A concert in connection with the mu-
steal convention organized Tuesday even
ing of last week by G. E Leslie, Of Chi
cago, was given in the Methodist church
Monday evening. The edifice WAS filled
beyond its seating capacity, many having
TO stand in the aisles. The concert was
under the direction of Prof. George as
sisted by his wife The choruses were
quite we'll maintained and some Of the
quartettes, duettes and solos finely rem
dered. The convention gave evidence of
very thorough and complete training for
the short time they had been organized,
showing that all had applied themselves
closely to their work. The members Of
the convention, numbering about sixty,
having organized themselves into mu
steal society intend keeping right along in
the practice of music and will hold regu-
lar meetings hereafter, the first under the
new order Of things to take place at the
NJ. E. church next Monday evening. We
are glad to be able to note sthis musical
revival in our midst aud hope it will f.
nally bear abundant fruit.

The CiaytOn-BaIyver Treaty - Extracts
 From Secretary FreI1Dghuysen's In-
 structiOn to Minister Lowell.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 2O.-The official cor respondence between Secretary Frelinehuy- sen and Lord Granville on the subject of the Olsyton-Bulwer treaty and it's bearing on the joint control by Great Britain and the United States of all means of isthmus tran sit was made public to-day. The position of Great Britain and the attitude of the United States on the question axe shown in the follow ing extracts from MT. Frelinghaysen's Ede- spatch to Minister Lowell concluding the dis. cussion. Under date of November 22d, 1883 he says: ''You will observe that Lord Granville says that MT. Frslinghuysen still contends that the Clayton-Buiw treaty is voidable on two grounds: First, because the first sev- en articles of the treaty related to a particu- lar canal by the Nicaraguan route only. and secondly, because Great Britain has at the present day colony instead of a settlement at Belize. Lord Granville's attention should be called to the fact that this government not only holds the position to which he has re- ferred, but also holds, as stated to you in my instructions of May s,1Ss2, and May 5, 1883. that-for the purpose of obtaining the then needed capital to construct an intsr-oceanic canal by the Nicaragusn route the United States were willing to surrender a part of their exclusive privileges in canal by that route and were also willing to agree that by subsequent treaty stipulation they would join with Great Britain in the protection of the proposed Tehuantepec, ,Pan- anna or other inter-oceanic communication. and that The consideration having failed the treaty is yoidable asto ehe Nicarauguan route; and as to the other sVute Lord Granville
