Whon the musicians wont away, the placo was a8 barron as bofore. Chtoago could do o well us8 any oity in the Unlon. As to the moans of having such n fostival, It would bo practicablo to got a good chorng, Ono could be raised of 500 or 600, and,with tho ald of ‘othor oitios,—Milwaukoo, Fort aVayne; and ' olso- whore,—a chorus of 800 could bo'organtzad, This number was as Jargons could bio conirolled. With n cliorus numboring thousands no works of art_could bo successfully producod.. With n mixed chorus & dc[imrtmnnt could be resorved for. male olioruses, which had hihorto boou ignored. Some goad names would be nacesaary for auch an - occnsion, Nobody could be seslectod’ more distloguislied than = 8ir Alehacl He refused to go to. Boston on nc- count of the caunon and bells arrangoe- mont, For light mwusle, the engagement of Mr. Birauss would be of great vaiuo, and if he could not como, some othor distiuguishod Eurapean would. - All that remained would be to ongego efther a very popular prima donna or & strangor Lo the country. The time such o fostival wonld occupy wauld ba at least one weok, light musio for mntineoa and malo chorusoes, eta., for evenings. To sc- complish this, tho suslatanco of tho citisos, as well a8 of practicul musiclans, would bo necos- sary. A‘!;unrunum fund of eny $100,000 must bo “raisod to_ meot tho oxponsocs -in ' cose tho festival should not bo a “flnancial’ success. Buch & fund would bo nooded main- l{ to give o seourity to . peoplo rom abrond, . The names of tho bost men in this and other Btatos wonld be roquired. All that remalved to do would be fortheappoint~ mont of a committee to offcot permanent organ- ization, % E ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTED. Mr, John C.
