MISOEiT.Ti /\ JTY Thc Confed?rate Dcnd. From the broad und calm Potomac, To the Rio Grantle'? traves. Have the brave and noble fallen, And the earth is strewn with ?rave?. In the vale and on the hill-side. Thro' the woods and by thc stream. Has tho martial pageant faded, Liko the vision of a dream. Where tho reveille resounded, And the stirring call "to arms," Nod the downy heads of clover To the wind's mesmeric charms; Where tho heels of trampling squadrons Beat to dust the mountain pass. Hang the dew-drops' fragile crystals, From the slender stems of grass. Where tho shock of meeting armies Roused the air in raging waves. And with sad and hollow groaning. Echoed earth's deep hidden caves: Where the cries of crushed and dying Pierced the elemental strife, Where lay death in sick'ning horror 'Neath the maddened rush of life Quiet now reigns, sweet and pensive, All is hushed in dreamless rest, And tho pitying arms of nature Hold her heroes on her breast. Shield them well, oh, tender mother, Whilo the morn and evening breath Whispors us, th? sad survivors, Of their victory, in death. What though no stately column Their cherished names may raise. To dim the eye and move the lip With gratitude and praise The blue sky, hung with bannered clouds, Their solemn dome shall be; All Heaven's choiring winds shall chant Tho anthem of thc free. The spring with vine-clad arms shall clasp Their hillocked routing places, And summer roses droop above, With flushed and dewy faces; Fairy daisies, rayed and crowned, shall spring, Like stars from out their dust. And look to kindred tatars on high With eyes of patient trust. And vainly shall the wilting lips Assail with envious dart, Tho fame of our heroic dead, Whose stronghold is the heart The nation's heart-not wholly crushed, Though each throb bc in pain: For lifo and hops will still survive, Where love and faith remain. ? Til's OF THE FASHION.-" They say" \ that one of thc latest fashions with the lathes is wearing long ends of ? narrow ribbon around the neck. Few i of the uninitiated know tho signi- ' ficance of the same. When they wear the ends hanging in front, it \ means that the lady is married ; the ! right shoulder, that she is engaged ; down the back, that she has a " fel 1er " coming to see her, but she isn't I engaged ; over tho. left shoulder, it ! means, "Fellers, come follow ino." I If she does not wear any, it means that she is engaged, and don't wish to : have anything to do with " any other fellow." Charleston Advertisements. STENHOUSE & CO., FORWARDING AND COM.
