THE MozART.-The regular weekly nlusi-
Gale OF the Mozart Association last night
was attended by the usual large audience,
and the printed programme, which offered
no very especial attraction, was rendered
highly enjoyable by Mr. Pease, the pianist
of the Thursby Concert Troupe, who
kindly consented to play a piano solo.
His selection was q polonaise OF his
own arrangement from the opera
OF Mienon. The composition is highly
meritorious, and the manner in which the
gentleman executed it was very fine indeed.
In response to the storm Of applause which
greeted this effort, he played Home, Sweet
Home,' and "Old Folks at Home" with
wondcrfully-w wrought variations. This last
but seemed to Increase the desire OF the au-
dience to hear more, and the persistent call
for second encore (Which was rather out
OF taste) could only be husbed when the
gentleman walked down from the stage.
Mrs. Louis Euker sang two pieces" o
Love, Be Kind" by Abt, and "When tits
Moonlight" by White. For the former she
received the most flattering applause.
Miss Vogeps rendition Of the piano solo,
| Gottschalk's " Last Hope" was very credit
able.
It is strange that the audiences OF the
|
| sical music in an evening, but the beautiful
trio OF Reisiger was but coldly received last
evening, and that too when it was so taste
fully rendered by Professors kessnich,
Thilow, and Rehhardt.
DIR. Bartkowski is evidently fayorite
with the Mozart, for he is always most en-
Enthusiastically received. His violin solo from
.Il Trovatore was very artistic, and gave
such universal pleasure that another pro
| hibited encore was permitted; in response
to which the oft-repeated gymnastic per-
formance OF the "Myozotis was perpe'
trated-and it may be for the last time (?). :,
The orchestra played better than usual
The overture &c La Sirene" was rather poor
but what they lost in that was in measure
retrieved by their spirited rendition g
Rossini's overture Z" La Gazzaladra," Whici
closed the performance.
The following paragraph from the Bato'
conveys a hint which, IL needed, Woult
greatly improve the performances OF tn
orchestra. 1t says:
"Talking Boucher horns, when our fou
or five play forte passages, it sounds some
times as il there were .ffty."

General Joseph e. Johnston will accept
the Conservative nomination for Congress

Richmond and the Canal.

The City Council of Richmond has again
refused to vote any aid to the canal COM
pany. This persistent refusal Of our chief
city-that is, the eastern terminus OF the
canai-to lend any assistance towards the
re0pening of the work must result IN serious
consequences even to Richmond herself.
So far as we can see, it will leave the canal
above Lynchburg ruin, and cut OIL much
of the trade that formerly went to Rich
mond from the counties west OF this city
bordering on the canal, and tend to
quicken the energies Of the Valley Rail-
road Company, the completion of which line
will carry the trade of those counties to
Baltimore. It is the death-knell, too. for the
present. Of the Clifton-Forge railroad
scheme. But if Lynchburg were only IN
condition to do it, this would be the time
for her to build line from this city to Cliff
ton Forge-a line that would do more for
her than any connection she could possibly
make in any other direction. And the
closing of the canal may, after all, have the
effect Of turning the attention OF our peo-
pie and other communities interested to
the building Of an all-rail line from Clifton
Forge to Lynchburg.
Richmond, il we may Judge from the
tone of her newspapers, has great horror
of seeing this road built; but as she will
do nothing for the canal, and it is quite
certain that Lynchburg will not 90 1t Tor
her, nothing remains for us but to bend all
our energies to the construction OF this
much-needed line. And so soon as the iron
interest revives the immense deposits oi
this valuable mineral in the region round
about us will be sure to provide the ways
and means for securing cheap coal by con-
nection with the Kanawha Valley. 1t Is
only question Of time.
We cannot conclude without expressing
deep sympathy for1hose people in Amherst,
Bedford, Rockbridge, and Botetourt who
are wholly dependent upon the canal fol
an outlet to market, and our regret for the
discouragement that has come upon Major
Johnston, notwithstanding his unsurpassed
energy in opening the water-line from Rich
mond to Lynchburg. Under these circum
stances, we think it not improbable that he
will resign the presidency Of the canal com
| pany, in which case we should be glad tx
see him take hold Of the railroad scheme
and push it through from Lynchburg tx
Clifton Forge. II anybody can do it, he j!
| the man for the work; and we can promist
| him stronger backing and q warmer appre
citation of his services than Richmond ha
given. n.-Lynchburg Virginian.

DRY GOODS have been for some time past the
cheapest merchandise In the market Many thought
it impossible for them to be lower. SO we do not
wonder at the surprise created by LEVY BROTHERS
advertising that they would allow cash discount Of
ten cents upon every dollars worth Of goods pur-
chased Of them. The people know that LEVY BRO
THEIRS, prices arc the lowest In this city and then
the extra ten cents taken off Of every dollars worth OF
goods places their prices so low that 1t will enable
those even with limited means to supply their wants
This extraordinary offer OF ten per cent. extra dis
count will only be offered for one week longer.
