A Collection of Secular and Sacred Music, consisting of Part I.---The Practical Singing Class. Part II.---Glees, Opera Choruses, and Quartettes. Part III.---Anthems, Hymn Tunes, and Chants. Designed especially for Elemental and Advanced Classes, and Musical Festivals. BY S. WESLEY MARTIN. The rudimental part of this work differs from all others by its completeness of details, and by the judicious blending of the practice of the voice with beautiful melody and harmony. The vocal collections embrace only copy-righted pieces, which no one but the Publisher of this work has a right to issue. Nearly all the song and hymn books published are filled with music that no one ever sings, and are put in simply to fill the book, in order that it may appear as large as possible for the price. We can confidently state that there is not one page in the book but what is useful, instructive, and beautiful in harmony and melody. We want it to become the book for all classes, and have spared neither time nor expense in the compilation of this work.

A Collection of Secular and Sacred Music, consisting of Part I.---The Practical Singing Class. Part II.---Glees, Opera Choruses, and Quartettes. Part III.---Anthems, Hymn Tunes, and Chants. Designed especially for Elemental and Advanced Classes, and Musical Festivals. BY S. WESLEY MARTIN. The rudimental part of this work differs from all others by its completeness of details, and by the judicious blending of the practice of the voice with beautiful melody and harmony. The vocal collections embrace only copy-righted pieces, which no one but the Publisher of this work has a right to issue. Nearly all the song and hymn books published are filled with music that no one ever sings, and are put in simply to fill the book, in order that it may appear as large as possible for the price. We can confidently state that there is not one page in the book but what is useful, instructive, and beautiful in harmony and melody. We want it to become the book for all classes, and have spared neither time nor expense in the compilation of this work. Price, $1,00 per Copy.---$9,00 a Dozen. 1 sample copy will be sent post-paid to any teacher of vocal music, on receipt of fifty cents. The Publisher hereby would add, that, being the oldest Music House in Chicago, and owning by far the largest number of copy-righted pieces, (some of which have had immense sales,) his facilities are so great as to enable him to fill all orders for any publication in the United States.

UNCLE SAM'S BOYS. Words by S. FILLMORE BENNETT. Music by J.P. WEBSTER. With Energy and Firmness 1. Who are the heroes that dare the cannon's thunder? Who are the brave hearts that face its iron hail? Marching to victory legions without number, Ranks true and steady and souls that never quail! 2. Onward they came when their country's peril called them; Shouting they rushed from the hillside and the cot, Woodland and prairie sent forth its sturdy foemen, Waving above them the shining battle-blade. 3. See, from the busy mart, men of ev'ry labor, See, from the workshop, the hamlet and the cot, Marshall a million trusty heart and saber; Daring to die, but dishonor daring not! 4. Scathless, the Unions hell's storm of hate shall weather; Fear not the shock in the van our colors fly! Hail to the stars and the holy stripes forever! Uncle Sam's boys fight to conquer or die. Chorus. Uncle Sam's boys, hip, hip, hurrah! Uncle Sam's boys, hip, hip, hurrah!---- Uncle Sam's boys, hurrah! hurrah! Uncle Sam's boys, Uncle Sam's boys hurrah! hurrah!

We shall meet, but we shall miss him There will be one vacant chair; We shall Lin- ger to ca-ress him While we breathe our evening prayer. When a year a-go we gathered, Joy was in his mild blue eye, But a gold - en cord is severed, And our hopes in ruin lie. 2. At our fire - side, sad and lonely, Often will the bosom swell at re- mem-brance of the sto-ry How our no-ble Willie fell; How he strove to bear our banner Thro' the thickest of the fight, And up- hold our country's hon-or, In the strength of of manhood's might. 3. True they tell us, wreaths of glo-ry Ev- er more will deck his brow, But this <pre>soothes the anguish on-ly Sweeping o'er our hearstrings now, Sleep to </pre> day, O early fall-en, In thy green and narrow bed, Dirges from the pine and cypress Mingle with the tears we shed. 184405 <hr /> CHORUS. Air. Sop We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. Alto. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. Tenor. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. Base. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. <hr /> NEW MUSIC; PUBLISHED BY ROOT & CADY, 95 CLARK STREET, CHICAGO PATRIOTIC SONGS QUARTETTES &C.

A scene in the battle of Murfreesbro, by Geo. F. Root; price 50 cents. Good for baritone or tenor singers with strong voices that possess declamatory and descriptive powers. The accompaniment requires a strong hand, on account of the long tremolo with which the piece commences. Over the stream they went into the fight. Cutting their way on the left and right. Babylon is Fallen Song and chorus, by Henry C. Work; price 25 cents. Some singers have told us that they preferred this song to its companion--"Kingdom is Coming." It certainly becomes more and more appropriate as the strongholds of the South fall into our hands and the soldiers of "African descent" join in the fight. Look out dar now! we'se a gwine to shoot! Look out dar now! don't you understand? Johnny Schmoker. A chorus arranged by B. F. Rix; price 50 cents. All say that for a company of singers, whether young or old, nothing of its kind has ever been published like this. It contains the most irresistible fun, both of song and motion, while at the same time it is unexceptionable in all respects. Rub a dub a dub das ist mein drummel, Pilly will win das ist mein fifie. Tic nic noc fas ist triangle, Bom, bom, bom, das is mine trombone etc, Just before the Battle, Mother. Song and chorus, by Geo. F. Root; price 25 cents. Key of B flat. Tender and beautiful. Just before the battle, mother, I am thinking most of you, While upon the field we're watching, With the enemy in view; Comrades brave are round me lying. Fill'd with thoughts of home and God, For well they know that on the morrow, Some will sleep beneath the sod. Sleeping for the Flag. Song and chorus, by Henry C. Work; price 25 cents. Touching and tender, of deep interest to those whose brothers are resting on the battle field. When our boys come home in triumph, brother, With the laurels they shall gain; When we go to give them welcome, brother, We shall look for you in vain. We shall wait for your returning, brother, Though we know it cannot be; For your comrades left you sleeping, brother, Underneath a southern tree. FOR SCHOOLS, ACADEMIES, JUVENILE CLASSES. SILVER LUTE BY GEO. F. ROOT PRICE 35 CENTS. O, come you from the battle field? A dialogue duet, for soprano and tenor, by Geo. F. Root; price 25 cents. This is a scene between a soldier who, during his three years' absence, has changed from a boy to a man, and his old mother who does not at first recognize him. This is found interesting and effective either in concert or parlor. "O come you from the battle-field, and soldier can you tell About the gallant Twentieth and who are safe and well? Oh, soldier, say my son is safe, for he is all my care, And you shall have a mother's thanks, a widow'd mother's prayer. The Old Brown Cot. Song and chorus, by T.H. Tanner; price 25 cents. A beautiful poetic and musical description of many a "dear old home." These words are set by some other person. Should you write for this, specify Tanner's copy. It stood beside the running brook, Whose waters turn'd the noisy mill And close beneath the tall old oak, That nodded on the sloping hill, The woodbine creeping o'er the walls; The sunshine on the grassy plot; How beautiful were they to me When home was in that old brown cot. Daisy Deane. Song and chorus by J. R. Murray; price 25 cents. Fresh and beautiful as the "meadow and the flowers," that our young soldier so pleasantly describes --a very sweet though simple melody. "Twas down in the meadows, the violets were blowing, And the spring-time grass was fresh and green; The birds by the brooklets their sweet songs were singing When I first met my darling Daisy Deane. Within the sound of the Enemy's Guns. A remembrance of Gettysburg. Music by Geo. F. Root, price 50 cents. For a base voice, obligato accompaniments, about as difficult as the "Ivy Green," and in something of the same style.

We shall meet, but we shall miss him There will be one vacant chair; We shall Lin- ger to ca-ress him While we breathe our evening prayer. When a year a-go we gathered, Joy was in his mild blue eye, But a gold - en cord is severed, And our hopes in ruin lie. 2. At our fire - side, sad and lonely, Often will the bosom swell at re- mem-brance of the sto-ry How our no-ble Willie fell; How he strove to bear our banner Thro' the thickest of the fight, And up- hold our country's hon-or, In the strength of of manhood's might. 3. True they tell us, wreaths of glo-ry Ev- er more will deck his brow, But this <pre>soothes the anguish on-ly Sweeping o'er our hearstrings now, Sleep to </pre> day, O early fall-en, In thy green and narrow bed, Dirges from the pine and cypress Mingle with the tears we shed. 184405 <hr /> CHORUS. Air. Sop We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. Alto. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. Tenor. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. Base. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. <hr /> NEW MUSIC; PUBLISHED BY ROOT & CADY, 95 CLARK STREET, CHICAGO PATRIOTIC SONGS QUARTETTES &C.

Song and chorus, by the same author; price 30 cents.

Round her waist your coat sleeve lingers, (there's an arm inside, of course) While she gaily holds the ribbons, And drives your fancy horse. Your heart, oh, how it flutters, Your head, oh, how it whirls, One has such funny feelings When sleighing with the girls. She Sleeps beneath the Elms Song and chorus by J.P. Webster; price 30 cents. Key of A (three sharps) ranges to E above; movement andante sostenuto, and requires pure and sympa- thetic tones. The accompaniment occ- asionally touches the relative minor.

A NEW PARLOR MUSICAL GAME 96 CARDS CELEBRITIES OF THE GREATEST MUSICIANS WITH SKETCHES PRICE $1.00 I stand on memory's golden shore, And muse and dream, the autumn night, Recalling forms that nevermore Shall bless on earth my weary sight I reach in vain to grasp the hands That beckon from the further side, Where gleam the shining silver sands-- Where murmurs soft the silver side.

Calls for neatness in articulation, and joyful- ness in tone, together with considerable skill in the accompaniment.

Upon the breeze, a gentle sound Was wafted o'er the plain, And soon with fairy step and bound, Came Lottie down the lane. One by One. Song by the same author; price 25 cents. Key of G. Ranges to D above and, by choosing notes to G below. Is graceful and flowing in movement, requires good taste and appreciation to like it and perform it.

Song and quartette, by G.F. Root; price 25 cents. Key of E flat (three flats).

Ah, He kissed Me when He left Me, Song and chorus, by Lillia Dowling. Key of E flat. Ranges to E flat above. Beautiful rhythmic movement, and plain- tive and touching in the melody.

Key of G; movement moderato, Ranges to D. Somewhat marchlike in movement. The last verse only is subjoined. In the first three he is rather discouraged. What, your eyes are full of tears, love, And your lips are trembling too, And you turn your blushing cheek, love, From my and earnest view-- Can I hope? ah, no! the thought is vain, love, But the hand! why comes it near? And those murmured words--Oh joy, love, They have banished every fear. All Hail to Ulysses Song and chorus in honor General Grant, by Chas. Hayes; price 25 cents. Key of B flat. Ranges to F above.

A scene in the battle of Murfreesbro, by Geo. F. Root; price 50 cents. Good for baritone or tenor singers with strong voices that possess declamatory and descriptive powers. The accompaniment requires a strong hand, on account of the long tremolo with which the piece commences. Over the stream they went into the fight. Cutting their way on the left and right. Babylon is Fallen Song and chorus, by Henry C. Work; price 25 cents. Some singers have told us that they preferred this song to its companion--"Kingdom is Coming." It certainly becomes more and more appropriate as the strongholds of the South fall into our hands and the soldiers of "African descent" join in the fight. Look out dar now! we'se a gwine to shoot! Look out dar now! don't you understand? Johnny Schmoker. A chorus arranged by B. F. Rix; price 50 cents. All say that for a company of singers, whether young or old, nothing of its kind has ever been published like this. It contains the most irresistible fun, both of song and motion, while at the same time it is unexceptionable in all respects. Rub a dub a dub das ist mein drummel, Pilly will win das ist mein fifie. Tic nic noc fas ist triangle, Bom, bom, bom, das is mine trombone etc, Just before the Battle, Mother. Song and chorus, by Geo. F. Root; price 25 cents. Key of B flat. Tender and beautiful. Just before the battle, mother, I am thinking most of you, While upon the field we're watching, With the enemy in view; Comrades brave are round me lying. Fill'd with thoughts of home and God, For well they know that on the morrow, Some will sleep beneath the sod. Sleeping for the Flag. Song and chorus, by Henry C. Work; price 25 cents. Touching and tender, of deep interest to those whose brothers are resting on the battle field. When our boys come home in triumph, brother, With the laurels they shall gain; When we go to give them welcome, brother, We shall look for you in vain. We shall wait for your returning, brother, Though we know it cannot be; For your comrades left you sleeping, brother, Underneath a southern tree. FOR SCHOOLS, ACADEMIES, JUVENILE CLASSES. SILVER LUTE BY GEO. F. ROOT PRICE 35 CENTS. O, come you from the battle field? A dialogue duet, for soprano and tenor, by Geo. F. Root; price 25 cents. This is a scene between a soldier who, during his three years' absence, has changed from a boy to a man, and his old mother who does not at first recognize him. This is found interesting and effective either in concert or parlor. "O come you from the battle-field, and soldier can you tell About the gallant Twentieth and who are safe and well? Oh, soldier, say my son is safe, for he is all my care, And you shall have a mother's thanks, a widow'd mother's prayer. The Old Brown Cot. Song and chorus, by T.H. Tanner; price 25 cents. A beautiful poetic and musical description of many a "dear old home." These words are set by some other person. Should you write for this, specify Tanner's copy. It stood beside the running brook, Whose waters turn'd the noisy mill And close beneath the tall old oak, That nodded on the sloping hill, The woodbine creeping o'er the walls; The sunshine on the grassy plot; How beautiful were they to me When home was in that old brown cot. Daisy Deane. Song and chorus by J. R. Murray; price 25 cents. Fresh and beautiful as the "meadow and the flowers," that our young soldier so pleasantly describes --a very sweet though simple melody. "Twas down in the meadows, the violets were blowing, And the spring-time grass was fresh and green; The birds by the brooklets their sweet songs were singing When I first met my darling Daisy Deane. Within the sound of the Enemy's Guns. A remembrance of Gettysburg. Music by Geo. F. Root, price 50 cents. For a base voice, obligato accompaniments, about as difficult as the "Ivy Green," and in something of the same style. Within the sound of the enemy's guns, Within their sound are we; A gallant band of patriot sons, Fighting the battles of Liberty. A MONTHLY MUSICAL PAPER THE SONG MESSENGER EDITED BY HENRY C.

The Soldier's Dream Song Published by ROOT & CADY 95 Clark St. Chicago Henry Tolman & Co. Boston J Brainard & Co Cleveland H. N. Hemsted Milwaukee ---- <hr /> Wrap the flag around me boys! R. Stewart Taylor. Moderato Piano Forte 1. O wrap the flag around me boys. To die were far more sweet With freedom's starry emblem boys. To be my winding sheet In life I love'd to see it wave And follow where it led, And now my eyes grow dim my hands Would clasp its last bright shred. 2. O I had thought to greet you boys On many a well won field When to our starry banner boys The trait'rous foe should yield But now alas I am denied My dearest earthly prayer You'll follow and you'll meet the foe But I shall not be there. 3. But tho' my body moulder boys My spirit will be free, And every comrade's honor boys Will still be dear to me There in the thick and bloody right Ne'er let your ardor lag For I'll be there still hovering near Above the dear old flag. 1.

Hemsted Milwaukee ---- <hr /> Wrap the flag around me boys! R. Stewart Taylor. Moderato Piano Forte 1. O wrap the flag around me boys. To die were far more sweet With freedom's starry emblem boys. To be my winding sheet In life I love'd to see it wave And follow where it led, And now my eyes grow dim my hands Would clasp its last bright shred. 2. O I had thought to greet you boys On many a well won field When to our starry banner boys The trait'rous foe should yield But now alas I am denied My dearest earthly prayer You'll follow and you'll meet the foe But I shall not be there. 3. But tho' my body moulder boys My spirit will be free, And every comrade's honor boys Will still be dear to me There in the thick and bloody right Ne'er let your ardor lag For I'll be there still hovering near Above the dear old flag. 1. Then wrap the flag around me boys To die were far more sweet With freedoms starry emblem boys. To be my winding sheet. 2. Yet wrap &c 3. So wrap the flag around me boys To die were far more sweet With freedoms starry emblem boys. To be my winding sheet.
