 We were 10th that he should depart. There thou sand ties that bound him We could not conceive that flower fair and full of promise should wher and die while within our grasp. But
 "We shall all go home to Fathers house
 To our Fathers house in the skies,
 Where the hope of soul shall have blight,
 Our love no broken ties.
 We shall roam on the banks of the river of peace,
 And bathe in it's blissul tide;
 And one of the joys of our heaven shall be-
 The little boy that died" A FRIEND. Brownsville Ark, May 1st 1863.
