Reliance.
by Henry Van Dyke, D. d.

Not to the swift, the race;
Not to the strong, the fight;
Not to the righteous, perfect grace;
Not to the wise, the light.
But often faltering feet
Come surest to the goal;
And they who walk in darkness meet
The sunrise OF the soul.
A thousand times by night
The Syrian hosts have died;
- thousand times the vanquished right
Hath risen. glorifed.
The truth the wise men sought
Was spoken by a Child;
The alabaster box was brought
In trembling hands defiled.
Not from my torch the CLEAN,
But from the stars above;
Not from my heart LIES crystal stream
But from the depths OF Love.

ton for this purpose. however and so the
change was not made The guard is under
command of Col ], Gray Estey OF Brat
tleboro, a thorough disciplinarian and an
excellent soldier. Adjt.-Gen Gilmore Of
Fairlee is state quartermaster and has
things in readiness for the camp. This
year the work will be along the lines OF
the regular service in the army, and for
several months the company captains have
been studying assiduously the new tatics
to be carried out and drilling the COM
panies faithfully and well. The entire
regiment will participate in the exercises
Of Aug. 16 in Burlington, when the me-
mortal tower will be dedicated to the
memory of Ethan Allen of revolutionary
fame. Features of the encampment will
be a practice march, target practice for
