A TEST OF TASTE.

1t has frequently been asserted by San
Francisco journals that the public of that
city possessed quite particular taste in
dramatic and musical art, and that this
critical public are always prepared to
review the judgments of London and Paris
and New York and Boston, and could
always be trusted to indorse the most
sterling merit. Well, for several weeks
one of the most magnificent tenors who
ever sang in America has been offering
this same fastldious and appreciative San
Francisco public the highest class of musi.
cal entertainments. Mr.. Ugo Talbo pos
sesses voice such as is only heard once or
twice in a lifetime. There are not three
living tenors fit to be named in the same
breath with him. To the most thorough
training he addsa compass and fexibility
which give assurance that every phrase
and note will be done complete and delicate
Justice to while the power and sweet
ness Of his organ are alike remarkable.
This noble singer appeared in admirably
arranged and selected concerts, assisted by
ladies and gentlemen all of whom are
artists Of real merit !; and critical, fastidi-
GUS, appreciative San Francisco, would not
90 to hear him, but let him lose money on
his enterprise. 1t is at least ten years
since such tenor as Ugo Talbo has been
heard on this coast, and judging from
the character of his reception, it will
be twenty more before his equal or his
like is heard here again. The critical and
fastidious San Franciscans are presumably
too much absorbed in the analysis Of

A CHARACTERISTIC DEATH.

The Democrats and Sandlotters OF San
Francisco have just lost one OF their office
holders who was disagreeable reminder
OF the error of their choice. He was
elected Justice of the Peace, and ever
since he has been getting into all manner
OF disgraceful difficulties through his
drunkenness and ferocity. He had been
arrested for assault to murder and for vio-
lent assaults OF other kinds repeatedly.
lie appears to have been drunk every day,
and when he was drunk he was quarrel
some. AT last he fell out OF the window
OF his Courtroom during one of his
drunken fits, and the fall killed him. The
most remarkable fact about the career OF
this man perhaps IS the fact that he was
permitted to disgrace the bench and mis-
constituents until fortunate accident re-
moved him.

THE POPULATION OF FRANCE.

The last French census has revealed an
alarming condition of things in regard to
the population statistics of that country.
1t has long been known that the increase
of population in France was much slower
than that of any other country in Europe,
and great many ingenious theories have
been invented to account for this fact.
The new census, however, shows that the
population has become practically station
arv. or in other words, that it will take
433 wears for it to double itself The
French births are only 2.47 per cent. OF
the population, and marriages and births,
both illegitimate and legitimate, have been
declining steadily during the past ten
wears. There is indeed but one set.off TO
this alarming state of affairs, and that con.
sists in the strong indisposition of the
French TO emigrate. The Germans are, on
the contrary, greatly given to emigrate,
and thus the population stagnancy of
France may after all not expose her
to be crowded to the wall by her
ancient enemy, inasmuch as emigra-
ton will keep the latter down to
about the same strength. What
the real causes of the apparent sluggish
ness of the provocative principle in France
are. it would be very interesting to know.
An extreme thrift is doubtless one very
potent influence, and it is well understood
that the national tendency that way has
been greatly on the increase since the
war with Germany. In the cities it
is also probable that the more
expensive and dissolute habits of the
workman class have of late years prevented
them from marrying freely. The growth
OF alcoholic vices may be credited with
some part OF the results, though perhaps
not much. But it is certain that a nation
which has almost come to standstill in
respect TO its population cannot be in a
thoroughly healthy condition, and that a
nation in such a state may be exposed
to the most serious and lasting reverses
through the operation of war or epidemic.
1t is, moreover, OF little use for the French
people to keep on shouting " Vive la Re-
"publique ]" while they themselves are
doing nothing to keep her alive.

THE ARMY RETIREMENT BILL.

The debate in Congress on the army re-
tirement bill seems to have drifted into a
personal question, the point being whether
General Sherman would be retired under
the bill, and, if SO, whether he ought to
be retired. 1t certainly does not appear
that there is any reason for retiring that
gallant soldier. The rank and position he
holds were conferred upon him by the
country az rewards for his eminent services
during the war of the rebellion, and it was
then understood, beyond question, that he
was to retain them as long as he lived.
The principles of the new bill need not
and ought not to apply to him. 1t seems
that there are numbers ofireally decrepit and
superannuated officers of high rank, who
decline to retire, although they have long
ceased to be of any use to the service or

THE GENEVA AWARD.

We presume that the Geneva Award
bill is to become law, since if the Presi-
dent had intended to veto it he would have
done so before now. The bill appears to be
another illustration OF the Congressional
capacity of chow not to do it." The
Nation succinctly remarks that D." the prin-
"cipal objection to it is that it provides
"fer the payment OF claims which have no
legal validity, and makes no provision
" for the payment of the claimants to whom
"the fund actually belongs" This does
seem to be rather a serious objection, but
Congress has got itself into that happy
state OF confusion regarding it, in which it
seems possible to do things because they
ought not to be done. The moral of the
bill, however, obviously is that when the
United States brings claims against foreign
powers for damages inflicted, and those
claims, specifically designated, are as
specifically met and paid, there never can
be any guarantee that Congress will apply
the money so obtained to the purposes for
which alone it was paid nor will there
be any assurance that the money will not
be paid ont for purposes entirely foreign to
everything which was in issue between the
two powers. Congress hereby declares
that England has actually paid claims
which England not only did not pay, but
which she and the arbitrator refused to
allow at all. The claims now to be paid
we're ruled out at Geneva. Consequently
Congress is stealing money from those to
whom it lawfully belongs-namely, the
claimants whose claims were admitted at
Geneva; and is giving the money thus
stolen to parties who have no standing in
the case whatever.

county, 1.-THE parliamentary party to have
NO nominations, but its members to be
eligible. T. P. O'Conner said this amend
ment amounted to vote of want of con-
fdence in the parliamentary party. He
accused Davitt of trying to injure Par
nell's prestige, land reiterated the charge
despite Davitt's repeated denials. Davitt
became greatly excited, and said a gentle
man would not have made such an accu-
sation. To prove it groundless he with
drew his amendment. 1t was finally de-
cided that the council should consist of
forty y-eight members, thirty-two from the
counties and sixteen from the parliamen-
tary party. Resolutions thanking Parnell
for presiding over the deliberations and
expressing unabated confidence in him
passed, and the conference closed.
The proceedings of the conference we're
not altogether harmonious. A delegate
named Louden, who attempted to speak,
was shouted down as land grabber and
renegade, and denounced by ex-suspect
Darlington as "a coward who ran away
from coercion All the speakers declared
the land act an utter failure. Davitt said
he was unable to go with Parnell in his
scheme of land reform, but would cooper
ate with him for the abolition of landlord
ism.

vented an open rupture. Dessension was
shown clearly enough in Parnell's open
ing statement and in Davitt's prompt re-
joinder, and the tone of bitter emphasis
wherein the latter spoke betrayed the
feeling of a man laboring under disap-
pointment, which he struggled to sup
