Honor To the Author Of "Dixie."

The Confederate Veterans Association
OF Washington city have arranged TO give
a benefit performance to Daniel Decatur
Emmett some time during the month,
when he can be present. and when
Dixie" and several other Of the most
notable of our war songs will be sung.
Dan Emmett was once a member OF
Bryants' Minstrel Company. and "Dixie's
Land" was composed by him as a stage
walk around" \ Mr. Hobbs is said TO
have written the music 10 Emmetts
words, but critics have pointed out that
his work was rather eclectic than origi-
nal. However. this may be. Dixie became
a popular "walk-around" song. 1t was
in the full tide of success and popular
ity-sung, hummed. whistled, and played
by everybody-at New Orleans when tho
war broke out. and It was at once seized
upon by our bandmasters as suitable
air TO enliven soldier-life.
From New Orleans IL spread all over
the South. For the first few months OF
the war the Federal bands played the
piece. too, but Dixie never touched the
hearts OF their soldiers as 1t touched
the hearts OF Southern men. How could
It? The yearning for the "old times" in
de land OBJ cotton" met with no response
from them. Nor could they Join In the
sentiment that. in "Dixie's land I'll take
my stand 10 lib an die in Dixie"
SO in time the Federal bands ceased
playing Dixie, and finally surrendered It
altogether TO the Confederates. 1t fell
into disgrace In the North, but became
the camp-song and the battle-piece OF
our army. Every band Of ours played H..
Every Southern girl sang 1t. 1t was I'M
derstood as expressing the spirit, enthu-
siasm. yearning and resolution of the
Southern people.
Played on march It would quicken
every soldiers step. Played on the eve
of battle it inspired the men to fight
and die for Dixie.
Dixie Is dear to the Southern people.
No matter about the humbleness OF its
origin. No matter about the poverty OF its
language and sentiment. No matter where
the music came from. Dixie was adopted
by our soldier boys and baptized into
our Southern family with the blood OF
our choicest youth. 1t is therefore a
Southern song-a 'rebel" song, If you
choose. Therefore we SOutherners are
bound to think kindly of old Dan En-
nett. May the entertainment which is
to be given in Washington for his benefit
be great success and realize sum
Of money which will release Emmett
from the grip Of poverty (he is now in
an actors home at Mount Vernon, n. ",
and place him In position Of great com
fort for the remainder of his life.

A Basiness-Nan's View,

Banker William Cornell. of Buffalo who
Is said TO enjoy national reputation as
an authority on finance. says that the
duty OF every businessman in the United
States is to bring to bear upon Congress
all possible influence that will aid the
passage OF the measure recommended by
the President. In arranging for 500. o0o =
900 loan abroad President Cleveland has
again done the right thing and at the
right time. But this can only be tenn
porary expedient.
When the revenues of the government
become sufficient to pay its expenses
there will be no further occasion for a
gold panic or a panic which shall be
based upon the idea that gold is abou,
to become invisible and Improbable. or
be shipped to Europe. 1t will never &c
