Aptom,nas,s Harm ReeltaIs.

Last evening a number of cur leading mu-
steal people, by special invitation. attended
the harp recitals Of Mr.. Aptommas, at the
parlor of the Peabody hotel. To say that the
critical audience was delighted would but
half convey the impression produced by one
of the first living harpists Mr.. Aptommas
rendered three pieces, as follows: Grand Fan
tasia, on themes from "Montecchi Capu-
lett, "Alvars; Sounds from the Highlands"
Scottish Melodies, Aptommas; including 1.-THE
Campbells are Coming" Eye Banks and
Braes," and Reels and Strethspeys; Sounds
from Home" Aptommas, ''Codiad yr Haul,
'Rhyfelgyrch, and "Ab Shenkin." This
latter fantasia was suggested by the chsrac-
teristic pecuharity of the melodies to which
it owes its origin. Preceded by a
short introduction representing the
stiffness of night the piece opens
with THE Dawn of Day." the de-
velopmehtS of which is to illustrate
he gradual approach of daylight, the APP
pe4rance of the sun on the horizon, and ulti-
mateiy its glorious rising. The men of
Harlech, in the distance, are now heard
marching to the battlefield, from whence,
after a fierce engagement, they return vic
torious, and enter upon the festivities, the
scenes of which it is attempted to portray in
the treatment of the concluding melodies.
Mr. Aptommas received quite an ovation from
his select audience, and the general wish was
expressed that he would give matinee to-
morrow Saturday.. Arrangements are max
ing for the purpose of giving the public an
opportunity to hear this famous harpist in

THE INTERNATIONAL LITERARY CONGRESS.
LONDON, June ga Paris dispatch says
that the international literary congress has
accepted as basis for its decisions the prin-
ciples advocated by Victor Hugo Id his speech
urging that a book once published becomes
in part the property of the society, and after
the authors death his family cannot prevent
its reissue, but the authors heirs should be
entitled to from FIVE to ten per cent. of the
profits; that in case there are no heirs the
profits should revert to the State, to be
applied to the encouragement of young wri-
tiers. The congress resolved that the
right of an author in his work is not a legal
concession, but Il form of property which
legislation should guarantee to his heirs and
representatives in perpetuIty, and that after
the expiration of a term of copyright, fixed
by existing laws in different countries, any
body may freely republlsh literary works on
condition of paying percentage to the heirs.

Madrid, June 81: The announcement of the
death of the queen of Spain has been re-

almost approaches CONSERVATION. Hopes
were raised at the crisis of the disease that
the vigorous constitution of the queen might
triumph over the complication of maladies,
but her condition was made dOubly perilous
by the fact that she was expected to become
a mother before the end of the year. The
queen died about moon, in the arms of the
king, and surrounded by the royal family.

A Mail Coach Bushwhacked by the
Devils in TeXas-One Passenger
Wounded, but the Coach
Escaped.

GALVESTON, June pa Neics special
from San Antonio says: A special to
the Express from Fort Concho says
the mail coach from Fort Concho to
Fort Davis was attacked by Indians
last night, near Pecos RIVER and one pas
senger was wounded seriously, the stage es-
Gaping. This is the first time the large coach
has been attacked in tins vicinity, but it was
not unexpected. The Indians entirely ignore
the presence of the military, whom they
neither fear nor respect, and with good
cause; for the past three months men have
been repeatedly shot In this vhinity, but
nothing has been done to chastise the In
dians.
ANOTHER VERSION OF THE ABOVE STORY.
GALVESTON, June pa special to the
Ne,cS from San Antonio, says: The stage
was attacked by five Indians yesterday about
FIVE miles east of Pecos station. There were
five persons on board, among them Schetzky,
of Chihuahua; Major Schultz and A. B. Rob-
erts, OF Galveston, and Lieutenant Ayers.
The Indians were lying along the side of the
road, within few feet of the stage. Ten or
fifteen shots were fred, aud Max Schultz was
wounded in the leg. A party of Indians
visited Torres's rancho, on the Pecos, and
shot a man named Jose Garzu in the leg.
He was out in search of horses and encoun-
tered the Indians In cornfeld. On the
twenty-fourth two cow-men were attacked by
Indians and one of them, jacob Jaques, was
wounded. This happened near Castle Gap.
These Indians are from Mexico.
