A Boomerang Criticism.

The Boston Globe says: "The story goes that
some weeks ago young bnt excellent must
clan came from the Dirigo state to submit a
few of his best compositions to the critical eye
of one of our greatest organists and composers.
The young man was Endorsed by the leading
musicians of his native state, and wished to
know from outside criticism in what his real
worth consisted. His compositions were
looked, played and hummed over and pro-
nounced upon favorably, except few passages
where he had left the grooves established by
the old masters and struck out after ideas of
his own. These received adverse and severe
criticism. Our Dirigo friend claimed that he
had precedents for his course in the compost
lions of modern composers of great fame,
which was strenuously denied. He returned
to his eastern home in a thoughtful mood, pur-
chased the oratorio of his critic, which had &C
quired national if not old world distinction
and proceeded to review it. He discovered
before half through. some score OF more, it is
said, just such departures from the "old mast
ers' methods" as his critic had complained of,
marked them and mailed the oratorio to the
renowned author What the thoughts of that
gentleman were on finding himself "hoisted by
his own petard" we have not learned. He
will probably be more careful in future in
oondemning departures from established ruts. +"
We happen to know who the young COM
poser, and the distinguished musician are, and
we have not the least doubt of the correctness
of the above article. Both of them are Port
landers by birth.

MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.
CROWN DIAMONDS.

Last evening Mr.. John Stetson's new Eng
lish Opera Company made their first appearance
in Portland at Music Hall in the presence of
an audience that though small in numbers was
musical in taste and very enthusiastic.
Crown Diamonds is one of the prettiest
operas in the English repertoire Its music is
piquant, sparkling, melodious, ford, for the
most part sweet and tender and sometimes,
but seldom, little noisy. Its story treats Of
how a queen Of Portugal whose crown dia-
monds had been stolen by brigands went
among the robbers incognito and became their
queen. Here she was encountered by the Mar
ouis of Santa Cruz who fell in love with her
although betrothed to the daughter of the
prime minister. q fter his escape from the
brigands and when the marriage contract was
about to be signed by Diana and the Marquis,
Catarina, the queen, entered accompanied by
Rebolledo, the brigand chief She was
recognized by the Marquis who refused to
sign the contract, after which she escaped. She
afterwards returned in propria persona and
love all the time with Don Sebastian makes
that young grandee happy.
Mr.. Stetson has furnished in Crown Dia-
monds a cast, chorus and orchestra deserving
of high praise Considering that last night
was but the second public appearance of the
troupe, and therefore partook much OF the
character of a dress rehearsal, it was q remark
able performance Mr.. Adams, who has been
identified with opera abroad for many years

Return of the Salem Cadets.

Yesterday the Salem Cadets spent in view
ing the different places of interest in and
about the city, Many of them were escorted
about by members of the Blues and others by
personal friends of long standing in the city,
or new acquaintance. Quite number of
the officers and members of the veteran organ
ization were invited to the Inequalities of the
Cumberland and Commercial Clubs. Mayor
Oliver was taken to see the Pine street and
High Schools by Mayor Walker, and at both
made addresses to the scholars full of incidents
that pleased them greatly. Marshal Bridges
took Capt Hart, of the Cadets, who is City
Marshal of Salem, to see Capt Parker Of the
Reform School, for they were old comrades
during the war.
At 4.15 p. M, the Cadets, in heavy march
ing order, left the Falmouth Hotel, headed by
the Cadet Band, and marched to the Blues
armory where they received their arms. Col.
Dalton thanked the Blues for their cordial
reception and hospitality and invited them to
visit Salem or to visit them in encampment at
Magnolia. Capt. Davis replied appropriately
The two commands then marched to the East
ern station, and the Cadets left for home by
special train at 5 p. m, amidst reciprocal
cheers.
Prior to the march the Cadet Band delight
ed our citizens with a charming open air con-
cert in front of the hotel
