Music IN CAPITAL SQUARE.-The
suggestion made by us on yesterday con.
cerning tri-weekly concerts in Capital
Square has met with very favorable in
dorsement in many quarters; and if those
having charge of the improvements and re-
pairs of the State House will give us access
10 the southern portco of that building, by
means of stairway, we think the sugges-
tions can be successfully carried out. Mr..
McCann leader of the 1st regiment band,
cordially approves of them, and will use all
his exerto ons in promoting the success Of
the scheme. Inquiries looking to this will
be at once instituted by him among our
State and city officials and citizens general

THE EIGHT HOUR QUEsTIoN.-The
Baltimore american of this morning has
the following concerning the action of the
international Typographical Union yester-
day upon the eight hour question: "Prin-
ters employed on the morning daily papers
could not help but appreciate the ludicrous-
ness of the resolution introduced into the
International Union yesterday, committing
them to the support Of the eight hour
movement. AS this class of men labor
from twelve to fifteen hours each day the
idea of their theoretically favoring eight
hours is all illustration of the difference
between precept and PRACTICE

CONDITION OF THE GROWING GRAIN
IN ILLINOIS AND IowA.-The Chicago
papers publish reports from large number
of points in Illinois and Iowa in regard to
the present prospect Of crops, from which
it appears the crops are generally backward ,
particularly corn, on account OF the cold
ness Of the spring /; but large area being
planted, and with fine weather, hencefor-
ward the prospect for at least the average
yield is good. Wheat, particularly fall IS
looking badly in many localities, and in
some counties they are plowing up the
wheat fields and planting them in corn.
This, however, occurs in some more north
ern counties of Illinois every season. Oats
and other small gains are generally look
ing well, the former cereal promising al
abundant yield.

The Treaty-An Additional Article to
Drafted by England

The Treaty--An Additional Article to be
Drafted by England
London, June 3.-In the House of Com
mons to-day Gladstone apologized for not
being able to make definite statement
with regard to the negotiations with the
United States, as he had promised the
House. The postponement of the day of
adjournment by the American Senate rem
dered a full explanation impossible.
As for the supplemental article to the
Treaty of Washington, he would assure
members that it did not leave the subject
Of indirect claims, present or future, open
for a misunderstanding hereafter, and in
this view Mr.. Schenck, the American
Minister, conceded. He gave an account
of the preceding negotiations, and said the
suggestion was made that England should
draft an additional article whereby she was
| to make certain agreements for the future,
and the United States was to undertake
not to press indirect claims. This sug-
gestion was accepted and acted on. The
difficulty which had arisen did not touch
the main point.
