O,rwooD MEMoR1AL-DAY.-The ann,

OAKyooD MEMoRIAL-DAY.-The annual
work OF decorating the soldiers graves at
Oakyood Cemetery occurs to-day, and Ii
the weather should be favorable the cere-
mony will be largely attended, not only by
those most nearly interested by reason OF
living in the eastern portion OF the city. but
by others from other and more remote To-
calities. Flowers are in abundance, and
each one who goes might carry some-lf
only enough to lay as tribute on one OF the
dead hero's graves, and thus show to the
living that the memory of their deeds and
Of their suffering has not been obliterated
nor ever shall be.
It bas generally been regarded as a sort
of half-holiday by those who live adjacent
| to the grounds, and to-day Bellevue and
Bethel schools will be closed at u O'Clock
to allow the pupils an opportunity to assist
(as they all delight to do) in decorating the
soldiers graves.
The private schools in that portion Of
the CITY will also close aJ the same
hour. and in the afternoon hundreds O.
eager little faces will be seen fastening t.
the city of the dead with their tributes O
| flowers.
This alone, were there no other object IL
view, Would amply repay the visitor c
Oak wood to-day. An omnibus Will max
! regular trips during the day from the post
office TO the cemetery, and another from th
corner of Broad and Twenty-ffth streets.
AN omnibus will be at Mrs. u. s. Iui
pins, corner OF Franklin and Twenty-slxt
streets, at 8 O'Clock this morning to conVe
| the Board OF Managers and their assistant
to the ground.

THE MOZART.--The Soirfs given by the
Mozart Association last evening was instrll.
mental, and not few Of the large audience
present must haye been most agreeaby dis
appointed at the rare entertainment afforded
them. While there was no distinguishing
feature in its simple announcement, the pro.
gramme was almost uneXceptional through.
out. Every number was pleasing and wei
executed.
The orchestra played four pieces, and are
to be highly commended for the skill dis
played in the execution OF each. Their in
terpretation OF Parlow's "Songs without
Words" was very correct and pleasing
while "The Kings Polonaise, by Bilse
"Die Hydropaten" Waltzes, by Gunge
and the spirited overture OF Suppe, Piqut
Dame," were handsomely rendered
Perhaps the gem Of the evening was the
very chaste manner in which Professor
Thllow gave the cello solo Adelaide" by
Beethoven. He was very creditablS accom-
panied by his daughter, Miss ThiIow.
The piano duo, "Caprice Hongroise" be.
tween Miss Vogel and Professor Reinhardl
was chaste and graceful performance.
Professor Kessnich's violin solo, "Sou.
veEir de Haydn" and "Sounds from
Home" by selected qlintette, both added
much to the pleasure of the evening.
The Baton is still facetiOus, and was
welded most numerically over one OF its
contemporaries in the last issue.
