NEW MUSIC .

The Oru-oacfar . Words by Samuel K . Cowan , M . A . ; Music by Theo Bonhenr . London : J . and J . Hopkinson , 95 New Bond Street , W . Tins song is one that depicts the adventures of a soldier on a crusade . The story is told in good stvlo . Of Mr . Theo Bonhenr ^' a music wo cannot speak too highly . Indeed , wo may say of " The Crusader" that it is one of the best songs we have heard this season .

English Hearts and TVnylanrVa Queen . A national song , written and composed by G . Hunt Jackson . Wedded . Words by tho same author ; music by Mai-oollns Higgs . London : Metzler and Co ,, 42 Great Marlborough Street , W . Tut " , former of these songs , as the title implies , is one written in

celebration of Her Majesty ' s jnbileo year . The author has appropriately set his wirds to bright , if not altogether original music . Ilowavoi " , the song is equal to tho average of its kind , and we anticipate it , will ho frequently hoard during the soison . The

neeond song baa haon suggested by Sir F . Leighton ' s picture , and the words are vo ; y nppnmrhto . Mr . G . Hunt Jackson , the author , hrw , done his work well , but in this instance has called iu the aid of Mr . Marcellns Higgs , who has composed some music that is both pretty and easy to sing .

On the rolling wave . Words and music by Godfrey Marks . Ncfrr Despair . Words by Willii . m Boosay ; music by J . L . Molloy . Loudon : Bo-ascy and Co ., 205 Regent Street , W . " Ox tho rolling wave , " as its titlo imports , ii a lay of the sea , and

1 . f' • - , * I t * . . ¦ rr .. n -. * l-as r . fine awicgiug air which is very effective . Those fond of rollicking tuc'v : ah add n t fail to add it to their reportoire . " Never Despair" is a fine mariial song . It toils us in brilliant style how a

young soldier lad l-.-d a forlorn hope , and took by storm tho heart of a fair lady . The rnasb ; has been supplied by that woll known composer J . L . Molloy , and is iu his best style . It is published in three keys , and is well within tho compass of most vocalists .
