NEW YORK. June Gas usual Tuesday and in
the absence of important mails the market has been
very quiet besides which the auction sales of flannel
attracted the undivided attention of representatives
of all markets. The close attention throughout the
day of an unusually large number of important deal
is the best evidence of the deep degree of interest
The sale passed off in fairly satisfactory manner
and though the prices realized not in many in
stances what they should have been they might have
been worse. The offering was widely distributed

Verdi, the great Italian composer,
when engaged on his masterpiece 'Gl
Troyatore," stopped short at the pas
sage of the "Miserere," being at loss
to combine notes Of sufficient sadness
and pathos to express the grief Of tho
prisoner Manrico. Sitting at his
piano in the deep stiffness of the win
Ter nights his imagination wandered
back to the stormy days of his youth,
endeayoriug to extract from the past
a plant, groan like those which es.
capped from his troubled breast when,
forsaken by the world, he saw himself
constrained to smother the flame OF
rising-all in vain! One day, at Milan,
he was unexpectedly called to the bed
side of a dying friend, one of the few
who had remained faithful to him
alike in adversely and prosperity.
Verdi, at the sight of his dying friend,
felt lump rise in his throat; he want
ed to weep, but 50 great was the
intensity Of his sorrow, that not tear
would come to the relief of his an
guish. This state of paroxy5m mar
tyrdom could not last He must give
vent to his grief. In an adjoining
room stood a piano. Verdi, under one
of those sudden impulses, to which
men of genius are frequently subject.
sat down at the instrument, and there
and then improyised that sublime
Miserere Of the Troyatore. The mu-
sician had wept' Those of the compa-
nv who were not already kneeling in
