An exceedingly pretty and graceful work, not of any particular depth of thought, but a sans souci mor- ceau, which cannot fail to charm in the parior. “pijou.”” Caprice. Wyman. Neither interesting nor worthy the attention of a musician. “Lob der Frauen.” Polka mazurka, Johann Strauss. An old orchestral favorite, which. loses much of its charm In @ piano form. “Silver Slipper Galop.” Harry Sanderson. This fs one of the brilliant pianist’s dashing works of the most effective kind. It is dedicated to Mr. Edwin A. Brooks, and the title page 1s one of the neatest specimens of musical printing we have seen, Rollin Howard bas written four minstrel songs for Charley Sturges, under the titles, ‘‘As She Went Pass! By," “As We Parted at the Gate,” “She's the Loveilest Girl,” and “As Pretiy as a Pink.” It is only necessary to say (hat they are good in their own sphere, and su,gesiive of cork and bones. “Musical Decalogne for Minstrels.” James Maas, The same remark will appiy here. “The Little Wanderer,” song and chorus, Holder.

It 1s well known in diplomatic circles that the Sultan had privavely congratulated Napoleon immediately before the commencement of hostilities for his declaration of War against Prussia, The Turkish government 1s now endeavoring to wipe out the bad Impresstona left by this unfriendly act. This accounts for the letter addressed by the Sultan to Prince Charles, of Roumania, threatening Ww interfere if the outrages upon the Germans in Bucharest would be repeated. He at the same time conferred an order of high degree upon the German Consul at Bucharest for tls courageous conduct on that occasion.
