The Philosophy of Remembrance

Frdnkiun ". Lee.
They say mar forgets, while a woman will
treasure
The dreams given birth when love bright
ened her eyes,
And still thrill her heart with q touch of the
pleasure
The girl felt on seeing cloud shapes In her
skies.
But what would you say
If told of the vision l see in the azure
That rises tonight from my witch-bowl of
clayl
I W myself naught but a crusty old fellow,
And there sits my wife, singing some one
to sleep,
While time bears me on to the sere and the
yellow.
But boyhood's fa,r memories ever will
And locked in my breast
Are some like old wine that the years have
made mellow,
or which 1 partake with a connoissieur's
zest.
Two loves has each man in the course of
his drifting,
The first like the breath of an exquisite
rose;
The second more beautiful, hardy, uplifting
A rose-vine that circles the heart as it
grows;
And one is so frail
That life's weary winds, in their merciless
shifting,
Blow on till the petals are lost in the gale.
But, though 1t be fragile, the first is essential,
Since through it the manlier passion gains
sway,
Expands meath the light of remembrance pc.
tential
And finds newer strength in the others
decay.
The first Is soon dead;
Yet had it not lived by decree providential,
The passion now priced were a poor thing
instead.
And so, when 1 see, in the smoke drifting
round me,
The sweet, childish face of my ''maid of
the mist"
Who came when the best years of life had
not found me-.
I'm grateful to her, since loves pleasures
exist.
For had she not flown
To loosen the trammels in which childhood
pound rue,
The love l feel now 1 might never have
known.
The wife understands if She pauses to reason
The love of the boy for the girl in the past
The passion that came in youths wonderful
season,
When loves rosy flame burned too fiercely
to last;
And she will confess,
With womamly trust, that she deems it not
treason
If one gives a thought to the old happiness.
And |, while my heart feels the old thrill 1
treasure,
Look into the dark eyes that mirrored my
love
When she whom | see in the circle of azure
Seemed one Of the angels from regions
above,
And throw her a kiss,
And thank her for sowing the seed Of the
pleasure
/ reap in the Eden of marital bliss.

COLONEL FowLER's WAR HORSE
He Took Part in over Thirty Battles
and is still Ewing.

When Colonel Samuel Fowler, the
founder of Port Jervis. and at one time
chairman OF the democratic state COM
mlttee Of New York, went 10 the war in
1862 at the head of the Fifteenth New
Jersey volunteers, says the Pittsburg
Dispatch, II regiment recruited IN his
native county of Sussex, some
OF his friends in both states united
in presenting him with "a
charger. They selected the ~six-year-
old brown gelding Restless, by Rysdyk's
Hambletonian and a Harry Clay mare,
raised by George G.. Shaw, of Newton,
and already famous for style and speed.
Colonel Fowler rode his young charger
at the head Of the gallant Fifteenth
regiment through two hard fought cam
paigns, and until he himself wal con-
strained to retire from the service by
the malady which afterward caused his
death.
On Colonel fowler's retirement Rest
less passed into the hands of Rev. A. A.
Haines, chaplain of the regiment, and
the sou of n former famous governor of
New Jersey. Thereafter the horse was
loaned 10 and ridden by General Tor
betduring the seven days fearful strug-
gle of the Wilderness but otherwise,
until the close of the war, he was
mainly employed by his master in tho
merciful duties of carrying succor and
consolation to the wounded ON the bat
tleiield, aud helping the sick and weary
on the long march.
Restless O part in more than thirty
battles and skirmishes, including the
bloody engagements of Petersburg,
Fredericksburg, Winchester, the Wild
erness, and Gettysburg, and carries the
C of a wound received in the last
napnad hattla Whan the Aar nndnh
Chaplain Haines brought the horse
home TO his farm at Hamburg, and has
since held the war-wornc charger among
his most cherished possessions. For five
years past Restless has beer h%onorably
retired from all work, aud having the
free run Of pasture and stables. At
thirty-three years old he is still COM
parativeiy healthy and active. and bids
fair to live for some years To come.

THE LIFE OF A REGULAR.
A Private Discusses the Position

A Private Discusses the Position
Taken BY Colonel Henry.
Fort MEADE, Oak, Sept. 20.-To the
Editor of The BEE: l have read the opinion
of Colonel G.. V. Henry in regard to deser-
tions from the army, and will prove to you
that the colonel is mistaken and that he con-
tradicts himself by his own statement, which
you published in The BEE.
In the first place he says soldier a has to do
a certain amount of police work N order to
keep the garrison clean. The doing of this
work. as it, is required to be done, is not
not always agreeable, but it is necessary.
Again he says a man enlists TO be a soldier.
AS soon as he comes to a garrison he is de.
tailed to drive a team, or as company cook,
carpenter, mason, etc. He enlists to avoid
this, and yet he has forced upon HIM an
occupation for which he didn't enlist.
AS far as police duty is concerned, every
man OF ordinary sense knows that that is u
soldiers duty. haven't heard any grumbling
among the privates in regard to doing that
kind of work, but is IL reasonable to compel
him to work in saw mills, log camps, getting
out rock from a quarry, to make boulevards,
digging bitches, ETC., and then expect HIM to
be a good, clean and well-drilled soldieri L
have seen il, when we would have to be in
the field for target practice at 4 a. m., then
go home again at about 3 O'Clock and drill
WITH "a PICK ana SnOVel LOT elpnl SOOu hours;
after that stand dress parade, and then on
the following morning go on guard for
twenty-four hours. Who wouldn't growl at
such treatments In addition to this he must
torment his mind with the thought that he
must put in five years at such a service, for
which he didn'te enlist. Why don't u recruit
ing officer acquaint a person with all these
facts before he enlists himt II he did, L be-
lieve there would be none left but the officers
10 constitute the army.
Another great wrong done to a recruit is
when he is told that he can save at least $50
out of his clothing allowance during his en-
lstment. This can not he done. He has to
add rather this amount out of his own pay if
he intends to have the appearance of a neat
ooking soldier. lts A PRIVATE
