—— NEW. YORK : HERALD, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 29; 1872.~QUADRUPLE * SHEMt. Willian, Spanish and German works, while | The Musical Seasom and Its Principal devotes ‘himself principally to the introduction of water colors of the French, Italian and English schools. In every respect ‘the representation of foreign art will be broader and more select than at any former period. The influence of this foreign art on native work and taste is for the most part good. It forces our American artists to labor harder than they otherwise would, and by ‘affording them good example of technical skill it bas on elevating tendency on their work. From whatever point of view we regard the ‘coming art season, we only see grounds for congratulation on the evident and rapid prog- ress we are making in the highest branch of human industry. iz Scintillations of the Religious Press— Woman as a Pious Motive. The fact cannot be disguised. There is a strong moral and religious as well as physical element now being infused into the religious discussions of the day. When a noted orator of the East was asked, ‘‘What was it that made England the terror of the ocean and the land?” that orator answered—‘‘It was whiskey.” ‘The inquiry now is ‘What is it that makes the pious element paramount to every other in our social organization?’’ The answer is— *Woman.” ‘In all the progressive moral and religious movements we find at this day that woman is taking the initiative—the pioneer position. Itis to be seen in the advanced stage of the temperance reform, in the admir- able systems of Sunday schools, in the educa- tion and the elevation of the unevangelized children of the streets, in bringing the way- ward and the astray back to the paths of rectitude and virtue, in clutching from the grasp of the arch-fiend those timid specimens of mortality who, once ‘on the downward track, know no right nor left until they find themselves in the dark ocean of hopeless perdition. When woman takes the helm of morality you may be sure the sterner craft will be directed in a proper course. We are pleased to learn from the . Christian Union (Brother Beecher) that Massachusetts is coming well to the front in the work of enlarg- ing the opportunities of woman. The domi- nant political party at its last State Conven- tion (in Massachusetts) committed itself posi- tively to woman suffrage. An able plea for the admission of women to Harvard College is made. A new College for Women has been founded at Northampton by a woman’s muni- ficent bequest. In his editorial capacity Mr. Beecher says he is appalled atthe proposi- tion to furnish, by wholesale, writers for the daily and weekly press as well as of books, and in his desperation the eloquent preacher and hearth-side advocate exclaims, ‘If the mania for authorship is encouraged to become en epidemic, Heaven help the editors and the public." A good many editors undoubtedly need Heaven’s help, but should the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher proclaim the fact aloud? In the meantime, let the good work of the good women goon. They have proven themselves the best of artiste, writers, poets, lawyers (if ‘we are to believe Shakspeare), of warriors (if we are to believe the history of Joan d’Arc), of mothers (if we may, as we must, credit the Obristian theory of the mother of the Saviour of mankind). : The religious New Year of the Israelites will be ushered in on Wednesday evening next, and this festival, as well as that of Atonement, following ten days later, is observed more generally than any other throughout the whole year. The synagogues, according to the Jewish Times, are dpring those days filled with de- vout worshippers, the prayers are recited with trembling fervency, and the words of admoni- tion, as they fall from the lips of the spiritual teacher, find open hearts and docile minds. These festive days, continues the Times, are the embodiment of the cardinal and funda- mental idea of the whole Jewish religion, the cepresentative force of the grandeur and sublimity of the world-redeeming doctrines annunciated by Jadaism—‘‘accountability and reconciliation.” This might be regarded as embodying both the Grant and Greeley political doctrines, omitting for the time being the phrases of ‘addition, division and silence."" ‘Rosh-Hashanah”’ will, no doubt, be faithfully observed this year by our Hebrew fellow citizens. The Catholic Freeman's Journal, always fresh, piquant, pertinent, impudent and forcible, gives us its views upon religious tests in poli- tics, apropos of Francis Kernan for Governor. Seizing the view of the religious objection to his nomination, the Abbé says:—‘Mr. Ker- nan’s religion was no factor in the motives of his nomination.” And he never wrote a truer line. Good citizens nowadays do not ask what a man’s religion is, but only inquire, “Will he make a good, faithfal, upright officer, a straightforward friend as well as servant of the people?” The Liberal Christian (Rev. Dr. Bellows) has asensible article on “Presidential Jour- nalism,” in which the editor recurs to a recent visit to England, and says he was much impressed with the general excellence, the in- telligence, the dignificd and wholesome tone of editorial writing in nearly all English journals. We were (continues Dr. Bellows) equally im- reased with the fact that, as newspapers, the journals do not for a momen! bear com- = with our own. Necessity has not yet jught Englishmen either to ‘run’ a newspaper or to sine, hotel, That they will in time learn to do as well, if not better than their cis- Atlantic children, be regarded as cer- tain, But the time is oot yet. They must walt for popular education, ‘auesiabisent, a more general and familiar intercourse with for- Ay enough. But a write intelli- lean jo could aftord to go 10 rohool to 2 journalists afford to school ‘them for a good while. % The Independent has a bloody chasm article concluding as follows :— Just elect Mr. ee and throu; fg him Deine the democratic party pentane Southern ex-Fe the demo- rn ex-rebels, the Ku thieves and 10wdies, the ba who have de- oe be reconciled Aenatum of good will, ‘until th 4 get ha fag Dd among themselves. | fhe Boston Pilot (Catholic) has an article von the American press, in which the fatter is * graciously acknowledged to be @ ‘great insti- ‘tution;"’ but at the same time the editor fears that the press, or part of it, 1s, under the name of enterprise, ‘doing more harm to the morality of the Republic than any other im- mediate influence.” Mr. Donohoe probably fails to remember that ‘‘vice, to be hated, needs only to be seen.” Our country religious contemporaries keep on the even tenor of their way, maintaining the pious sentiment—absolutely the most es- aential in the Union—to the best of their ability, Representatives. The profound impression created by the three first concerts of the renowned pianist Rubin- stein, and the scarcely leas famous Polish vio- linist, Wieniawski, is likely to be productive of remarkable results in the cause of art in this city. There were a few cavillers at first who expressed doubts about the appreciation of the public for a. standard of music so classical and severe as these eminent artists introduce. It was said that the public do not understand, and therefore would not support concerts which were not’ devised in what is called the popular vein. This ‘word popular is a term often used but seldom understood. As far as it relates to music it means to some the absence of all art and the constant introduc- tion of popular ditties and dance tunes. People of this kind would preter ‘‘Shoo Fly" to “Bel Raggio,” or a polka mazurka to a Chopin concerto.. But the true aim of the artist should be to educate the public until they can appreciate and find pleasure in the best forms of music. This was the task undertaken by Theodore Thomas years ago, and he never faltered in his arduous . labors until he popularized the names of Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, Mendelssohn and Wagner. Earnestness of purpose and unre- mitting perseverance on the part of a director can make any musical work popular, and when this work possesses real merit its popu- larity will be lasting. Nothing can be more gratifying than the prospects of the opera season, which opens to- morrow with Mcyerbeer’s last work, ‘‘L’ Afri- caine.” Mme. Pauline Lucca, the reigning star of London, Berlin and St. Petersburg for many seasons, will make her American début on that occasion. Her Selika is considered one of the best réles in her extensive répertoire. With her will appear Mlle. Leveille as Ines, Signor Abrugnedo as Vasco di Gama, Signor Moriami as Nelusko, and M. Jamet as Don Pedro. On Wednesday evening we are to have “Foust,” with a cast comprising Mme. Lucca, Senorita Sanz, Signor Abrugnedo, M. Jamet and Signor Sparapani. Miss Clara Louise Kellogg, of whose talents on the lyric stage no. American opera- goer needs any information, makes her first appearance, after an absence of two years, as Linda, in “Linda di Chamouni’’—a rile eminently suited to her. With her Signor Vizzani makes his début. The company is completely new, and selected from the two opera houses in London. Even the minor parts will be filled. by new comers, the excruciating singers of former years being dispensed with this time. The chorus and orchestra are unusually strong, and many novelties are promised in the mise en scéne and appointments. The subscription has already reached. higher figure than ever was known before at the commencement of a season, and everything points towards.a bril- liant and saccessfol term of Taller term of Italian opera.
