A MUSICAL ENTERPRISE. Correspondence of Visitor. I do think It ridiculous la the ex treme and a ahauie and disgrace U the city of RaMtfb, the capital of North Caiollu to have no bsuad of music I think every cirizm of RaU igh who has any respect for hitupelf, la ashamed of this state of affairs. To think when we want music, we have to send to a little branch town to get a band when we hava Home of the best musical talent to be fonoiin 1 hat line. We mwd to have the best band to be found anywhere, that p'ayed sweet enough to make the tears run down the cheeks of a bard hearted map; to ear nothing of the oft hearted lady who would enjoy listening to it, sitting or t-tanding by the side of her husbaud, sweetheart or lover. To say nothing of tl e pleasure and ainust mjut it would be to the children, and servants, and as the poet says "music hath charms to sooth the savage breast, and enable the wicked to turn them troui the evil of their ways." Now we want a good band to play two or three hours every evening in the capitol square during the summer. It would cheer up the feelings of all. It would make the low spirited forget their burdens of sorrow and trouble, and go back to their different toils and labor with a new feeling that life was not all toil and strife. A good band to play every evening; how it would enliven our town, and we should not feel as if everybod was dead, or asleep. And, oh! what an effect it would have on the travel ling population when they visit our town, as they are doing every day, at we can see by the daily papers There are hundreds of people in the country would think the time well spent in visiting our town for the treasure of hearing the music. Here tofore our bands have consisted chief ly of working men in the employ of others, who often objected to them leaving their business w hen they were required to play, consequently they ran the risk of losing their situation, which they could not afford to do, as thev had no m usical salary. Now 1 have a plan to suggest by which 1 think we can have a permanent band After making a slight calculation I find that 10 cents per head from, the citizens of Raleigh will be amply suf ficient to pay a band a reasonable alary for a year, and where is there a man or woman who would not be willing to pay 10 cents a year for the pleasure the music would afford. But still we have no doubt there are many who would not be will'ug to pay the 10 cents. But we are con fident there are others who will pay from 25 cents to $10, which will make np the deficiency of those who will - not pay anything. I have talked to a good many myself and have not found a single one who was not will Ing to pay $5, and most of them were working or wages. Now 1 propose that we call a meeting of the citizens ' of Raleigh or lav it before the Cham ber of Commerce, and have the mat ter attended to. Have a committee appointed whose duty it shall be to draw up ruled and regulations of the band to be appointed; also to set prices in case they should be called out of the city to play; and have such amount as a fund to pay expenses ol said band. Also a committee to can vass the city and make collections Now, I for one am willing to head the list with $5 for the sake of having music from a band of our own, and 1 know there are many more able than I am. So let us have it Why noi? A iOVKR ok Si u sic. , "Mothers' Friend" HIKES CHILD BIRTH ERSY. Colvin, La, Dec. 2, 1886.
