Church Music, as a Three-fold System. by walter steele. Mr. Editor: I trust that your nu? merous readers will peruse this num? ber carefully, as it treats of ancient customs, aud will try to bring it down to the present age. In reviewing tbe history of Church music, we find that during the various ages of the Church three distinct styles of music have been developed : that peculiar to the clergy ; that peculiar to the choir ; and that peculiar to the people. Music by the people : This is the oldest style of music in tbe Christian Church. For the first three hundred years after Christ there was no other than this; the singing of tbe primitive Christians was congregational, all ta? king part in it. About tho year 350, the first change occurred?that of re? sponsive singing. The people, how? ever, still bore a purt in this music, which thus maintained its congrega? tional character. Music of the choir : Choir music was first introduced into tho Church m the fourth century. At this period a distinct class of persons was first ap? pointed to take charge of this part of public service. Through the choir, however, and through an instrumental style of performance afterward intro? duced, a great musical abuse seems to have crept into the Church, and finally the music of the theatre was bodily transferred to the Church, which ac? cordingly became the scene of great theatrical pomp and display. To such an extent was this the case, that it brought down tbe severe censure of Jerome and the Abbot Pambo of Egypt. Music of the clergy: Last in the chain of changes, the music of the clergy was introduced into the Church. Unfortunately, however, this new fea? ture involved a violent wresting of all music from the people. The entire monopoly by the clergy of Church music continued until the era of the reformation ; when Luther restored, ns the cup to the mouth, so congregational music to the lips of the pesple. In our modern Church, the choir has most nil the say?music is made by it, and Cod worshipped by it. The office of the choir has yet to be definitely determined and understood. While we do not object to a few mem? bers of a church formisg themselves together as a band of singers, lilling the position of leading or pitching the key-note that all might follow, yet wc object to a choir to undertake to wor? ship God for us?no soul, surely, can worship for another soul. No set apart body of persons can do the wor? ship for the rest of a church assembly, In worship, each individual soul must appear before its Maker, and itself perform its own act of homage. An entirely unmeaning thing is worship by proxy. The simplest feasible arrangements for a church I hold to be, a pastor and a pulpiti an organ and an organist for a inelodeon.) With this arrangement, all joining in the singing, and thereby praise Cod, but do not let us hinder and thwart devotion by making it the responsibility of a few whose only realize^ responsibility is the music. Ten Thousand Human Beinus ion as Old Bi.'ceet.?About seven hun? dred years ago there was a country in Europe called Modena, and another country lying beside it called Bologna. Some soldiers belonging to the State of Modena took a bucket from a well in the State of Bologna and carried it away. The old bucket was of no value and might have been replaced by a few cents; and it is said the sol? diers carried it away in more fun and frolic. But tho people of Bologna took it as a great insult. They de? clared war against Modena, and had :i long and bloody conflict about it. More than ten thousand human beings were butchered because of the old bucket.?Angel of Peace, Eternal Desolation.._ . mile after mile 0?'silence and death. a land accursed. In the north-west corner of San Ber uado county, lying partly also in Inyo county, and, by tho newly surveyed line, partly also in the State of Nevada, is a region paralleled by few other spots on the face of the earth. We say the world is instinct with life. Here, if the phraseology may bo par? doned, is a place instinct with death. A huge basin, whose rim is the ancient hills, stricken with the barennoss of eternal desolation, whose bosom, the blasted waste of the desert?treeless, shrublcss and waterless, save a few bitter pools like the lye of potash water, surrounded by mountains that tower thousands of feet above the sea level, itself lying 300 feet below the sea. It is a very " Gehenna "?a place of death and bones. Birds do not fly over it; animals do not enter it; veg? etation cannot exist iu it. The broad sands absorb the heat, the bare moun? tains reflect it, the unclouded sun daily adds to it. Ninety degrees in the shade (artificial shade, there is no other,) means winter. One hundred and thirty and one hundred and forty degrees, that is summer. The hot air grows hotter, wavers, trembles with heat, until nature, goad? ed to madness, can endure no more ; and then the burning blast rouses itself?rouses in its might; rouses as an angry beast, with a hoarse, omin? ous roar; sweeps mile after mile, on, ever on,over the broad reach of the desert, bearing in its black, whirling bosom?black as the midnight?dust, sand, alkali and death. Sometimes a murky cloud gathers upon the moun? tains above; then there is a rush?a warning sigh on the winds?a low rumbling iu the air; the hills quiver, the earth trembles, and a torrent, half water, half mud, bounds from the hills, leaps into the desert, ploughing chasms like river beds in the loose sand. The I clouds scatter, the sun comes again, the eternal thirst of the desert is not quenched. The raging river was only a dream. In the year 1849, a party of emi? grants entered the basin. Day after day the}' toiled on, thirsting, dying. The pitiless mountains walled them in; no escape. One by one they dropped and died. A few abandoned every? thing, scaled the mountains and es? caped. The others lie as they fell, I dried to mummies?no birds even to devour their Uesh ; no beasts to prey upon them. Wagon tires intrusted ; gun-barrels bright, untarnished. Such is the place. Mile after mile silence reigns; silence?and death. " Walled by the mountains, domed with brazen sky, he-ague after league the never-ending sand Spreads like the ocean, to the lifting eye, An aged, weary, long-forgotten land; As cursed in wrath, and stnit with God's fierce hand, No cooling mist quenches the endless thirst That rules supreme the boundless stretches grand ; Over its broad expanse no storm clouds burst With hurrying feet. It is a land ac? cursed." [J. P. H'idnei/, in Overland Monthly. The Fisiunu Frog.?Writers on natural history describe a hideous rep? tile known as the fishing frog, which angles for its game as expertly and with as great success as tho most adroit lly-fisher. lie is a clumsy, awkwurd swimmer, but nature has compensated him for his unwieldiness by furnishing him with an equivalent for a rod and line, and bait already for use. Two elongated tentacles spring from his nose, which taper away like actual fishing rods. To the end of them is attached by a slender filament, J which serves the purpose of a line, a i bait in the form of a shiny bit of mem? brane. The hooks are set in the mouth of the fisherman down below, and in j order to induce the fish to venture I within reach of them, the angler stirs I up the mud at the bottom w ith his tail. This attracts the fish, and conceals j htm from observation. He then plies his rod; the glittering bait glows in I the water like a living insect. The j dazed lish are taken in great numbers, : perfectly circumvented l>3' the trick of I the crafty angler.? The Galaxy. J Apostolical Succession.? A few 'years ago, several young clergymen j were dining at the house of a gciitlc j man who attended both the services of the Established Church and the Wes? ley an Chapel. After dinner there was a lively discussion on apostolical suc i cession, hut turning chtelly in favor of I it us asserted by zealous curates fresh from Oxford ami Cambridge. The 'eldest son ol the host, who had been a I silent listener, was at length appealed to for his opinion on the subject, when lie replied, Had the apostles foreseen what sort of characters would have claimed to he their successors, theyt would have token care to have cut oil the entail."
