Musical Festival.

The eighteenth annual musical festi-
citation was held at Concord last week.
There was quite a large chorus, and
under the thorough drill of Mr.. Ter
RAIN, it did effective work. Excellent
solo talent was present at all the con-
certs-Mr. w. c. Tower, tenor, on
Thursday, and Mrs. H. NJ. Smith, Miss
tia Welsh, and Mr.. d. NJ. Babcock on
both days, and Mr.. Alfred Wilkie at the
two last concerts. Eastman's orchestra
was valuably supplemented by Mr.. c..
n. Allen of the Beethoven club, and Mr..
Wulf Fries. with his cello. Mrs. Shop
ard accompanied on the piano, with her
usual skill and vigOr. With such talent
the concerts could not fail to be both
artistic and pleasing. The usual rOu-
tine OF choruses, songs and instrumental
music made up the programs until the
last evening, when Haydn's oratOrio of
the Creation was brought out in fine
style by the magnificent chorus Mrs.
Smith, Mr.. WIlkie and Mr.. BabcOck
sustaining the solo parts. A very nov
ell feature of the Thursday concerts,
was some artistic whistling by Miss Ell
la Cham berlin of Cambridge. This was
much more attractive than the simple
announcement would seem to indicate,
and a repetition was demanded. The
weather was terrific the last day, and
the concerts were not So fully attended
as they would otherwise have been !;
but those who could get there were
we'll repaid. For the success of the fes-
tival much credit is due President j. H..
Morey, who looked after every detail,
and put much work and energy into the
occasion.

Referring to one of the latest of his
greatest enterprises, namely, the Arc
tic Exploration in the Jeanette"
there seems considerable anxiety very
generally expressed about the fate of
the brave men who sailed in her, and
it has found expression in an earnest
appeal to the government from Judge
DAILY, President of the Geographical
Society, to send a relief expedition,
which may be in the very uick of time
to prevent second Franklin catastro-
phe. There seems little doubt that the
weather is exceptionally severe even
for the ever-frozen North. The coolest
spot on the earth, according'to the sci
entists, is Yakutsh, the eastern capital
of Siberia, and with that hyperborsar
city of the world has telegraph commu-
nication. If the government won't dc
what is asked, | don't see why we
shouldn't get up ''twob bit boom" like
the st. Louis people, for sweet charity's
sake, and chip in our quarters to equip
grand national search party. Money
enough could be raised if we were real
! ly in earnest about it to almost build
a railroad to the very jumping off place
at Symme's Hole. Your RADIX re-
specially offers this suggestion and
trusts it may meet with your editorial
support, and substantial results from
your intelligent readers.
The Elks, a dramatic and literary
crowd of professionals the Old Guard
who are bowling swells of the choicest
militia circles, and the French Cercle
de I Harmonic, have all been INDUCING
in their annual fandangoes, after theil
several fashions. The first were merry
and witty, the second merry and digni-
| fed, the last exceedingly merry, and
very much the reverse of digniied il
fact, toward the early hours, when
milkmen cOngIegate round the favorite
hydrants for business purposes, before
waking peaceful neighbOrhoods with
unearthly yells, their proceedings were
such as would have shocked the good
Mr.. COmstOck. There have been lots
of minor affairs in all grades of society
and Gotham is becoming, very evident
ly, every year gayer, livelier, more bent
to pleasure than of old. People wor-
ship the Almighty Dollar as fervently
as ever, but they give their deity q
good deal more exercise than was ac-
corded not many years agO-they send
the dollars rolling around. Plenty OF
money is made, and lots of it spent
too. Imports are picking up again in a
wonderful way, and the luxury, which
is very widespread, is of proportions
that would have clothed Heliogahalus
with envy to contemplate. RADIX.

Divorces.

Rev. S. w. Dyke of RoyaltOn, this
state, created no little stir about the
Club" last week in his address at Ire
mont Temple in the Monday lecture
course, on the relations of divorce to the
public morals. A very small audience
was present, but the statistics of Mr..
Dixie were immense. They so impress
ed his few hearers that many prominent
citizens of Boston organized a New Eng
land divorce reform league at once.
The statistics of Mr.. Dixie were what
moved the people. The rapidity with
which the per cent of divorces had in
creased in the last twenty years under
lax laws was startling. Massachusetts
laws now specify nine causes for di-
vorce; but twenty years ago, but two
were allowed. At the earlier date, the
ratio of divorces to marriage was one
to fifty in 1873 it was one to 2O.4, and
the increase goes on yearly. The total
number of divorces granted in the New
England States in 1873 was 2072-a
larger ratio in proportion to population
than existed in France in the days of
the revolution. In -four of the New
England States y per cent. of the mar
rages are of Catholics. Deduoting
these, as the Catholic church does not
allow divorces, we find tho ratio of di-
yorces, to marriage among PrOtestants
in those states to be one in eleven. In
speaking of this matter, the Boston
Journal, in an editorial on this divorce
question, we'll says:
During the last score of years, while,
the general increase of crime has been
90 per cent, crimes of licentious char
acter have increased Ia per cent, and
the proportion of children born out of
wedlock has more than doubled. The
marriage and birth rate ia New Eng
land, once higher than in any country
in Europe, has fallen lower than in al
most any civilized nation. These are
momentous facts, which ought to arouse
the public conscience, and to unloose
the tongues of those who are set as
teachers and opponents of public NOR
ais. We do not need to take any very
exalted religious ground to appreciate
the Importance of this question. 1t is
matter of political economy, and of
national security not less than of NOR
ais. 1t is too late to argue the point
that the permanence of society rests
upon the family, the sanctity of mar
riage and the prevalence of social puri-
ty. History is full of illustrations of
nations that have gone down to ruin,
from causes precisely like those which
are sapping our New England life to-

The people of twenty eight States
are paying the expenses of Legislatures
now in session. The people in most of
these States, however, have been
permitted by their lawmakers, who
should be their servants, to vote upon
the question of biennial sessions and
elections, and consequently they will
have neither elections nor Legislatures
in session year hence.
A very good story is told of a young
Indiana man who, on being dismissed
from one of the departments at Wash
ington for some irregularity, went to
Chairman Jewell of the Republican
National Committee with a proposition
to 60 to Indiana and render assistance
in spotting Eastern Democratic repeat
ers. Mr.. Jewell gave him a 500
check. The young man raised the
check to $1,000, went to the Democrat
ic National Committee with the story
that he was hired for that sum, exhib-
iting the check, to take party of Re-
publican repeaters to Indiana. He
then proposed to take the repeaters to
that State and use them for the Demo
Gratis for $4,000. The proposition was
accepted and check given for that
sum. He then destroyed the raised
check, drew the $4,000, but rendered nc
service.
A passage from Gov. Plaisted's ad-
dress which the Boston Journal speci-
fed as the utterance of shameless
demagogue," and the Boston Adver-
tiser calls ''open and undisguised COM
munism and agrarianism," was taken,
almost in the very words, from a speech
of Daniel Webster, who said ''univer-
sal suffrage could not long exist in a
community where there was great inc
quality of property. The holders of
estates would be obliged, in such case,
in some way to restrain the right of
suffrage, or else such right of suffrage
would, before long, divide the proper
ty." The Portland Advertiser Justly
reminds the Governor that he should
remember another warning by Webster,
who declares that ''the evils, the losses
and the frauds consequent on disOr-
dered currency, fall on the rich and the
poor together, but with especial weight
of ruin on the poor"

Stanley Matthews in Luck.

"SOme men are born great, and some
are born.in Ohio" is the way one of the
newspapers accounts for the selection
of Stanley Matthews of Chic as the sue
cessOr of Justice Swayne on the Su-
preme bench. a. That is very neat way
of putting it, we admit, but it should
he remembered that President Hayes is
from Ohio, and therefore he.mOst like
~ knows more great men in that state
than the average newspaper man. Be-
sides, Mr.. Matthews is a relative of Mrs.
Hayes, and all admit her superiority.
Besides this, even the critics admit that
Matthews will make a very respectable
Judge.

says that Mr.. Tilden gave S25,0 900 to

subscription with words equivalent to
saying, ''you must not come again, for

Interoceanic Communication.
THE THREE IsTHMUs CANALS.

Montpelier Freeman.l
There are now three plans that are
much talked of in the business world
and whose advocates are or will DO be-
fore congress for help of one kind or
another. They are the Panama ship
canal, the Nicaragua ship canal, and
the Tehuantepec ship railway. The
route to be gotten rid of is the all-water
route by way of Cape Horn which
makes a ships course from New York
to San Francisco Is, 672 miles.
The Isthmus of Panama Joining
North and South America is between
Aspinwall, a seaport on the north upon
the Caribbean sea to Panama on the
south on the Bay of Panama about "a
miles wide. 1t is between Aspinwall
and Panama that De Lesseps proposes
to construct ship canal. There is
considerable jealousy of the scheme in
question as it has been thought the
company would be under European
control. The estimated cost of this
canal is Sll0,000,000. 1t is to be a
tide water canal-that is cut to the
sea-level so that no locks will be need
ed except a tide lock to deal with the
Pacific tide which is twenty feet higher
at dudIud tudH llut on Iut Alidu-
tic side at Aspinwall.
The Nicaragua ship canal as proposed
would run from Grey Town, or San
Juan de Nicaragua, seaport on the
Caribbean sea some $50 miles north
west of Aspinwall, westerly about rs
miles to Lake Nicaragua, which it
would utilize, and from whose westerly
shore it wOald pass some 25 miles to the
Pacific coast at Nicaragua Brito. This
canal company proposes to "climb' to
the lake by locks and its advantages
are claimed to be that of healthfulness,
nearness and cheapness. They claim
the Nicaragua canal can be built for
S75, 100000. Its western terminus is
400 miles nearer San Francisco than
Panama and there is something more
than that distance saved over the Pan
anna route.
Five or six hundred miles to the
northwest of the Nicaragua route is
the Isthmus of Tehuantepec separating
the Gulf of Mexico on the north from
the Gulf of Tehuantepec on the Pacific
side on the south. This isthmus is 100
miles wide but as a navigable river
runs nearly 90 miles of it the distance
Eads, the engineer who did the famous
work at the mouth of the Mississippi
by the jetty system, proposes a ship
railway across the Tehuantepec 18th
mus, estimating its cost at $75 900 900.
The route will be 1900 to 1900 miles
shorter from the Pacific and Atlantic
principal seaports than that by the
Panama.

DIVORCE AND LIBERTINIsM.

DIVORCE AND LlBEkIlNISM.
Says Prof. Phelps of Andover: We
are not half awake to the fact that, by
our laws of divorce and our federation
of the social evil, we are doing more to
corrupt the nations heart than Nor
monism tenfold. Vice avOwed and
blatant and organized, to large extent
nullifies itself, so far as self-ditfusion is
concerned. But vice, lurking and still,
trickles into all the crevices of society.
A nation of MormOns is impossible
not so a nation of libertines.
Rev. S. w. Dixie, in his lecture
Divorce is one form of social disease,
appearing in a highly bred people like
those of the New England type, just as
other forms of life, when carried to a
high degree of perfection, become liza
BILE to their own peculiar and insiduons
tendencies, which, unless carefully
watched and checked, are constantly
working to throw down the results of
high culture to the lowest forms OF
degradation.
