The popular ballad Listen 10 tho Mock
inc Bird, was written and first published in
1856. by Septimus Winner, Of Philadelphia,
under the nom de plume Of "Aiico Haw'
thor1e" bis mothers maiden name. 10 was
suggested incidentally by listening 20 col
ored man. Dick Milburn. known as whist
ling Dick who wandered about the city
whistling IN imitation Of hooking bird, at
the same tino stunning an accompaniment
upon the guitar. Struck by his remarkable
performance as warbler Mr.. W. said 70
him ono day, half 10 jest, "Dick, III write
YOU q song for your hooking Bird The
compass Of tho colored mans voice was
hardly an octave, and, as viii be- observed,
the melody was made very simple, 50 as not
70 be beyond his reach. The words, Listen
TO the Moclzing Bird" which ran higher,
were to be spoken by him, not sung, except
where they came within his compass, fol
lowed By the whistler's marvellous imitation
Of tho bird
The man was very good natured fellow,
but Of 50 little intellectual capacity that
though be came % Mr.. Winners music store
night after night TO learn tho words Of the
song. he was mover able TO master more than
one verse Of il. Such, however. was his
sense OF the comic and such his facility in i'm
provising lines 70 the music, suggesting ridi-
culous fancies 20 attract the crowd, that his
"MocAing Bird" soon added greatly TO Dicks
local reputation The song was published in
ballad form, and at once became very popular
and such Is its hold upon the public fancy that
although It has been sung and whistled and
played the country over for an average life
time, it still retains its place as a song Of ma
tional reputation. Philadelphia Record

wAsHISGToN's CENTENNIAL.

The great centennial pageant decreed
by the city OF New York to celebrate the
Inauguration Of Washington, viii call
forth burst OF popular patriotism, and
Sc General Harrison will be the central
figure Of the event, people will naturally
eogitste on what his position and the
character OF the situation will suggest to
him in the way of a service to his
country. He will naturally be forced TO
consider the actions of the great cham
pion of free government whose giant
form looms greater and greater IN his
tory with the accommodating years that
display him as the bulwafk against tke
personal power of kings ana The alleged
divine TigSfIit that made people the prop
erty of families and inheritance to be
taxed as if owned by monarchs
On this line Of thought President Har-
rison, being conducted over those
scenes made so memorable by the pres
ence of the Father of the Republic, will
recall various commentators and will
find himself so small in comparison with
the first President that all the cOnoeit of
the Republican party could not initiate
MIN beyond a very humble and con
scientious view of what small man
ought TO do in imitation Of an illustrious
model
Who can contemplate the great per
sonal presence of the patriot whose
genius accomplished the revolution with
out deep emotion even st this distance Of
iimes 1t is only the ignorant man who
fails to appreciate the all-peryading
grandeur of Washington that permeates
the whole world where the cause OF hu-
man freedom has ever been thought on.
At this time, when good men Of both
parties and both sections have lOnged 10
see u champion 10 assert the great vic
tory Of peace and accomplish perfect
union of the country, General Harrison
has an opportunity greater than that OF
any other President since Lincoln for
the time is ripe and the party Of the war
is the one 10 accomplish what the party
SO identified with the South would not
fully do
There appears to be two things standing
in the way of great patriotic purpose on
The part Of the Republican party. One is
that il insists still on being sectional
party, and the other Is that 1t is the party
OF high taxes These two ideas, on
which the old war party still exists, will in
time be wilted by the power Of healthy
popular opinion, but in the meantime the
centennial Of Washington's Inauguration
calls the thoughts Of the American peo-
pie 10 the fundamental principles Of our
political existence, and il ought to call
the leaders Of great victorious party to
consideration Of the present living
ideas that certainly are in accordance
with the principles Of Washington and
Jefferson. II these ideas Of the Revo-
lutionsry fathers achieved an indie
psndsncs and established a great
country, 4, is safest TO hold on to them.
1t is equally true that the Republican
party is violating them.

One OF the anecdotes of the occasion

peake Bay section of Virginia furnished
the most satisfactory and successful
supply of good eatables
