Once on time there lived in quiet
village little girl who was always called
Miss Bundle. She was short, stout little
girl and wore very full, loose clothes.
Her name was not really Bundle, but
she always went by that name because
some one had said she looked like a bundle
of clothes, and after that every one used to
call her Miss Bundle.
She lived with her father and mother
ut a pretty house with garden round it,
and sho had no sisters or brothers. Her

GRAND MUSICAL FESTIVAL.
Four Thousand Singers and an Or
chestra of $50 Instruments.

Correspondence Of the Democratic Advocate
New York, July LIT was the privilege
of your correspondent to have special lnvi-
tation to the exercises of the 18th Grand Fes
tival of the German Singing Societies Of the
North Eastern States, which embraced the
reception of the singers with an immense
torchlight procession, followed by three mon
ster concerts, in which six thousand singers
and an orchestra of one hundred and fifty
men participated, closing with grand picnic
on Long Island, where music, both vocal and
instrumental, as well as all sorts of games,
we're the prominent features. 1t is impossi
Bile for me to give you anything but the faint.
est conception Of the remarkable exhibition
of musical talent and the immense appreci-
ative audiences, showing the educational
effect of true artistic music upor the masses
in contradistinction to the uproar heard at
camp meeting. On the occasion of the first
concert on Saturday the vast audience of
eighteen thousand people were welcomed by
Gov. Flower, of New York. He said:
"The music here tonight viii be in the Ger
man tongue, but should duty call you to de-
fend this country of your adoption we know
You would be ready to the tune of the Star
Spangled Banner as your forefathers were
to the Watch on the Rhine. The German
has three Distinguishing characteristics which
make him good citizen-frugality, home
attachment and love of country. The Ger
man and the English, cousin races, have
pushed their aggressive way around the globe,
and the sun never sets on their domains, but
the German takes not up his foot unless he
can put it down in a better place. Love of
personal liberty has brought you to America,
and your coming here has made a stronger
nation. This land of your adoption we know
Ill Co.. k.a, hagt
government ever devised by man."
Mayor Gilroy and Wm. Steinway, the great
piano manufacturer and president of the
festival committee, also made some brief re-
marks.
The second concert, on Sunday, was the
gem of the fest The most prominent pieces
on the program were the Pilgrims Chorus,
from Tanhauser, which was rendered by four
thousand singers accompanied by the grand
orchestra, and violin solo by Miss Maud
Powell, the most eminent non. professional
violinist in America Her execution recalled
the performances of Ole Bull, Vieuxtempo,
Sivori and Wilhelm, whose mantel of talent
seemed TO have rested upon her. Words are
inadequate to express the marvellous peform-
anee.
The third concert was in all respects equal
to the previous ones. The consnmmation OF
the festival was the great picnic, typical OF
the German character, which included all
sorts of games, and again grand music and
song, to say nothing of the inevitable flow OF
the teutonic beverage. King Gambrinus
reigned supreme and the supply was vastly
more than the waters of Sans Greek would
have furnished if turned into beer. All ages
were represented on the ground, and quiet,
true social enjoyment was the order OF the
day. The festivities will long remain deeply
impressed upon those whose privilege it was
to be participants.
