THE REGIMENT MARCHES AWAY.
"^f J' T was springtime at Mobile.
1 Events had moved rapidly.
Tlie Southern Confederacy
W!ls fully organized. Fort
Sumter had been fired upon. President
Davis and President Lincoln had each
called for troops. Mobile had joyously
offered its contingent, and today the
first battalion of the first regiment to
depart was leaving for the front. The
march of events had made Itob Darrow
a major, and Corporal Pleasants,
bis friend, was now a second lieutenant
in what had been the Light infantry.
in Darrow's battalion. The troops
were ordered to leave at 3 o'clock. It
was half after "J now, and lie was still
lingering in the parlor at Annandale.

than ever. A change had come
over him too. Rough soldiering, hard
living and high thinking had sobered

Peyton had sat beside Mary Annan on
their horses watching the troops march
by. The better side of his nature had
been aroused. Very handsome lie looked
in his new gray uniform, booted and
spurred and belted, his saber clanking
at ids side. The girl's heart went out
to him pleading there with every advantage
that man could possess for
her affection. lie had courted her as
if her avowal upon the porch had not
been spoken, and she had rejoiced in
the delicacy of feeling which had restrained
him from the faintest allusion
to it. She had resolutely put out of

she had ngl *ed to be Dnrrow's

."When you come back," she said, "a
victor; when this war, which will probably
be soon concluded, is over and we
have conquered, you may claim me.
Until then you?we?will wait. I promise
you ou my word and honor, the
AiiHnn word, the honor of a southern
woman, that 1 shall be yours- at that
time?Robert."
IIow sweet the unfamiliar name
sounded In bis ear!
"My* dear, my dear," be cried, "you
send mo away with such a hope In my
heart, such an incentive before my
eyes, as will make me a paladin of
valor! And you have made mo selfish
too. 1 shall tight now not so much for
the south'fts for you."
"No," -said the girl; "the laud, our
dear land, lirst of*ull."
"Nothing, nothing." protested Darrow
vehemently, "shall be first but
you. And now, having won you, 1
must go."
lie stopped and looked wistfully at
her.
"Take off your sword," she said softly.
"Unbuckle It and hand it to me;
the belt too."
Wondering, ho complied with her request.
"Now, stand there, still."

He was very close to her then.
"Mary," he said Interrogatively, and,
not waiting for au answer, ho swept
her Into bis anus and almost crushed

her against his breast.
She struggled feebly, turned her bead
away, but lie caught lier elieek with
his haud and before she knew It turned
her face toward hlui and pressed a
passionate kiss upon her lips. It was
the second time a young man had
kissed lier.
Before she could cry out or ufhke resistance
or utter a word he had released
her ami rushed from the room.
That kiss brought her to herself. It
awoke the sleeping truth in her heart. |
It was not like the other. There was
agony in the thought. Must she ho
the slave to a passion for a traitor to
her country? Was she to break the
honest heart of the young soldier who
had* gone from her full of hope and
Joy and elation? She swore in lier
soul that she would not. She would
make him happy. Yet, for all that.

hearted woman can.
The music In the streets called her
to her senses again. As she had done
on that never to be forgotten night,
she resolutely dried her tears and I
opened the window and stepped up m |
the gallery. The soldiers were making I
a parade through the town before they j
marched away. They were far up the j
street now. The music came to her '
faintly. The band was playing "Pix- ?
le," a tune which had thrilled and was !
to thrill half a continent with Its in- !
fectlous melody and which was to be ,
enshrined in southern hearts until tlie I
day of judgment should come.
Presently the music stopped, and the !
cadence was kept up by the rattling of 1
the drums. They were nearer now. <
The streets were full of people, black
and white, rich and poor, high and
low, cheering and shouting madly. It
was a sunny, brilliant afternoon. The
lights sparkled upou the bayonets,
flashed from the brass buttons, gleamed
on the otlicers' swords. There was
the regiment itself, some of the companies
already uniformed in the then
unfamiliar Confederate gray, and following
it were the escorting companies.
soon to march to the front themselves
in answer to similar calls. The
troops represented every nationality
that made up the composite town. The
city which had known four flaps?tin*
French, tlie Spanish, the English and
the United. States?was noyv under the
fifth?the stars and bars borne by the
color company In tbccfront of the line.
"As the troops approached lier the
sound of the cheering grow in volume
until as they passed the place where
she stood it was a perfect roar. Yet
not everybody was cheering. Women
looked out upon the moving mass with
white, se,t faces. Mothers sobbed, fathers
trembled, wives yearned; hearts
were breaking as the soldiers passed
by. They l ad passed by many a time
on one oeension or another, but this
time they wore going to meet real war.
It would be j*ears before any of them
came back to that town. Indeed hundreds
of those who stepped gayly to
the music in the pride of their youth,
buoyant with hope, mad with the eagerness
of inexperience to fight, would,
never eome back at aty. The regiment
would write Its name high upon tlie
roll of heroic organizations; Its children
would sleep till the eternal awakening
on many bloody fields from the
iCannahannock to the Missic?inni
Pence to tlieni! Glory to them!
Thoughts of this kind rose in the
mind of the girl nnd almost choked
her. There nt the head was little Colonel
Withers, with Lieutenant Colonel
Lomnx, and there, looking straight to
the front, like the soldier he was, rode
her lover. She stared at him so Intensely
that for one brief moment his
face swerved nnd he shot one look at
her. The glance was so fraught with
passionate devotion, so permeated-with
buoyant hope, with loving gratitude,
with resolution, with determination,
that she shrank ijnder it almost as If
her heart had been pierced by an arrow.
In that one brief glance she saw
the soul of that man who loved her as
she had never before seen it, and it
was a good sight. And he carried away
with, him the picture of her as she
stood above him, with her hands
elasped across her bosom, gazing nt
him. lie would carry that memory
Into eternity itself.
As they looked nt each other the
fifes nnd drums of the regiment broke
Into the shrilling of the "Mocking
Dlrd," nnd with that air ringing in his
ear nnd her picture in his eye ho
marched away.
As she turned to go into the house
the guns of the battery roared out a
final salute as the young soldiers, full
of hope, embarked on the steamer for
Montgomery.
"My dear child," said Judge Annan,
coining Into the parlor and finding
Mary sobbing on the sofa, with little
Teuipe, very quiet now, kneeling by
her side und stroking her hand with
that infinite tact which sometimes very
small children have, "why are you
crying?"
"For ? for ? everything, father. I
promised Mr. Bob Dprrow to be his
wife when the war Is over and we
have conquered, with your consent, sip.
J egpnot help but think how many of
them won't?won't come back," she
sobbed.
"The war seems to get nearer to us,
my child," said the old man solemnly.
"This is only the beginning. Alas, our
poor country, our poor country!"
"Is Mr. Darrow going to shoot the
Nunlted States, Sister Mary.?" asked
Tempo softly, In an awestruck VQlpe.

the far sighted of the hopelessness of
the endeavor to form a southern confederacy
unless t lie situation might be

with resolution unabated they
still fought on. The decimated, depleted
battalions still looked to their
weapons and held their lines. Nay.
more, with impetuous gallantry they
actually assumed the offense on every
possible opportunity.
With one!, hour of tlie struggle some I
of the bitterness of it disappeared. The
personal antagonism which had been
so prominent was blown away by the
cannon. Strange as it may seem, they
fought good na Iurodly?almost good
humorodly? and without malevolence.
They still cherished the principles for
which they contended, they were still
determined and resolute to enforce
them, but they did not bate and despise
each other as a whole. Every
battle showed this. It was the politicians,
the noncombatants, the prison
guards, the contractors, who hold and
nourished the rancor. And, forgive
me, to this class may lie added the women.
They are the only unreconstructed
class today. For this there was a
reason.
The hardest of humanity's tasks is
waiting while others act. To sit passive
at home while the struggle is
waged abroad; to watch with sinking
heart for reports from the battle; to
scan witn tiontiiy anxiety tlio monotonous
lists of killed and wounded, fearful
for the sight of a beloved name;
to be left alone, to find oneself a widow
In the twinkling of an eye, a mother
bereft; to be hungry, ill clad, to feel
want where plenty had been; to have
children clamor and have nothing
wherewith to satisfy them; to wait in
terrified apprehension for the coming
of the conquerors; to summon cheerfulness
from breaking heart and trembling
lip; to welcome the return of the
defeated; to tly before the battle in the
morning; to search upon the stricken
field in the evening; to kneel by tlie
bedsido of the dying in the hospital?
ah, God, this is what war means for
women!
What wonder, then, that most of
them were bitter? Tried in that awful
tire, Mary Annan had omerered from
the test, as far as it had boon completed,
another woman. The old judge,
stricken to the heart by the division of
his unhappy country, had pined and
failed. When the news came blowing
down the wind on that July day that
Vlcksburg had fallen and that the
great artery of the Mississippi beat
and throbbed under the old Hag of the
