Grand 1IusIeaI Fe.tiraI.

On the 3lst ult. great musical festival
was held in the Crystal Palace in London,
which is thus described by the Times:
yesterday the yearly choral meeting
of the Tonic Sofia Association-noW
one of the great autumnal events at Syden-
ham-attracted upwards OF twenty four
thousand visitors to the Crystal Palace
The spectacle presented 70 the Handel
orchestrs was most animated and interest
ing. The choir consisted Of five thousand
voices, principally of young persons and
children, but including one thous-
and tenors and bases. The first
part, devoted to sacred music, contained
the Gloria IN ElreelsEs, from Mozarts
Twelfth Mass Dr. Crofts HCry alound and
shout" SSee the conquering hero comes"
from GJudas MaccabRus, and various
hvmns and anthems. The secular pieces
included, among others, Mr.. Hiekson's
aBells are Ringing" TO the tune of 'Caller
Herring the Escape from the city" Flc-
tow; Hail to the chief" Bishop; the Blue
Bells of Scotland" arranged by Neithardti
DIR. Arne's a Which is the properest day 70
sing;H and the sSkyiariSs song" a canon
1 by Mendelsohn, G
1t was delightful to hear so many fresh,
pure, sweet and young voices (unaccom-
panied by instrumental musie) and 10 OBJ
serve the precision with which they fol
lowed every indication of the conductor
baton Not the least pleasing feature Of
the concert was the evident delight which
the young singers took in their music. The
enthusiasm of the audience was manifested
by loud piaudits and repeated encores
The Tonic Sofia method has made 80 mucl
way by reason of its eheapness, truth anC
simplicity, that sbo-t two hundred thou
sand pupils, young and old, are said TO b
under its instruction ut the present mo
lnent. The singers yesterday were for tn
greater part, brought from the variou
Sunday and day schools in and near tn
metropolis. The msjority were, perhaps
the children of the humber classes an
those who believe that music in school
and families may be made powerful agen
in developing and elevating the feehni
and sentiments Of children could not bu
be gratifed to hear them sing the devotion
al strains of Mozart's services, the fine ol
cathedral anthems of English composer
and the part-songs of Mendelssohn, Cal

General Wadsworth.

A writer in the Evening Post has given
some anecdotes of General Wadsworth
which deserve 10 be recorded. Three weeks
ago he saw the General in his camp near
Culpepper, preparing his division for the
field. He had the reputation of taking
good care of his men. At this time the
writer heard him relate the following CAPT
tai story, which shows the spirit of the man
better than volume of biographical COM
ment:
II remember, during the march through
Maryland, before the battle Of South Noun
tain, we passed over a tract of country ex-
tremely rugged and stony, and 1 saw not
only men but officers walking along with
bleeding feet. The mems shoes gave out
entirely. 1t hurt my feelings more than 1
can tell you, to see the poor fellows trudge
along so. We came to a town on the line
of march, and I, who was riding at the
head Of the column, spurred ahead to see
if there were not some shoe stores where /
could purchase what we needed for the men.
All the shops were closed he frstt men
saw were two sitting outside closed shop.
Are there any shoe stores In this
town p 1 asked. They replied. in gruff
way, that they could not tell-there might
be and there might not. 1 told them l
wanted to buy shoes for my troops, who
were barefooted. They replied they guess
ed wouldn't get many.
cat this" said the General, Il got an
CRY. Said I, there are two pairs of shoes,
at any rate. which I see, on your feet.
Take them off instantly shouted to them.
They were obliged to oft. went through
the town, and took the shoes off every mans
feet could see and thus 1 raised about
two hundred pairs in all. One fine old fell
low. miller. whom met, 1 did not de-
prive Linn of his own pair rode up to
him and asked if he had any shoes be could
spare me, describing the pitiable condition
of my men. The old man said 4 don'l
know if there's any shoes in the house oil
not. but, looking down at his feet, there's
pair you're welcome to at any rate
would not let him take them off, but he
gave me some from his house. All the
rest stripped"

From the N. Y. Times
The Raid of the Black Troopers.

/ The cavalry brigade. commanded by Col.
West, consisting of Capt. Hill's company
of the First New York Mounted Rifles, and
the First Colored United States Cavalry,
Colonel Garard, and Second Colored United
States Cavalry, Colonel Cole, arrived here
to night. They return from a raid on the
Peninsula, which has put the black regi-
ments on their mettle for the FIRST time,
and demonstrated them to be made of ster-
ling stuff Starting from Williamsburg on
| Thursday morning last, when this expedi-
ton was sent out from Fortress Monroe,
they galloped up to the Pamunky, stopping
at the White House, meeting little opposi-
ton except few guerillas, aud returned to
Williamsburg the next evening. On Sat
urday morning they went out second time,
travelling over nearly the same ground, and
meeting a great deal of opposition. The
bushwhackers turned out i'll force to annoy
them-these rascals attacking them from
coverts at every step of the way. But tri
fling obstacles of this sort did not deter the
troopers from reaching the Chickahominy.
which they crossed some distance south of
Bottoms Bridge, having to swim their hors-
es across the stream Indeed all the bridg-
es over the water courses of the Peninsula
horses was the common way of crossing.
Whenever the raiding party appeared the
inhabitants were struck dumb with fear,
which is not to be wondered at, when it is
considered what an Internal noise 1000 ne
gro threats can add in the way of cheering
to the clatter of 5000 hoofs, when threats
and hoofs and all are hidden in an envelop-
ing of dust. At the Chickahominy the
rebels had thrown up redoubt, from be-
hind which they opened a musketry fire.
The proper disposition Of forces was made,
and the negroes had the satisfaction of
chasing the traitorous chivalry out of the
work. Three of the rebels were left dead,
and several were wounded. During the
raid FIVE Of the colored soldiers were killed,
and fifteen or twenty wounded; but il is
thought that the bushwhackers paid dearly
for this loss. On the way up the Peninsu
la, various army signal stations of the rebels
were destroyed.
This afternoon the entire body of cavalry
reached the James river, at Harrison's
Landing. and were brought up to this place
on steamers. They seemed full of energy as
they disembarked, Notwithstanding their
long ride, and ask TO be sent to the front to-
morrow. l learned these facts from Maio
Brown. of one of the regiments, who says
that the conduct of the blacks was excellent
throughout the raid, and that their officers,
after this practical test of their endurance
and fighting qualities. would lead them any
where. 1 do not think l Rave ever seen
prouder and more selfreliant men than these
black troopers appeared to be as they stepped
from the boats tonight, in their dusty
blouses and ragged blue pantaloons, each
clanking his sabre and jiugling he's brazen
spurs.

Can Make their NIark.

When the Seventh Kansas was stationed
at Corinth with the Ninth Illinois Infantry,
guarding the railroad at that point, Ma
jor-a paymaster from the army of Potomac
was there trahsaeting soma business ia
that district. During his stay he became
on intimate terms with the men and officers
of the Seventh and Ninth. With Col. Jesse
Phillips, of the Ninth Illinois, he was very
familiar. 8 aIarssh
While engaged in conversation one day
with the Colenel, he remarked - $500
Colonel, have been, since my advent
here, close observer of western men
have observed their rude manners, disgust
ing and filthy customs, and more particular
ly their ignorance. Well, sir, it is an &C.
tual fact that not more than one third of the
men can read and write; two-thirds Of them
have TO make their mark" -TaEsls zifvs-T
The Colonel drew his hand slowly across
his high and sunburnt forehead, eyed the
Major closely, and said ''You statement.
sir, regarding Western men may be true in
many respects; but, sir, while you men in
tie Army of the Potomac have been living
in luxury aud making mastery advances on
Washington, by Cd, we Western men
have been making our marks" r7. s6E
The Major smet mice, and was silent
on the merit and demerit of the two sections
of the country during the remainder of his
stay in that Department.

Our PRISONERS IN RIcHMoND.-Consid-
ering the scarcity of provisions in the be-
leagured city of Richmond, the Prospectfor
our poor fellows held as prisoners there is
gloomy. But there is some comfort in this
fact that by exchanges and by removals to
North Carolina and Georgia, the number of
prisoners in Richmond, which few months
ago was from twelve to fifteen thousand,
has been reduced 10 about fifteen hundred,
exclusive of the additions from the late bat
ties. That these unfortunate men will be
the first in the rebel capital to starve,
in the event of protracted struggle for
it's possession, from all that we know OF
the horrors of Libby Prison, cannot be
doubted. General Grant and General But
Ter, we presume, SO understand it, and will
push vigorously on with their work until
the inmates of the Libby are changed from
blue jackets to gravy z. Herald.

liquors in the army. in late speech:

went into an officers quarters the first thing
was to offer you something to drink. 1t

proper respect if you did not. I fell into
the habit. I drank whisky and offered it
to others. When l was stationed in Flori-
da, once offered whisky to an officer and
he declined. urged him to drink AMI he
drank. A short time after attended him
in the horrors of delirium tremens, and /
made up my mind that it was wicked. and
that would never do it again; and have
not I do not keep it in my quarters or
my tent. do not offer it to any officer or
to any man, and 1 will not. know it is a
hard stand to take, especially for a young
officer; but can say from my own expe-
rience that it will pay.

Enthusiastically received wherever he went,
the General rode boldly on, and passing
from the left 10 the right wing, lost his

A traveller, writing from Illinois, states
that in getting to the place of his destina-
ton, he experienced all kinds of go-a-head-
itiveuess. In the first place he took steam
boat-in the second, the railroad-in the
third, a mail coach-the fourth, rode on
horse back-the fifth, went six miles of
Terra Haute-and was Finally rode out of
the village on rail. He says he don't
know which to prefer out of the six, but he
thinks the latter method is unquestionably
the cheapest, though its accommodations are
most wretched.
