The Years.

The Years roll on, the Years roifon
And shadows now stretch DER the lawn.
Whereon the sunlight fell at morn
The morn of mortal life:
And dusky hours to me have come
Life's landscape now looks drear and dumb,
And queached the light, and ceased the hum,
With which my way was rife.
now look backward on the path
Whereon I've walked mid wrong and wrath:
l look, and see how much it hath
Ofbitterness to tell;
But life's hard lessons must be learned:
BY goading care is wisdom earned
Then upward let the eye be turned,
And all earth's scenes are we'll.
On roll the Years, the swift still Years;
And as they pass, how feeling sears
How dryeth up the fount of tears
Emotions fires grow dim
This pulse of life not long can last,
And as the Years go hurrying past,
The blooms of life are earthward cast,
And withered heart and limb
The Years, the Years sublimely roni
Unfurling like a lettered scroll
Look on! and garner in thy soul
The treasures of their lore;.
1t is Cons WRITING there we see
o read with,deep intensity;
Its truth shall with thy spirit be
When years shall roll no more [B.

There's voice within the night-wind
And it whispers in my ear,
Like the breathing of spirit
From another-brighter sphere,
Telling me in broken numbers
Of Il dear one far away,
Moaning in her dreamless slumbers
For the dawn of health's bright day.
And the love-lit years long buried
In the past for aye.
Soft as sighs the twilight zephyr
Ger the buds of Roselin Dale,
Is that voice of angel sweetness
AS it tells the mournful tale;
And it often seems to tremble
On the tinted ether sea,
Like fairy spring born blossom,
Or harp-string woke by thee;
And its tones are full of sorrow,
Sadness bringing me-
Yes, it tells me of that even
When darkling shadow spread.
Like winter wind-filled cloudlet
Der thy fair, devoted head :
And it turned thy smiles of pleasure
Into heart-wrung sobS and pain,
Tho the arms of love were round thee
And a brave heart strove in vain,
AS the flames like bright-wing'd demons
Upward flashd again.
That, a kind and gifted father
Who, for thee had freely died.,
And fond heart broken mother
Are still watching by thy side,
From the last faint blush of sunset
Through the Silly midnight hour,
Till the joyful smiles of day-dawn
Fall upon their dropping flow'r,
And awaking song-birds warble
Within thy bower.
Angel bands have heard them praying
When the hum of life was still,
Ere the pearly dewdrop nestled
On the green leaves by the rill,
AS they wav'd their golden winglets
Ger thy fair and aching brow,
And thy dreams with blissful visions
They are filling even now;
Yet gently as the south-winds kiss
A blossomy bough.
Early friends for thee are weeping
Where no eye can mark their tears,
And their guileless hearts are bleeding
For the lov'd of other years
Sought and priz'd by all who knew thee
Or have sat beneath thy smile,
Cans't thou frown if remember,
And awake my harp awhile.
That its trembling tones may cheer me,
In my long exile.
Sweet and soothing as the balm-breeze
Floating over Palestine,
When the night-queen lights the ocean
With a smile as pure as thine,
Be, the soft winds Health is waiting
Ger the futures unknown sea,
Sent to bless the fearful pleading
Of each loving one, for thee;
And beneath their touch so gentle,
Soon may sorrow flee.
Once again will pleasures brighten
And thy heart with joy expand,
As the peerless Rose of Sharon
Wakes to bloom in far land;
While the gloomy clouds that lower
Ger thee, at the present time,
Like the lays of sleeping minstrel
And my own unskilful rhyme,
In thy bliss will be forgotten
AS vesper chime.
After years will bring thee blessings
On each broad and snowy wing,
AS tree puts forth its blossoms
In the mild and merry spring;
And those dreams so full of sorrow
Floating Ger thy feverd brain,
Like the bright tears wept in childhood
Ne'er will come to thee, again;
While thy bark's by hope-winds waited
Gently DER Life's main.

Gentle reader, peruse the above list OF names
They constitute single company-the first
military detachment which the United States
Government ordered to Alta California, after
the declaration of war with Mexico. They
were commanded by C. Q. Tompkins and sailed
from Governors Island, n. y, on the 18th
August, 1916, landing at Monterey, Upper
California, on the 2lth day of January, 1917.
The enlistment was for five years so that
many of their terms of service did not expire
until the year 1851.
We had the honor to serve in this company
until the term of service specified in the enlist
ment had expired. The original number, rank
and file. was III On looking over the list of
names kindly furnished us by Capt II. 5. Bur-
ton. at this date, thousand recollections rush
unon our mind: where are they-that troop
of bold and enterprising men, who, twelve
wears ago, fred by patriotic zeal and honora-
BILE thirst for glory, inscribed their names
among their countrys defenders? Of the
whole number, not more than thirty now live !;
and even of them, some live in infamy.
Among the first to die was Brevet Lieut..
Colville ]. Minor, 9th August, lS47), of
Georgeton, D. c., who fell a victim to a malig-
nant disease, brought on heflag ship Columbus
6Commodore Biddle), from Manila. Nine of
the privates also expired of this disease
Ieut. Minor was man beloved by all-gen-
lie and kindly in camp, brave as good, and a
true soldier In the rear of the Fort, under
the darkliug shadows Of grand old pines, his
comrades in arms scooped out his narrow
ho,rse and laid him down forever, so far from
home and Kindred. The ceaseleSs murmurS
of old ocean are his sublime requiem but
the tumnlt of battle nor the rage of the billow
shall disturb his solemn repose. By his side,
one wear later, we deposited the body of young

A pleasing sadness ever mingles in the
memories of the past. We draw upon the
treasury of our own experience and others
not only for the guidance of our future lives,
but also for present consolation and relief
IF we are miserable or unhappy it is natural
that we should console ourselves with the re-
Election that greater trials have been borne
by Others Have we been unsuccessful in the
great battle of life, we scan the lists of our
friends and associates for companions in mis-
fortune. Such are the frailties of humanity !
In youth we set out with the buoyant throng,
full of hope and confidence, looking only to
the goal of our ambition, and never pausing to
estimate the cost of the prize or the obstacles
to be surmounted. Fortune, knowledge and
the aspirations of ambition, are all to be
achieved by the legerdemain of those reserved
powers which we know we possess but which
alas we have never yet tried. Like "Obi-
aah, the son of Abensini," the fowery en-
chantments of pleasure too soon allure us from
the winning path marked out by virtue and
experience; so that, when the hour of morn
ing has passed. and the sun of life begins to
throw his shadows backward on the DIAL the
clouds to obscure his disc, the liphtnings to
flash and the gloom of night to envelope the
sky, we turn again, with fearful eye and re-
morseful remembrance toward the starting
point. With but little modification, the his
tory of one, is the history of all. With these
few sage conclusions and Introductory remarks,
we propose to give history of our old Com
pany, referred to in a previous paper The
following is the muster roll;

TRITON, to the advertisement Of Dr. Halsted,
Principal Of the Water Cure Establishment at

his advertisement, and it gives us pleasure to say
that we have had the must satisfactory testmo.
malls, both as to his skill and the success Of his
peculiar mode Of treatment. When the priceless
value Of sound and robust health is considered.
in comparison with state Of enervating and
wasting disease, how great is the inducement for
those who ATE in the latter condition, to see IL
there may notbe some ready and available meth
cd Of being restored to the former. To the at
tention Of all such, we would commend the ad
yertsement Of DR.. Halsted, with the advice that
they take means to satisfy themselves as to the
efficacy and value Of his treatment.

All that live must be subsisted. Subsistence

duces, by his industry, something that is an

therefore, no charge or burden to society. The

can be no doubt but all kinds of employment
that can be followed without prejudice from in.
terruptions work that can be taken up and laid
down often in day, without damage (such as
spinning, knitting, weaving, &c) ARE highly
advantageous to a community: because in them
