Musical Matters.

Mr.. Ernest PeIabo sends us the programmes
of three matiHees which, assisted BY Mr.. Mulla-
ly, the violinist, and the Philharmonic Club Of
Boston, he has recently been giving in that
city, in Wesleyan Hail. The selections are
made with great skill, proving Mr.. Perabo to be
an exceedingly favorable specimen of the mod
ern musician, thoroughly respecting the grand
schools of Bach and Beethoven. and ready to
appreciate aud bring forward for popular hear
ing such modern compositions as he deems
meritorious. 1t was pleasant to see Mr.. j. X.
Paine so often represented in these programmes.
That the execution equalled the intention of
these concerts cannot be doubted. Mr.. Perabo
is an admirable and growing pianist, the Phil
harmonic Club are too we'll known here to need
description, and Mr.. Muilaly is an excellent vio-
linst. 1t would be very delightful if Mr. Pera-
bo would arrange similar concerts in our city.
Some interesting documents relating to Mo
zart have recently been discovered among the
papers preserved in the old Archiepiscopal ex-
chequer chamber at Salzburg. They are three
autographic petitions, addressed by Leopold
Meyer, the composers father, to Archbishop
Siegmund, in 1869; to the Cathedral Chapter,
in 1771, and to Archbishop Hieronymus in 177S;
two autographic petitions of Wolfgapg Amade-
us Mozart to the latter prelate in 1776 and 1879
and the DEGREES by which they were followed.
1t is worthy of remark that this worthy ecclesi-
astic was desirous of keeping the Mozarts at
SaZourg. He was very proud of young Mo-
zarts talent and extremely jealous of the
marks of admiration bestowed upon the youth
full genius by other courts. 1t is easy to see
that Leopold Mozart aimed at retaining his ap-
pointment and fixed emoluments at Salzburg
while travelling about and making money by
his gifted son elsewhere Despite their sub
missive tone, neither of the Mozarts, father nor
son, was particularly careful about the language
he employed. Thus Wolfgang Amadeus. when
writing to Archbishop Herony mus, says, Eve
are taught IN the Gospel about usury in tai
ents." Hereupon the archbishop answered in
his decree, Father and son have, according to
the Gospel, permission to seek their fortunes
elsewhere.

The Situation.

An inspection of our telegr aphic columns
will show that very little change has taken
place in the presidential situation since our
last issue. The outlook for the Republicans
has on the whole grown brighter, and the con-
fdence of the Democrats is evidently weak
ening. Wade Hampton telegraphs from
South Carolina that he thinks Tilden has car
ried the state, which is in marked contrast
with the Democratic confidence of last week,
when the state was claimed by them by from
5000 to $1,000 majority. The report that the
name Of one of the Republican electors was
misspelled upon the ballots need alarm no one,
as the manifest intent of the voter will be re-
garded and the elector returned as if no error
had occurred. Louisiana and Florida are
still contested by the Democrats, but they are
gradually reducing their majority and show
ing other signs of waning confidence. 1t must
be remembered that the majority of reports
come from agents of the Associated Press
who are Democrats, and who are not slow 10
distort the truth in the interest of their polit-
ical friends.
Iuc pIOuduility 10 tudl ILLS SLdCe vi CQlDgS
will continue till the vote is officially counted
which will hardly be before the middle of the
week. Till then Republicans should possess
their souls in patience. With full conf
dence that the final count will conduct Gov.
Hayes to the Presidential chair. Demo-
cratic papers and Democratic correspondents
will still continue to suppress dispatches and
manufacture reports in the interest of gam
blers who have bet heavily on their candi-
date, but they should disturb no one nor be
allowed to abate one particle the confidence
of Republicans.
The PRESS, as heretofore, will give all the
news, the Democratic claims as well as the
Republican, and when anything decisive ar
rives will furnish it to the public at the ear
liest possible moment, by an extra if need be.
Up to the present everything indicates that
the electoral college will stand as follows:

This is very light diet, and conforms both
with the requirements of q light pocket
book aud light constitution. Physicians
warn people against excessive eating and ex-
cessive drinking upon occasions of this
kind, and the Dairy just meets such injunc-
tions from the medical men. But as have
previously stated, the first impulse with
some seems 10 be TO I'LL their stomachs until
strength is nearly exhausted, and then they
parade In the sun excellent subjects for sun
stroke, and the numerous Ills that the ex-
cessive heat brings on. The physicians all
state that over half of the cases on the
grounds demanding their attention, have
been from overloaded stomachs. With
such as these the feeding of the mind
amounts to nothing, 1t is 10 "the fair round
belly' happiness that they delight.
There seems to be an encouraging in-
crease of visitors daily, and this gives cause
for pleasant anticipations of the future, 90
far as they relate to the financial success of
the exhibition. The reduction of admis-
sions upon large bodies of excursionists and
children, will do considerable, together
with the issuance Of season tickets. This
is something that many express surprise at,
not having been done before. The manag-
ers are getting down to hard business prin-
ciples and will soon make all edges cut.
When this Is done then there will be pros
pect of the Centennial emerging from un-
certainties with whole timbeys.
People who come here, strange as 1t may
seem, almost always 60 away dis
appointed. Not that the show ID
a failure. But because It is SO large that
even were they to remain q week they
would not find opportunity even IN that
space of tine to see everything. A gentle
man told me yesterday, he is one of the in
side patrol. that he has been here since the
opening day, and that his duties requirs
hiE to be in every building, and notwith-
standing he looks at everything he sees, he
fuds something fresh every day. So thatit
Is impossible for person to 90 away with
out having missed something. As one Of
the Japanese remarked to friend Of
mine not long since, "Heapee show,
too muchee show, no geiee lokee at allee,"
and he must have been high in rank among
his people for his breast was covered with
royal insignia. No one who expects to do
the Centennial thoroughly should devote
less than two weeks to It. There is 80 mnch
to see that It cannot be disposed of in the
most sighting way In less time. Every
body is welcome and those in attendance do
not tire of answering questions. It is even
said that the pictures of Washington dis.
tributed around smile approvingly upon the
throngs who gaze upon them daily as the
Father Of this country done up in oil.
