Owyhee semi-weekly tidal wave. [volume] (Silver City, Owyhee County, Idaho Territory) 1868-1869, 1869-07-13

TIE HOME JOURNAL, closes its no.
tice of the Boston Peace Festival in
the following manner:
So ended one of the grandest
and most important musical events
in the history of the world-a glori-
Gus triumph. Its effect upon the
musical culture and attainments of
America will be felt in all time 10
come. Boston has accomplished
what no other city in the country
would have dared 10 attempt, and
p. r. Gilmore has come forth con-
queror from battle with public
opinion and the critics, which no
other conductor had the courage to
enter until the way was made clear.
Large-hearted liberality and gener-
GUS hospitality made the Festival
eminently cosmopolitan "a truly ma
tional celebration and although to
Boston and New England the first
honor and success are justly due, the
whole Union shares the glory of the
enterprise. The order that prevail
ed within the Coliseum was almost
miraculous. The police arrang-
ements were perfect. Everything
with the regularity and precision of
clock-work. There was no disturb
ance, no rudeness, no violation of
rules. The. audience was seated
and the building emptied with less
delay and noise than is common in
many of our theaters. Hence forth
no one can justly doubt the possi-
bility of holding in control very
large bodies of musicians and sing
ers. New England, through her
metropolis, has proven herself the
sturdy, noble warm-thro bbing heart
of our great nation let no one deny
her the need of honor so grandly
earned"

FROM the Statesman we learn that
the celebration in Boise was sue
cess in every respect, except perhaps
the misfortune, or mistake, of Judge
Bowers, in converting the Grafton
into a sort of Confederate address,
or Democratic apology for the fall
ure of the lost cause. We are as
tonished that man of the Judges
usual good sense should prostitute
such an occasion to such base pur-
poses as excusing rebels and charg-
ing the U. S. Congress OF instigating
the late unpleasantness, or that he
should take advantage oil such a
time to revive the old exploded
Democratic doctrine of the superb
ority of State over National Sover-
eighty.

THE Seventh Industrial Exhibition
of the Mechanics Institute of San
Francisco will open on Tuesday, the
14th day of September, 1869, at ii
o'clock A. NJ. with appropriate cere-
monies. They have completed a
building at cost of s45, 900 coin, COW
ering an area of 10000 feet, lighted
with l, 800 gas.jets at night. Every
arrangement for space to exhibitors
free of charge is being made. Foun-
tains, ponds, steam power with 200
feet of tumbling shaft, etc., are pro-
vided, and every preparation for
making this far superior to any form
er exhibition of the kind. We ac-
knowledge the receipt of circular
detailing their plans, accompanied
by a pamphlet copy of their last
years report, which we presume i'm
plies an invitation to be present.

VERY favorable reports continue
