Now You Know, My Dear Mason, That I Have No Other Pride Than To Serve, As Far As In Me Lies, The Good Cause Of Art, And Whenever I Find Intelligent Men Conscientiously Making Efforts For The Same End I Rejoice And Am Comforted By The Good Example They Give Me.

Will you please give my very sincere compliments and thanks to your brother, who, I suppose, has taken the

Editorship-in- chief of, the Musical Gazette, and if he would like to have some communications from Weymar on what is going on of interest in the musical world of Germany I will let him have them with great pleasure through Mr. Pohl, who, by the way, no longer lives in Dresden (where the numbers of the Musical Gazette were addressed to him by mistake), but in the Kaufstrasse, Weymar. His wife, being one of the best harpists whom I know, is, now among the virtuosi of our orchestra, which is a sensible improvement both for opera and concerts. -

A propos of concerts, I will send you in a few days the programme of a series of Symphonic performances which ought to have been established here some years ago, and to which I consider myself in honor as in duty bound to give a definite impetus at the beginning of the year 1855. - Toward the end of January I expect Berlioz. We shall then hear his trilogy of "L'Enfance du Christ," [The Childhood of Christ] of which you already know "La Fuite en Egypte," [The Flight into Egypt] to which he has added two other little Oratorios called "Le Songe d'Herode" [Herod's Dream] and "L'Arrivee a Sais." [The Arrival at Sais] - His dramatic Symphony of Faust (in four parts, with solos and chorus) will also be given entire while he is here.
