THE TWO ARMIES.
BY DIR. HOLMES.

As Lies unendiug column pours,
Two marshapd hosts are seen
Two armies on the trampled sholes
That Death flows back between.
One marches to the drum-beat roll,
The wide-mouthed clarion's bray,
And bears upon Q crimson scroll,
sour glory is to slay."
One moves in silence by the stream,
With sad. yet watchtul eyes,
Calm as the patient planets 81, am
That walks the clouded skies.
Along its front no sabres shine,
No blood.red pennons wave;
It's banner bears the single line,
"Our duty is to save"
For those no death-bed's lingering shade,
At honor's trumpet-call
With knitted brow and lifted blade
In glory's arms they fall.
For these no clsshing falchions bright,
No stirring bsttle-cry;
The bloodless stsbber calls by night
Eacn answers. "Here am II"
For those TIE sculptor's laurel'd bust
The builders marble piles,
The anthems pealng Ger their dust
Through long cathedral aisles.
Fer these the blossom.sprinkled turf
That floods the lonely graves.
When Spring rolls in her sea-green sur1
In fowery-foaming waves.
Two paths lea1 upward from below,
And angels wait above,
Who count each burning life-drop's How,
Each falling tear OF Love.
Though from the hero's bleeding breast
Her pulses Freedom drew,
Though the white lilies in her crest.
Sprsng from that scaclet dew
While valor's naughty champions wait
TIL all their scars are shown,
Love walks unchallenged through the cato,
To sit beside the Thronel
