like dreary prison walls
The stern grey mountains rise,
Until their tOpmOst crags
Touch the far gloomy skies;
One steep and narrow path
Winds up the mountain crest,
And from our valley leads
Out to the golden West
dwell here In content,
Thankful for tranquil days;
And yet my eyes grow dim,
As still gaze and gaze
Upon that mountain pass
That leads--Or so 1t seems
To some far happy land
known In the world OF dreams.
And as watch that path
Over the distant hill,
A foolish longing comes
My heart and soul to iill,-
A painful, strange desire
To break some weary bond;
A vague, unuttered wish
For what might lie beyond
In that far world unknown,
Over that distant hill,
May dwell the loved and lost
Lost, yet beloved still;
/ have a yearning hope,
HalflOnging and half pain,
That by the mountain pass
They may return again.
Space may keep friends apart,
Death has a mighty thrall;
There is another gulf
Harder TO cross than all;
Yet, watching that far road,
My heart beats full and lust
If they should come once more
If they shonld come at lastl
See down the mountain side
The silver vapors creep;
They hide the rocky cliffs,
They hide the craggy steep;
They hide the narrow path
That comes across the Hill
Oh, foolish longing, cease
Oh, beating heart, be still

! ing and the engagement with the meneu
vering had occupied the nelghborhoOd o
two hours. Jaekson's cavalry were noun.
ted, being armed chiefly with shot gun,
and common rifles. The had no cannon OF
the bluffs or hills, and were consequently
able TO make little or no resistance TO the
attacks o, Col. Sigel. Forty-fve men and
eighty horses were taken belonging to
Jackson's troops, and there were also cap
tured sixty shot guns and some re.
volvers and bowie knives. Our inform
ant states that one Of the prisoners, on be.
ing askedhow many had been killed on his
side, estimated the loss at from $50 TO 300
Lieut.. Tosk says that it i. undeniabIe
that the officers of Jackson's troops display.
ed great ability in their ,maneuvers, show
ing much sirsgetic skill, but that the men
were raw and uudisciplined, their expert.
ence in the art of war leading them contin.
ually into danger.
notwithstanding their loss, the State
troops still held their position as for a. tc
cut of Sigsl's Advance over the creek, and
that officer was compelled TO order retreat
in the direction near Carthage, Jackson's
men following and surrounding the column
on three sides. During the retreat firing
by the infantry was kept up, and in this
way the cavalry was kept at some distance
Sigel's command got back to Carthage hall
past 6 o'clock, and at once undertook to en-.
ter the woods about mile distant. Thi.
movement was strongly and desperately re.
sisted, Jackson's men feeling that once in
timber they could do nothing, being or
horse back. An effort TO rally the cavalry
70 charge was made, which brought the
whole of the infantry into action. After
some hard fighting Col. Sigel got his ner
into the woods, and so recovered his re-
treat ss to force tbs State troops to reliR
quish the further prosecution OF the fght
for the night. The latter retured TO Car.
Image with the evident purpose of renew.
Ing the battle in the morning. Lieut.. Tosk
without any positive information on the sub
ject, thinks that in this last engagement
near Carthage, Jackson's men must have
suffered q loss Of not less than 20C
killed. He says that during the whole day
the loss on the Federal side was about s
killed and As wounded; though we UNDER
stand that the dispatch.s Of Gen. Sieel 10

number of killed at "a. The report that
