The Times, in its issue this morning, says:— It 1s now evident that the country has returned @n adverse answer to Mr. Gladstone's appeal. The elections in Ireland may show unlooked for results, ut nothing is likely to restore the losses of the diberais in Great Britain.

The case was then carried trom the Ctreuit Court of Connecticut to the Supreme Court of the United States, and tne full Bench, Justice Davis alone dissenting, affirmep the decision of the Vourt beiow, and Judge Nelson wrote the opinion, Five of the justices, compris- ing ® majority of the Court who concurred in that affirmation, are how upon the Bench, and the parties interested in his city are not’ especially disturbed by the promise of a “new sat, aithough they want the facts understood, A TERRIBLE BOILER EXPLOSION, NoRFOLK, Va, Feb. 6, 1974. * The steam boiler of Baird & Roper’s shingle mill at Deep Creek, eight miles from here, exploded last evening, killing four persogs and badly scald. tn four otherds c AMUSEMENTS. Philharmonte Re! real—Bristow’s New Symphony. The recent public rehearsal of the representa- tive instrumental society of this city for their fourth concert of the present season tuok place yesterday afternoon at the Academy of Music, The audience was large and satisfactorily appreci- ative, Three orchestral works were rehearsed— Bristow's “Arcadian” symphony, Wagner's “Faust’* overture, and Gade’s overture, ‘Michael Angelo.” We reserve detailed remarks on the last two works for the occasion of the concert. Gade and Wagner have been made familiar to the New York pub- Ne long ago by Mr. Theodore Thomas, and their works, interesting ‘as they may be to & musi- cal surgeon, can bear the postponement of a de- tailed criticism. But ® genuine American work of Positive merit and dealing with purely American subjects, written by an American musician (al- though we always cling to the theory that music is entirely cosmopolitan), claims even at a Phil- harmonic rehearsal something more than a mere passing notice. ie audience yesterday evidently entertained the same opinion, Jor their attention seemed to be concentrated upon the native work. The symphony movements :—1. Allegro appassionata; 2, Andante Religioso; 3, Allegro, ma non troppo; 4. Allegro con spirito, ‘The idea, or story (it is always better to have a utstinetive, easuy defined subject in orchestral works, without going to the extent of mere “pro- gramme” music), which Mr. Bristow wishes to illustrate in this magnificent work is the grandest Of all subjects in real American life—which novel- ists have ever endeavored to portray in this country—the trip across the Plains of an emigrant train to their cherished “Arcadia.” ‘The first move- ment is indicative of the commencement or initia- tory scenes o! the new “Pilgrims’ Progress.’’ In the restless, yet distinctively defined thoughts, actions and kaleidoscopic movements of the prairie caravan, the music is @ faitniul photogropher, and the various scenes of the jJour- ney are delineated with an artist’s skill, Recollections of home mingie with present fatigue of body ; but occasionally the latter overpowers the frame of the emigrant, and the music now aud then sinks down to a description of utter lussitude. But for the moment only. The irrepressible in- stinct of the prairie emigrant to “go West,’ in Jace Of all imaginable obstacles, surges up through the orchest-a, and the appassionata element is clearly defined. Here the clever treatment, inde- pendent oi the wealth of melodic beauty with which the work abounds, of the composer is shown. Anxiety, restlessness, fatigue and constant watch- fulness are limned in the strongest possible colors and effects, The quiet pastoral measures of the second move- ment typlly the rest of the emigraat train on the prairie when the sun sinks in the horizon. Here the composer takés the old “Evening Hymn’? of Thallt’s, a musician of Queen Elizabeth's time—not in its original canon form, but with modern graces and improvements. The treatment of this ancient chorale is simply exquisite in point of variety and originality. rists in symphonic forms—they are, to @ great extent, myths—may find fault, an some yesterday ventured to join such ranks, with the freedom of thought aud scope of treatment in- dulged in by Mr. Bristow in the third movement— @ genuine scherzo, But the composer here to illustrate an Indian war dance and night attack on the aforesaid train. It is @ lively, characteristic, well instrumentatea num- ber, of the genre of the of Mendelssohn's Scotch symphony or “Midsummer Night's Dream’ or the Queen Mab” of Berlioz. Bits of orchestra- tion, like morceauz from the ball of the Culinaire Philanthropique, are delicately interwoven in this delicious number. The last movement represents the emigrant train arriving at its destination, its Western “Arcadia,”’ ‘and is the most enjoyable movement of the symphony. The entire work re- fects the highest credit on the renowned com- poser and on the society for presenting before the metropolitan public a vivid musical picture of Western life. After the ‘Desert’ of Felicien David we piace the “Arcadian” symphony of Bristow. Musical and Dramatic Notes, Martmon isa Mxture for the summer season at Covent Garden. Mme.

The Bowery Theatre has again been sold, this time to pass away from the possession of the “gods” who have composed the greater part of it8 nightly audiences of late years. 1t was pur- chased yesterday at private sale by Mr, William Kraemer, who intends to devote it to the German drama, This will be unwelcome news to many persons, not only of the classes who have latterly resorted to the Bowery for highiy-seasoned dra- _ matic food, but also of the class whose memories revert with enthusiasm to the days of Hamblin as manager, “when Kirby died’ and Forrest and Booth rivalled each other in tragic display upon its boards, CALIFORNIA SENATORIAL CORRUPTION. SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 6, 1874. The testimony taken before the Legislative Com- mittee of Investigation concerning the charges of corruption in the United States Senatorial elec- tion last night, tends strongly to support the asser- tion that no money or promises of reward were ‘iven by Mr. Booth or his friends to secure or in- uence his election. The investigation is very searching, covers a wide range and thus sar Borack, Who is the complainant, has fatied to establish the charges made. be resumed next Monday.

CINCINNATI, Feb, 6, 1874, While in two of the counties where the woman's temperance crusade originated the war against | whiskey selling is suspended in consequence of | legal injunctions the movement continues to | spread throughout Southern and Central Ohio. At Ripley, Brown county, 100 women are enrolled | under the leadership of the wife of the ex-Colonel ; and Methodist preacier Granville Moody. Six of the saloon keepers there have acquiesced in the pledge, but about twenty others refuse to make any change in their business. Immense mass meetings are held nightly in the Ripley churches. ‘The crusade has reachea Athens. In the county of the same name a league of ladies was formed yes- terday. Dio Lewis has offered his services, but the ladies think they can work best without outside aid. The most prominent ladies in the town are active in the movement, ‘The druggists and saloon keepers anticipate calls from the ladies and an- nounce their intention to receive them courteously. | For a long time the liquor traffic of Athens has been confined to wine and beer, and the women now propose to enforce total abstinence. Pur- suant to a call 100 women met yesterday to consider the new phase of the temperance question. A Committee on Organization was ap- pointed. The ladies who called the meeting and those who attended occupy high social positions, and the tenor of the addresses made was to the effect that “they were willing to be led by God in whatever paths he may make plain to them.” From the spirit of the meeting it may safely be | | predicted that a movement will be made after the | Washington Court House plan, but there will be a decided oposition to it among the politicians who are interested in the result of the coming spring elections, The republicans of Dayton are afraid of the crusade, and, of course, the democrats take no stock init. Dayton has over 500 saloons, THE LADIES OF OXFORD, Butler county, have been circulating the total ab- stinence pledge this week, and have secured the signatures of three-fourths of the male popula- tion. The druggists have all signed contracts sat- isfactory to the ladies. The saloon keepers are very uneasy and in hourly expectation of finding prayer meetings in progress in their tap rooms. At Lyndon, Koss county, a temperance meeting has been held and the crusade endorsed. The war does not seem to make much headway in towns with more than 5,000 population. The timid- ity of the politicians nas much to do with this fact. There is also some opposition among the aristocratic ladies to kneeling on the dirty Noor of a barroom. At Springueld the ladies are banded together, persuading men to sigu the pledge, but they have not as yet invaded the “grogeries.” ‘The Sunday law is being rigor- ously enlorced there. Seven saloon keepers were heavily fined last Sunday jor its violauon. The wives of topers are putting in their lawsuits. At Leesburg, Higulaud county, two more saloon keepers have signed an agreement to quit the business, their stuck of liquors being emptied into | the street, amid songs, prayers and rejoicings. Elwood & Brother are tne only dealers lett, and | they have posted notice warning trespassers against legal consequences, The crusaders have | raised @ large lund, and are confident of a com- plete triumph. The procession of ladies in London, Madison county, yesterday numbered 140, and was con- stantly surrounded by at .east 500 men and boys, mostly idle spectators. They bombarded the leaa- ing saloons in the city with their hymns and pious supplications. Business men there complain that the excitement cuts down their sales fifty per cent. The saloon keepers of London have tormed a mu- | | tual protection association and say they will never | Les up. The salvons in several small towns in | Franklin county have been visited by the ladies, | fold there are no signs of the crusade yet in Colum: us, with AT MIDDLEPORT, MEIGS COUNTY, the ladies have converted the druggists and are unremitting in their attention to the saloon keepers. At Washington Court House a Mrs. Frasier recovered $143 damages yesterday in her | suit against James Sullivan, a saloon keeper. To- | day the same woman commenced suit against | | Charles Beck, proprietor of the beer garden, the | | only liquor dealer whom the women have tailed to | conquer, and who is no ionger disturbed, on ac- | count of the injunction served aga‘nst the women and the destruction of their tabernacle. ‘The women at Chillicothe are reported to be or- ganizing-for the system ot pious raids. The photo- | graph car that was being fitted up for a tabernacle at New Hollund, Pickaway county, has been dis- mantied, and the women are not marching up and | down the streets.

The anti-intemperance | Strife is raging in that usually quiet little burg | | with @ vehemence and determination not sur- | passed by that of any other city. This morning a | | large and enthusiastic convention was held in the Presbyterian church, and it was unanimously re- | solved that the demon Intemperance should be ex. | terminated, Alter drawing up papers to this | | the ladies, numbering seventy-two, effect and comprising the wives, sisters and mothers of the best and most respected citizens the town, formed in a _ procession and to a mournful dirge to whiskey, wended their | | Way through the streets until arriving at the sa- loon of Joe Craig, where a halt was made. How- ever, they here found the doors bolted against them, and all entreaties, eloquence and exhorta- tion proved unavailing. The “open sesame" could not be joand. The unworthy Joe was mexoravle, and nothing was left for them to do but take out their frustration in tervent prayer and singing. ‘The next place visited was a notorious ranch run by one Mrs. Kenode, in an aileyway; but here, however, contrary to expectation, they were cor- dially weicomed, and had little ditficulty in persuad- ing the erring Amazon to abandon her nefarious tramc, Other places of bibulant dispensation were called upon, but I believe all, with the | single exception mentioned, retused to aceede to auy terms, However, the earnest workers in this | glorious cause will convene again this evening at | the Methodist church, aud measures more erfec- tye will be contrived. The whole town isin a state of great excitement and the best results are | anticipated trom the movement.
