The PUBLIC SITUATION IN SPA1N.-The
latest kilograms from Madrid report news
which is of very interesting and rather ex-
citing import. The Republic has attained
very serious crisis in its governmental history.
The Assembly has been dissolved by a unani-
nous vote Of the Legislative body, SO that the
country will have to endure the citizen ordeal
of general election. The motion for dis
solution was adopted by the Parliament i'm
mediately after the Porto Rico emancipation
rule was recorded. The Spanish population
will be moved by various and very opposite
and contending influences during the period
which will precede the election and to the
very moment Of the casting Of the vote. The
army, the navy, the Church, the Bourbons Of
every stripe, the democracy pure and simple,
the radical propagandists and the Communists
and revolutonist reactionists will all be at
work, and each and every one of them find
friends Americans will watch with friendly
interest the progress Of the simple, law-abid-
ing democrats. The army and the Carlists
both continue to give trouble at some few OF
the provincial centres.

During the few days past our news columns

The Board of Education has. for some TINA
past, been agitating the question of making
the study of music regular branch of educa-
ton in our public schools. Heretofore music
has been treated merely as an accomplishment
or an agreeable method of pushing forward
pupils whom Nature had endowed with good
voices, and nothing more. Inferior teachers
have attained positions of grave responsibility
through the. medium of music, as their ability
sidered an equivalent to complete knowledge
Of the necessary branches of education. Con-
sequently in many schools, especially where
ambitious young ladies were in charge, visitors
to the annual exhibitions were favored with
selections from operas and sentimental ballads
sung by pupils who did not know the differ
ence between do and md. The question now
in agitation Is whether such state of things
shall continue, or whether music shall become
regular study, to be dispensed by competent
teachers and to enable us in this city to have
materials on which we can build up good
vocal societies. At present there is not vocal
society in New York capable of undertaking
Qgatorio music, and the best works of the
great masters are closed. against u.s. When
oratorio music becomes as well known
in this city and as thoroughly appreciated
as it is in England the chances for musical
humbug in other branches of the divine
art will be considerably lessened. Then the
effect of music in the social circle should be
sufficient inducement for the Board of Edu-
cation to make it feature in our schools.
That intense love of home, famiiens Iebe, as
we might call it, which distinguishes the Ger
mans, is traceable, to no small degree, to the
attention which the divine art receives in
Fatherland. When music is enshrined among
the household deities peace and harmony are
generally to be expected as necessary conse-
quences. The divine art, when cultivated in
the proper spirit, cannot fail to exercise q
wholesome influence, either in public or at
home but when it is made only medium
for the useless display of superficial gifts it is
calculated to do more injury than good We
want in our schools q system of teaching
music analogous to that Of HuIlah in Eng
land, by which sheet of music will become
as Ineligible to pupil as page of gram
mar. This can only be accomplished by the
appointment of thorough, well-informed
musician as superintendent of this branch Of
education in the public schools Aught else
will tend to bring music into disrepute and
destroy the very object aimed at by the Board.
The voice of the community is in favor Of
prompt and efficient action by the proper
authorities in favor of this, the most beautiful
study to which the human mind can be ap-
piled.

The British Budget-A Comp.rison.


The English Chancellor of the Exchequer,
Mr.. Lowe, will show in his annual budget in
April an income of three hundred and eighty
million dollars and an expenditure of three
hundred and fifty-fve million dollars. This
will be gratifying exhibit, as the English
government is in the habit of making the
income and expenditures nearly balance,
leaving only comparatively small margin for
q sinking fund for the national debt. A sur
plus of twenty-five millions Of dollars is, there
fore, considerable amount. The current ex-
penditures must be, consequently, about two
hundred and thirty million dollars, calculat-
ing the interest on the debt at one hundred
and twenty-fv million dollars. These figures
are only approximate, but are nearly correct.
Now, the expenditures of our government,
taking the list of appropriations made the last
session Of Congress, are over one hundred and
ninety-fve million dollars, exclusive of the
interest on the national debt. That is to say,
the current expenses of the United States,
apart from the debt interest, are only thirty
five millions less than those of Great Britain.
Yet the army navy and civil service of Eng
land are much more costly than ours In fact,
our army and navy are insignificant compared
with those of England, and we have no ex-
pensive royal government to support. How is
it, then, that under our simple republican in
situations we are spending 80 much money!
All the talk about retrsnchment and economy
amounts to nothing in the face of such facts.

The PRESIDENT INp1sposEp AND WEARY
Our Washington dispatches inform us that
General Grant is indisposed, that besides hav-
ing cold he has lost that ''toughness charac-
teristic of him during the war;" The cold is
an accident arising from the changeable YEA
Their, and he will, no doubt, soon recover from
that; but we are not surprised that he is
losing his toughness or vigor, for the labor Of
hearing the host Of ofice-holders, examining
their claims and deciding upon their cases at
the commencement of new term, is enough
to break down the strongest man. However, we
learn he has pretty well cleared his appoint
ment docket, and waits for the adjournment Of
the Senate before making some unimportant
changes in the diplomatic or consular SER
vice. Then he will have more time for repose
and con take journey to the West, and, per-
haps, to the South, to recruit his strength.

No Cholera at lockwood.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: The circulation
of report that the cholera is at lockwood
renders it necessary that the facts should
be made known. In the absence of DR..
Kimbrough, who has until recently done
the practice here, the care of his patients
has devolved upon me. Being, therefore,
fully acquainted with the character of the
diseases occurring in our midst, it seems
proper that / should correct the report.
That we have had a good deal of diarrhea
and other bowel affections lin some in
stances of malignant type,) is certainly
true; but these diseases have in every case
yielded promptly to treatment, and the af-
fiicted are rapidly recovering. No single
death has occurred from any of these
causes.
Every precaution has been taken to ex
clude the cholera. The sale of fresh fish
| in the place has been prohibited. Negeta-
| bles have been in most cases abandoned
| and in others sparingly used. Disinfect
| ants are freely used, and, altogether,
| think we are in good condition to escape
| the scourge. But whatever may be here
after it is certain that we have no choler;
here at this time. ID. NJ. BREAKER,

Francis Joseph and His Frau.

Public gossip in Vienna, says cores
pondent of the Baltimore american, rep
resents the Emperor and Empress az by no
means very happy in their conjugal rela-
tions. Her photographs in the windows
show her to be very handsome woman,
about thirty-five years of age. She is said
to be OF remarkable intelligence and
sprightliness of manner. The royal pal
ace is in the heart of the city, and the En-
peror resides in one wing of it and she in
another, living entirely apart, except when
they meet on state occasions. He lives a
very loose life, and, like the kings Of the
olden times, has an abundance of royal fe-
male favorites. Corruption and lack OF
virtue is the predominant trait of the court
of the empire, This, at least, is the gen
eral conviction Of the people, and, judging
from the fact that there are annually born
in the general hospital from five to six
thousand iilegitimGte children, Vienna
may fairly be set down as a city of very
loose virtue in all grades of life. They arr
quite different class of people from thu
staid and solid population Of Prussia an'
Northern Germany, more resembling tn
French and Italians in their habits, AM
modes of life and ways of living.
