at Iho Philadelphia Academy or Muslc,under
the management of Zimmerman A Nixon,
ha s host of new singers who will be heard
for the first tlme, and also sumo of the
leading meinbers of last Boanen. An Impor
tant engagement Is that of Madauie Fursch
Madl, the famous dramatic soprano and di
rectress of the National conservatory, livery,
thing 1 being dene te make this season of
American opera a netable one, and from
the L-reat amount e! luterest which Is known
te exist, and which is actually displayed
In the welfare of the onterprite, a bril
liant season may be anticipated. Madauie
Fursch Madl, whose popularity lu this
country Is continually growing, has un
doubtedly uniisal merits te doservo It She
ha npieared before the audiences or thl
country hovers! times. Chicago, New Yerk,
and Philadelphia audiences have seen her In
the national singing festivals, whero she as
sumed the leading role. She was born at
the small town el Bay en no, en the Franco France
Spanish frontier. Her family Is or Alsatian
origin and from this she may be said te In
herit the Oerman aptltude ler music In ad
dition te all Ibe nerve and animation that are
conceded te the French. Her father dis
covered her romarkable talent for music, and
lest no tlme In developing her musical edu
catien, and entering her as a pupil In the
Pari cnnsorvatelro. In less thou a year her
sicciallle was osiaunueu ami rcoegnlMHl
by her teachers. Heth her veice aud her
molhed were admirably adapted for render
ing proleund musical thought Se clearly
was thl recognized that I'asueleup, the great
symphonic concert master of Paris, at ence
olfered her an ongagemont with his world ro re ro
newed erchestra. Although her success was
se brilliant In Kurepe, the operattc career of
Madauie Fursch Madl really began In this
country at New Orleans In 1971, where she
remained rer a season. Returning te Paris,
she wa ongaged for the rand Ojsira, and
made her debut In "Faust," with a most pro
nounced success. Her subsequent appear appear
ance In " Kebort le Diable, " "Huguenots, "
" Frleshuu" etc., only cenllrmed the geed
impression, and before the season wa con
cluded the Parlscrltis universally proclaimed

Mr. Ilenjamln Folsom of llullale, who ha
rocelvod the appointment of I'nlted States

C. H. Webster, Is the cousin of Mrs. Clovo Clevo Clove
land. He accompanied Mrs. Fotsetn and her
daughter In their recent travels through
Europe, and also accemiauieil thetu ou their
homew-ard bound trip lu June last The ap
pointment naturally oxcites much Interest el
partly pellllcial and partly soutluiental na
lure, as the appolnteo la se closely allied lu
relationship te Mrs. Clevelnnd, and he U
ev ery w hore widely and favorably known and
designated by the familiar ephlthet of Cousin
Hen. He llgured at the wedding et Mr. and
Mrs. Cleveland as the only male representa
tive of the brlde'a family. He is said te be a
goed-hoarlod,easy-nuturodyouuggeutleman,
and thore are lew Democrats w he w Ul grudge
him his otllce or lis pecuniary compensation,
although all indications point very streugly
toward neitttlsm ou Mr. Cleveland' action
in thl apKiintineut lu the fermer days et
Mr. Cleveland's administration, he was
decidedly opjiesod te giving a relative of his
own. or any relative of the cabinet or ether
elllclal, a position, ou account el the alleged
favoritism te relatives, which he wished te
avoid. Mr. FoIbeiu has been a candidate fur
several itosltlens and for the Sheilield con
sulate, especially, ler year. He worked
hard te elect Mr. Tllden in 1S70, oxpectiiig te
obtain tills olllce as his reward, but hit plana
wero frustrated and went far astray en this
occasion. Again In lbSO he worked ler lieu
oral Hancock with the same object In view,
and wheu Uraver Cleveland was nominated,
Mr. Folsom put all his ouergios te work and
at last wen his appointment through the
election or President Cleveland. Till Is the
