Several of Haydn's Symphonies Were designated by
names. "The Fair Circassian," "Rosalyn'," "The
Ilertnit," "The Enamored Schoolmaster," "The
plan," 'The Poltroon," "The queen," "Landoliii
etc., were titles which indicated a little romance Im;"
eginedby Haydn for guidance in his composition. It
is regretted that these names have not been retained,

but, unfortunately, the writer receiving' the narration
rtOes not recollect to which Symphony It belouged.
He auppered that one of 'his friends, the father of a
'numerous Wilily, 11l provided with the goods of tor.
tune, was embarking, for America. It hopo'of improv
ing his eire.orostancor. The drat events of the voyage
formed the Symphony. It began with the departure..
A favorable Inca-a:gently agitated the waves. The
ship sailed smoothly out of the port, while on the
chore the family of the voyager followed him with
tearful eyes, and hts friends made Piglllb3 of farewell.
The verse! had a prosperous voyage and reached at
length an unknown land. A savage music, sluice&
' barbarous cries were beard towards the middle of the
the Symphony. The fortunate navigator made advan
tsgeonr exchanges with the natives of the country,
loaded his vessel with rich merchandise, and at length
set sail again for Barone, with a prosperous t il e d .
Here the rittt part of the Symphonj retained. But

breezes swell the sails, and they reach the port. The
happy Lather casts anchor in the midst of the cestgrAta-'
!adops of his friends, and the joy hal cries of his chit
children ano of their Mother, whom he at length em
braces safe on shore. Everything at the end of the
Semi hony is happtneria and joy. For the subject of

The present Symphotl3 - fe sappoecd by sow to be
'The Surprise," which gem its nano, :t said, from
the following anecdote. When Haydn was in. Bag.
land, he perceived that the English, who were very
fond of hie instrumental compositions,' when .the
movement was lively and allegro, generally fell asleep
during the andantes or adagio., in splte of all the
beauties he could accumulate. He therefore wrote an
andante toll of sweetness, and of the most tranquil
movement; all the Instruments seemed gradually to
die away; hut, in the middle of the softest pian'iotomo
striking, np all at once, and relaforepl by a stroke on
the kettle-drum, they made the eltimbartng audience
start, la this Symphony occars the beautiful moat.°
which was afterwards; repeated in the see.sus, us the
song of , ,Lito,hrisbandman; this is believed to be a rare
inslnco of his repeating, hiniself:'and this was in
tentional.

At a meeting of the Irish Reform League, held
on Monday night, the Chairman, a Mr. Cooke,
,aid that heretofore the reformers of Ireland had
done all that was possible for peaceable and well
disposed citizens to do to obtain beneficial-mea
sures fisr this country, and that without the aid
or countenance ofthe Catholic aristocracy, or the
lace-hunting or middle-class Roman Catholics.
That they had not been successful so far was plain
trom the dreadful, frightful, and unparalleled
, utrage upon three of their fellow-countrymen.
I Hear, hear.] They flived. to' bring about an
imalgamation and union of the workin„g classes
, d• the three countries, and to raise the despond
spirits of the honest and induatrioua work.
Jig classes of Ireland, and to atrengthen the em
vire; but he was sorry to say that, by the mpg
og of these men, the moral force of the re
ormers of England, .Irelind,
,attre Scotland,
was treated'with ebutempt. lie said this
though they had no respect for the Fenianism
of England, Ireland. or America, but he wished
*o show that they did respect and believe In the
patriotbrm of the millions of reformers in the
hree countries. He believed it was b, suchex
ortimis as they had made, and not by ph' cal
torce, that any good could be achieved. [Hear,
near.] A Mr. Carroll proposetiv a. resolu
tion approving of the conduct of tho re
formers of England and the great -mass of the
people in their earnest endeavor 'to- obtain
he respite of Allen, Larkin and Gould, whose
execution ho considered subversive of the true
interests of the Government and contrary to the'
wishes of the vast majority of the people. Mr.
Keevil seconded the resolution. He observed

-ltrilllant Scene. , Within its walls were gathered
together the youth, the beauty, the' fashion, the
gains of our city. It was tot difficult to per
ceive that, though here rind there the Monday'

different from that of the. previous evening. It

been pronounced one of the author's, finest crea

"David "Copperfield" before, but he had not pro

praises tvstowed upon. him were not unmerited.•
In *the first of the six chapters the reader Igniti

time he reached the close of this chapter he
had become fully warmed t and few who heard
them pronounced by their author last night
will ever forget the words in which David Cop

ered the wickedness f his friend. "Nevermore,
0 God forgive you;' Steerforth ! to touch that
passive hand at yours in love and friendship.
Never, never more." The closing scenes of the
second chapter were touchingly and ' truthfully
given, It was a piece of perfect acting. Peg

Mr. .reggotty moved no Moro, until he seemed
to wake all at once, and pulled 'clown ht rough

the storm, which we scented' to , hear Whistling

like a lovely flower, grows out of. the story and
lingers behind?
In reading ' Bob Sawyer's Party" Dickens was
equally at home. The characters, one and all,
seemed to live and move on the stage before us.

To chronicle the important changes. Which'
occur periodically in the world of businests le at
an times a pleasing task for the pen of the re
potter, and the more when such elianges have
become requisite in order to afford facilities for
a largo and steadily increasing business. The
removal of the well-known firm of Jolinston,:
Holloway &Cowden, wholesale agents for all the
patent and proprietary medicines, both in' this
country and Europe, is a casein point: These
gentlemen have been engaged in their present
occupation for nearly a quarter of a iitary,
during which time they kayo passed unscathed'
through several periods of commercial ritiaster,
and witnessed the downfall of many of their cora
peers, who, with less discretion, were unable t 0 ,..
stem the adverse current.. Their bwiness has
from the starting point been condueted with con
summate ability, and 'affords a fair illustration.
of what may be accomplished by untiring ,
energy and application. As time rolled on,
their trade steadily increaSed, until It mourned

In addition to this, the old Warehouse, NO.

obviate lunch, of the delay that his heretofore
neenrred. In shipping goods , daring': busy'
seasons.
In securing such a fine architectural building
lcio. 602 Arch street, the Brio have been particu
larly fortunate, as it is admirably tulaiatod to their
requirements. Having a front of 80 foot on Arch
street, and extending about-100 feet to a circular
skylight in the rear, it is large, with ample light
and ventilation.
