GOD BLESS OUR VOLUNTEERS
BY W. C. BRADLEY.


God bless the gallant volunteers
Who rush at duty's call
To breast rebellion's fear FIJI storm,
To conquer or TO fall.
God bless our noble volunteers
(Our comfort and our pain;)
May those who filled this cup OF war
Now have It's dregs to drain.
God bless our gallant volunteers!
Though all unsklled in war,
From sea-shore and from mountain-top,
And from the plains afar, ~t@
They come with stern and rugged front,
AS did heir sres of yore
To fight beneath our glorious flag,
The flag their fathers bore.
God bl ess our gallant volunteers,
And make their names sublime,
As victors in sacred fight,
Through all recorded time.
Our husbands, brothers, sons there,
We may not meet again.
But they'll be glorious martyrs who
In such fight are slain!
God bless our gallant volunteers.
They're gone, and we remain;
Our hearts are on the battlefield,
Our eyes are dim with pain!
But they'll come back with laurels crowned,
Wen meet them all again,
When they who filed this cup OF war
Have had its dregs to drain

Our Soldiers Must be Taught to
Take Care Oh Themselves.

j. The soldier should be selfreliant, able
to cook, wash, mend and provide for him
self
2. He should be taught to endure thirst,
or rather not be thirsty in the middle of the
day on the march. The way to do this, is
not to drink any fluids, whether in camp or
on duty, from one meal to another, and do
his main drinking at the close cf the day
1t is astonishing how quickly this abstinance
from drink in midday can be learned by
any one who will persevers. -
8. Every man should be provided with a
Mackinaw blanket, and piece of india-rub-
Der cloth Of the same size. This india rubber
cloth should be provided with button holes
on one side, and buttons on the other, at
every II inches distant The objects of
these are to button them together, when two
soldiers are out scouting The buttoning of
these together will make a good and sufficient
tent for them, in case of rain or heavy dews
A. In malarious districts, where fever
agne and dysentery abound, the soldier
should protect himselfat nlghtfall from the
radiation of heat from the earth. Keep out
Of the dews, and build camp fires after any
rain, for thorough drying of his clothing,
arms and camp.
5. In the bivouack, he should select, if
possible, shelter on the lee side of hill
hammock, log of wood, fence, trees, and, if
nothing better offers, he should he taught
to throw up miniature rampant Of sods, to
protect him from the winds.
6. The soldier should be instructed in the
art of cooking-even the poorest rations can
be made palatable lby ingenious cooking
His -four should be made into bread, not
cakes from the griddle, short cake, or any
thing Of the kind, but well baked bread. His
meat, usually salt, should be well soaked in
fresh water before boiling or roasting, his
coffee not made strong but his tea, after a
march or field duty, should be sufficiently
strong to cheer and animate the drocping
spirits =
- NA~~A'As'ASSS "a PSAoSu, Siotbhts,
age and camp, are as indispensable as a
bright musket and dry powder. -
8. He should guard against sun stroke by
putting into hat or cap his handkerchief, or,
what is better, green leaves, or grass, even
rags win do better than nothing.
9. Upon going into battle, he should put
into his pocket all the spare kandkerchiefs
and rolls Of lint he may have, to be prepared
to stanch the flowing Of blood promptly, and
be taught the applying Of ligatures between
the wound and the heart, when arteries are
wounded, and, between the wound and the
extremities, when merely the veins arr
injured. ~
| TO- As much as possible he should lead a
quiet, orderly life, avoiding DISSIPATION, be
cheerful and prompt in duty, and maintain
good pluck to the end.
