I'm sittin' on the stile, Mary.
Where we sat side by side

I'm sittin' on the stile, Mary,
Where we sat side by side Nh
Oh bright May mornin long ago. s
when first you were my bride:
The corn was springin' fresh and green.
And The lark sang loud and high,
And the red was on your lip, Mary,
\ And the love lightin your eye.
The place is little changed, Mary,
The day is bright as then,
The lark g loud song is in my ear,
And the corn IL green again;
But miss the soft clasp of your hand.
And your breath warm on my cheek.
And still keep list'nin' for the words
You never more may speak.
Ills but step own yonder lane,
AND the little church stands near.
1he CHURCH where we were wed, Mary
Isee thesp from here.
But the graveyard lies between. Mary
And my step might break your rest
For I've laid you, darling down to sleep,
3 With your baby on your breast.
I'm very lonely now, Mary,
Fol- the poor make no new friends.
But oh! they love the better still,
The few our Father sends!
And you were all had, Mary,
My blessin' aud my pride;
There's nothing left to care for now,
Since my poor Mary died.
Yours was the goot brave heart, Mary,
That slill kept hoping on,
When the trust in God had left my soul,
And my arms young strength was gone;
There was comfort ever on your lip,
And a kind look on your BROW 49,.
+ bless you, Mary, for that same,
Though you cannot hear me now,
I thank you for the patient smile
When your heart was fit to break,
When the hunger pain was gnawin' there,
And you hid it, for my sake!
bless you for the pleasant word,
When your heart was sad and sore
Oil r m thankful you are gone, Mary.
Where grief can't reach you morei
Ian biddin' you long farewell,
My Mary--kind and true!
But III not forget you, darling'
In the land I'm going to-
They say there's bread and work for all,
And the sun shines always there
But I'll not forget old Ireland,
Were 1t fifty times as tair
And often in those grand old woods
I'll sit, aud shut my eyes.
And my heart will travel back again
To the pace where Mary hes
And I'll think III sec the little stile
WHARF wa sat 81 Ne nv side
and the springin' corn aud the bright Ms
morn,
when first you We're my bride!

GOOD SAILORS DESERT.

The number of desertions that actual
ly occurred while the foreign ships Of
war were here has not been published,
but since no complaint has been heard
from the commanders generally, the
number cannot have been large Down
at Old Point Comfort, just rs the ships
were weighing anchor to move up to
this city, a reporter for the New York
Sun asked the captain of one Of the
English ships how many men he lost
in Virginia.
only four, sir" said the captain,
but, damn it, they were the wrong
four When we dropped anchor here
| called up a number Of men that
had had my eyes on for a long time
and l said to them: Look here,
heard you're a bad lot. You're always
making trouble aboard ship. I'll tell
you what III do with you. I'll give you
five shillings apiece if youll cut and
run when you 90 ashore here.
That's what | said TO them. but
they're with me yet. You can't get
rid of bad pennies like them They'd
rather stay and stir up mischief damn

more of them take French leave in
