ticuIars at this time, but will give a
more extended notice in our next.
His remains arrived Monday even

He was noble soldier, and died

feelings.

Now is the lime for candidates to
procure tickets. Eevery man should
have his own ticket. An Independent
ticket is a good index Of an iudepen-

candidate can expect to be elected
unless he has generosity enough to
furnish his friends with the ticket he

previous to his falling back, General

the corps commanders of his army.
With this statement in view, the

When this Cruel War is over.


Dearest love, do YOU remember
When we last did meet:
How YOU told me that you loved me,
knceling al my feet?
Oh how proud you stood before me,
In your suit OF blue,
When you vowed 10 me and country,
Ever to he true.
Weeping, sad and lonely.
Hopes and fears. how vain
Yet praying when this cruel war is over,
Praying that we meet again.
When the summer breeze is signing,
Mournfully, along
Or when autumn leaves are falling,
Sadly brcathcs the song
Oft in dreams STE thee living
On the hattie plain,
Lonely. wounded, even dying;
Calling but in vain.
Weeping, sad and lonely &c.
If amid the din Of battle,
Nobly you should fall,
Far awa.' from those who love YOU,
Noac to hear YOU cali
Who would whisper words of comfort,
Who would sooth YOUR pain?
All the many cruel MncieS
Ever in my brain.
Weeping: sad and lonely, &c.
But our country called YOU, darling,
Angels cheer your way.
While our nations sons are fighting,
We can only pray.
Nubly strike for God and liberty,
Let all nations see
How we love orr starry banner
Emblem vi the free.
Weeping, sad and lonely.
Hopes and fears, how vain.
Yet PRAYING when this cruel war is over,
PRAYING that we meet again.
