, Boston, June 17.
Crowded as wa yesterday' concert at the
Coliseum, it was nothing compared to the almost
incalculable mass of human being assembled
there to-day. It is estimated that to-day's as
sembly numbered fully 50,000, aud I ' should say
this is rather under than overratod. In fact, so
great was the ninli that shortly after 3 o'clock it
became necessary to close the doors and refuse
admittance to all coiners after that time. I have
been informed that the receipts of yesterday,
exclusive of season tickets, were 172,000. If so
(and I do not doubt it, by any means), to-day's
receipts muet have been over $100,000.
There were fully ten thousand people refused
admittance, even with ticket. In short, so
orowded was the Coliseum that, to use a popular
expression, you could not drop a pin. The heat
in the galleries was almost insupportable,
although the building is excellently ventilated.
Many Indies fainted, and It was witn the utmost
exertions that they could be removed from the
building- through the colossal mass of hum vn
beings.
This throng of to-day was partly owing to its
being a holiday, the anniversary of the Uattlo of
Bunker Hill, and partly beeauij the programme
was a popular one, madu up chicHv of such
pieces as arc well known to everybody who has
music in his soul. I append you the programme
for perusal:

Mr. (lilniore was the conductor for the day,
and it is but just to say that he performed his
task exceedingly, well. His appearance in the
orchestra was the sigual for considerable enthu
siasm. -The
overture to Fra Diavolo, which opened
: the day's programme, was played gloriously; the
opening drum solo was beaten by about thirty
drummers, while the fifty trumpeters performed
. the solo in the beginning of the allegro adinl
. rably, especially the second time. Enthusiastic
' applause was bestowed upon the performers of
the overture.
Luther's "Judgment Hymn" received ample
justice from the hands, or rather the lungs, of
the chorus. "The Grand Peace March." com
poecd for this occasion (and wo hope played for
this occasion only) by Bignor Janotta, is exceed
. ingly trashy. It is a poor, we may safely say a
very poor, imitation of Meycrbeor's "Coronation
March," from The Prophet, aud though it was
well enough played by the orchestra aud band,
numbering some eleven hundred performers,
failed to make any impression whatever. "Let
us have peace," and not be obliged to hear such
trashy compositions. In the original programme
for the festival it was stated that this march was
to be written by some European composer; why
tiignor Janotta was selected we cannot conceive.
Where were Messrs. Elchberg, Koppitz, G. F.
Bristow, Fairlamb, and others too numerous to
. mention?
"Robert, tol quo j'alme," gave Madame Parcpa
Rosa a fine opportunity to display her wonderful
voice in short, the only voice that could
' have been found in America to fill this vast edi
fice. , The aceompanimcut, though well played
by a small orchestra, suffered somewhat from
the want of one or two harps, for wlilch Meyer
beer had written it originally. Madame Kosa's
effort was warmly applauded.
. Then followed Verdi's "Anvil Chorus," given,
as before, with chorus, orchestra, anvils, and
cannon. The effect was tremendous, as it
. always is, and an encore was demanded and
f promptly given. So great is the desire to hear
this popular piece aud the national air, "The
Star-Spangled Banner," that it has been resolved
... to introduce these two morceaux into every pro-
; - gramme. " Vox popnli, vox inundi."
s Converse's "Overture Trlomphale," on "Ilail
Columbia." was next on the programme. Its
construction shows a clever musician, and we
consider the overture a fine work, though in
some parts it is rather dragiry. It opens with an
andante in common time, changing to 6-4; this
Is followed by an allegro alia breve, in which
some of the modulations are rather queer. A
short poco nieno follows, and ' then the chorus
sines "liaii uoiumDia, with artillery accompa
t ninient." : With this the work ought to close, for
this part is really immensely effective. But the
: composer has added a kind or coda, which
rather lessens the effect of , it. The overture
cheated a marked impression, and received con
siderable applause.
The second part opened with Bilse's "Grand
March," played by the full baud. It was well
iriven. thouirh the teiuvo was too slow.
Then followed the "Star-Spaugled Banner,"
, Mme. Parepa-Rosa singing the solo after the
first sixteen bars. In the last verse Mine
Parepa-Uosa held out a ion" B flat (in which key
the air was sung), and It was truly wonderful
how the note was heard above the chorus of
. 10.000. the baud of 1100, the oriran and the
cannon. The effect was electrifying; the
audience cheered and insisted upon a repetition,
which was elven.
Mr. Arbuckle next played a trumpet solo
.finely..- lie has good tone, uud plays witu con
hirlcruhle exuressiou.
"The Harp that Once Through Tara's Halls"
was next suug by tue luu eiiorus very niceiy.
4'lotow's overture to MrwkUa was then per
formed bv a reed band of 500, aud but for some
unnilr niceolos and E Hat clurlonettcs, was well
' glve and received a good share of applause.
The concert then concluded with the One Hun
dredth Psnlui, given by chorus, organ, orchestra,
, and cannon with great eft jet. .. .
- To-morrow we are to have another classical
programme, aud on Saturday the festival will
rloe with a concert by the childreu of the pub
lic schools.

the greater seems to become the anxiety of the
people to aiieuu; auu icm. '

Her Majesty's screw frigate Inconstant, 40(16
tons, iron bunt, witu an outer sueatniug ot wood,
unarmored, 1000 horse-power nominal, ltt guns,
is now lying; at Portsmouth. She is a bold.
handsome-looking frigate, with a bow as long
and fine, proportionately to tonnage, as that of a
racing cutter.
The necessity for swift ocean cruisers experl
iinAnl In IliA I'nltoH Sitiitaa Muw rlurlmr tliA
progress of the wnr between the North and tho
South led to the design and construction of un
armored vessels of war of which the Wampanoag
mas' be taken as the type of the class from au
American polut of view, as tho Inconstant repre
sents the same description of vessel from a
British point of view. As swift unarmored
ocean cruisers, they are specially Intended to
destroy the mercantile murine of a hostile
power, and to prevent, as lar as may no possible,
losses of a like character in their own mercan
tile service. The great features of tho designs,
both la America aud in this country, consist.
therefore, of extreme proportion and fineness of
form with large engine-power, In : order
to secure hltrli speed under steam; a
hirge spread ot cauvas being also intended to
be given la order to enauie tne snips to keep
the sea under sail alone, aud so leuirtben the
time during which the ship could keep in her
bunkers a supply of coal for emergencies. Tho
Americans were tuo urst to adopt tue principle
of swift, unorinored ocean cruisers, and in tho
ulllcliil and private notices of these ships pub
lished in America no secrt was made of the
fact that it was against the English merchant
navy they were likely to prove specially ser-
viceublo in the event of war any time between
the two countries a conclusion we owe to tho
exploits of certain Confederate vessels during
the struggle between tho North and South.
The power lor mischief of such vessels lu these
days, when the speed of ships f war is neccs
unrll - ruled to some extent by the weight of the
defensive armor they carry, was so self-evident
(hut or own naval authorities a.ouce coufoswed
tho Importance of the new principle al ptcd In
the American navy, and the advantage of add
ing vessels to the English navy which could
cflcctually compete with the Wampanoag and
her consorts. In designing the Inconstant the
chief points kept in view have nocessarily been
similar to those held by the American authorities
high speed under steam, largo coal-carrying
power, a large spread of canvas to enable her to
keep the ca, and to Insure manoeuvring power
under fall.
In addition, she was Intended to carry an
armament greatly exceeding In power that of
the American ships. It was also felt that since
she was intended to keep tho sea for a con
siderable time, tho maintenance of her high
speed necessitated the adoption of somo eillclcnt
dan for the prevention of tho fouling ot her
mil below the water-line, and that this could bo
best accomplished by covering her bottom with
copper sheathing; at tho samo time, owing to
the ship's great length, fineness of form, and
great engine-power, her structural strength
required that she shonld be built of iron.
Hence it is that the Inconstant is an Iron-built
ship, having an outer coating of wood planking,
and upon tho latter tho copper shcathUz has
been fastcucd, without fear of any galvanic
action resulting. In her principal dimensions
the Inconstant measures: length between per
pendiculars, 3;J7 feet 4 Inches; breadth, 51 feet
l inches; mean draught of water, 23
feet 8 Inches; burden in tons, 400(1; load dis
placement, 55.r)0 tons. She is about two feet
I.- i- ., .1 f 'tru .... ..... .. i i .... i,
Pompanoosuc, the largest vessel of the American
Wampanonir class, and her Joad displacement Is
also greater than that of the Pomnanoosuc by
about 1G0O tons. She is a loftier ship ont of the
water than the American ships, as she will carry
her main-deck guns 11 feet and 12 feet out of
water, while the Wampanong aud her consort
only carry their main-deck guns 7 feet and 8
feet elenr of water. This must obviously give a
great advantage to tho Inconstant as regards the
power of fighting guns In a seaway. Rc e.'ting
here to the form of tho Inconstant In con
nection with her estimated speed, it may be
observed that she is not so fine in her lines
ns the Wampanoag, yet she is exceptionally
fine for a ship of war; and that while in the
Warrior the proportion of length to breadth
does not exceed 6 to 1. in the Inconstant
it is nearly 0V to 1. As far as form and
proportions arc concerned, therefore, the condi
tions appear most favorable to the attainment
by tho Inconstant on her trials of a very hljrh
speed. The intended speed of the Inconstant is
10 knots per hour, nnd the engines manufactured
by Messrs. John Pcnn and Sou, are of such a
character as to render the attainment of this high
rate of speed almost a certainty. The engines
are of 1000 horse-power nominal, and are Identi
cal In their arrangement with those of the Belle
rophon; and like those will Indicate a power ex
ceeding WW horse, ihe Jnconstaut has been
furnished with greater boiler power than the
Bellerophon, nnd, considering that the latter ves
sel Is nenrly 40 feet shorter, 0 feet broader, has
about 1700 tons greater displacement than the.
lornier, nnd has been driven at a speed exceed
ing 14 knots in a six hours' sea trial, it Is but a
fair assumption that the Inconstant, with her
additional boiler power, will fully attain her esti
mated speed of 15 knots.
The Wanipanoas class were intended to at
tain about the same rate of speed, but in all In
stances, except that of tho Wampanoag herself,
tney nave tailed to exceed thirteen knots, lno
Madawaka, a duplicate vessel to Wampanoasr,
and with duplicate boilers, only reached Vi-7
Knots; and the uuauanooga, a smaller vessel
but with great engine power, only reached thir
teen knots.
Mr. B. F. Isherwood, the Chief of tho Bureau
of Steam Engineering at Washington, in his
reply addressed to Mr. Gideon Welles, the Secre
tary of the United States Navy, to Commodoro
Alden'e report on the trial of the Wampanoag,
draws attention to this loss of speed by the
Mndawaska and the Chattanooga as compared
with tho 12-7 knots per hour made by the first
named vessel, and distinctly asserts this loss was
owing to tho engines of the two vessels being on
the direct action principle, while thoso of the
wampanoag were geared.
