These wero wild times on the Texan
frontier, No homo was safe from scenes of
rapino and pillagc; no man, or child secure
from violent death, or q fate even worse.
Outpf this condition of things and tho
aothargy of our government authorities in
obeying our urgent pleas for military essis--
tanco, tho Independent organization,
known os tho Border Regulators, was born.
Wc wcro stout, rcsoluto body of men,
made desperate by wrongs, and caring little
for the dangers wo encountered, 80 long as
wo wroakod vengeance on the bands of
Mexican robbers and murdcrers who in
festod our borders. So every one of the
fifty forming our secret company knew, on
receipt of this laeonio order, TINT work
was awaiting US, for wo had received
many similar ones before, and manya bravo
fellow who won't out with us, dover re.

Our Captain explained briefly, the mo.
tive tor his call. A spy had brought intel.
ligence that q strong body of terocious
bandits were coDgrogatihg on the Mexican
. bank Of tho Rio Grande, at d poibt dbouta an
hours march distant, preparatory to raid
on our people. st.
It was enough for us to learn that they

The Little Eect That Never stra,
JOHN N. GEORGE.

I know not what you would think of my
home,
\ My home, with it's froIiosomo boys,
Uerfowing with mischief and laughter
r''' and fun,
And providing tho room with their toys!
The moment tho sun peeps over the hills,
/ am awakened by small, restless feet; Il
And although | am weary, and long for
moro rest, .4s.y.Esg
Their pratter is music most sweet.
For I think Of the day when thoy carried
One little prattlcr, who dropped off to
And they laid him to rqst where joy is
And where silence is&long' and is deep!
SO love to list to tho hup. ecfSst'So &c y ton

Tor the swootest roso in the garden of
bloom t y,
Has surely thorn for its mate; ,,.4
And the brambles of boyhood will bloom
rs the roso
If with patience we prune and VIC wait.
Too soon the foot lcarncth sobcrer tread,
The voice tkacs manlior tone;
Too soon the heart knowcth mans wiser
thought,
And youth forever hath flown.
Naught, naught to me is the trouble and
care;
My boys arc my own to-day!
Yet tho battle of lifo, or the night of death,
Soon may bear them forever away.
So I'll scatter the roses of loyo Ger the
paths
Of my rolioking boys whilo may;
For ever remember, those other feet
Tho feet that never shall stray.
