900 four per cent bonds, which have
been arranged for, Before the
final vote was taken quite mum
Der Of amendments were offered,
among them one elnbodylng the
Carlisle financial scheme, all of
which we're voted down, The linal
vote stood 1874 for and l6l against
the Springer, or administration
measure,
The Arkansas delegation voted
solldly against the bill,
while the bill was up, Rep
resentatives Neil, Little and Nc
Rae addressed the House one after
noon In opposition to the pending
Springer bill, They took strong
grounds against all pending propo

EXISTING financial distress. ThcJ
were warmly applauded.

THE BONNIE BLUE FLAG" I"
History of This Air, First Sung by
MCCARTHY, an Irishman.

Editor Memphis Commercial APP
peal; l read in your paper (also in
the Scimitar) few days ago a
statement that lady, whose name
/ cannot now recall who wrote the
Bonnie Blue Flag" was at that
time in New Orleans, I do not
know how you or the ScimitNr hap
pened to give the lady credit for
the authorship, but was surprised
that you did, and further surprised
that you have not corrected the
statement. There has never been
any question about who wrote "The
Bonnie Blue Flag, nor the circum.
stances which inspired the senti-
ment,
When the convention which as
sembled at Jackson, Miss, passed
the ordinance Of secession, January
6, 1861, Harry Mccarthy, a bril-
liant young Irishman, was giving
nightly entertainments at Jackson,
consisting of songs, dances and rec.
itations, The afternoon on which
the ordinance Of secession was
passed, Mccarthy went to his room
in the old Spengler House, and com
posed "The Bonnie Blue Flag
He sang it for the first time that
night, and was compelled by the
audience to repeat It dozen or
more times before leaving the stage
Harry Mccarthy sang it in every
Southern city, Subsequent to the
war he again took to the stage, but
was required by the commandant
at Mobile, as a condition, to pledge
his honor never to sing 1.-THE Bonnie
Blue Flag again, ! knew McCar-
thy well, and was one Of a party
OF boys after the war who tried to
persuade him to sing 1t, but he
never violated his promise Every
old citizen of Jackson and Canton
knows that Mccarthy wrote the
song,
