days, those sons of thunder did duty
upon parched aco,ns. When the horses
and mules-an anatomical collection
had their noses thrust in the morning
feed of corn, they were only sure OF
what they had in actual punishment
under the grinders, for soldiers would
filch it away, kernel-nay, pick up the
stray grains on of the dirt, to help on
the hungry day. And this sharing of
rations with the "beasts that perish"
was checked at last, for they locked up
the corn with bayonet! A sentry
paced before the noses of the brutes,
and mules and horses champed on un-
robbed. Cruel as this looks at first
thought, it was done in mercy to the.
army, and with an eye single to Federal
salvation, for an army without beasts Of
burden and draught is as feebleasa host
without banners. Many a soldier has

Did you ever 60 out with flag OF
truceP If not, let me give you touch
of new experience. A group of rebel
horsemen approach our pickets on the
Rossville road, with a white flag.
They are halted, wheeled about, their
backs to the Federal lines, their rank
demanded, and messenger dispatched
to hea quarters, announcing the arri-
val, and asking if the flag will be re-
ceived. If disposed to grant an inter
view, Federal officer, of equal rank
with the bearer of the message, is sent
out, and if fortunate, you accompany
him. Lieutenant Colonel Fullerton,
Granger's Chief of Staff, is the flag
officer, and you cannot well get in bet
ter company. As you ride up, it sur.
prises you little to see each salute
4 the flag surprises you more to see tina,
they shake hands and smile like old
friends; surprises you most when q

The swallows build beneath the caves,
As in the days agone; a i. s.
The wheaton fields are all ablase.
And in and out the west wind plays
Amid the tassled corn. 4 To- 81 3
The sunshine falls as warm and bright,
The clover fields are red,
The wild bird wakes bis simple song
As joyful the whole day long
As if he were not dead! fH
The thoughtful skies, with mother care,
Their rain and sunshine send;
And, standing in the farm house door,
see-dotting the landscape Ger
The locks he used to tend.
The wild-rose and the jassamine blow
Beside the window-sill:
Their tender moan is in the air.
p For the dear hands that placed them there
Are lying crossed and still.
The cattle languish for his care,
= The harvests lack in worth;
But oh the most, because most dear,
We miss the words of pleasant cheer
Beside our lonely hearth.
About the hills the summer folds
Her wealth of golden light;
And, past the willows silvery CLEAN;
1 catch the glimmer of the stream,
And lilies cool and white.
But oh shadow darkens all
The sunshine and the bloom;
&c The voice whose kind and loying words
Were sweeter than the songs Of birds
.t Is silent in the tomb. -r. r.-...
How can the summer fall so gay
About the farmhouse door?
When all the quiet ways he trod-
Through leafy wood or bloomy sod
Shall know him nevermore!
