Pit) Wife and Cljilb. 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!

Usalm tin. 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. NO. 6.
