THE EMBARRASSMENT LAST NlGHr.-A
snowstorm is rather uncomfortable for Il
public entertainment, and there was there
fore small gathering at Arnory Hall last
evening but those who did face the wind
and falling crystals were well repaid for
their courage. The Mozart boys, under the
direction Of Mr. Grigs. led OIL. with the
Festival Song and during the evening
sang iour clorrl5cs, the last being IN encore.
Mr.. Pu@h was in excellent voice for Ora
hams Farewell" which is saying Il great
deal, ard the audience loudly demanded
another song. Mrs. Smithcrs' rich. bell
tones were heard in when the Leaves BE.

Coming thro' the rye Miss Latham's
voice has taken on finer finish since she
sang here two years ago. Ofthc four sou.S
given, Some Day" and Let me dream
again were especially well sung. The pa
ihctlc aud humorous selections rendered by
Mr. DtCordy were enjoyed Ivy the appreci
alive assembly. but his dramatic power did
not fully appear until he began the Third
Scene from the Merchant Of Venice, dur
ing the rendition of which he brought out
the individuality of each of the 10 charac-
ters. even in the matter Of II preserved and
distinct vocality from Portia to Shylock
The singers were greatly aided by the
sympathetic and skilltul accomplishments
of Prof. lIcyman, Misses Hudson and Gri.%

iortahly heated H. it should have been.

A significant sign Of the times is observable In
the fact that an apparently systematic movement
has been set on foot to nluce emigration from
Ohio to the tide water portions OF Virginia. Set
tiers from the present mother OF Presidents have
already bought farms in the old commonwealth
that formerly bore that proud title, after having
prOspected tie western states and territories, and
they are now trying To persuade their former
neighbOrS who are thinking Of changing their loca-
tioh tn follow their example. The Inducements
they hold out are that the climate OF eastern Viz
ginia = milder AMI better, the lands richer and
cheaper, the crops larger ana more certain, and
the markets more accessible than In the tar west.
These are important points, and If they can be
c0nclusivey established it will doubtless have the
effect Of somewhat changing the tile OF travel now
setting toward the far west in favor or the sea-
board sections.

The latest contribution TO the Chinese question
Is a letter from Com ShUfeilt to Hon. a A. SAT-
gent, dated Tientsn, China, January 1. The CON-
modOre gives it as his conviction, after xix months
residence In the city nf Tientn the political CEN
ter Of the Chinese government that deceit and I'M
trthfulness peryade al intercourse with foreign
ers; that al incradlcable hatred exists, and that
any appeal across this barrier either of sympathy
or gratitude, Is utterly idle. The only appeal or
argument appreciated is that of force. ''China for
the Chinese" Is more than ever the motto OF every
mandarin IN the empire. Our policy, therefore,
should be positive, and governed, to the extent OF
moral law, by American interests alone and fol-
lowed up by the argument which they understand
the argument OF force; pressure, not persuasion.
We should leiSiate to the extent OF our own needs
for labor. We should regulate and limit the sup
ply by the demand, and with reference TO these
people rppudiate the doctrine OF unrestricted i'm
migration.
