the very
next step forwards. Hence arises i,npa-
tiencc, then doubt, and then censure. The
choir makes progress but it takes tim. to
know what that progress means and ma
ny are unwilling to suspend their Judgment
long enough to gain the correction of their
misapprehensions. They are in haste to
Judge; and would recommend that they
should have some acquaintance with elc.
n'entory principles, at least, rs n PRIMARY
qualification, before they eypire to the of:
flee of critic. And finally, let the incom-
pctent, first Of all, go seriously and earnest.
y into the study of the scieiicc in which
others have made themselves profcienis
and in the meantime not disturb the course
which things arc taking under the direction,
of experienced minds. Let them seek nf
ter high mpdtls, and take ample care tl,a,
those models, in all their beautiful and pcr.
feet Iineaments, are wildly impressed on
their imagnations and affections. Will,
doing this. they will discover many points
of attractiveness in music which once re-
PEELED them. At all events, they will gai,
socl, an insight into the feelings Of those
who have preceded them in the field of re-
search, as will Thoroughly cure them Of the

Death of Joel Smith, ESQ.

Mr.. SMITH died Of inflammation of the
bowels on the night of the 18th instant, at
Stony Point. His death was quite sudden
and unexpected, even to his relatives. Mr..
Smith was, during his whole life, cbarac-
ter'zed, in remarkable degree, by great
practical abilities high toned moral char
scter, with more than ordinary lenity to-
ward the poor and such as needed his assist
ance. He leaves many friends and relatives
to pay final and just tribute to departed
worth.
