The HeheI Evacuation Of Calves
Ton a. nfirnl cd---'E'he Reason,
The Houston Telegraph, Of the 2d inst,

and that movable property, public and

On the 20,h ult, council Of war was
held, at Galveston, at which it WAS deter.
mined thai it was impossible to defend the
city su c-ssfully. The largest guns al
the Notifications upon the Island were 80
pound rs, smooth bores. having a range
not excet ding two miles, while the enc
my's guns were Of the largest calibsr,
shooting with accuracy three or four
miles. To await an tack was simply to
invite the surrender or destruction of our
troops aud the city, without the power OF
inacjiag injury upon the assailants. 1t
was thought best, therefore, under all the
circums,anc 8, 10 evacuale Galveston, and
occupy posiuon in the rear oil the ci y,
SO as to repel any advance ol the Federal
troops after they had landed.
In consyqu nee Of this determination,
an order was issued for The removal OF
all the hospi al patients from Galveston

medIalely. Al the public and private

our Life.
shave.

Come fond memories dancing lightly,
Ger the graveyard Of the heart,
In the distance burning brightly.
Lights that from the tombslones start,
Come the pleasures Of the past,
Shedding sunbeams Ger the heart:
Lights too bright and pure to last
Deepening shades that never part.
But the present comes again,
Bringing woes for us to meet
Bringing sadness in its train,
Scattering thorrs for weary feet.
Pointing still With trembling fngers
10 The darkness and the gloom,
Scarce hurried moment fingers.
But keeps pointing 10 the tomb.
Life is real, rough and earnest,
And the tide fast flowing in
Dust We are to dust returnsst,
When has fed the soul within.
Then how vain our deep regret,
Ger our life all dark with i'll, ~
We should labor AID forget,
Live mission 10 fulfill.
We should work and never weary
Till our day OF life is done,
Work though day and night are drear
Till has set our earthly sun.
Till we hear the low death knell,
Telling Us our race is run;
Softly speaking Lilies farewell,
And oil Heaven just begun.
