BY LOUISE E. vICKRoY.

Wide Awake the artist called it,
IT'S very pretty picture,
OF a little girl just wakened,
And Just risen from her bed
With hundred curls a-tumble,
And her dimpled hands among them,
Drawing out their silken softness
Through her fingers, shred by shred.
Shine, her eyes like stars of morning,
In their gentleness upon me;
And her lips, in rosebud freshness,
Part with just the softest smile;
And her full round cheeks are telling
OF childhood, health, and gladness,
And the dawn of early womanhood
Is flushing them the while.
This, you tell me, darling Laura,
Was present, and the giyer
Said the face of little Wide Awake
Reminded him Of you,
With her cheeks so round and rosy,
Her hundred curls a tumble,
Her smile of angel sweetness,
And her eyes of tender blue.
Now, it hangs here in our chamber,
And, at morn when l awaken,
That face is, next to yours, love,
The sweetest thing l see;
And tbs sweet to think, my sister,
From your wanderings in dream land
You can come back in your happiness
As radiant as she,
'Ah! It's easy to awaken
From those dreamings of our slumber,
That leave us as we toss our curls,
And open wide our eyes;
Bot, God pity those who waken
From the dreams their hearts have woven
When Hopes sun was shining on them,
Like the dawn of Paradise
Then the cheeks may lose their fulness,
And the eyes their starry lustre;
From the hands the dimples yanish
And shadow gloom the lips =
Never come such bitter waking
Unto Laura S Eden-dreaming
Be her Wide Awake of gladness
Darliened by nc grief-eclipse

OF the fallen Many Of us may live to
tell the story of the fight tomorrow and
in the memory of all will ever rest and
linger the quiet scene Of this autumnal
night.
Solemn twilight advances over the val
ley-thc woods on the opposite heights
fling their long shadows over the green
of the neadow-around US are the tents
of the Continental host the suppressed
bustle-of the camp, the hurried tramp
Of the soldiers to and fro among the tents,
the stiffness and silence that mark the era
Of battle.
When we meet again, the long shadows
of twilight will be flung over peaceful
land
God in Heaven grant it
Let US pray.
PRAYER OF THE REVOLUTION.
Great Father we bow before thee. We
invoke thy blessing, we deprecate thy
wrath we return thee thanks for the past,
We ask thy aid for the future For we
are In time Of trouble, oh, Lord and sore
beset by foes, merciless and untyping the
sword CLEANS over our land, and the dust
Of the soil Is dampened with the blood of
OuI HcI9HDOTS anu 1TIcHuS- On UOu OF
mercy, we pray thy blessing on the Amer
lean arms. Make the men of our hearts
strong in thy wisdom bless we besecca
with renewed life and strength, our hope,
George Washington. Shower thy coun-
sells on the honorable, the Continental
Congress visit the tents of our hosts
comfort the soldier for his wounds and
Affections nerve him for the fight prepare
him for the hour of death. And in the
hour of defeat, oh God of hosts, do Thou
be cur guide.
Teach us to be merciful Though the
memory of CALLING wrongs be at our hearts
knocking for admittance, that they may
fill us with desires of revenge, yet, let US,
Oh Lord, spare the vanquishcd, though
they never spared us, in the hour of butch
cry and bloodshed. And in the hour of
death do Thou guide us into the abode
prepared for the blest; so shall we return
thanks unto Thee, through Christ our
Redeemer. God prosper our cause
Amen.

SOLDIERS, Look TO YOUR GuNs-The
18th Regiment during the interval from
the time they were accepted to service,
until their departure, were admirably and
indefatigably drilled. One of the sentinels
on duty, noticed one of his officers ap-
proach
"Who goes there ?"
ga friend"
''Advance, friend, and give the counter
sign"
The word was given; but the officer
said, as that the way you hold your gun?
Give it TO me and let me show you how it
should be held"
The recruit innocently handed over the
''instrument, when a corporal was called
and the soldier consigned to the Guard
House. The lesson intended to be con
veyed, and which viii possibly not be for
gotten, is never, under any circumstances,
to part with your gun while on guard.

Beautiful Women.

Every woman has a right to be bcauti-
ful that is the secret of her power, her
mission, the key that unlocks her destiny.
But while she has right to be beautiful,
she has no right to be its opposite-that
Is. an injustice to society, which has a
right to exact from her its loveliness, its
grace, and its attraction. There are many
different kinds of beauty, and it is great
mistake to imagine that it consists wholly,
or even mainly, Of color, form or texture.
There is the beauty of innocence and the
beauty of childhood and the beauty of
matron, the beauty of wisdom and the
beauty of simplicity. The lowest kind of
beauty is of merely physical perfection
and splendor, which receives no aid from
voice, look, CT expression, but is marred
by the action Of the mind upon its fair
and smooth surface just as the mud is
stirred IN a shallow pool by any slight
circumstance that touches its depths.
The ideals of the ancient poets are all
beautiful, but their characteristics are dis
tinct and separate, SO that there is no fat
and wearisome sameness; and the beauty
of form with which they are endowed is
simply the vehicle or expression of the
IuCd tiSJ WISH " COuhe1. Il nus,
the serene matron, the brilliant coquette,
the imperious queen, the delicate maiden,
the timid young wife, and the thoughtful
nurse, have all an individuality of their
own, to which their outward appearance is
the visible sign or index Their dress
should naturally correspond to those mental
and physical indications, so as to preserve
a sense of musical harmony and fitness
throughout the entire structure.
There is nothing that disenchants so
soon as the discovery of folly, ignorance,
stupidity, bad temper or vile passions be-
meath a fair and seductive form. The
possession of any fine and noble qualities,
on the contrary, illuminates the plainest
features and dullest complexion much
better than scores Of costly powders and
cosmetics. Women who desire to be beau
tiful make great mistake in trying to
increase their attractions, or to make
themselves charming, after any other per-
sons pattern. What is adapted to one
style would destroy the effect of another;
and for every woman to adopt an arbitrary
mode or standard Of dress is fatal to the
aggregate of feminine beauty, whose great
charm is variety.
IL IL ldIuEdl W love power
and influence, and almost all women may
not only obtain these, but retain them,
by being themselves in the very highest
and most perfect sense of which they are
capable; instead of weak, diluted imita-
ton of somebody else. When freshness
of youth and girlhood has departed, let
them be succeeded, naturally, by the ma
tured grace of womanhood, and these by
the dignity of middle age. The affecta-
ton of pretty coquetries and Juvenile sim
plicity by shallow specimens of ancient
spinister- -hood-or, worse. by women who
bear the name of wife and motherhood
not only outrage all true ideas of taste and
propriety, but deprive those who indulge
in them of their natural claims of atten-
ton and consideration. When all women
are natural and true, then they will all be
beautiful

old time on Saturday afternoon. Their
friends we're here in force, abundantly
supplied with food and flowers, both abun-

splendid in appearance, and if we may
judge from their hearty cheering, in their
own peculiar style, and the look of heir
tents beautifully decorated with the AoW-

bic. Itwas well appreciated. Saturday
evening was one of the times in camp
