MUSICAL REVIEW.

The coming musical season promises well for the
publishers. The appearance OF the exquisite corta-
trfce de concert, Mile. Car0tta Patti, who to Judge
from her European career, Will find no rival here
worthy OF her great talents, Will undoubtedly give
strong impetus to music publishing, as her roper
toire is very large, and, OF course, her ballads and
romanzas will be eagerly sought after The demise
OF buresque and opera bou1e has brought healthier
and more artistic style OF into the field. and
we are seldom afflicted with the trash which 1t has
been our duty to denounce so often. English opera
Will also exercise, we hope, beneficial influence
the musical tastes of the public and do service in
cleansing the AuGean stables OF some OF our pub
fishers OF the rubbish which they have so long per-
sisted In placing before their patrons. Altogether
the prospects are bright and cheering to the mind
OF every true lover Of the divine art
