DVEMBER 9 1870. 4liemossemesollim, Histofy and Characteristics Scottish Song. About 24 years after the birth of Burns, Robert Tannahill was risher- ed into being.; whose life was but a span. He appears to have roagessed -Mae t 'which is ofttimes the curse of genius, an over sensitive nature; and which doubtles embittered his existence, amidst the btruggles of • life of honest poverty, arid the de- velopment and workbags of coosci- ous but unrewarded talents, engen- dered also, that Moody melancholy which led. him to hasten his exit from the !iworld—his entrance into eternity, lend die 8 suicide. The songs of Tannahill are remarkable for their genuine simplicity and nat- uralness. There at 5 110 conceits n_oe affectationto about them, and tlieY convey, in touching and simple beauty of language a faithfal por- traiture of many of thossgeelings which are characteristic of Scottish humanity in humble life. Sir Wal- ter Scott and John Hogg, the Et- trick Shepherd, next demand atten- tion. Scott "Whose:harp in former de' ye of Caleclon was neves mute auieltaefestel crowd, who" lap of haplc88 love, or glory won, Might rouse tae fearful ()a subdue the proud, At each according pause was heard aloud, Ilia ardent symphony, sublime, and high Fair denies and crested chiefs attention I bowed, For still. the burden of hi a minstrelsy Was knighthood's dauntless deed, And beauty's matchless eye." They were born, the one in 1771, and the other in 1772 --but they belqng no more to the present than the Past century. Scott, the loftier genius—the master -spirit of the two —did good service in bringing to light and fame much that was oh - settee, regarding the border nii4trel- sy of our land and Hogg, inIbued himself with that singularly roman- tic and loyal attachment of many of he people of Scotland, to the unfor-- -nate house of Stewart, and to Prince Charlee Edward as its represents, tive, which brought on the disasters ,of 1715 and 1845. Hogg, under this political infinence, gathered to- gether the snatches of song that were' wont to be sung by those who were eni•olled under the banner of the Preitender, and presented them to the world in the form ofea col- lectidn of Jacobite relics --adding theretd many choice songs of his own, of similar political sentiment. Thus, then, with the effusions of many glorious old bards whose -irtnies are irlOW buried among the wreck of things that were—with their effu- sions 'held in remembrance by our people, and with the names of the Ettlick Shepherd, Ramsay, Fergu- son, Burns. Scott, Cunningham; Tannahill,Smith, and others'wreath- ed around the brow of the Scottish Muse—with these may Scotland as- sert her pre-eminence, and assume the title of the "fend of Song,' for in song, above - all other lands, she "bears.the gree and a' that." And if it be ao, why should Scotchinen in those days of fashion worship— " Make so, great a phrase, Wit dringing dull Italian lays ; wudna' gie our am Strathspeys For half a hundred score o' them." . And how'it may be asked, could it be otherwise kir the natural as- pects of the counhry, the charecter of the people, and the grand politi- cal and religious antecedents of Scot; land present material rich 'beyond raeasure'llor ballad and for song. If the varied aspects of Scottish scenery are referred to, their influenbe on Scottish song may easily be con- ceived. . Truly those sublime heic;hts scathed with many a tempect, land those fairy knolls, bright with fresh- • est verdure—those bleak and deso- late moorlands, undisturbed in their dreatinese save by the bowling mu- sic of the wild winds, and those ver- dant dales, waving . with yellow grain, adorned with trees, and sin uhs, and flowers, and vocal with the cheer- ful sounds and voices of rustic labOr or of pastoral life--ethose noble rivers, gathering Might in their on- ward sweep, and bearing the majes- ty- of oceans, ere they roll their wat- ers into the great deep; and those silvery streatalets rushing gently v from the hills, wimpling through the forest glade, or sportively leaping in tiny waterfalls adown the- rocky ct glen—those dark ,forests, "whose melancholy gloom" at " the 'witch- ing time of night to' impresses thc sjiiri-with a solemn awe, and sug- gest the near presence (trf unearthly forms—and those sweet nooks and cosy dells, the fabled scenes of witeh- erye the haunts and homes of all sprites of fairy lineage—those rude 13oreaseblasts that inspire fear and dread in their wintry wrath, and. Yet agaiii, inspire love and liberty by the free wild course ; and, those gentle eephyrs from the balmy south, that taeathe of blessedness and peace ; aed join with these, those song -birds' of Scotla4d, that dis- coutse sweet music, in- richly -varied melody, from -bush and brake, from hedgerow aid from branching tree 3 There is the blackabird, whose mel- low nates awake rich echoes from, the silent woods—there is the grey' lintae, -the most homely of home g 'iiids, Cheers troubl the and rtro his net in ful hymn all, the forth h " lift " with t fiernani sorass S pf3ctS 0 grand t weet thcl art afirl SO d s xi to rf pose s," awake al, ea rtb in tones, and ° rkgair_ y his' vesper putting than rock," sending from the blue tre air rings a d the whole wi hthe glad- esj varied ss - in their magnificent the Scottish ry-----give to P!o Pow - warbled song thes the there is dy dawn, ULLV ring f in son r • voiced mei° but, n ore . e is sh " la s clari n son above is, till e 'Derr noise, nt jS vosal uncle.
