Thanks for the hint, Matt. I went back and found it in Ryan's Mammoth Collection - I'd missed it before.
For those that don't know this collection, it was published 'about 1883' in Boston, Mass. The Golden Eagle certainly doesn't sound like it was written too long before that, with all the chromatic bits. But lots of tunes like that were written on both sides of the Atlantic in the mid 19th C.
