the eyes of Jasper, the melancholy face of the
maiden. In the thickest of the fight, surround
ed by enemies the lovers fight side by side.
Suddenly lance is levelled at the breast Of
Jasper; but swifter than the lance is Sallie St.
Clair. There is wild cry, and at the feet OF
Jasper sinks the maiden, with the lite-blood
gushing from the white bosom. which has been
thrown as a shield before his breast. He
heeds not not the din nor the danger Of the
conflict; but down by the side of the dying
boy he kneels, Then, for the first time, does
be learn that the STRIPPING is his love; that the
dim visions in his slumbers, of an angel face
lowering above him, had indeed been true. In
the midst Of the battle, with her lover by his
side and the barb still in her bosom, the hero
ine maiden expires.
Her name, her sex and her noble devotion,
soon became known through the corps. There
was fearful group gathered around her grave;
there was not one of those hardy warriors who
did not bedew her grave with tears. They
buried her near the river Santee, in green
shady nook that looked as if it had been stolen
out of Paradise"
The sweetest of all American song writers
has mmortaized this noble woman in a charm
ing lyric, with which we close our story
In the ranks of Marions band,
Through morass and woodedland,
Over beach of yellow sand
Mountain, plain and valley;
southern maid, in all her PRIDE
Marchedsgaily at her lovers side,
In such disguise
That cen his eyes
Did not discover Salliet
When returned from midnight tramp,
Through the forest dark and damp,
On his straw couch in the camp,
In his dreams he'd call
With that devoted, gentle fair
Whose large black eyes and flowing hair,
So near him seem,
That in his dream,
He breathes his love for Salie.
Oh, what joy that maiden knew
When she found her lover true
suddenly the.trumpet blew,
Marions men to rally?
To ward the death-spear from his side
In battle by Santee she. died
Where sings the surge
ceaseess dirge
Near the lone grave of Sallie!
