Musical Recollections. Castilian Pride—Probably but a small portion of our readers were aware that Spain was at war with half the countries in South America, and has been for some scores of years. It has been a most comical sort of war, one possible only for a State like Spain, too proud to perceive its own indiscretionary humanitarian position. Spain could not endure to recognize the independence of its colonies. And it had not the strength to fight them. So there has been a cessation of actual hostilities, but no declared peace. Our government offered its mediation to the peaceful belligerents, and has been successful. But does the real or oppose peace to have been de- A good ear can one sound from another is an interval of one second between the sounds. Sounds succeed each other one ninth of a second travel one hundred feet. Repeated echoes two chantles are played one another, as part example, which reflects successively. At Ademach, in B an echo which repre-ables three times at England, there is on a sound seventeen day and twenty nine night. An echo in metta near Milan is The Oddities of Musicians. Lully labored like a feeble amateur. He sat down at the piano with his suff-box and sang and played till, by means of trying here and there, up and down, he fancied he had discovered the most suitable melody. This discovery he then communicated to some subordinate who wrote down the direction and that was the end of it. Sarti required a rare dark room, even at night but feebly lit up; his musical ideas came to him only in the stillness of night. Of Spontini, too, I somewhere read that he was able to compose only in the dark. Cimarosa wanted noise about him; he liked best to work in merry company. Salieri to excite his fancy, strolled about in the most frequented streets eating buns with lead-pencil and paper in his hand to be ready when the occasion offered. Poe composed chatted, scolded, disputed all one. Sarti help himself incapable of getting a melody unless he wins with the lady's love and had his little kittens with him. Alex Fesca if one may lend faith to eyeswitnesses reported, similar means—the bottle served him instead of a lady love, and for kittens he tried to procure a little dog! Paibello remained in bed when he intended composing—a cheaper practical means, as trustworthy contemporaries has assured me; it saves fuel, clothing etc. Zingarelli, before sitting down at the piano to compose, read a few pages of a Latin poet then, however, he worked so easily that he was able to write in four hours a whole act of "Romeo and Juliet." When Father Haydn couldn't get along he would take his rosary and say a few awesaw generally inspiration returned. In another place I read-probably of his later years Haydn sat quietly down in a chair receive its own ridiculously humiliating position. Spain could not endure to recognize the independence of its colonies. And it had not the strength to fight them. So there has been a cessation of actual hostilities, but no declared peace. Our government offered its mediation to the peaceful belligerents, and has been successful. But does the real or oppose peace to have been declared? Oh, no. Spain could not brook such an indignity. England might be so poor spirited as to knowledge the independence of her colonies; but Spain never! But pragmatical Spain would consent to a ree to "a general armistice or truce," and that is solemnly declared by the plenipotentiaries of Spain, and of Peru, Chile, Ecuador and Bolivia. But it is not a peace. By no means. And Spain has not acknowledged the independence of the allied republics, nor will she ever!—Independent MAKING NEEDLE: There is in New Haven a factory where a single machine performs the whole process of needle-making, cutting the coil of steel wire to the proper length, punching the eye-hole, count-brinking the eyes grinding the points and dropping the needles in a finished state. No manual labor is required in any of the intermediate steps of the process; after the machine has been set in motion and supplied with the necessary material. By another machine the needles are arranged for packing and by a third they are placed in the papers ready for sale. One machine will turn out about 40,000 needles per day. Until quite recently, nearly all the needles used in this country were made at Redditch and others towns in England, where a force of laborers, men, women and children, nearly equal in number to the whole population of New Haven, are constantly employed in this branch of industry. How long will timber last when completely immersed in water? This question receives a partial answer. At Ademach, in Bexhill an echo which repeats three times at England, there is on a sound seventeen day and twenty time night. An echo in the northeast near Milan is a sharp sound thirty. The most celebrated ancients was that at Rome, which accession was capable of first line of the Athenian fifteen syllables, eighty. Dr Birch describes Rosenheath Argyll is said does not now eight notes were prunetup they were this echo upon a key than the original note after upon a key at Page describes an county, Virginia, while similar curious proper gives three distinct second much the Twenty notes played are returned with pen. But the most singular this echo is, that some scale are not returned but are supplied with are either thirds fifth. There is a surprized tween two barns in Bghany county, N.Y., peats eleven times or three syllables; it h thirteenth times. By self in the centre between barns there will be a one in the direction of a monosyllable will twenty-one times. A striking and beau echo is produced in cities by the Swiss mountain continue to sing the Vachas in such time that ed notes form an accord with air itself. compose, read a few pages of a Latin poet then, however, he worked so easily that he was able to write in four hours a whole act of "Romeo and Juliet." When Father Haydn couldn't get along he would take his rosary and say a few words and generally inspiration returned. In another place I read probably of his later years Haydn sat quietly down in a chair but he must have upon his fingers the ring that Frederick the Great had once given him. In London, however, this expedition seemed to prove unsuccessful for we have a report that once the master had no inspiration left at all; for two weeks he vainly tormented himself to get an appropriate continuation to the first eight bars of an ancient Dio well known that it has been thought some connection existed between Mozart's fondness for billiards and tennins and his musical disposition. Beethoven went out into the open air into the magnificence and solitude of nature—Melhol was a lover of flowers, and John Tolmien in many gardens. Mondelsohn, it is said always had bouquets at his desk Holley required the sound of holding water on Mehle's dispenser. Auber, a good rider mounted his horse in order to gain the romantic country, where the Griffin finds everything he needs, formerly perhaps in latter years when the soldier brated composer was an old, very old gentleman, he probably composed his operas or fancies. Francis Huntin felt most inspired for compositions in Autumn. He walked up were made at Redditch and others towns in England, where a force of laborers, men, women and children nearly equal in number to the whole population of New Haven, are constantly employed in this branch of industry. How long will timber last when completely immersed in water? This question receives a partial answer at least in the example of the piles of the bridge built by the Emperor Trojan across the Danube. One of these piles was taken unbound to be petrified to the depth of three-fourths an inch, but the rest of the wood was little different from its ordinary state, though it had been driven more than sixteen centuries. The piles under the piers of Old London Bridge had been driven about 600 years, and in 1749, it did not appear that they were materially decayed; indeed they were found to be sufficiently sound to support the massive superstructure. They were chiefly elm. Wendell Phillips on Scorn—Wendell Phillips has been delivering a lecture in Philadelphia. In speaking of Thomas A. Scott, the great railroad king, he said: Your great fellow cities, whom some irreverently call Tom Scott, at the head of a company controlling $250,000,000. He places one hand on the Atlantic and the other in the Pacific; his influence extend from Saginaw to Mobile and when he calls eastward from the Golden Gate the wind from his sons' topples over a Strait Lagoon at every stride. Quiz Work—The that a gentleman of England, recently laid off that at eight o'clock evening he would dinner in a well-worn well-made suit of cloak of which formed the sheep's back at five same morning. Two shorn; the wool was wadded, roved spun and cloth was fulled, tented drived sheared and dressed were made. A past six he sat down the head of his guests in daemon colored suit—the his wager with one horse quarrel to spare. The post Regina telling story—An English Frenchman fell to fire That they might have chance for missing them were to fight in a The Englishman found may, and by June he hit the Frenchman. Whatever in Paris, observes per the English man may." A good ear cannot distinguish one sound from another unless there is an interval of one-ninth of a second between the arrival of the two sounds. Sounds must therefore succeed each other at an interval of one-ninth of a second in order to be heard distinctly. Now, the velocity of sound being eleven hundred and twenty feet a second, in one-ninth of a second the sound would travel one hundred and twenty four feet. Repeated echoes happen when two oblates are placed opposite to one another; as parallel walls, for example, which reflect the sound successively. At Ademach, in Bohemia there is an echo which repeats seven invitable three times at Woodstock, in England, there is one which repeats a sound seventeen times during the day and twenty times during the night. An echo in the villa Smio-metta near Milan is said to repeat Paying the Predicator: There are some people who sit on the supposition that their minister is a mere servant, who is to administer to their spiritual wants, confer advice on wordly matters, console them in sickness, and, in short, to ever hold himself in readiness to come and go to their bidding. Furthermore, they in many instances expect to obtain all this for nothing. They grumble when called upon to support the pastor, and he have one might infer from their actions that he and his family ought to live on air. There are dozens of hay-clerks in Wall street who receive more salary than many country and village parsons. The average annual pay of Methodist preachers in the United States is not far from six hundred dollars. Those of other denominations receive a better support, but nine tenths of all of them outside of our cities are treated by their congregations in a niggardly manner. At Ademach, in Bohemia there is an echo which repeats seven syllables three times at Woodstock in England, there is one which repeats a sound seventeen times during the day and twenty times during the night. An echo in the villa Smienetta near Milan is said to repeat a sharp sound thirty times audibly. The most celebrated echo among the ancients was that of the Notelli at Rome, which according to tradition was capable of repeating the first line of the Aeneid containing fifteen syllables, eight lines distinctly. Dr. Birch describes an echo at Rosenheath, Argyleshire, which it is said does not now exist. When right notes were played upon a trumpet, they were returned by this echo upon a key a third lower than the original notes, not shortly after upon a key still lower. Dr. Page describes an echo by FREITAG county, Virginia, which possesses a familiar curious property. This echo gives three distinct reflections, the second much the most distinct. Twenty notes played upon a flute are returned with perfect clearness but the most singular property of this echo is that some notes of the scale are not returned in their places that are supplied with notes which are either thirds, fifths or octaves. There is a surprising echo between two barns in Burlington Alleghany county, N.Y. The echo recalls eleven times a word of one or three syllables; it has been heard since time. By placing oneself in the centre between the two barns there will be a double echo in the direction of the barn and monosyllable will be repeated twenty one times. A striking and beautiful effect of this production in certain localities by the Swiss mountaineers who continue to sing their Ranz des Daches in such time that the reflective notes form an accompaniment to air itself. Dozens of hoy-clerks in Wall street who receive more salary than many country and village persons. The average annual pay of Methodist preachers in the United States is not far from six hundred dollars. Those of other denominations receive a better support, but nine tenths of all of them outside of our cities are treated by their congregations in a mingdardly manner. It is not surprising if under such circumstances, many of them lose that feeling of independence which every one placed in a public position should possess. Compelled often to take their pay in produce a bushel of wheat being sent in by one such pack of potatoes by another, as the spit moves the laymen, and obliged to keep out their stores with the aid of donations of ten grinding millies what wonder that they offered those eminences in the pulpit, and become incarnent into the character of their discourses? "Mighty poor pay, mighty poor preacher," was the response of the Indiana chronic traveler when taken to ask for the quality of his sermons. The servant is worthy of his hire. No minister should be asked or expected to work for under-pay. Furthermore, his salary should be paid him in the same manner as other men receive theirs, and not in odds and ends, as the mendicant is led from the rich man's table. When this is done, and people cease to fear that their preacher is common property for common use, more talented minis will be distributed to the ministerial calling. Caleb T. Eary—We notice that meeting of some citizens of San Francisco propose to send Caleb T. Eary to Washington to lobby again at the sale of a portion of Goat Island to the Central Pacific Railroad. This same Caleb T. Eary has for the past two years owed this offer a small bill of less than $20 for advertising an assessment notice of his famous iron mine, which he persistently accrues to way, al- A striking and beautiful effect of this production in certain localities by the Swiss mountaineers who continue to sing their Ranz desaches in such time that the reflective notes form an accompaniment to air itself. Quick Work — The story is told at a gentleman of Newberry, England, recently laid a heavy war that at eight o'clock on a particular evening he would sit down to dinner in a well woven, well-dyed, wool-made suit of clothes the wool which formed the fleece on a man's back at five o'clock that same morning. Two sheep were born; the wool was washed, carded, rubbed, soaked and woven; the wool was fulled, tented, raced, and sheared and dressed the garments were made. At a quarter-metre six he sat down to dinner at the head of his guests in a complete uniform colored suit—thus winning a wager with one hour and three minutes to spare. The past Ranz tells the following story: "An Irishman and a Frenchman had to fight a duel that they might have the better chance for missing one another. They went to fight in a dark room where an Englishman stood in the chin and by Juviel he bronched down through the darkness. When I fell this story in Paris," observes Rogers. "I saw the English man up the chimney." To Keer Flies from Burton — The Meridian Gazette is responsible for the following: "An experienced housekeeper tells a contemporary that flies may be kept out of the butter plate on the table by simple and novel expedient by planting it in a thin slice of bread, out columnwise and inserted in a perpendicular position. Whether the bread scores off the flies or not the lady cannot say, but she declares it certainly keeps them away." The New York Commercial Advertiser hones the proposed constitutional amendment to the Constitution will not prevail, for at present nobody else has the authority of Johnathan, but just as sure as its recognition is embodied in another amendment of the Constitution, the Democratic party will all go over to DeVille. To be able to discern that what is true is true without misunderstanding it, this is the mark and character of intelligence. [Swedenborg.]
