Excerpt from The Song-Crowned King: A Collection of New and Beautiful Music, Original and Selected, for the Use of the Singing School, Home Circle, and Revivals In the singing-school Department will be found, for the most part, only such pieces as are suitable for class practice. Pure, chaste in their sentiment, but with nothing devotional. They are of an attractive character, interesting for practice, and we think unexceptionable. The happy-home Department contains only such gems of song as are appropriate for the home circle. This is the first book ever published which contains this feature. The want of just such a department in our music books has been felt by every family in the land, in which there is a. Love of song.
