SHORT WEIGHT AND BAD QUALITY OF BREAD.Sm :\u2014Well knowing your readiness at ail times to render »dl the information in your power; and irood ; I beg of you, through tho col it m 03^ your valuable paper, to inform m», whether theru he any law in existence to enforce the full weight of the nominally \u201cSix Pound Loaves\" of broad.-My family consumes a large quantity of the \u201cstaff ot lite, and it is of serious consequence to nil over, as well might he doubt of the analogy of the art* of Stntunrv nnd Painting, or of Poetry atiid Painting, or of Scenery nml Poetry.But I am of opinion, that a Kirk-going gentleman, like others in tho world, thinks that ti discovery of this result has led to the supposition, that the cultivation of music and tho other fitto arts, necessarily lend to deterioration ns to moral eflbcts.A supposition which, if true, would strike forever at tho root of all improvement.As for the \u201c old C,\" nltliotigli set in tlte key of \u201c A Major,\" common time, and Adagio mood, it is but one tuno out of tiio very many beautiful ones which tho Kirk choir favors us with every Sunday, and although \u201c A major,'\u2019 it is nothing but a minor matter after nil, ntitl not likely to have a command in the troop to which it belongs.I see my friend, although not critical in music, lias found out an Italian term for the \u201c old U,\u201d but there aro other terms for other tones, not composed by the (Viotr, such as On Capo, Crescendo, Dal Segno, Diminuendo, Porte, Piano, Karyando, Legato, Loca, Mezzo Partamcnto, and a host of other \u201c O\u2019s,\" too many to l»o mentioned hero.As for dancing, 1 have been in churches not far distant front Quebec, where that amusement is admitted into their devotions; of this, however, 1 ant no advocate.However, it is well known that music has various itiHitenco upon the human feeling, for example, ono air expresses mirth and festivity ; another is sorrowful and solemn, and inspires with tenderness and love, and another with rago and fury, \u201c Hear how Timothsus' varied lays inspire, And bid alternate passions fall amt rise ; While nt each change, tho son of Lybian Jove Now burns with glory, and then melts with love, hi*, fierce eyes with smirk Unir furv glow, jsow jigns stoat out, and tears begin to twor, Persians and Greeks, liko turns of nature found, And tho world\u2019s victor stood subdued to sound.\u201d If you will kindly faror nia hv inserting the above in your valuable journal, 1 shall take care CtutUNO.\u2014The mttitial Mutch between the Mon.treat and Thistle Curling Clubs, wits terminate!
