their religion leaders and representatives, I'M
pose upon them.
The Catholic Reuie,c regrets to see daily news
papers in New York doing all in their power
to bring about repetition of the brutal mag
sacre which has forever desecrated the men,
DRY of the last 18th of July.
The Golden Age arraigns General Grants
platform against his own administration upon
series of indictments. The conclusion is that
They are the voluntary and unanswerable con-
allowing Its best friends to be the Judge in its own
case. 1t Is the spectacle OF President put under
resident and his party ymn aa{
NOUS testimony against themselves They are
selfcondemned Nothing remains therefore, but
that they should be condemned by the people.
The Golden Age has the following to soy
of the Fifth avenue fzzle:-
The stream OF popular feeling rose up round the
delegates and carried them willy ny its billOwy
breast. Representatives from nearly all the States
were present and testified in alphabetical order,
with almost tedious monotony to the astounding
success OF the revolutionary movement. The result
was surprising. Among the gentlemen at the hotel
who would originally have preferred some other
candidate than Mr. Greeley, vet who then gave him
their hearty adhesion were Horace White editor
Of the Chicago Tfoatne Henry Watterson, editor OF
the Louisville Courier Journal; Colonel william M.
GrOsvenor, OF st. Louis; General Brinkerhon, of
Ohio; and Charles Nordhof, formerly of the EVENING
Jose. NOl III Ill the country cOulu I'VE more deter
mined iree-traders be named than these. And
when such former opponents OF Mr. Greeley now
unite IN supporting him IT may be said that the
Fifth Avenue Conference was greater Greeley tri-
umph than the Cincinnati Convention itself.
Says the Boston Pilot (Catholic) in regard
to the proposed Orange parade in this city
next July, and the suggestions are well worthy
of consideration
The Orange rowdies mean to turn out on the 18th
m hni foil try
men to break the law of this country, which gave
them both home. This being the case, the Irish
men who are thus to be insulted by the Orangemen
must be armed, too. Friends and Irishmen, we
must all be armed that day with patience and
peace These are the only weapons that carry
farther than the revovers OF the Orangemen.
Our country religious exchanges are barren
Of local or general interest. We are glad to
find however, that they continue to exhibit
evidences Of prosperity and are faithful tran
scripts Of the religious sentiments in their
several localities.

Music In the Public Schools.

1t will be a welcome piece of news to all in
terested in the culture and advancement of
youth to learn that the Board of Education are
ducing music as distinct branch Of study into
our public schools. This is q stride in adj
vance, and cannot fail to bring forth the hap
piest results The effect of such course in
the schools of Germany is well known, and
nothing can exercise a more humanizing and
refining influence on the youthful mind than
the divine art. 1t tempers asperities and rude
nesses Of disposition, enlarges the social cir
Gle, makes the mind and soul more cosmopol-
itan and brings US nearer to the millennium.
One city in this country (Boston) has at
tempted this course, but the inordinate vanity
of its inhabitants forced what otherwise would
have been blessing into a nuisance. The alb
normal development of music in the public
schools Of Boston eliminated in a Peace Jubi-
lee. 1t is unnecessary here to refer to the sad
results Of such an unnatural course. But New
York, with its large, cosmopolitan heart its
illimitable enterprise and its shrewd reasoning
upon even the grandest topics, can make bet
ter use of music thus popularity located than
any other city on the American Continent.
Music as special branch Of education in our
schools must necessarily result in the advance
ment of true art and the humiliation of mu-
steal humbug.
Music is nowadays an indispensable part
of complete education, while its usual
method of study is most incomplete and un-
satisfactory. If the child can be instructed in
music the same as in the ordinary branches,
and with the same care and skill, it will mas
ter oil the elementary and rudmentary parts
early, and be prepared to attempt the higher
and more advanced steps of finished musical
education at an age when, under the usual
methods, it will not have commenced even the
study at all. The Normal College could be
made the finishing or graduating school in
music as in other branches for at least one
thousand young ladies, and would produce
great artists beyond doubt out of this large
number. Selected from out all the
schools of the city, they will produce and de-
velop musical talent of exceptional excellence,
Again, music as at present taught in this
country is most expensive branch of educa-
ton, being practically by private tutors, al
great cost. If introduced into our public
schools as necessary branch of education il
will Immediately bring within the reach OF
every child in the city, whether rich or poor,
the advantages of musical education quite
superior to any of the city schools of private
character, no matter what effort is made in the
private school, nor how much money is ex.
pended The day has come when music is uni
versally priced and estimated, and the guar
dians of the public education should recognize
this as q public want and necessity, and
should provide for it as such and bring il
within the reach of every child of the city.
| Depend upon it, our public school system will

HE GERMAN EVACUATION OF FRANCE
AN INTERESTING APPROACHING EvENT.-To-
morrow it is expected that President Theirs
will be able to announce to the Assembly
that fresh treaty has been concluded be-
tween France and Germany, and if the an
nouncement comes up to expectation it will
mean that France is about to be freed from the
presence of the German invader. On Friday,
so far as we know the facts, treaty was signed
by the Count Won Arnim and President Theirs,
providing for anticipating the time for the
liberation of French territory from occupation
by German troops. On Monday President
Thiers in making the aforementioned an
nouncement, will demand authority to conclude
a loan to raise the necessary funds to make
the payments provided for in the treaty. On
TUESDAY morning it is more than possible
that the HERALD will be able to announce that
France is in a few weeks to be freed from the
German invader If such turns out to be the
fact President Theirs will have good cause to
be proud, and the French republic managed
by President Theirs must be pronounced a
success. France may do as she thinks fit !;
but whatever is to be the future form Of gov
eminent adopted by the French people the
republic form OF government under President
Theirs will be lastingly remembered as one of
the greatest political successes in the whole
history Of the French nation.

GRANTS MAJORITY IN VIRGINIA.
THE WATER LINE.

As will be seen by our Geographic coll
umn, several prominent citizens of Vlr-
GINA called upon the President with Senator
Lewis, to secure his cooperation for the
completion of our great internal water
line. We have great hopes of the eventual
completion of this work, but we have little
confidence in making any progress until Vir-
ginia herself throws off the malignant and
baleful influence which has controlled her
SO long, and which drives capital, enter
prise and manhood from her borders.
Any man who supposes that Congress
will put money into an enterprise like this,
while the spirit and policy of the dominant
party here discourages all the means of civ
ilized progress, is profoundly mistaken.
The West, some say, should put her
hand to the work. But what utilization
has the West with people who reject and
despise her progressive and liberal spirit,
and call her sons who may stray down here
carpet-baggers and intruders 7? We may as
well look facts in the face. Virginia will
get no help for this nor any other project
till her representativeslea learn to Great citizens
of other States with that decent respect
which they would receive in fore ign lands.

MISS KATE PUTNAM.

This gifted young artistic has achieved a
success in Richmond of which she may
well be proud. Coming here stranger, at
a time when the field was already fully oc-
cupied, and compelled to appear under a
combination of adverse circumstances, she
has won her way to public favor by the
simple force of her own genius.
Her audience last evening was of the
very best quality that the city can boast.
1t contained very large number of our
most refined and ed ucated people. There
was no uproarous or excessive applause.
But from first to last the audience was in
that complete sympat ny with the perform
ance which only rare genius can inspire.
1t was the spontaneous homage which
true men and women render to true art.
The morning press, represented by capable
and experienced critics, write in enthusiasts
tic praise of the splendid success of Miss
Putnam's Fanchon." They express the
deliberate and sober judgment of our peo-
pie in testifying to her transcendent merits.
She has all ths exquisite grace and natu-
ralness of Maggie Mitchell, with vastly
more depth and Iower.
She is fresh, pure and spontaneous as the
dew and the flowers. and the spring gushing
from the mountain side, and that is the
secret of her power. She is an honest,
thorough, devoted student, and from these
two sources come the guarantees of great
career. May her benign Genius preserve
her from the miserable Alterations which
have spoiled SO many gifted actors.
The Richmond public is deeply indebted
to Mr.. Browne for the opportunity to en-
joy such treat. His company is an ex-
cellent one throughout, and his worth both
as IN actor and as man entitle him to our
respect and hearty support in his well-di-
rected effort to elevate the stage and minis
ter to the higher tastes of the public.
