Thn Great Musical Jubtloo In Boston.
The success of the monster musics) concert
in Boston, the other weelt. Is variously
"- etinfatvd. 8r?me notice it rather a musical
failure. We can hardly think this prohald",
for many of the lust -nu-icians from various
$tatcs were there, even the great violinist.
Olb Bull, and persons tkillcd in all kinds of
musical performances, as well as good
singers by the thousand. A correspondent
of the Trilmne, we believe, mentioned one
circumstance that lie said necvsrarily marred
the harmony of the sinking to lbs cars of
the listeners. hut H was out the fault of the
singers. They oeetfpled a apace of three
hundred feet, and the difference in th<
anund reaching the hearers, at various ilia
lances, was percptiblc to the ear. Then
was however solo singing and by smallei
members, which, though leas grand, wa
more musical. The Anvil Chorus, per
formed by a bundled men, who came ii
with red shirts, produced a fine si-nsatioi
from ita novelty nnd power. The tretnen
dous accompaniment of some of the per
formanceB of deep mouthed cannon as hasa
must have been more prodigious than har
monious. It srrved, however, to (hake i
big thing, beaiing doe proportion to th
immense crowd inside the Coliseum am
the thousands upon thousand* outside \ih
eould net procure reals.
We have been favoitd with (li? Wiorwini
brief extract from a piivale letter of one o
our intelligent citizens; now on a visi
North, to whose opinion all who know bin
will accord the greatest respect, and whoi
known to possess a cultivated taste in th
harmonica) eeiener:
" Last Wednetdiy, lflth insb, 1 went t

A Change In Grant's Cabinet.
Mr. Secretary of the Navy Boric has resign
ed, and Mr. One. M. Robesok, of New /crsey
has bean appointed j? bis place. The Cbar
leston Actas says :
" Of Boric little enough' v-ss Known, in art
eonacienea; but who on earth if Itobcsnn ? 1
was believed that Admiral Porter would hav
the vacant berth when Borie stepped ortt t
the navy, but tbe gallaut Admiral has misie
stays for ouoe, and must console himself n
best he may. Of (he administration of Seen

" "the historical sketch of Macbeth, although
cursorily drawn, was not only fingUtkfty accurate
and authentic, bat as oompleto as Its relevancy
required. The defence of Lady Macbeth
against tha vulgar belief of bor being an
I execrable fiend, full of bad passions and bloody
purposes, was eloquent iy sustained by excerpts
j from the play, quoted in recitatira by the lecturer,
with much dramatic p?wor and effect.
But it is a misapplication of the term to cat'
this exposition of the character tiV Macbeth a
lecture. We rather inciino to Stamp it as an
analytic review of the play, in whitfa the ealient
features of the piece and its leading personages
were so critically scrutinised, that wa
actually compassed the operation ot the machinery
of tha one, and delected the secret
motives and impulses of the others. In fact,
the rlcill of the artist succeeded in giving us a
mimetic representation of tbia splendid tragedy,
said to bo only second to ttas Rntnonlde*
of Attchvlbs. The arrangement and development
of the disquisition was sgrh a*V> prosoct
to tha mental aye of the audlope* a panursniio
view of the scenes and incidents of the etag*
origioal, rendered, if w* may use tb* expresI
sion, somewhat realistic, by the declamatory
interludes and Interlocutory dialogue* introduced
by way of illustration.
