A Phase of Camp Life.

Camp life at Chicamauga has it's bright and it's dark sides. There are a good many hardships to be encoun- tered, but the soldier lad who can't bear little discomfort and even extract certain amount of fun out of it is pretty poor sort of an animal. Now the food, for instance, is often not quite as fine or as plentiful as the av- craze millionaire stay home is ac- customed to sit down to every day. So there is considerable kicking, more or less earnest, as the circumstances seem to demand A West Philadelphia musician has just received from a trumpeter of the First Pennsylvania a little camp song written by trumpet CT of the Fourteenth Minnesota, and set to music by trumpeter of the Sec ond Ohio. It goes:
 Backward, turn backward. o Time in your
 flight;
 Feed me on grub again, just for a night; 1 am weary of sole leather steak, Terrified hardtack a sledge couldn't break; Tomatoes and beans in n watery bath. Sow-belly as strong as Goliath of Gath, Weary of starving on what I can't eat, Chewing up rubber and calling it meat Backward, turn backward, for weary I am, Give me n whack at my grandmamma's jam. Let me drink milk that has never been
 skinned
 Let me eat butter whose hair has been
 trimmed,
 Let me have once more an old-fashoned pie, Then I'll be ready to go south and die. Philadelphia Record.
 A welcome rain commenced to fall last Friday night and filled rain barrels and cisterns, much to the joy of the good housewives of Wrangel. The sum- mer has been indeed a delightful one, and the coolness of the weather has caused feeling of sympathy in our hearts for the people liyiug in the swell tering east.

In giving you what news that
could be culled from this immediate
locality, 1 could do no better than
reiterate the common chat viz, that of
marriage and of raising cotton to an
advantage. Tot the former I cannot we'll
raise any serious objection at this
time, for the voice Of whisper would,
most likely, command me hush !,
thus showing that the Paradisiacal
institution is not totally abrogated,
and further concluding that a happy
marriage is the greatest blessing and
consolation which can be enjoyed on
this side OF eternity In referring to
the latter, l could rehash the oft
repeated estimate of The cost of pro-
duc,ion ETC., but I shall not dwell
upon this. We are to lament that
we know this only too we'll. l must
say that it seems to me, doubly
strange to notice cur farmers, with
their teams, some in good condition,
others not o7erladen with superfuous

force obtainable, in hauling that
