Music.
b. VIM. HILL, JR.


How varied are thy magic powers,
Why does the heart forget its grief
And Passion calm its raging fir,
Whene'cr some skiilful hand awakes
The p!aintivc harp or tuneful Tyre!
What lifts the soul of man above
Those hascr things that bind to earth
Transports him with its swelling strains
To dwell on scenes OF heavenly birth
'Tis Muse.
Hers the gift deep griefs to charm,
And Hates relentless hand disarm,
Tire Ii oi keeDest pain assuage
And calm the fevered hest of rage;
To wake once more fond memories dear
That dim the eye with the conscious tear.
Where is the heart that nevcr feels,
when DER it gently music steals,
The influence of II holicr hour,
The impress OF its magic powerf
Or where the soul though stained with
crime
Whene'cr it hears the we!l-an"wn chime
Of music loved in days g.flu by
That can repress the answering sight
And when our country calls to arms
How music every bosom warns,
The hero cheers when the c~oInbat's nigh
TO nobly win or nobly die.
st,r oft tie wavering soldiers stand,
Hear not their leaders loud command,
Awake not to his words OF cheer
But sluldcr at grim death 50 near.
Fair Freedom hovers DER their heads!
And sad her dropping wings o'erspreads
But let them heal the thrilling sound
OF trumpet. drum, or stirring fife
And 10 new courage they have found
Aud victory is theirs.
For bark they raise their battle-cry
In deaf,n;ng shents that rend the sky
Aud rush where carnage reYels high
BY music chcered!
And in Religions sacred home,
The temple of Gods holy love,
Through answering aisles and vaulte(l
dome
The decp-toued organ peals!
Hank! how it's notes re-echo round
And rolled from arch to arch resould
In tones so heavenly grand,
That Angels still their lute's refrain
And list to catch it's notes again!
Oh! where the heart III snch an hour
That yields not unto .music's powcra
The sinner knecling there repeHts,
His hardened heart ut length relents
Bows meekly meath the christening rod
And music lifts his soul to God!
But whom did Heaven best inspire
To sweep tire harp "r tuneful Tyre;
Whose trembling fingers sweetest woke
Fair music by their gentle strokel
The pure Cecilia's!
Meekly she heard ard obeycd the cal
To tune the harp to glorious lays;
But oh the hottest task Of all
She tuned it to her Sayiour's praise!
Then let us now with spirits light
Awake sweet music here tonight.
Oh! may those memories neer de'a,
That cluster round Cecilia's Day"

In speaking Of her performances 4 con-
temporary SAYS:
II must have been highly gratifying
TO Manager Clifford last night, to see the
vast concourSc of people striving to Sc
cure seats. That they fully appreciate
his attraction and company, was shown
bv the immense crowd who witnessed
the entertainment last evening. The
performance commenced with the de-
iightful musical drama OF The
Daughter of the Regiment Il beautiful
title plav--wcll written and splcndidly
enacted. Miss Putnam as Josephine
fairly captivated her listeners, and her
singing elected hearty applause. The
company played their parts with 4 great
deal Of dash and spirit, and as a natural
consequence the piece went remarkably
smooth. The farce OF the Little
Rebel" with which the entertainment
closed. is one OF the most laughabc little
comedies we have ever seen. Miss Put
nam as the Young school girl-juSt sweet
sixteen, kept the house in continued
roar OF laughter. I'm the language OF Il
lady friend, "She was just too cute Tor

THELABOR STRIKE.
The Heater and Helper Coal
Miners.

Yesterday morning the heaters and
helpers in the nail mills of this vicinity,
including Bellaire and Benwood, made
a demand for an increase OF price for
their labor and put out their furnace
fires. The manufacturers called ameeting
consider the state OF affairs and accord
ingly convened at the office OF the
Riverside Iron Works, yesterday alter
noon. They considered the matter and
without arriving at definite course OF
action, adjourned to meet this morning.
We called upon prominent manu-
facturer, Yesterday evening, for his
views OF the situation, and learned the
following: The heaters wanted 10 be
paid by pile weight instead of mail
weight" claiming they lost a great deal
by shearing, &c. But President Bishop
and the committee of the Amalgamated
Association refused to demand this.
Then the heaters demanded an increase
of , cents per ton, or on the 70 kegs.
They have been getting ~ cents and want
80. Pittsburgh mills pay but 20, and the
manufacturers here refuse to pay more.
Some time ago Pittsburgh reduced to 90
cents. and our mills retained the old
rate. On September 29th. the former
place raised TO 20 cents again, and
also raised the boilers. Now the heat
ers here come in and ask an increase of
five cents TO date from September 10Th.
Our iniorment did not know what would
be the upshOt.
We hunted up a number of heaters,
last evening, to get their views. They
too, had held a meeting, and the intor-
nation they impaired was OF a pleasing
nature. They had sent man to
Pittsburgh and upon his return had
found they were laboring under a
misapprehension. Consequently they
were then about to notify the owners
that they were ready to 90 to work this
morning. Soon atterward, fires were
lighted in their furnaces.
But Il new difficulty arose. The help
ers wanted an increase and had struck.
They are paid by the day, three OF the
mills here giving $40 and the rest -.
The helpers were about TO meet, rs we
Joined them, and Wehrle's saloon was TO
be the place. The meeting was secret
and we cannot tell the result, but 1t Is
probable they will 20 to work again, fol-
lowing the good example OF the heaters.
The coal miners are i'm the same
trouble. Those who work in the mer-
chant or pcddling mines will quit work
to-day, until they get an advance and
get the sizes OF wagons regulated. The
mill miners will 90 on as usual and what
will be the result in the others remains
to he seen.

This bank is in the city limits, and

there, is now pending. y very small
outlay of money would make the place
