Committee on Appropriations.
An Appropriation for Concerts on ths

An Appropriation for Concerts on the
 Green.
 The Committee on Appropriations held an adjourned meeting in room 10, City Hall, last evening, Alderman Stoddard presiding, to further consider the petition of the American band for an appropriation to enable them to give free concerts on the Green during the months of July, August and September. At the last meeting of the committee sub-com- mittee was appointed to confer with the American and Broadway bands as to the amount of money they required for free con- certs
 Councilman Marsh from the committee re- ported that the Broadway band would play once'a a week for three months for $500. He suggested that if the American band was singled out for free concerts it would create dissatisfaction. He advocated an appropria- tion of $1OO by the city as the nucleus to 6 subscription, provided a certain amount was raised, and this and the amount subscribed to be divided between the two bands.
 James Thompson, representing the Ameri- can band, said he thought the plan of sub scription would be failure, as many of the merchants had heretofore claimed that the band on the Green was an injury rather than benefit to their business. He said that the present American band had been thoroughly organized on the principle of the American band of Providence, and they were securing the best musicians they could find both in and outside the State All they asked was the encouragement of the city and it's citi- zens in order to make the band one of the best in New England.
 It was voted to recommend that $1O0 be appropriated to head subscription list for concerts on the Green, to be divided equally between the American and Broadway bands.

THE JEW IN NON-JEWLSH PROVERBS.
From The JeuiSh World.

From the JeUtSh HOTid.
How one nations estimate of the Jews differs from

handling a Polish prOyerb, which rendered INTO
English runs: II" The German can trek the POLE; the
Italian eau cheat the German the Spaniard can
trick the Italian; and the jew the Spaniard. But
the devil alone can cheat the jew" This would
certainly make the jew match for any but " Old
Scratch himself. But the experience OF The Swiss
as indicated by their proverbs rather the other
way. They say: IL takes nine Jews to cheat
native of Basle ana nine Bascler' to take III u
native Of Cent And English tourists who have
tried the hotels at either OF these SWISS resorts will
heartily subscribe to the truth OF the popular say
ing. And again, further east the Italian says 10
takes three Jews to make an Armenian; three
Armenians TO make a Greek and even then there
are "A dozen ordinary Christians left"
That many proverbs are founded upon misapprc-
tensions. DR.. Jelnek shows from a very old French
pfoveTb that says: b" jews on Passover; MOOrs IN
weddings; and Christians in lawsuits expend their
moneys" Now tits curious TO note here, that on
Passover the jewish dietary Is necessarily more re-
strctcd than OIL ordinary occasions. What imposed
upon the multitude was the white ciOtn: tbs

of the German proverbs afford an admirable Oppor-
