MUsICAL.-The concert at the court house
Tuesday night was a splendid success. The
house was full of people, and the little folks
did themselves and their leader, Prof. Stimson.
great credit. Their sweet voices, the exact
time and correct pronunciation Of words, at
tracted the admiration of all the audience.
The quartettes, duets, trios and comic songs
of Mr.. and Mrs. Pratt, and Mr.. HavenhilI and
Stimson we have seldom heard equalIed The
three former have had large experience in con-
certislng. They sang several pieces of Mr..
Pratt's own composing, which stamp him as
one of the best musicians in the country.
We are glad to know that Dir. Stimson will
continue his instructions to the little folks.
Nothing can be more useful or more beneficial
to the children than learning to sing. All
parents should avail themselves of Mr.. Slim
sons fine musical requirements. There Is MOTH
ing more striking to the observation of those
who can appreciate good singing than the diff
ference between the excellence of the music
furnished by this class and the old-fashiOned,
nasal, whangadoodle style often heard in adult
audiences. In the one there is time, melody,
and distinct understanding Of almost @gery
word. In the other there is discordant sc1lads
and the Jumbling Of words, so that not one can
be understood. Music is progressive, like ev-
erythinS else. You might as well do anything
else the way they did it % years ago as to at
tempt to sing the way they did % years ago.
We need good singing in our Sabbath schools,
churches, concerts and private circles. The
way to have it is to commence on the little
folks, and give them musical Quotations
Therefore we hope all our citizens Will give all
aid in their power to every proper attempt to
learn this useful accomplishment.
hope these concerts may be repeated.

Tho Bank Cases.

A case Of considerable interest was oom-
menced yesterday before the Appeal Court.
It comes up from the Court Of Equity, and
is in substance as follows:
A promissory note for $906.6S, drawn
July 2S, 1880, was discounted by The Bank
Of South Carolina. Not being paid on ma
turity, it was protested, and the Bank,
about June l, 1881, recovered judgment
against the drawer Of the note for the
amount. The original holder Of the note,
who died in September, 1880, left a will,
and constituted his wife executri1. In
June, 1868, the executrix paid the bank the
liabilities Of her testator, and among others
the above-nsmed note, upon which the tes-
tator was liable as endorser. The note was
thereupon delivered up to the executri1,
and the judgment obtained thereon, it is
stated in her answer, because the property Of
the estate of her testator, and that the
Bank of South Carolina ceased to have any
interest therein. In December, 1865, the
attorneys of the executrix demanded pay
ment of the note.
The attorneys of the drawer Of the note,
the plaintiff in the present case, replied by
rendering, in satisfaction Of the judgment,
bills of the Bank of South Carolina to the
amount of the claim. This tender was re-
fused, and the case heard before Chancellor
Il. D. LEsEsNr.
In his bill the plaintiff staten: l. That

These amendments hurt the bill and i'm
