that she had committed suicide. She
had, however, disguised herself, put
on mems clothes, and enlisted as a
drummer boy in a Michigan regiment
at Detroit, her sex being known only
to herself. With her regiment she
went into the Army of the Cumber-
land and endured all the hardships of
the Kentucky campaign, in which
many strong men succumbed.

the sailors on the ship commenced to

HIGH TIDE AT GETTYSBURG.

A cloud possessed the hollow field,
The gathering battles smoky shield;
Athwart the gloom the lightning flashed,
And through the cloud some horsemen
dashed
And from the heights the thunder pealed.
Then, at the brief command of Lee,
Moved out that matchIess infantry;
With Pickett leading grandly down
To rush against the roaring crown
OF those dread heights of destiny.
Far heard above the angry guns,
A cry across the tumult runs;
The voice that rang through Shiloh s
woods,
And Chickamauga's solitudes,
The fierce south cheering on her sons.
Oh, how the whitening tempest blew
Against the front of Pettigrew!
A khamsin wind that scorched and singed,
Like that Internal flame that fringed
The British squares at Waterloo!
|'Once more in Glory's van with theeH
Virginia cries to Tennessee;
I'VE two together, come what may,
Shall stand upon those works to-day.
The reddeSt day of history!'
But who shall break the guards that wait
Before the awful face of fate?
The tattered standards of the South
Were shriveled by the lannon's mouth,
And all her hopes were desolate.
In vain the Tennesseean set
His breast against the bayonet;
In vain Virginia charged and ragged,
"A tigress in her wrath, uncaged,
Till all the hill was red and wet!
Above the bayonets mixed and crossed,
Men saw a gray, gigantic ghost
Receding through the battle-cloud,
And heard across the tempest loud
The death-cry of a nation lost!
The brave went down! Without disgrace
They leaned IN
They only heard Fame's thunder wake,
And saw the dazzling sunburnt break
In smiles on Glory's bloody face!

sages from Pretoria confirm the reports
of the departure of President Kruger with
his cabinet and staff officials Tuesday
night, and the selection a meeting of
citizens of a committee to administer the
city Professionally.
Since these kilograms left on Wednesday
nothing apparently has reached Lourenzo
Marques by telegraph from Pretoria. Pos
sibly the wires have been cut. Possibly
the Boer censorship at some intermediate
point Interrupts kilograms.
Although the war office has not received
n word about 1t. no one In London harbors
the idea that the Boer capital is not al
ready IN the hands of the British or about
TO be there. The possession of Johannes
burg at oil events, as Lord Roberts has
telegraphed Is n fact. States Attorney
SHUTS did not depart with President kru-
ger. but remained In Pretoria. The present
seat of the Boer government, according
to n dispatch from Lourenzo Marques,
dated yesterday. is Middleburg, but 1t will
probably be shifted further east.

The press dispatches from the head
quarters of Lord Roberts give no estimate
as TO the number OF Beers who were
fighting General French and General Ian
Hamilton Monday and Tuesday but they
all agree that the Beers retired and that
the British casualties were slight.
