The Baltimore Manufacturers' Re cord very properly objects to some of the features of Dixie, a now periodical of the magazine type. The several numbers issued .have been received by the Watchman and regarded as fail ures in so far as the design of represen ting the South was concerned. The cartoons are extravagant nothings. mPat" Don an, now a journalist in Dakota, says "we can accommodate 10000 girls with husbands on ninety day's notice," There seems to be a dearth of marriageble girls in Dakota towns of 12,000 inhabitants not having more than four or five. Any attract ive girl who will go there can gueen it , ever the whole territory. What a temptation to the girls! There is a vast copper region in Tex as, discovered first by Gen. George B. McClelian, in 1852. It runs through the counties of Archer, Baylor, Knox. Hardeman and Cottle, westward of Red River. After 33 years Gen. McClelian is the leading spirit of a company en gaged in developing this mineral wealth. They have claims on 36,000 acres, and re beginning to operate on a large scale, their plant is estimated to turn out 40 tons of copper per day.

If Grover wants that much sweetness sakes-a-live nobody has any right to object. He could do much better in the age of his sweetness down South. Two hundred and eighty thousand pounds of explosives, including 49,000 lbs. of dynamite, was touched off on ihe morning of the 10th October, at the hour of 11:13, to break up Flood Rock in New York harbor. It had been publicly announced, that ihe mines, which have occupied months in preparation, were ready and would be exploded at 11 o'clock. Thousands of people were, therefore, on the lookout for and witnessed it. It was accom plished by electric wires connected ;J with all the cartridges distributed in j all parts of the rock. A little girl 11 years old pressed the button which fired the tremendous charge, which was felt far and near.

Thanks are tendered the manasre- ment of the North Central and South American Exposition, at New Orleans, for an invitation to be present and participate in the opening exercises on the 10th of November, and to "ac cept the hospitality of the Exposition during its entire term." The opening day is intended to be a tribute to 'Peace and Good will" be tween the various nations of the three Americas. "The growing importance of the Latin-American countries to the in-dustry-of the world, makes the estab lishment of a hemispherical commer cial policy between the producers and the consumers of the American conti nent highly necessary; and it is this end the coming Exposition has in view."

Those unacquainted with the arcana of Washington social and official life can hardly realize the importance of the re cent order of the Secretary of War. The order is in substance that all Army offi cers who have been for four years on de tached service must return to their regi ments. Detached service is nominally some light duty 44 Washington, in the War Department, at Fort Monroe, or as acting aids to a score of generals with out commands in time of peace. In other words detached duty is about the lightest work, and .the most delightful play that perfumed dogs (pups) of war ever indulged in. For years and years they have remained here in Washington the admired and petted of the ladies of the West End, the indulged to ruin of tailors, resteraunters, and washerwomen. The trumpet call of the Secretary of War has fallen on their ears like the knell of doom. To change their base from Penn sylvania avenue to New Mexico or Idaho is like banishment to Siberia. But the wailing and consternation occasioned by the Secretary's order is not confined to the club rooms. , These young gentlemen so long detached from legitimate military service have made strong attachments elsewhere, and the departure for the frontier will leave a void in the social world of Washington. The drawing rooms and boudoirs of the West end will blend in grief with ihe unpaid washer women over the departure of these young officers of the Army. For awhile it was hoped that their hitherto patent social and political influ ence would avail them, and cause the Secretary of War to relax his cruel order, at least in special cases. Division and department commanders argued that the Secretary of War had signed the order without giving it any personal considera tion, and that therefore a simple request, carrying both official and personal influ ence for individual exceptions, would have the desired effect. Laboring under this impresssion Gen. Sheridan, Gen. Sehofleld, Gen. Pope and Gen. Howard all requested the Secretary of War to make exceptions to the order in the cases of their personal aids. They were mis taken in the premises of their argument. Secretary Endicot had been personally considering the matter from the time he became Secretary of War, and when the time for issuing the order arrived he had mastered all the details and was entirely cognizant of what its effect would be. Besides the attention of the President had been called to the matter, and it had met with his unqualified approval. The protests and requests were alike unavail ing, for the Secretary did not intend backing down. He has set his foot down, and yesterday refused to make an excep tion m every one of the individual cases brought to his attention. As stated, the Secretary of War was fully aware of the effect of the order, and he knew just where it would strike, but was firm in his purpose. He evidently knew of the special duty abuse before he took his seat in the Cabinet, and after wards his experience as a lawyer led him to make thorough investigation before acting. He visited the headquarters of various divisions and departments, saw the officers whom the order would detach from staff duty, and compared them with the officers who were always with their remmeuts, and could see at a clance the difference between them. He saw that staff duty too long continued had a de moralizing effect in unfitting officers for field duty and depriving them of all in terest in their resiments. He held that the staff was meant for the line, not the line for the staff, and if Hue was to suffer for the sake of making it pleasant for the staff, the abuse should be remedied, firm intention Hence the order and his to stick to it. While the Secretary's order is heavily felt in military and social circles here, it must be approved by the country at large, and by every officer who has the instincts of a man and a soldier. The favoritism that has kept so many social pets in soft places in the East has had a demoralizing influence upon the army. Negro Labor. The Macon, (Ga.), Telegi-aph recently wrote of the idling tendencies of t he negro that few do six days honest labor in the week. Representative Manninc. of Miss issippi, has also been speaking of the un reliaibleness of negro labor, and his state ments are almost a surprise. He says the last census shows this that in Mississippi nearly half of the cotton raised in the State was grown without the aid of color ed labor. He is reported as saying in the New Orleans States: "White men and white women and children now go into the fields and work. And with so much better results that cot ton growers are becoming very much en couraged in the thought that they are no longer compelled to be dependent on such an unreliable class of labor as the blacks. A curious fact mentioned by Mr. Manning in that connection is that comparing the yield of cotton on ground worked bv the whites, it is found that the ground worked by the whites yields twenty-five per cent, more than that worked by the negroes. Of course the difference is that the whites cultivate it more thoroughly." Now these opinions are worth some thing, for they are the opinions of South ern men who have been reared among negroes, know their habits, understand their character, and have no unkind feel ings for them. When a Northern man undertakes to discuss the nogro in any of his relations we are sure he will make a botch of it, because he writes from im perfect knowledge. The truth is, the Northern politicians, editors and authors know but little of the South or its people, white or colored. The South is still almost to them terra incognita. They know almost as much of the north pole as they do of negro character, life, habit?. &c. They take their ideas from such works as "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and Tour gee's political and sectional novels, and from the burnt-cork "gentry" who play the negro on the boards of certain New York theatres. But is negro labor as unreliable in North Carolina as it is found to be in Georgia and Mississippi? The negro Is im provident and lazy and imitative and de voted to frm and holidays. If the country aarkcy, under the changed order of things, is as much of an idler as the town darkpv then it Is not hard to understand why the results in aussissippi are as described by Mr. Manning. The tobacco factory is th'e best school-house we have ever seen for giving the negroes lessons in regularity industry and "go." In spite of all draw backs we are much inclined to stand by negro labor. It is probably th h ua South will get for a long time to come. n timxngton mar. Comrunlcated. On Testing and Choosing a Piano. I dislike tnrustms mv personality on fllie . - ... . . . public: but, in this instance, it is obligato ry and without option. This obtrusion cannot be made vciv short but it will be far briefer than itm ght and ought to oe, in yiew of the wantoi provocation evolving it 1 When I and wifo went to New York, last July, it was sofcly to attend the con vention of "The Misic Teachers' National Association:" and -ter that to attend to various matters gi viag accession of strength to our professional ind tutorial usefulness. Of the many acts and utterances of courte sy and kindness, iieaned upon us by the very elite of the nusical profession, the high consideration and warmly demonstra tive friendship of fm. M. Thorns editor and proprietor of lie "American Art Jour nal ' were more intensely gratifying than that of all the others combined. His jour nal a weekly is jhe only vehicle of mu sical news, criticis and trade reviews in the piano line that circulates, as a recog nized authority, imong all the higher grades of the profession acd dilettanti, in all the art cehtreiof Europe from this country. With tbuj-trade" in this country, his influence is potential, because he is su perlatively intelligent, honorable, truthful and fair in discrinination. He carries ad vertisements -of all the reputable man n fac tum's of pianos, steadfastly rejecting those of the fraudulent dass, haying an intimate cognrzance of the irorking details and bus iness methods of erery firm in the country. After the convention, impelled by a desire to aid me, he gradually drew outa confession of all the real details, of my present homcfield, its inadequacy and my fixed purpose for divers reasons of yet remaining there indefinitely. Finding me philosophically resigned and stoically im movable, he eageriy proposed, for my adop tion, several kinds of musical mercantile projects, in which he could put me on the inside track, and, by the fair profits, of which, 1 could thicken my very thin tuto rial income. I emphatically rejected each in turn, because of my distaste and inapti tude for mercantile work. Lastly, he sug gested the sale of pianos : said he would show me tli e very best make of the kind of piano of the grade m general use and demand by the substantial middle class of people. (Meaning "the Llolmstrom''). And also, the lately gotten up and only holiest piano for the less affluent: and that he had influence to have the prices made to me so low that I would have a small, but legiti mate margin of profit, at a cost to the pur chaser, less than the average travelling agent pays before adding his hundred per cent; profit, by whit h process they are made "high priced'., Inj brief, his earnest and kindly importu nity overcame my reluctance; and he spent much of his valuable time making me and wife acquainted with the heads and au fait in all the details of the two manufactories, as well as taking me through the intemin able, mountainous buildings, established by Hale larger than all the combined houses in Salisbury, I think, which fur nishes pianos to the numerous bogus mak ersmakers who do not make but "let ou" like they do, and where everything is ta ken from the piano that can be without rendering it utterly worthless and unsalea ble, even to the reriest novice in sue mat ters. Holmstrom has the warmest regards and boundless respect of every piano manufac turer and artisan in Naw York: and that he is intimately known to all is vouched for fey the fact that he is the only manin the city wao can draught a scale for pfario; and any change of keyboard, in any firm, is put in shape for the artisan, by his head and hand. ' lie and his partner James as well as the President of the Schubert Company Duff are continuously working among and snperviising their men. The "Schubert" piano only one style is got ten up by a company of first class artistic, musical mechanics, to "meet a long felt want" a thoroughly honest, cheap, three striqged and overstrung piano, for those who cannot afford to pay for the elaborate carving and finish of the higher priced ones, but its qualities, both in music and Construction, are sterling aud enduring. I do not will not "push" these pianos, nor intermeddle with the operations of the travelling venders: but when any of these latter leave their track and collide with me on mine, impugning my honor, veracity and professional capacity, I mmt defend them: I have a higher regard for them than for money. A lady has bought the only "Holmstrom" I have yet brought here. The gentleman who lives in Winchester, Va., and lives on the profits accruing from an occasional sale of a Knabe pia?io, went to that lady's house, last week, to inspect (?) the piano, and at once seated himself before it and made his few peculiar and only passes at its keyboard. Northing wrong in that, but there was in his promptly uttered and unsought opinion (?) that; "It has a pretty good tone for a cheap piano," meaning an inferior one, for be continued, "but no one ought to buy a cheap piano." His next shot wa, "but the tone is better than the action: that is very bad:" and so he con tinued to detract from every point, a very reprehensible proceeding; for the lady be ing now the Owner of the piano, the intent of his gratuitous disparagement, voiced in oracular tone, was simply to pain her. For tunately, tne iadv has abundace of good sense, by which she clearly read his mo tives. So I might have treated this matter with the silence of intense contempt ; but it was really a declaration of war against my judgment and the purses of thase who are likely to need pianos.. His next remark, "I never heard of Holmstrom," so toned as to imply that tnat maker was nobody. The lady spoke, "He rotist be well known, for Mr. 1 horns commended him as the best." But he buried Thorns also by a sententious "I never heard of "Tiim either." The man foolishly overreached himself in thus vol untary uncovering his pitiable ignorance of notanie factors in nis own line of business. I give only one more remark, not because of its impertinent assumntion. but as a text to base a few suggestions on, of much advantage to those who would, intelligent ly, test a piano. He said : "I suppose Mrs. Neave like all who have taught music for years, has lost practice and can't play much, and therefore was not able to test tone and touch sufficiently." Having "sup posed," he will doubtlessly as defamers usually do soon assert invidiously. I must here say, that no one, of real musical na ture, who was early trained to read music correctly andfiuadly, ever loses their prac tice. For some, recent years, my wife's abused eyesight and unsuitable glasses, unfitted her to see music clearly by lamp or gaslight, and. gave her much inconveni ence even in daylight ; but after the work of the oculist and opt ician in Philadelphia, last June, done prior to our visiting New York, her eyesight is better than it has ever been ; and I have known but few that read music so fluently, and execute so cor rectly at sight as she can. fBut that sveh a man should utter such an invidious sur mise, and in such connection, capo the cli max of stolid mendacity. A man who, whatever fie was before he became an itin erant vender of pianos was not, nor is, any part or a musician. He can, it is true, strike, awkward It. a few crude cords and confessedly, a miserable failure as a piano tuner, because his musical perceptions are so obtuse as to make ic impossible for him to work out the equal temperament of nn octave, as the indispensible bearings to tune the whole board from 1 With such au ricular torpidity, and puerile manipulation, it seems inconceivable that such a musical cripple nonentity rather should hold so sell-complacent an underestimate of musi cal people as to prate authoritatively on the tone and action qualities of pianos! The Knabe-like many other reliable makes of pianos stands cn along established and well merited reputation : and people select from taste, memories of the pastt &c, and I would not, never do say aught against them, even when my opinion is sought. We will now examine his idea that much finger gymnastics is indispensible to a cor rect judgment of a piano. The mere play er can only judge of tone and touch : to ob tain a correct appreciation of tone, rapid playing is unnecded and may be made det rimental : Moreover, the listener can judge fully of the many distinctive attributes of tone, such as the sympathetic, the sing ing, the carrying and other powers, which the mere acquirements in techniqe give little or no cognition of. Touch or action can only be tested by the player : but, while rapid, clear-cut execution is requisite to the judgment of some points, it hinders cognizance in others. The best action for touch, to the great mass of players is neith er to resistant nor too yielding too stiff nor too pliant or soft. Again, touch is more arbitrary than tone, and the indexes to what is right for gen eral use are more clearly marked. A fan cy for a particnlar touch is often begotten O ignorance and conceit. The love ofjone style and condemnation of ell ethers is, very often, but a partiality for what the player has been accustomed to. rather the result of unbiased, intelligent judgment. A good touch for general use, is readily discerned, and I will give a few Qf the main indexes : The blow should be power ful, light, firm and smooth, not slipping away from under the fingers, but enabling you to retain and control it throughout. The repeat should be rapid and sure, com bined with a perfect check. The action should be neither deep nor shallow : in the former rapid execution is hindered, in the latter the power of the blow is injured. After testing the notes singly, press down several at the same time: if there are faults in the action, this test bring them vividly out. Very respectfully, W. H. Neave.
