THE BOYS IN BLUE TO THE BOYS
TN GRAY.

BY "pRIvATE MILES o'REILIY," U. S. a.
Men who have, in many battle,
Made the hail round either rattle,
Keeling over men and cattle, ...
Souls and bullets on the wing;
Must this war, its woes expanding,
Still be pushed, fresh lives demanding,
We like cladiators standing
Elbow bloodied in the ring!
Grape-shot rustling, Lullets singing,
Round shot humming, orders tinging,
And our torn, loved flags swinging,
Forward in the fiery gales;-
Buges fercely, sharply sounding,
Sheets of fame the sight confounding,
And Ger all, the heavy pounding
Of the red artillery fails
Brethren, thus we stand confronted,
Every hayonet forward slanted,
Tired and bloody, but undaunted-
Shall the work again begin!
Shall the cry again be slaughter,
Your blood, our blood, shed like water
Pitiless and useless slaughter,
In fight ye cannot win
Curse the symbols that divide US,
Folly and fraud alone divide us,
Brethren, join us-stand beside us
Both have wrongs to wipe away;
All our feuds forgotten, ended.
Let our flag, with forces blended,
Henceforth bear imperial sway!

RArTLEsNAKE BITE-The Grant county HIli-
nois) Herald relates that a man named Lyon
was bitten three times on the foot by rattle
snake while binding grain, and fell 70 the ground
He was carried to the house, drank half pint of
alcohol and camphor, then quart of whiskey,
and then a quart of pure alcohol feeling no
symptoms Of intoxication. The next morning he
felt some numbness and pain in his limb and
quarter of pound of fne-cut chewing tobacco
boiled in sweet milk. These doses, which it
would be supposed would kill anybody, had no
injurious effects, and the fourth day after the
bites he felt well enough, only little soreness
from the knee down.
THAT man was, indeed, badly snakebitten.1

1t was evident that the Presidents friends wcrc

ever political party attempt to vindicate this
last effort OF the President. On the contrary,
even respectable men in the Democratic party
do not hesitate to pronounce him,-to use his
own dignifed and classic language, when re.
ferring to Col. Forney,-a "dead cock" The
speech was after the model OF his celebrated in
auguration llarangue of last year; which his
present admirers attributed to well known
disease which prevails in this locality. His
Republican friends will not admit that Presi-
dent of the United States can besubject to such
an affection. Ii were moro charitable to ad.
here to the opinions We entertained on the for
mer occasion, and maintain that the President,
weighed down by public cares finds it necessa
~ to use "stimulants" in order to sustain was.
