YANKEE DOODLE.

The following letter has been received by
gentleman Of Boston from our accom-.
plished Secretary Of Legation at Madrid:
MADRID, June 8, 1858.
NV Dear Sir:-The tune Yankee Doodle,
from the first of my showing it here, has been
acknowledged by persons acquainted with
music to bear strong resemblance to the
popular airs Of Biscay; and yesterday pro.
fessor from the north recognised it as being
much like the ancient sword dance played
on solemn occasions by the people OF Sen
Sebastian. lie says the tune varies iu thsse
provinces, aud proposes in couple Of montbs
to give me the changes as they are to bs
found in their different towns. that the mat.
ter may be judged Of and fairly understood.
Our national air certainly has its origin in
the music of the free Pyrenees; the FIRST strains
are identicaliy those Of the heroic Da1za Is
parta, as it was played to me. Of brave old
Blscay. Very truly, yours,
BUCKINGHAM SMITH.

their fortunes to their sovereigns) no less than
E32 29l ,666 sterling. Tiberius left at his
death the enormous sum G2l, 1872, $40, which
