The Festival Concert.

The Festival Concert which viii take
place In this city on the 30th OF this month
under the direction Of THEODORE THOMAS
will mark musical epoch in the history OF
Richmond, and for more than one reason
merits the most cordial patronage OF our
people. The principal artists engaged for
the occasion have established worldwide
regulations as interpreters Of WAGNER'S
music. and this, TO say nothing OF THoMAs's
orchestra, should insure the success OF the
affair. But more practical view OF the
entertainment is that 1t is intended as
the first of a series OF musical festivals
such as have been held in many Of our
larger cities. and which have proved amost
excellent investment as business matter
TO the people OF those cities. 1t is only ne
cessary to bring our country friends to
Richmond 10 demonstrate to them her adj
yantagcs as Il market. and what greater at
traction could be offered them than some
such entertainment rs the THOMAS Festival
Concert In short, what better advertise
ment could Richmond desire than wide
spread knowledge among the people that
she was taking rank as an art and mu-
steal centre? II the coming festival
proves a success, it is probable that
in future instead OF Richmond seek
ing the great artists the great artists will
seek Richmond.
Let our citizens remember that aside
from the enjoyment they may elicit from
the Festival, their encouragement OF IL will
give practical shape to measure that Will
rerder the city place Of business and plea
sure combined for the people OF the State
at large. Give the visitor elevating and
refining recreation, and there will be less
cause to complain that he seeks cities fur
tier north for business relations.

AS Beecher, So All.

HENRY WARD BEEcHER has recently been
masquerading before the country in the
character OF a Republican Free-Trader.
His utterances on the subject Of a tariff
have been such as would do credit to Mr..
HUaD, OF Ohio. A Democratic paper in
his own State, however, having warned the
Democrats to beware Of the counsel and
announcement of those who talk Free
Trade and vote the Republican ticket, Mr..
BEEcHER comes out in 4 letter, almost sour
rilous in its terms, in which he avows
10 20 be bis intention TO stand by
the Republican party whatever its na-
tional platform may declare as to the
tariff. OF course he will. So will the
Chicago Tribune, the New York Evening
Post, and the New York Times, and so
viii the half-dozen Republican members OF
the present Congress who profess to be
Revenue Reformers. Nobody ever raises
a question as TO the orthodoxy, or good
standing, in tue Republican party, OF
these so-called Republican Revenue Re-
formers; because everybody knows that,
let them profess what they may, they will
all vote next November for the Republic
can nominee for President OF the United
States.
Why cannot the Democrats be equally
wise? Why is it that there is discord in
their ranks? Because extremists declare
that none but Wattersonians are genuine
Democrats, and constantly speak in the
most disparaging terms OF the Democrats
who advocate tariff so adjusted in its de-
tails as to protect domestic industries. In
the opinion OF the doctrinaires OF the
WATTERsoN school VOORHEES,, EATON. RAN
DALI, HOPKINS, CONVERSE, RosEcRANs,
and fifty others OF the best Democrats
in Congress are not entitled to the respect
and confidence Of the Democratic party.
on all important questions these gentlemen
are In full accord with the Democratic
party, lust as BEEcHER is with the Repub-
lican party, but because they refuse to
support the MORRISON horizontal Tariff
they are denounced as unfaithful to the
Democratic party, and told in so many
words that their proper place is in the Re-
publican party-the same Republican par
ty which iellowships BEEcHER and his free
trade followers.
In view Of the vote yesterday in the
House OF Representatives on the question
OF taking up the MORRISON bill.-so many
Democrats voting "No," among them two
Of our Virginia leaders-we desire to i'm
prove the occasion by once more COUNSEL
Ing all Virginia Democrats to beware Of
subordinating the real issues Of the presi
dential campaign to the question OF redu
cling tariff-tax from fifty cents on the dol
lar OF the value OF the articles to forty cents
on the same value.

TILDEN AND HENDRICKS.
The Head and Tail Of the "Old Ticket v
Have an Internal Meeting.
New York Herald.J

New York HeraldI
Ex-Governor Hendricks called very in
formally upon Mr. TiIden yesterday at his
Gramercy- Park residence. In company
with Congressman John +. Lamb, OF In
diana. The visit was suggested by Mr..
Lamb, who called at the Fith-Avenue Ho-
tel to pay his respects to Mr.. and Mrs.
Hendricks on Sunday evening. Mr.. Hen
dricks cordially assented, and suggested q
morning call as the least formal way OF
meeting the Sage OF Greystone. They
reached Mr.. Tilden's residence shortly be-
fore noon and sent in their cards. While
they were waiting in the reception-room
number of California congressman were
ushered in. Mr.. Tilden received the lat
ter very formally, and, after a few mo-
ments' conversation, they took their leave.
When Messrs. Hendricks and Lamb saw
Mr.. Tilden they were both deeply struck
by his evident feebeness. He greeted them
cordially and inquired after the health OF
Mrs. Hendricks. Governor Hendricks
mentioned the fact that he had last seen
him in the country at Greystone. to which
MIR. Tilden replied that he enjoyed life i'll
both his homes.
The conversation then turned upon Mr..
Hendricks's European trip, and some
slight references were made to the pros
poets OF the Democratic party; but politi-
cal topics, so far rs can be learned. were
entirely eschewed. The callers took their
leave after short stay.
Governor Hendricks received Herald
reporter cordially last evening at his room
in the Fifth.Avenue Hotel. He was fairly
overrun with visitors yesterday, many OF
whom expressed a desire to see his name
at the head of the coming presidential
ticket-a wish to which he returned a
smiling negative. He said TO the reporter
that he did not care to talk about his visit
to Mr.. Tilden; that there was, indeed,
nothing OF moment TO talk about. as 1t
was of the most informal nature and had
no political significance whatever. Mr..
Hendricks said Mr.. Tiden's meeting the
California delegation was purely accidental.
Mr.. Hendricks was pleased to find Mr..
Tilden ENJOYING good health. but could
not deny that he had been struck by his
feebleness.
81 don't believe have thing left to say
in the way OF an interview" he said to the
reporter finally, with smile, "unless 1t be
TO thank the reporters for their generosity
and general accuracy in treating OF my
talks. One little error crept IN, where
was represented as saying that the tariff
was disagreeable' subject, whereas
said difficult subject to talk about when
one has been abroad for four months; but
I did not mind such slip as that, espe-
cially as the context fully explained the
meaning,o

APRIL 10, 1884.
John &. Moon, Esq, is dangerously Ill
with typhoid-ieyer at "Dunlord," inc
residence OF his mother-in-law, Mrs. Dab
ney. His disease Is OF the most malignant
character, and his condition Is critical.
Among Others who are seriously sick are
Mrs. Sinclair, Mr.. George Goodyear, John
4. Antrim, Esq, and a. +. Terrell, Esq.
Besides these, there are number OF per-
sons sick with diseases strongly tendinS 10
pneumonia. which has been very prevalent
here this spring.
The State Convention OF the Young
Mems Christian Association will assemble
in the Presbyterian church OF this place on
Thursday evening next.
An Easter german was given ut the Uni
versity last night. A band from Washing
ton was in attendance, and the affair IS SAID
to have been very brilliant.
A committee of the faculty OF the Uni
yersity have been empowered by the Board
OF Visitors 10 adopt and execute plan Tor
the furtherance Of sanitary measures at the
University.
II is understood that Mr.. peytOn, now
the agent OF the Virginia Midland railway
at Danville, Va, win be transferred TO the
junction, to take the position vacated by
Mr.. w. II. CrOckford.
Easter holiday was observed by fewer
persons than usual. 1t is surmised that
the farmers, who had good plougbing
season, and were late with their work,
held their hands to the plough on that day.
Rev. w. +. Dunaway, who was called
to the pulpit OF the Baptist church here,
having declined, that congregation Is now
on the lookout for another man. The
pulpit has been supplied by Rev. a. e..
Loving for several Sundays past.

ally iniure the fruit. QuIP.
