Public AchsoI Concert ~ Ford's GRAND

The utmost limits Of the Grand Opera House
we're tested last night, the attraction being a
Public School Concert. Upon the stage were
seated some two hundred and fifty pupils, (from
several grammar schools,) all neatly altired ,aad
resembling garden in their flower of yonth
and beauty. The exercises were inerspersed
with musical and literary selections, some Of
the former evinring considerable culture and
talent on the part OF the youthful singers
"Tht Heavens are Telling" from Haydn's ora
torio OF The Creation, was well rendered and
loudly applanded by the audience. a duet,
"The Hunters Song" was beautiful in execu-
ion and words, aud the vocalists were recalled
The solo, Beware words by Longielow, was
decidedly the gem Of the evening. The Young
Miss who sang it acquitted herself most credit
ably, and, upon being encored, responded with
"Tis the Last Rose Of Summer "See the
Conqnering Hero Comes," was given with tell
ing effect; and the chorus, "Vilage Bells" eli
cited uuboundel applause. The r.citations
were also warmly appreciated. The musical
part OF the programme was under the direction
of Prof. J. II1rry Deems. Baltimore Journul.

THE CRY HALL.-Our City Fathers have again
started upon q project for improving the City
Hall. The plan recommended for altering the
old building is not clearly set forth it might
be; hut it appears that the room for public meet
ings, on the first floor, to be abolished entirely
without substituting any other place instead. :
This would seem to be Questionable for many
reasons; but especially on account of having nc
room in which to give reception to visitors. And
yet some OF the larger cities have no large hall for
this purpose. Philadelphia, we believe. has none
larger than one Of the court rooms and what is
termed "Indepsndencs Hail." which is less than
woald be the Council chamber which the Building
Committee propose to enlarge TO the extent of thu
whole second story Aoor. But We do not care t,
discuss the manner Of the change in the building
Our present purpose being only to urge upon thu
Council the propriety Of carefully weighing tn
necessity for doing the work now: whether i
would not be better to defer it another year o
two, until We feel our taxes little lighter or W
become accustomed to paying such heavy rates.
Should the Democrats elect q President this fa
our Federal taxes will be greatly lightened mex
year. and We may be then bette, able to bear tn
heavier burden imposed by the Council.

TERRIBLE MORTALITY FROM MENINGITIS
From private letter from physician resld.
ing near Memphis, Tenn, we make the follow.
ing extract concerning the prevalence and fatal
results Of meningitis, throughout that section:
"Thls country is now suffering from two epi
denies, the smallpox an meningitis. The lat
ter is very fatal, in fact it is alarming Nearl,
all that take it d'e-those that recover are an ex
ception. 1t is worse than the Egyptian plague
as it is termed by some. So far, it has battle,
the skill of the medical fraternity, and they stan,
paralyzed and powerless to do any good. Tn,
mortality in Memphis is greater than il ever wa
during an epidemic Of cholera or yellow fever
We buried, today, one Of the most amiabl
young ladies il ever was my fortune to meet; he
mother preceded her by few days."

Although the bill to establish rifle range
for the National Guard has met with nothing
but approval. and is pretty certain to pass
through the Assembly, 1t is reported that there
is danger of its being smothered in the Senate
by the press of legislation. This should not
be allowed. The necessity of teaching the
militia the use of the breech.loaderS which the
State is about to place in their hands is patent
Troops who cannot shoot nowadays are OF
very little use. Yet unless suitable ground.
for their training are provided, neither instruc
ton nor competition in mark smanship is pos
sble. 1t is to be hoped that Senator Perry
and those having charge of the bill will srt
that it is not neglected, but becomes u law
without unnecessary delay.

Anna Dickinson Against Grant.

In New York, on Friday night "a large, in
telligent, and highly respectable audience as
sembled in the great hall of the COOPER UNION
to hear lecture by Miss Anna Dickinson.
But great disappointment befell them. In
stead of lecture, says the Sun, the audience
was held entranced for an hour and 40 minutes
by one Of the most earnest. eloquent. and eff
fective political speeches, certainly of the
campaign that has so early opened, and pos
sibly that has ever been heard in that place.
Miss Dickinson was announced to lecture on
1--WE, the People" She spoke In her most ell
thusiastlc vein on the political issues Of the
day, and carried her audience with her in a
bold and vigorous advocacy of the principles
involved in the Liberal Republican movement.
She denounced Grant as no Statesman and
quoted the remark of Gen Bartlett that he
wanted an administration not above inves
tigati0n but above suspicion. Referring to
Cameron she said there was one from Penn
sylvania, "a man who in 1862 had been brand.
ed by his party as common thief, and she
did not know that the verdict had yet been
removed
