THE GOLD IN IOWA-SCARCE.
Vi
Philadelphia, Jl

Correspondence of The N. Y. Tribune
KFoKuK, Iowa, May 81, 1853.
Whoever comes to Iowa in the hope of making
a speedy fortune will do foolish thing, and will prob
ably regret his rsshness for some time to come Ad-
NIT that there gold scattered through the State, and
there now seems to be donbt Of it, yet remains to
be proved that any man can make even bare living
by digging. In spite Of the rumors about $500
humps the most reliable information from all parts of
the State up to this date shows concusvey that gold
10 found only in very minute particles with rare e1-
ceptlors and that the diggings will not or, at least
do not pay. Thus far the Spring has been uncom-
monty wet, all the streams are very high. and heavy
rains still continue If gold shall be found in paying
quantities it will only be after the subsistence of the
streams, and your readers must remember that when
dry times come in Iowa they come ia earnest. Many
of the streams will vanish, and the digger will have
to dig for water as well gold.
decidedly, it is too soon yet for poor man to rush
to the dig ;iDgs, whatever may be the outcome. l
nave seen number of persons attracted hither by the
reports published in THE TRIBUNE and other papers,
and in every case after getting all the inform ,on aud
readiI the reports from the interior which could
furnish them, they have uniformly regretted their
rahnes Goldhunters had better wait awhile longer,

WHO SHALL RULE-THE POLICE OR
THE NEWSBOTS!

To the Editor Of The ". y. Tribune.
SIR: The Police authorizes of our city have issued
An oder requiring policemen to suppress the crying OF
newspapers on Sunday TO a gratifying extent this
order has had tine effect to abate the acknowledged
nuisance and our citizens have enjoyed more quiet in
their homes during the past three Sabbata than for
fifth OF century before. But, stimulated by tn, Sun
cay Press the spirit Of resistance to our authorities
mabes SIS itself among the uewsboys, and the question
is likely to be contested whether few hundred awless
urchips TO have the monopoly of noise and traffic
ON the LoIds Day or not. If they may, and if it
should appear that there is not force enough in
police system to down such an evil, pray what We
curly can there against thoss more secret deproda
tons the nights OF citizens, to which every great
city is exposed And Whist alternative will there be
but self protection fight
We pIesxme however thst it is the intention Of the
police TO enforce the order of the General Superin-
tendent in due time, and that the delay is designed
simply to afford adequate opportunity for warning the
boys. The Commissioners and their subordnates can
not only feel assured of the support of orderly citizens
in their efforts to abse this nuisance, but that they
will demand its suppression. 1t has been endured
quite too long,

FOREST MELODY.

A CANTATA BY GEORGE HENRY CURTIS.
csntata differs from oratorio, in far as is,
or ought TO be- set to words not taken from the Bible
havir special religious character 1t is comp osed
Of various pieces of vocal musc-solos duets, tros,
chorusses, &c. the subject of each piece having, II
properly constructed, some connecting link with the
preceding one, and all of them forming progressive
whole. Haydns Seasons ful6s these conditions OF
cantats in the way that his Creation does those
of an oratorio. The cantata or orators may or msy
not have dramatis persona; when it aims to DO
dramatic TO that extent, it is in so far simply feeble
The only place where dramatic vocal music can be rem
dered is the STAGE
The ordinary fault 4 the words Of this species of
ocmposition-the canta,s and orstorio-is deficiency
of emotional or passionate intensity, without which
musc becomes fiat and mechanical. Indeed, much OF
the language set to the music OF orstoros has about the
same interest, for lyrical purposes as the words oil
sberfs advert sement. The result Is, the audience
either goes to sleep thns out as the performance
proceeds.
8lr. Curtis, in the choice of his words fer cantata,
has shown taste and scholarship by avoiding the sup
posttous dramstis persone-where tbs actors. having
nothing TO do. do il. His tex. is Forest Melody Sc
lected from the poem of Bryant. There Is g good
deal Of variety in the subject and but little IN tie
measure Of the verses-it being ismbic. tn goo1
rule 10 composing music never to select wcrds-tae
beet wo,ds uust be written specially, with ever-is-
curing variety Of ri! tbmus But that spst, AIR.
Cults has taken the stabzas as he found them, anc
set them naturally and gracefully to music. The con-
portion VS., we suppose, written specially Tor Df'
GU metz, who takes the leading psTt assisted by Ve
soprano and contrao voices. There are no cnoru'ses
or other voices. The accompaniment IS tor the P.no
