The Last LONDON Opera season.

The last opera season in London does not
seem to have been very successful, from an
artistic point of view, at either of the great
houses. The AtheneuDl, speaking of the
debuts, says that ''at both houses there have
been introduced about the worst series of
new, so-called, artists ever known, and that
the failures have been continuous, and fur
Their says that sit may be doubted whether
there Is any novelty that will survive the
year, or whether there is any addition to the
list of leading singers" At Covent Garden,
the only novelties produced were the Atnla
Of Flotow and the Paul ct Vrgh'ie OF M.
Victor Masse. 1t is said that the most praise
worthy points of the season were the partial
restoration Of Nine. PATHS repertoire, and
her appearance again as Marguerite In
Faust, "Amlna," in the SOnnambnLG, and
''Zerlina," in Don GiOranni. She also
created there Rossini's SenIiramide, and
1t is hoped that next year
she may be heard in Norma, Lucia, LINDA,
etc., etc. If she is successful in all the works
which it has been suggested that she at
tempt, she Will certainly have to show mar
velous versatility. 1t is said that none OF the
new corners at Convent Garden were partlcu-
larly successful this year, and the tremolo
which some of the singers indulge IN, such as
Signori NIcolino, Gayarre, Cotognl and others,
is bitterly complained of. At Her Majesty's
theater matters do not seem to have been
better. 1.-The debuts of Mile. Wilde, it is
said, "of Madame Pappenhelm and of Mad
anne CROSSWORD cannot be said to have been
successful Whatever Miss Minnie Hauk
did in the Barber, the Trariata, and Don
GiOraHni. no doubt can be entertained of her
success in Carmen, as the part seemed to suit
her realistic style" whatever that may be.
Madame Gerster, the Hungarian priTG
donna, has done admirably; the more her
line of parts is extended the greater are the
dramatic gifts developed. Mile. Marimon is
also spoken of in terms of high praise, and
the orchestra, conducted by Sir Michael Costa,
is pronounced magnificent.

Let Harmony and Union Prevail.
EDITORS APPEAL-Being one who earnest
~ desires that this con gressional district may
not be lost to the Democratic party, write
to ask you to cast your influence for Hon.
Casey Young, not that | have any objection
to the other aspirants, but that harmony and
union may prevail in the party. The chances
seem to be against US at best, but any other
man than Hon. Casey Young will be most in
gloriously defeated, for l have heard some Of
the very best workers in the Democratic party
declare that they would vote for a respecta-
BILE Republican if Colonel Young was de-
feated. All the Irish declare SO. Conven-
tions are quite unpopular now, but if Colonel
Young is defeated they will be powerless to
control the people of this district. In my
advocacy of conventions | had to meet, only
a few days ago, the charge that Colonel
Young was to be defeated by a clique and a
ring. If Colonel Young is to ue defeated a
good reason must be given why. The BoL-
var Bulletin by no means represents the voice
of Hardeman county on this subject. | find
that the opponents of Colonel Young consist
mainly of the friends Of Judge Fentress and
7. c. Lowe, who were defeated by Colonel
Young four years ago. They want revenge.
If they are gratifed it will be to the detri-
ment of the Democratic party. Colonel
Young can get some negro votes, which
General Wright cannot do. l am not con-
cerned so much for the interest of Colonel
Young as for the Democratic party. ! know
whereof | affirm. 1t will be party suicide to
defeat Colonel Young. | hope the other as
pirauts will withdraw before the convention
meets. That you may know my standing, |
refer to DIR. J. r. Graves and Dr. Landrum.
With the best wishes for the success of the
party, am, respectfully yours, etc,

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Educated by His Mother.


EDITORS APPEAI-In recent issue of
your paper there is an erroneous statement
that the late Charles l.. Anderson, Of Shelby
county, Tennessee, was a self made man.
Through the anne medium, for the sake OF
his mother, whose heart is bleeding with
anguish at every pore, and wrung with sor-
row upon the recent bereavement Of a noble
and ever-devoted son, allow me to correct the
above, by stating that this son was not born
In Middle Tennessee but in Frankfort, Ken
lucky. This widowed mother, young andln-
experienced, by her own accomplishments
and heroism, unassisted, succeeded In educat-
ing and disciplining three lovely boys. All
three were given liberal education IN
academic and collegiate studies. including
music and the languages. The noble son Of
whom | am writing, was more practicable
than either of the others. The foundation
laid by the noble mother, his wonderful skill
in bookkeeping, his training as a railroad
man, his correct judgment of character, his
quick perception IN all business matters, fitted
him in marvellous degree for the several
stations he so ably filed. From one familiar
with the early history of his mother and of
Charley Anderson himself, the neighbor,
friend, brother, companion and

The board of health and the press Of the

that every case of yeliow-fever appearing IN
our city will be duly published, the publica-
and all facts concerning the case. The AP-
PEAL believes this to be duty to the people,
and it will be strictly carried out by the re-
porters of this journal. If the case is bilious
or malarial fever, as announced by our ablest
physicians, it will be 50 called; and if it Is
pronounced yellow-fever, the APPEAL will
not hesitate to so publish it. The public
should pay no attention to rumors, but should
rely upon the beard Of health and the press
for facts
