There is no reason why we should
not have n proper musical education in
this city, and employ competent in-
struct0rwhen the occasion is presented.
Professor Bora, whose notice appears
in our paper to-day, proposes to open
such an academy tonight at the col
lege building on Elm street. He is
well known in New York and Boston,
has references from Gottschalk, the
great pianist, Bassini and other most
prominent musical men in those cities,
is sufficient evidence of his, sterling
qualities and capacity as teacher of
the art of music. He is q thorough
musician and fully competent to In
struct teachers as well as pupils. His
method is new, and is adopted in the
best schools of Europe. Professor
Bora Informs us that he did not come
here to teach, but while here and ell
gagged in other business that will not
interfere with his classes. he proposes
to show our people how music on the
old system is badly represented and
badly taught. 1t remains with us to
give him fair trial, and he invites all
interested to be present tonight at the
college, as stated in his card.

The Diario, of Havana, whose editor
was intendento Of that city during the
former rule of General Concha rs cap
tain general has recently published an
editorial pointing out among the spe-
cial advantages the general good to the
island that would follow q restoration
of peace. Owing to the relations be.
lieved to exist between the editor and
Captain-General Concha, the arti-
cles are thought to be inspired by
the Spanish party and that their
object is to prepare the people of the
island for manifesto of the prominent
Hispano Cubans, demanding an ac-
commodation between the so-called
loyalists and the insurgents, to be in
augurated by temporary cessation of
hostii.ies, to be followed by q formal
treaty of peace.
The bases of the treaty were made
known, and include n pledge that the
island shall remain united to the
crown of Spain, that the people shall
elect representatives to the cortes, that
slavery shall only be interfered with
by consent of the owners, and in case
emancipation should be decreed the
owners of the slaves are to be indem-
nitied.

ing of Rev. DIR. Brush and Rev. Mr.
Carhart ut Odd Fellows hall, on Sun
day night. DR.. Brush possesses n
voice of splendid compass, and with
an imposing figure and tluency of ut

his evangelizing scheme with much
interest and, we hope, success.
Rev. Mr.. Carhart, his co-laborer in
the vineyard, is u winning speaker,
genially earnest, of a refined caste of
temperament and will no doubt prove
an efficient and faithful laborer in this
his new field, under the inspiration
and teachings of his Great Master. On

reverend gentlemen will hold meet

ton, on Bryan street. M

Police Appointments.

Captain John III. Ryan was yester-

him reliable and efficient MD,

day in its reorganization of the police
force in selecting the following ros-

Mr.. Hudson will have charge of the

city jailer. We regard the gentlemen
composing this force rs thoroughly
qualified, though we think force of
fifteen would not be too many.
