ALL yUIET ALONG THE POTOMAC TO NIGHT
The following poetical gem we copy from a
W estorn paper. The original was found ia the
pocket of a volunteer who died in camp on the
Potomac;
•‘All 4uiet along the Potomac,” they say,
“Except now and then a stray picket
!■’ shot, as he walks on his beat to and fro,
By a rifleman hid in Ihe thicket . ’
Tis nothing—private or two, now and lhet>,
Will not count in the news of the battle
Not an officer lost—only one of the men —
Moaning oiu, all alone, the death rattle.
.All quiet along the Potomac to-night.
Where the soldiers lie peacefully dreaming;
Their tents in the rays of the’clear autumn moon.
Or the light of the watchtires, are gleaming,
A tremulous 9ighl as the gentle night wind
Through the forest leaves slowly ia creeping;
While Ihe stars up above, with their glittering eyes,
Keep guard—for Ihe army is sleeping.
There's only the sound of the lone sentry’s tread.
As he tramps from the rock to the fountain,
.■\nd thinks of the two on the low trundle bed.
Far away in the cot on the mountain;
His musket falls slack, his face dark and grim.
Grows gentle with memories tender,
,\s he mutters a prayer for the children asle«p—
For their mother, may Heaven defend her!
The moon seems to shine as brightly as (hen.
That night when the love yet unspoken
Leaped up to his P.ps, and when low murmured tows,
Were pledged, to be ever unbroken;
Then drawing his sleeve roughly over his eyes.
He dashes off tears that are welling.
And gathers his gun close up to its place.
As if to keep down the heart swelling.
He passes the fountain, the blasted pine tree.
The footstep is lagging and weary.
Yet onward he goes through the broad belt of light.
Toward the shades of a forest bo dreary.
HarkI Was it the night wind that rustled the leaves*
Was it the moonlight so wondrously flashing*
It looked like a rifle—“Ha!—Mary, good bye!"
And (he life blood is ebbing and plashing.
All quiet along (he Potomac to-night.
No sound, save the rush of the river:
While soft falls the dew on the face of the dead—
The picket’s off duty, forever.
Testi of Couraqe.—W’’e have not yet seen note
made of the striking and gratifying fact that no
instance ha.s occurred during the war in which
the enemy have charged and captured a Southern
field battery. All the guns they have taken have
been those which we abandoned in consequence
of their being dismounted, or the horses being
killed, or which have been surrendered with a
capitulating force. It is a fact that the enemy
have never charged and captured a Southern bat
tery in position.
On the other hand, the capture of the enemy’s
batteries in position is a feat of constant repetition.
If the enemy advance a battery in line during a
battle, the chances are more than even that they
will be “our guns” in about the length of time
necessary for our dashing infantry to pass the in
tervening spacc at the pas fie charge. It was so
at Manassa.s, at Shiloh, at W”illiamsburg, at Seven
Pines, at (’ross Keys, at Elkhorn, at Oak Hills,
nt Yalverde. In each and all of these fierce con
flicts our men charged and took nearly every bat
tery that was placed in line as if it were a frolic,
taking the iron hail of the guns in their faces, up
to the very muzzles, and killing, capturing or
routing the gunners.
Croahtrs and Critics.—Croaking and criticism
have come to be the confirmed habits of quite a
large class of our people. This cla.ss is composed
of men who have done little or nothing for our
country’s cau.se. They are the non-combatants,
who, safe in their own persons, assume to them
selves the prerogative of criticising the actions of
our ablest Generals and bravest soldiers, and of
grumbling at every thing that is done. Nothing
can be done to please these dainty gentlemen.
They complain when the army does’nt fight and
when it does fight—when defeated and when
victorious. In flie estimation of these men there
is no reverse that could not have been averted;
no victory that could not have been improved.
Everything goes wrong. W'hen we win a battle,
instead of thanking God and our brave soldiers,
they put on gloomy faces, and harangue all who
will listen to them about the number of our killed
and wounded. These evil spirits deserve a
severer punishment than mere rebuke. Many of
them, it is suspected, are anything but well wish
ers to our cause.—Richmond Whig.
The Yankee and the Almighty Dollar.—
Among the thousands of Yankee letters picked up
on the recent battle-field the gist and burden of
the majority has been money. In every instance
where the letter is from parent to child, its whole
object seems to have been to impress upon “Dear
.John or W’^illiam” the importance of “saving hia
money.” To this consta;tt inculcation, which is
begun in infancy, may be ascribed the exorbitant
estimation in which money comes to be held by
the full-grown .Jonath ui. A Yankee of thirty
regards money not as the means of happiness but
a.s the great end and object of life. As an evi
dence of this we will mention an incident of the
battle of Cold Harbor: A Yankee, who had just
had both of his eyes torn out by a musket ball, was
led to our rear and deposited near one of our bat
teries then unengaged. The fellow grievously
bemoaned his hard fate. He said he “would not
have minded being shot through his arm or leg,
but to lose his sight forever was too hard; he
would not have had it to have happened for twenty-
five. dollars!”—Richmond Exaviiner.
The Missing Scout.—We question if the annals
of civilized warfare or savage barbarism can pre
sent the counterpart of Yankee ferocity in the pre
sent war. An authentic tale has lately come to
our knowledge which goes very far to confirm the
a.ssertion. Charles Dillon, of company I, 12th
Mississippi, when stationed at Manassas, was a
member of a company formed by Ewell as a scout
ing corps, and when out one day in quest of the
enemy, was mortally wounded through the lungs
by a sfjuad of Yankee cavalry. After robbing
his person of all the valuables and papers, they
proceeded to Alexandria. But when they reached
the latter place they found out that poor Dillon
was a scout, and as a reward wa.s offered for the
heads of all such by the Yankee Government,
they ha.stened back, and while life was not extinct
they deliberately severed his head from his body
and carried it in triumph to obtain the promised
reward. Comment is unnecessary.
