WHAT AN EAR We find the follow
ing choice bit of musical criticism in
the Vermont Chronicle. Its correspond
ent has been describing the Commence
ment exercises at Middlebury College,
and thus proceeds to vent his feelings in
regard to the music:
Everything was remarkably pleasant
If we except the instrumental music.
The first day band played marches,
and other appropriate pieces. The last
day some violin and tenor violin players
squeaked, sawed, agonized and ggered
out what was probably called opera mu-
sic consisting of snatches of old songs
and gigs and universal buzzes, disgrace
ing the place and insulting the audi
ence. Give us no music, or give us
something appreciable and enjoyable.
Singing accompanied with organ or me-
lodeon, or other harmonious instrument,
is enough for inside music"
Most of our readers will be able to
appreciate the above, when we add that
the gigs" and "buzzes" were by the
Mendelssohn Quintette Club Of Boston.
We need say nothing more,-BwIington

The FRENCH PRESS AND THE MExI-
CAN QUEsTIoN.-The arrival in France
OF the Empress of Mexico has brought
the subject of French interests in that
country prominently into discussion by
the press. A leading Paris paper says
that the demand of the Empress is for
subsidies; otherwise abdication is threat
ened; and after reviewing the whole
question of French interests in Mexico,
it concludes that it is not the DUTY of
country to submit to further sacrifices
In their behalf, and that the people hav-
ing already condemned what has been
done, nothing any longer justif1es the
continuation of military and political
interference by France in Mexican af-
fairs. The Steele overhauls the taxes
and expenditures of the country. to
show that they will not permit any tam
pering with our speculation that the
people have declared in emphatic terms
their approval of the design of the Gov
eminent to give up Mexico, for which,
it says, France has done too much and
and it is now for the Mexican monarch
lists to accomplish the rest. The de-
clination of the Mexican Empress to be
received with imperial honors at Brus-
sells is significant.

General sheridan's Dispatch.

Gen. Sheridans dispatch of August
lst to General Grant, concerning the
New Orleans riot, was published on the
Sd inst. in the "my policy" papers by
special favor from Washington. II was
soon after charged that the dispatch, as
thus published, had been intetlonally
mutilated so as to deceive the public.
This charge was reiterated from day to
day, but was denied by the Presidents
papers, The official correspondence re-
lating to the riot has just been published
in full, affording an opportunity for com
parison. Below will be found the dis,
patch as first published, side by side
with the genuine one. 1t will be seen
that the suppression Of the sentence in
italics, contained in the dispatch as
written by Gen. Sheridan, entirely
changed the character of the document.
The author of such an outrage on Gen.
Sheridan and the country, whatever his
position, ought to be exposed to the
public-contempt.
