The American Soldier The attack up

t least, as consumma!e military skill as
vas ever displayed in any of the great sc-
ions upon the CoEtinent of Europe, and
places in favorable light the American sol
disr when compared with the veteran troops
of any other country. The h0is j0,rS Of

the American will be pre-eminent IN war
As he is foremost in the arts. manufactures,

OF peace. 10 this severe and sangunary
struggle against superior numbers who had

WOMAN.
BIT HENRY DGFFRNpERFrER.

There is a beauty in the glstening morn
That wakes the heart to a most holy love;
There is grandeur in the bowling storm
That lifts the spirit TO a source above.
There is spendor in the glorious noon
That fills the bosom witha mighty power;
And graceful beauty III the silvery moon,
That shapes our fanCies in the quiet hour.
There is a sweetness in The twilight tide
That wakes the senses TO poets mood;
And secret whispering where the brGezes glide
And wind along the melancholy wood.
Soft music murmu rs from the rippling stream
That strs the bOsom's deep and silent cell,
And radiance glitters in the starry beam,
That IN our visions makes emotions swell.
But there's no beauty like to woman's face,
Which wins the heat willing captive, hers
There is no sailing moon like woman's grace,
Which SO bewiders, and our feeling strs
There are no twilight ewes like woman g brow,
Gliding the visions of poets dreams;
No music where the Fastening breeZes blow
Like woman's voice, that so angelic seems.
There is no star SO bright as woman's eve,
Which wins the spirit from a world like this;
Fer voice, whose tones no ripping stream can we
To charm the heart, or wrap the sou! in bliss.
