THE GREAT PEACE JUBILEE IN
BOSTON.

A day or two ago, the kilograms from
the other end Of the continent informed
us that the Coliseum in which the
Grand Peace Jubilee in Boston is to be
held, vas completed, and that it will
come of on the 18th of June. By our
Eastern exchanges (Which We now re-
ccive in eight and nine days., we notice
that great preparations are making Tor
this truly grand musical event, n II
any Of our Washoe people intend visit
ing the East this summer, now ia q
good time to go, and also to visit the
grand time in Boston. The entire
thirty-seven States are looking anx-
iously towards " little Boston" to catch
the echo from the ,%tupendous musical
event she is about to %inaugurate. The
fact is that the jubilee is going to be a
good thing. The immense building
that is to hold the audience Of fifty
thousand is now ready the vocal
societies through the length and
breadth Of New England are hard Mt
work at the grand choruses, drilling in
squads of twenties, battalions Of hund.
reds, and regiments Of thousands the
whole community has suddenly become
vocal, and the mightisst chorus that
ever was gathered together is soon to
be heard among them. How will they
sing? Can there possibly be any unity
or precision of time in such an immense
mass? viii the effect be soul-inspiring,
or simply ear.splittiug? Will there be
any real music about it, or will it be
merely a great bewildering chaos OF
sound? These are the questions that
are now asked, and which cannot be
answered till the fifteenth day Of June,
We have our doubts about the eau.
non, our serious misgivings about the
bells, and are nearly hopeless on
the anvil question. But there is a
might and majesty about the human
voice when heard in great choral masses
more deeply moving than any other
sound, more majestic than Niagara,
moro terrible than the roar Of ava
lsuches, more a~we-inspiring than even
the thunders of heaven. Tho effect is
one impossible to be described, but al
those who nave once heard great choral
forces of thousands, bear witness to it'
mighty influence. At what numerical
point this effect reaches its maximum
has mover been satisfactorily decided
The Boston festival will help to solve
this question.

The Bangor Jefer,onian tells OF a
Penobscot fruit-grower "A genuine
Yaukee-who stopped at Washington
last winter on his way home from n
little trip to Florida. He was deter
mined to see General Grant, and there

doorkeeper his wishes. What followed
was this:
"Thc General is engaged"
"Well, l want to see him.
"Upon business ?" .
"No, sir, | want to see him. | don't

"Wheu will he be out?"
In about four hours"
"Well, I AN not going home without

I will sit here until he appears" Then
dropping into II chair he resigned HIM

Presently the d~oorkeeper was miss

He followed him into another room
and was introduced to General Grant.
The General extended his hand, and
expressed himself happy to see him.
He shook the Generals hand, took a

WOMEN possess the right to vote more
excessively than is generally supposed.
In Austria, women can vote as mobiles,
in their corporate capacity rs nuns, and
as taxpayers. Ia some cases, however,
they vote by proxy. In Hungary, up to
lS4s, widows, aud single ome who
were landed proprietors, possessed the
right to vote. They were deprived Of
it by the revolutionary Government,
and are now p%etitiouing for the restora-
ton of this right. In Canada, rs in
several of our own States, women are
allowed to vote for and serve rs school
trustees. In the British Australian
colony OF Victoria, women universally
assumed tho right to vote about four
years ago, having found that the law
had been so framed az to permi, them.
In Sweden, chiefly through the excr-
ton Of the late Fredrikn Bremen, an in
direct RICH, of voting was in 1882
granted to all IN possessing speci.
fed property qualifications. In Italy,
a widow, or wife separated from her
husband, may vote if she pays taxes.
Also, in Holland, single ONE possess
, ing property are en,itled to vote on all
questions likely to affect its value. In
many towns in France women possess
and exer. she right to vote in municipal
affairs.

PERsoyAL.-Adolph Sutro, Esq, the
protector Of the great Sutro Tunnel,
did US the honor Of a personal visit this
morning. Mr.. Sutro has recently ar
rived from Washington, where he has
spent several years among Congress-
men in trying to convince them of the
necessity of giving Congressional aid
towards the construction Of his great
tunnel, which is to tap the Comstock at
the depth of upwards of W. thousand
feet, and which is to demonstrate its
permanency and great wealth, when the
hosting works which arc now
upon it will prove inadequate to
do so. Sutro is sanguine that his
enterprise will yet be successful,
and perhaps sooue than is expected
by some. As We are getting n splendid
railroad for the Comstock, why not also
have q deep tunnel, for air, for drain
age, aud for the easy extraction Of ores
from the levels below fifteen hundred
feet? II looks almost like an urgent
necessity, and the Government is GER
tainly at fault in not giving the required
assistance 10 run the tunnel.
