THE PARTING,
I've said a thousand times my heart,
With all its woe, might love no more—
That memory ne'er from life could part,
Nor love e'er haunt my soul's darkshore ;
Yet now I know the ashes gray
But waited, ere they sprung to flame,
Until thy hand should tune my heart
To breathe forever thy dear name.
Yes, now I know the years that tied
And left my heart a lonely thing,
Ilut vanished that, from ashes dead,
A fairer bloom might spring.
If I might tell thee all I feel,
And paint the rainbows in my heart,
Then thou would'st know, for woe or weal,
I still am thine where'er thou art
If I might pluck the fadeless bloom
That blossoms in my life for thee,
To light thy earth-life's weary gloom,
I'd do it though 'twere death to me.
If all t e joys I've lost or known,
If all the bliss I've hoped might be,
If all the maddening raptures flown
Were mine, I'd gam them all to thee!
If rod • crowned earth and star gemmed sky
Their rarest treasures gave to me,
And joy would come if I should die,
I'd give them all and life to thee.
I try to bush my pleading heart,
And quell the rising memories there,
To let thee quietly depart,
And reason triumph o'er despair.
And yet a sad, wild, anguished moan
Breaks like a maddened ocean wave.
A voice that sighs "Alone—alone
With memory and a hidden grave."
A voice of love across the hush
Of woe that locks my shaded breast -
A tiny plant no storms may crush,
A flower that breathes of peace and rest
Forever love's fair fadeless bloom
Across my weary life will-creep,
A star amid fate's cruel gloom,
Until they lay me down to sleep.
Ah ! it were madness now to dream
Of joys that gild the vanished past,
or hopes that shed a transient gleam
Too bright, too beautiful to last.
For oh I the smiles of fate have flown,
And I must say farewell to thee—
Must hush my wrung heart's pleading moan,
And turn me back to misery I
So memory, by night and day,
Falls cold and ceaseless on my heart,
Nor wears the throbbing pulse away,
But whispers e'er how dear thou art !
And rings forever through my brain
A mingled song of hope and fear,
A note of joy, a cry of pain,
A smile of bliss, a scalding tear ;
And over thus till life bath past,
And ptilseless lie my heart and brain,
Thy love a radiant gleams hall cast
Across this parting's bitter pain.
A meteor o'er my life's dark sky,
A blossom on a desert place,
Will be the inemmy of thine eye—
The memory of thy worshipped face.
And when fifes weary task is done,
Its pleasures and its sorrows o'er,
When earth is past and heaven is won,
VII be thine own for evermore!
ar A. very sharp thing occurred some
time since in Philadelphia, in which
the Rev. Dr. Hodgson took au unenvi
able part. The story is that a meeting
DP iii,:bodists was held in Philadelphia,
some time since, „,10 the speeches be
ing patriotic, a good deal wa ;,:zaid about
the Plag, &c. The Rev. Dr. „Hoaglei:
being present was seriously annoyed at
all this; and getting the floor, ho sold
be was opposed to all this talk about
Ae Flag, the Stars and Stripes, &c.
Bev. ,Wm. Barnes rose promptly when
he remark was made and said "I never
knew an Englishman that was not op-
Visaed 'to the Stars and Stripee 1" The
meeting was Convulsed with laughter,
and the Divinity Doctor subsided.

( THE INSULT.
General Waring strode up and down
stiffly biting his lips, working his figkers
and clenching his teeth from time to
time. His eyes were fixed etaringly up
on the ground, breath was_ steniorous,
his face was flushed almost - purple, and
it was evident, in a word, that he was
suffering a paroxysm of wrath.
From the glances that the general
cast about him occasionally, it seemed
that he expected some one. Very soon
a tall, grave-looking man scrupulously
neat and military in his bearing and at
tire, appeared. The general took no
notice of his salute, but blurted out, im
petously :
"Colonel Carey, your regiment left its
post, on the railroad, yesterday, against
my order, and lost fifty-thousand dollars
worth of stores for us. Why was that,
sir ?"
"I know notbing about it, general.—
I was away the whole time, on engineer
service. Lieutenant Colonel Carter
was in command."
"Carter? I don't know—let me see—
why, , he's dead."
"Carter dead ?"
"Yes. Who is your major ?"
"Major Godfrey."
"Ali I Send him bore."
Colonel Carey, not altogether pleased
with the interview, took his time, and
finally sent edjutant to find out who
commanded the regiment, the day pre
vious. Sure enough„ the lieutenant
colonel had been killed in the early
morning, and the command had devolv
ed upon Major Godfrey, quite a young
man. The - Colonel informed this officer
that General Waring wished to see
him, hinted that there were charges to
be made.
"Keep your temper," said be, "and
don't be bullied. You know .what you
may expect."
Major Godfrey sought the presence of
the irate general, and stood some mo
ments awaiting his word.
"Who are you !" asked Waring, pre
coiving that the young man was await-
"Godfrey, sir; Major of the Six
teenth."
"0 ! You are the man that ran away
from the supply-depot yesterday.
shall have you cashiered, sir. I want no
cowards at the head of my regiments."
Major Godfrey measured his superior
officer from head to foot with a cold, ex
pressionless stare—about the most im
pertinent thing one can do, in a quiet
way. Then, shrugging his broad, man
ly baek full on the astonished comman
der, and walked away without a single
word of reply.
The general of the division in which
was General Waring's brigade; was a
very different sort of person from that
ofricer, and Major Godfrey knew him
personally. He went to the headquar
ters, then, and stated, in brief, that
Waring had forgotton himself so far as
to offer him an irretrievable insult.
"I cannot serve longer in a position
from which my superior officer has
threatened to have me cashiered," he
said ; "but I am particularly desirous
of taking part in all the actions that
may occur here on the peninsula.
.If
you can give me a temporary command
—I don't care how humble—l will gu
arantee that no disgrace shall come of
it. The reason why I withdrew the
16th Regiment from the post assigned
it by General Waring, was that 'Gener
al McClellan himself ordered it."
"Why did you not explain that to
General Waring 7"
"His words were such as no gentleman
could reply to."
A captaincy in another regiment was
offered to the major, and it was also
promised that a full investigation should
be made into the affair.
This was on the fourth day of the pro
tracted battle that attend the transfer
of the Army of the Potomac from the
Cthiaaho Min; to the James River.—
There had been some gallant fighting
every day, and the army was thir.necl
and weary, but undaunted. When the
line of battle was formed, on the follow
ing morning. Major Godfrey found
himself put in command of a handful of
heroes, gathered from several annihila
ted companies, and formed into a new
one.
As he walked down this line of incon
gruously-assorted men, soiled, grimed,
and in many oases wounded, he spoke a
few stirring words.
"Boys," he said, sternly, "you look
like fighters, and fighters are just what
1 want. I shall not ask you to cnt away
for me anywhere ; but I shall ask you to
follow me whereyer I choose to lead
you. And I shall lead you into some

jolly places. If you don't follow*l'll
go alone I"
A cheer was the response to' this ad
dress, for the men saw that their cap
tain was in earnest—that he had a din.
culty with destiny. 'And the only men:
who do anything altogether' well, wheth-
er it be singing,' or preaching, or what
not, are the ones who , are working out a
mighty quarrel with fate.
The battle came on later this fifth day
than on the previous mornings, for both
armies were severely harrassed and
Wearied by repeated attack, repulse,
attack, and retreat, The lines were•not
so firm and steady as on the first day,
and some regiments showed great gaps,
that told most eloquently of the courage
and determination with which they had
met the enemy.
Still, when the ball was fairly opened
and the cannonade-music began to make
the air tremble and collapse at every
moment, the tired soldiery plucked up a
new energy, and fought—pardon me the
little egotism—as I believe only Ame
ricans can fight, North and South.
Captain Godfrey kept his word. He
did lead his men, and "into some jolly
places." He seemed to think that he
had command of a division instead of a
company, and could therefore, cope with
almost any odds. The enemy, astonish
ed by the reckless brilliancy of his char
ges, could but think that he was suppor
ted by a powerful force, and often fell
back when they might have surrounded
the entire company.
During one of these savage onslaughts
a cavalry-sabre happened to alight upon
the young officer's forehead, knocking off
his cap and.leaving a fine crimson trench
from his hair to his eye-brow. After
this, he looked more like the men- he
led. They were all blood, and dust
and powder grime ; and when they came
crushing down, in close order, with bay
onets fixed, called on by their dauntless
leader, coatless, hatless, with a bloody
handkerchief upon his head, and his
sword dropping gore as- he waved on
the charge, it was not so strange that
the foe gave way, even when they out
numbered this desperate band five to
one I
The colonel of the regiment in which
Godfrey was detailed to serve, was de
lighted. He could not nos what fault,
General Waring could have found with
such an officer, and spoke many encour
aging words to the young man.
"If he ever comes nut of this," said
he, "he will be set up two or three pegs
higher at once; if lam ajudge. He
means fight; and that is the kind of a
man we want."
Thera was some confusion, for a few
minutes, on the right of the regiment,
and the men evinced a tendency to a
fall back, that, to do them justice, was
perfectly natural. The Confederates had
advanced their lines, and a battery of
twelve pounder field guns had been so
placed as to sweep, diagonally, the
ground occupied by the regiment, while
a heavy body of infantry, concealed in a
woody ravine, kept up a murderous
crossfire of musketry.
The result of the storm of death; the
two currents of which intersected just
at the right of the line, was-frightful,
and for a moment a panic seemed inevi
table.
In the confusion, • when the different
companies lost their order, and parties
of stragglers began wandering to the
rear, Captain Godfrey drew up his men
in Position, and stepped out to the front.
"Who will go :to - glory with me, now?"
he asked, pointing to the battery with
his bloody sword. "Whoever isn't afraid
come on ! If you .won't follow, I shall
have to take that battery alone'!" -
This magnificent, price of hyperbole
must have •been hkard to be appreciated.
The whole scene agreed with.its tenor.
A field covered with ghastly corpses
and wounded men; a wreck of arms
and equipage scattered everywhere,; a
smoky, stanching atmosphere, quivering
and pierced by the terrible galls and
cries of the dying, the awful scream of
wounded horses, the horrible concus
sion of heavy cannon incessantly fired,
and the fierce howl of a thousand shot
and shell; a disordered and broken host
of men, trembling on the verge of flight,
with alders galoping hither and thither
cursing, praying, threatening, and im
ploring:by turns—this was the exagger
ated and wonderful background to the
picture. In front, amid the wreck, and
ruin, and pools of gore, and golgotha
piles of dead, a company of the sixty c.!
seventy heroes, without coats, often
without shirts, without knapsacks, with
out a flag; with 'uniforms 9f -half-a-daz
en patterns; and arms as ill-assorted ;
muddy, dusty, bloody, bruised, /blacken-
ed, lowering ofaye and - defiant' of lips ;
and before them all, the tall, manly fig
.
ure of their leader, with his,tUdetOvered
with blood froM the' bintiaged'
on his' fcireliead, his .biciad chest isPoied;
-his sleeves- rolled up,' and his hands'
arms, legs, and feet, imbuded and clot;
ed with gore like, dose. of a - butcher,.
waving that crimson blade, and roaring
forth his determination,; too impossible
for a threat and too splendid fora.boast
—that was the situation. •
Without waiting for a murmur of as
sent. from , his men; this mad creature
cried : "Now then I Double quick.!
I' Charge!," and. ran forward at full, speed
toward the battery that opened its
"deathful, grinning mouths" at short
intervals, to omit tongues of Aro and
fron that licked np men, and horses, and
trees alike. The scattering regiment
saw the charge and paused. Several
companies, not yet disordered; got into
line and followed, but -Godfrey and his
command were-already far in advance.
Flame and fury whirled down in red
hot sheets of destruction from the bat
tery; thick,smoke and darkness 'lurked
behind. It was an inky' cloud, stifling
and heaiy, but charged with the splen
dors and horrors of pandemonium. The
air gaped and closed with terrific blows
-allot, and the ground trembled and
twinced at the awfal detonations.—
Lights gleamed, and glared, and scorch
ed the very eye-balls of those who look
ed. All was vague and- bewildering
with dizzy noises, and roaring as of a
million wheels-and voices, and the brain
soon got befogged and dazed by the aw
ful magnificence of •the ascent into the
teeth of the guns that shouted defiance,
.and leaped back living foes.
Into the centre of this hell went Cap
tain Godfrey, crying as he ran : •
"I was called a coward, yesterday,
boys ! what do you think of this ?"
As the devoted remnant of the com
pany—for forty - men reached the front
of the battery—came exactly before the
guns, a sudden discharge of grapeshot
roared along the hill, breast high, and a
storm of musketry" followed. The few
companies that had accepted the exam
ple of the first, replied by a volley as
they charged within a few moments
the bill was covered with a mass of
determined mun, pouring up in incroas
ing numbers, stretching down to the
ravine beyond, where the enemy -bad al.
ready began to waver. The ice was
broken the path was. shown by Captain
Godfrey's men, and the regiment had
followed, unable to stand still and see
such -a deed •of`daring done.
The battery -withdrawn with-the mar
velous speed and ad - dress, but the infan
try that had supported was a successful
repulse, and due entirely to the unflinch
ing heroism of thp little band_ that led.
And that
,band!, I know nothing of
it, save that Godfrey's body was found,
where the contra of - the battery bad
been. EIS sword, still grasped in his
hand, was through an artilloryruan's ribs,
and,a rdusket had.gone into his own
Chest, just over ',the heart, There were
seventeen other wounds upon him, but
that °whined him. As . for hit men,
the hill was as an old sergeant said,,
"carpeted. with corpses".; I suppose
their's were a portion of the carpet.
