The Great Musical Peace Festival.

The arrangements for the monster fec
tival to commence in Boston in June next,
are rapidly progressing. The question of
site has been settled in favor of st. James
Park, one of the newly established public
squares on the Back Bay lands where the
erection of the great building has been
commenced. The proposition TO use the
parade ground on the Common was sharp
ly discussed, and finally negatived-fears
being entertained that the erection of a
building for the festival on the Common
might adversely affect the city's title to
the Iand--and also that such precedent
might open the door for the erection of
other buildings in the future without
limit,

THE HARGUMENTs OF THE SAINTS.
English Mormon preacher at Ogden,
where the railroad meets the Mormon
Saints, is thus reported by an irreverent
Gentle who heard his discourse on a re-
cent Sabbath: He said 'fhe Saints we're
the most scleckest people hon the face ov
the berth. Hif they hain't, my brethren,
why did they gather to these valleys hand

on: "Ihey laughed at Noar hand said
what an old fool he was to build bark
but lots ov EN- wished they was hin it.
Didn't they, brethrcng h'I say they did.
They laughed at Daniel, but hit turned
out that 70 was right. And they laughed
at HelDab, and they swore hat i'm when
he said there would he no rain; and now
they laugh at u.s." The logical conclusion
of course, was that laughing at prophet

A BOOK OF RELIGIOUS SONGS FOR SuN n
DAY SCHOOLS AND THE HOME CIRCLE.
The authors believed that by recourse to the
FOLK SONGS OF GERMANY, "A rich mine OF sweet
and simple melodies hitherto but little worked
music at once very easy, very attractive beauti-
ul and of high order might be placed in the hands
of children and from a careful examination OF a
bout four thousand OF these GERMAN FOLK SONGS,
the present collection has been cued. Great pains
has been taken to put the music into proper KEYS,
for children's usage. It's our experience that mu-
sic for children is very generally written too high.
A ehild's voice should seldom he carried above ID
and as a rule, it cannot be maintained for num-
Der of bars on G or without fistting. Accord
ingly, we have so selected the keys that only a
very few melodies, in which it was impossible to
avoid it will be found to run above ID, in any
part of them.

duces weakness of the bodily powers. Some
times il happens that ire appetite demands
more food than the stomach can digest; though
not more perhaps, than is required to keep up
tho foil strength of the frame. The object
under such circumstances, is to increase the
digestive capacity of the assimilating organ, SO
as to make it equal to the duty imposed upon
it by the appetite and capable of supplying
the building material Of the system as fast as
it IS required This object IS fully accomplish
ed by the use Of the Bitters. They tone and
gently stimulate the cellular membrane which
secretes the castle Juice, and the result is that
the solvent is mingled with the food IN Suth

stimulate desire for food. Ia nineteen cases
