The Btory of a Popular Song.
A correspondent gives the following
nceountof the singing of" Father, Come
Home," in ono of the music balls of
London :
Having reached the ball wo paid nn
admission fee of sixpence. There was
a very neat stage, with gaudy drop scene,
side wings and a tolerable good orchestra.
In the stalls sat the chairman, to keep
order over as motley nn audience as ever
was seen out of the gallery of Victoria
Theatre. " Costers seemed to predomi
nate. All appeared plentifully supplied
with porter, and all were enjoying their
pipes to such an extent as to make the
place almost suflbcaling, for there must
have been nn audience of neatly live
bundled A nigger " walk around "
was just being finished, and the shout s of
"encore," whistling, and stamping of
feet made the ball perfectly bewildering
A name was announced from the chair
man, which wn could not catch, and
amidst clapping of bands and stamping
of feet there was a buzz of ''This is the
song! " The waiter called loudly, any
more orders ! " and these being taken
and duly executed, all seemed to settle
clown quietly to listen to the song. There
was the symphony, and another buzz of
" This is it ! " and wo began to feel
anxious. Presently a female came in
front of the curtain, amidst great applause,
and commenced ; Father, dear father, '
&c. Every word was distinct, and site
sang the ballad with great feeling. In
order, however, to fully describe the
eceiio which followed c:i h verse, it is
necessary to give " little Mary's song:
' Father, dear father conio home with me now,
The clock iu the steeple, striked cue 1
(?oi!f! )
Y n promise!, dear father, tli:.t yon woali come home
As soon as your day's work was done.
Our lire has ii ne out our house is nil dark,
And mother's been WAtchlns flnco tea,
With poor little Benny so sick in her aims,
Wlrh no one to help her but mo.
Come home, come home, come home,
r lease Either, dear fatke.-, come homo.'
Attho conclusion of the last line the
drop scene drew up, disclosing the father
hitting at the door of a public house, in
n drunken, bemuddled state, with a pipe
and a pot beforo him. Little Mary was
trying to (bag him from his seat, at the
i6nnietiiiio pointed to a curtain behind
-as she took up the refrain from the lady,
and toiichingly sang, " Come home,' &.o
This other curtain was now drawn aside,
disclosing a wretched room in which was
the mother with the. poor, sicklv-looking
boy in her lap, and in the act of feeding
bitn with a spoon. Simultaneously with
the drawing of trie curtain, the lime light
was brought to bear upon the tableaux,
giving them a truly startling effect.
After a moment or two the act drop
caino down, and the lady proceeded :
" Father, dear fithor, come homo with mo now,
Tho clock in the. steeple strikes Two I
teont', goiif )
The night hs grown colder ni;d Donuy Is worse,
But he has been culling for you.
Indeed he is worse, mother fays ha will die,
Perhtips before morning shall dawn,
Ami ttil was the message ho sent mo to bring
Come quickly, or ho will be i;one.
Come homo, come home, come home,
I'lease lather, duar titLor, como home.''
Tho act drop rises again, and now the
child has hold of tho pewter pot, trying
to take it from tho drunken parent, and,
as sho continues tho last two lines,
" Como home," &c, the other curtain is
drawn aside, and wo next see tho child
stretched out on its mother's lap. and as
it just raises its little bead and t ills back
with a grasp, with the lime light reflect
ing 6trongly upon it, there was a reality
about the whole, terriblo to view. Sobs
were heard coming from all parts of the
ball, coming from tho female portion of
the audience, whilo tears trickled down
many a male cheek. We have seen
" Susan lloploy," " Tho Stranger,"
"Jane Shore," ' East Lynne," and other
effective pieces played, but never before
did we witness such a set-no of general
crying. Tito principal feature called to
mind the picture ot tho Sister of Mercy,"
with tho dying child in lief lap, and
death was fearfully natural. Even the
lady who sang tho soug was affected, and
could scarcely proceed with tho third
verso :
Fs.tb.er, dear father, some home with me now,
The clock In the steeple strides Throe I
(g..ng, gong, gong.)
The house Is so lonely, the hours are so long,
For poor weeping mother and me.
Yes, we are aloue poor Bunny is dead,
And touo with tho angels of light,
And these are tho very last words that ho said
I want to kiss papa good nlht! "
Come home, como homo. come home,
I'lemo father, dear til her, come homo."
Again the drop rose, disclosing little
Mary on her knees appealing to her
father, who, with tho pot elevated, is in
tho act of striking her with it, as she
Kings' " Como home." and then the back
curtain draws aside, showing tho mother
praying over a child s coflin. But now
the sobs burst still more freely, and two
females were carried out fainting. The
scene was truly harrowing, and we
gladly turned our eyes away.
An additional verse sung jubout " Poor
Benny " being with the angels above
Tb drop rose; th father, sober vow, u
weeping over tho coffin with the mother,
and Utile Mary on her knees singing,
" Homo, home, father, dear father's come
home." At this moment the curtain was
drawn aside, and little Benny is suspend
ed .over the coffin with wings, smiling
down upon them and pointing upwards
The father falls forwatd on his face, the
act drop descends, and for a few minutes
all is hushed save the sobs of tho females.
" There," said a workingmati by our
side, as be heaved a sigh ot relief, ' Mr.
Spurgeon never preached a better sermon
than that,'' an expression to which we
assented, and then left the hall.

Tho Hartford Po&tmya the case of the
IVitish government against the Sharpe
Tviilo Company of that city, which has
been before the courts for twelve years,
has at last been decided by the supreme
court in favor of the British government.
In 18oG, the British government mado
a contract for arms for the Crimean cam
paign with tho Sharpe company. To
secure tho fulfillment of this contract, the
British government took a moitgage of
certain lands near Sharpe factory. The
government claims a non fulfillment of
the contract, and asks for a foreclos
ure of tho mortgage, in order to sell the
lands ; and that is what they have at
last got. Tho whole amount in contro
versey is about 100.000, and the lawyers
concerned have bad by far the best of
tho thing.
Tho British government has kept a
colonel of the army on full pay, 10,000
a year in gold, in New York all tho time,
to manage the case, but all bo has bad to
do has been to pay the counsel for the
Crown their SoO per diem in gold, when
engaged on the case, and to sign his
nriuo occasionally, while be boarded at
tho first class hotels. The lawyers,
ni: urally enough, regret the " death of
the old fjooso."

An Tarly Convention.
With few exceptions, as we havo frequently
written, the Republican press of the State
now favor an early meeting of a convention
to nominato a candidato for Governor. Iu
conveisation with a distinguished Etato Sen
ator, a day or two since, ho reduced the pio
positiou for nn early convention to meaus of
accomodating tho delegates and members or
the Legislature in a very practical maimer.
The great majority of tho.-o who usually at
tend such conventions are men who generally
go to a Presidential inauguration aud partic
ipate in the changes of a new adminictration.
Members ot tho Legislature of the party
itleutify with the President inaugerated, also
desire to bo present (luring such ceremonies.
It is proposed to hold a Republican fb'tuto
Convention on tho 2d of March. If this is
done, tho delegates in that body can leave
Ilarriiburg (or from wherever tho Conven
tion assembles) on tho 3d end bo iu full time
ou the 4th of March, in tho city of Wash
ington. I'loni preseut appearances, wo
judgo that the Democratic State Convention
will be held on the 4th of March. If thi3
bo so, ono adjournment of tho Legislature
will servo to accomodate both parties with
time to attend their conventions. Tho Ben
ator iu question takes this practical view of
the subject, and we agree with him as to its
utility and the accommodation it will afford
all concerned. There is uo denying tho ne
cessity of holding an early convention.
Tho Gubernatorial and Supremo Judgo cam
paign will require activo exertion and suffi
cient time, us it is of vital importance to tho
voters as well as to tho Stato that tho clec
tiou in Peuusylvania for 18C9 result iu au
overwhelming Republican victory. We must
elect whoever we nominate, but their is uo
denying that the character of our uaniicecs
will greatly add to our ability to elect

late speculation, particularly in the railway
stocks, which, it is thought, will bo the first
property of the country to reel tho effect of
tho busy era on which we are entering. Tho
speculators all think nlike.
We believo that tho Pacific railroad, bo
fore the end of this century, will have paid
for itself ten times over, and that the Cov

concerns " now projected, can Bafely be left
