The Picket-Guard.
[Bu Mrs. KofcLand.I

" All quiet along the Potomac - they say.
Except now and then stray picket
Is shot, as he walks on his beat, to and fro,
By rifeman hid in the thcket.
'Tis nothing: private or two, now and then,
VIII not count in the news of the battle;
Not officer lost,-only one Of the naen,
Moaning out, all alone, The death rattle"
All quiet along the Potomac to-night
Where the soldiers lie peacefully dreaminsi
Their tents in the rays of the clear autumn moon,
Or the light of the watch fires, are cleaning.
4 tremulous sigh. as the gentle night wind
Through the forest leaves softly is creeping;
While stars up above. with them gistening eyes.
Keep guard, for the army Is sleeplng.
There's only the sound of the low sentry's tread,
AS he tramps from the rock to the fountain,
Ard he thinks of the two in the low trundle bed.
Far away In the cot on the mountain.
His m,isket falls s:sck his face dark and grim,
Grows gentle with memories tender,
AS ne EuttcTs prayer for the children asleep,
The moon seems to shine just rs brightly as then,
That night when the love yet unspoken
Leaped up to his lips,-when low, nlurInured vows
Were pledged to be unbroken;
Then drawing his sleeve roughly over his eysa,
He dashes off tears that yelling,
And gathers his gun closer up to its place,
AS If to keep down the heart swelling.
He passes the fountain. the blasted pine tres-
Tne footstep is lagging and wearyI
Yet onward he goes, through the broad bels OF
light,
Toward the shades of the forest so dreary.
Harki it the night-wind that rus!led the
leaves?
Was il moonlight SO wondrously fashings
1t looked like rife: Hal Mary, good-byi"
And the life blood is ebbing and piashing.
All quiet along the Potomac tonight
No sound save the rush of the river;
While soft falls the dew the face OF the dead -
The picket's of duty foreysr

Importance Of full supply Of water for

they often suffer from the lack of sufficient
