Two versions of the music are given here, one from Piedmont, the other from Istria (the Italian Tyrol). (It is through the kindness of Mr. H. E.

Sor Carlo Parmonico. (The Musical Master Charley.) Sor is the Roman for Signor (Mister). The idea of this Sor Carlo following the band, and getting into trouble by being tripped by fighting dogs, is very comical. Evidently the music of the song was inspired by some well-known march.

THE MUSICAL MASTER CHARLEY. 2.
While so sweetly the harmonies twined them, Master Charley followed behind them ; Now the People's Gate he reaches, And he takes a reef in his breeches
Master Charley of Holland was straying, On the street a band was a-playing; Now he loves good music dearly, When the tune goes loud and clearly: dzoo na na na Dzoo na na na

Soon the Palace of Fiani he's sighting, And he meets three doggies a-fighting. And he runs in such a flutter That he stumbles in the gutter, Crying for help ! Oh, his fine togs Into the gutter he 's thrown by the dogs !

Unkind Irene, why have you left me? You have betray'd me, you have bereft me But
A
still,
believe me,
it

does not grieve me,
For I shall soon win another prize. hundred girls or more, highborn or lowly,
Will promise

But oh you false one return the heart now That you have stolen from me with your eyes. You are weeping Oh, how I laugh at you Ha ha! !

Irene, surely 'twas a foolish
When you had
forsook
me
so,
dream yon had maybe a scheme you
;
You must have thought and
that I
would lay

you soon, whom you despise if you are sorry, And if you ever try on me your art now But oh you false one return the heart now That you have stolen from me with your eyes. But he

SONG OF THE BAGPIPERS.
When
Christ oar
Lord was born
at
Bethlehem
Altho' 'twas night, there shone as bright as
afar,
noon
a star:
Never so brightly, Never so whitely Shone the stars, as on that night 1 The brightest star went Away to call the Wise Men from the Orient
There were no foes on Earth, or warfare blazing, Beside the lion then the sheep was grazing, Safe by the leopard
WanderM
the shepherd,
With the bear the
calf did play,
The wolf so savage Would not the tender lamb
molest or ravage.
While shepherds in the fields their flocks were tending, A shining angel came from heav'n descending; When he beheld them, Straightway he told them: Hear my voice, be not afraid! Be glad, rejoice, now, For Earth has all become like Paradise, now !

She is so full of charms, my heart they madden, As any angel, too, she's pure in seeming.
