HON SEVERAL OF THE NATIONAL
AIRS ORIGINATED AND WERE ADOPTED

In one sense national music is any
music which is beloved by a nation.
Under this head would come "Home,
Sweet Home" and "Suwanee River" q
more tender lyric of home and it's
memories than Stephen c. Fosters
old Folks at Home" of which about
500 600 copies were sold. 1t was often
under interdict during the Civil War
because it made soldiers down-hearted.
Another kind is of a patriotic nature,
SAYS writer in the Boston Herald.
Often a national song is at first Of
local fame and interest, and by merit
becomes national, and may even be
spread the world over Thus, as the
voice of friendship and loyalty, AUD
Lang Syne" is known the world over
and the "Marseillaise." " which began as
n marching song for a corps of the
army of the lower Rhine, became the
universal cry of liberty in patriotic
struggles everywhere The whole COM
position came to Rouget de l'Isle in
one night, 1892.
Two French songs sung during the
Reign of Terror were in some degree
induced by American events, and these
form a preliminary to our American
music In Revolutionary times anC
previously there was but little music il
America.
During the Revolution there was NJ
American composer of note. No Ameri.
can tune during the Revolution tool
root as the one which began and ended
the war. and existed in England il
l775 and 1i76-"Yankee Doodle" Th'
words were written during the Frencl
and Indian War by DR.. Richard Shuck
burg. a British surgeon, in a sort o
parody way, on seeing some Of tn
New England troops marching into Al
bany and set to an old English dane
ing tune.
In Europe "Hail Columbia is con

pECuLIAR TEsTIMONY

An amazing amount of testimony, If
Testimony it may all be termed, was
given before the magistrate Tuesday
evening in the policy cases
Il was proper that wnat-
ever evidence was necessary TO
make out prima facie case against
tina two prisoners should have been
produced. but we are afraid a grave in
Justice was done in dragging in the
names OF persons who are not con
cerned in the case and who cannot be
brought into it.
We are unable to see. for instance,
why IL was deemed necessary to inn
Dlioate officials Of Chester. These per
lsons cannot clear themselves from tho
taint OF suspicion, and the tongues Of
the idle and irresponsible will do what
over damage is possible. The same
thing is true with reference to certain
persons of Wilmington, whose names
were used. The charge was not made
that they were implicated, but they
were mentioned in such a way as TO
allow an uncomplimentary inference TO
bo drawn.
We think that the magistrate made
a mistake in not combining the testi-
moy TO making out a case against the
prisoners. We want rascality exposed,
but it must be done in the proper way.
And il is as important that innocent
parties shall not be implicated by
innuendo. when they have no OPP
portunity to be heard in their own de-
fense. One thing is certain; the court
will never allow the sort of testimony
produced at the hearing Tuesday night
