THE LonDSJJF LABOR,
Tlioy come, they cmno. In a glorious nmrch,
You can hear their slcnm-stccils ni lsh,
At they dash throuch Skill's trli.mphal arch,
Or plunge mlil the ilitncliiKspray,
Their bale firesblazc in tho mighty lorge.
Their llfc-pulse llnvib? In Hie mill.
Their llghtningi shiver the gaplns gorge.
And their thunders shake the hill,
lint thmo tiro theTltani of loll anil trade,
The heroes v.hn whld no salirei
But mightier conquest t eapeth the blade
That Is borne by the Lords of latbor.
Dravo hearts like Jeuels light (he sod,
Through the mlsls of commerce shlnc,
And snuh Hash out, like stars of fiod,
From tho midnight of the mine,
No palace is theirs, no castle great,
No princely plllar'd hull;
lint tlioy tvell m;t laugh at the roofs of stale
'Neath the heaven which li over all.
Ilolthese are the Titans of toll r.ml trade.
The heroes who wkld no sabre;
Itut mightier conquests i cnpinh the blade
Which U borne by Iho Lords of Ijibor.
Each bares his arm for the ringing slrtfc
That marshals the sons of the soil.
And the sw eat-drops shed In their battle of
life
Are gems In the crown of toll.
And belter their well-worn wreaths, I trow.
Tnan laurel! with life-blood wot;
And noUer the nreh of a Pare, bold brow
Than a clap of a coronet.
Then hurrah for each hero, although his

For hotter, h iiinle,- tar Is the meed

uy maroaiiet jinmiiA wrtiaiiT.
The last war In uh'eli our country was
engaged, and which hanpened before
some of our readers were born, was a
civil war; anil civil wars have ever been
tho most dreadful of any in the world's
history.
For civil warnevcr arises except from
a bitterness of feeling between members
of one. great family, as It were, and in
it fathor ls arrayed against son, brotlinr
against brother. Such wars aro a
thousand times more intense and full of
fierce t escntments than are w ars between
different nations.
In some respects, ours was the saddest
and most dreadful of all civil wars; but
of tiic.c f.i.1 and dreadful things it Is
better not to speak. They aro past.
Let its bury forever everything that
would call tt; a shadow of the old fccl
Ingt that wrought such disaster and
sorrow in so many communities nnd
homos.
Ono spring day, when oft winds came
sighing up from the deso'ated t'outh,
aid our war in tho North was at Its
gloomiest per"ol, a sl;lrmth took place
between two reootmoiterlng parties of
Northern and Southern f-oldlers, on the
bank's of a Southern river. But hardly
had thev met, nnd exchanged a few vol
leys, when the troops rctrc-vc' very
willing. I suspect, to let each other
alone, unprepared as they wcro for an
encounte.
They left, tho green grass all trampled
to death the poor little buttercups that
ha I lifted sHi b ight, laughing faces
by the roadside, bcatan beneath horsos'
hoofs, and drowned In blool; while the
sweet whlto daisies, that had danced In
the wind ever since winter, as simple'.as
happy, and as bwect In the time of war
as in tho tltre of psace, would never
again lift their pale faces from their
golden graves.
After tho skirmish, each party carried
away its wounded; not w thout jeering
cries at each other as they departed
rather swiftly, it may bo said such as
"Good-bye, Yank!"
"Coiuo ajaln, J dinhy Rob!''
Some quarter of a mile away, perched
ttpon a gresn knoll, . and surrounded
with blossoming peach, trees, whoso
fragrance- drew bco ani bird from afar,
was a. mined borne,
Once, mis home bad been a charming
conntry-housc Up and down the road
that led to It many guests had ridden,in
laughing, slnslng !avalcadcs. On its
v.'Uu verandas daintily-robod figures had
flitted to and fro, and tho wide open
doors and windows had given gllnipsos
of the generous and tUtely hospitality
that wits a household custom In the
South,
But now It was glasnlaw, with shat
tered chimneys, unhinged doors and
broken verandas silent, ruined, al.
though not wholly duserted.
The din, tho danger, the wrong of
war had raged about It many a timc.and
had robbed It not only of its lielovod
' only son, but of Its sweat content, Its
merry guests, its servants, lu oattle, Its
horses everything exoopt the careworn
mistress and two frightened little girls,
who only stayed until it became impo
slble for them to gut away, bectuso they
could no( make up their minds to desert

their home, endcated to thein by such
associations.
"Oh, tuararaa! they arc OghUng ngaln
In the road!" cried Anijlc, running Into
the onoo beautiful parlor, where, over a
few burning sticks, the mother was try
lug to reduce tlio fibrous tenacity of
"Old Ben."
Tills was the second day that tho and
her small fire hail struggled thus with
Old Ben's post mortem stubbornness,
and the end was cvldtptly not yet,
Old Ben, tho venerable patriarch of
the barnyard, had cackled uud crowed
wound tho house before the troops oc
cupied this nart of the country, llo
had survived all his family, for the shnr
pie reasons that he had more discretion
than valor, mid was loo wise an old cock
tj fly shrlcltlng Into the peach trees
when pursued by unl forms, blue orfirayi
as his flock nltvavs did,
No: Old Ben knew a socret worth two
of that, and always hid himself silently
under his mistress bed, thus reserving
himself for a better fate than that of
feeding roaring soldiers, bragging of
hcn-roo3t prowess over tlio camp-fire.
The noise of the skirmish tilled the
air as the mother went to tho window,
Across the fields, where the river usual
ly shone like a silver and azure ribbon,
there was a great cloud of dust and
smoke, that shut the horrid desecration
of a familiar scene from her sight.
'Poor creatures! Ah ine, poor boys!"
she sighed. "How many hearts of those
who can only watch and pray at homo
will bleed for thlsl"
Then she added, more loudly, "YVe
will put the 'chicken' away, children,
till we see if anybody will need It mora
than wo do."
It was long since the little girls had
tasted meat, and their vigorous young
appetites had been singing happy little
songs of anticipation about Old Ben for
two days.
They looked wistfully from tho cloud
of battle across the fields, to the stow
pan, and then Jeanuctto said, hope
fully: "P'raps they'll bring somebody here
who isu't quite killed, but too much
killed to care for Old Ben."
Just at twilight, when the deadly
clamor had been stilled for some hour?,
and only the south wind sang and cried
among the fragrant peach blossoms,
there came crawling to tho house a pale
creature In a uniform so dusty and
blood-stained that one could not tell if
it had been blue or gray.
Ills white lips could only move enough
to say, that having been wcuiidcd by
tho first volley of the sltlrintshlhc had
crawled away from tho tumult and hld
denjiichlnd a large rook In a r1e3ghbor
lug field, where he had lost conscious
ness till "ltnpo" had brought water and
revived him.
"Impo" was a dwarfed and cilppleJ
negro, whoso infirmities had kept him
from escaping to freedom as well as
from serving in the war.
It could bo no worse to die by the
hand of a vengeful rebel householder,
the wounded man had thought, than
alone amid the chill dews and under tho
unpltylng stars; so he had crept to their
and they could do with him what they
would,- He was a Union soldier, he
said, and ho would rather die than dis
own'tliathc had fallen while fighting
under the "old flag!"
Lato the nnxt night Jcannctte and
Annie were gnawing, for perhaps the
fiftieth time, two highly-polished dium
sticks. Thero could have been very lit
tle of the original flavor left to these
drumsticks, and even Old Ben's ghctt
Would never Imo recognized them by
tho sonse of smell as aportlon.of Ills
earthly habitation. Nevertheless, they.
were of value to those under-fed cbll
drcn, as magic wands wth which to
summon up unllmitnrl, entrancing vis
Ions of stewed jooster and delicious
gravy, that needed only salt to make It
fit for a king or President JJavls. '
It was evident that these little girls
were very patriotic, and that, above the
lofty charity to all men which their
mother's example tiiitght them, towered
the loo of their "Cause," fpr Annie
flourished her rooster-bone skyward,
with tho air of "millions for dclcnco,
but not ono cent for tribute," as she
hoard voices In the cl amber above, and
said;
"Ho ate only a spoonful of the gravy.
I'd go up &t;Ir3 this minute and give
him this, if he'd only hurrah for the
beautiful Stars and Bars,"
A low murmur of voices canjo from
tho room above. The wounded man
sceniod to be talking, with frequent
pauses of exhaustion. Sometimes thoto
pauses would be to long that the chil
dren would have thought the sick man
slept; did not their mother's toft voice
murmur till he spoke again.
"P'raps mamma's telling him 'bont
darling Arthur gono to tho war," talJ
one of tho children.
Just then tho feeble voice above wa
saying to the sweet, pitying face bent
over tho pillow:
"After I am dead, add to the letter
tha.t I died, praying tlm your boy may
never dlo without somo blessed han.1
and voice as tender .vs yours, to smooth
bis way down tho dark valley."
Tho next day tho d(i3 toldler was
burled under tho pink cloud of theycaeh
trees, and as the earth was thrown down
upon his onvhrouJod form, the mother's
tears flowed almost as if the dead were
her own son, rather than ono whose dy
ing breath had blossod the enemy's flag;
for alio knew that not many miles away
to the north, so near tho great battle
ground that Its horrible tumult often
reached her also, was the doad roan's
mother, with heart aching for her boy-i
"none to tho war."
"And she' does not know tint she hat
no son on earth, on I do not know btr
that these little girls are all that I hare I
left," she sobbel, as the last shovelful
of earth fell u:on the grave.
Months had gone by. The peich
blossoms had long ooUUen and covered
Live and Let Live."
PA SATURDAY, AUGUST 22 1885,
tho grave beneath, with a fleecy vcl the
color of a dawn-cloud.
Tho gravo Itself, not? that tho sum
mer winds had borne away Its fleecy
veil, was Ercon ur.d soft as velvet. Tho
children, with broken case-kulvc., had
cut turf from the fields and covered It
wUU caro, and watered H, till tho brok
en Rrasa-roQia had fastened themselves
Into tho carth.and covered it with thick,
glossy bjades, amid which a late Wtqr
cup or two sUono like stars,
At tho head of tho grave was 6 bit of
white pine that had onco been pinch's
moulding-board, but now, split In. two,
served to tell who slept beneath, Upon
It was scorched with ft hot Iron:
"Henry Leo, Co. A, Utb, Eeg. Perm.
Vols, Aged 24 years,"
While tho summer sunshine was
shimmering through the tremulous
loaves upon the quiet grave where slept
one for whom strife and tumult were
hushed forever, a great battle was rag
ing not very many miles to tho north.
From dawn to sunset the fair day
grew sick with the smell of powder, tho
groans of the dying, tfic hoomlng of
cannon, tho horror of brother killing
brother. The smoke and dust shut tho
valley, where the frightful carnage
raged, from the sight of those on the
hilltops, whp watched to see If friend or
foo prevailed.
That night over tho battle-field lan
terns wavered to and fro, as friend
sought friend that the overcrowded am
bulance had not yet carried to tho hos
pitals In the. rear.
In tho very centre of the vallcy,whcro
the front of the battle had raged, and
where the soaked earth was catpeted
with gray and blue, mixed inextricably
together, two officer! searched for a
friend who wore the blue with a silver
bar,
As they sought, a glimmer of the dim
lantern fell upon a whlto young face up
turned to tho starless sky, Lieut, "VI1J
Law tuisrcd a cry.
' 'Arthur Lasco 1' ' he exclaimed. "Pocr
boy, you here! and wearing the grey,
tool" he added, half angrily, even in
that moment.
Only a moan answered him.
"What can I do?" demanded "Will
Law, excitedly, of his fellow-officers, as
ho bant over the wounded boy. "I can
not leave him hero to die. He was my
frlendnd scliool-fcllow once."
Later two men knocked at a farm
house onj'h neighboring hill. They bore
between them a burden wrapped in a
United Siatos army cloak, but with no
uniform beneath.
: "Lieut. Law sent us here with this
boy and this note," they said td"tbc
lady who admitted them. The sad
faced womanrcwll ,
Lin Ait madam: tnts man was a
school f i lend of mine whom I loved.
Will you care for him as yoa would for
me, and not ask whether ho is with or
against us?" Wm. Law.
For days and nights in that modest
farm-house tho wounded rebel was
nursed and tended as if he had been
tho son of tho woman who dwelt there.
"I have given ono brave boy my
only one to this dreadful war," she
said to him, as she gently nursed him,
'and every sorrowing mother's son is
ray own for his sake. Only how could
you raise your hand against the dear old
flag?"
Ono day an orderly knocked at the
farm-honso door. Tho Invalid boy, not
yet nineteen, slowly recovering, was sit
ting wrapped in a woman's peignoir
(for nothing In tho world, pot even
gratitude to his nurse, could entrap him
Into wearing the blue) In a largo arm
chair, where through the open window
ho could sco tho "boylu bhio" as hoap-
proacnod
Ho turned oven paler than usual, and
his blue eyes wero troubled, for tho
thought cam a Into his mind that the
truth of his being a rebel, had somehow
been discovered, and that his guardian
angel, as ho called her who had nursed
him back to life, might in somo way
suffer for her loyalty to her heart, not'
withstanding her utuivcrving loyally to
her country.
But the orderly only brought a letter.
"It came from headquarters," he said,
"and has been some months in getting

How the poor mother walled as she
read that letter!
ine sympathizing rebel held her
hands In his, and sought with tender
words words to soften tho bitterness pf
a grief he did not yet understand.
"It Is tho last letter from my boy,'
6bo sobbed "piy poor boy, dead In tho
bouth, and burled by rebel hands! God
bless and protect the son of the inotljcf
whowroto itl" and she give tho letter
into the boy's thin hand.
As his eye ran ever It, be uttered an
exclamation,
"OJIrs. Lee," he cried, as he, tec,
wept over tho letter, "my mother burled
your boy with tears under the peh
treos In our cjrden. You brought my
mother's boy out from tho jaws of
doath!" and they mingled their tears
together.
And vet thcto two sons ol thoto two

Wo werq winding down ono of tho
mountain roads of Tennessee In a cart
drawn by a mule, Tho land wai barren,

by v,o camo to a tutn In. tho rosd where
thcro was a trough to water hcrsoa r.r.d
a cabin of a settler The cabin tom tliQ
poorest of all end nothing around It
Indicated that iho owner made any
attempt to cultlvat? the soil. Wo reach
ed tho place Ju3t (n time to witness a
tableau, A woman, poorly dressed and
her face bearing tho look of ceo who
had seen much worry and suffering,
stood near the trough and a sstche)
filled with clothing sat on the ground
beside her. Five feet away stood her
husband, a burly, tough-faced nmun
tainccr, cud he held a switch In his
hand, Neither minded us as wc drove
up and It was full a rulnulo before tho
husband said:
"JIary, I'll wollopyol"
"Jim, yo dasn'tt" sho replied.
"Mary, you can't leave me nohow!"
"Jim, I'm gwlne todolt. I've starved
an' suffered till I'm clean gone. I'm
going home."
"Mary, If you don't take up that
satchel and march. In I'll wollop yegood
and stout!"
Thcro were two of us besides tho
driver. The4" woman looked up and
scanned our faces, as If to judge how far
shn might count on cur help, and tho
driver said:
"Taln't rulable for etrangerto raisin,
Mary; and Jim's got a knife and would
kill somebody, Better go In,"
"Never 1" she hissed,
"If you don't," said tho husband, 3
he came a stcn nearer, I'll make the fur
fly. Take thatl"
With a swish ho brought tho switch
down across her shoulders nnd raisod it
asain ho stood stock for a minute
and looked him In tho eye, and then
Yalkad Into the hovel.
'Eayther peart, but the gad will curoj
herl" grinned tho husband, .13 ho drew
the switch through his fingers.
His triumph was short lived. In sixty
seconds Mary reappeared. -She had the
mountaineer's heavy tide In her hand,
ana as sho camo out sue raised it on a
lino with the xrmn's heart,
"Jim, I want yougitl"
"No-o!"
'Sartlnl"
.'Shoo! Can't do Itl"
Clink! Clink!;
"Mary, what yer gwlne tcr do?"
"Kill yo like a volf in ycr tracks If yc
don't walk away,"
"Wbar to?"
"lOboay kcers, uosumwhar keep
goin' don't never come hack! Hurry
up, fur I'm going down on the stage!"
lie looked into her eyes and saw tho
change. Poverty and brutality had
come to an end, I.pvc had turned to
disgust, and In place of fet.r was such
bravery as he would not have looked for
for In a man 011 the road. Ho saw
"shoot" In her eyes, but he stljl hcsl
tatod,
"Mary, dropthatrlfle!" ho whispered.
"Jim, git I If you aro here when I've

llo began backing away. When be

walked. When ho had gono ono huridrod
he halted, wheeled about and, altera
longtime, muttered: "Wall, by gosh!
Mury, let's make up!"
"Keep a-glttin', Jim," sho replied, as
bho still covered him with the rifle.
In live minutes he was put of sight up
the road. Tho woman placed the gun
and satchel In the cart, walked into the
hovol to be gono two minutes and when
she camo back to tho cart and took a
seat with us flanus were creeping
through a hundred crevices between tho
dry logs, Without a word sho climbed
in and only onco during the fivc-mila
ride did she utter a word. At a bend
In tho road sho looked back at a pyramid
