The vague illusions Of the Report TO what the
Super ntendent speaks of As IAN unfortunate
circumstance in the early period in the his
tory Of the work, - 50 notifying" to him
and 4" disastrous to the interests Of the Com
monwealth, and some other remarks which,
perhaps, have a ike reference, are out Of tae
range of good taste and propriety in an Off
cial report. II Dr.. Powers wanted TO find
fault with any body, he should at least have
given names and some distinct statement OF
what he complained Of.
1t seems, from the Report Of Gov. Hall,
that, thus far, "no legislative provision has
been made prescribing the compensation Of
the Superintendent, " and the Superintendent
says that, thus far, he has received no com
pensation for his time, labor and expenses
while in charge # the work. Gov. Hall
recommends that an act should be passed for
the Superintendent's proper remuneration.
The fact that no provision whatever was
made for that expense in the act providing
for his appointment lis one proof, Of many, Of
the disreputable hurry and looseness with
which the passage of that act was attended.

TIE WESTERN VERMONT MUSI-
CAL ASSOCIATION.

The Sixth Convention Of this Association
closed successfully at Mddlebury on Friday
last. The Association (as we have had occa-
sion to remark before,) is well managed, by
its capable President and other officers, and
1t gives US great pleasure to note its contin
ued and increasing success. We copy the
following account of the proceedings from
the Nli-dlebury Register -
The Convention commenced, on Tuesday,
as previously announced under the direction
of Prof B. +. Baker, Of Boston, and closed
on Friday Evening with public Concert
The number in attendance was quite large,
probably greater than at any previous meet
ing. The exercises were Principally the
practice Of vocal music. mostly sacred, and
the transaction Of necessary business.
The efforts of Prof. Baker We're directed to
the correction Of prominent faults in tone,
manner and in the drill requisite to the ac-
complishmcnt of this object he has no supa-
no
He cannot tolerate the careless, sing-sonc,
heIrtless manner performance 50 common
with superficial musicians, but strives 20
impress upon his pupils the important truth
that one cannot sing well, what be does not
thoroughly feel, and distinctly appreciate
The heart must be warmed, animated and
aroused the soul must be attuned in har-
m0ny with the sentiments embodied in the
music and language, or the singing will be
vapid and lliele-s.
Prof. Baker possesses rare faculty of en-
forcing this thought practically be Is wide
awake, firm and almost stern, but kind,
courteous and pleasant. Even the sarcasns
in which he occasionally indulges are SO i'm
pregnated with good humOr that they leave
no wound but render 1t evident that he seeks
the most effective weapons with which Ia
drive singers from the fortifaations Of evil
habits
Mrs Minnie Little, the accomplished vo-
calist, has a voice OF great compass, power,
purity, fexi5ility and sweetnoss and her
unaffected manner adds a charm 10 her ac
complishments which wins theadmiration Of
all. Some of the city singers. who occasion
allv visit US, try 50 hard to look pretty that
they become repu sive, but Mrs. Little looks
cbarIningly because she can't help 1t.

suing year were as follows:
