THE ORIGIN OF HAIL CoLUMBIA.".-In the
"Recolections of Washington" just published,
occurs the following anecdote
'The song of Hail Columbia, adapted in
measure to the Presidents March, was written by
Joseph Hopkins, of p Philadelphia, 1898. At that
time war with France expected, and patri-
otic feeling pervaded the community Mr. Fox,
young singer and actor, called upon Mr.. Hop
kinson morning and said: "To-morow
evening is appointed for my benefit at the thea
ire. Not single box has been taken and [ fear
there will be IA thin house. If you will write me
some patriotic the tune Of Presidents
March, feel sure of full house. Several peo-
pie about the theatre have attempted, but they
have come to the conclusion that it cannot be
done. Yet think you may succeed.' Mr. II.
retired to his study, wrote the first verse and
chorus and submitted them to Mrs, A, who sung
them to harpscord accompaniment. The time
and the words harmonized The song was soon
finished, and the young actor received it. The
next morning the pacards announced that Mr..
Fox would give patriotic song. The house
was crowded-the song was sung-the au-
dience deighted--eight times it called
for and repeated, and when sung the ninth time
the whole audience stood up and joined in the
chorus. Night after night Hail Columbia' was
applauded in the theatre; and in a few days it
was the universal song of the boys in streets.
Such was the origin of our national song g Hail
Columbia.
