AMUSEMENTS.

Mr. Louis Blumenberg, the greatest American violoncello virtuoso, who will play at the Opera house to-morrow with the Quintette club, was bom in Baltimore, Md. Opportunity for his appearance in public as a mature artist occurred when Mr. Mapleson, of London, organized a concert company, it the head of which was the eminent soprano, Mme. Marie Roze.' Among the splendid concert organizations in which Blumenberg has appeared are the Emma Thursby company, the Joseffy concerts, the' Etplka Gerster company, and a season with Marie Litta. In all the large cities in which he has appeared th6 press has unanimously voted his ploying as the most remarkable on this most difficult of all solo instruments. This is Mr. Biumenberg's third season with the club.

A most pleasing portion of Herrmann, the great magician's programme, is his expose of so-called spiritualism, in which all the tricks used by the would-be medium, such as table-tapping, slat® writing, spirit cabinets, materialization, spirits lloating in the air, etc, are exposrd to the audience. During this Herrmann does all these tricks, and at the end has the gas turned up, allowing his audience to see exactly how it is done. Herrmann will appear at Naylor's opera house Friday and Saturday next, December (iih and itli, and will bring with him all the Epecial scenery and apparatus for the proper presentation of his various illusions.

The Boston Quintet te club will play tonight at Naylor's opera house. This quintette is a masterly combination in the service of the divine art. Individually, each is an artist.

From the very first chord to the close of the programme the club displayed its wonderful power of blending sounds and perfect unison, which at times resembled an organ, a brass band, and musical instruments not used by the club.

W. \V. Tilloteon's merry musical comedy is more powerful than ever, and will bo seen in "Zig Zag" next Thursday at Naylor's opera house. Miss Anna Boyd is still the shining light in "Zig Zag," and the four Little Lord Fauntleroys will create a perfect sensation. The mythological minuet will be danced aa it was last eeason.

COUNTY TREASURER'S FEES.

A Deputy Attorney General Here Col reefing Some Krrors,

Mr. A. G. Fosdyke, deputy attorney general of the state, was in the city yesterday, correcting some mistakes that have been occurring for many years aDd to which attention was called by a recent decision of the supreme court. All county treasurers receive one-half of one per cent, for collecting delinquencies. Any delinquency in the school funds, according to this decision of the supreme court, must be collected in the same manner as any other delinquency, but the fees for collecting the same must be paid from the county funds, not by the school funds. The errors that called Mr. Fosdyke here have occurred in connection with the tuition fund, the law having been ^known to apply in the otherEchool fund assessments. The amount of fees collected for the treasurers in this county from the tuition fund from 1808 to the present time have aggregated $1,172. Auditor Armstrong will have to draw his warrant for this amount in favor of the tuition fund and apportion the payment of the same to several county funds. The attorney general is having similar corrections mode with all county auditors in the state, the mistake seeming to have been general. The error has been committed by every county auditor in this county since 18GS and arose from the fact that this method of drawing warrants for the treasurer's fees is unlike the method connected with other funds aud also a misapprehension of the law. The responsibility rests upon the county auditors, because they draw all warrants for moneys iu the treasurer's office.
