title it bears,-"Thc Prince of Musical

The May number comes to US over
flowing with Choice New Music. There
arc four New Songs, by Hays, Thomas,
Danks, and Eaton three Piano Pieces /;
and we notice a new feature in the shape
Of six pages of Quartet Music, which
will prove valuable addition also, a
dozen or more pages Biographical Sketch

be of Interest to all Musicians. Being
largely engaged in the publication o.
Sheet Music, Mr.. Peters has always a
fresh stock from which to make his Sc
lcetions, and seems nothing 10th to draw
from his resources to any required ex.
tent to make the Monthly what it should
be. Besides the Musical Sketches and
Eevicws Of New Music, each rumh, r
contains no less than thirty Iull-sz' d
pagrs Of New Music by the best w'itc's
in the county.
