The loldler'a Blory. ,
The following specimen of martial poetry,
the heat that we have aean for many a day, we
copy from the Boaton Daily Time. It is from
the pen of Mr. F. A. Durivage, a poet of some
celebrity, tire roductrcm fa -edijre, highly
to, to its author, and telle the atory of old Rough
and Ready's character and vrctorie rn spirit.
tliYring and truly harmonious rhymes 0
'Twas in the trench at Vera Cruz,
A f roup of soldier lays
Weary and worn with working
At the guns the livelong day,
Their faces were begrimed with sand
And soot from shot and shell
Explodinf in the crumbling earth,
For fast the missile fell.
Vet cheerily tty halted,
For their hearts with hope best high,
And they knew the hour of victory
Was surely drawing nigh. -There
came a war-worn soldier,
To mingle with th reit
They bade him welcome to their cheer,
And gave him of the best.
He'd served with General Taylor,
And they acked bim of the man
Who first and last hart M the way
To victory in the van ;
On the winding Rio Grande,
On the 6th and 9th of May,
Through Buena Vista's carnage
And the storm of Monterey.
"I knew him first," the soldier said
"Among the Everglade,
When are gave the aavage red-akina
Our hayoneta and our blades.
I think I hear bis cheerful voice :
On', column! steady! steady ?
So hardy and so prompt was he,
We called him Rovgh nnd Ready !
"He rode upon an old white horse,
And wore a brown aurtout
Sut oftener, when the ground waa deep,
He trudged with ua on foot,
The man frnm whose canteen be drank,
Was envied and thought lucky ;
He had the brave and kind good heart
That honored old Kentucky.
"By wounds outworn, 1 left the field (
.But when a new campaign
Against another foe commenced,
I joined the ranks again.
'Twas fun alive, boys, once again
To hear the sabre's clank, .
To tee old Rough and Ready ride
His white horse on oar dank.
"At Palo Alto, comrades there
He gave us vmrk to do,
And o'er La Palma'i sulphury amoke
His flag triumphant flew.
When from the Are hi aid-de-camp
Would have the thier relit,
Old Rough and Ready merely said,
We'll ride little nigher.'
"You should bave seen the brave old boy
In the streets of Monterey--Wben
the cannon swept the platat
How he sternly stood at bay.
When shell, and grape, and cannon ball
On their deadly errand Went :
The General seemed a man of steel,
And Are his element.
"And if a wounded soldier
In the street of Monterey,
Or friend pr foe looked up to bim
Imploring, whence he lay,
He stooped to wipe the drops of pain,
. That dimmed the marble brow,
Or proffered from hia own canteen
A drink aee him now.
"At red Been Vista
.. Mf part I eooid not hear- -
But they tH me that the brown aurtout
And old white heraa were there.
And well do 1 believe it,
For the fee stood four to one,
And without old Rough and Ready
How had the fight been won !
"I've Worn the sargent'a chsVren
And! may wear it ytt
But old Rough and Ready tells me
I shall wear the epaulette
But in the tank or out of them, '
To him I'll still prove steady,
And long a I've a tongue to talk,
Speak out for Koueh and Ready !'
i
So ipake the war-wua ioldir
,. To hia eororadsa e thsy Isy ,
Beneath the breastwork, where they'd aervad
t Tb Jan th livelong dsy (
And thir sleepiness and weariness
. Jt (airly chased away,,,,
