mlLEs KEoCm's HORSE.

On the bluff OF tho Little Big Horn,
At tho close of woful day,
Custer and his Three Hundred
In death and silence lay.
Three hundred to three thousand
Thoy had brayoly fought ana bied
For such Is tho will OF Congress
Whom tho white man meets the Iiod.
Tho White mon are ton millions,
The thriftiost under tho sun;
Tho Reds arc fifty thousand
And warriors every one.
so custcr and ali his fighting mon
Lay under tho evening skies.
Staring up at tho tranquil heaven
With wide, accusing eyes.
And of all that stood at MONDAY
In that fiery scorpion ring,
Miles Keogh's horse at evening
Was the only living thing
Alone from tho field OF slaue ehior,
Where lay tho three hundred slain,
With Keogh's blood on his name.
And Sturgls issupd this order,
Which future times shall read,
While tho loyo aud honor OF comrades
Aro The soul OF the soldiers croed.

Thus it was
Commanded, aud thus done,
BY order OF General Sturgis, signed
by Adjutant darlington.
Even as the sword of Custer,
In his disastrous fall,
Flashed out blaza that charmed tho world
A nd gioritied hls pail,
This order, issued amid the gloom
That shrouds our army's name,
When all foul beasts arc FREQ To rond
And tear its honest fame,
Shall prove TO a callous pesplo

That the love OF comrades, tho honor oi

FATE Of a iI!ted butcher :

II AIE UI q JIsl6U UutCHCt
He tried In drink to drown his care',
And there found no relief
But daily grew more wee-begene-
You never sausage grief.
At last his weary soul found rest,
His sorrows new are DER;
No tickle maid now troubles him
Pork raacher, he's no more.
