MEMORIES.

rnerc nrc strains OF sweet music through mem.
ory ringing,
Subdued in the hush OF the lcngthening
years;
Chey are voices of loved ones now hushed from
their singing
Died out in the rush OF the gathering tears.
There are perfumes so rare they yet linger
around us
And greet us again in n desolate hour;
we think OF the ties OF affection that bound us
AT the breath OF the rose or the jasmine
flower.
There are voices We hear where the pine trees
are signing,
That whisper the song OF day that has fed,
And up from our hearts come the echoes re-
plying
From memories once that we fanc.ed were
dead.
we scent the wild flowers and we hear the bees
humming,
And see the loved faces of youth from afar-
sTis only q wanderer lazily strumming
Some air OF our childhood upon his guitar
And we think of the past and we learn of the
present,
And we dream OF the life in the future to be,
AS we sit in the calm of the evening, pleasant,
And hear the wild breakers sweep in from
the sea.
Their lives linked with ours, as the moments
are fleeing
Like blossoms that grow mid the desert
their bloom
Perfuming the depths OF our innermost being
And finging its fragrance round even the
tomb.
George b. Hynson, in Philadelphia Call.

Picketts charge the relator was sta
toned down toward tho edge of tho
wheat field, and he was sent out in
charge of squ?d to relieve the picket
in copse of woods. Meeting the SER
geant he was about to relieve, he asked
him what his orders were. He was in
formed, and among other things the
picliets were not to fire. why" said
the relieving sergeant, they are firing
right now. Why don't you stop them?"
o, we'll, they are justhaving little fun
in there. The rebels have got possess
sion of stretch OF stone wall and our
boys swear they are going to take it
away from them" Our informant went
in and soon he and his men were as
deep in "fun" rs their predecessors, not
withstanding their orders not to fire.
They kept it up, dodging behind trees
and working around the woods until
they got flank fire, ran in on the stone
wall and captured it. They had their
fun and accomplished their Object
