our oldest are at rest;
shall find their dust reposing,
Trace the virtues each possest; (bis)
Then, then shall we, jealous of honour, yet
Shrink not to share their grave,
For pride, o'ercoming vain regret,
Avenges still the brave!
To arms, ye warriors all! etc.

Que tes ennemis expirants

Thy sons shall cherish thee in ev'ry place

Too long cruel tyrants have trampled us under,
The chains they have forged us are riven asunder:
The Scions of Italy rise in defiance,
Her flag nobly flutters where breezes are kind:
To landward and seaward, the Foe shall be broken,
Where Heroes have gathered, where Martyrs have spoken,
And Italy's Throne shall be rooted in Freedom,
Whilst Monarch and people are all of one mind:
Then hurl our fierce foemen, etc.

THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER
The words
of the Star-Spangled
Banner were written by Francis Scott Key, son of John Ross Key, an officer
1, 1779, and died Jan. 11, 1843.
The words were written Sept. 14,
1814, under the following circumstances: After burning Washington, the British advanced towards Baltimore,
and
were met by a similar number of Americans, most of whom were captured and taken to the large fleet
then preparing
to attack Fort McHenry.
Among the prisoners taken at Bladensburg, was a Doctor Beanes, an intimate friend of
Mr. Key. Hoping to intercede for the Doctor's release, Mr. Key, with a flag of truce, started in a sail-boat
for the
Admiral's (Cockburn) vessel. Here he was detained in his boat, moored from the stern of the
flag-ship, during the
Revolutionary army.

camps of our army. Ferdinand Durang, who belonged to a dramatic company, and had played in a Baltimore
theatre with John Howard Payne, read the poem effectively to the soldiers encamped in that city, who
were expecting
another attack. They begged him to set the words to music, and he hunted up the old air of "Adams
and Liberty,"
set the words to it, and sang it to the soldiers, who caught it up amid tremendous applause.—

GOD SAVE THE KING
The authorship of this soul-stirring song has long been disputed; but the weight of authority would appear
to
show that Henry Carey wrote both the words and the air, and himself sang them at a dinner given in 1740
to cele-
brate the taking of Portobello by Admiral Vernon on Nov. 20, 1739. The earliest known printed
copy was published
in the "Harmonia Anglicana" (1742 or '43); the tune, while substantially similar
to that now in vogue, differs from
the latter in several bars, notably in the special stress laid on the word "save." In 1745, during
the Scottish Rebellion,
became widely known by being sung in the theatres as "a loyal song or anthem," its first public
presentation
at Drury Lane on Sept. 28.— Dr. John Bull and, more recently, a certain Scottish
musician named
James Oswald, have been brought forward by various writers to dispute Carey's claim.

LA MARSEILLAISE
The
exhilarating strains of the French National
Anthem, which just now are heard on every hand, were the
Rouget de 1'Isle, a young officer who was stationed at Strassburg. Dining one night in the Spring
of
1792 with the Mayor, the latter requested his guest, who at one time had been a teacher of music, to compose

success that copies were at once printed and distributed to the Volunteers, who sang it
as they entered Paris, marching
to the storming of the Tuilleries. In honor of them the delighted Parisians gave it
the name it now bears, and almost
immediately the rousing strains of "La Marseillaise" were heard in every corner of France.
The authorship

of both words and music have been disputed, but Rouget de ITsle's
claims were fully and

LA BRABANCONNE
Quite unlike the other European National Anthems is the one associated with Belgium,
although this also
sprang up in the very breath of battle. The words were written during the revolution of 1830, when
the country obtained her freedom, and the author, Louis Dechez, surnamed Jenneval, was killed in action
near Antwerp. The music
was composed by Francois van Campenhout, who was born at Brussels

commanded General Alexis
who had accompanied him on his travels, to write something to equal or even surpass
"God save the King." The General, who was a good musician and recognized as a fine violinist in several of the great
cities of Europe, and who had composed operas and much church music, set to work on words written by Joukovsky,
and so in 1883 the stately anthem was given to the world. The Tsar was so delighted with the composition, that he
gave orders that it was to be immediately adopted by the whole Army, and to be performed at all important concerts,
and even included in presentations on the stage. He presented Lwoff with a magnificent gold snuff-box set with diamonds, and commanded that the words "God save the Tsar" should be introduced into the armorial bearings of the
'omposer's family. The General became Director of the Royal Court Chapel, and filled many posts of honor.
