There seems to be something with
a very bad odor attached to it in Ros-
common, which is an abomination and
u source OF righteous indignation to
the more respectable portion of the in

seems to be a consumInation devoutly
to be wished.

The Xmas Tree at the Hall on
Christmas Eve, under the auspices of

MUSICAL ACOUSTICS; or. The Phenomena Of Sound
as Connected with Music. BY JOHN BRoADHoUsE,
author OF "Henry smart's Compositions Tor the
with more than 100 illustrations. 12mo, PIP. 430.
London: William Reeves 1881.
This work, Of which q special edition has been
imported for in this country by Messrs Scribner
g. Wexford is intended partly, though not entirely
we arc told, for the Of students preparing for
musical examinations. Acoustics form part Of the
subjects required for musical degrees ut Cambridge
and the University of London Besides this special
and limited class Mr. Broadhonse informs US in his
preface that he has kept in mind the class OF cul-
tured people, who " want nowadays to know ns
much as possible about tho causes OF things"
1t may be doubted whether the vague general
class last mentioned will take any great interest in
the book, and this not so much from the nature Of
the subject as from its presentation here. AS help
TO musical "cram,o it will doubtless answer well
enough, though it might have been made much
shorter with advantage. As book for the general
public of cultured people" appealed to- there are
several objections to be found to II. The author
has distressing habit OF laying down law N his
own way. and then quoting at length from several
different authorities -HelmholtE chiefly, Tyndall,
Airy and others-to precisely the Same effect and
not infrcauently in the same words. The reason
given for this practice is that the author judged 10
| better to support his own statements by the an
deniable authority Of well-known names, rather
than ask the reader to take everything upon trist.
The effect of the practice is that OF wearsone itera
| ton.
Theoretically the book is sound enough, and
with the help of its numerous illustrations conveys
good deal Of useful information In not too difficult
o way But its method is bad. and there 10 o
patronizing tone adopted toward the supposed stu
dent Of its pages that grows to be irritating. Sore
of the most valuable portions are borrowed-wlth
acknowledgment-fro Mr.. A. J. Ellis, such as the
appendices on aPitch,n " The Voice." and cognatS
subjects, and there is appended series Of examina
tion questions, suited to each successive chapter
