Mozart. Knowledge of Instruments.

Mozart's Knowledge of Instruments.
 Scarcely an instrument in the or chestra escaped Mozart's attention. A born violinist, he wrote concerti for violin and orchestra which, though without the emotional ele- ment of Beethoven and Spohr, are greatly prized. To tho tenor violin, which had been deemed worthy only of filling up tuiti passages, he gave a voice and place of it's own in the or chestra. The clarionet was raised to great importance by him, and forth with took place as a favorite solo in- strument In nearly all his scores it received especial attention; while the fresh, beautiful, and exceedingly masterful work, the quintet in A major for clarionet and strings, and the fine clarionet concerto, which he composed for Stadler, have imparted to the instrument an all age reputa- ton which can never be impaired.
 Then his sparkling genius spent it. self in writing for that fine reed in strument, the basset horn, the splen- did properties of which he deemed more suitable than even the clarionet for his Requiem" For the oboe Mozart did much, according 1t a prominence which it had never reached with any previous composer. His Opus los has rare oboe part, and in the mass No. l2" is some fine if difficult music for it-Black- ] woods Magazine.

Change of Firm.

The old and we'll known jewelry establishment of Geo. H. Curry changed hands on Saturday after noon, the purchasers, as previously intimated by the JoURNAL-MINER being that enterprising firm of jew elers, Cook & Lee, of Flagstaff. Mir. Curry has for some time realized that the close confinement incident to his business has been telling on his health, and has been desirous of being able to lay aside its cares. His successors are well known young business men of the territory, who visited Prescott a month or two ago and became impressed with the bright prospects Tor the future, as every one does who visits the town, and concluded to cast their lot among us. They own a jewelry store in Flagstaff, where Mir. Cook is also postmaster of the town. He will devote the most of his time to his business and official duties there, while Mir. Lee will have charge of the business in Prescott.
 The JoURNAL-MINrR most cordially welcomes this new firm to Prescott, as it is composed of just such ma terial as is needed here to take ad- vantage of the new condition of af. fairs upon which We are just enter. ing. From personal acquaintance with the members of the new firm we can most heartily recommend it to the public as worthy of their patronage.

Why Tea Is Dangerous.

No people in the world drink so much tea or so often as the Japanese, and Europeans in Japan easily fall into the same habit. No word is ever heard of its being injurious or a source of indigestion, but that is be- cause they take care not to extract the tannin from the tea leaves and we take great care to do so. That is why we say persons who live on tea and bread and butter have weak di- gestions. British Medical Journal.
