AN OLD FRIEND WITH A NEW FACE,

It is calculated that 50.000 corpses are now festering on
the plains of Lombardy.— Vide Times.

SCEXE.—LO:433ARDY.
TIME.—SUMMER OF .Ifl6l.
Mr. EDWARD KELLY takes one of the Boys over the Field.

It was a summer evening,
Old Caspar's work was done,
And he before his cottage door,
Was sitting in the sun ;
And by him sported on the green,
His little grandohild Wilhelmine.
She saw the little Butterman
Roll something large and round,
That he beside the rivulet
In playing there had found ;
She came to ask what he had found,
That was so large, and smooth and round

Old Caspar took it from the boy,
Who stood'expe dant by;
And then the old man shook his head,
And with a natural sigh—
"'Tis some poor fellow's skull," said he,
" Who fell in the great victory."

"I find them in the garden, for
There's many here about; •
And often, when I go to plough,
The ploughsha re turns them out
For many a thousand men," said 11.1
" Were slain in the great victory."

" Now tell us *hat 'twas all about,"
The Butterman he cries,

'With wonder waiting eyes ;
" Now tell us all about the war,
And what they killed each other for?"

" It was the French," old Caspar said,
"That put the Austrians to rout,
But what they killed each other for,
I could not well make out ;

But everybody said," quoth
" That 'twas a faniouS victory !"

My father dwelt—'side Alincio then,
Yon little stream hard by ;

And he was forced to fly ;
So with his wife and child he fled,
Nor had he where to rest his head

Was wasted far and wide

And new-born infant died;
But things like that, you know, must be
At every famous victory.

" They say it was a shocking si
After the place was won;
For fifty thousand bodies hre,
Lay rotting in the,sun;

But things like tnat,
After a famous victor

"Great praise the third Napoleon.wori,
They styled him -Veteran ;.

Why 'twas a very wicked thing 1"
Said the little Butterman.
:!"Nay, nay, my little man," quoth he,
