BEFORE US is one of the handsomest pieces
OF music we have ever seen. 1t is the
American Volunteers Triumphant March, .
composed by our friend and townsman DR..
Edward Chaplain, and published by h. NJ.
higgins, Music Publisher, Chicago. The
title page is illustrated with beautiful designs
by DR.. Chaplain. The music is dedicated to
Gen. Morrow and his STAFF. OF the mnsic
itself We are sorry to say We know nothing.
ouavers and semibreves are sh,bboleth tina,
our lips cannot frame to pronounce. STAG,
catos and legatos are terra incognita where
We wander hopelessly. We havn't any
doubt in this case that it is all right. The
cultured musical talents of the author are
well known, and this March became grea,
favorite in the army Of the Potomac, toward
the close Of the war;.
DR.. Chaplain has two other pieces: The
University Waltaes'' and LA Maraquits
Polka which will be published soon. The
March" is for sale at our city music stores,
and the other pieces will be when they come
out
