TIE COUNTERSiGS.

Alas the weary hours.pass slow,
Ihe night Is very dark and still,
And in the marshes far below
hear the bearded whip poor-will;
l scarce can see a yard ahead,
My ears are strained 10 catch each soond
hear the leaves about me shed,
Aud he springs bubbllng thro' the ground
Along the beaten path pace,
Where white rags* mark my sentry's track:
In iormless shrubs | seem to trace
The ioeman's form with bending back;
lhlnk See HIN crouching low
| stop ard list--l stoop aud peer,
Untl the neish0orin9 hillocks grow
TO groups OF soldiers far aud near.
With ready piece wal, and watch,
uDul my eyes familiar grow,
Detect each harmless earihen notch,
And turn guerillas into stone:
And then amid the lonely gloom,
Beneath the tall old chestnut trees,
My silent marches | resume,
And think OF other times than these.
"Hal, Who goes there p' Nv challenge cry,
1t rings along the waichtul line;
'Reliel Il hear d voice reply
Advance, aud give the conntersign."
With oayonet al the charge wait
Tie corporal gives the mystic word
Win arms apor charge my mate
Then onward pass, and ali is well.
But in the tent that night. awake,
ask, II in he Tray tall,
Can the mystic answer make
When the angelic sen,ries call
And pray that Heaven may so ordain,
Where er | go: what late be Iuine,
Whether in pleasure or in pain,
still may have the Couulersigu.
