The Vanderbilt Heard From About

The Vanderbilt Heard From About
France ana the ''COnfederacy."
New YORK, Sept. ga letter from Bahia
Aug. 20 report that the Vanderbilt and Mohi-
can were there.
The Courier DIES Etats Unis gives a cate
gorical denial to the rum)rs of French recog-
milton of the South. 1t says 1.-THE question
has not come before the imperial government
in any shape, nor has it any connection with
the emperor'S Mexican designs. The regency
of Mexico asked for his views in regard to the
course to be pursued by them towards the
southern confederacy, and he advised them to
postpone all action. This is the foundation Of
the stories in the English papers"

power of such self-rghtous neutral" We
do not want war with her, and it is our pur-
pose to keep the peace if possible; but she has
quite as much reason to dread such war as
we, and will be quite as anxious to avoid it.
The wish to avoid war, mingled, perhaps,
with some doubt in regard to the designs of
France, has caused change of her neutral
policy, so far as relates to sending fleets of
rebel war vessels from her ports.

MUSICAL CONVENTION. - The Worcester
county musical convention, commencing on
Tuesday, Sept. 20, bids fair to be one of the
best musical gatherings ever convened in this
city. All who know Prof. Frost (and what
lover of music here does not,) will acknow-
ledge that he stands at the head in creating
enthusiasm. We notice by their advertise
ments that some of the most prominent of the
Mozart society are to take an active part IN
the convention, and whose names alone are
sufficient guarantee Of generous attendance
friend at oar elbow suggests that to hear
Mr.. Mills one evening on the piano is worth
more than the cost of membership.

faction of knowing that their slight fee of adj
mission tends by 80 much to reduce the debt
of the society. When free from embarrass

disposition to hold out inducements that can
not fail to make the hall regular and charm
ing resort for all of our citizens. And as
inquiry is sometimes made relative to the
mode of joining the society, it may be not
amss to add that a simple application to the
secretary, coupled with the payment of three
dollars by gentlemen and one dollar by ladies,
is all that is essential.
