A soldier’s prayer.
The tattoo beats, the lights are gone,
The camp around in slumber lies,
The night with solemn pace moves on,
And sad, uneasy thoughts arise;
I think of thee, oh, dearest one;
Whose love iny early life hath blessed;
Os thee and him our baby son,
Who slumbers on thy gentle breast.
God of the tender, hover near
To her whose watchful eye is wet;
The mother, wife —the doubly dear —
And cheer her drooping spirits yet.
Now, while she kneels before thy Throne,
Oh, teach her, Ruler of the skies I
No tear is wept to thee unknown, : ‘a
Np hair is lost, no sparrow'dies;
That thou canst stay the ruthless hand
Os dark disease, and soothe its pain;
That only by thy stern command
The battle’s lost, the soldier slain;
By day, by night—in joy or woe —
By fears oppressed, or hopes beguiled,
From every danger, every foe,
Oh, God! protect my wife and child!

1 A meditation upon the mighty power, 7 and
wonderful 18 pi ovidence of God. •
BLESS the Lord, O my soul, O Lord my
God, thou art very great; thou art
clothed with honor and majesty.
2 Who covereth himself with light as
a garment; who stretchest out his heavens
like a curtain:
3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers
in the water; who maketh the clouds his
chariot; who walketh upon the wings of
the wind:
4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his
ministers a flaming fire:
5 Who laid the foundations of the earth,
that it should not be removed for ever.
6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with
a garment; the waters stood above the
mountains,
7 At thv rebuke they fled ; at the voice of
thy thunder they hastened away.
8 They go up by the mountains; they go
down by the valleys into the place which
thou bast founded for them.
9 Thou hast set a bound that they may
not pass over; that they turn not again to
cover the earth.
10 He sendeth the springs into the val
leys, which run among the hills.
11 They give drink to every beast of the
field ; the wild asses quench their thirst.
12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven
have their habitation, which sing among
the branches.
13 He watereth the hills from his cham
bers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of
thy works.
14 He causeth the grass to grow for the
cattle, and herb for the service of man;
that he may bring forth food out of the
earth:
15 And wine that maketh glad the heart
of man, and oil to make his face to shine,
and bread which strengthenfeth man’s
heart.
16 The trees of the Lord are full of sap;
the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath
planted;
17 Where the birds make their nests; as
for the stork, the fir trees are her house.
18 The high hills are a refuge for the
wild goats; and the rocks for the conies.
Mr. Joseph M. Brown, of the Wes
tern & Atlantic Railroad, has sent out
to the public a valentine which is
delicate and dainty enough for a bride
groom. It is called “The Story of a
Song,” and is a prose poem descriptive
of Allatoona and Sherman’s famous
sky signal from Kenneeaw to General
Corse on Allatoona. It is gotten up
in the highest style of the art, and is
unquestionably the railroad hit of the
season. — Tribune of Rome.
