Mr. Curriher is a most estimable gentleman and capi talist, whom we would be delighted to see locate in Hickory. tHe visited the city seeking profitable investments and school facilities for the education of his children. Being abundantly able to supply him in both particulars, we trust he may soon locate with us. The Maticale. AVe give a resume of the Beethoven Musicale at this late date, as we are proud to chronicle this new feature in our musical and social life. AVTien we say that Beethoven's "Adelaide," "Ab sence," "Knowest Thou the Land," "Song to the Distant Beloved" and an Ave Maria arranged from the Sonata Pathetique with violin, besides two duets arranged from Sonatas by Mrs. Chad wick and two choruses were sung, we may well feel that our town is look ing up. K The literary part of the programme was full, consisting of short papers and readings on Beethoven's Life and AVorks. Miss Gertrude Hall's sketch of his life was wll condensed and to the point, being supplemented by Miss Annie Field's reading of anecdotes il lustrative of his peculiarities, and Miss Maud Shuford's description of his ap pearance. Beethoven's personality was distinctly brought out. Miss Minnie Ellis recited, finely, Schiller's Ode to Joy, the conclusion of Beethoven's Ninth or Choral Symphony. Miss May Ramsour's paper on his works was noticeably excellent. Each of the Nine Symphonies was lightly touched, the Third or Eroica dedicated to Na poleon, the Fifth his greatest, his Hamlet, with the opening phrase, "It is thus fate knocks at the door;"" the sixth "The Pastoral," the most popu lar. She showed that they, as every one of his works, have a tale of their own to tell. Beethoven aims at ex pressing an idea, poetic, distinct, capa ble of translation into words. He brought the Symphony to the fireside. In the Sonata he was the first great composer, who gave his greatest thoughts to the piano-forte. Beetho ven is King of the Symphony, and for this reason, as for the - grandeur and universality of his genius, he is the Shakespeare of music. Of music, Bee thoven has showed its depths, its maj esty, its immortality. Miss Fannie Marler gave the story of Fidelio, of which it has been said, "No other creation in tones has done so much to dignify .and ennoble love as his one opera Fidelio; no song has so expressed its beauty and its ardor as that most perfect of amatory lyrics, Adelaide." AVe felt this as Mrs. Chad wick sung it. Miss Blauche Little played, artistically, part of the Sonata Appassionata. Beethoven told Czerny that the Adagio in it was suggested to him by the starry heavens. Miss Lit tle .also sang with Mr. Self's violin ob ligato, the nice arrangement of the So nata Pathetique, in which is the earli est expression of Beethoven's view of music as a voice calling him to lead a higher life. "Absence," by Miss Fannie Marler, "Knowest Thou the Land?" bj Miss Errol Hay, "Songs to the Distant Be loved," by Miss Nettie Abernethy, two duets by Misses Maud Shuford, Annie Field and Ramsour, were all given, to the great satisfaction of the audience. After the regular program, a few old songs were rendered by the Hu manophone, a new musical instru ment, which, as Mr. Self explained, could never be controlled by one man, since it was composed of seven ladies, each representing one degree of the scale, and thus the tunes were played after the instrument was tuned and wound up. In connection with the above we will say that Mrs. Chadwiek possesses, in the highest degree the pride of her art; her happiness is greatest when la boring to inspire others to enter into it and feel its influence. The benefit of these musicales, especially to the young, is hardly to be calculated. Bee thoven's Life and AVorks are impressed upon those who were engaged in the musicale referred to, and upon thoso who listened, in a way they will not soon forget. The pupils, as members of St. Cecilia's Society, are being trained in a good school; they are taught the divine origin of music and its potency to charm. None are indif ferent to this charm, for a love of mu sic is common to all; their natural taste is being developed by close study of the classic composers. There is much to attract and interest in the quaint legends and curious histories attached to the lives of Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn, Bach, Meyerleer, Litz ami other maestros. and the pupils who are imbued with the spirit or motif of such composers, can not fail to live on a higher plane of usefulness and re finement than those who are less fort unate in their educational advantages. AATe are not awake to our advantages here; we ha va abundant riches which we do not properly appreciate, and which we. by no means, sufficiently impress upon others. If we were no't blessed with the best climate in the country, the loveliest scenery, purest water. " quietest Sundays, and most church-going ieopIe, Hickory would still be the most attractive place for I rents to send their children, on ac count of its mui-ieal opportunities. The social and intellectual life of the place is as much sujerior to what it was. as the Citv of Hickory is superior to the old "Hickory Tavern," or its sv jessor. Hickory Station. Sale.
