MIR. RIMMEDs LAST RECITAL.


At Steinway Hall. Thursday afternoon, Mr.. Franz
Rummel brought his series Of recitals to close
with one which was in some respects, moro brilliant
than any of its predecessors. The programme was
varied, and not too long, and 1t was arranged
with such clever contrasts, that in spite Of the
number OF serious and somewhat heavy works
tho recital never became wearisome. The music
was too remarkably well suited to Mr.. Rummeps
STYLE and his playing was peculiarly good. lie
began with the ChrOmatio Fantasia and Fugue of
Bach. Both were splendldly played, with an ear
ncstness and enthusiasm which placed In the
strongest light the strength and deep feel
ing with which both pieces are instinct. and
the reserve and self-control which are needed to
make them clear and Ineligible. He gave the
fuguo better than any other of the Bach fugues.
and throughout the recitas he has given Bach bet
ter than almost anything else. Tho Beethoven
Sonata, op. Ill. was strong in conception full Of
sentiment and intelligence, and refined and finished
10 execution. In this as In several other works
that he has played in tho last three reoltals, the
practice which he recently adopted Of playing from
his notes, seems to have had an astonishiugy good
influence. 1t has ourbed tendency toward noisi-
ness and exaggeretion that has sometimes detracted
from the influence of his playing and TO have
begolten quietnessand steadiness which were want
ing whio at the Same time II has not parayaed bis
powers nor restricted them in the least unduy. Tho

It won't do You any good, but If it will make you
happy for PHYS sake take 1t
It is going to require the services of pretty able
fgurer to make calculation of delegates elected
and to be elected to Chicago which will nominate
Grant. He has certainly now only 224, and Is 100
short of majority. There are only loo more TO be
elected so that he cannot be nominated II ne gets
them all. AS matter of fact, ne has no chance lot
getting more than eighty Of these, and he may nOt
get fifty of them. Clearly the time has come for
the third termers to stop claiming and go 70 ngur-
ing.
The unit rne is hopelessly fractured, as it ought
to be. The same thing happens to it every four
years, and may be said to be chronic.
There are symptoms of a stampede from the third
term camp.
Anybody can see that the Democratic party is wait
ing to see what is done at Chicago before bit decides
upon its own candidate. These sham rtcommenda-
tions of Tilden and Thurman mean nothing except
that the party is waiting to see if it is going to have
the benefit of the third term issue to help eleot lUS
candidate. The more dubious the OUTLOOK for Grant
becomes tho greater Is the melancholy which ah1lcts
the heartiest advocates of third term, the solid
Democracy.
Tho desperation of tho third term managers is
shown by the tactics they have adopted in Chicago.
They call the primaries for to-day, giving only
three days notice, in order to manipulate them
more easily. Heretofore the custom has been to
have their delegates elected three or four days only
before the State Convention meets. NOW they are
called ten days in advance and at short notice
as possible. This is an indication that the anti
third term sentiment is growing so rapidly as 10 De
considered more dangerous every day.
Tho friends of Mr.. Tilden have not yet organized
for him spectacular tour of the country as the
only living centaur.
That was q very handsome testimonial Of esteem
which the Hampshire Republicans put into
their platform for General Grant bnt it is doubtful
if the fervent wish that the afternoon Of his re-
markable life may be made Eserene by exemption
from strife will be accepted by the General In the
kindly spirit in which it was offered.
If you want to see man look unhappy, tell the
first Democrat you meet that the chance for Grants
nomination is hopelessly slim.
The spontaneous uprising for third term seems to
have been replaced by q spontaneous upheaval
against it.

with view of showing tho standard of art

ed. 1t is only by this means that the ability
of artists may bo known, for the people who
patrouizo or support art, often with lavish

pencil themselves in order that they may pass
an intelligent judgment upon thom, rather

trust. In II word, they must judge of the
genius of an artist with thoir own Dyes, ani
estimate how noar he approaches their idoul
OF the perfection Of beauty from the response
given by their own hearts. But on this Occa.
sion il is desired to form au association of
amateur artists for the purpose of exhibiting
their pictures aud Of rcwarding merit.
