 There is another matter of interest to all of us concerning which l need the assist ance of music loving friends. Prof. F. L. Grambs has received a letter from a music publishing house at the north asking for the old ants- bellu negro melody, "Billy In the Low Grounds," in order to incor- porate it in complete compilation of south ern war time songs. It cannot be found at any of the music houses, and the only hope of procuring correct copy is from some one who remembers the air and who will be kind enough to dot down the notes. Ouly the tune is desired, and hope some friend will sand me at once the air dotted down, or inform me where it can be found. By attending to this promptly favor will be conferred upon us all, for
 
 be correctly done.
