The Bivouac of the Dead.

THE muffled drums sad roll has beat
The soldiers last tattoo,
No more on life's parade shall meet
The brave and fallen few.
On fame's enternab camping ground
Their silent tents are spread,
And glory guards with solemn round
The bivouac of the dead"
Such is the first verse Of that grand
poem by Theodore OFHara, written in
lS47. 1t arouses all the patriotic fer
yer, loyalty and devotion to country
and flag, and carries US back to the
cradle and hearth stone Of our country
through all its struggles, and vicis-
situdes which it has passed until this
day sees us one OF the mighty nations
of earth; occupying a commanding
position second to none on earth. The
American soldier knows no defeat,
which has been proven on many bat
tlefeld, for he is deeply in earnest, and
has never engaged in war over trifies.
So let US with patriotic devotion enter
into the true spirit the coming memori-
al obeervances on May 2sth aud 3Oth,
for Gods mercy has fallen like the
gentle dews Of heaven giving US peace
and universal prosperity.
