The Worcester .Fgis shares in the Henry
Wilson phohia, and says:-"It is unpleasant
to think that circumstances obliged us to vote
the same presidential ticket with him" There
are some people who would rather go to hell
without the General than to accompany him
to Heaven; so unable are they to do right,
unless all the people they dislike shall do
wrong.-Sprinafeld Repnbiean.

THt man sits under the
majestic ministry of one of heavens noblest
thunder storms, and the lightning flashes as

what to say of Thalberg's performance last
evening. 1t so far surpassed any piano play.
ing we ever heard or dreamed of, and so Jar
transcended our ideas of the capacity of the
instrument, that we could only wonder and
enjoy. The gentleman, as he came upon the
stage, certainly did not look like the genius
and the artist he certainly is. A man of com.

snobbishness or pretension, he sits down to
the piano, and runs through the brief intro
duction of his fingers to the keys. Then lie
commences, gets gradually towards his theme,
and, when he has found it, grasps it like the
master that he is, and wrings from it, through
multltudinous changes, its whole meaning
There is no form conceivable in which he does
not present it to his audience. Elaborate to
the utmost, it is all without apparent labor
With magnihcence and largeness of concep-
ton, that embraces his whole subject, as a
grand unity, he is still the perfect artist that
leaves 10 detail unfinished. While the whole

ness Of toliage-are in his eye, not leaf is
passed by that does not receive its veins and
serration to its trembling tip
M. Thalberg was encored at the close of
both parts of the concert. For his first en-
core he played "Sweet Home with varia-
tons that caused a gentleman at our side to
remark that he had no idea that home was SO
sweet, before. The grand secret Of his play
ing, or rather Of its effect upon the audience,
is, that his soul is in it. His instrument be-
comes sympathetic under his touch The
music breathes from it in continuous roll of
harmony, and the listener, borne upon it's
waves, gives himself up to their sweet mercy.

IN coMM1rrEE OF THE WHOLE.


AT the conclusion of the doings of both Boards
of the City Council on Saturday evening, the
members went into Committee of the Whole, in
the Common Council Room. George NJ Rice
Esq, President of the Common Council, after its
dissolution, called upon Alderman Wall to take
the Chair, who, after some reluctance, consent
ed so to do, greatly to the satisfaction and
amusement of all concerned. Samuel Hathaway,
Esq, Of military honors, 1--WE forget his tile was
chosen Clerk, and then that august body, con-
sisting of members OF the City Council, and vari.
GUS officers OF the City Government, together
with the ponderous Alderman elect from Ward l,
who was invited to seat (not on the hay scales,
within the bar, Ito say nothing of the reporter
entered into solemn conclave on fun, frolic, and
nonsense, generally, at the expense of the City
Government, concluding at late hour. Much
fun poked at the city for refusing to pay its
rum bills and huge variety of other matters
were discussed, but the injunction of secresy
has not yet been removed owing to the constitu-
tional inability Of the Clerk to amend his record
of the proceedings, (Which, according to his re.
port, as read by him, were outlandsh in the ex.
treme,) we defer publishing, for the present. any
report of the doiugs.
