New Mrsic.— We have just received
from F. W. Helmiek, music dealer and
publisher, '278 West Sixth street, Cin
cinnati, Ohio, two splendid pieces ol
music. The first is a beautiful ballad
and chorus, entitled "Heaven Bless
Mamma," words by E. Salomon, music
by P. Arnold de Thier. It is sung by
some of the best ai lists in the cast,
and is no doubt one of the best ever
published. The first stanza reads as
follows:
O mamma! tell me when I die
Will angels lake me to the sky?
For Mary says so, is it true?
Will God make me an angel too?
Have angels wings, O mamma dear?
And do they always hover near;
And when iny eyes are closed in sleep
Do they their silent vigils, too, keep?
With this chorus:
f f Jit'll i »I» » ■■**•** — * - ~ *
God bless you mamma and bless me too.
Price only forty cents.
The second is a new piece entitled,
"Only in Fun," a ladies sem-comic
song with waltz chorus; words by Ar
thur W. French, music by R. S. Cran
dall. This song is gotten up with a
gold and blue title and a handsome
cabinet size photograph of'Miss Ada
Richmond. It is all the rago in the
eastern cities. Price, fifty cents,
mailed free to any address in the Uni
ted States, upon receipt of price by
the publisher. Send aMd**get these*
aongs^they are worth tbe money.
The
"T. T's" are gaining great
strength in this community, and in
fact throughout the whole country.
They will soon become a power in the
land. The Grangers and all other so
cieties will haul down their colors in
less than three months. The origin of
this Order dates way hack into the an
tiquities—so deep in the dimmest vista
ot the past that a message sent by
double-geared lightning from the pres
ent could never reach the time when
it was'nt in all the endless ages of eter
nity. It was hoary with age in Solo
mon's day ; and when that wise man was
doing up Masonry in his great temple,
he was also running a "T. T." Lodge in
the top story of that edifice This
fact shows that the Order of the An
cient "T. T's" is a higher one than
that of Masonry. Masonry loses it
self at the temple. The "T. T.'s" al
ways existed. Their mysteries were

that have elapsed since time began.
A microscope revealed, neatly done
in sunken letters, in one corner, the
name of "King Solomon;" in the opposite
corner, in the same style, were these
letters: "P.R Ush—Sam'ISt Ewart—

was the translation of the profound
professors, who made oath that it was
correct. The block of gold was re
turned to the lodge at this place, and
has been kept ever since in an iron
box, in the Blue Chamber, strictly
guarded by four stalwart Brothers,
who stand at each corner day and
