Dixie.
Some one writing to the New Orleans Delta
repeats the story which was started about the
time this tune became popular, of its having
originated on Long Island. It won’t do.—
Everybody who has livsd among Southern ne
groes has long heard the air in their corn
songs and boat songs. As long ago as Nat.
Willis made a tour South, his ear esught its
rich melody poured forth from the lips of a
sturdy gang ef boat hands, to the words of
Oh, don't you se# tbs Emperor coming,
Oh, bo I oh, hoi
The slight differenos of metre needs no ex
planation io # thoss familiar with the manner
in which negroes manage their melodies. Now
(his same tune, famfiar to the negro boat
hands from New Orleans to Pittsburg, has
been adopted as a vebiols for their expression
of preference for the South oter the North,
and they take no little pleasure in saasing
Ohio Diggers, and white men too, with invidu-
ous comparisons between the two. Pet names
have always existed and always will, and we
might naturally suppose that as the Virgin
ians speak of "Old Shortgrass,” and the
North Carolinians of “ Old Rip,” the South
ern negroes would pick op or adapt soma name
for tne region which they love, the Mecca to
wbioh their longing eyes turn when misfor
tune or error haa driven them to the shiver
ing, hard hearted North. We have it or sat
isfactory authority—that of msn who hat#
spent years in boating—that this oountry has
long been called by them in this faahien
*• Dixie” or “ Dixie Land,” as the short for
"Mason and Dixon's land.” What Mason
and Dixon's Lins may be they don’t know,
but they have always beard it associated with
mention of the South; therefore, &c.
Now, this ws steadfastly believe is tbe or!
gin of 11 Dixie.”
We cannot drop tbe subjeot without notio
ing the way it took as soon as it was heard in
its present form throughout the SoQth. lt
bad come home, to live. The melody had
been wandering about in the Northern land,
saw bow things wars tending, and that that
waa not its plaoo, so tnrasd Southward, and
aa it passed on tho breexe, whispered in every
Southern ear, and to every Southron that in
less than a year ws should have ourselves to
ourselves, our own songs, our own* flag, oar
own name ; everything our own, and in which
no Samaritan should henceforth claim part or
parcel, name or kindred. It was tbs harbin
ger of the good time ooming—Moiilt Adverlt-
