HISTORY OF 4 WELL kNowN TUEE. There
has recently been great conflict OF au-
thorities over the origin of God Save the
Queen. and many have been the deriva-
tons given TO this time-hopored melody.
But there exists a melody, even better
known, with the history OF which not one in
ten thousand of its many singers and
whistlers are acquainted. 1t is known in
France as "lle's a jolly cog fellow, aud in
America as We won't 20 home till morn

drinking songs has bsen stolen from the
Arabs (for the use of our street Arabs).

ID. ll00). and no one knows how much
earlier. The Crusaders soon caught the
melody and set it to words Of their own.

performing selections from Mozart, IIayd
etc, grand, simple, lively and solemn,
found each selection greeted with the same
"tumultuous silence" and were at their
wits ends to find some tune wherewith to
move the stolid apathy Of the audience.
Finally the gIyer Of the concert (MOnge by
name) cried in despair GIVE them
