Whatever may DO the popular prediction
with regard 10 the success or failure OF the
proposed Jubilee, the titles Of the music to be
sung, which were published yesterday, have
removed ali doubts as to its character, aud
made Il evident that no sacrifice OF duality
to quantity will DO necessary. Those who are
familiar With the jubilee music Of 1850 will
rooognlza many Of the grand choruses which
that occasion introduced 70 thbusands who
had never heard Of them before, Tho Elli
choruaes, Including the great - Hhil-ttnrm
chosus, See the conqnering hero dotnee,7
from Handell Judas MAcchhcupi the .'Vlo-
ria" from Mo1art's Twelfth MasEY he
lnngmmatusp from Rosslnfe "stabat ma
teri" the prayer from !" hoses In Egypt BY
the cams composer, and the glorious "Halle-
lujah chorus" from "The Messiah, have all
become, as one may say, household songs
within the past three years, and will be seen
with interest upon the coming programme
OF the new music we are TO have for the
first time, we believe, one chorus from Mr..
J. X. Palne's new oratorio Of "St. Peter;'
two are selected from Costa's Eli, and one
from Donlzetti's opera Of "Polluto." We
are especially pleased to notice that Mendels-
sohn's beautiful part-song, Farewell to the
Forest" which has displayed to peculiar ad-
vantage the excellence of the Handel and
Haydn Soclety, IL TO be attempted by the
great chorus, and that another part-song en-
tlrely for male voices has been added TO the
programme. II Il u the Intention of the
management that these songs shall be sung
without instrumental accompanlment--ad dan
gerous venture even with q small body Of
slngers--the effect, In the event OF success,
will be Of an lndescrlbably delightful char
acter.-BosioH Advertiser.

ENGLAND, CANADA, AND THE TREATY.
The ''imperial necessities of England
which often compel her to act directly
against the Interests of her colonies,
have been made the subject of some very
adverse criticism in Canada, insofar as
they relate to the Alabama claims arbi-
tration. Canada, with pluck acquir-
ed from the neighbors, has firmly inform
ed England that she expects to be in
Identified for our entry into her fisher
les, and England has been compelled to
give her an imperial guarantee of Ca
madam loan, to be applied to the con-
struction of Pacific railroad, and the
improvement of the canals of the St.
Lawrence. Canada at first asked for
s2O,ooO,O0O but only got $12,5OO,0OO.
The English are not pleased with the
conduct of Canada in this matter, and
consider it yankee trick" They
see that as Mr.. Smalley puts the case in
his latest letter from London, 'sthe in
terests of England and the interests of
Canada are not common, and that both
can be best promoted by a separation. "
The open proclamation of that convic-
ton, he asserts, was never more common
than now. It is but fair, nevertheless,
that England should suffer somewhat at
the hands of one or two of her colonies,
inasmuch as she has always steadily
sacrificed them when it was necessary
even to her convenience Still there
are those who believe that Canada would
not, on any consideration, become por-
ton of the United States, and, in giving
the guarantee for the above mentioned
loan, therefore have no fears that they
are contributing directly to the pros
perity and development of the s.intola-
! BILE Yankees They mainly dislike the
independence of Canadian action, and
grumble at it in roal John Bull fashion.

John Greeley, Of Londonderry. N. H.,
died last Friday. at the advanced age of
eighty-nine years. He was an uncle of
Horace Greeley, and somewhat eccentric.
He was well read in history, particular
~ Of his own country, and delighted in
lmparting useful knowledge to old and
young. He was possessed Of wonder
fully retentive memory and in his young
er days could repeat good portion of
the bible, books, and poems, also the
whole of the Declaration of Independ-
ence and the Constitution of the United
States. 1t was always his earnest desire
to have the children of the public schools
commit to memory the two latter. He
was democrat of the old school, and
although he read the Tribune he never
wavered from his conviction.

GREELEY SKY HIGH.-The eccentric
and fastidious editor of the New York
San has been overjoyed, tickled to death,
most, with his '.aaything to beat Grant"
motto, ever since the pollywog conven-
ton at Cincinnati, and goes into costa
sizes over every little bubble that bursts in
favor of his fraternal friend, Dear Old
Honest Horace" as he calls him. He
has special poet employed to make
rhymes abusive to all of ''Lyss's relation, ;
and fattering to the Chappaqua dealer
in nuts and 'bolts" But the latest thing
out, in the way of 'cumulus clouds, !"
is the form of Horace Greeley, seen
floating along in mid air, like a balloon,
by ''two different subscribers of the
San, who Immediately communicated
the phenomenon to Dana, one signing his
name ''Veritas," and the other Brook
Ignite" 1t came up out of the misty
deep and sailed gently off towards the
Goddess of Liberty, and, after little,
changed its form to something else, the
correspondent could not tell exactly
what, whether sea horse, a mermaid
or Gratz Brown. 1t was probably Gratz
with 'butter-dish' in both hands and a
watermelon in the other, with SO much
steam on that no wonder they couldn't
tell what Dana no doubt thinks this
is sure sign that Mr.. Greeley will go
to the White House, and that he may
GET OFFICE yet

One may insert a thousand excellent
things in newspaper and never hear
word of them from its readers; but let

Henry Ward Beecher says of the Gin
cinnati nomination, that he can see moth
ing in the whole movement but deser-
ton of the Republican party by Mr.
Greeley, and a coalition upon him of the
late rebels and the Democratic party,
and he can deduce no other argument
from the combination than the re-nomin-
alton of Gen. Grant, at Philadelphia.

first place the pictures that they deliver
are common plate pictures-enlarged tin
types-for which they charge you from
20 to 60 per cent more than [ charge
for the same kind of picture, for the
very reason that they are obliged to pay
express both ways, also to pay the ex-
penses of the travelling agent, all of
which you will save by getting your
work done nearer home. My work is
all done in my own shop, finishing and
all, Notwithstanding the Concord agents
statement to the contrary; and you will
find it to your interest to bring your
work here to be done, as l warrant my
work as good as the best and cheaper
than can be done by sending it away
Also, you will find my work just what it
is represented to be, as shall not palm
off tin-type for an India ink picture
