THE STORY OF A REFUGEE.
BY M T. M.
SOFT winds make melody among the
leaves this fair summer morning; birds
are singing merrily among the branches of
the elm that shades my window ; and a few
sunbeams hat have strayed through the
thick, gre n canopy, are dancing gaily oVer
my pap'-r, as if they' would lure me into
thJfieen fields.
B it while my eyes roam over the beau
t's. l scene around, my thoughts wander fat
a a ay, to one more lonely.
1 see again the green valley with its gir
die of dark mountains. A blue river winds
through wood and meadows, bearing the
gifts silver streamlets have brought, with
laughter and song, from springs that gush
from.the mountain’s brow to the Mononga
hela.
My thoughts find their centre on agentk
eminence near its banks, where a white cot
tage once stood, embowered among stately
trees. Vines clambered over the portic<
aid festooned the windows, and the cure
fully kept yard was filled with beautiful
shrubbery. A casual observer would have
thought it a home where peace and happi
ness dwell, and such it was Sorrow but
seldom found a place within those walls.—
Fain would my pen pause to tell of those
happy days. K ain would I strive to believe
the scenes of the past year have been but a
fearful dream. But the sadness resting on
each brow, and the silent aching of my own
heart, recall me to the sad reality. The
sha lows that, during the past year, have
darkened so many homes, have, fallen upon
ours too.
One year ago I had a brother, a youth of
twenty summers, named Elward. When
Virginia roused herself for the conflict, and
called her sons to rally around her standard,
he grasped the sword, and resolved to die,
if need be, in her defence. Many of his
friends and companions also volunteered ;
and one morning, fair with June sunshine
and fragrant witli the breath of her roses,
they hade adieu to home and friends, and
marched away to join the little army that
lay between us and the foe.
A few weeks after, tidings came that our
army was falling back before a superior
force of the enemy.
Only those who have learned by bitter
experience (ala •! how many such there are)
can real ze the feelings of those who expect
to be left, to the mercy of our remorseless
foe; and how doubly painful the fear and
suspense are, when it is known there are
individuals in the community willing, and
even desirous, to aid the enemy in their
deeds of wickedness. There were such
among us, and we could see their exultant
looks -is we heard the slow, sullen retreat
of our small force and the boastful advance
of the enemy.
T 'e army made a stand a few miles from
our village, and resolved to aw ait an attack
there. The enemy paused awhile, then be
gan to move forward again.
Putting our trust in Him who rules on
high, we endeavored to await the end calm
ly. We knew our soldiers would fight as
men defending our homes should fight ; but
we trembled sometimes, when we consider
ed the vast inequality of our force—for our
fate hung upon the issue, and we knew not
what mi .ht happen to our loved in that lit
tle band.
One ii\ Elward came to see us. He
*w;is v i-y , > erful and hopeful.
“D > not tear the result. We will have
an im uense force to contend against; but
we nave justice on our side, and think we
will certainly gain the viet >ry. unless some
unforeseen disaster occurs,” were his part
ing words.
1 he next morning the roar of cannon and
the rattle of musketry awoke the sleeping
echoes of the mountains.
\\ hen the night closed, our army was
retreating. Our brave soldiers had fought
as only they Could tight, and, notwithstand
ing the immense odds against them, had
c >vered the ground with Yankee slain, and
might have gained a victory, but a traitor
guided the enemy to their rear, and they
could only save themselves by hasty re
treat. A few of their heroic band were left
dead upon their field of glory, but the loss
w « small compared w ith that of the enemy.
. y brother E 1 ward passed unhurt thro’i
’e thu-kext of the fight; and that evening,
weiry rt ,,d begrimed with the smoke and '
oust Os battle, he paused to bid farewell to
< <>tm t iat would know him no more. 1
he next morning We h, u ked for the last
tme upon our home. | t never appeared
more beautiful, never seemed m r m
, < i ■ " ,eu more dear, i
turn when *e left it. not km.wing whether
we would ever behold it again. \V v <r«ed
through blinding tears, until the tops vt the I

lofty oaks were lost in the distance, think- ,
mg how the feet of the foe would desecrate!
every spot, and his hands delight to spoil
a hat ever was dear to us.
We hoped the enemy would be driven
>ack in a few weeks; but weeks have
lengthened into months, and months into a j
year, and he still has possession of our val-'
ley. It has been made a waste, and where
our home was is now a heap of ashes.
A few months since, a fierce battle was
■ fought in the western part of our State;
aud there, when the battle raged hottest,
my brother Edward fell, pierced through '
the breast by a bullet. A short time after 1
he received the wound, a comrade went to !
? his side, raised his head and spoke to him.
“Tell mother,” Edward said feebly, and'
’ then his voice sank to a low whisper. The!
I soldier bent his head to catch bis words,
■ but could only hear him say, “Father—
sister —all—Heaven.”
Presently exultant cheers were heard ;
Elward opened his eyes and lifted his head;
the enemy were retreating in confusion;
" loud and clear he shouted “Victory”; the
blood gushed afresh from his wound, he
sank back in the soldier’s artjjs. and my
brother was dead. Our Father who art in
heaven, Thy will be done.
They laid his bright head under the sod
that was wet with his blood; no stone
II marks his resting place, but he sleeps
among the nameless dead who fell upon that
glorious field.
? There lies before me, now, a letter, penn
f edby him on the evening previous to his
1 death. He writes:
“I have’ passed unhurt through many
dangers, but this fact does not make me
think lam not to fall in this war. lam
willing to die for my country, and would
only live that 1 might aid to the last in res
* cuing her from the hands of those who plot
her ruin. Etch day our cause grows near
er my heart, until it has almost become a
part of iny b>- ng. If it is to be my fate to
S die a soldier’s death, and 1 could choose lime
and place, I would have it on a battle-field
? in Western Virginia. I would like to fall
' ' in the thickest of the fight, and be buried
l ' among the grand old mountains, whose air
I have always breathed. Here, far away
from the busy haunts of men, how sweetly
1 would sleep.”
’ His wish was granted.
’ Our cup of sorrow was not yet full. I
had a sister named Grace, a frail, beautiful
child, with mild blue eyes and flaxen ring
lets. After Ed ward’s death her c heek grew
pale; when she smiled, it was a smile - of
f heavenly sweetness, and her eyes beamed
with a light that was not of earth. One
spring day she laid down upon her bed and
never rose again.
1 It was on a balmy May evening we as
-1 sembled in her room to see her die. She
' gave each one a tender, loving farewell ;
looked lor the last time upon the earth,
- robed in all the beauty of spring; let the
1 fragrant air play’on her cheek and lilt her
curls ; then bowed her head on our mother’s
bosom, closed her eyes, clasped her hands,
‘ and went down to the shores (if the dark
river; trustingly, she laid her hand in that
’ I of Death, and was safely borne across the
’,flood.
How lovely she was when robed for the
’ grave, flowers gemming her hair and breath
ing out their fragrance on her bosom ! In
’i one hand was clasped a withered bouquet,
J one she had gathered the morning we left
our home. Two days before her death, she
had asked to see it, and, on returning it to
me, requested that I would place it there
r when she was dead.
I have one brother left, a boy just enter
' ing his teens, who longs to fill the place left
' vacant in the army by Edward, and revenge
his death.
J When we left our home, Time’s fingers
had not silvered a thread of my mother’s
I glossy brown hair; but now, each day,as I
brush out the long thick masses, I see how
fast it is becoming gray. But one earnest
look at her patient face, that wears the sweet
old smile, would convince you she had
learned the lesson of Peace. When the
vain inquiry, so often in our hearts, rises
|to our lips, “The end, when will it be?”
j she always answers, in her low, musical
‘ j tones, “When G<>d pleases.”
