A Musical Family.

Just as We read that at a concert in
Berryville, Clarke county, next week,
Mr.. e. Brownold will, IN giving violin
solo, use violin once owned and used by
George Washington, and now in the pos
session of Thomas B. Washington of tina
place, a friend gives Us two old documents
of interest about the musical family of
which MIR. Brownold is the head. One is
a programme for q concert at the City
Hotel in New York, 'Friday. February
2sth, $780," given by. Madame Schneider,
the vocalist. (who afterwards became
Mrs. j. Brownold), and Mr.. Runge, .
famous basso of tat day. Another, is a
contract made In 1857, by John Aug. Viii
liams, Principal of Daughters College
Harrodsburg, KY, with Madame Brown
old and her son, Prof. Fred Schneider, to
teach ''piano, harp. guitar, and voice for
one year." Of the same family is Madame
Ruhl. well known in our state as music
teacher, Max BronWold, the pianisE, and
Mrs. Amelia BroWnold Hamaker. who is
also brilliant pianist. Few family
circles have furnished as many musicians
and teachers of such marked talent as the
BroWnoId Schneider family.

US, the church has grown greatly in lar.
mony, IN numbers. and especially in
