But the greatest good that will grow from Mr. Held's praiseworthy arrangement will be the artistic incentive to local singers and the healthful Influence given to voice culture in a community proud in musical pretentions.

These agents have been unduly active in the collection of freaks and unsuspected forms of animal life.
