THE RELIEF 00-LirCENOVIT.
Oh, :hat last day in tucitnow fort I
tge hneta that it was the last.
That the enemy's /ine3 crept cantionaly
And tho end was coming fast.
To yield to that foe was worse than death,
And the men and we all worked on;
It wns one day mure of smoke and roar,
And then It would all bodone.
There was ono of u 3, a corporals wife,
A fair, young, gentle thing, •
Wasted with fever in the siege,
And her mind was wandering.
She lay on the ground, In hor Etootthh
And I took her bend on my knee ;
"When ray father comes kerne frie the planet," shisaid,
"Oh I then pleas waukon me,"
She slept ilke a child on her father's floor.
In the flocking of wood•btne evade,
When the hone-dog sprawls by the open door,
And the mother's wheel is staid.
It was smoke and roar and powder stench,
And hopelessly waiting for death;
And the soldier's wife, likes fnll•tired child,
Seemed scarce to draw her breath.
I sank to sleep, and I had my dream
Of an English village lane
And wall and garden —but ono wild scream
Brought me back to the roar moin.
There Jessie Brown stood listening
Till a Budd• n gladness broke
All over her face, and she caught my hand
And drew me near as she sp,tke:--
"The Highlanders! oh! dinna ye haat
The slogan far aural
The McGregors I oh! I ken it %keel ;
It's the grandest o' them a'
"God bless thee, bonny Highlanders I
We're saved I we're saved l" shoaled,
And fell on her knees; and thanks to Glad
Flowed forth like a full flood•tide.
Along the battery-flue her cry
Ilan fallen among the men,
And they started back—they were than) to die,
But was life no near them then?
They listened for life; the rattling fire
Far off, and the far off roar,
Were all; and the colonel shook his head,
And they turned to their guile once more
But Jessie said, "The slogan's done,
But dinna ye hear it noo,
The campkll's are comire 1 It's no a dream,
Oureuccurs hae broken through!"
We heard the roar and the rattle afar,
But the pipes we could not hear;
So the men plied their work or hopeless wax.
And knew that the end was 'near.
It was not long ere it made its way—
A shrilling, ceaseless souud;
It was no noise from the strife afar,
Or the sappers under ground.
It war the pipes of the Highlanders!
And now they played Acid Lang Syne;
It came to our men like the voice of God,
And they shouted along the line.
And they wopt and shook ono another's hands,
And the women sobbed to a crowd;
A ad every one knelt down where ho stood,
And we all thanked God aloud.
That happy time; when wa welcomed them,
The men put Jessie &rat;
Aud the general gave her his bald, ar4 cheers
Like a storm, from the soldiers burst.
And the pipers' ribbons and tartans atreamatt.
Marching round and round our line;
And our joyful cheers were broken with tears,
As tee pipes played Auld Lang Syne.
The Chinese Feast of Lanterns.
At the commencement 01 the Chinese year,
about the end of February, the people hold their
great holiday and festival of the Feist of Lan
terns. The courts of law are closed, all business
is stopped, and the people do nothing bat make
and receive presents, and give themselves up to
rejoicing. The smaller mandarins pay visits of
respect to their superiors, children to their
fathers, and servants CO their masters; the very
poorest of the poor don the best dresses they can
buy or borrow, and think of nothing but visiting
each other, performing plays, telling stories, and
feasting. ,
Eveiy house in the cities, and every boat on
the canals and rivers of their vast empire, is
hung about with hundreds of millions of painted
lanterns, and at night the most costly and in
genious,fire works are let off for the amusement
of the People; indeed, the expenditure of time
and money is so great, and the mirth, joy and
pleasure so general, that no great national festi
val in the world can be compared with the great
festival of the Feast of Lanterns.
Of the origin of this festival the Chinese
tell several interesting stories, one of which La
that—
"There was once a great mandarin who had a
most beautiful dauphter, and one day, as she was
walking by the aide of a river, she fell In and
was drowned. The afflicted father with. his
family and servants ran to the river, and, that
they might be better able to find the body,
caused a great number of lanterns to have lights
put in them. All the inhabitants of the.plaoe
thronged after him with lighted torches,,and, al
though they could not find the body, the man
darin was 60 much pleased with the anxiety of
the people to help him, that he ordered them to
go the next year , with their lanterns, tuidlnake
the same search, and so on each year, until it
became an established custom."
Another story is—
" That about three thousand years ago, there
lived an Emperor of China named Kio, who, al
though very clever and a great hero, was given
to pleasure and wickedness of all kinds; and,
moreover, so extravagant with the people's
money, that, out of a mere whim, ho built an
immense tower of diamonds and pearls, and, all
the most costly gems he could buy or steal,•tind
filled a bath—large enough to hold three thou
sand people—with the most expensive wine.
Now, as some of his best friends even thought
this was going a little too far, they tried to per
suade him to become more moderate; but he did
not seem to, care about their advice, and,mcre
over ordered them all to be . put to death, which
of °bane prevented,people from being 'tOir free
with their advice for the tuture ; after whioli he
became more extravagant in his wishes, for, not
contented with a castle built of precious stones
insttrad-of bricks, and gold and silver instead of
iron .and wood, be wanted to find .out. how : to
make life lOnger—he, in fact, wanted to cut .off
Diath's.'head. To do this he made iriangiinents
to forget 'that there were any changes of maims,
either, of years, days, or nights, And commenced
by bbilding a palace in which the light of day
should never be seen; and, instead ciente sun,
he ordered, as an improvement, a vast number of
lanterns tabs hung up, and kept lighted' night
and clay.
"He then shut himself up with his queen, and
remained 'there till the people could not bear
the hardships which they had to undergodu con
sequence of Kio'e extravagance, and determined
to let a little daylight into the palatie, and so
stormed and pulled it dOwn, sendiniKiO to get
his.living by begging. As Kio had not been
brough%up to that tine of businees, he aeon died
of starvation ; and to preserve the memory-of t i ke
tyratie4 defeat and death, and as a slight film to
succeeding emperors, the people hung Mit lan
terns itt.every one of their cities every year on
the same day till it became a national festivity."
